We Intertwined
04:24
|
|||
After the stars aligned
Our orbits collided
You’re the extension of myself
I never thought I needed
The universe decided
It’d allow us the time
To build a home in each other
And we intertwined

Stone Balloon
03:33
|

What are you doing here?
Don’t you know that you’re not welcome
You manage to appear
Right when I least expect you
Manifesting
In the deepest cavern of my stomach
Bubbling up, heavily
like a balloon made of stone
I’m stranded in the deep
Strayed from the shallow
I’d do anything to keep
My head afloat
I feel it underneath
Reaching up through my shadows
Always taunting me
Where seconds are eternities
Frozen in place
Veins are burning, pins and needles
Oh it’s cruel puppetry
You’re no fun at parties
I’m stranded in the deep
Strayed from the shallow
I’d do anything to keep
My head afloat
I’m taking back the reins
From when I lost control
I should’ve never let
You make me feel so small

In Blind Sight
04:37
|

I want to see what you see
A different kind of light
I know I should be kinder
But I have dishonest eyes
Have I been blind
To what's right in front of me?
All I wanted was to be happy
Have I been blind
To what's right in front of me?
She’s screaming
But her mouth’s not moving
I trace the patterns
And pick apart what I want
But only sometimes
I see past the illusions
I’m so sorry
I’ve treated you so badly
I’m casting rocks at mirrors
But they always throw them back at me (x2)
Throw them back at me
And I’m the one to blame
I get in my own way
Have I been blind
To what's right in front of me?
All I wanted was to be happy
Have I been blind to
what's right in front of me?
She’s screaming
but her mouth’s not moving
but her mouth’s not moving
but her mouth’s not moving
but her mouth’s not moving

Lose the Hat
03:10
|

A cherry-picked persona
Fruitful, delicate, eagerly waiting to be consumed
Your craving for validity is ravenous
But with an ego like that it’s insatiable
Paint me a new picture, but not that one
The grass is too green here
You can run through the landscape for miles
But if you can’t keep up with them then what’s the point?
I took a trip to my conscious thought
The scenery was nice but now I’m tired
It took me to a place somewhere between comfort and ingenuity
Leaving me jet-lagged
I see the performance you’re putting on,
This show has lasted years now
Does the hat come off when you go to sleep
Or has that become an extended limb too?
Your words are as irritating as they are empathetic
A tasteless regurgitation
Chew with your mouth closed
No one wants to hear another flavorless conviction
It’s actionless action
Dragging on and on and on and on and
My eyes are locked, retinas burning
I want a refund on this mirror, it doesn’t work how I want it
Can I have the satisfaction of your attention?
What a privilege it is to have it these days
Can I have the satisfaction of your attention?
What an invaluable thing but I always seem to lose it
Well, can you tell me what day it is?
Was the last thing you drank your own spit?
How do you live behind eyes like that?
When your home’s just a place on the internet?

The Plunge
03:43
|
|||
My youthful joy
And my biggest fear
I’m familiar at the surface
But not what’s underneath
How could this happen?
The water’s so cold
And you’re growing smaller
From my vantage point
I swear I’ve always felt safe here, with you at the helm
But you can’t always expect the unprecedented
Now I pay the price
I’m losing my sight
I’m losing my mind
There’s a date that passes
Each year secretly
Telling when I’ll expire
And that day might be here
The harder I swim the heavier I feel
As you come closer, the distance seems greater
Then finally I break through the surface
Body feeling like lead, I turn towards the plunge
And I snarl, “who’s laughing now?”
Who’s laughing now
