nails down my back like a chalkboard
i am the only one who can call your bluff
your tongue leaves a trail like a slug
i am paralyzed
i am not enough
placate your hands with a faint whisper
i am begging you
i am begging you
grip so tight i can feel my fingers blister
this is all my fault
this is all my fault
and i don't wanna die
it's just a thing i say sometimes
it's just a thing i say sometimes
and i don't feel alive
don't feel like i'm falling
feel like i'm shoved
this can't be love
this can't be

you can't save no one
who wants to be done
who can't see the sun
you can't help no one
who would rather run
who doesn't wanna go on
i just want to help
see so much of my old self
in your tiny head
they always say
give it a day
they'll come back to stay
i'm starting to see
just what they warned me
about you my bee

skin

imagine how my life could be
if i could live outside of me
if i could slip out of my skin
and maybe start over again
i'd choose a suit that wasn't mine
and when our thoughts come intertwined
i'd make believe that i was
better
there's something about being stoned
that makes me forget that i'm all alone
i fall in love with everyone
until i make them wanna run
it's hard to let anyone in
into someone else's skin

i'd like to fall asleep inside the voice you use to apologize to me
it's different than the one you used to scream
my blood is on my own hands
my friends all misunderstand
you never mean to hurt me
i just make you so fucking angry
i'll spill my guts out on the floor
so you don't have to anymore

michigan

it's always raining in michigan
i can feel it underneath my skin
still, when i leave, i just want to be back again
on your porch, you're smoking cigarettes
i never touch the stuff, scared to lose my breath
the way that i do when you mix smoke with my name
sometimes i wonder if you really feel the same
if you don't, i know that i'm the one to blame
i can't blame you

"the weed song"

i love smoking weed
it helps me calm down when i forget how to breathe
because you're not around
it makes me eat
cause when i look into a mirror, i don't like what i see
but i love smoking weed
i no longer drink
i can't control myself when i'm anxious
and i can barely breathe around the people in this bar
i'd rather go back to my house and curl up on the couch
with my cat, and maybe write a song
and definitely hit a bong
stoned and watching anime
i love to smoke my days away
roll my problems up with green until i can't feel anything at all
i love smoking weed

saving change for cigarettes
say you'll change, you never meant it
walk yourself to the liquor store
count your coins out four by four
and you
double back across the bridge
the fall is longer than the life you'll live
if you keep this up i'm scared you'll be
nothing more than a memory
and you
oughta know
i think you could grow
you're not a shitty person
no matter how often you say so
i think you could be
happy, happy
i think you could be

absence
03:35
|
|||
i've tried everything
to become me
nothing seems to work
i'm hidden in between
the seams of which i sew my hands
encapsulated, high demand
no one seems to understand
the chore of being all expanded
out to reach the company
i seek solace in those who can't
everything is nothing when you don't feel anything at all
i've tried everything

good enough
04:17
|
|||
you've got a knack for making me feel small
saying all the things that you know will make me feel like i'm nothing at all
good as gone and gone for good
i wanna feel good
or good enough
i decay
i wilt away
day after day
i decay
cut out my tongue-- i don't need it
melt off my cheeks
fingers already broken at your hands
stones replace my feet where i once stood
you make it clear to me that i'll never be good
or good enough
for you
i decay
i wilt away
day after day
i decay
