Hollow

there’s a lie
that we all tell
I don’t mind
trading comfort for a change
free will doesn’t feel free
anymore
waiting for some sign
wasting time
breath in hollow air
nothing’s there
I wanna trust myself again
but instead
all my needs bend
to fit in
I will sit still with my doubt
real life doesn’t feel real
anymore
waiting for some sign
wasting time
breath in hollow air
I’m still here
I wanna know myself again

Funny
03:13
|
|||
if I’m being on honest, I’m not feeling great
I think it’ll take some time and a couple mistakes
I think it’s my ego that’s been bringing me down
I spend so much time with my head up in the clouds
it’s funny
Melody let me watch her dance with her eyes closed
I saw the petals fall from the aging rose
I saw the garden that she tended out back
“isn’t life so normal” she looked at me and laughed
it’s funny

Clumsy
03:29
|

would you rather avoid me than
admit you feel guilty
you were clumsy with your heart and
it was doomed right from the start
it’s kind of tragic, but it’s fine
I don’t mind
we’re just stuck in the wrong timeline
you’re a tease
but it’s not like you know me well
an underlying sense of grief that
can’t be consoled by anything
I don’t wanna be a bitch, but
I think you need to grow up
well here’s the song that you thought
you would want
I bet you’re glad that I’m not fragile
I’m too cool
but it’s not like I know you well

It's Cool
03:10
|
|||
flying high, fully aware
we can’t help but sit and stare
silence breaks, I don’t know what to think
holding feelings in the air
and all that time my head was gone
I’d never felt so numb
but waiting’s just my game
and living’s worth some pain
and what’s the point of anything
if I always feel the same
I could tell you anything
I could tell you everything
always
chasing that same feeling but it starts
fading
Seattle seems so different when it’s not
raining
nothing that I do or say today
will mean a thing
but I’m not that devastated
no
it’s cool
it’s cool
it’s cool

Kool-Aid
02:51
|
|||
empty my cup just to refill it
never good at saying what I mean
pour out the Kool-Aid and I'll drink it
can you feel it coursing through my veins?
it's not what I want
it's not what I want
it's not what I want
drawing a line straight through my thoughts
pull out the knife and clean it off
surrender to the fear that lives inside me
stare into to the mirror and meet my shame
it's not what I want
it's not what I want
it's not what I want
just sometimes
it's not what I want
it's not what I want
it's not what I want
it's not what I want
it's not what I want

Chemtrails
03:58
|
|||
I’m always saying yes
but when it comes around, I don’t wanna leave my house
at the time, everything felt new
and one night could really change you
someone like me can’t let go of anything
moments move like chemtrails in my mind
now I want more, thinking I deserve less
maybe I’ll be happier this time
the warmth of everything
I waited, and it came
we’ll be good, or at least we should
what more can we really ask for
someone like me can’t let go of anything
moments move like chemtrails in my mind
now I want more, thinking I deserve less
apathy is difficult to hide
I’m not used to feeling what I choose to
hanging onto words you might’ve said
now I’m weightless, like I’ve been erased I’m
painting us a picture in my head

Blue
04:26
|
|||
faking it big time
so I can hit my stride
man, it feels good to be alive
and in a moment
it all could end
I gotta get off the internet
out of the blue
out of the blue
ooh
searching for meaning
something I never had
why does everything normal feel so bad
out of the blue
out of the blue
ooh
now all your anger will just turn around on you
that thing where misery and rage become confused
you suck the air out of the room
don’t get upset about it, it’s gonna pass
tell all your friends about it, they’re gonna laugh
don’t get upset about it, it’s gonna pass
tell all your friends about it

Tethered
03:28
|
|||
a lost cause in their eyes
you’re only darkness
what does it really mean
to be good like them
drawn to you
seeking truth
their careful words make me
all the more fragile
you’re honest to no end
pure and volatile
drawn to you
seeking truth
pieces of me seeping out
of cracks in all I know
what do I hold on to?
or do I just let go?

I-90 Bridge
04:53
|
|||
riding bikes across the I-90 bridge
9 at night, this feels like flying
flashing headlights and the waves reflect the sun
when you said, “I feel like dying”
I don’t wanna hear the things you have to say
it’s just the adrenaline talking
don’t share your feelings about me
I’m sorry I just don’t have the capacity
cut the water with the sharp knife of your hand
never seen a stroke so smooth
same long fingers that can carry any mood
and relieve the pain I carry
you can stay awhile
but you can’t sleep in my bed
tell your girlfriend she’s got nothing to fear
I’m set in my head
my body’s a different story

Laugh
05:15
|
|||
let’s walk
cause I want the time to talk
with my friends on the way and
it’s all for a laugh and
I’d do anything for that, but
when I lose myself again
with the little thoughts in my head
remember that summer we spent living instead
I wanted it to last, but it’s all in my head
cringing
when I take the time to think
of all the ways I feel ashamed
well it’s all for a laugh and
I’d do anything for that, but
when I lose myself again
with the little thoughts in my head
remember that summer we spent living instead
I wanted it to last, but it’s all in my head
I wanted it to last, but it’s all in my head
I really wanna know
how did you grow old
never wondering
maybe this is it
all there is to get
make me new then
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh

Like That
03:33
|
|||
we stayed up late
I used to do that
I don’t know why I never called you back
that time you said,
“who cares what they all think,
you and I are gonna do big things”
you’re the one who knew me like that, like that
I’m the one who’s holding me back, me back
you burned too bright
and way too fast
someone as pure as that just can’t last
you’re the one who knew me like that, like that
I’m the one who’s holding me back, me back
you’re the one who knew me like that, like that
I’m the one who’s holding me back, me back
