Eights 02:58
A created disturbance Unknown in a distant light I’m feeling closer in my mind Headaches Heartaches My body breaks So set me on fire I till So slow With time to grow So set me on fire And I don’t think you should worry about it And I don’t think you should worry about it And I don’t think you should worry about it And I don’t think you should worry about it (And you go and you stay and you go and you stay) And I don’t think you should worry about it (And you go and you stay and you go) And gently, lay me down And gently, lay me down And gently, lay me down And gently, lay me down (And it goes and it goes and it slows down) And gently, lay me down (And it goes and it goes and it slows down) And gently, lay me down

C'mon, Jerry 02:39
Crawling out of the bedroom Natural alarm wakes me up at noon See the light through the curtains And I’m back in the covers once again Agree on leaving, spend minutes to hours every day Catching up on breathing, the air pulls thick through my filter again And when I sit alone, you know I’m worried Put on the same clothes I’ve worn because I’m gross You said I’m gone (You said I’m gone) You said I’m gone Watch me spiral away (Watch me spiral away) You said I’m gone So make way for the bad days coming the silence humming When you can’t fall asleep in the end And I fear the immediate future Hate the holidays, I can’t stand the shape I’m in My depression’s making me unhealthy My intentions have been lost in smoke My life is crawling with roaches and covered in ash But I’m the only thing burning now My malnutrition has a beautiful figure You can’t tell ‘cuz I’m not eatin’ at all Sorry I’m broken Sorry I’m sensitive Sorry I said sorry at all You said I’m gone (You said I’m gone) You said I’m gone Watch me spiral away (Watch me spiral away) You said I’m gone You said I’m gone (You said I’m gone) You said I’m gone Watch me spiral away (Watch me spiral away) You said I’m gone You said I’m…gone You said I’m gone Watch me spiral away You said I’m gone

Gravy Brain 03:29
Three hours to midnight Tell me I’m adored Three minutes till the buzz really hits and I’m crying on the floor And I’m beginning to mold Getting stuck to the couch Holding out for a new beginning but you left me out And will you be quiet With me among the stars Wander off slowly Forgetting where you are Drift into madness Come closer when you care And will you be quiet With me while you’re here And don’t get upset, I told you not to bet on me A changing context, you swear it isn’t what it screams Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah) With dazed eyes I see Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah) What’s left of me Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah) With dazed eyes I see Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah) What’s left of me

Stones 02:30
I think I’m falling to pieces Slowly sinking the stones Run freely from sadness Stand on the hilltop alone It seems fit to set fire Absorb a feeling of heat Burn a bridge in the wrong direction It’s only fair I wait And tie me up in the moment And don’t make me weep I fell ill with the cancer inside you Under the weather again Under the weather again, under the weather again It feels nice to show you Always with conditions of solace Appear polished but molded by my pain Bring back the faith Excited with a sense of urgency Always with conditions of solace Appear polished but molded by my pain Bring back the faith Excited with a sense of urgency Always with conditions of solace Appear polished but molded by my pain Bring back the faith Excited with a sense of urgency (We’re taking off, feel the backs of the other And we’re holding on, until the warmth recovers) Always with conditions of solace Appear polished but molded by my pain Bring back the faith Excited with a sense of urgency (We’re taking off, feel the backs of the other And we’re holding on, until the warmth recovers)

Twinge 02:04
Let the twinge help this feeling come to life Keep on with this humor, keep it light (light) And empty, alone (alone), so cringey And give all of your secrets to me Write it all down, all down, all down Keep it light and empty (And I’ve had many, many conversations) Alone so cringey (And I’ve said many, many words through tears) Keep it light and empty (And I’ve had heavy, heavy conversations) Alone

Excess Skin 02:34
Head low mundane again Bare bones excess skin Ooh Ooh Hold on to me Hold on to me But it’s in my head Running round tonight And we’re feelin’ strong But it’s in my head Running round tonight And we’re feelin’ strong Hold on to me Hold on to me But it’s in my head Running round tonight And we’re feelin’ strong But it’s in my head Running round tonight And we’re feelin’ strong

Fold 02:39
Just go, you’re so materialistic Take a bad copy of all the things you’ve lost Be sure you hold on to what’s missing It was worth it for you all I don’t think in the right frame of mind Complacently nervous Lonelier in time I’m angry, I’m helpless And I mean it I hate this (Oooh aaah) (And I’ll take it all) (And I’ll take it all) I can’t take it, I feel helpless (And I’ll take it all) And I mean it, I hate this (And I’ll take it all) I can’t take it, I feel helpless (And I’ll take it all) And I mean it, I hate this

Buffy Bois 03:04
Make way ‘til the thrills are gone And not long ‘til the morning comes, well Don’t wake me up, I’m swallowed inside Build walls with the fears you’ve sealed and Fall asleep over beers you’ve spilled You’ve stained your shirt and it shows this time Hang on, hang on, hang on cause we’re almost through it And we’ve brushed it off, brushed it off, brushed it off You can’t brush through it And we talked it out, worked it off Emphasized, we’re tired as hell And we hang on, hang on, hang on cause we’re almost through it And we’ve brushed it off, brushed it off, brushed it off (You) can’t brush through it Say what you said, that’s enough now Don’t ruin anything with words that came out I’ve found more than broken glass to cut the rope that bind me A perfect imposter on a flawless design Life finds a way to squeeze ‘em sometimes Abandon your body ‘til the smoke comes out, and try to hang on (And we hang on, hang on, hang on cause we’re almost through it Brushed it off, brushed it off, brushed it off You can’t brush through it)
