like that

as reality fades to daydream

Lyrics:
Why'd you go back on an omen
Call up on a moment
You gave everything that you had
Oh, I'd want you back if you told me
We're living in a story
You gave everything that you had

If you were happy, tell me the sounds
That you heard everyday of your life
If you could dig me a hole in the ground
Something to keep us playing around and around

If you could show me who I want to be
We could tiptoe around our hearts
If you could show me who you want to see
We could skip the imaginary part

Why'd you go back on an omen
Call up on a moment
You gave everything that you had
Oh, I'd want you back if you told me
We're living in a story
You gave everything that you had

Cut ties, dead weight
Figure out
Oblivious all of the time
Show me
All the times you fell
And I think that you're my remedy
Falling back, falling back
Eyes rolling, seen it all
Miss that, miss that
Tied to an idea
'Cause I've been waiting for too long
From dawn 'til the sun will set

If you could show me who I want to be
We could tiptoe around our hearts
If you could show me who you want to see
We could skip the imaginary part

Why'd you go back on an omen
Call up on a moment
You gave everything that you had
Oh, I'd want you back if you told me
We're living in a story
You gave everything that you had
But if I told you the truth
Could I close my eyes & hear you say it too
And if you whisper "I love you"
We could skip the imaginary part

loving love, with oakscreen

big thanks to paddy (@clovehitch) for advice on arrangement and mixing

If it's not for love then what the hell are we doing now?
Going out just to drink it up and letting it go to waistdown?
Is it too hard just to say
You don't even wanna look at my face
And you're drenched and drowned in make up,
bled your makeup now.

I can't quite read your face, Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, Mona
Please communicate, I'm waiting for you to say 
something that will end all the pain.

I'm not a psychopath blowing up your phone for fun.
Could you listen to my song cuz I think you're the one.
Your dad is one lunatic if he wants me to stop
cuz I'm stealing love with you and I'm still in love with you.

If it's not for love then what the hell are we doing now?
Going out just to drink it up and letting it go to waistdown?
Is it too hard just to stay in love
You don't even wanna look at my face
And you're drenched and drowned in make up,
bled your makeup now.

If you want to get to know me a little bit better, then you should try

telling if it's too late, I know it could just wait
telling if it's too late, I know it could just wait

to confide in this feeling
her sapling: overgrown
to sing into the bleeding heavens

im waiting
or am i sinking?

got some mud in my blood, let it rot
got some crud in my brain, let it clot up
and will i miss this sound when it’s not around?
will i miss the sound?

Lyrics:
Your world so cold, stone hearted froze give me your mold
Afraid to go, I'm taking slow to another level 
Please don't choke, don't trap your thoughts behind what brought us close
Beneath my dome, is where I store my only devil

Cash out no more leather
Flee until I'm dead'r
Closing up on nether, help her she's a tempest
Blocking off what's better
Letting in what's not so better
Staying safe in my bed and don't bother to check up on me cause I'm sleeping

Been sleeping 

Weeooo
How can it be sometimes 
When we're not alike
Guess you choose to be yourself
Weeooo
How can it be that i never
Closed my eyes 
When you were by my side
Weeooo
How can it be sometimes 
When we're not alike
Guess you choose to be yourself
Weeooo
How can it be that i never
Closed my eyes 
When you were by my side

Keep on mentioning what is like to be had
I just felt a lot bout what wasn't there
Flip the breakers give me your all don't be scared
make it up to mars let's make it just for us

Whatcha tryna be
There's no else who'll see you
As you wanna be
I'll tick you off and tease you
Just to make me feel
Like there's something going 
But truth is I have a
ticking time bomb
Emotionally Intoxi.. personallity

Walk out on me sobbing
truthfully you mean
That I'm not felling sorry
Your wrong I'll make you see
Reason with my story
My feelings, my past and my now and my then and my now and my friends and my life and my then and my now 

