Always

I know I said figure it out.
I know I sit alone again.
Alone again, I know.
We're late on our rent, always.
My salary spent, always.
So much to resent, always.
Will you shake my hand when I walk away?
You've had enough of me.

Do You Care?
03:33
|

You must have heard, you didn't see,
I wasn't where I wouldn't be.
I try to lie, but speak the truth,
I'm holding on, forgetting youth.
You were wrong.
Attempt to clean but make a mess,
A boring man with common sense.
Concern myself with day to day,
Misunderstand the greater plan.
You were wrong.
Subconscious unbalanced, I'm half asleep; do you care?

Game of Patience
04:04

Close the door and take a seat, let's talk about your attitude.
There's a man across the street, he's pointing and yelling at you.
It's a game of patience,
And you're slipping over.
You should be golden brown.
You won't have the chance to speak until I have granted it you.
Shuffle of and drag your feet to live your life in solitude.
It's a game of patience,
And you're slipping over.
You should be golden brown.
You can't point a finger in the right direction if when you're looking down, you don't yet have a hand.

Neverwill

There's so much time no one can find.
I could watch the days float away.
No days.
Feel the temperature rise and fall.
How I feel now I don't know at all.
No more.
No more.
If you venture out, I have a couch.
I can show you round this place I found.
I found.
These cliffs they lean over caves I've been.
So hard to read; fall asleep.
No sleep.
No sleep.
We were talking about meeting up, but now we never will.

Sept.

I know the way I'm going, your face is glowing.
I wrote the page I'm turning, the flames I'm burning.
September battling,
I was walking by myself,
Now I'm shaking at the knees,
Now I'm drowning from the weight of it all.
Drowning from the weight of it all.
I still remember when,
We could walk to Dairy Bell,
Eat our ice cream in the park,
Now I'm lucky if I'm walking at all.

Ask Anyone
03:36
|
|||
I could hear you from over there,
Laughing with all your friends,
And just as you close the door,
I'm swallowed up by the night.
A collection of tiny things,
Photos of family,
The clothes that I used to wear,
Washing up on the sand.
You know I could drag you under,
You know I can.
Ask anyone they'd never answer,
Ask anyone, except for you.

Always Erase
02:43
|
|||
There's a place I'm going,
I hope I can see you there,
And if you can't make it,
I will drag you by the hand.
Sleep on concrete, wake up freezing.
I can always erase the rules I place.
Everyone deserves a body they can call their own.
The decision maker, making calls on what they know.
Sleep on concrete, wake up freezing.
I can always erase the rules I place on myself.
