Dedicated to Stan, Elliot, George and Lisa. RIP

these bones won't last, you abuse them too fast
where will you go when the last veins collapse?
but you're not dead yet let's go back and get
the potential and hope and we both know you won't 
get away from this rut, seems you'll always be stuck yeah I know, oh I know

going to get it right this time
where else have I ever heard that line?
and you never did what you said you would do
not entirely your fault and we both know you aren't
the person you seem and it all seems to leave you alone, all alone, you're not alone

and these scars on your arms, they're not for show
just a reminder of all, you used to know

and you tried your best yeah we all know you did
but now we have to go and tell all of the kids
why their dad's in the ground but we all should be proud 
of what you left, of what you left, you left

Almost Made It Through

write a happy song she said, don't you know how this ends? it starts...

sitting there in your white dress, don't get it dirty for me
never saw anything so pure she'll always keep it clean
sitting there in your white dress, don't get it dirty for me
mud and blood cover the seams, the next time I see you 

you said you never kissed before, what's that mark on your neck?
you said that you told him no, forget the promise you kept

I don't know, I won't know anymore
we're going nowhere at all

Nowhere at All

This symbiosis isn’t mutual
it’s not a matter of taste
you claimed you needed me
did I make you this way?

All these lies are piling up again
honestly we’re both to blame
I want to go back to when 
I could stand seeing your face

but we might be too far gone
and this last kiss feels so wrong

convince myself I hate you
just to get through this day
and I even blocked your number
but you’re at my door today

the words I planned to say
wouldn’t last if they came out
bags in the trunk to get away
but you laid spikes along my route

Parasite

First Day of my Life (cover)

how long has it been, since I've seen you
5 or 10 years I think, who knows? not you
I know it's not your fault, that everything you touch
dies a slow death, it's never enough

your pain is my way out, it changes me
so take what you want now, it won't change a thing

this is the last time, your fangs sink in
my blood changes, who I am
rarely think of us, but when I do
I smile at the destruction, of me and you

Longing

last night I dreamt I had you around
watching the moonlight pierce through the clouds
sitting in silence waiting to speak
letting this feeling wash over me

wish I could take back everything
wish I could know that we'd be
here and now it's over now
we won't even be a memory

I am crushed and I'm losing
whatever it was kept me moving
she said "close your eyes, this may hurt"
worried I might like it wouldn't be the first

Fade

Barely Remember v2

I know why we aren't working out
It's in the way that we kiss
I am broken
Please don't fix me
I never want to feel again

No matter how hard I try
You'll never leave him behind
I could be here for you
What do you want me to do?

One working harder 
Than the other
I know it should be okay
You are busy, I understand
What you're going through 
Please let me in

Preemptive Strike

you told me "you can ask to hang out too"
so I did but you said "I need space from you"

I'd be lying if I said you weren't on my mind
everyday these past few months
I think that I have learned enough about you

all the reasons not one of them true
I will not be as weak as you

I don't think that means what you think it means

Preemptive Strike Recording

I write uplifting feel good songs about addiction and failed relationships

Awkward Conveyance
