When both sides are pressing in and there isn’t room to breathe With the burden on your shoulders telling you you’re weak When the verdict’s rolling in and everyone agrees We’re adrift in a sea of endless browns and greens It happened hopelessly Nothing short of reality We’d had everything that we needed Not to die for the next day or three The hot anxiety hung thick in the air but it was easily Almost not there cause between our stares the mood was somber and we weren’t prepared So bring us back If we don’t return Headed on the right path A lesson learnt Mistakes within grasp Shouldn’t have to hurt this bad Backwards down a road somebody else had paved Breaking into biscuits whenever we lost our way Broken strings of conflict under shelter from the rain But then silent realization when worry turned to pain So bring us back If we don’t return Headed on the right path A lesson learnt Mistakes within grasp Shouldn’t have to hurt this bad Tell us that we’re sensible When we’re clearly nonsensical Don’t know if it’s where you’ll find us Hope we won’t get left behind Tell us that we’re sensible When we’re clearly nonsensical Don’t know if it’s where you’ll find us Hope we won’t get left behind

Grey matter 01:46
I have a really sore throat But I feel the need to take this opportunity To sing my voice out vigorously ‘Cause I feel a thousand emotions at once And I can’t care enough to pick out all the good ones So I’ll take this to my grave Till I learn how to fake being okay Cause my brain is fucked up in so many goddamn ways Here’s my mortality, let’s talk about that Cause I cannot tell if I’d rather rot in heaven or in hell Either way some dumb day I’m gonna die And the world’ll keep on spinning like it did when I was still alive So I’ll take this to my grave Till I learn how to fake being okay Cause my brain is fucked up in so many goddamn ways

Not too long ago, We took our curtains down cause they were dirty So we took them to the laundry Now that they’re cleaner We’ve hung them back up again But decided to arrange them differently (wooaah) Now the curtains are in all the wrong rooms and everything (wooaah) Looks incredibly confusing to me My windows used to be covered In white and stripy cloth Well, now they’re not. These guest room curtains now belong to me They’re cool grey with silver leaves And now that I take notice there’s some spots (wooaah) The laundry guys didn’t do the best job (wooaah) But I cant complain cause idk how to wash them myself Never once did I think That the pattern of a fabric Could change so much about a room Interior designers Would be infuriated at the sight of These obstructions to our window views I suppose, for a good laugh You could try it Too

B nice 01:42
What do you want from me? Don’t even know why you get mad so easy If you’re feeling angry Just breathe and let it be I’m not talking to myself Unless we go back to before 2012 If you could just listen, we’re tryna help But have it your way, suit yourself You’ll be alright You’ve just gotta learn how to forgive Things will be fine Someday you’ll get that’s how we live So next time stay calm, And try to be nice So next time stay calm and be nice

Wind 02:26
When the wind blows and the summer sun is glowing All I know is that I don’t feel at home Feelings come and go but what I want to feel the most Is warmth and hoping that I won’t have to be alone I feel like I’m drowning in insanity Will you be there to catch me when I fall to my knees Hold my hand, I know I’m still unsteady but My head and heart are heavier than they seem to be In the meantime please will you bear with me I know I’ll get better when I’m ready But for now within reality I can’t really breathe Sun set clouds are rolling by so slowly But my heart is beating heavily, just like it’s meant to be I'll heal soon though, will you be there for me I’ll heal soon so will you believe in me

Static 02:19
Wake me up when I care enough I’m not getting up just yet nuh-uh I’ve not given up, I’m just a little stuck I guess it means that I’m not working hard enough Why don’t I do what I’m meant to Even though it never should’ve gotten this tough I’m wishing my future self Good luck, good luck x2
