Desolate You 03:59
you’re just sitting there begging for the sun to die you’re so slack everyone you satirize you’re just waiting there hoping to be recognized but you have no shape and/or substance desolate you your smile’s an emblem of your hatred desolate you your purpose is to spread the hurt that you feel you won’t be ignored and always love attracting fights you can’t stand the silence all your words are meant to slight and now i’m so mixed up struggling to understand that you have no taste or awareness desolate you your smile’s an emblem of your hatred desolate you your purpose is to spread the hurt that you feel can you feel it I hope you feel can you feel it pouring down? can you feel it I know you feel it can you feel it pouring down on you? desolate you your smile’s an emblem of your hatred desolate you your purpose is to spread the hurt that you feel desolate you

Complicate 03:32
i’m searching the room trying to find myself pictures don’t work anymore i lift my hand to my face but still see no one is lost forgetting who you are? should i fight or let everything go tonight? holding on for something something future but right at hand i’m still holding on for something it’s a risk, but here i am should i fight or let everything go tonight? holding on for something something future but right at hand holding on for something it’s a risk, but here i am every time i get so close and pull away every time i get so close and i complicate i complicate i’m having memories that are only vaguely mine is lost forgetting who you are? holding on for something something future but right at hand i’m still holding on for something it’s a risk, but here i am

Strange Hope 02:48
a moment i see i understand so true it slips away like sand a day that i feel so well arranged but then the reel runs out and i think to myself what are these reflections for? i’m so frustrated and confused that i should still keep hope strange hope could a few seconds sum up the world and be lost in time? i can’t write i can’t transcribe that fast all that i knew i soon forgot and i think to myself what are these reflections for? i’m so frustrated and confused that i should still keep hope strange hope i’m chasing echoes and shadows and shadows and echoes i’m chasing the wind i can’t escape this vanity

so much time making plans but they never leave the paper life on pause and lost in dreams the type that i’m too scared to live i don’t want to live in theory is safety worth the regret i don’t want to live in theory am i safely loosing? then a thought that makes me stop i can’t even breathe or reason looking backwards from the end i’ll hate myself for staying here i don’t want to live in theory is safety worth the regret i don’t want to live in theory am i safely losing my mind? i’m conflicted contradicting will i ever get it right? will i ever get it? will i ever will i ever stop?

Walls 04:28
i hear you crying through the wall groans that are so deep they fracture bones i hear your body hit the floor i want so badly to open the door, but I can’t sometimes i don’t want to feel and i don’t have perfect words for anyone can you hear me screaming “what went wrong?” can you hear me screaming? it’s all i can do i just can't tell her to be strong why am i so afraid to say something wrong? for now? sometimes i don’t want to feel and i don’t have perfect words for anyone can you hear me screaming “what went wrong?” can you hear me screaming? it’s all i can do can i even comfort you? i'm disgusted to think there’s nothing i can do can i even comfort you? i’ve grown suspicious of this world so suspicious of this world that we outgrew can you hear me screaming “what went wrong?” can you hear me screaming? it’s all i can do
