A song about a moment in time

You try and use your hair to hide the way you feel about me
But we both know that’s not what I wanna see
And that’s not what you wanna show me
Show me the things that no has seen
The things that no one else gets 
But I do and you get me too

Cloak and dagger and you like it that way
And I used to too but this is new 
I want all of you I want all of you
Lie to me lie to me baby tell me this can work cause I don’t see it but

Do you remember the time we drew that bottom line 
There was stars, smoke, cold breath and we were frozen 
And I kept my face straight when I asked you to leave
But we never got that far cause we’re still here 
And still apart 
But I still believe cause one thing that I see as much as we tried
You’re stuck to me and I’m stuck to you
My beautiful glue

Fall first what is there to lose 
If I fall right after you and we 
Both trip into a bed and then it’s just me and you 
And as we stare as long as we both dare 
We might find ourselves closing distance through the air 
And find what we’ve been looking for

Lie on me lie on me baby fuck me till hurts
And I’ll hurt you too and we’ll talk about all those 
memories memories some we still haven’t made yet
But some we have like the time 

Like the time we drew that bottom line
There were all those stars, smoke, cold breath and we were frozen 
And I kept my face straight when I asked you to leave
But we never got that far cause we’re still here 
And still apart 
But I still believe cause one thing that I see as much as we tried
You’re stuck to me and I’m stuck to you
My beautiful glue

My midnight girl you come as you please
But baby please believe me I wanna come to
my midnight girl look at me and see me 
And watch me as you please me I’m gonna come for you too

Like the time we drew that bottom line
There were all those stars, smoke, cold breath and we were frozen 
And I kept my face straight when I asked you to leave
But we never got that far cause we’re still here 
And still apart 
But I still believe cause one thing that I see as much as we tried
You’re stuck to me and I’m stuck to you
My beautiful glue

Frozen

This song is written for two people. One that isn't with us anymore and another that isn't in my life at this point but helped me become who I am today.

I'm really good at writing songs but not great at wrapping them up
You could say that I don't know when to say enough 
You could say its got something to do with the stars
I think whatever trait I have I share that trait with yours

I've been playing more guitar, I've been letting people in
I let in this girl last year and it turned out so bad

That it made an album I'm still a kid
Ask any of my friends, I work to pay for them
I wanna do the right thing but I don't think I care that much
Ask any of my friends, I'm a bit out of touch

I talk to one friend on the phone my best can't talk at all
I feel more alone than I ever have before
And I think that I'm cool with it
I think that I'm good
Just hope it falls in place, the way we said it would

You can't heal through somebody else you can only let them in
And hope that their presence there can save a bit of skin
Through stolen cars and cigarettes we've always found a way
To keep each other looking for the bright side of the day
I'm just saying hi, the only way I know how
And I just hope that you get this before they let you out

I made an album I'm still a kid
Ask any of our friends, I haven't been great to them
I wanna do the right thing but I'm thinking that I care too much
Ask any of our friends, I'm still a bit out of touch

letter to a friend

I fuck up
But you know
How this goes
Cause it’s the same thing every time 
It’s the same thing every time
It’s the same thing every time
I try to hold up back but we get drunk and you know that
At some point in the night I’ll call you mine

But you’re not mine you are yours
But you know how to keep me torn 
I try and move away but there’s something telling me to stay
I think it’s something in your eyes
oh it’s something in your eyes
Or something in the lies
You always told me
Cause you don’t care about me
Cause you’re the only thing that’s on your mind

When you say what you want it sounds like me
But all I get to do is sometimes wake up
And look around at all your makeup 
Dog pictures on the wall
And think to myself 

Hey girl I heard you got some problems 
Let’s meet up and talk all about em
We’ll get drunk and forget the conversations 
Almost as easily as our obligations
Lies are only as real as you make em
Come to my place I'll show you how I fake em
Go along and act like you believe me
And I’ll in turn let you pleasantly deceive me
This can’t last we both now it won’t 
And when it ends we’ll both say it’s not our fault
The only things that’ll suffer are our health and our minds
But that’s nothing new 
Cause it’s the same thing everytime

I need some time I need some space 
I need to not go into every bar in town and see your face
But I don’t want to replace you
I’m fine and you’re ok but we as long as it’s this way we’ll never move on 

And that’s all I fucking want is to move on
All I really want is to write a song and it not be about you
Cause lately you’re the only thing that’s on my mind

Is there something on your mind?
Is there something in your mind?
You don’t want me to know
Cause if so girl I think that you should know
That I couldn’t care less that you’re too blind

To know when you got something good
I mean you really got something good
And if you do then you don’t treat it like you should
Just like yourself and that’s fine 
Cause it’s the same thing every time

Hey girl I heard you got some problems 
Let’s meet up and talk all about em
We’ll get drunk and forget the conversations 
Almost as easily as our obligations
Lies are only as real as you make em
Come to my place I'll show you how I fake em
Go along and act like you believe me
And I’ll in turn let you pleasantly deceive me
This can’t last we both now it won’t 
And when it ends we’ll both say it’s not our fault
The only things that’ll suffer are our health and our minds
But that’s nothing new 
Cause it’s the same thing every time

Cycles

Why tell me why have been brought this low
You're out there looking for what the world has to show
The sound of you and your footsteps are all I need to hear
The voices work against me in your head and in your ear

What is there to fear?

These last two months have seemed like a year 
But ever since Thanksgiving it's been hard enough to feel
Like we did in that field forever ago
With the name we can't remember but don't really need to know

What else do you need to know? 

I need to be looking out a starry window
Or laying on a comfy pillow with you next to me
I need to feel your hand in my own dear
Why else would I be here writing hopeless songs to you? 

