Crossing 02:52
Wait, find my patience Can I change this Is this stasis When I wake up, am I the same one Recognize, but not rearrange us My skin, exposed and left on read Can I love myself and still say less If I let you in for just this once will you let go My thoughts aligned to what you’ve said Am I really me or am I you instead? If I drop my guard for just this once I would hope I know I need to remind myself Don't rewrite yourself Don't define yourself By the ways in which you hide your health There's no need to resign your wealth I need to remind myself Don't refind yourself It's inside yourself In all the parts you've kept expelled Take advantage of the cards you’re dealt Who I am What I was What I could become It was always here but never left my throat If this is real, why should I lie and let it get so numb A space like a hug I need to remind myself Don't rewrite yourself Don't define yourself By the ways in which you hide your health There's no need to resign your wealth I need to remind myself Don't refind yourself It's inside yourself In all the parts you've kept expelled Take advantage of the cards you’re dealt

Go chill with better friends I can deal with that I rewrite my words This sheet feels like a trap And it's like 7:30 And I can’t feel my legs My visions getting blurry I’m falling through the bed Keep my eyes wide open For the fake shit They’re complacent Fucking hate it It goes on and on Its all spinning I feel dizzy, I feel dizzy Call me on the phone Say you'll come around Say you’re coming home You won't take that route I’m just sick and tired of all the promises You say you’ll do better but you talk shit Go chill with better friends I can deal with that I rewrite my words This sheet feels like a trap And it's like 7:30 And I can’t feel my legs My visions getting blurry I’m falling through the bed

Landlock 02:06
I'm in a landlocked state But a mile away from my escape Can I find strength in you if I wish I didn't have to I'm in a landlocked state But the shore keeps washing me away Can I find good in this When will I get past "too soon" Did they take advantage when they fucked you too Did she take your trust and all that money too When it's said and done, what else am I supposed to do If my heart's made of love, does that mean that I have to The things that he said that I always come back to Head like a hole, need to get off the drip tube And come home to you I'm in a landlocked state But a mile away from my escape Can I find strength in you if I wish I didn't have to I'm in a landlocked state But the shore keeps washing me away Can I find good in this When will I get past "too soon"

It's like 2015 and the sands past my feet Your blood drips on my sweatshirt I breathe and release It only feels like last week Yet I see you in my sleep It's like 2015 and the sands past my feet Your blood drips on my sweatshirt I breathe and release It only feels like last week Yet I see you in my sleep Another day of not dying A moment left to reap

And like I can never think straight at all With you in my presence I got the pack up at a fixed rate, oh no I thought you were my blessing But I'll start all over again I just walk inside the void I might stare at the abyss I be countin' up my coin You be takin in the piss And you know we ain't the same You just don't wanna admit That you should start all over again Leave me alone I ain't gonna talk my shit if I know ur in the distance Leaving the zone I can never conversate with u because I hate your persistence Oh no, I can never find the words I could never fucking tell you just how much it seemed to hurt I can never find the pictures Think I put them in the dirt And you gonna throw me right aside But I don't think you know my worth at all Can it be, please let me breathe right now Tell the morning where you came from Do I belong here? Do I belong here How phosphorescent you bleed underneath the clouds I won't keep my mouth shut for too long Then maybe you'll be gone

Caramelize 02:48
Closure like a phantom Spent a couple nights memorizing you She gave me a promise as she let me in Oh-oh It's hard to remember the best things When everything is colored by you Now I don't even know what to look for If I were older, would I have recognized Your hand so slight, 5 bullets of porcelain knives Now that I'm older, does it coil down your spine Like it does to mine Sun-soaked gemini You won't wait for me to caramelize 15, Bootleg paradise You want me to wait for you Sun-soaked gemini You won't wait for me to caramelize 15, Bootleg paradise You want me to wait for you Sun-soaked gemini You won't wait for me to caramelize Bootleg paradise You want me to wait for you Wait for you Wait for me to caramelize 15, Bootleg paradise Wait for you I know I'll love myself when I am ready to Soon I'll forgive myself 'cause that's what I have got to do With all that said, I wish that I could say the same for you The same for you I know I'll love myself when I am ready to Soon I'll forgive myself 'cause that's what I have got to do With all that said, I wish that I could say the same for you The same for you
