PB&J 01:38
Just another day, And you'll be mine At the pantry room And the silver lids There will come a time To give up on all of your books At the petrol station We'll meet there for lunch And I'll step in I'll step in a puddle of rain To show you the ring and I hope that I hope that you say "Yes, I'll be yours forever" And hopefully, The creed will carry on For the rest of our lives And hopefully, Creed doesn't mess up our wedding But it's okay, 'Cos Cece and Phillip be waiting for us at my parents house The portrait of a clown I love you so, Like PB&J

I Love You 02:32
Turn around, Put the gun on the ground Why didn't you make any sound? Turn around, I need to know that you're safe and sound Screaming in my ears, His face froze your tears It's alright it won't be long Before his hands are gone

Black Star 03:16

Can you hear me? I can't tell if you're angry 'Cos you won't tell me if you are I'm hoping for another chance to understand What made you cry so hard on that night What made me tell the futile lies Was it really to calm and comfort you? Or was it to calm and comfort me? Are you with me? I can't tell if you're mad or glad at the fact that I'm with you Your apathy is on display It's much to my dismay We're both stuck in this rut Now we're both running in circles couldn't stand still The photographs took with inept skill Hanging a frame for all to see That there's nothing but wood and nails
5.
GFs 03:40
Wake up My girl Is it my face the face you see? Crying Don't be Are you mornings as cruel as me? Is it hard to crawl Out of your bed sheets With the thought of me? And is it easier to say Baby, please let go of me?
6.
Loveless 02:44
A drop of sunshine In the gleam of your eyes A sea of starlight That spills from mine A fleeting moment I just can't hold it The tears' gone cold and I just feel so broken When your silhouette fades into the distance And my cigarette has ran it's course I'll try my best to keep my resistance But I know I'll still drown in remorse The breeze runs through your hair Like my fingers used to do This ship's beyond repair But I'd sink in it with you Your cheeks are a flare Like the first time we made love It's a pain that I can't bare It's a pain I can't get rid of Your frown runs deep in skin Like the first time we had fought Misery starts seeping in It's the last fight of the lot The breeze runs through your hair Where my lips used to rest It's a pain that I can't bare It's a pain that's in my chest It's a pain that I can't bare All bearings are a mess It's a pain that I can't bare To see you walk away loveless Loveless, loveless, loveless

Long Live 01:11
Hey, aren't you going away? So how come you're still here with your Plastic bags and things to rid me of my Childish inquisitions and strings I tie my toys to? I fear one day that you'll mess up and get thrown into a lock up But wait, Isn't that what I said To you when you were drunk and lonely All the notes you write at night and Cry yourself to sleep with Hey, it really isn't that bad It's just the way you look at yourself in the mirror Trying to paint a prettier picture Just paint a prettier picture
8.
Nope 04:27
Since when was the last time You've been without fear Just don't forget this I'll make it alright Okay, I think I am losing it On this particular kind of day When you saw the mess that I was in You'd quickly find a blame to put On me, all the things that I could be "But you chose to be all that you weren't" Don't try to feel like you're sorry Cuz this is who I am just not what you want Trying to break from this vicious cycle Of entrapment, can't you see that I just Want to have my sanity lest it be torn apart by you? "The world is a nightmare that never ends, so just sleep forever and that'll be the end" Is this an indictment for me wanting to live? Or is this just another trick up your sleeves Okay, I think I am losing it On this particular kind of day When I saw the mess that you were in You'd quickly find a blame to put On me, how I was not what you were But now this time it is different I won't make a difference in your eyes You blinked and you missed everything I won't close my eyes

Wet Paint 01:26
(yeah wet paint) I'm trying my best to not let it win In a place where it's quiet and empty I'll let myself think Ignore the ants piling at the crumbs In hopes that I might win But it isn't easy to get rid of these terrible feelings It's like trying to kill myself It's something that I need as much as I don't really need it I don't really have a choice I'm trying my best but I still can't win I guess it's okay that I'll live like this The only thing that I need The only thing that I have I'll scrape you off of my skin You won't be missed

Cigarettes 02:30
Endlessly, like the gentle winds when it used to, it soothed me Now I reach for the calm which brings on the quiet, the silence "Call it quits, this is just a place that you thought was, it isn't" Endlessly, hints of toneless stings that will carve in what's missing Now I rest as the drizzle starts to begin this, this work of I'm incomplete A cigarette in between of this passing moment It just gets worse I taste defeat The smoulder in my hands It will never go out It will haunt me forever
11.
End Mono 03:39
Yesterday, I walked on jagged mountains It was cool, just like the endless summer Winds and ocean breeze that swept your face Oh how it's gone our lovely space Just throw it all away Cross out all of the names They probably don't even know who we are We will catch the train Run out of our games And we'll be left with nothing I can't wait to chase the sun I saw a place And there it's near the ocean They've got a bar That we could go to sometime in June When it's always noon And we could sit and laugh at the people Just throw it all away Cross out all of the names They probably don't even know who we are We will catch the train Run out of our games And we'll be left with nothing I can't wait to chase the su-u-u-u-n
