I’ve been spending all my time up in LA
I took my face off and I thought it would be okay

When it thought I left the madness
I kept seeing my door open
I would never leave you here
I love this place too much to care 

We have all been left in the closet where we keep hold
Of our memories before we even grow too old
Our faces lit up like the fire we burned houses with
I couldn’t tell you where we’re going next

I couldn’t keep my heart in place for a couple of weeks
Maybe I wasn’t going mad and I was growing weak

When it thought I left the madness
I kept seeing my door open
I would never leave you here
I love this place too much to care 

We have all been left in the closet where we keep hold
Of our memories before we even grow too old
Our faces lit up like the fire we burned houses with
I couldn’t tell you where we’re going next

We’ve found a Brain Teaser
We’ve found a soul eater
We’ve found a thing that doesn’t think we’ll ever grow weaker 

We’ve found a Brain Teaser
We’ve found a soul eater
We’ve found a thing that doesn’t think we’ll ever grow weaker 

We’ve found a Brain Teaser
We’ve found a soul eater
We’ve found a thing that doesn’t think we’ll ever grow weaker 

We’ve found a Brain Teaser
We’ve found a soul eater
We’ve found a thing that doesn’t think 
No 

We have all been left in the closet where we keep hold
Of our memories before we even grow too old
Our faces lit up like the fire we burned houses with
I couldn’t tell you where we’re going next

Brain Teaser

More Than Music (Interlude)

I’m trying to get better with you
Cause I don’t see any opportunities brand new
I gotta rehearse 5 or 6 times when I duck
But I still got a fucking flow that's stable enough  

I live too many crazy lives at once
Even though every one of them helps me a lot
I try to get rid of every single thought that I own
Cause when I come back here I won’t be alone

We can kill the grief
Or we can change it
No more life to see
Or to be safe with
We can kill the grief
Or we can change it

I wanna make another flow
Because even if I change, you won’t even know
I see the dark parts in your soul with no eyes
And everytime I have to take demons to guide 

When I leave, you should stay by the phone
Cause if I try to walk away, I won’t get back home
Now every towers crumbling all at once
You can try and fight, but leaving is a must

We can kill the grief
Or we can change it
No more life to see
Or to be safe with
We can kill the grief
Or we can change it

When do I have to go hide
Tell me in a silent room
If I get out will I die
Give me feeling or we’re doomed
I am clinging to life
Living in a box hotel
I don’t go to show and tell
Paid them money when I fell

I wanted to find a place to store my shit
I had to leave but you’re still digging it
You tried to keep me in this old room
But i don’t need anybody helping you

We can kill the grief
Or we can change it
No more life to see
Or to be safe with
We can kill the grief
Or we can change it

We can kill the grief
Or we can change it
No more life to see
Or to be safe with
We can kill the grief
Or we can change it

Dark Parts (GRIEF Reprise)

I'm gonna keep myself intact
I’m gonna keep my soul in hiding
I’m gonna rip my heart to bits
I’m gonna try and keep on fighting

I don’t need a life out here
I live on a stratosphere
Try and define my waking hours
As something that really matters

Tryna get you up
Tryna get you on my feet
I can’t leave you here
I won’t try to care
But if I did
You’d try to stop
I won’t try to stop
I won’t try cause

I'm gonna keep myself intact
I’m gonna keep my soul in hiding
I’m gonna rip my heart to bits
I’m gonna try and keep on fighting

I'm gonna keep myself intact
I’m gonna keep my soul in hiding
I’m gonna rip my heart to bits
I’m gonna try and keep on fighting

I don’t wanna get a home
Cause I’d have to answer the phone
Try and find out if my broken ladders
Are some things that really matter

This life is too long for comfort
But you’d say it is enough
Try and define my waking hours
As something that really matters

Tryna get you up
Tryna get you on my feet
I can’t leave you here
I won’t try to care
But if I did
You’d try to stop
I won’t try to stop
I won’t try cause

Tryna get you up
Tryna get you on my feet
I can’t leave you here
I won’t try to care
But if I did
You’d try to stop
I won’t try to stop
I won’t try cause

I'm gonna keep myself intact
I’m gonna keep my soul in hiding
I’m gonna rip my heart to bits
I’m gonna try and keep on fighting

I'm gonna keep myself intact
I’m gonna keep my soul in hiding
I’m gonna rip my heart to bits
I’m gonna try and keep on fighting

See, this life doesn’t matter to those in huge homes with two phones and a carpet that sweeps their feet, but somewhere down the isle there’s a line of shelves that have burning floors from people jumping off the edge. It doesn’t matter how much green you got under your skin, how many zeros you’ve got in your wallet, or how many people you’ve got on their knees begging for your forgiveness, you are a human being. It’s that some are less human than others.

