Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Such a deep sleep
Forgot to breathe
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Redundancy
A boring thing
No in-betweens
Of the extremes
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Clouds are not as soft as they seem
Stars always glisten the same
Stuck
Stuck
Stuck
Stuck
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in a dream
God, I just want to wake up
God, I just want to wake up
God, I just want to wake up
God, I just want to wake up
God, I just want to wake up
God, I just want to wake up
God, I just want to wake up
God, I just want to wake up
Up up up up up
Up up up up up
Up up up up up
Up up up up up

Maybe Blue

Your hair has been growing longer
Food in the fridge is going bad
The plants are in need of water
It's so much harder when you're sad
Headlights drawing circles
Chasing our own tails
Getting dizzy with the seasons
I just want this ride to end
Burning under the bright lights
I would rather run and hide
How much more do we need to see?
I already know where I wanna be
Doesn't this mean we have no choice but to change?
Doesn't this mean we have no choice but to change?
Doesn't this mean we have no choice but to change?
Doesn't this mean
Can we go back to when the ceiling was breathing?
Can we go back to when the wood grain was dripping?
Can we go back to when the ceiling was breathing?
Can we go back to when the wood grain was dripping?
Doesn't this mean we have no choice but to change?
Doesn't this mean we have no choice but to change?
Doesn't this mean we have no choice but to change?
Doesn't this mean

Idealized
03:41

I never said it was an easy conversation,
Just not one I need to have with you
I have my reasons, which I'll live with
Don't need permission from you
Negotiations of timing
When it's all the same thing
Using life as a consequence
Nevermind the harm it's causing
Ooooo
Ooooo
Ooooo
No apology
No apology
No apology
Don't wanna go through life
Seeking validation
From a stranger or a neighbor or an institution
Before you form your picket lines,
Look within your picket fences
Your fantasy was never something I needed to live with
Ooooo
Ooooo
Ooooo
No apology
No apology
No apology
No apology means no apology
No apology means no apology
No apology means no apology
No apology means no apology

Deep Sage
02:54
|

It was clear where I was standing
But ahead it was a deep sage
It was clear where I was standing
But ahead it was deep deep deep
I have a tendency
To get in over my head lately
Hypnotized by the branches bouncing
Wishing that it could be that easy
And it seems so bleak
So we close our eyes and breathe
And try to be here now
But I don't know how
And it seems so bleak
So we close our eyes and breathe
And try to be here now
But look around
It was clear where I was standing
But ahead it was so deep
It was clear where I was standing
But ahead it was deep deep deep
And lately the greater meaning
Being unknowing
It feels too heavy lately
It feels too heavy
Try to count down from ten
But keep getting lost in my own head
Try to be here now
But look around and around and around and around and
And it seems so bleak
So we close our eyes and breathe
And try to be here now
But I don't know how
And it seems so bleak
So we close our eyes and breathe
And try to be here now
But look around

A Welcome Change
03:34
|

Found myself upside down, folded in half at the waist
Separating vertebrae, to pull from anything
Looking for a feeling
Looking for a word
Looking for a memory
To strike some kind of chord
And it isn't like me to stop
Isn't like me to stop to breathe
Fill it up, empty it out
Release, repeat.
Usually can't get out once I've opened it up
Steps of a ribcage, too much to climb up
Looking for a feeling
Looking for a word
Looking for a memory
To strike some kind of chord
And it isn't like me to stop
Isn't like me to stop to breathe
Fill it up, empty it out
Release, repeat.
And it isn't like me to be still
Isn't like me to wait
Fill it up, empty it out
Release, repeat.
Breathing space between vertebrae
Maybe nothing's a welcome change
Breathing space between vertebrae
Maybe nothing's a welcome change

Overwatering
02:12
|

I asked my guides to send me a sign
But it never came
If the answer's inside of me
Then I must be the one to blame
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I wanted to give my love
Clumsily poured too much
Now I can't take it back
I tried to plant it but it just rot
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
Held it in my hand
Forced my thumb in
Ripped the skin
Pulled it back
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
I took the sweetness from the inside
Softening
Losing shape
Becoming weak
Overwatering

