IMF Community Playlist Spring 2022

When you can’t keep going, you can, just know that.

never wake up

This song is an attempt to be a bit more upbeat and introspective and less slow and introspective.  Its inspired by a lot of 90s alternative rock that I listened to as a teenager, I tried to capture the same dreamy, shoegazey vibe  that music had.

---------------------------------------------
Smells like a storm is coming
waiting for the weather to break
we're always waiting for the rain
drop a penny in the well
count how long it falls
we're always wishing for
the echoes of a memory

It always feels like the axis turns on me
waiting for some tidal disruption
to carry me away
hoping for the glass borders to break
dropping pennies in the well
and wishing for the rain

Smells like the ashes burning
waiting for the weather to break
we're always running from the pain
dropping pennies in the well
count how long it falls
we're always looking for
someone else to blame

It always feels like the axis turns on me
waiting for some tidal disruption
to carry me away
hoping for the glass borders to break
dropping pennies in the well
and wishing for the rain

——LYRICS——

five more alarms until i get outta bed
get dressed and all fed 
wish id be sleeping instead
or spending all my time out doing things that interest me
i cant think of the last thing that you said which impressed me.

wait one minute in the back of my mind
i’ve got forty more years until i’m off of this grind
i’m so sick of it
i’ll just take a hit
and just wait a bit

you can’t tell me i’ve been wasting my time
i’ve got a million different things to get done by five
i’m so sick of it, this life is full of shit
i’ll just take a hit 

and just wait a bit

lyrics:

(Wither away)

Keep my flaws hidden within these  
Four white walls, ‘cause that’s where I’ll be
I’m vacant in this town
Surrounded by a sea of sound

These days, I always start to worry
‘Cause I’m not fine when you let me be
I’m waiting for someone
While holding on to anyone

I know I’m ignoring all my health
I know I’m going on in stealth
You will be better off with someone else 
I’ve shown the best side of myself

I know I’m ignoring all my health
I know I’m ignoring all my-

Wither away
With all of my dreams
Every day is the same routine

Passing time, going along
I am too far gone

Stuck in my bed
Nowhere to be
Looking ahead
There’s nothing to see

Trapped in screams I can’t get out
Maybe I’m better off homebound

I’m on trial, you’d never catch me
In the act, ‘cause that’s what you see
It’s starting to wear me out
But I don’t want to give in (into this doubt)

Now do you wonder what's on my mind?
Concealing everything you could find
I’m waiting for someone 
(help me understand the way I feel)
While holding on to anyone

I know I’m ignoring all my health
I know I’m going on in stealth
You will be better off with someone else 
I’ve shown the best side (best side)

Wither away
With all of my dreams
Every day is the same routine

Passing time, going along
I am too far gone

Stuck in my bed
Nowhere to be
Looking ahead
There’s nothing to see

Trapped in screams I can’t get out
Maybe better off homebound

I, I won’t recite
The lonely nights
I spent denying 
My whole life
This has been fine
Show me a guide
But no advice would help

And I
I can’t decide
What’s wrong or right
And yet the nights
Keep flashing by
So here I try
Don’t pass me by
I’m running out of time

Wither away
With all of my dreams
Every day is the same routine

Passing time, going along
I am too far gone

Stuck in my bed
Nowhere to be
Looking ahead
There’s nothing to see

Scream out loud
No one’s around
I think I’m better off homebound

lyrics:

why are we fighting

yea

you said it's so typical me just to shut it down

time is runnin out

yea    

finding patience seems so hard

and i dont wanna lose that spark
 
i'd never lay hands on you

unless you wanted me to


(girl i dont wanna break ur heart)


you know what i'm here for

oh     

i told you these days 

it's too late to just turn it around

yea
 
walking on bridges while we light all our matches

and watch it all burn to the ground

right now

i'm done with all this playing around

deflecting the blame so much that its making a sound


(i dont wanna) break your heart

break-break-break your heart

(i dont wanna) break your heart

break-break-break-break-break your h-
