Lyrics:

What are you gonna do without me babe?
I've been so worried, so afraid for you,
are gonna do on your own babe.
You've forgotten how to live without me. 

Always on my shoulders, always on my mind.
Never getting closer, only further behind.

Seems so self absorbed, 
to do what's best for you with no other f***ing thought,
but that's what you gotta do.
Boo boo will be fine, he's got the rest of his life,
and you've got shit to do. 

What are you gonna do without me babe?
I've been so worried, so afraid for you,
are gonna do on your own babe.
You've forgotten how to live without me. 

Always on my shoulders, always on my mind.
Never getting closer, only further behind.
Always on my shoulders, always on my mind.
Never getting closer, only further behind.

Without Me 

Is it really there?
Is it really real?
Nothing much has changed.
Do you ever feel it?
You are a star.
You are an icon.
No one can shine quite as brightly as you.
I just wanna tell you how much I love you, listen.

And all I wanted to be
was the friend you needed
just as much as I needed you,
can't you see

I found a hole in my heart
and it's growing each day
some days I ignore it 
and others it gives me pain
but I keep it safe
it means people look out for me
but it makes me cry
and feel so numb inside 
gotta fill it with things to get by
gotta fill it with things to get by

For the longest ever time
I've been thinking that I'm so fine
I can cope with shit 
cause it's me I'm alright, yeah
but now there's just no hiding 
I don't care if it's selfish
I don't care if you're hurting
cause look at me now I'm hurting
I just feel like a burden
and I can't hear my own voice
can't open my door 
without my brain straight up yelling that I'm useless
and that I don't deserve friends
these friends that would do anything to help me 'round the bends
but where's the fun gone?
I don't see her anymore
she left the chat before summer 
now I'm lonely and crying on the floor.

I found a hole in my heart
and it's growing each day
some days I ignore it 
and others it gives me pain
but I keep it safe
it means people look out for me
but it makes me cry
and feel so numb inside 
gotta fill it with things to get by
gotta fill it with things to get by

I found a hole in my heart
and it's growing each day
some days I ignore it 
and others it gives me pain
but I keep it safe
it means people look out for me
but it makes me cry
and feel so numb inside 
gotta fill it with things to get by
fill it with all these things.

Aftermath

Originally titled "Mosquito Blood Bath". this tells the familiar tale of a holiday near a body of water. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it!
