My Eagerness

You're not on a pedestal
My eagerness is here again
I'm comfortable alone Solitary living is safe
Settle down, you're not in trouble
Calm down, you were fine just a moment ago
Forgive me I'm distracted,
As I pull myself back
Maybe it's just a season,
Or maybe this is all that is left
My old ways of envy,
Are revealing themselves today
I was afraid of this,
It’s out of my reach

You Just Fell

Why do we wait till' we're sick of being sick
Before we do anything?
Of all the time I spent with you
Would it have killed you?
You never loved her
You just fell in love with the prejudice ideas of a lover
She's never getting any younger
But she's exactly what she sells herself, sells herself to cover
I remember when you shouted out
You can't do this again, you need to stop while you're ahead
I remember when you said the words you'd written down
It's all on you, because you asked me too.
No wonder you said what you did
No wonder it all ended
No wonder you never read it
No wonder we couldn't mend it

Caving

I’m caving in
Like before i’m caving in
On our way out
In the dark beneath the lights
I’m caving in
No way around, so lets stay in
I won’t ask for affirmation
I don’t need it anymore
I’ll crumble
Under the weight of your breath tonight
I won’t stumble
But thank God for the
Moonlight
Keep me humble
With all of your might
I’ll crumble
Into pieces, it’ll be alright
Hold tight
Make my heart collapse in
The other night
I’m in heaven
Don’t make me blind
I’m keeping reason
Holding tight
i’ll pray to heaven
Tonight
There's no smoke in the air
I’m breathing clean
I swear

I Watched You Grieve
04:23

There are life and death inside your mouth I know
I’m doing it on my own, look I’m doing it on my own
You ran before you even saw
Don’t remind me
You remind me
Stay away
Let go, let be, let run, let breathe again
I Know, you’d see, undone, now and again
Fear is only ever a reaction
I can feel the heat of conviction in my face
Don’t come down on me now
Don’t come running back now
Don’t me leave now
I knew you’d leave
Forgive me
I helped you see
Forgive me
I watched you grieve
Forgive me
I let you leave
Forgive me

Burn
05:16
|
|||
|
I'm reliant on what I've had and what I've lost
My dependency keeps me down
To die to live, to count your cost
I'm putting the flame out
Then I can live
I'm putting the flame out
Then I can love again
The truth I know, that I'm never alone
Is getting harder to believe, when i'm struggling to breathe
I'll present to you a version of myself
If you only knew the things I've left out

To Understand
05:00
|
|||
|
If I dare to let you in
You may never see me again
Lately i’ve been dreaming
More vividly again
What are you trying to say
Believe me now i’m trying to make way
What are you trying to get through
I believe you now i’m waiting for the day
I can’t focus on it all
When I try another’s pinned upon the wall
Again death is brought to me
I’m focused on what you are trying to help me see
I’m giving it my all
I’ve been waiting patiently there for your call
I’m trying to understand
More to follow you, the things you’ve planned
Nighttime outings i’ll descend
My adolescence is coming to an end
The grace that I can’t comprehend
Will save me in the end
