Jealousy 03:02
I've been changing with the weather. But I can't decide whether I'm getting worse or better. Beautiful, do you mind wasting time? Jealousy, I've got a backpack full of shit that says I'm leaving. Because I'm not doing this again. Do we have to do the same shit every day? It goes on and on, and on, and on. There's a cold front blowing in and I'm carried with the wind. You could understand my motives if you just had thicker skin. You've seen the devil in my grin. And it shows by how I've sinned. Oh god, where have you been? Sometimes I feel like I can't stop the words from coming out of my mouth. I just say the wrong things at the wrong time sometimes. I'm just a boy standing in front of you. I've got nothing to lose. I've got nothing to prove.

Porcelain 02:39
I'm a weeping willow when your head is not touching my pillow. And I'm in bloom when you rest your head low underneath the moon. You are my favorite reoccurring dream. So love, sing me to sleep. Every night I dream about your love in my sleep. I swear to god I am your everything. I'm yours to keep. We cannot feel defeat. I'm holding on to everything. Because I believe we have the same heartbeat. Let me slip into your orbit. Let me in (2x)

Teeth 04:54
I've been living in this coffin for twenty four years. My body softens and disappears. Come kneel down next to me and pray to god in my ears. Confess that death is one of your biggest fears. And when you disappear you just disappear. Why do my teeth fall out at night? It's as if you were telling me that something wasn't right. Why do I dream of you at night? It's as if my mind was tellingly that something wasn't right. You never know when you're going to go. You never say anything at all. You never show anything at all. Don't wait for me. Ill be home soon. I'm out flying high on the dark side of the moon.

Luna 03:34
Sitting in a parking lot thirty minutes away from my house. I watched the secrets fly right out of your beautiful mouth. Is it just me? Is it me that you're thinking about? Have I figured you out? You have your doubts. Take me back to the shoreline. Take me back to the second when you told me you we're "all mine". And you'd sing me to sleep. Take me back to the second you were all mine. Is it over yet? You know, I never believed in regret. And just the thought of you being upset drives me insane. Is it over yet? You know, I never lived with regret. And just the thought of you being upset hurts me the same. Under pressure I turn to stone. It's hard to walk away with these worthless bones. Can you win this tug of war between the moon, the sun, and the earth? The tide rolls in with so much force. Ride the wave. Stay on course. Could you please sing me to sleep, and put my troubled mind at ease? Could you please sing me to sleep, and put my stubborn mind at ease?

Blossom 03:28
Can you meet me at the bridge? September came and went. And I'm still lying in my bed. I'm going over every word that you said to me in my head. So now I'm writing you these letters. I just want you to know I'm gone. I'm not coming home. Can you meet me at the bridge? These San Francisco lights couldn't shine any brighter tonight. I'm coming down. I'm freaking out. Long nights alone with nothing to think about. Meet me at the bridge.

To Joseph 01:33
If I told you I broke down tonight, would you still stand here by my side. With poor life decisions at best, this is me at my worst, taking the long way home. The only way I know. But my bones can't do this alone. I need you to pick up the pieces. But my bones are aching and cold. If I could just get a grip. Give me something to hold because my complaining is getting old.
