[Verse 1]
I accidentally stole a song's tune
When I was writing along and accidentally thought of you
I tried so hard to be what I was never
But I know now
And I'm stoked how
I'm all alone

[Chorus]
Overslept again, what a giant mess
Sorry I kept you wondering
If I would actually come around this time
Mediocrity, apologies
Hypocrisy, but honestly
I just need you to come around this time

[Verse 2]
I accidentally said that we should run away
So we took the train I hear from my window everyday
We drove so far to a place that was better
Then she said, “Wow,
I'm stoked how
I'm not alone”

[Chorus]
I dreamt again, we fixed this mess
Promises kept, no wondering
If we would actually come around this time
Underslept again, insomnia
Hypochondria, cryptomnesia
Honestly I just need some time

[Outro]
I understand you're not the solution
But you make me less terrified of the problem
I understand though I try to make it more
You've heard this all before
In some other song or form
I understand you're not the solution
But you make me less terrified of the problem
I understand you're not my solution
But you make me less terrified of my problem

Holding Off

Come Around This Time

[Verse 1]
Maybe it's ‘cuz I’m a Pisces,
Or maybe it’s cuz I’m a pansy,
But as she opened up, I fell in deep
But Im learning it’s okay
That ever since my first heartbreak,
I can’t feel that kind of love for anyone anymore
 
[Pre-Chorus]
So let’s drive the streets
You can laugh at me ‘cuz I’m April’s fool

[Chorus]
And I am scared to let go
But tonight, let’s forget the end of the world
This time, I’ll get things right
So let’s hold each other like theres no goodbye

[Verse 2]
I procrastinate a lot of things
But I can’t hold off growing up
For both what it was and could’ve been,
I miss being that young
The closed door of my sisters room
Reminds me that she’s gone and so is childhood
These walls are stuck in 2015 June 

[Pre-Chorus]
So let’s drive the streets
Cuz I'd rather be April’s fool 

[Chorus]
And I am scared to let go
But tonight, let’s forget the end of the world
This time, I’m going to get things right
But our ghosts, they say, "oh please"

[Bridge]
Don’t forget
Don’t forget me 
(Oh please)
Don’t even try
Because I’m not ready yet
(I don’t want to let go, I don’t want to grow up)

[Outro] 
Photos and drawings hurt me
Sad to see how I felt
Artifacts of a past that now feels unreal
Can’t throw this away, so I’ll eat these food for thoughts
Close up the leftovers in a takeout box
Put it in the back of the fridge ’til it expires and rots
I'll be the first to admit, I should’ve loved more what i lost

April's Fool

Lyrics: 

[Verse 1]
Red thread around our pinkies
But lately I have started thinking
That we need to cut these ties

[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cuz I am hard to love
And I have half a mind
To not let you down and get left behind

[Chorus]
And I wish you said something before you let me go
But I know
I can make up in my head the entire convo

[Verse 2]
You ask me to stay
And you are so great
I know I am hard to maintain

[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cuz I am a piece of shit
Now you want me out your life
You can’t get hurt another fucking time

[Chorus] 
And I wish you said something before you let me go
But I know
I can make up in my head the entire convo

And I wish you said something before you let me go
But I know
I can make up in my head the entire convo

And I wish you said something before you let me go
But I know
I can make up in my head the entire convo

Red Thread

[Verse 1]
Lately I feel like I can’t keep focus
I'm an emotion addict
Kind of impulsive and broken
(Right)
Monetize my emotions
Distract myself with projects
I am scared to remember
But I am scared to forget
And it seems black and white
’Til I ease my mind and rest

[Pre-Chorus]
I deflect everything
‘Cause when I reflect, I overthink
I wanna be inspiring
But I can hardly motivate myself, please

[Chorus] 
Heavy head and a foggy mind,
It weighed too much so I left it behind

[Bridge]
I’ll joke that I hate school
But it’s more that I hate me, see:
I just turned eighteen and if it weren’t for my 5150
I’d buy a gun right now and shoot my brains out
But I’m not looney, I’m just joking around

[Outro]
‘Cause irrationality is better as fantasy
I'm an attention whore who wants nothing more than to have some success
And I can’t settle for less
And I dont want to die just yet    
I just want to be good enough to sing to you, my friend
And I just want to feel good enough to love again
And maybe God knows, I’ll make amends to everyone I miss

Mend.

[Verse 1]
Who I was was reckless
I wish this nighthawk would let me sleep
I don't ask for forgiveness 
But for you to leave my dreams
I’m a better person now
I’ve been working on my faults
Feel like I’ve accepted it
But then summer night falls

[Chorus]
The popcorn ceiling stares me down
I fucked up, yes I did
I'm so sorry I hurt you
I own up to all of it
Maybe they’re right:
These things are skewed
They say I’m too hard on myself
But I’m so confused

[Bridge]
And I go so quickly from feeling great 
To not knowing why I feel like shit

[Verse 2]
See, I’ve written many letters that I never tried to send
‘Cuz reaching out years later might replay her distress
Yet a good apology might help those old wounds mend
And maybe honesty might help her make some sense of it
Sure, alright
So I’ve been thinking about it for a really long time
I said sorry poorly before, this time it’s what is right
I owe it to her to properly apologize
And now I wait
She says, "You hurt me too much to accept it but thanks"
And that's okay
Please be okay!

[Verse 3]
Through the years I have grown
But honestly right now,
I think I'd rather self-loathe
Relapse and indulge
How I feel is on me
I immaturely imposed unhealthy ideas of love
I’m a lonely kid, day dreamer,
Lame heart, but way weaker,
I thought she could save me and that I should’ve been enough to save her
And I wish we had first met later, now I have more self-love
But who am I to forgive myself for her hurt when it’s her hurt, huh?
Things the memories ruin: hobbies, food and rest 
And I keep taking pain pills for this pain in my chest
They don’t really help ‘cause I still can’t get out of my bed
I re-obsess over what I worked hard to repress

[Outro]
I wanna cry but I got too good at keeping it in
I need a scarecrow for the bird perched on my window sill
Gotta think of the light, when the sun will shine again
Oh please, let me go, let me be
