Giddy Up! 02:13
the color of death never really complimented me or the memory’s memory that lost bites of ease lead and paper guide my hands ocean true: i hope we can make plans (i just wish i could see you in the same light as i used to) salted hands underneath my dress up my skirt is how you know me the best left on my side left for dead we banned the bible for all that it’s worth we recited the scriptures: the first and the third my aim is fine (i promise) i stay true (to who?) i only want one thing and that’s you

Sweet Sigh 02:06
let me dance around inside your head maybe there’s a place i’ll find safe in the end what’s it to you? i’m still trying to find my way i’ve got places to see and people to please and my own skin to bleed (feed me lullabies little anecdotes of a nightmare’s sweet sigh but like that you talk so sweet) i’ve heard that the truth Will set me free But if that’s true Why are lies the only thing to protect me?

melted on the couch you say i better watch who i’m talking to that way i’ve got past lives to atone for i’m sorry, again! i’m sorry!!!!!! i’m sorry!!! lip service never served me well but if i make it seven years down the road i’ll have a body and life that you’ve never touched call me back or for what it is either way i’ll be disappointed disappointed in you Karah: Oh you’re disappointed again? Then at last my work is done “Judge me by the enemies i’ve made” How i’d hate to be someone you love And the pills you gave me to behave Only fueled my rage and thinned my blood So, if “thicker than”’s your argument I suggest you choose a new weapon Call me back or for what it is Either way i’ll be disappointed (well i’m glad you’re disappointed)

palm reader what’s down my line? does my lineage pay for all my crimes? or am i the one to carve the lane the forks stuck in the road and i’m tired of change. don’t worry about my new shades of red i can count all the ways id be better off better off better off in the shade lookin nothing like i did five years ago feeling just the same as my highest notes don’t worry about my new shades of blue i guess every color i painted is my worst hue worst hue but i’m i’m better off i’m better off with out you lookin nothing like i did five years ago feeling just the same as my highest note don’t worry about my new shades of red i can count all the ways id be better off better off don’t worry about my new shades of red i can count all the ways id be better off i can’t be blamed for every lie in your reflection i can’t be blamed for every lie in your reflection

g2h 01:48
there’s a scene in my head where i walk through the city and i see your face again i wonder what id say i wonder if i’d explain i wonder if i’d straight up just scream til i’m blue in the face i tell you over and over again that you don’t know who i am oh that a fraction of who i was? it didn’t go according to plan trace the lines on my palm and tell me what i don’t understand i’m not that fraction of who you thought i was it didn’t go according to your plan oh if i could tell them anything id say i know i was crazy with a capital “c” and a bed in the west wing but at least i wasn’t lying to myself in a mirror every morning hoping they’d pick me off a shelf cause i pick myself go to hell
7.
feed me lullabies little anecdotes of a nightmare’s cry everything feels a little darker than it seems i just don’t know what id say at your funeral when they ask me to speak will my throat be dry? with tears on cheeks? will they ask me to speak? feed me The sweetest dreams little memories i keep with me Cause everything feels a little darker than it seems i just don’t know what id say will they ask me to speak?
8.
thinkin thoughts i never knew i was capable of until i met you. creeping in between my ears swallow all the words that you dont want to hear hit the deck i think i'm falling slowly hear the words i want to sing for me but you don't wanna know the truth unless it serves you you don't keep coming back to things i don't want rocks in my stomach and... the rocks they fell out again i'm slipping into another dimension it's wrapped in, to, and round me. i'm sinking so slowly. i'm sinking so slowly. i'm sinking so slowly!!!!!!
