Bubblegum 03:14
Its in your hair it in my eyes its no surprise we don’t realize just what’s inside it’s sweet poison and we don’t feel it till it’s too late so sweet going down but the taste sticks on my mouth a bitter film on my tongue and i can’t get it off and it gets to bright so i can’t see i guess its not for me its too much time i don’t feel real its loosing its appeal so sweet going down but the taste sticks on my mouth a bitter film on my tongue and i can’t get it off so sweet going down but the taste sticks on my mouth a bitter film on my tongue and i can’t get it off so not ready to go and I keep wanting for it the rest of my life so sick and tired of the ecstasy doesn’t really show cuz i can’t take this shit too serious or I just end up hating it so sweet going down but the taste sticks on my mouth a bitter film on my tongue and i can’t get it off so sweet going down but the taste sticks on my mouth a bitter film on my tongue and i can’t get it off

The Light 03:35
say its coming straight for you imma bet that you will stay and just think about what you could do and which way you should face Im not tryna come between you and your personalties i just wanna know what’s com ing next cuz I can never really read you face and this ones pulling me under this one don’t feel right I just need a few more pieces then maybe ill see that light if walls are closing in you’re gonna get what you expect if you don’t try and find a way to get out of your head keep on trying making mistakes i can never get it right without one little thing going wrong i never fail to get a bite and this ones pulling me under this one don’t feel right I just need a few more pieces then maybe ill see that light say its about to fall through what are you prepared to do in the moments where we don’t have time to stop and think things through nothing gonna come from nothing its the only thing that’s true separate specks may have their memories but its never something new and this ones pulling me under this one don’t feel right I just need a few more pieces then maybe ill see that light

Cage 02:55
Shut the fuck up listen to yourself all of the rules you made up your own little hell a tiny cage of what you hope will matter most and that hope of course is built on a foundation that won’t float and it’s been raining for months you know what’s coming we both have for so long just waiting to se the sun again maybe tomorrow lets just give it a couple more days and then well call it Please just tell me what I can do to keep up with everything that I’m supposed to I’m not trying to win anymore Its hard enough just trying to enjoy it can we prove it do you wanna is it worth all of this extra talking over each other the resolution’s forever changing its all the movement rearranging and it’s not all for the better but there’s nothing that’s forever So Please just tell me what I can do to keep up with everything that I’m supposed to I’m not trying to win anymore its hard enough just tryna enjoy it Electricity is sending you to me again collecting commemorating what were saving for the big time of our life just waiting for the next line on the next line Please just tell me what I can do to keep up with everything that I’m supposed to I’m not trying to win anymore its hard enough just tryna enjoy it Please just tell me what I can do to keep up with everything that I’m supposed to I’m not trying to win anymore its hard enough just tryna enjoy it

Shimmer 03:16
all the wrong reactions now just come to me standing in the back where i can barley see I said i can’t take it all so seriously and she said you don’t really stars that won’t see anything see everything forever shimmer ah your standing next to me and calling it forgettable Im staring into your eyes and you’re staring back Im so sick of wasting my time being sad you said baby one night can we just relax Im so scared of what would happen if I did I can see that I m moving backwards on the outside looking in trapped in a shell floating in my own hell if i trust in this shit what will i let in stars that won’t see anything see everything forever shimmer ah your standing next to me and calling it forgettable

Can't Sleep 03:33
you know that i can never fall asleep so easily I'm always staying awake i got a chaotic brain sometimes i just lay there and stare at your face you’re so fucking pretty it fucks with my brain and I'm not trying to stay but something keeps me in place and its not just that face its everything do you think i wanna have it that way is there something that you think I'm gonna say with nothing and everything always getting in the way I'm always playing through the pain not saying anything and I'm not trying to prove anything whatever serves your ways whatever holds the weight and I'm asking for anything that'll hold my hands away from that sort of thing cuz you know what they say about idling do think I wanna have it that way is there something that you think I'm gonna say with nothing and everything always getting in the way of what I'm gonna say figure it out try to set it up straight these are the habits we don’t wanna break you can let it be or let there be change and you can keep moving in one place do think I wanna have it that way is there something that you think I'm gonna say with nothing and everything always getting in the way its nothing you haven’t before its nothing forget it ill close the door who cares I'm not trying to start a war i guess its over who cares I'm not trying to start a war i guess its over who cares I'm not trying to start a war i guess its over
