I’ve been so out of focus,
You’ve been so hard to notice me oh
My god I’m overloaded
From your touch
I’ve said too much
Oooo, I’m your son
Goddamn we’re feeling soulless
Since the day you told me hopelessly i
Can’t escape from this growing ocean
Of regret, I can’t forget
This regret, I regret
When you first told me
I was scared, I was scared
Now you just hold me in the air
And say it’s not fair
It’s insane we’re out of moments
Cold gazes keeping company like
Old friends you hardly spoke with
It’s been years
Since we’ve been here
Mmmm I’ve been here
When you first told me
I was scared, I was scared
Now you just hold me in the air,
And say it’s not fair

No More

I’ve been sitting around a waiting on ya
Just to catch the colors taking all the
Sense of what you had awaiting for ya
Location in the blue
Away from all you knew
Took a trip to places I’ll be honest
Just to see the whitest fence and awnings
Cept inside this house Is just a normal ruse
Lighting all my fuses
Holding on
Just to take my light away
Just to take my ocean eyes from where they stood
Just to make me fade away when you say
I don’t care, I wouldn’t take you anywhere
No more
Back when I was just a humble scholar
I couldn’t make you come you wouldn’t bother
Had to hold my breathe in when I called you smoothly
trauma passes through me
Like you had me

Just a few days til I see you with a plan
I'm the man who won’t salt your plate
Said ya tell me young plans understand that I’m aware I won’t fake you out hiding so late
No way no way, to play with hate
No way no way to bait and switch
Don’t we alway pay when we’re playing who’s saying you’ll take it in like a long day
But don’t say I won’t love if all you’ll do is take
No way no way
Your playing it safe
No way no way
to bait and switch
Just a few days til I see you with a plan
I'm the man who won’t salt your plate
Said ya tell me young plans understand that I’m aware I won’t fake you out hiding so late

i’m in the way
i told you all this time
i wanted us to rhyme
its all i can say
gets me all the time
even my goodbye
ooooooooooo
where we could go
Did something catch your eye
leave here for a while now
its hard to evolve
from when we weren’t in time
from what we could design
in all my disgrace
i'm lonely now but i feel okay
at the end of the day
You’re my paper weight
Just wait …
its hard to behold
how you were so cold
like you didn't know
instead you choked
to stay inside your shell
to stay so very unwell
in all my disgrace
I’m lonely now but i feel okay
at the end of the day
You’re my paper weight
You're my only mistake

Waking Game

no favor to wait up for some time
So...
Let all the young unheard, start being right
I tell it all thru my eyes
Life has been a waking game, knowing that it stays the same oh
Lesson from a goddamn pain
Liken to the face we halo
I table all the losses alone
Beholden in the fire light
What gets out of us
Some people keep their best selves last
I’ll labor that, I’m not afraid to try
For a way to the beacon of our plight
An anchor to an easy sunrise
Missing late, caught up in this shake of fate oh no
I guess alone that I could go home
Life has been a waking game, showing that it’s all insane
I’ll tell it all through my eyes
It’s holding in the fire light
Can’t ya save it now
Some people keep their best selves last
I’ll labor that, I’m not afraid to try
For a way to the beacon of our plight
An anchor to an easy sunrise
Sung libels
Dumb and blue
(Can’t) get no sleep
Could’ve let a life someday go gone
Oh no
So maybe I’ll save up my good light
I’ll tell it all once I’ve been sprung
Some people keep their best selves last
I’ll labor that, I’m not afraid to try
For a way to the beacon of our plight
An anchor to an easy sunrise