No Release
01:48
|

It comes creeping, crawls up the throat
Lungs tighten, nowhere to go
Can't control it, It's in the blood
Can't control it, It's in the blood
What if the stakes change, never escape
Muscles tensen, legs shake
Can't control it, It's in the blood
Can't control it, It's in the blood
Feeling nauseous, no release
Getting breathless, it's hard to think
Can't control it, It's in the blood
Can't control it, It's in the blood
It's too dark, can't comprehend
Are my eyes shut, or open?
The light cannot escape from sedation
I'm getting out, I'm not asking permission
The light cannot escape from sedation
I'm getting out, I'm not asking permission

The Sharpening
02:57

What's better than a brand-new pencil?
One that comes flat, which you could sharpen to a point
And if you stabbed me in the chest over again
You'd expect me to clean up the mess
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Save the trees and carve it into me
Allow your whole world to see
But have you asked yourself if that's what you think
Why would you want me around anyway?
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's not me
Maybe it's the sharpening
It's the sharpening
It's the
Maybe it's the sharpening
It's the sharpening
It's the
Maybe it's the sharpening
It's the sharpening
It's the
Maybe it's the sharpening
It's the sharpening
It's the

Spaced Out
01:44
|

I need space
I need space
I need space
I need space
So close I can taste your breath
No pauses to wonder what's next
Gonna do something I might regret
If you don't take several steps back
I need space I need space I need space I need space
I need space I need space I need space I need space
I need space
I just wanna be spaced out!
I just need to be spaced out!
I just wanna be spaced out!
I just need to be spaced out!
I've got five fingers that have got something to say
It'd be best for us if you'd just go away
I'm so damn bored I could C-R-Y
Running your mouth asking to die, die, die
I need space
I just wanna be spaced out!
I just need to be spaced out!
I just wanna be spaced out!
I just need to be spaced out!
I just wanna be spaced out!
I just need to be spaced out!
I just wanna be spaced out!
I just need to be - I need space

Tell me
Tell me
What do you want of my love?
I can't seem to give enough
What do you want of my patience?
I'm tired of waiting
You might not get what you want
But you'll get what you need
So tell me
Tell me
Tell me, tell me, tell me
What's an apology
If you just keep doing bad things?
What's an apology
If you just keep doing bad things?
Just keep doing bad things
Just keep doing bad things
Just keep doing bad things
Just keep doing bad things
You might not get what you want
But you'll get what you need
You might not get what you want
But you'll get what you deserve
So tell me
Tell me
Tell me, tell me, tell me
So tell me
Tell me
I'm not forcing things that don't fit
And I'm not playing dead
I'm not cowering again
And I'm not gonna hurt you back
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will
But if you try me, I will

High as night in the bathroom, fan humming
Drowning out a chance of thought, bare feet stuck
On humid artificial wood, rippled by the moisture
Harboring black mold, weighing on the air
Swaying like there's no ceiling, and like fingertips aren't stuck
Swaying like there's no ceiling, and like fingertips aren't stuck
Swaying like there's no ceiling, and like fingertips aren't stuck
Swaying like there's no ceiling, I feel so
Absent
Absent
Absent
Absent
Knees locked, feel the blood stop reaching toes
Thighs slow to separate from the bone
Strands of hair turn to clumps, matted tile corners
What I'd give to help, to make you understand
Swaying like there's no ceiling, and like fingertips aren't stuck
Swaying like there's no ceiling, and like fingertips aren't stuck
Swaying like there's no ceiling, and like fingertips aren't stuck
Swaying like there's no ceiling, I feel so
Absent
Absent
Absent
Absent
I don't know what you want me to say
You want an explanation but I can barely breathe
Brain's evaporation and I'm just trying to hold on
But I feel so
Absent
Absent
Absent
Absent
Far away from everything
Suddenly learned that dying was the cruelest thing
I could ever do to somebody who would miss me
But I can't stop feeling
Absent
Absent
Absent
Absent
Ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo
Ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo
