As We Drown (feat. Lucas James) 03:35
lyrics

Running round my head like I've been headless I think I'm a maniac Feeling like I'm gonna end up dead without a smile when I'm looking back at my past I'm too possessive but I trust myself lesser every day that pass And everything that fills my time, it makes me anxious, oh, I never can relax And I know that you know that I know that it's hard to love When its never right, yeah it's like all our life never goes how we planned And sometimes it's all a mess and we stress, like to death, were in pools of blood But when the credits roll yeah I know that you know that you'll be where I stand As the tide is rising I know you'll be with me in the water As we drown Evil crowding, surrounding I know you'll be right here, fend them off me Till the end I play the worry in your eyes every night And It kicks me to my knees, got my head raised high Pushing myself to the limits just to keep you sheltered Cause I would never catch my breath trynna do this without you And I know that you know that I know that it's hard to love When its never right, yeah it's like all our life never goes how we planned And sometimes it's all a mess and we stress, like to death, were in pools of blood But when the credits roll yeah I know that you know that you'll be where I stand As the tide is rising I know you'll be with me in the water As we drown Evil crowding, surrounding I know you'll be right here, fend them off me Till the end If a hurricane would hit us, take the roof off of our house These howling winds surround us I know you'll bring me to the eye If I couldn't move my legs, I'm laying in the dirt and got no hope to keep me crawling You'd carry me out my demise If it ends up where my plan b to the plan b fails, the worst entails I hope on us we never bail Oh, I can tell that if the world would end right now, the sirens sound, were falling down That you'd still be with me somehow I know As the tide is rising I know you'll be with me in the water As we drown Evil crowding, surrounding I know you'll be right there, fend them off me Till the end

The Cliffs 03:11
lyrics

I came to my senses Blocked out by the fences Built when I was reckless A mess on my knees Late nights with the regrets They floated like seedlets Pushed me to a descent But now I believe I need to love myself Before anyone else, yeah On pace with my health And you, you put me through hell But I'm wishin you well 'Cause the hate never helped All the good's at the peaks We get lost in the valleys I'm past the climb and I can see Cliffs aren't all as tall as they seem I feel like I'm on top of the world now My stresses all burned down Sunny days come round and I'm lookin up Avalanches and rock falls Can feel like the end-all At the base you feel so small But that summit's coming I need to love myself Before anyone else, yeah On pace with my health And you, you put me through hell But I'm wishin you well 'Cause the hate never helped All the good's at the peaks We get lost in the valleys I'm past the climb and I can see Cliffs aren't all as tall as they seem Cliffs aren't all as tall as they seem I hope that your dreams come true and you get everything you need You need And I hope that the best of years is this one like you want it to be To be I hope that the stars get close so that you never have to reach To reach And you don't ever forget that behind your back you got me Got me All the good's at the peaks We get lost in the valleys I'm past the climb and I can see Cliffs aren't all as tall as they seem Yeah, cliffs aren't all as tall as they seem

Leave I'm so tired of seeing you tired When you come home late night I see no smile; the one that was brighter And I can't count all our fights But I still feel your warmth when it's light out Yeah, still forever in spite Of all we are now I'm using white-out On this story, it should surely write itself, take it's course If I'm honest what I want is just the best Waiting for you So leave Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na I want you to be happy If happy means you're free Oh-oh, oh-oh so Leave Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na I need you to be happy Even if happy's without me Oh-oh, oh-oh so Leave 'Cause in my mind you were always the only And now the only faced down So save yourself, I'll come to terms with the lonely In this story, it should surely write itself, take it's course If I'm- What I want is just the best Waiting for you Leave Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na I want you to be happy If happy means you're free Oh-oh, oh-oh so Leave Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na I need you to be happy Even if happy's without me Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh You're so far gone So don't turn back, not back to that, the fact's we'll never be alright Life sucks, it's wrong But why would you keep the things that lead to keeping you awake at night Oh, leave Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na I want you to be happy If happy means you're free Oh-oh, oh-oh so Leave Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na I need you to be happy Even if happy's without me Oh-oh, oh-oh so (Oh-oh, oh-oh so) Leave (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

