Scaredy Cat 03:32
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 02:53
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

Paperweight 05:06
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 04:37
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
