Don’t leave me light I have gone blind Now I can’t leave my worried head Till my heart stops beating I will starve for you Horrible thoughts are repeating All I’m bound to is gone I think I’m going crazy I’ve been feeling ashamed I wish I could be nice to myself I wish I could go away Autumn air I don’t care Don’t leave me light I’ll lose my mind Now I can’t leave my cozy bed Till my heart stops beating I will starve for you Horrible thoughts are repeating All I’m bound to is gone I think I’m going crazy I’ve been feeling ashamed I wish I could be nice to myself I wish I could go away Autumn air I don’t care I don’t care Where you fall Where you go I’ll get scared In the dark All alone

See the rain on the grass and the rising sun Feel the light of the past when the day is done Don’t remember when Don’t remember why Just remember how the darkness crept on into the sky I don’t wanna lose what’s been running on my mind I don’t wanna lose what’s been running on my mind And time is passing by Slow down and waste your time Hang on nothing is mine Lay down and waste your mind See the pines and the leaves in the passing wind Feel the past as it opens up a door of sin Don’t remember how Don’t remember where Just remember how the darkness crept on into that stare I don’t wanna lose what’s been running on my mind I don’t wanna lose what’s been running on my mind And time is passing by Slow down and waste your time Hang on nothing is mine Lay down and waste your mind And time is passing by Slow down and waste your time Hang on nothing is mine Lay down and waste your mind

Don't you know it's been so slow moving right along without you It's been running on my mind And don't you know I've sinked so low since the last time we spoke I've run out of light Growing up, your life's in motion I lay in the corner of the room I'm waking up when things get better Cause I don't really wanna feel that too Don't you know it's felt so wrong never hanging out beside you I've been feeling quite unkind And don't you know it's been so long since the last time we were close Have I run out of time Growing up, your life's in motion I lay in the corner of the room I'm waking up when things get better Cause I don't really wanna feel that too I don't wanna leave This place comforts me I don't wanna stay And slowly fade away Growing up, your life's in motion I lay in the corner of the room I'm waking up when things get better Cause I don't really wanna feel that too

Bee's Knees 03:29
You got me breathing out All this poisonous air You got me freaking out You want me to bail And I was often fascinated by the ghost running in the air You got me feeling stupid I wanna put my hands around you bad Want you to tell me Well hey whatcha doing that’s not fair And when I’m feeling a lot on my mind You know I just fucking stare And if it’s possible imposters are in your brain You got me feeling disfigured Ahh but this is just what I needed I don’t really care what’s been on your mind Long as I care you can leave me to die But I really don’t mind Don’t make me think about it I’ve been running away Everyone talks about it I don’t know what to say And now I’m always being followed by a voice running in my head You got me on the pavement Sometimes it makes me wish I was there Want you to tell me Well hey whatcha doing that’s not fair And if I’m doing something wrong You gotta tell me what’s up And I’ve been doing what I can I’ve got these fucked up feelings Ahh but this is just what I needed I don’t really care what’s been on your mind Long as I care you can leave me to die But I really don’t mind

Walking down on the street I see you unfortunately A dick doing dickhead things Don’t tell me your name I know what you will say It’s circling around me You say it when you’re wasted And tell me it’s fake You asshole You make me feel cold You fucking asshole You make me feel When I’m just trying to figure things out Walking around town Keep hearing a stupid sound I turn when I look around You’re chilling it’s great I know what you will think And share with your stupid friends You think that you’re progressive But really you’re fake You asshole You make me feel cold You fucking asshole You make me feel When I’m just trying to figure things out What’s the point in looking at the clouds If you’re in the way Asshole You make me feel cold I’m such an asshole It makes me feel Don’t tell me Don’t tell me it’s fake When all you do is stare at the wall When I tell you that I wanna I wanna be brave But now it’s just too damn hard to stop

Teeth 01:27
Fucked up sleep rotations Got a weird feeling in my face I’ll stare at the ceiling Grind my teeth Something about it just tastes so sweet to me I just can’t sleep I just can’t sleep Piercing into your soul I really thought that you were my home Fucked up mind is racing Feeling my heartbeat palpitations Maybe you’re sleepy but not like me Something about it just tastes so sweet to me I just can’t sleep I just can’t sleep

Lately at night night I’ve felt so cold I feel like I could die I have never fit that mold But I feel so confined As I sink into the puddles of my bed I’m wondering if I should turn it red Take my place Watch you pass it by I’m chasing after traces of past light I hope you know what I feel inside I hope you know what I feel at night Lately today I’ve felt so strange I don’t know what is right I have never felt so lazy I’ll just say I’m tired As I slip into the darkness of my room I lay awake till sunrise Goodnight moon Take my place Watch you pass it by I’m chasing after traces of past light I hope you know what I feel inside I hope you know what I feel at night Take my place Watch you pass it by I’m chasing after traces of past light I hope you know what I feel inside I hope you know what I feel at night

Lil Cowgirl 06:22
I woke up I was in shock I was in bed I wasn't going through your head I really thought that all the joy we entertained Meant enough to you to Stay And now I'm saying to myself what I wish I could tell you Waking up drunk Face up and on the floor Okay My little cowgirl is gone I lay without her So long You leave me sour Little cowgirl Linger on I looked up I saw your car I saw your face I saw his arm around your waist I lashed out And I was drunk And I was dazed I'll never think of you the same It felt good when I did it but now I'm just sinking Hope you sing along if you know it's about you Okay My little cowgirl is gone I lay without her So long You leave me sour Little cowgirl Linger on And I could never follow you Move on Embrace my solitude I'm taking all of this onto myself That's mine I'm taking all of this onto myself And that's fine

Mold 05:26
I hate my phone I hate your tone But I like the way You make me stay All mixed up in a row Heart’s beating way too slow All mixed up in a rush I don’t even know where to turn I hate your phone I hate the world But I like the way You make me stay All mixed up in a row Heart’s beating way too slow All mixed up in a rush I don’t even know where to turn Crowded room I miss you Crowded room I miss you Crowded room I miss you Soon as I get my head back to it All I really gotta do is focus in But that’s not safe I don’t know how much longer All I really want to do is sit right here Crowded room I miss you Crowded room I miss you

You gave a lot Of sun and grass I had a lot and wasn’t there I can feel your footprints on my head though Shut me off You know that’s what I’ll do Into the car I know that something’s up I never know what to say Don’t take me away I thought a lot And I thought bad I never thought you were the plant I can feel your footprints on my chest though Shut me off You know that’s tried and true Into the car I know that something’s up I never know what to say Don’t take me away Hiding in your dreams at night Hiding in your dreary mind And it’s not like I’m depressed Just sleeping all day long When the feeling in your chest Says give up what you want Into the car I know that something’s up I never know what to say Don’t take me away
