When you respond
It’s mind over matter
‘Cus when I see you
Nothing else matters
So what’s wrong with me?
When I get poetic
Oh, I feel pathetic
It makes me feel so pathetic

Just stop and wonder
You think I belong here?
You can tell me to stay clear
And I’ll make it quick
So stick to a side
Stop changing the story
If you’re passing by
Then ride out the glory

So tell me you’re tired
Now that you know the truth
You think you know me
You act like you have a clue
Now nobody’s alive
And both your hands stain red
From all the lies that I’ve told
And the hearts I should’ve loved instead

Just stop and wonder
You think I belong here?
You can tell me to stay clear
And I’ll make it quick
So stick to a side
Stop changing the story
If you’re passing by
Then ride out the glory

The Glory

My album 'Treasure' is out now & this song is on it! Stream it here - https://ffm.to/treasurealbum

Bite down on the pavement
Fainting on the trampoline
Is it sacred?
Wake up, am I frightening?
By the worst surprise,
I think I’ve been spinning
Through the worst surprise
You got nothing for sinning

Can’t you open up your mind?
Can you still hear me on the other side?
But it’s like a game
You were one and the same
But you stayed the same, yeah you stayed the same
And I was just a mistake
For you to make
For you to make

I thought you said
It’ll be the thing to hold us down
You think it’s so sad
But I’m the one that’s waking up
From the worst surprise
I thought we were winning
From the worst surprise
Is this a beginning or the end?
(Is this the end?)

Can’t you open up your mind?
Can you still hear me on the other side?
But it’s like a game
You were one and the same
But you stayed the same, yeah you stayed the same
And I was just a mistake
For you to make
For you to make
Can’t you open up your mind?
Can you still hear me on the other side?
But it’s like a game
You were one and the same
But you stayed the same, yeah you stayed the same
And I was just a mistake
For you to make
For you to make

The Mend

You found a way to break me out
Finally, we’re not freaking out
‘Cus honestly, I won’t talk about
That finally I’m not freaking out

But I know
You wanna stir up my patience
Are you cold?
Just wait at the station

I’m here to stay
For another round
I’ll never say
What brought me down
I don’t even know her
But now I’m closer to you
The body that chose her
Was something for you to do

But I know
You wanna stir up my patience
Are you cold?
Just wait at the station
‘Cus I know
You think I’m a loser
A soul who’s so cold
A substance abuser

I found a way to carve me out
I’ll go away when there’s nothing to worry about
Finally, I’m not scared of you
Finally, I’m not afraid of you

Are You Cold?

Am I the one to let you down?
Am I the one that fucked around?
And found out (oh that was so bad)
That I always had a choice
Yes, I always had a choice
I’m the one that made it out
‘Cus I was never one to believe, now
You’re thinking all the time
And you’re feeling all the time

These vines are growing tired
Of hearing the same point of view
It leaves something to desire
To keep something from the both of you
There’s a part of me that knew
I wasn’t strong enough for you
No, I don’t want to lose
The part of me that fell for you  

(Hello?)
And I’m fine
I know you’re my treasure
A soul who’s kind
We’ll do this together
And I’m fine
I know you’re my treasure
A soul who’s kind
We’ll do this together

In my mind, you
Changed for the better
I don’t mind you
And for a second I was lost
Examining the cost
You kept reaching for your cross
How long will
A cup of coffee keep you up, still?
I thought I’d never see the day
You woke up so afraid
A feeling you can’t shake
A feeling you can’t shake

I’ll say that you’re enough
A diamond in the rough
I’m telling you
I’m telling you
You still question my love
I’ve been there, once before
Shut one too many doors
And now you’re on the floor
‘Cus you want more

I keep all my promises on cloud nine
‘Cus someone told me I’ll be fine
If you killed off your secrets
Asking my voice of reason
Asking my voice of reason
How long will
That glass of wine last you?
I thought I’d never see the end
To wake up in a sweat
A feeling, not a threat
A feeling, not a threat

I’ll say that you’re enough
A diamond in the rough
I’m telling you
I’m telling you
You still question my love
I’ve been there, once before
Shut one too many doors
And now you’re on the floor
‘Cus you want more
I’ll say that you’re enough
A diamond in the rough
I’m telling you
I’m telling you
You still question my love
I’ve been there, once before
Shut one too many doors
And now you’re on the floor
‘Cus you want more

‘Cus you want more
‘Cus you want more
‘Cus you want more
‘Cus you want more

Diamond

You asked me if I’m happy
With a grin on your face
Like you know me
Like you opened the chest
Without a key
Did you like what you found inside?

I said, “baby”
“What’s with the sudden interest in my fate?”
“I knew this was meant to be a blank slate?”
I’m in no place to complain”

So catch me if you can
If you think I’ll fall apart
So catch me if you can
If you think you’re so smart
Don’t listen to my heart 
Don’t you know, it’s just an act
So catch me if you can,
If you think I’m going back

I guess you realized
That you picked up the pieces 
Of my life
And you’re still looking for a sign
An ode to the past, online
 
So darling, just trust me
No one’s filling this gap
While I’m in my prime
My words aren’t even mine,
But you think you’re reading my mind

So you wanna know the truth?
 I gotta wait until I learn something new
You think I’m writing my soul out
It doesn’t matter when it’s never about you

So catch me if you can
If you think I’ll fall apart
So catch me if you can
If you think you’re so smart
Don’t listen to my heart 
Don’t you know, it’s just an act
So catch me if you can,
If you think I’m going back

Catch Me (If You Can)

Dear friend
If you can hear me in this
This is not for you
I put a lot into making sure everything right
And I made every mistake 
Knowing one day I’m going to regret it
Or I might, I might regret it
I made everything feel like an ending
Because at that time
It probably, actually felt like an ending
And I’ve shared hopeless moments with you
But I’ve never once admitted to the fact that I’m at my best when I’m at my best when I recognize something as a beginning
Rather than an ending
And I’m saying this knowing full well
That I’m going to regret it
That doesn’t really matter, though
Because this is what’s on my mind right now
At this very moment
And I think it’s finally time to admit that
This is not me
This is who I want to be
And I will keep saying that
Forever and ever
With the hope that someday
I might end up getting it right
But the truth is, I don’t think I ever will
And that’s not a bad thing
Because neither will you
And it might be a little fucked up
To find a little bit of comfort in that
I wish you could hear me in this
The me I haven’t
Until I make the end a beginning
Everything will just be an ending

In Love With a Cynic

Here I am
I’m home safe
Is it wrong to feel like I won the race?
I saw the reason for my being
Watched the fall of all that ceased to be
And here you are
Lost your face
While all the while
I’m just a child of your fate
And I knew you well
(I knew you well)

‘Cus no one told me
Exactly who you are
No one told me
Your issues in the dark
And no one’s happy
To challenge what you know
No one’s happy
Maybe it’s time to let go

Here we are
One more step
To find the time
I thought I lost
But you kept
(Me in the snow)
(You kept me in the snow)
Just one more year
It got colder
My friends were driving out of spite
They got older
And I watched you grow
(I watched you grow)

‘Cus no one told me
Exactly who you are
No one told me
Your issues in the dark
And no one’s happy
To challenge what you know
No one’s happy
No one’s happy
