could you know what it's like
are we really that much alike
in a drop of rain
I learn everything
but the clouds are passing just fine
stay down with me
let's just watch a movie
stay down with me
let it all pass slowly

an empty bag, wake up
deflated and constant squint
a quick trip to save time
I’ll surely let it go sour
I’ll surely let it go sour again
but the minutes will add up
I’m losing time, losing everything
probably but it’s so easy
nemluvím, I don’t speak
but I’ll mutter in your stairwell
other end in the hospital
I don’t understand anything

Stop Apologizing
03:19
|
|||
|
you only wanna see yourself in me
like me more when I have something to say
buying into your philosophies
wish I could disagree with you someday
wide eyed, I know
you'll let me go with no apologies
melt back into the shape you were
you'll sleep better, will I sleep worse?
I'll try to string these loose beads again
I'll try to see it through til then

she stepped out, out the door again
no more handouts from your family or your friends
now you sleep outside
of course you’ll be ok, you’ll have it all someday
but for now
you’re just acting out, try to live without
what you’ve known
from your past alight, parking lots at night
at least I tried
is this your fight?
can you make it right?
a false test of might
two cent artists in a two cent town
rust belt adolescents kicking rocks around
on their own for one time in their lives
try to hypothesize what they don’t know and never will
as you know
of course you’ll be ok, you’ll have it all someday
but for now you’re just acting out, try to live without
what you’ve known
wait for your dad to die, then you can gentrify
what you don’t know and never will

can you be more specific
can you tell me if you meant it
I’ve been doing all your dishes
growing anxious by the minute
you’ll change your hair, I’ll change my mind
you’ll still be there, I’ll still be fine
was hoping you would change this one time
I am losing hold of my hand
hyperventilate in her trash can
try to stomach what you’re asking
you’ll stain your hair in shades of mine
amorphous shapes of clementines
was hoping you would change this one time

Clearly Today
01:42

|
I can hear the waves
more clearly today
I can see your shape
see you walk my way
answers that I give
they're all relative
the weight
of my shoulder blades
I could say the same thing every day
I'm soaking
but I'm still getting lighter
I could say the same thing every day

Dammit every track makes me smile. How did you do that? If a friend recommends this album to you, hang on to them because they're just as fabulously messed up as you are. I'd like to thank my bank for allowing me to buy things online again. Thank you. Everyone. Thanks.
