Detached

Do you mind if I stop by
Another day another time
I can’t seem to face those eyes
I can’t stand to watch you die
Waste it all in a moment
Waste it all in just one moment.

Mutual Interest

I drove around all night because I couldn’t sit at home
I’m overthinking things you said
and reading too much into what you don’t
I won’t last another winter with this cold lonely apartment
All my friends say I should lighten up
but I’m only getting darker
Maybe I’d seem less selfish
With a mutual interest in progress
It seems that when I digress
It lacks a conscience
That keeps you stressed
So I’ll tangle my roots in your flesh and your bone
And make use of all the nutrients and call you my home
And if you feel abandoned when you are alone
Darling, please don’t forget
It takes some time and sunlight to grow
People change and I’ll admit I’m not immune
I’ve gotten colder and grown distant
I could say the same for you
I’m losing touch I’ve run out of my luck
I guess I wasn’t good enough
I’ll keep this trapped inside my head
And stapled in my skin
The sun goes down but it will rise again
That natural cycle gives me peace of mind
So I’m not up all night craving the warmth and the light
Shinning on my skin something we both miss.

Room To Grow

Well I won’t hold my breath
What did you expect when you left me for dead
You said it's for the best so I drove home instead
Of sleeping in your bed, it's you who left
This hole inside my chest
Do you feel at home
Are these walls surrounding you too close
Is there any room to grow
I haven’t slept in days
I think about the things I never say
I keep it to myself
I’ll lose my fucking mind if I don’t break the silence now
You act as if you’ve grown indifferent to the things I care about
If that's the case I’ll pack my shit and fade away
Do you feel at home
Are these walls surrounding you too close
Is there any room to grow
Do you feel alone
Dreams begin to fade as you lose hope
And the ability to cope
Is there any room to grow
So if I die before I wake
I want my gravestone to say
I made the most of my days
On a pale blue dot in space.

Cut Me Off
03:06

If I shed this dead weight
I could keep my head straight
And for once just relate to anyone but you
I could try so hard (to convince myself)
That I came so far (and drove through hell)
But I crashed my car (the day I drove with you)
(Cut me off from life to help me)
Keep me awake
I’m taking everything with me
Cause when I leave
You will be falling back to sleep
Set my pace
To get myself out of this place
When you wake
Your memories will be a waste
I’m always the first to run when it comes to getting something done
I admit that I’m not moving on from this
The harder I try it seems that less of it gets by for me
And I don’t know why that I can’t get this right
I just want to feel
I’ve wasted so much time
This can’t be real
This can’t be right.

Bleed

Thought I’d see you at the wake
But to my surprise, you weren’t even there
So I searched for my escape
I couldn’t find the words to say
Ebb and flow beneath the dirt
I never got a chance to make you bleed
Take it from me find a release
I still struggle every day
Just to maintain the life that I hate
You took everything from me
Leaving me with nothing
I probably look pathetic
Because I moved away and came right back
I hope I don’t regret it
I was lost between the sidewalk cracks
And I ran away so I could find a change of pace
And I can’t help to retrace the feeling
You built me up to be
Something that I hate
Feeling like a burden I can’t push these thoughts away
Faded out the only light and cast a shade of grey what’s left to do is fade
With a half collapsed lung
I spoke to you in rhyme
I haven’t got the time to talk
Because the shadows that you cast fade to grey
Gotta find that vibrance in my life.

Daydream
02:43
|

|
Suppressed inside my head
Feelings without explanation
Clouding any sight remaining I’m still trapped inside a daydream
Forgiving less in spite of it
Crawling inside of my skin
Messages you give are tangled and unfit
I often wonder where you’ve been
I’ve started talking less and sleeping in
I want to feel alive again
I want to rid you from my head
Learned how to balance myself
Without the help from you
Found some better health
I hope it gets me through
I’m hollowed out
Just a shell of my self doubt
You talk about
How you’re better off without me now.
