Every Little "Fuck You"
03:09

I came home to a different life
Slept as a ghost, but only for the night
Then I packed my life into every box in sight
And I made my way quietly out the side
It's better now to run than just to hide
Because you're so good at other people's lives
At burying mistakes safely out of sight
Someone dug them all up while you were gone
And they laid them on display across the lawn
To let them have their day out in the sun
I am the cigarette between the concrete and your sole
Burned down to nothing, exhaled, reduced to ash and smoke
To dissipate, to scatter, to float off in the day
It was in every little "fuck you" thrown my way
You always had the perfect words to say
If you try hard enough to slip into the background
Everything might just go exactly as you planned
Because all the good magicians know
That the best part of the show
Happens in the unnoticed hand

This distance pulls all color from the day
How we sit together, staring off so far away
Can I touch your skin?
You feel like a memory, yet you're right here
Because you know I like to talk
But I know how that brings you down
So, I won't bring you down
I will shut my mouth
Maybe explode
Your smile hasn't made it home for days
The one that's come to take its place don't shine the same
Does it know its way back home?
I've drawn up a map of all the places I've gone wrong
Because you know I like to talk
But I see how you've given up
Well, I haven't given up
So, cover those ears up
Because here it comes
These are our questions for today:
Can you save me?
Can I save me?
Can this be saved?

Easy

A way, away
I weigh a weight, I wait
I can't keep reliving yesterdays
You said "get out of your head" like it was easy
But I can't even get out of bed
But I ain't sleeping no more
A sound, unsound
I can't keep melting down
I can't find reasons for hanging 'round

Through a Different Hue
02:15

I've had so many knots to untie
It's taken so much time
How did you get so tangled in my life?
There are parts I've had to cut away
Parts I wish I could have saved
But hey were bound too tight
It's not that I don't ever think of you
But now it's filtered through a different hue
I've been feeling better, I hope that's okay with you
Lately, I don't feel so black and blue
I've had so many clocks to unwind
I turned back the hands of time
To make gravel from the rock that you had been
There are stones I probably should have saved
Ones I could have used to pave a better pathway through
Don't lean too hard, they'll back away
Sometimes "I'll always be here for you"
Is just something people say
To fill dead air, the awkwardness
Counterfeit some comfort, make it easier to dismiss
By throwing the right words at it
