In My Head

This world is far gone
And everyone is sick of me
Am I doing it wrong
Or is it just the way things should be
Undecided
On the person I want to become
I’ll lose my shit
And everything will be good again
Chorus:
Let’s go down to
The black and white cemetery
We’ll turn the crosses
Upside down for god to see
Let’s go down to
The black and white cemetery
We’ll dig our graves
And return to where we should be
I want to live
In dreams of faded summer warmth
But I can’t give
Into the sober cold
We’ll walk alone
Silence makes me feel inside
When I get home
I’ll lie down and pretend to be dead
Chorus
Bridge:
I need a pill
And a good talking to
I don’t want to do this
But I don’t want to lose you

Done Now

Remember all those nights
When we didn’t hate each other’s guts
Running out of your basement with your dad coming down those stairs
Remember all those times
When I could touch every inch of your skin
And we didn’t worry about anything in the world underneath your covers
Chorus:
But that’s all done
It’s gone now
You’ve erased each memory
And you’ve ended up hating me
But that’s all done
You’re gone now
And I’m left here feeling sorry for myself
Thinking of you
And how everything you said was a lie
You’ve wasted it all and we’ll never talk like this again
Thinking of nothing
All of the time
Just hoping that somehow everything will be put back perfectly
Chorus
Bridge
Why’d I do that
Why’d I do anything
To make you feel bad
When I have no feeling
Why’d I do that
Why’d I do anything at all
Sitting here all alone
I’m so gone

Wasted
04:45
|
|||
|
Some of the shit I do is so useless and stupid
Rolls of film with pictures of burning crosses
Most days I do nothing and loop it
Smoking by the river with you
Chorus:
Kids cracked out
Crying
Never realizing
They’re lucky
And wasted
Screaming at the walls of my house
The girl with the blue hair smoking a cigarette
Empty alleys at night could be my home forever
She might be the worst person I’ve ever met
I don’t really care anymore
Chorus
My dad’s girlfriend’s laugh makes me want to kill
I don’t belong in these sad boring places
Dreams of him looking at me with a bloody loaded gun
I don’t really care anymore
Chorus
Bridge:
I’m so tired of everyone
There’s a loaded gun
To my head

Pray Slow

I don’t really want to feel like that
It’s like it’s all coming to a close
Though it’s really just the beginning
Glassy eyes and powdered nose
You say you’re gonna die young
I hope that’s not true
Cause I don’t have anyone else
To be with but you
Chorus:
I thrive on perfection none the less
I laugh at regret
I’m trying to do this nicely
But it’s hard to forget
The things we do everyday
Don’t change a thing
Hoping you’ll stay here
Cause I’m really trying
Every sound and word means something
And changes how we think or feel
Blurred and dark but beautiful
I don’t think you’ll ever heal
Doesn't matter what we do
So why not do it all
Long and restless days
We’ll wait for it to fall
Chorus
We could really do anything
Stay out all night and walk
Small things can make it better
I just can’t wait for you to talk
People who think they’re better
I’ll daydream all day
Warm covers and images
Nothing but decay
Bridge:
To bow down
And pray slow
The sad sounds
Of distance
I’m all out
Of patience
From trying to make you realize

All The Way
04:27

First of all
All I hope I’m never coming back again
I hope my life gets ruined somehow
So I got nothing to
Lose and can just run away
Alone
Chorus:
All the way
All the way from here to you and back and nothing changed
Nothing at all not in any way
And you always say
I’m so angry passive aggressive
But there’s no other way
With you
But then again
I get caught up with my stupid fucking emotions
But there’s no other way with me
Leaving your house
Unhappy with my fucking self
The way things change
Chorus
It’s so hard
To talk or look or even think of you
Anymore
In my head
I don’t even think of you as existing
