Run does not count - 2

It’s easy to blame the other person in a breakup, but what about when your own complicity in a toxic dynamic comes to shake you awake? Objectively is about that haunting realization, soaring from a lilting acoustic opening to a full country-rock arrangement as the truth sets in.

Lyrics:

[Verse I]
never thought of my love as a loaded gun
but I'm objectively trying to take you down
'cause I always want your eyes on me
but then they're not on the road where they ought to be
and neither of us knew
and that's no excuse

[Verse II]
I can't say your name without feeling like
it will explode if I don't say it right
and tear a hole so wide that the whole world sees
and gets its own ideas about you and me
well, they don't understand
but don't they again?

[Chorus]
this is not how good love starts
this is not good love

[Verse III]
would have given my lungs to keep you around
but I'm objectively doing better now
because if I never dance with you
then I'm not second-guessing my every move
and I miss how it hurts
but isn't that worse?

[Bridge]
and this is my conclusion, honey
that you work better as a memory
because reality is messy
but we are dark objectively
I swear I meant the whole thing truly
but you work better as a memory
so honey, don't text me
so honey, don't text me

Honey

Objectively

Tangled Hearts

I love the way you say you love me 
As you blow smoke rings so casually °o○

Smoke Rings

HiddenK - Camera's Off

(Verse 1)
You touch me slow… — but your mind’s on her,
Lips on mine… — but it’s her you prefer.
You fuck me hard… — but you fuck her too,
I know it’s a game… — but I still want you.

I taste your lies… — when you kiss me deep,
I let you fuck me… — but you make me weep.
I feel your hands… — but they’re not the same,
You want her… — but I’ll play the game.

(Chorus 1)
How you betray me… — how you betray me…
You fuck her hard… — but you’re deep inside me.
How you betray me… — how you betray me…
Kiss her hard… — but you’re still my needy.
How you betray me… — how you betray me…
No rules… — no lines, just go too far.
How you betray me… — how you betray me…
You break me down… — but I’ll take it to the stars.

(Verse 2)
You’re lost in her… — but your cock’s inside,
You fuck her slow… — but you need my ride.
You pull me close… — then you leave me cold,
I let you take me… — but I’m growing bold.

You kiss her lips… — but your hands are mine,
I see your lies… — but you still wanna grind.
You want both… — but I’ll be the one,
You may betray me… — but the game’s not done.

(Bridge)
You fuck her slow… — but you still want me,
You want it raw… — but can’t you see?
You’re mine to take… — I’ll make you wait,
I’m your obsession… — you’ll seal your fate.

(Chorus 2)
How you betray me… — how you betray me…
You fuck her hard… — but you’re deep inside me.
How you betray me… — how you betray me…
Kiss her hard… — but you’re still my needy.
How you betray me… — how you betray me…
No rules… — no lines, just go too far.
How you betray me… — how you betray me…
You break me down… — but I’ll take it to the stars.

(Outro)
How you betray me… — but I’ll let you fall,
You fuck her now… — but you still hear my call.
I’ll take you back… — I’ll make you crave,
You’ll always want me…

Betray me

NEVER CHANGE

[Verse 1 ]
You used to be my peace at night
Now I wake up reachin’ for your side
You say we grew apart with time,
But you still log in just to watch my life
I ain’t cheated, I ain’t lied
I was solid I was ride or die
Now you out dressin’ pain in pride
But your eyes still beg me not to try
He hold you, but you pull away
You still think ‘bout me when y’all lay
You don’t want me, but won’t set me free
You want control  not love from me

 [Chorus]
I just don’t get it
why You let me go, but won’t let me forget it
Say it’s done, but you still in my space
Girl, if it’s over, why you won’t let me escape?

 [Verse 2]
How you hate me but still watch my stories?
Act like you healed, but you still record me
Every time I move, you pull me back
You hate the truth, but you love the past
I ain’t bitter, I’m confused as hell
You burned the bridge, then wished me well
Keep your new man out my name
You still hold guilt when y’all do your thing
You post that smile like nothin’ wrong
Then text “I miss you” right before dawn
I stayed down, you changed the rules
Now I feel like the fool who kept it true

 [Bridge]
Girl, if you don’t want me, then why you here?
If I ain’t the one, then why you near?
You let me drown, but won’t let me swim
You let me go, but don’t let me win

 [Final Chorus]
I just don’t get it (nah)
Why you let me go, but won’t let me forget it? (no)
Say you don’t want love, but you still in my business (still in it)
Call me when you lonely like I’m still your forgiveness (every time)
I just don’t get it
You let me go, but won’t let me forget it
Say it’s done, but you still in my space
Girl, if it’s over, why you won’t let me escape?

I Just Don’t Get It

“Moonlight Knows” is a hauntingly introspective ballad that drifts through the quiet spaces of memory, loss, and longing. Set beneath the soft glow of night, the song explores the invisible weight of questions unanswered and the silence left behind by time. With poetic lyrics and a melancholic atmosphere, it speaks to the universal fear of being forgotten and the fleeting nature of peace. Delicate yet powerful, it’s a meditation on what remains when everything else fades, echoes in the moonlight.

I Don't Want to Go

Loving You Is Killing Me

Lightning in my veins, I move, I burn,
every chain I break, no shame, I turn.
Skin to drum, desire’s flame,
gods remember when I call their name.

No shame — only fire,
my body is altar, my hunger is choir.
I dance — I release,
I give my bloodline holy peace.

Hands like thunder, hips like prayer,
passion rising in the air.
No king can bind, no cage can stay,
this hunger drives the wheel away.

No shame — only fire,
my body is altar, my hunger is choir.
I dance — I release,
I give my bloodline holy peace.

Грех сладкий — sweet sin, sweet sin.
Nind zaaga’igan doodem — my body, my kin.
Hold er heilagt — flesh is holy.
Rise in lust, rise in glory.

No shame — only fire,
my body is altar, my hunger is choir.
I dance — I release,
I give my bloodline holy peace.

No shame — only fire,
desire is fate, the wheel is higher.
I dance — I release,
we break the chains in ecstasy.

The sixteen sessions -  November Paris kiss

Ginger cream, sweet to taste
I don’t know how commonplace it is
to fantasize about someone for so long.
But to think another place or time,
we’d pull off victimless crime,
avoided all of this heartache
is real enough to dream about.

Do you think I
ever could 
rely on this?
It’s a feeling 
that’s escaped me in the past 
My hesitance is complicated.

(Some times I want you.
Sunbeams fall on me
& take me away for a while.)

Don't get it wrong I still think about you all the time.
and now wonder if I’d even feel this way about you
If I hadn’t tried so hard to counterfeit the way you looked at him that night, 
in hindsight it's revealing.

Do you think I 
ever could
rely on this?
It's a feeling
that’s betrayed me in the past.
Romantic or
exaggerated?

(Some times I want to.
Sunbeams fall on me
& take me away for a while.)

Is it real if I think it?
Is it real enough?
It’s real if I think it.
Is it real enough to chance?
Is it real if I think it?
Is it real enough?
It’s real enough I figure.

That's all I ever wanted from you (x8)
