Hadn’t I told you
If you'd stuck’d around
Either way, We'd see the light of day
You don't need me around

Heaven I asked you
If you’d come around
And instead you've kept me
Laughing on the ground

Sat by myself
Figuring I was in hell
Sat by myself
In this big empty house

Worth telling the story
All worth figuring out
Lookin' round I found the glory
For you and me,
Yet we feed the belief

That we're sitting by ourselves
Figuring we're in hell
Sitting by ourselves
In some big empty house

Could never stop changing
I'm only rearranging
And letting go of every single expectation 

House - Atosa

I heard the news today
Playing at sorry games
Been trying to regain my range in the rat race
How to pin a butterfly to a page
I sit with the silence, babe
Come when your mind's the same

I'm undone
No More Hollow Days

I don't search the pavement
For pennies to save, I'm meant
For more than heads up or tail ends
Dunno where my mind went
I kept it quiet, but

I'm undone
No More Hollow Days


No More Hollow Days - Atosa

lyrics:
fear won't call my name again
I think that emotion's good and dead
at least I hope, I can't condone no more
subliminal messaging

we need love more than we ever did
you and I been running a deficit
I was built to hide it all inside and made
to empathize
your pain is mine but
take from me what you'd like

and go cause your harm
I wanna shield you from it all
go cause your harm
I wanna heal you from it
from it all

fear won't call my name again I 
think that compulsion's wearing thin
the least I can hope for is someone new
who'll finally understand
find the light and let it in, if you can
find a way to begin
I'll be counting all my sins
learning to feed myself a lie
but take from me what you'd like

and go cause your harm

Cause Your Harm - Atosa

i didn't want to do this

lyrics:
I no longer aim for perfect
But I like it when you pressure me
Tells me that I am worth it
That I deserve this
Isn’t that news to me

Like a hand on the small of my back
I’ll take it in stride like any other man
Cause that’s all you and I am
With intent to do it my way
If I’m uninvited I’ll take it with confidence
For the millionth time

Mind over matter
Mind over mind
I’ll re-write the patterns
All in good time
Go climb a ladder
Put yours over mine
I’ll just find the magic in my line of sight

Feed me
You best believe me
Or please leave me alone
With this hunger in my gut
It’s eating up my soul
Back to the rascal that I used to be
Knowing the notion
Was plastered on the walls
Inside of me

mind over mind (anxiety exercise #1)

Don’t you wanna thrive on another planet
Wasting all day on a white caribbean isle
Without you beside
It’d only be half of what I’d imagined
I'll swallow my pride aiming love at the finish line

Don’t you ever pray for better days
Honey I’ll  save you my best for whenever
There’s no other way but to make mistakes
And just try
Learn the lesson
This is could be heaven

Why did we magnetise - 
What is your intention ?
I need to survive, yeah
at whatever cost

I might have lost it back there
It’s lying somewhere in a ditch
Life can truly be a bitch
Even when you try

Don’t you ever pray
For better days
Honey I’ve saved you my best for whenever
There’s no other way but to make mistakes
And just try
Learn the lesson
This is could be heaven

white caribbean (anxiety exercise #2)

Lyrics:

You wanna hide it
So you call me up when you’re down and out
cause i’ll keep this on silent
just enough to heed your mess 			
While you might admire
my open heart where I weigh your lies
and then sleep beside them
beside them

Please
stick to the songs
stick to the songs ones that we've
heard before
and take it
take it away
I wanna stay
Comfortable (X2)

I am never penitent
I’ll stick with my ambition
And I keep a choir rolling in my mind like a tv station
And in your wake I might bleed
But still I say to me
Just take the time to be what you seek
Maybe that's setting you free

Comfortable - Atosa

here comes the pain
to weasel its way
back in our hearts and minds
i won't
be led astray
or let it get close to me
to beckon/blacken my heart and mind

No More - Atosa

why ?

a very fucking old song

Lyrics:

Did you take me back to the lightness
Were you here to make me right again?
Because we both had the time

Or did we see with the same eye
I should know
You’re a good liar
You do it to survive

You said do me a favor
Let me break you
Cause fuck your pride
I'm not gonna be your vitamin
You musta lost half your mind
To the love that I never wanted
But never could set aside, yeah

Knowing you is an ache, babe
That'll never never never go away

I wanna step to your face one day
But I can’t aim
And the mirror might break
And take it all away

Did you take me back to
All that I'd repressed?
Places that I thought I knew but never did
'Til we got undressed
And the car door was open
Are they busy smoking?
Would you pop your head up to check
Nah, let’s just keep going

It’s never time to ask
So thinking back I have to laugh
It’s truly comical
How I get played like a fool

And now it all makes sense,
Another lifetime passed
I was hanging on hoping you’d be my last

Knowing you is an ache, babe
That'll never never never go away

I wanna step to your face one day
But I can’t aim
And the mirror might break
And take it all away
