Young 04:40
I want to forget your every step backwards I'd shout if I had enough of my own words Your guarantees mislead me Reduce me. Believe me This is never what I meant You knew me better in a dream so far away A noose a hair you left on my fucking bed My neck is bound and bent to the Words you expressed in love letters never sent Swift as gossip and soft as a sketches Holy motives I can't fathom The young heart wretches Running around searching for your touch your scent memory crudely my lungs fill black tar insides far too much I can't recognize you in pictures Still to this day We were born fractures Breaking better everyday You'll never be far removed I want the hurt to never know I want to ask you to come back home.

I'm on my knees When you're on your heels Because nothing ever appears how you feel And I'm quiet to appease the quiver of your lips Retching, I spit out my teeth Undone shackles at my feet. You know too well I'm a threat to me. It's not the life for me. It's not a chance to be. But if we had tongues to speak We would tell all lies and secrets You can't keep I never thought I would be sucked in. The sky I painted dark blue in my eyes for this. It was you who held my heart for ransom and I always hated it. It was you who held my heart in The place I never left. The threat of always coming last. I'm mortified by the love that swings back. I know you hate where you're living And you hate where you're loving But I hope you find what you seek I'm on my knees When you're on your heels Because nothing ever appears how you feel And I'm quiet to appease the quiver of your lips The arms never stretch so wide until they need to quit Once more I'd wrap my car around a pole before I wrap my mind around your shit. Fuck.

Gilded Heart 05:33
I see you in everyone and everything. I tried. You're right. I want to crush the loneliness out of my brain. I want to carve a hole in my rib cage. I'm not worth the dirt that I will sink into. Your gilded heart won't ever let me in. I wish the pain you have would cave me in. Your gilded heart decays a shrine to itself.

You've been caught again. The eyes won't follow the unsung song. Struggle to hold on the ledge but the wayward heart was wrong. Does the bridge break when you set your foot on it? Oh I know you'd love to see me fall but you will never have the pleasure. I truly believe solitude is all yours forever. Your indebted struggle. It's a handful of treasures even you can't bear. Don't hold it against me if I tell you I refuse to be fooled. All hail to your throne of shit. The crown awaits White knuckle grip on your fate. Turn back falling from grace. The Cradle falls on your deceit. You're better off gone. Save us From us

Clouds 02:23
Would rather stay in my shell. Would rather stay at home. Would rather never have lived. Would rather never come down from the clouds my head is in. I've given up and you can win. If only time permits my dreams. Please just lock me in. Please just throw away the key. Please just seal my casket. Pray this is the end I need. Let me just give it all up. I need a release from this skin. I'm at the start of the end.

Widow Womb 03:44
I want the end, I'm at my end I'm on the inside. It's your sick hivemind. It's always worse when you prolong the pain. You spun your web when I claimed you in vain. Holy Ghost, Widow Womb. I'm not shit without you. Out the lips of a liar. Down the throat of a heathen. Conquered the grave and forgot my name. All I want is just the same. It's my fault it's my sins. This heat burns holes in me. I'd die just to make it worse. Death at the door and love at the gates. Can't be for me. It's better off that way. Seasons bloom and I forget you. Nothing was what it was when I was bright eyed and fucked. Second wind. I couldn't hold you like I did. If I live to die, then it's something I can't fight. It's fine. I'll just fucking sleep it off.
