I’m a wave in the ocean,
You’re a tree in the orchard
I’m out like I’m under,
Stuck deep in your soil
From my chest, to my head,
To the breath on your neck,
Silhouettes and regrets
Now replace you instead
Spit me out
Do you feel empty?
‘Cause your whispers consume me
They grow deeper,
They shake me and they linger
I’m a renegade and a sinner
You’re a blue bird in the winter,
Disguising the way you hide
Like a sidewinder
You lack in conviction,
So suffer in silence
With self medication
And its sour elation
I’ve been muting the colours on my skin
I’ve been matching the distance that you bring
I fall asleep to the pressure,
That I can’t make this better,
‘Cause you won’t let me further in
Spit me out
You could’ve used some respect,
Instead you played with my head
And now I’ll never let you go,
I’m on the side of the fence you don’t call home
Sidewinder wake me in the dead of night
So you can take me to the place you hide.

Mess I Made
02:17
|

There’s gotta be a better way to let this be told,
Don’t know why you wanna stay when I act so cold
Drop my thoughts alone,
I never had my own,
‘Cause I’m lost inside,
I wanna fall into paradise
It’s killing me, killing me,
I got this far on my own
Just colour me, colour me,
I’m so afraid
Underneath all of the mess that I have made
I don’t wanna fade away, let it slip off my tongue
What’s another day awake with a twist in my lungs?
Drown in doubts alone, I’ve always had my own,
‘Cause I’m lost inside,
Someone take me home
Try to find my way around the honest answers
It’s killing me just living in the mess I made
I fell into a river of all my own disasters and
Wash away the worst and leave me clean.

Push
03:40
|

I thought we had a good thing going,
I never thought you’d be so cunning
Lightening in a dark room, honey,
Fine until it hits your body
I’m stuck in the living room,
Pace through my thoughts of you
There’s fire in the way you choose
To let your heavy heart stay bruised
As I carry it home with me,
And the weight of everything
Push on my cold lungs and break me swiftly,
Just take what you want, but I won’t make it easy
Take what you want from me,
I’m sure I made it easy, not being what you needed
Say what you want, you always do
Nothing new
You couldn’t leave your words uncovered,
I never thought you’d leave so sudden
Underneath the roof we’re flooding,
Currents wrap around our bodies
And it kept me deceptive
To a bed dipped in poison
Just take what you want, but I won’t make it easy
I’m sick of waiting,
Just contemplating our past mistakes
And misguided chase scenes
My mind is made up, enough is enough
So take what you want.

Coffee At Midnight
03:44
|

I don’t wanna say goodbye,
Can we just say goodnight?
Tell me how to change your mind
Over coffee at midnight
Sink into my trust again, keep me un-composed,
Teach me how to love again, thinking of yourself,
‘Cause patience is poison just watching you come and go,
I guess there’s no use in hanging around
Words you’re spitting out, something I can live without,
At least you can be happy now
I don’t wanna say goodbye
Can we just say goodnight?
Tell me how to change your mind
Over coffee at midnight
If you’re gonna say goodbye,
Would it be alright?
If only I could change your mind
Over coffee at midnight
If you feel that lonely now, tell me that you don’t,
I didn’t put my feet to concrete just for you to call me home,
Not sorry if you miss me now, it’s not my fault that we hit the ground,
If you’re no damn good for my mental health
There’s no use in hanging around
So I’ll keep pretending like everything’s fine,
Like we’re saying goodnight and not our goodbyes,
Now it’s too late,
I don’t wanna walk away, but I’m not just gonna sit and wait.

Chemicals
03:28
|

The chemicals swirl inside of my head,
I never lost sight of what I wanted,
I just had a change of plan,
I hope you understand
Put yourself inside of my shoes
And fit the piece I’m forced to mould to,
It’d be such a waste,
So fuck your empty space
Tell me I’m wrong
Am I pressing on your thoughts again?
I’m already gone
So don’t get used to me saying I’m sorry
‘Cause I’m too busy feelin’ alright,
I don’t owe you anything
Why do you separate my skin?
I’m in amongst the doubt,
But at least I can say I gave my everything,
If you won’t even hear me out, then don’t ask why
(Don’t waste my time)
Tug on everything that I have,
Discomposure is my best friend,
Just when I’m wrapped so safe,
It forces things to change,
I’ll take pleasure over pressure,
Thicker skin in dirty weather,
Go and pick apart the things we do,
But it’ll never mend your broken bad mood
The chemicals swirl inside my head,
Through static nerves that don’t connect,
If this grey matter is all we get
I’ll do everything that I can
To make sure chemicals will react
And help myself to stay in tact,
If this grey matter is all we get
Then I don’t wanna waste it on your shallow breath.
