Deathbed 01:05
So many things we forget say to the ones we love Until it’s too late and our words are lost I won’t allow myself to be the victim of a callous institution that pumps cold blood Please know at this moment how much I love you I get sick when I think of a world without you We can mean anything to someone, but you mean everything to me Can’t stand the thought Of a world without you I know this sounds awful but it’s true If one of us has to go first I hope I die before you do

Heart & Soul 01:08
Righteous indignation amounts to thinly veiled contempt Your heart’s not as big as you think Fabricated virtue comes from misdirected shame Your heart’s not as big as you think Keep telling yourself it’s all true Let your arrogance confirm your views While you tear down everyone around you Never let your insecurities show Just sit atop your pedestal

Glass Houses 00:56
You bare bloodstained teeth Crimson from the countless times you've bitten your tongue Fragile Frail Weak The words you spit tear down defenses, go off like a bomb You tear me apart Now with my confidence off and my self respect shattered (break) I'll try to pick up the pieces form off of the floor

Living With Ghosts (free) 01:38
Living With Ghosts Well I can't sleep Unwelcome thoughts of you out holes in all my dreams Panic sits inside my chest so I can't breathe Your name becomes the only word I speak I hate what it's done to me I'm still living with these thoughts I'm still living with you words And it's fucking eating me alive And it persists A throbbing ache built up by pain and bitterness And in the end it's all just fucking meaningless I still let it take control, I don't resist I hate that I'm doing this Consumed by vapor, ink, and lead Unending conflict with the dead No sighted exit No release Just let me rest, just give me peace

Postman 01:43
I check the paper everyday still haven't come across your name the 30 words or less that sum up your significance I still think back to sunny days perhaps my fondest memory of you is when you looked at her to say "when you get older you forget I'll do my best to keep you dear but if I slip please understand when you get older you forget but that doesn't change what you meant" The promise that I never kept was one I made and never meant you try to escape registration while I struggle with visitation I haven't seen you in four years it's due to cowardice and fear that when I show up you won't be there "when you get older you forget I'll do my best to keep you dear but if I slip please understand when you get older you forget but that doesn't change what you meant" ...but I won't forget

Dumb Luck 02:13
Vision blurred from constant reassurance you can’t see the world around you changing they pin you and go through your pockets but you’re happy so you won’t say a thing boy born without consequence and when it all falls apart you find yourself in another sunshine state and yet you act as though it all comes back to haunt you at the worst sort of time in the worst kind of way But you know I’m here for you Don’t worry Just call me You don’t have to spend The whole night sleeping in the rain
