the lack of trust is seeping
rolling your eyes and lying through your teeth
i know you hope id get my teeth kicked in
i thought a little bit more of you

sometimes my head deceives me
im my own worst enemy
you know your words keep intruding in
i know you never really think it through

need to get the hell out of this town
cause when im here i got a frown
cant stand the sound of your voice anymore

all my ears can fathom is the sound of ringing
my throat is dry and my eyes are stinging
but i just got one question to ask

what do you bring?

what do you bring?

i dont care
why youre up every night
sending texts to my line

oh yeah i dont care
youre complaining online
to all the people that bite

fuck off i dont care
making all those mistakes
with some tears on your face

can you understand
no one gives a fuck 
about you anyways?

you switched up on me 
like the seasons change
being replaced
aint too fun when its on you

as soon as i been doing well
you shit talk on your cell
just for a few likes
but guess what?

i dont care
run your mouth over
and youll never get closure

mmm i dont care
i may be alone
but now i have control

bitch i dont care
i am spending my own time
its been a long while

got a new girl and she treats me like im perfect
got some new pearls on her neck shown some respect
try and find another problem you can dissect

hop on the train, you tryna get some
its not your place, know where you come from
get out my face, youve lost me, im gone

was playing games in my head getting past you
in my space making music in my bedroom
circling down needed someone to attach to
on the ground needed some strength to break through

lose your ego you aint worth much
no good memories theres more to come
i stay up and always have fun

i dont care
im better than ever
balling out with my best friends

baby i dont care
you wanted matching tattoos
but now i dont like you

and i dont care
i just work on myself
and make my music excel

can you understand
that all your words
just sound the same?

and i kept you for too long
its nothing i regret
and i learnt something
its what we need to grow

and she was so essential
but now shes gone
to the back of my head
and out of that bed
where we did all that shit
and lost our fucking minds

i dont care!

digging my nails
straight into my fist
to hide my thoughts
hide my thoughts

i cant complain
i threw my life for this
some stupid thoughts
stupid thoughts

how many times have i punched myself
and kicked in my head to forget what i said?
how many times am i gonna regret
the decisions i made last year?

cause i give in too much
should put my phone away
run away for the day
live a life that i wont forget

cause it hurts too much 
to see it come back
crawling through my skin
i'll lose all the things i find embarrassing

these marks are
the things i'll hide
to feel normal for once

but im stuck on
messing up my whole life
all at once

cause i give in too much
should put my phone away
run away for the day
live a life that i wont forget

cause it hurts too much 
to see it come back
crawling through my skin
i'll lose all the things i find embarrassing

all my dreams they fall
before i swore id end it all
blood lands on my shirt
my nose leaks until it hurts

omg thats embarrassing

is that just you talking
or the vodka speaking to me?
i cant even feel my hands
when its just us about to speak

you know whats fucked up?
the words you told me that came out of your sleep
how do you expect me to stay so long
when everybodys warning me?

can you feel it
in the beat of your bones?
can you feel it
now taking control?
can you feel it?
can you feel it creep into your thoughts at night?

you said just come over
heart is tearing at the seams
they say its better sober
but everything is not what it seems

i feel so stuck on whether i'll be 
leaving the night barely
lets get on the floor
im not even standing on my own two feet

can you feel it
reaching into your soul?
can you feel it
creep in when youre alone?
can you feel it?
can you feel me creep into your thoughts at night?

can you feel it?

i was writing in my notes since i was 16
now it all just feels like a big fever dream
everyone suggested go get therapy
but the thoughts never stopped 
they just grew to be

something more
a lotta little thinking
went and got me
nowhere at all
i moved along with life 
and let it drag me to the floor

what have i become?
what have i become?
7 years down the drain
because ive felt so numb

what have i become?
what have i become?
maybe i'll live a few more
before im fucking done

the life im living almost feels like it was planned
you were praying to your god so i took your hands

cause i cant

shake me awake
sorry i was falling asleep
or falling for you

you cant relate
im just caught up in the moment
chasing goals i cant escape

didnt like me when i was into you
used to think i was a fool
falling for all your social cues
did i lose you or did i lose it all?

and she said she's from america
but online doesnt feel that real

play that record
oh, its broken
do you grind your teeth
getting in your feels?

