i used to walk along these narrow streets of cobblestone in the rain 
till u ran out my life and made a fool of me 
but you stay, stay until it hurts 

i used to run away from anything that'd cause me pain now i wait 
for the light of my love to linger in your eyes 
so i'll stay, stay until it hurts 

now that i'm sure you're right there's not a chance in hell tonight for embrace 
if you close ur eyes you'll never have to see me again 

so please stay, stay until it hurts

Stay Until It Hurts

rough draft of something dumb for someday soon

Forget the stupid nasty songs 
i’ll sing them when we get along
just Find someone to love that you grew up with

It’s nothing physical I miss
But when you lose them in your kiss
You’re bending over backwards just to kill it 

All the ways you said you bled 
I’ll speak to you when I am dead
You’re not the girl i knew and fell in love with

the taste of lemon in your mouth
It’s Nasty sharp it’s sweet and sour
It’s bitter but it’s what you fell in love with

I would do it all again
Look at my vomit in the pan
Uneasy but the pain releases with it 

Forget considerate today 
I Need you as you walk away    
I’m not the girl you knew and fell in love with

Lemon Love

i don't want it, i don't need it baby 
don't let it happen again 
i'm done reading into your bullshit, baby 
i'm a better man 

and when we're walking down the street 
you say that you need it 
and you will give it all to me 
you say it, you spray it 

i don't want it, i don't need it baby 
don't let it happen again 
i'm done reading into your bullshit, baby 
i'm a better man 

i see them walking talking in circles, baby 
spewing news again 
no offense but i could care less about it 
i'll be the better man 

and when you're lying next to me 
you say that you want it 
but you are lying through your teeth 
you say it, but that's bullshit 

i don't want it, i don't need it baby 
don't let it happen again 
i'm done reading into your bullshit, baby 
i'm a better man 

i don't want it, i don't need it but i'm letting it happen again

bullshit demo

I am the ghost in your house 
Ur the voice showing me out 

Politely leave 

I am the dirt in your floor 
Clear out the cracks but there's more 

Energy release 

I hear the ghost moving around 
Haunting you until you breakdown 

Empty hollow out of control 

I am the ghost in your house 
Haunting you until you break down 

Empty hollow out of control

Ghost

i'd rather be in love 
but this is something different
and i do everything i can to be good enough

i see the way you look at her 
your eyes are shining
we're stuck along the way i fight an uphill battle

one in a million
lonely people
wake up pieces
of unknown feelings

i'd rather be in love 
but this is something different
and so i call u up, i'm standing in the kitchen

you say you want me there
i lie, i say i'm busy making 
hot sauce and ramen

one in a million
lonely people
wake up pieces
of unknown feelings

Hot Sauce And Ramen

stoned and driving home
i still see the glow
dancing on the river underneath

suddenly i froze
standing there i know
i have all the emptiness you need

i'm sailing down rio vista
under the notion that redefines me
it's so bad, the way you moves slowly 
and kiss me so softly
down rio vista lane

so take me by the hand
let me be ur man
i have all the emptiness you need

rosy cheeks and wine
head up in the sky
you know how to sweep me off my feet

i'm sailing down rio vista
under the notion that redefines me
somehow we keep it together
though waves still roll through me 
and sweep me off my feet

so you always get what you want

rio vista

i don't want this to be over 
i can't lose this when i'm older 
i cut my hair but i still feel the same 
i can't tell them they don't deserve the pain 
i can't help it im just a piece of shit 
i can't tell you how much i'm over it 
i can't miss u cuz it won't be the same 
i can't hold u but u drive me insane 

why do i hate myself? my thoughts r humbling 
the only thing i want is to mean something 
it's something in my head it's more than i can take 
how is it 4am how am i still awake 

just like the tiny splinter that's now part of me 
the only thing i want is to mean something 
so i lay on the floor, imagine bleeding out 
and my insides soak in to this 100 year old house

haircut demo

a quiet night alone in my bedroom 
a ceiling of stars that glow in the dark 
i'm ok to do what i have to 
fade into the light and come out at night 

i feel like i'm screaming and calling your name 
but you stare silent 
come to the salt water come watch the waves 
forming circles 
i can feel all of me slipping away 
beneath the surface 
but i know that one day we'll all be ok 
and live in a beach house 

a quiet drive alone in the mountains 
the gold fireflies and stars they are mine 
gravity, depression cherry 
a hole that looks blue 
and a knob that is red from a heart-shaped bruise 

i feel like i'm screaming and calling your name 
but you stare silent 
come to the salt water come watch the waves 
forming circles 
i can feel all of me slipping away 
beneath the surface 
but i know that one day we'll all be ok 
and live in a beach house 

tonight i'll sit and watch conversation 
my phone in my hand 
i'll smoke secondhand 

i feel like i'm screaming and calling your name 
but you stare silent 
come to the salt water come watch the waves 
forming circles 
i can feel all of me slipping away 
beneath the surface 
but i know that one day we'll all be ok 
and live in a beach house

beach house 2 demo

in my dreams you were there
putting braids in my hair
i'm not looking for the answers i swear 
in my heart i know there's something there

in my arms you weren't there
on the phone you were scared
i didn't mean to bring you down love i swear 
it's a dream in the salty midnight air

midnight air

i am alone for the very first time in 7 years 
how can you live without the ones you hold so dear? 

i hear your voice like a megaphone ringing in my ear 
it's like a sound i've heard before, just harsh enough 

just a little nothing to get me through the something 
it's real 

i'm old enough to be alone in the ugly places 
why do i feel just like a child in the open spaces? 

remember the time you spent away from all the others? 
it's real

finally alone