good vibes rn 03:15

Bell rings, schools out and we disappear Long drives downtown, 4 seater Head out to the beach so my mind is clear Suns out, lay down Fast food in the back that we just bought With the low wage jobs that we workin Getting late so we stop by a parking lot Watch the sunset fall Don't you love not having to worry at all Swear to god its never a hurry, let's stall I don't know where I'll be in 20 years from now But I don't care, I'm just really trynna fuck around So hop in the car and step on the gas We're going to my place, drive up on the grass This shit hypes me up, high on those good vibes right now Street lights speed past but we're wide awake On an empty road in a drop-top Lets cliff dive 50 feet into an empty lake Cause we're all alone Yeah, and it's never over, come on over When we're older we're gonna look back on this So let's make the most of it Don't you love not having to worry at all Swear to god its never a hurry, let's stall I don't know where I'll be in 20 years from now But I don't care, I'm just really trynna fuck around So hop in the car and step on the gas We're going to my place, drive up on the grass This shit hypes me up, high on those good vibes right now Oh, sometimes, it seems all bad And I don't wanna break my back trynna Hold these problems, no overstate When it weighs me down you'll hear me say I don't show it But sometimes I get so stressed that I lash out And I just wanna smile some days so I'll back out And just forget about it all So why don't we just throw a fuckin party in a U-Haul 'Morrow leaves us faster than the salt lakes out in Utah This hit different when you in the present with an elbow out the window and my feet up on the dash, I'm saying I don't know where I'll be in 20 years from now But I don't care, I'm just really trynna fuck around So hop in the car and step on the gas We're going to my place, drive up on the grass This shit hypes me up, high on those good vibes right now

Past five days they felt like six years Can't you stay ours wasn't this year Left uncaged; that's resting right here In your memory Thanks for being there, checkin on me I'm only hopin you were happy Hope you hear me, you're everlasting In this melody Every time that I entered the room I could turn, look unto, never longing, yeah After what you'd been through You still stood in my view, making an effort for me Guess that that's just how it goes I know you couldn't help it Guess that that's just how it goes And I'm just being selfish But I can't stand being alone Damn, I wish this didn't happen Wish I left a good impression Wish you a new place to rest in Least you're free now, wish I helped it Wish I could've made it easy I messed up and left you needy Wish you understood my feelings 'Cause I wish you best, believe me Every time that I entered the room I could turn, look unto, never longing, yeah After what you'd been through You still stood in my view, making an effort for me Guess that that's just how it goes I know you couldn't help it Guess that that's just how it goes And I'm just being selfish But I can't stand being alone You were so innocent But innocence is vulnerable and bare And now the monsters crawl As darkness falls on places we would share I hope one day I get To lay again with you there, I hope you know I care I care I guess that that's just how it goes I know you couldn't help it Guess that that's just how it goes And I'm just being selfish

Facade 03:24
lyrics

Last week I heard you talking to other friends Told them things that never crossed your mind again around me I start to feel like you always were to pretend I guess I'm just not good enough I shattered my self-image a thousand times Feeling like I don't fit in on any side of this place Do you look down on me with those soulless eyes 'Cause I think I'm not good enough 'Cause I think I overthink a little too much But I don't know how I could read your mind In the mirror is someone you don't wanna know Though it's clear it's all a facade, just a show And there my self-hate grows Late at night, I'm up again with my mistakes Hate myself for stupid shit, I need a break from me 'Cause all you are is condescending to my face And then I let my mind control reality 'Cause I think I overthink a little too much But I don't know how I could read your mind (I can't read your mind) In the mirror is someone you don't wanna know Though it's clear it's all a facade, just a show And there my self-hate grows (There my self-hate grows) In the mirror is someone you don't wanna know Though it's clear it's all a facade, just a show And there my self-hate grows (In the mirror, in the mirror, in the mirror) There my self-hate grows (In the mirror) (In the mirror, in the mirror) There my self-hate grows
