lyrics:

are you playing me?
like record you won’t keep.

are you buying time
just to waste the rest of mine

do i overthink
all the, motions everything.

moving forward now
but only inches at a time

i could never call you mine 

maybe im only holding me down
cut the ribbon and float away

maybe you’re only holding me back
i’ll cut you off so you can stay

its those little things
that make me question everything

will i be better off
if i pretend we never talked?

when I woke up that night
and felt a shift, a tear in time

was that the moment you
started thinking of someone new

well its okay, they always do.

maybe im only holding me down
(are you playing me?)
cut the ribbon and float away
(like a record you won’t keep.)
maybe you’re only holding me back
(are you buying time?)
i’ll cut you off so you can stay
(just to waste the rest of mine.)

maybe im only holding me down
(do i overthink)
cut the ribbon and float away
(all the motions, everything)

maybe you’re only holding me back
(moving forward now)
i’ll cut you off so you can stay
(but only inches at a time)

cause I could never call you mine.
(i’ll cut you off and call you mine.)

intuition

lyrics:

sitting here, i got my back against the wall while i say
“why i dont i have somebody?”

If i did, i’d take his photo and i’d put it on my door
and he would see how much he means
to me

when he’s over we would look up at the ceiling and pretend
that the sky was up
above our heads

im a loner thats intended to be lonely all the time
but i can’t be alone when im
left to my mind

the other side of my blue bed is looking blue
without a soul
to occupy the empty space

i’ll admit i wanted this but in there are moments i still wish
i had a person in my way

perfect strangers perfect lovers, turn me green and make me sad
it isnt better when you hold your own hands

its a danger its pathetic, there i said it cant you see
loveless letters i can’t kiss with a stamp...
