my coping mechanism for an identity crisis

Lyrics:
Will I get out of bed?
Can’t even afford to make cents
At least i woke up not dead
I can’t tell if it’s just a realistic dream (please wake up)

We’re all just paintings on people’s walls
Are we more than what our mother saw
Before we turned 18?

Fall in line 
For the ride 
4 to 5 times you’ll question all the lies that you’ve said
back away 
From gravity
We’re the apple tree
You can hide
In disguise
Would you still wear the mask? It’s never worth your life
Don’t waste it all

And now I’m running against the tide
And I’m on fire
Theres more to life than just jazz and cocktails
You think it’s easy to reach nirvana?
Damn right just let go and do the “ha-ha”

We’re all just paintings on people’s walls
Are we more than what our mother saw
Before we turned 18?
Don’t lose that childhood innocence
I pray that it wasn’t gone before you turned 18

Fall in line 
For the ride 
4 to 5 times you’ll question all the lies that you’ve said
If we back away 
From gravity
We’re the apple tree
You can hide
In disguise
Would you still wear the mask? It’s never worth your life
Don’t waste it all

Now that I’m out of bed
I’ll give you a rundown of my two cents
Who you are just depends on perspectives around you
So don’t take it so seriously
Just live your own damn life

“Oh, Alina!”

You wake up every day 
And think how this work must’ve cursed your name 
It’s a shame 
And then you look outside 
And think 
If the sky could cry for you now 
This whole world would drown 

Oh, Alina! 
All that you can think of 
Is all that we ever see 
You “wear your heart on your sleeve”
Do you even know what it means?

And when you step outside 
Make it look like you just cried 
You don’t wanna make a scene 
But you want to be seen 
You say that you’re ok 
Make sure you still sound grey 
You don’t want to be convincing 
Keep em thinking 

Oh, Alina! 
All that you can think of 
Is all that we ever see 
You “wear your heart on your sleeve”
Do you even know what it means to
Break a heart? or to cling to 
A love that has parted?
Or to feel blue?
No one even knows the real you 

~ripping and shredding~

Oh, Alina! 
Ohhhhh
Oh, Alina! 
Ohhhhh
Oh, Alina!
Ohhhhh 
(Alina! Alina!) 
Oh, Alina!
Ohhhhh 
(Alina! Alina! Alina! Alina! Alina!)

IN THE LONG RUN
-bleauxJ

Lots of people are lost and lonely
Hiding out inside their rooms
Facing fate with a growing distance
People change but why would you?

Future worry and dubts that linger
Remember a time when we weren’t so set?
Reckless nights and talks that meant something
I don’t want to think about what comes next
But I do

What happens when all is said and done?
Do I lose you?
It all turns out in the long run
Things seem dim but I don’t mind
I’ve been here before and I got by 
Oooh I do
In the long run everything will be fine

Clouded mind things seem dreary 
Midnight thoughts in the afternoon 
Hide away delay my worry
It’s always the easiest thing to do

Subtle steps they keep me moving 
People change, I did too
Memories fade the more I linger 
You pushed away while I was lost
In my room

What happens when all is said and done?
Do I lose you?
It all turns out in the long run
Things seem dim but I don’t mind
I’ve been here before and I got by 
Oooh I do
In the long run everything will be fine

Take a big step outside the notion
Some words go left unspoken
For a while

Ooooh I do
What happens when all is said and done?
Do I lose you?
It all turns out in the long run
Things seem dim but I don’t mind
I’ve been here before and I got by 
Oooh I do
In the long run everything will be fine

RECAP HIGHLIGHTS
-bleauxJ

I miss the look of your room 
Tiny plants you would tend to at noon
Burning incense in the window
Frank playing as the sunset comes through

You used to touch me freely
We used to fuck when the clock struck 60
Used to catch me dreaming 
Building a life up with you seemed easy

Ever thought it would come to this?
You used to tease me with your passionate fixes
But now I feel this distance 
Good by once and good riddance riddance

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

I don’t really wanna face it
I don’t want to erase this
Cold feet kept me waiting
But if she don’t want me
Now it’s time I’ve wasted

It’s never easy on this rewind
Every breath says to move on get by
Catch your story at sunrise
Hope that new boy treats you right
Like I did

You were my whole world
Now the small talk makes it worse
I never wanted to waste your time
Now its me in this Recap Highlight

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

Now that all is done are you moving on?
When you tell your friends
Do you keep me in the past tense

When I went to drive did you look away?
Now it Recap Highlights in my 
Phone today

Ever thought it would come to this?
You used to tease me with your passionate fixes
But now I feel your distance 
Good by once and good riddance riddance 

You were my whole world
Now the small talk makes it worse
Never wanted to waste your time
Now its me in this Recap Highlight

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

She don’t mind if I walk away
She wants to hear me say
“I’m leaving lady”

Mona (No No No)

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way
Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me

a place for all of the stuff im not attatched to
