Parades 03:31
PARADES Teaching myself To live like a ghost In a home filled with bones Deprived of the soul that you took When you needed alone When you left me for bars just to find who you are But that’s fine So now I spend time Passing through walls Just as quickly as you avoid All my phone calls Cause we’re both just searching for truth Spreading too thin like mascara Smeared across my bathroom sink I’m perfectly prepped And seasoned for slaughtering Now I’m Just a decorative memory That just couldn’t ease The demonic parades in your mind Splicing your hair With pieces of mine Like a fine wire Pristine Electric in time So that maybe you’ll let me inside We’ll both share a mind and I’ll find The moment that you say we died

DREAMS>WANTING Color draped around your neck So I’ll give it a taste (To see if you’re still breathing. To see if you still feel me now) A perfect mistake The left hand that holds his vows Is the same hand you’re beckoning with now (So I’ll keep your secret close. Keep our love quiet so nobody knows) I’m willing to wait So wear me like a wedding band tonight Does your fiancé know I’m under your skin When does dreaming become wanting Cause baby l’m heaven sent but clothed in red Inviting So much sweeter than the apple you bit Just to feel better And baby When you’ve been speaking with snakes You’re counting down the minutes til your next mistake Can’t you see my ledger’s red Marked out with hearts and beds (Oh god you’re barely breathing. Oh god what perfect art we make) So say it again and again and again So we’re at it again (I guess you’ve given up) Define just friends (On that other love) That’s when she said If I’m the devil, you’re original sin If I’m the devil Do you think of me when you’re lying next to him?

Dead By 25 04:28
DEAD BY 25 Escape from inside of yourself And let your demons go Cause your tale’s not etched in stone The pain killers aren’t working Cause we’re still broken and you’re still hurting and I’m Through speaking with a ghost I’m done collapsing And I’m sick of giving in Thinking today’s the day I wake up and Bury my best friend Cause your windows they have been all boarded up But we still see the light inside May it still be hope instead of fire Cease to burn yourself alive Tell me your grievances Are you capable of thinking straight Now that everything has changed I’m sick of lying up all alone Wondering if you’re at home and if you’re ok Tell me are you ok? I’m done collapsing Sick of giving in Thinking today I’ll have to bury my best friend If you change out of your skin And you see where I left standing Maybe we can make amends You’re not the same as me I woke up screaming

WOULDVE KILLED YOU Darling I lie in bed And try to teach Myself to hate your everything My heart is drinking bleach So then I turn to her and with a kiss I find she don’t taste like your skin My heart is caving in I hope you know Every single thing I wrote Would’ve killed you I am overgrown without new shells A blind man hearing wedding bells I can’t see Although I try No beauty in the bride So now I’m forcing flight I’m forcing end I’m burning you You’re Salem’s breath I can just breathe you in I hope you know Every single thing I wrote Would’ve killed you But I’m not like you So I’ll just bleed Over notes in Christmas Eve That say you’d kill me again They say you fucking miss me again

Toronto 04:59
TORONTO How’d you get your blood to taste like that? So healthy and full of reason And I’m sitting here On the edge of my bed Conjuring the seasons And she crawls over next to me And whispers good morning And I’m busy praying for snow Any excuse Just to sit and just do nothing I need Toronto I need North Dakota air Cause the only time I feel alive Is when I’m far away from here Step into the autumn air Barely dreaming up the morning And I’m sitting here In the same sad parking lot I sing in when I’m leaving Sarah sits down next to me And wishes for the lottery And I repeat the same old thing I repeat that This is living I need Toronto I need North Dakota air Cause the only time I feel alive Is when I’m far away from here And ain’t that something That we can feel nothing That a common place Can feel like an empty space There’s always some place that we’d rather go

Clarity 03:29
CLARITY Pull back your bow And as my heart begins to drink The water from your mind Your pulse stays steady With great clarity your hand releases Light the pyre you created with another Kiss my forehead with once great golden lips You’re free to push me off to sea tonight I breathe so heavy now and then When I stop to think of where you’ve been Open up my mind Tell me that what you see is gray I’m stuck between kissing you forever And wishing that I was in my grave And when he met your lips Did you think of where we’ve been? That although I wasn’t perfect I was patient And now I’m just caving in Your clothes that lie beside my bed No longer smell like your perfume And I’ve been getting drunk so maybe tonight I can step foot inside this bedroom Cause it’s a monument of us And everything we’ve ever dreamed Now it’s just me But that’s what you need So maybe I’ll try to get some sleep tonight instead And as my heart begins to rust The thoughts of him destroy these thoughts of us Now I’m wasted I guess I wasn’t good enough I guess this was never good enough

Wishing Well 05:40
WISHING WELL She says that I’m selfish She says that I’m living in the past She says that I’m weighted She says I’m emotionless Invent the drugs that’ll make me normal The way you wish that I could breathe Fill my veins with passionate poison Erase the better parts in me If it’ll make you feel happy again She says I’m self-righteous She says that I can’t hold conversations too well It’s like I’m a bird Trying to fly But i can’t Cause she’s got me in her teeth so I stay Sometimes I feel I got stuck in a wishing well Hearing other people’s dreams Got nothing to do with me So I’ll catch your coins in my eyes So that the boat man will take me across The Black Sea tonight Invent the drugs that’ll make me normal The way you wish that I could breathe Fill my veins with passionate poison Erase the better parts in me If it’ll help you think about us again Lie to all your friends Tell them what I’m dead On the inside On the inside Take my conscious for a spin Let everybody in To see my insides See my insides
