Question my intention
Is anything pure? 
Lazy introspection
As I inch towards the door 
Why waste time waiting to be sure?

Maybe luck will find me as I make my way to leave
Or maybe I’ve been luckier than I’ve wanted to believe 

I still can’t find the question
But I need it solved
Try to track down my intention 
As I wait to be absolved
What use is hope without resolve?

Maybe luck will find me as I make my way to leave
But what if I’ve been luckier than I’ve wanted to believe

Luckier (Demo)

cant stop the visions of the scale of things 
of all the filling and the hollowing 
the pretty things turn frightening then the beauty’s back again
and im feeling more inspired than i think ive ever been 

don’t want to think of what tomorrow brings 
can’t see who’s leading im just following
i try to check my facts but that feeling’s back again
and i start to feel more tired than i think ive ever been

The Hollowing (Demo)

Promise (Voice Memo)

Savoring seconds of secondhand smoke
I question the virtue of my self control
And I’m biting my tongue so hard I start to choke
Then decide I don’t want it and swallow it whole 

Back to seeking out something not meant to be seen
Twisting my intuition into the obscene
In a daze as my skin turns a darkening green
I’ve been scouring for days but I can’t get it clean

By all odds I’ll bet it stays like this
Lucky God made me an optimist 
 

A parasite passes off as an old friend
As I passively practice my patterns again
Paralyzed by predictions of how this could end
I don’t lie but I’ve always loved playing pretend 

Chains of distractions to chase out my fear of
The hours I’ve wasted amounting to years
And I know that it’s weak but at least it’s sincere 
If a tree falls I’ll make sure I cover my ears 

By all odds I’ll bet I stay like this 
But at least I’ll stay an optimist
