The Wait 02:18
I fell in love with the wait When I had memories to create Missed out on a perfect scene Something I wish I could've seen My bones have turned into stone And have killed the opportunity I can't help being alone Though I need the community Everyone is marching on To the beat of the drums And I'm still here, getting lost I can’t follow ‘cause I'm dumb (And I'm still here, getting lost I can’t follow ‘cause I'm dumb) My body's crushed by despair Because I passed up on my share “Lill, that was two months ago” But I still want my chance to throw Everyone is marching on To the beat of the drums And I'm still here, getting lost I can’t follow ‘cause I'm dumb (Break) Everyone is marching on To the beat of the drums And I'm still here, getting lost I can’t follow ‘cause I'm dumb

I think we’ve been here long enough Someone else may want a turn Moving on is always tough But it's better than to burn Things were fun but now they’re chores Let’s write the final page Honestly I was getting bored Started feeling like a cage Somebody’s sunset is waiting to fall Let’s wrap this up and go back home Somebody’s sunset is waiting to fall Now the wind no longer blows We've exhausted all the melodies They're sounding pretty rough All the tricks we had up our sleeves Are filled with webs and dust We could come back some other time But I think for now we should step to the side Somebody’s sunset is waiting to fall Let’s wrap this up and go back home Somebody’s sunset is waiting to fall Now the wind no longer blows We should go home We should go home We should go home We should go home Somebody’s sunset is waiting to fall Let’s wrap this up and go back home Somebody’s sunset is waiting to fall Now the wind no longer blows Somebody’s sunset is waiting to fall Let’s wrap this up and go back home Somebody’s sunset is waiting to fall Now the wind no longer blows

My Geometry 03:39
What happened to the playground? What happened to the fun? Just rows of beige and brown Until the day is done My eyes, they once were sunny But now they're both destroyed Since when did I need money To feel an inch of joy My brain can’t hold this weight I’ll cry shining your shoes I’m told to sit and wait But this game, I always lose My eyelids can’t stay open I'm sobbing at my screen I’m told to to keep on checking But I just want to scream I have no point in being here Why should i trade love for a career I’m not the shape I’m meant to be I've lost all my geometry The stars once shined down here But they've all seemed to crash The cigar in your mouth makes it clear Drink their blood till they collapse Asking for money every weekend It's gonna drink until there's nothing left Why can't I stay here sprawled on my bed Let's hope this all turns out good in the end Asking for money every weekend It's gonna drink until there's nothing left Why can't I stay here sprawled on my bed Let's hope this all turns out good in the end I have no point in being here Why should i trade love for a career I’m not the shape I’m meant to be I've lost all my geometry

Paper Tiara 03:38
Chewed down to the bone Razor burning, flames Let me walk on my own Driving me insane Knotted stomach, sick Tear my neck out now Blanket made of bricks Please let me know how This crown is temporary So make the most of it Rip apart my royalty My body starts to split This crown is temporary So make the most of it Rip apart my royalty My body starts to split It’s so cold in here Too weak to get through Shut away the tears Please let the good be true This crown is temporary So make the most of it Rip apart my royalty My body starts to split This crown is temporary So make the most of it Rip apart my royalty My body starts to split This crown is temporary So make the most of it Rip apart my royalty My body starts to split This crown is temporary So make the most of it Rip apart my royalty My body starts to split

Throw out your mirrors We will reflect for you Regardless how you feel We already know what’s true We don’t hear her We don’t want any blues Close your eyes and kneel And praise our royal shoes We’ll cut your hair Make it something good You wont need to talk back There's no reason why you should The experts know it all Who I am, that's up to them Who am I to question them They're experts after all Hear our thoughts out Now repeat them to yourself Now they’re stuck up there And steam has been expelled You ain’t the only one You aren’t a special voice No need to hide away Just stop the needless noise The experts know it all Who I am, that's up to them Who am I to question them They're experts after all Already seen it all Why would I bother them? Who am I to question them They're experts after all Do I even bother now? Everything will get shut down Science says I should just bow To everyone in town Do I even bother now? (You’ve proved what we thought) Everything will get shut down (You say you’re strong but you’re not) Science says I should just bow (Just admit that you’re wrong) To everyone in town (You’ve proved what we thought) The experts know it all Who I am, that's up to them Who am I to question them They're experts after all Already seen it all Why would I bother them? Who am I to question them They're experts after all

