Sky's turned a deep shade of crimson as the storm we've all been fearing approaches
Seek shelter
Build a cabin in the woods fully knowing that it'll be obliterated
Protect me from what I want
'Cause what i want is not (never) enough
Get rid of the gods you used to worship
Protect me from what I want
'Cause what i want is not (never) enough

Take half your dosage and go offline
Picture yourself carrying a whitetail fawn on your back as the sun's coming down
Accept that's it's all about passing out in style
Become a prophet of the one and only god
White wine
Hold it together I know you can do better than that
(with me holding your hand)
I remember finding out that it gets easier when you puke it all out
That one falling star you pointed out
Yeah, I think it's glued to the sky;
or did it all stop?
Hold it together I know you can do better than that
(with me holding your hand)
I remember finding out that it gets easier when you puke it all out
White wine
Stop stop stop stop
Did it all stop
Hold it together I know you can do better than that
(with me holding your hand)
I remember finding out that it gets easier when you puke it all out

Meet on the other side of the mirror and look at yourself head to toe
Talk to me through electric hum and generate my responses
Stare at the wall
Pass through the wall
Here I would tell you something;
Something that could resonate;
But, my words can't change you
My words can't change you
They never could
They never could
No, no
Stare into dead space with that look on your face
I never told anyone that I (love) would make sense
And if I could, Then I would, but I cannot
Show you that loving me doesn't make much sense
Loving me doesn't make much sense
They never could
No
Stare into dead space with that look on your face
I never told anyone that I (love) would make sense
And if I could, Then I would, but I cannot
Show you that loving me doesn't make much sense
Loving me doesn't make much sense

I want to wake up in your arms,
But you don't want to sleep with me
Am I getting desperate;
Or is it the sedatives and the Percocet?
It doesn't work - I don't do shit halfway
It doesn't work - I don't do shit halfway
See this song is sad - it has strings in it
It's not gonna work, I'm not gonna make this work
It doesn't work - I don't do shit halfway
No
Don't talk to me; it's OK
Don't talk to me; it's OK
It's not gonna work, I'm not gonna let it work
Don't talk to me; it's OK
It doesn't work - I don't do shit halfway
(Don't talk to me; it's OK)
It doesn't work - I don't do shit halfway
Don't talk to me; it's OK
No, no
Don't talk to me; it's OK
No

Love
04:06
|
|||
I can feel you from the other room
Even when you're not present
Your name is death, and I'm getting used to knowing you
Through little flashes on my tiny screen
Humanism is obsolete
It's never ever gonna get better
It's never ever gonna get better
Not for me, at least
Nothing I hold dear retains value
It's been that way ever since I remember
Love is obsolete,
Love is obsolete
It's never ever gonna get better
It's never ever gonna get better
(Love is obsolete,
Love is obsolete)
It's never ever gonna get better
It's never ever gonna get better
(Love is obsolete,
Love is obsolete)
It's never ever gonna get better
It's never ever gonna get better

Self-harm (Anxiety)
03:53
|
|||
Looking off into the distance -
- Incredible indifference
It's not your fault,
I just really want something to happen
Even though nothing probably will
Melting on the gas station floor
I'll try to puke everything out
All the acid,
All the medicine,
All the memories
Some man said he's going to hell
I really want to die,
But I'm too scared to do anything at all
Such a typical aspiration;
So motherfucking shallow
Self-harm is all that's left
Self-harm is all that's left
Self-harm is all that's left
Self-harm is all that's left
Self-harm is all that's left
Self-harm is all that's left

I'll Try Not to Wake You
04:53
|
|||
I'm sick of this artsy shit;
Gonna dye my hair green
Hide in some grass -
- Not be seen for the sake of it
It's time for me to leave,
Since everyone's taking off
Take good care of yourself
While I'm gone
I'll evaporate out the window
Trying not to wake you
My electric guitar shocks my fingertips -
- This thing should be on at all times
I can't heal like that, all drugged out
Out of my mind
Out of my mind
Out of my mind
Nothing changes either way,
'Cause I wasn't entirely here
Sometimes I love you, and sometimes I don't,
And it's entirely my fault
I'll evaporate out the window
Trying not to wake you
Dangerous new environments
Consume me!
Stand your ground - don't hurt yourself
Don't, don't
Stand your ground - don't hurt yourself
Don't, don't
Put that knife away

Fear
05:22
|
|||
It's a hard balance -
- Wanting out, but simultaneously waking up
Dazed with love
There is no trust
Give me some time
Self-help's provisional
Fear is all I've got
Something familiar
It's something I can trust
I've been proven many times
I will not make it last
I simply cannot
I simply cannot,
I simply cannot
Self-help's provisional
Fear is all I've got
(I'm sure it doesn't hurt to answer)
Something familiar
It's something I can trust
I've been proven many times
(What's wrong?
Yeah, you can leave me hanging)
I will not make it last
(I'm sure it doesn't hurt to answer)
I simply cannot
I simply cannot

Flight (Dallas, TX)
04:40
|
|||
I lay down
Mid-flight
From Boston to Dallas, Texas
Diffused in the breeze
Ever-shifting and short-lived
Brief (Breathe)
Do you want to end it because you've stopped feeling?
There's much more to life than feeling
There comes a time when even the best medicine stops working
Do you want to end it because you've stopped living?
Because you stopped caring?
I've been there
Oh, many times
And everytime I came back
I came back less present
Do you want to end it because you've stopped feeling?
There's much more to life than feeling

Clear Acetate (Cherries)
03:34
|
|||
Is it the sun or is it us
I turn around
The afterglow bound by clear acetate
I see you holding fireworks in your paws
That one remark I've made over the phone
It still holds up
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
While you're still here
Pizza boxes are starting to pile up
That one roll of film that you left on my bedside table
It didn't develop
It came out overexposed
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
While you're still here
(I had to throw it all away)
1, 2, 3, 4 and
All these dumb love songs nobody listens to
Well, what I've meant there depends entirely on the context
You'll never know
I'll never let you this close
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
Feed me cherries
While you're still here
(I had to throw it all away)

Wound
03:36
|
|||
Stay in bed
Pretend you're asleep
Nothing's happening
They aren't here
Nobody's here
Play your DS
Pretend you don't care,
But deep down -
You still care
And this wound -
It still hurts
It still hurts
(These wounds -
They will never fade)