Where'd you go?
I couldn't find what was left, sitting
lone by my desk, I'm fully 
aware of my stress
What could it mean?
Something there to behold 
Yet not for me to control 
It all just seemed like a joke
Where'd you go?
I couldn't find what was left, sitting
lone by my desk, I'm fully 
aware of my stress
What could it mean?
Something there to behold 
Yet not for me to control 
It all just seemed like a joke
Where'd you go?
I couldn't find what was left, sitting
lone by my desk, I'm fully 
aware of my stress
What could it mean?
Something there to behold 
Yet not for me to control 
It all just seemed like a joke

Bad Joke

purity of heart,

i am my false alarm,

my good impulse does bad,
my bad impulse does wrong

tell me if i’m strong
so i can play my strengths for you, love

17 pieces of an angle that i never pictured,
sunlight on a ridge,
a sketching of my near prediction

i don’t know what you call that?
i don’t know what you’d call that?

i don’t know where i’ll go but you shouldn’t be there alone.

my good impulse does bad
and my bad impulse does wrong

we’re all here singing the same song
we’re all here singing the same song
we’re all here singing the same song
we’re all here singing the same song

impulse

This track is inspired by an article of the same name:
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/i-dont-know-how-to-explain-to-you-that-you-should_b_59519811e4b0f078efd98440

This kinda captures my philosophy at the moment with my life and I just really liked the notion.
It's also a little about parasocial relationships and how people try to give advice for things like mental health. I try to think of it like this: I can't tell you how to see a reason to keep going, why you should exist, how to find meaning, etc, but I hope, in time, things may emerge or you may notice things that can make those dull moments feel worthwhile.

Today somebody I worked with passed away, and while her last few years alive were not the best, i'm glad I may have been able to ease her suffering even if only a little.

LYRICS

I can't tell you how to see it
Something for the morning
And I can't show you
something

There's lungs in the pavement
There's dust in my arms
and you don't see me

and you don't see me at all

I Don't Know How To Explain To You That You Should Care About Other People

Boyfriends has no set meaning or anything, but it's still one of my favourite tracks ever
it just evokes so many things and i find i can build stories for it as it goes along, it's very cool and ethereal in that way in my opinion

Boyfriends

So Far So Good

i am not an enemy
i just wanna be your friend
i am not an enemy
standing in the hallways
laughing and listening
to music, acting like we always do
acting like we don’t exist 
and excuse me
but i hate to say i hate that
i hate hating the commons
i hate increasing my pace when
i know you’re right behind me
walking to our class
maybe we could stop
talk about what we have in common
such as
we both have insecurities
we have liked a girl and
i’m sure she isn’t purposely
hurting me, and the same goes for you
the pain that you’ve felt
is something that i’ve gone through
she’d be perfectly
okay with us
being friends
i just wanna stop pretending that i hate you
i just wanna be
i just wanna be your friend
i just wanna be your friend
i just wanna be your friend
i am not an enemy
why do butterflies
fly in my stomach when i see you?
they fly around
faster than a hungry, wild zebra
kicking my stomach to death
because it sees a threat 
to my over-valued reputation
i hate this persistent intimidation
that i’m always facing
just because your face is 
pretty
or the way your chain sits upon your neck
or maybe because you’re
famous
i remember at that football game
i was standing right behind you and i was
trying to act at the same way
that i'd act around my friends
but they were drooling over you
so i was too afraid to say this in the future
listen man, i just wanna talk to you
maybe become friends
but i have never had that opportunity
to talk to you and see
if i could promise peace
between us
maybe we could farm some greens
pardon me for being personal about it
but i just wanna be
i just wanna be your friend
i just wanna be your friend
i just wanna be your friend
i am not an enemy
i just wanna be your
i am not an enemy
why can't we be friends
why can't we be friends
why can't we be friends
why can't we be friends ?!?!?!?!
i just wanna be your friend !!!!1
i just wanna be your friend!!!!!
i just wanna be your friend!!
i just wanna be your friend!!
i just wanna be your friend!!
i just wanna be your friend!
i just wanna be your friend!
i am not an enemy
i am not an enemy
i just wanna be your friend
