Forgiven

I want to be forgiven
But I don't want to
Black boots and roof tops
We drift on the road
And the clouds follow too
Praying one day the world stops
Small sitting here
Cheated on by you
Impossible
We're always
Alone
I guess if you drink enough vodka
it tastes like love
Just another chapter, read and done
But you didn't read me well enough
I guess if you drink enough vodka
it tastes like love
Just another chapter, read and done
But you had enough
We'll sleep under the stars and watch the time fly by
Veins and blood shot eyes
We fight until we start to cry
But that's alright
Small sitting here
Cheated on by you
Impossible
We're always
Alone
I guess if you drink enough vodka
it tastes like love
Just another chapter, read and done
But you didn't read me well enough
Oh, forgiven

Crank the dial to 11
I can just fade off tonight
Yeah we saw the old pictures
But I'm slowly losing my sight
Cause I can't breathe
And it's not your fault
You're the open wound
And I think I'm the salt
But there's another side of heaven
And I think I'll be there
Drifting among the living
I'll get to watch your stare
And I'll still be here
Just don't hold on for too long
I'll still be here

You like getting high
and I like getting happy
You can call me when you want to
Just don't forget the voice mail
Euphoria
The euphoria
Of
Just knowing ya
Not knowing
With the
Dysphoria
Cause I always seem to change
Not the same
I don't even know what I want this time
Just ties and hats and combat boots
Maybe longer hair and a deeper voice
And maybe just to put my life on mute
But I don't know
(I don't know)
Watch them go
(Watch them go)
Lights off
Watch the world turn (watch the world turn)
Hold my hand
As I
Feel
Pain
(Chorus thing)
We never hear
The sound of rain
Against our window
Drying
Slowly

You're so peaceful when you sleep
Closest path to death
Speaking quite elusively
Too conscious of your breaths
Lists keep you clean
Parents lukewarm
Heavy rain aesthetic
Why were you born
Danger so appealing
Commitment to a dress
Same window twice a day
There is nothing left
What does it feel like
What does it sound like
what does it taste like
What does it look like
An apparition unstable
Held together with stitches
Gone tomorrow or tonight
Can't throw it away
You needed something, always absent
But let the beetle be

In Pursuit of Magic

Never seen the night be this beautiful
Mom should be up by 5
the clouds are in the sky
Breeze, no TV
Hum my way to nowhere
Someone told me to sing in the trees
And love the whole world
And I do, I think I really do

A '60s Wooden Procession

No no no
I don't really want to wait on this
I don't want to wear a shirt again
Hiding from what I need to hear
Yet again, here comes the pain
It sends
The truth straight down my legs
Cause every month my back is bent
It's my lie, I've created
But tell me this is all a dream
And tell me this is all a game
When the same feeling comes at me
And the feeling always feels the same
Card and a lighter in my backpack
Cigarettes on the cold hard ground
Mother dearest, I've broke the wall again
I cant stop this, taking the air from me
Nothing feels right
I'll tell you what I do know
I feel so blue, so blue
Find the holes where my thoughts are flawed
Shoot straight with a round of applause
Green screen, and in right in its jaws
Got a bruise, but I like it when it's raw

They Were Kids

They Were Kids
Pushing chests out
The water too cold
Moments far away
Faces wrapped in gold
Dancing through the sunset
Leave vices behind
Organs always seemed to play the soundtracks of our lives
But let the ghosts remain
And look me in the eye
Colors fading gray
Nothing money can't buy
We gave up aimless talent
Unaware of time
Sultry air was the last thought on our minds
Crowded foggy dreams
Shame mixed with fear
Headlights appear
Behavior cavalier
And we were kids
So how should we lead
Falling on the sidewalk, scraped knees bleed
Night lights meant nothing to me

Matthew

He's not the type to wear grey or blue
Matthew
He smokes them cigarettes too
Matthew
Attracted to his hairdo
Matthew
Shows his chest tattoo
Matthew
So do you cry on your birthday?
Do you cry on your birthday?
No, he won't die for you
Matthew
Always trying to find the truth
Matthew
We try to copy things he'd do
Matthew
What comes next, we have no clue
Matthew

Oath
03:08
|

|
I take a drip of water falling from my chalice
Alabaster box, but the air is filled with malice
I create the room, sun shining through my palace
A body so still with no control on the mattress
How should I continue, who should wear the crown
Raining on the window, coming down without a sound
Prodigal analogies, with no real common ground
Hold the sword deep in my chest until I come around
Then I will return to states of reality, And bid myself to sleep
Take away the acrid thoughts, Cut, backspace, delete
Tally up the years as filters sweet under my feet
Wash rinse, soil cleanse, the cycle then repeats
The thickness of my hands and arms, measure edge to edge
Bite my tongue, cut me off, let my mind compress
Rest and dream in peace, And let this be my pledge
That I will never contimplate suicide like this
Ever again