Tryna get you up
Tryna get you on my feet
I can’t leave you here
I won’t try to care
But if I did
You’d try to stop
I won’t try to stop
I won’t try cause

Tryna get you up
Tryna get you on my feet
I can’t leave you here
I won’t try to care
But if I did
You’d try to stop
I won’t try to stop
I won’t try cause

I'm gonna keep myself intact
I’m gonna keep my soul in hiding
I’m gonna rip my heart to bits
I’m gonna try and keep on fighting

I'm gonna keep myself intact
I’m gonna keep my soul in hiding
I’m gonna rip my heart to bits
I’m gonna try and keep on fighting

Intact

Alone (Interlude)

I can’t keep this water under my bed
It stains the ground and overflows my head
I wish I worked better than a door
Although windows help me see much more
Looking for bloodshot eyes in a lotto
Feelings I don’t need too much 
Make my mind go out
Make my soul give out

I sat with a crossbone cross my head
Couldn’t shake the feeling I was dead
I live in a parking lot of shame
But looking for love never felt the same

Looking for bloodshot eyes in a lotto
Feelings I don’t need too much 
Make my mind go out
Make my soul give out

Looking for bloodshot eyes in a lotto
Feelings I don’t need too much 
Make my mind go out
Make my soul give out

Bloodshot

I left through the shadow tree
I knew they were waiting for me
Although I had red in my eyes
It vanished through my disguise

Don’t say I didn’t let him in
He left me there in the shit I was in
I was punching my fist through the door
And nobody left, they just wanted some more
And nobody left, they just wanted some more
And nobody left, they just wanted some more

I was punching my fist through the door
And nobody left, they just wanted some more

Shadow Tree

Secret Cold

Michigan, I’m outside

I wanted to jump back but no
Sitting in the corner thinking that’s enough
Nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough 
I wanted to get in but no
Waiting in the corner thinking you too soft
Nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough  

I wanted to jump back but no
Sitting in the corner thinking that’s enough
Nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough 
I wanted to get in but no
Waiting in the corner thinking you too soft
Nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough 

Leave it where you found it again
Door is open, locks undone and secrets fled 
Now we’re stuck in the parking lot getting shot, getting hot
Better not leave so we can see them being 
Two sided people, heads screwed off
Ego got chewed off
Get a load of this guy in his bed screaming
For a lifeboat, unaware that he’s dreaming
Don’t turn that god damn light off

Step away if you aint got no scars across your chest
At our best, a lot less skeletons hiding in our laundry
Get those thoughts off me
I can’t just give you everything, I aint a dictionary
Open doors scare me
They remind me of my fate
I don’t hate where I’m going but if it changes me I’m dead
I wanted to jump back but no
I don’t need no sleeping pills man, that’s enough
When I left, I thought I lost a memory
Nothing ever loses time off of me
Don’t try rough
Leave it soft
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough    

I wanted to jump back but no
Sitting in the corner thinking that’s enough
Nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough 
I wanted to get in but no
Waiting in the corner thinking you too soft
Nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough 

I wanted to jump back but no
Sitting in the corner thinking that’s enough
Nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough 
I wanted to get in but no
Waiting in the corner thinking you too soft
Nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
I ain’t tough
I ain’t rough 

Michigan, I’m outside

Parking Lot

I don’t write my darks too much
I might let them out into michigan
I don’t blacken pages about you
Don’t want to live again
And the time never seemed right to leave you
Even though I wasn’t the falling star
You caught me when I ran till
Love teared me apart

Couldn’t say
You made my days

I don’t leave out in the rain
It hurts my bleeding back
I don’t blacken pages about 
Feelings I don’t have

And the time never seemed right to leave you
Even though I wasn’t the falling star
You caught me when I ran till
Love teared me apart

Couldn’t say
You made my days

Don’t want a new game
I should've stayed at the start
I hurt my photo album more than you

Couldn’t say
You made my days
Take me away
Take me to stay

Couldn’t say
You made my days
Take me away
Take me to stay

In The Rain

I forgot to call today
But still the money rolls in like boulders on ice
But if the ice was thin, I’d be living in a dark unfortunate place
And though I make my life out to be a sunday mourning
Every mourning’s like a free country with a dome around the edges
Eyes with stabbed Ss take me in for a life change
But when my power completes the surface
They push me through the ground
Baby tryna get out before the roots grow through my back
And I have to live a life on the surface where I can’t grow
Oh, now I’m looking in this cave but my eyes are fucked
And I’m probably in New York
I can smell the air, that seems so plastic it seems fresh
When I die, I hope the gravestone is made of wood
That can be made into a legacy better than my own
And like an eagle or some shit, I fly from my surface and create a new light
And you start naming off the things I left behind
Until the list falls to your feet and hits the ground where I was buried
After the stabbed S guy used me up and drank my blood
But I still cease the pain
You know I still feel it like I feel nothing
Underground here in my final space
In which I grow to love
But I can’t love what I can’t own
Though I’ve tried to appreciate my own
I still need my own
My precious own

Keep your wristwatch on hold, my man
I need that shit back
Cause if I don’t know the time, I won’t make it to the gig on saturday
The gig that’ll only drain me of my creative power
But that’s still too deep
You still fight a dumb war
Where nobody wins, and you both die in the end
What a goddamn scam

So if I try to get out of this alive
People will tell me to be the one who doesn’t thrive
I’m stuck in this life
Undone from the world
If I leave you hanging you’ll tell people what you heard
And when I drop back to the start this will all be done
Cause once you look back in the queue 
You will see you’ve won
Being behind closet doors with open locks is hard
Cause if you want out, you’ve gotta go back to the start
Which I’ve been doing for the whole time that I’ve done this shit
I’m getting real impatient
I’m getting real impatient
I’m getting real goddamn impatient
Who’s got the key?
Or is it with me?
Either way, I’m staying here surrounded by bedsheets
That cover me, so If you do the laundry, you won’t find me

This is just a life hack
But I don’t see 3D imagery
Because I know love can’t die
I’ll try escape tomorrow
But I can’t escape the rhythm
I’ll still walk the journey in myself
Carrying a beach ball
I’m great, fine, okay
Looking in my dark parts
This is more than music
I feel I am intact
