this is what makes me
05:47

I'll chase you to the moon
what's forever is what we pass on
what's eternal is what we dream of
And I know this might never last but i want you to see that
this is what I am and this is who I'll be cause this is what makes me
And I know life can be so cruel that it brings you to your knees
It makes you want to weep
It makes it hard to breathe
When seasons start to change and the leaves all fall away
I won't be afraid
I'll wait for the next day

all the time

i hung out with my friends today
they asked me where do you stay
i lied which wasn't a surprise
i lie i do it all the time
i felt kind of blue today
i stayed in bed all day
i'll miss my friend when he moves away
i guess it happens every day
dont look at me
i can't let you see
the state that i'm in
avert my eyes
wear a disguise
and if you did
would you recognize me?

catch me
04:29
|
|||
|
saw its face in the bathroom mirror
looking at me from both of its shoulders
thought i heard the sound of my voice whisper
will you catch me if im in too deep
will you text me when i fall asleep
when i wake up, so i have something to read
will you catch me
here it comes the next part to the chapter
dirt in mouth, hands move up
in surrender
i won't know if i dont get your answer
but i don't really care if it ends in a disaster
will you catch me if i'm in too deep
will you text me when i fall asleep
when it's over i promise i won't take too long
to get over
just promise you'd still be around
by the way did i say
that i was here to stay
when you called me on the phone
after all what is lost isn't found
can't help look back and wonder you know
and everything that we know would explode
into flames and be gone so it goes
every day, I try a little harder
to care for myself so i can be better
for you to see that you're the only
one that i want and it's not cause i'm lonely
I wanna be there for you when you're unhappy
just promise me this that you'll be there to catch me when i fall

whats wrong
you know its not your fault
come down
you know you’re not that strong
you look down
down on everyone
watch out
you might just burn your tongue
just like my dad
i roll up my sleeves
we’re both used to people being mean
so if you see me
struggling to relieve
no matter what
i wont admit defeat

i wanna know
02:27
|
|||
|
this is as close as i'll get
i'll only be your friend
because that's just how it goes
and i guess its ok
but when im lying in bed
wide awake at night
i feel that ache in my chest
and it's so hard to bear
you look so perfect today
i can't believe you're here
but i know you're just a person like anyone else
i saw you in another dream and it wasn't real
but then i woke up in bed and it moved me to tears
i don't wanna sing about the things that hurt me anymore
i believe there's beauty to behold
looking at the stars at night, it really feels so magical
surely there's something for me in store
I wanna know

night time
02:58
|
|||
|
i woke up in the night
looking for a source of light
i read between the lines
grasping for something that wasn't mine
dove in headfirst again
i close my eyes, let the water in
leave it for you to decide
oh god i hope it works this time
everyone gets a little insecure
i think it's best if you tell me first
if you feel the same as me
its the hardest part
to be waiting for you to see
i can't sleep it off

missed call
04:50
|
|||
|
why would you ask me to help
you know i'd let you down
i'd just get in your way
call me and now i'm on the ground
i can't get out of bed
i'd go but not today
i say a lot of things but i'm just a hypocrite
slow down i can't keep up with you
my mind's off somewhere else
i haven't got a clue
what if i told you everything
about how i felt
would it make a difference
i know i try to act tough but you know i'm still a kid
i wanna tell you how i really feel
every time i see you i just want to be near
before the song is over i just want you to see
how much it meant to me
i won't fuck it up next time
i promise

rest
04:06
|
|||
|
tell me everything will be okay
and please don't hesitate
when the sky is turning grey
i'll find shelter before it rains
does anyone know how to be calm
cause my heart's about to split in half
i'm too nervous to fall asleep
i keep forgetting how to breathe
i would like to go back to the place i once was born
rest my feet on the red bricked path
i know i'll be welcomed home
cause i cannot explain
what i wanna say
i shut myself inside instead
but i'll be okay
i'm hoping for the best
cause someday i'll learn to rest
i'll slip away cause i dont know where i belong
teach me to stay, i thought love would keep me strong
project your voice onto me
let me hear your melody
and i'll sing back to you softly
do you think of me when i'm not there
cause i still see you everywhere
push me up just to let me slide
i've fallen down this hole too many times
you said "please dont hold yourself up the sky
we'll never get rid of that one and that's alright"
you said "hey dont hold yourself up the sky
we'll never get rid of that one and that's alright"

grace
06:24
|
|||
|
the night i slept in your bed
i held your pillow close
i buried in my nose
struggling to rest
i let it take control
i let myself get sore
fate save your grace
bury me in your clothes
and know what its like
to be by your side
to be loved in your eyes
your heart is like ceramic and your chest is a birdcage
fluttering inside, trying to escape
does it matter anyway if you never notice
but my heart breaking still makes a sound even if you don't hear it
so if you're falling to pieces
i'll pick them up hold you
however broken i may be
i'll never lose you

car accident
04:44
|
|||
|
i dont wanna die in a car accident
leave my life behind with no trace of myself
except for a fucked up corpse
for people to commiserate
its not how i imagined it
i've still got so much left to say
anyone can die, you took it upon yourself
when you were only five
you thought there was nothing else
now every night you lie awake
"i miss you almost every day"
how long will I stay and only suffocate
wishing on luck
to get me through the day
even when i'm asleep
dreams can be so bleak
roll the windows down
i need to fucking breathe
