Lyrics:
I wanna be your THC
breathe me into your body
in your arms I taste the sweetness of love
but the aftertaste ruins my tastebuds

I want you to feel the autumn colors in your veins
You want to drink the spring showers 'til they dry away
Floating down the river on words you built for me 
We are passionate together but all i feel are

February Clouds on your face
Separate by a million miles when you turn away
I can pick these petals off the ground for you
I can put out all these candles if your want me to

Let me in under your skin
Expel all the secrets you try to keep in
push me under your fingernails
reading the bumps on my back like it's Braille

I want you to feel the autumn colors in your veins
You want to drink the spring showers 'til they dry away
Floating down the river on words you built for me 
We are passionate together but all i feel are

February Clouds on your face
Separate by a million miles when you turn away
I can pick these petals off the ground for you
I can put out all these candles if your want me to
2x

February Clouds

This is about a story I overheard on the bus ride home from campus.
Check out @llamawav if you haven't already!

Lyrics:
You got your Pepé Le Pew
He's always following you
You met him on Tinder but he's way too into you
now you don't know what to do

You want him to go
but he's throwing words on your phone
Your friends think he's a creep 
and you want him to leave 
but he won't leave you alone

Why he's still around you don't know
On the 201 on the way home
Press your chest into your cell phone
I think it's time you let go

You got your Pepé Le Pew
He's constantly messaging your
With every word
It slowly grows worse
Now you don't what to do

He knows you harassed
Every word's an attack
he says "I know 
you've always got your phone
so you better fucking text me back"

Pretend you don't mind it
Trying to hide it
condensation on your eyelids
but you're worried about violence
now you're crying face down in the sheets so it's silent
Now you start lyin'
Saying you're fine
and keeping your friends out of your mind
you're trying to hide
all the emotions inside

Why he's still around you don't know
On the 201 on the way home
Press your chest into your cell phone
I think it's time you let go

Put down the phone and put on your opticals 
Focus the obstacle
know your own worth

No preocupes  cosas que dice 
Choose carefully, who you are meeting

You know that hes coming 
Your phone wont stop ringing
You hiding inside of your room
Thoughts of him walkin right in
Asking him
What i gotta do to get it thru you that i do not wanna talk
I dont wanna do a thing with you at all
I dont want you anywhere near me
My feelings not healing
Words that you said 
Torment my head
All of the things you that you said
Torment my head x2
I wish i could stop
All of these thoughts
But they keep coming back with the sound of my phone
forever leave you at that dial tone

Lyrics: 
I keep on putting tape over my own mouth
Anytime I try to let you into my brain it shuts down
I want to tell the truth
But my doubts cling to my belt loop
Anxiety crashes over me like a water balloon

*I flute*

Practice to myself all the words I’d like to release
Recite them in my head, my heartbeat rises with the heat
I’ve got blisters on my feet from wearing shoes that don’t belong to me
But I’m scared to take them off, they’re on so tight that my feet will bleed

It's fine for a while
But it seeps into your skin
The secrets that I hide
They're burning me alive
You're tearing me apart, the way you make me feel
You're tearing me apart, how good you make me feel