I Know 03:07
She's coming back tonight I am waiting at the door Like a dog waits for their owner Every night The driveway lights are turned on So she knows that I'm excited I wonder if she's missed this place Or not Her arrival has me charging At the door so I can hold her But she heads right for the bedroom The feeling’s crushing “I’ve figured out my dreams” She said “no reason for me to stay here” And now i'm falling i'm falling down “People grow, my dear Like trees in the spring It's nothing you should fear I'll still hear you sing” I swallow and I say “I'm sorry, I know that things must change” Will I come back to earth Now my gravity is leaving If it was this easy to go Was there much worth “Will you still hold onto me?” Slowly escapes from my lips She pulls me in and tells me How things will be “People grow, my dear Like trees in the spring It's nothing you should fear I'll still hear you sing” I swallow and I say “I'm sorry, I know that things must change” “People grow, my dear Like trees in the spring It's nothing you should fear I'll still hear you sing” I swallow and I say “I'm sorry, I know that things must change”

Peach Skies 03:10
Peach coloured sky Make me feel alright Make me feel just fine Peach coloured sky Make me feel alright Make me feel alright I never wanna die I just want a different world Like the one I dreamed When i was a little girl Tails intertwined Just let it all unfurl I will be safer there In a pretty little world Peach coloured sky Make me feel alright Make me feel just fine Peach coloured sky Make me feel alright Make me feel alright Take me home with you Away from these vicious claws They grow from my brain And attack me without a cause Anxiety ensues ‘Cause joy’s against the law Can you bring me inside I'm on my final straw Peach coloured sky Make me feel alright Make me feel just fine Peach coloured sky Make me feel alright Make me feel alright I never wanna die I just want a different world Like the one I dreamed When i was a little girl

I think it would be sweet To spend some time with you again I’ll just have to find a seat And kick it when I’m ready to go Two silent years have passed I think it’s time I come on by Then together we’ll be cast In numbers meant to torture us I’ll chase after you Anything for that smile Maybe I’ll be held again If I go the same way I hope they understand That I did this ‘cause i need my friends They may miss my hands But I missed yours so goddamn much Would it be okay To show you what I’ve made since then I thank you everyday For driving me this far in life I’ll chase after you Anything for that smile Maybe I’ll be held again If I go the same way I’ll catch up to you Maybe I will smile Maybe I’ll be held again If I go the same way I thought it would be sweet To spend some time with you again But now it's hitting me That I've hurt everyone I love so much I’ll chase after you Anything for that smile Maybe I’ll be held again If I go the same way I’ll catch up to you Maybe I will smile Maybe I’ll be held again If I go the same way

Vee 03:50
Sweet in the moment Lime tasting later It’s an ornament No fruits of labor Keep on doing it Though I will feel bad Times that I’ve been bit For small parts of glad Will I be this way forever? Will I get it all together? With the ones I really love Need to keep myself above Thinking makes me sick Scared someone will cry Blood starts to grow thick Feed into my lie I keep on pulling this Piling up all of this shit I'm trying to break the kiss But I'm pulled in by the lips I keep on pulling this Piling up all of this shit I'm trying to break the kiss But I'm pulled in by the lips Will I be this way forever? Will I get it all together? With the ones I really love Need to keep myself above

I don’t like the colours now Everything is so washed out I’ve walked this street a thousand times When will I hear that brand new sound It could be anything Just anything Leave space for the prey Chew right through my day Give me some more time Before I step back in line Could be a minute Just a minute Where is my joy? It was there but now it’s gone All these broken toys Used to make me so happy I look at all these old pictures When people kept their lights on The ocean never seems to end I hear nothing, not a cough Please say anything Really anything Where is my joy? It was there but now it’s gone All these broken toys Used to make me so happy Where is my joy? It was there but now it’s gone Why am I annoyed Why am I annoyed Where is my joy? It was there but now it’s gone All these broken toys Used to make me so happy I don’t like the colours now Everything is so washed out I’ve walked this street a thousand times When will I hear that brand new sound It could be anything Just anything
