Youth 04:59
Found words Amongst desire Of an intimate night From a dusty corner From a scared child Unsure of what's next And if you ever wonder why I will tell you everything I don't have much to say, no When there isn't much to say
2.
Fawn 04:09
Dream of the sun The story of our life is long Resting on the rocks Spotted to the top, a fawn Wish, oh wish, carried by a song A dream to the mountaintop May we love our shared home The shy faun at dusk The songbird in love; They don't worry too much Moving with the pull Of a crystal valley stream Courageous salmon all the way to the sea Over the rocks, around the sharp bear claw Each day a challenge for you and me And somewhere the wish is true The harmony sought, the faun on the rocks The dream at the mountaintop
3.
Summer 03:58
It's summer and there's a lot of things on my mind Failed initiatives and friends who can't find time Time, there's something I've got too much of I need a kick to get out I hate to waste my life Hate to waste my life Clean Freak Perfectionist I wish I could be happy with less Don't get me wrong I'm happy with myself But I could really use a friend now Don't get me wrong It'll all work out But sometimes I have my doubts It's summer and there's a conflict on my mind Between the desire to be productive and the willingness to act on it I want to run with you through the park Under the stars in the sky though the trees on a warm summer night Expressions of joy and red cheeks and red eyes, and a slow motion world spins as we fall Together as we fall
4.
Homesick 03:31
Midnight A sleeping house A sister deserted And heartfelt notes Curious A puzzle piece I solve the mystery As it sleeps "I love this girl, she really shows me the world... and myself. I thought the dream was over... but now I know it's just begun."
5.
Sigh 04:26
I'm wasting my time I'm wasting my life I put my head down and waste my life A lack of interest Motivation What the hell am I waiting for We used to be so close I can't explain this I'm trying to escape this I run away from my problems And you don't care anyway We used to be so close And I am nothing that you try to forget How can you forget Looking back you were always right And it's no different this time I got the shorter end of this I'm glad you're happy And I am nothing that you try to forget How can you forget All the times we held each other Long nights together. Laughing to gether. I told you everything. My troubles were safe with you The world was a better place with you. Your warm face pressed to mine. Red and smiling.
6.
Nothing 04:15
Hopeless battle in my head Bipolar, I can't control it Nothing is what you want How you feel about everything I want to be happy Break down the walls of my troubled mind And the ink drips from my rotten mouth Rotten mouth An empty heart And an empty soul Of lost hope That I try so hard to be The fucking silence I'm not a shadow To find acceptance To find love
7.
Wasted 05:07
Cut you out of my life Two years wasted Hopeless After all, I've tried And it's hopeless And all I've done is wrong My wake of failure I know where I went wrong So go Outcast Alone Wanting to change You left me hanging and cut the string And it's hopeless And all I've done is wrong My wake of failure I know where I went wrong And it's hopeless A new period of life I open my empty arms to life
8.
3 am 05:53
Caffeine to keep me awake Oh why do I wait so long Because it towers over me, a stack of guilt Sugar rots my teeth Fidgety fingers on a busy head Chipping away at what's left What's left 3 am A sigh of relief Blank stare from a jaded mind And collapse in bed For a dreamless night
9.
Regrets 05:24
Take me away Punish my Black hole mind Selfish days Push them away Pin hole world Remove myself Never belong Out of respect Wanting to bleed into your heart Like ink on my hand from a paper scar And never again drown you in my shallow crux Into your pure heart I promise you're the best I'll ever get Past your back is the whole world and my regrets
10.
Tomorrow 06:14
In your walk In the way A sixth sense, I can feel it Off the walls Spiraling around, emotions found In the least expected place Every once and a while It is there And growing and growing And spreading with time When I wish For sometimes I can be myself For all the times There are no words Pictured words For sometimes When I wish Tomorrow I will find myself
11.
Is this the way I am It doesn't feel right There's so much on my mind, so much on my mind That it drives me crazy That I can't sleep at night Gotta let it out And don't tell me I look so silent I already hate myself enough All my misery is forever I must have caught it in my sleep I want to leave this place forever Made a fool of myself like always And when I go I won't be missed and I won't be loved I can't express this no matter how hard I try This isn't me I'm leaving this shell behind Finding someone who won't be surprised that it's gone The world in color And words like water With bright eyes on an honest face Don't tell me it's hopeless because I want it to be true I'm not insane Tell me I'm not insane Tell me it's all going to change
