paper tambourine crunching beneath my feet
the the beat in the mess that we left
in this trail of love that needs no clean up
yes, my heart's been blessed with a treacherous torturous ache
no mistakes
I won't try to change it. I'll embrace this real pain
cuz it was given to me by somebody who is cooler than
all the other men
but the thing about you and the thing about me
is we live in different galaxies
so what do you do with a love you can't see through?
and what do you say to a lover who cannot stay?
back and forth I am brave I'm a coward
I have faith. I can't make out how this will work
it gets harder, then it's easier
so I'll love you from afar, won't protect my heart
let it be, let it breathe, love openly
doesn't have to be a suffocating monogamy
plus I'm not really ready to be getting heavy anyway
so it's a gift that it is like this
and it was given to me by somebody who is cooler than
all the other men
so what do you do with a love you can't see through?
and what do you say to a lover who cannot stay?

Last Resorts
03:55

It's 3am, par for the course I'm wide awake
and since the morning I haven't known what to say
Just like a train, follow the day hour by hour
Waiting for something to change
I'm suspicious of my loneliness
Trying not to use, but I keep smoking cigarettes
Watching myself like a stranger from the dark side of the room
No sudden moves
I think that I don't want to care anymore about how it goes
Don't even know what I'm hoping for
Say what you want about Last Resorts
Either way, either or, don't want to care anymore
I'll pick you up an hour after you've gone to bed
Sorting through the long days that we spend up in our heads
Grieving all the little things we're trying to transcend
shifting from grey to red
Why does it feel like we keep losing every war?
Why does my perspective always need to be scraped up off the floor
Thank God there's always you getting me from 2 to 3, from 3 to 4
I think that I don't want to care anymore about how it goes
Don't even know what I'm hoping for
Say what you want about Last Resorts
Either way, either or, don't want to care anymore

Winter

Winter settling in my veins, I miss the sun
Winter, makes it harder to feel sane, I miss the sun
And it aint easy for my body to be comfortable all the time
I gotta layer up, and be prepared as fuck and exercise
Winter, drawing out the dark poetry
Winter, makes me wanna be in your arms endlessly, endlessly
Seasonal resistance, I gotta get my friends to be persistent
Don't Let Go, Be Patient
There's another summer coming, we're gonna make it
Winter, freezing off the parts that I don't need
I shiver, as I die and start to dream of better things
I am haunted by old habits that I don't need anymore
and as I try to withstand the world with my new faith
I hear them tapping at my door
Family comes together once again, here we go
Finally I am better than last year, what do you know?
what do you know
I am happy in the harder weather, oh because
I respect the sun so much better
when I've earned it and we've earned this one
Winter, settling in my veins, I miss the sun

Still

Spring is Here
Less resistance
Always harder in the winter
Out for walks now
I feel the ground
soft, beneath my feet
No more mittens
thanks got for this
I am healing now
And you'd say, "it's better off this way"
and you'd say, "that's the nature of change"
Maybe you're right
Maybe this'll be the year things really take off
Still wish you were here
Oh a lot died this year
Sometimes, forget my heart's still here
How do the trees stay alive when it's freezing
I learn a lot from them, you know
How they bend and always grow
Never try suicide, though they're always letting go
Can I be bear?
Without you there, covering me like leaves
And you'd say, "it's better off this way"
and you'd say, "that's the nature of change"
Maybe you're right
Maybe this'll be the year things really take off
Still wish you were here
Push through the coldest doubt
Oh, and it's easy now
Push through till the sun comes out
Oh, and it's easy now

Crawl
05:19

Are you ready to begin? Cuz I am going to teach you how to drown
I am gonna push you in
and I am going to steal away the sound of you screaming for help
you're screaming for help
No option of control or choice
No directing your own life with intelligence
and consciousness is all you've got left
consciousness is all you've got left
You are going to sink
cuz the ocean is too big and strong for you to fight
so accept the fact that you are going to
You are going to sink
cuz the ocean is too big and strong for you to fight
so accept the fact that you are going to die
Crawl
The price you pay to see me crawl is so great
cuz you keep paying for a front row seat
The price you pay to see me crawl is so great
cuz you know you're too scared to follow me
Badadadadada dum
What's real is bubbling up to the surface
and now I know and now I know
and now I know that all long
we were superheroes with no knowledge of how
to harness our powers
so we became cowards and she sang
"Every time you close. door and nothing opens in its place you waste it
If shining wisdom passed your lips and travelled to the ears of god
you'd waste it"
Oooh
Chorus
Bridge
Please come home - friends want friends to be honest friends
Please come home - I'm only resilient in other galaxies
and I don't think this is the end
Jesus, must you betray me with a kiss?
You are going to sink
You are going to sink
You are going to sink
You are going to you are going to you are going to
you are
Chorus
and the ocean is to big and strong for you to fight
so accept the fact that you are going to die
