Tried to tell you that I loved you through a screen
And in a word you buried me
Like mom and dad I do extremes
I feel like im just one more feat that you have long sought after all this time or maybe its just me
I take it in its clear to see
I’m aware of when I should leave
I could give you another speech
Or maybe get down on my knees and risk it all in a dairy queen
But it was never up to me
Wait my fault
I’ve said too much
Alcohol and cookie crumbs
Help lead to my confession
But I think I’m just attention seeking
Cause I want you way too much
My bad habits and fucking up
All point to my regression
Think I’ll never learn my lesson fully
Soon as you came
I saw you go
And now im stuck on the bathroom floor
Like im the last in the Alamo
I remember your face well
Sometimes I think that its all I know
Its enough to make me feel good
There’s so much that I want to say
But I’m worried its too late
When im with you im like jeez
You’re so sick good fucking grief
I learned life’s not all me
I learned it never was
I’m so afraid that I’ll push you away
I’m so afraid that I’ve pushed my friends away
I’m so afraid that I’ll push you away
Oh, I’m afraid there’s a price I’ll pay
Cause every morning I wake up and I’m afraid to face myself
I’m afraid I’ve pushed you away
Why is it so hard to just simply breathe
Why is it hard to just simply speak to you
Its so hard to just even blink
If I play my cards just right maybe i’ll sleep

Oh what a rush
Waiting for moments that never come
What do we call this
I think its something in between just
Feeling anxious that we shouldn’t meet and waking up to all the traces of you in my sheets
Now I’m asking how I could know
If its all real
When you put that curse on
And there’s no one
But you and me below a heavy moon
Guess the pure one
Guess the first one
Chalk it up to deaf blind dumb youth
When the pain leaves will you go too?
I guess I think too much about you
Its why I’m so unsure
Its why I think we should skip the hurt
So sad and cold
You’re a picture perfect almost clone
This fits so well
I’ll do the talking while you do the pills
I can hear what you’re saying but its not so grey
Sewing wounds that were opened back in twenty oh wait
Just want to know
If its all real
When you put that curse on
And there’s no one
But you and me below a heavy moon
Guess the pure one
Guess the first one
Chalk it up to deaf blind dumb youth
When the pain leaves will you go too?
I guess I think too much about you
Its why I’m so unsure
Its why I think we should skip the hurt
Liminal
I’m moving in
Oh so vicious ant
Could you choose it
If you can
Hold you hella close
Yeah I hold tight to your hand
Catch a throw you looked
All subliminal to friends
Even visible
Watch it go right through their heads
We’ll be better off instead
Leaving everything we own
Ditch family and friends
Fly a plane from off the coast
Leave no trace we lived
Until we find a place unknown
With a plateau flanking in
The mighty wave approached us and called us out as friends
Now we’ve built a home where the wind turned dust to land
Looking at you close and I know this can’t be real
Feel its been so long but its only been a minute
And I wake up and you’re gone
My phone is in my hand
Slow I shiver up before I do it all again
And I do it all again