she said my eyes were pretty
so i stared into her soul
live in the moment
post your pictures later
only a small amount of your image can save you
its just me against the world

its just glisten vs the world

heartbreak or heartbreaker

i need u
to help me find out
what im meant to become

i need u
to make ur mind
before i make ur month

sat under the tree and talked this fall
spoke about my dog and all of our faults

cradled u so tight
what a beautiful sight
to know
ur alright today

write letters to u for fun
stay up for hours
and hours together
maybe too long

share all of the secrets uve got
while i drive to our special spots
hope u know
i care bout ur dismay

i need u
to help me find out
what im meant to become

i need u
to make ur mind 
before i make ur month

keep me warm
and my heart open
i cant complain
its nicer here
next to u
i tell the truth
its the only thing
that i'll ever need

i find all these bumps on my body
and u attend to all my wounds
nobody cared before the accident
its just been me and u
what more can i do?

i need u
to help me find out
what im meant to become

i need u
to make ur mind
before i make ur month

cu2nite ;)

all those walks home in the dark left them scarred
shouldve listened to the words of my mum
high beams of the cars killed the night
its time to sober up and forget

put my earphones in and resume
drowning out the attention with the sounds
feels like im the only one thats real
all the words from your mouth were scripted

living in a city where its all based on talk
a cottage in the forest seems like the best restart
the whispers conveyed to me are the reason im still sane
but god i wish theyd disappear only for a day

kinda miss the way i held you at the park
im sorry i couldnt overcome my struggles
i ran away from home when i was eight
never knew down the road itd be forceful

residing in a house but ive never had a home
i hate too many people but dislike being alone
living in the present cause im not one to plan
no sense of direction but i guess im just homebound

homebound

say goodbye to your fate
those eyes dont light up sky blue no more
cold nights turn to new days
but you just stay the same

and the bruises will fade
but your attitude wont

cuts deep into my soul
it shatters like broken glass
and your words arent light as feathers
not so easy to meld it back

say goodbye to your fate
those eyes dont light up sky blue no more
cold nights turn to new days
but you just stay the same

look so confused and so dazed
lost the hours looking up

cuts deep into my soul
it shatters like broken glass
and your words arent light as feathers
not so easy to meld it back

broken glass

you dont seem to call anymore
i stared straight into the floor
and i cant feel at all anymore
caught in memories that i cant forget

what caused your love for me to disappear?
and how many mLs till im full of it?
drown out the air with the clouds
mum told me not to care
while speaking i caught myself projecting
at least now im self aware

i'll put my thoughts on hold now
let the line ring and die out
not long until i break down
survive a little somehow

drive away from my house
is there finally time for peace now?
might scream until my voice dies
cause i dont think that i can take it no more

do you feel remorse at all?
cause id sink straight into the floor
i thought-
im stuck

i just wish that i was a kid
innocent and no thoughts of regret
and flashbacks of you

cause i just cant get past
all the lies i was fed
and you talked down my answers
with secrets we kept
getting caught in the crossfire
i just called the lifeline
to stop myself ending it all

i'll put my thoughts on hold now
let the line ring and die out
not long until i break down
survive a little somehow

i'll wring all my insides out
smash my phone and write now
lie until i break down
survive a little somehow

i'll break my fucking doors down
blast music in my bed now
im far past looking back
survived for a little too long

and i'll drive away from my house
is there finally time for peace now?
might scream until my voice dies
cause i dont think that i can take it no more

resulting trauma

thank you to all the people involved in camp boneyard 2 and for letting me perform in the b2b

where im at

hey, i wanted to update you on where ive been and whats in store for glisten

ive been hella busy with work and trying to catch a break after making the album has been rough

i go back to uni this year and the study/work balance will affect my ability to make the things ive been hoping on finishing

enjoy losing sleep, itll come back at some point or another

vs the world

losing sleep (and time in the grand scheme of all things)

i decided to upload this track because it was the catalyst for the glisten project. you can hear it in vs the world a fair bit so enjoy

i'll be the one
to mess up everything
there's not much that i bring
to the table of love

and she is so essential
her touch is so gentle
keep this confidential
and i cant ask for more

essential

welcome to a new era
vs the world; out now

glisten!