Why tell me please do you have to do this
What is there to prove if we brought our trust back home
And if we couldn't find it or didn't have time to bind it
Is it still around us floating underneath our nose

Where ever the wind goes

I know you need perspective and I'm prone to get reflective
And I know it's for best but for this feeling in my chest
And I wonder if I knew you or just what you chose to show
So I'll hold you in my mind the way I saw you so long ago 

So long ago

I need to be looking out a starry window
Or laying on a pillow with your head next to me
I need to feel your hand in my own dear
Why else would I be here writing hopeless songs to you? 

Eye for an eye I really couldn't blame you
I know I couldn't tame you even if I wanted to
I feel like I'm losing you
I feel like I'm losing you

I need to be looking out a starry window
Or laying on a pillow with your head right next to me
I need to feel your hand in my own dear
Why else would I be here writing hopeless songs to you?

Starry Windows

Sorry I didn’t kiss you, when I left this morning 
I couldn’t stand to make that perfect face change it’s shape
If only for an instant 
Please give me your forgiveness 
so I can make my mind do what I want it to
For the rest of the day, 

I used to want to walk as far as I can go
And I still do, now I just want you to be with me, on my journey to the moon

And if you turn back, and leave me walking
I’ll never shut up talking about the girl who graced my world
And now I know that I should have told you
but I couldn’t find the words, so here it goes, I hope you know that

What’s mine is yours and what’s yours is mine
And we’ve never been too good at taking our sweet time
So why start now, throw our dreams in the ground
And sing as we watch them twist like trees from the ground to our sound

I hate to see you cry and you hate to see me
let my foolish pride ruin a nice day outside
but maybe we need it sometimes to see that 
All our fights, they’re not worth a drop on the surface
soon as I can sit down and focus 
On what's right in my life and that’s you, it’s always been you

thanks for not holding every word I should have known against me 
There’s enough in this world 
trying to fence me and box me in 
But you don’t, you let me grow, and now I know
Who I want to grow with and I know you already know this 
but I feel it’s worth repeating over and over again

What’s mine is yours and what’s yours is mine
And never we been too good at taking our sweet time 
So why stop now, throw our dreams into the ground
And sing as we watch them twist like trees from the ground to our sounds

morning kisses

I've been spending too much money and
Leading with my vanity 
But I just love being home
6 months doesn't seem like much
Especially leaning on this crutch 
Oh I don't know how to be alone
Your heart is full of feelings and 
It seems that heartbeats bleeding 
A steady stream on the floor 
The boards they leak and the door
That you can't open all the way
Cause the room inside is dark 
and full of things you might be too eager to say

When I look up at night
The only thing I see is a bright world waiting 
For me to step inside
When I look at the ground
I see all the faces in all the places that I'm about to go

To harbor a grievance with your life
Is to open yourself to angst and strife 
Just give yourself a fucking break
That's easier said than done I know
Like not getting drunk at a music show
I can't seem to control myself
So when I try to set a forward pace
My eyes are fixed on a backward space
Oh I can't wait to be on my own
 
When I look up at night
The only thing I see is a bright world waiting 
For me to step inside
When I look at the ground
I see all the faces in all the places that I'm about to go
And if some of those faces will dade
Ill look back to the sky and accept that I might not know the way to go
Until then I'll sit on my bed
And write silly little  songs to feel like I'm moving and not just biding time

Whats wrong whats right 
And all of the grey shades that flicker more in the dead of night
Cause this life is just a game
And as we have found there's no two games are the same

When I look up at night
only thing I see is a bright world waiting 
For me to step inside
When I look at the ground
I see all the faces in all the weird places that I'm about to go

homecoming

How strange today to see your name light up my phone and
Say something vague that I didn't know how to respond 
And Is it a game to you or are you just that indecisive 
Wash it away with something that I can't stand the taste of

Is it ok to fill my downtime with distractions
And what does it say that I love all their reactions
Far and away the best part about this lighting 
Is that you can't see my eyes
and my thoughts without disguise
finding comfortable in the lies that get harder to tell to you

There isn't a scene anymore
It's a beauty contest and you thought high school was bad
And the best part about loving anything 
Gets caught up in the notions you both had
Let out a scream lock your door
Do whatever you can to keep the feelings you once had
And try to keep them in your mind, like an anchor for your soul

This weather's been giving me the chills and I can't seem to shake them
My teeth clench so hard I swear that one day soon I'll break them
Passions a chore when you can't seem to stay awake
long enough to keep your place
in the book we all create
letting a ghost writer type away your (only) part

There isn't a scene anymore
It's a beauty contest and you thought high school was bad
And the best part about loving anything 
Gets caught up in the notions you both had
Let out a scream lock your door
Do whatever you can to keep the feelings you once had
And try to keep them in your mind, like an anchor for your soul

the scene

It was her turn in the pages of my book
But a short chapter
You’d have to know where to look
Or you’ll settle in after
But that’s probably ok
Oh oh no no you should stay oh 
No no, you should stay

Its almost that time of year when we try and listen to
Time to shut up and hear
What the world has to say for our sakes
Cause I’ve been feeling disconnected
And I’m been feeling somewhat flat
My simulations having trouble
 Can’t seem to get me off my back

And now I’m just wasting you away 
Wasting you away 

How many steps does it take for you to walk from the door
Up to the third floor and with everything that that entails
Cause I’ve been listening to your message
And I think I’ve got it figured out
The proof is hidden in the pudding 
And the puddings all run out
And you know I don’t want to hurt you 
You’re all I think about 
But we might have to rethink things here
Before I do something I might regret
 

Cause I’m just wasting you away

wasting her away

Wasting you away with angus
