Mirrors
02:46

Make me whole
So I see it all
Because I am a mirror
Holding on
To reflections of all
The things that we lost
And it's all on me to let this go
I'm feeling cold
Numb in my lips
You never noticed
My lungs are thin
I'm digging holes
To cover my bones
I'm headed home
You've lost control
I'll keep hopes up
But you'll let me fall
And it's all on me to let this go
And I'll never say the things we both know

Sleep

So it's time for me to fade
Walk away from everything
All these years I've made and
All you'll know is blame
I guess it's too late
For a slow decay
I've made mistakes and
Now I'm running out of space
Old empty minds
Keep me occupied
I'll sit around and
Check my records for tonight
Say goodbye
Forget what you left behind
Stay at ease this time 'cause
I can sleep just fine
A memory shifts to hate
One thousand different ways
All it got me was one foot
Inside the grave you dug for me
Spin me around so I can't see
Give me hazy dreams to sleep
I got away
I got away
I got away
Old empty minds
Keep me occupied
I'll sit around and
Check my records for tonight
Say goodbye
Forget what you left behind
Stay at ease this time 'cause
I can sleep just fine

Cut
02:39

I’m still awake
Haven’t slept here for days
Head in the clouds
It’s raining today
Cut me up into pieces
I’ve been dying to see
How I look on the inside
You can climb into me
Keep me from bleeding
Stitch me up like a fool
I can already taste it
I need something to prove
Cut me up into pieces
I’ve been dying to see
How I look on the inside
You can climb into me
Cut me up into pieces
I’ve been dying to see
How I look on the inside
You can climb into me

Necklace
03:14
|

Came across a necklace
Kept it hidden in a drawer
Thought I'd let it winter
Rust and tarnish to the core
Must have grown since then
It's a choker on my neck
Used to hang a little
Now the sight of it just makes me sick
I'm coming out
I'm better off now
I'm better off now
No one watching me down from the clouds
I'm better off now
Is it real, this silver?
Should I throw it all away?
Should I sell or keep it?
What's the difference either way?
I'm better off now
(I've got no one watching me down from the clouds)
I'm better off now
(I'm so very, clearly better off now)

Dizzy
02:56
|
|||
|
I’m dizzy
Let me sleep in
I’m in
No shape to be awake
I feel like it’s over
I’m spinning
Is it not clear
I’m facing
The same mistakes again
I feel like it’s over

Decay
02:54
|
|||
|
Maybe I need some time
To file away my peace of mind
It’s true
I’m letting go of you
Are you
My stepping stone to new
I keep crawling back from you
Run and hide in shades of blue
And I don’t care if I don’t prove
There’s not one thing you could do
I feel a flame beneath my feet
Red sheets of disbelief
It’s true
I’m hanging onto you
Are you
Slipping out of view
I keep crawling back from you
Run and hide in shades of blue
And I don’t care if I don’t prove
There’s not one thing you could do

Seasons

Summer
Always brings
A piece of me
I've not seen for a long time
Winter
Always seems to
Keep me standing by
Alone and I feel
The cold creeping inside
How long
Should I wait to move aside
It's discretion
That keeps me free
And pulls me through the night
But I need somewhere safe to hide
You'll remain complacent
For a seasonal acquaintance

Wallflower
02:57
|

|
Blacked out in the middle of the night
And I can feel the shaking ground
I guess it’s true, I guess it’s true
That you could make this worth it
And I can hear them
Through the cracks in all the windows near
I don’t know why
I don’t know why
Call me nothing
Say it to my face
I don’t want to waste your time
(So cut me out, just cut me out)
I don’t think I’ll reach that place
(Lay me down, just lay me down)
You see things, you keep them quiet
(Don’t keep me quiet now)
Tape my voice so you can read
Everything
And it’s constant
The way I feel a single touch
Unwelcome
But I miss it all the same, a bit too much
Unwelcome
I miss it all the same
Unwelcome
I miss it all the same
Call me nothing
Say it to my face
I don’t want to waste your time
(So cut me out, just cut me out)
I don’t think I’ll reach that place
(Lay me down, just lay me down)
You see things, you keep them quiet
(Don’t keep me quiet now)
Tape my voice so you can read
Everything
Call me nothing
To my face
Know that I won’t
Hear you scream
