Sometimes in my head I dream back to back vignettes Of me in my death bed I know you don’t care My skin has changed from blue to red I’m taking my first breath As she sings Mend, again, again and again I can mend, again, again and again I can mend again, again and again I can mend She said “I’m your friend Again, I know what you meant. It’s hard to sit back watching everything end” I don’t think that we can just pretend I never said it all I still feel you there Basking In my vacant stare I know it wasn’t fair And though your face may change My broken bones will stay the same The all familiar pain As she sings Mend, again, again and again I can mend, again, again and again I can mend again, again and again I can mend She said I'm your friend Again, I know what you meant It's hard to sit back watching everything end I don't think that we can just pretend I never said it all Mend, again, again and again I can mend, again, again and again I can mend again, again and again I can mend She said I'm your friend Again, I know what you meant It's hard to sit back watching everything end I don't think that we can just pretend I never said it all Sway with me In time we’ll get better In time we’ll get better and.

Not Alone 02:52
I don’t think you know that you’re not alone Cut into the skin, carve into the bone I don’t wanna take up another headstone Cope until the day that you’re not alone Elevator shakes and I do too I’m sixteen lonely floors away from you From a dimly lit and half-home one bedroom Rehearsing all the lines that I’ll say to you like “Sorry that I woke up before you left I’m A broken man and I think you need a new love” Spouting words, I can’t contain But I’ll come back time and again I don’t think you know that you’re not alone Cut into the skin, carve into the bone I don’t wanna take up another headstone Cope until the day that you’re not alone It gets harder every day So, I’ve been looking at it each and every way A lasting feud with a beer can who I’ve been bleeding dry since twenty-two And it’s hard enough to breathe So, breathe in for me I don’t think you know that you’re not alone Cut into the skin, carve into the bone I don’t wanna take up another headstone Cope until the day that you’re not alone Elevator shakes and I do too I’m sixteen lonely floors away from you From a dimly lit and half-home one bedroom Rehearsing all the lines that I’ll say to you I’ll say to you Say to you I’ll say to you I don’t think you know that you’re not alone Cut into the skin, carve into the bone I don’t wanna take up another headstone Cope until the day that you’re not alone

You’ve got me looking in the rear-view mirror Cause I still get the feeling that you might be here Start to panic and I drive too fast And you can watch me flying off the overpass “You and me against the world” she said You and me we may as well be dead Maybe I can change Maybe I could say “Maybe I’m the bedrock in your way” I'm just food for your garden Buried under weight In the light of day Watch me decay I'm just food for your garden I'll occupy the same space they do With old family pets helping flowers bloom A safety coffin with sufficient room I quite like it down here, so I'll never move Maybe I can change Maybe I could say “Maybe I’m the bedrock in your way” I'm just food for your garden Buried under weight In the light of day Watch me decay I'm just food for your garden And down here we all sing I'll retire my human form And seep into the soil for the roots to gorge I'm as useful as I'll ever be Picking off the petals to remember me When I’m gone will you remember me? Maybe I can change Maybe I could say “Maybe I’m the bedrock in your way” I'm just food for your garden Buried under weight In the light of day Watch me decay I'm just food for your garden

Fake Frown 03:01
I know you Don’t know me To feign the face of struggling To get you to Write me up With any luck I’ll pay the man to fuck me up I won’t pull through And I can’t go a day without I’ve been faking homesick You’ve been chasing my tricks back to you A medicated meltdown Away from splitting my fake frown in two I’ll get back to you You could be Broke with me A fear of god just like the week I’m a hollow Razor need Watch it bleed If you won’t, I won’t say a thing I’m a hollow And I can’t go a day without A sedative to hold me down I’ve been faking homesick You’ve been chasing my tricks back to you A medicated meltdown Away from splitting my fake frown in two I’ll get back to you You’re not strong so the drugs can be stronger for you Don’t be humble you know Got fake friendships in all the right places do you Think that matters at all I’ve been faking homesick You’ve been chasing my tricks back to you A medicated meltdown Away from splitting my fake frown in two I’ll get back to you

Recall me in the morning Before our perfect crimes And a handmade sign That says “we might be alright” And it cleaves the passage from your house into the street You’d have to read it if you made your way to me And I’ve been thinking that we fucked up everything But we might be alright But darling You don’t want to know Just how far this goes Call me in the morning I can trace that perfect line Down your left-hand side And I know I’ll be alright I’m thinkin’, It’s kind of fucked up that you’re testing me On a call on the floor of your old apartment You don’t want to know Just how far this goes Darling You don’t want to know Just how far this goes And I might not be the same As the boy you loved that day Is it me that you abhor? He needs you more He needs you You don’t want to know Just how far this goes Darling You don’t want to know Just how far this goes
