Three Plans 02:46
I got three plans, balanced in my head, I’m gonna go to brooklyn, find a way to get up in that poet woman’s arms, oh wouldn’t it be a charm I got three plans, crumpled in my hands, I’m gonna drive back west, pick up my best friend who’s hanging out there all alone, I tell myself he wants to come home Who am I to blame? For wanting many things I got three plans, coming down to circumstance, gonna give up my chances, find a way to disappear give up my taste for love and romance, and it’ll all be clear But who am I to blame? for wanting different things?
3.
Lookin at my life now, trying to see if it is better than the other ones caught up in the strife of, endless comparison, it gets embarrassing pleasing the other ones Looking at my looking at my owwwwn, looking at mine Keeping it in mind now, that there’s a chance that it gets better than its been before caught between a tight spot, and an ocean of what’s to be in store Looking at my looking at my owwwwn, looking at mine Whatever you had in mind is only barely enough, i will need someone around who understands my love whatever chances you take, the procession is endless, maybe thats why i enjoy the sensation of drowning I need to embody, the part of my spirit which exhales in acceptance of of the things I love you need to remember, the part of us always, which comes back around to be understood

I Want U 03:39
i want you to stay here i want you to roam i never told you, not to strike out on your own i want you to love me i want you to try i need you to lend me all your trust just for a while this is the part where you come crashing down i want you to keep me i want you to give i’ve come to speak for myself first thats how it is this is the part where I come crashing down
5.
I only saw you in the morning, bright, brief and overwhelming I couldn’t keep you, and I’m counting every secret and doubt about it no doubt about it What are you offering this time? Head underwater, I don’t mind You only saw me in the distance, head hanging and careless If you ever met my gaze, you’d witness a little fire burning therein it keeps on burning So what do you do with your time? I don’t even know you and that’s just fine Maybe you’d want some of mine Calibrate my unchecked mind I only see myself in mirrors, in photos, surfaces and others I don’t really think about it often it sets a promise with the omens all around me Please don’t ever hesitate to let me know, I’m here in case you’re Ever thinking to yourself you’d like to love somebody else
6.
A Tension 00:44
I thought I was finished, thought I was done thought I had dragged my own name through the mud enough but its never enough, it’s only in the act of reclamation we come undone
7.
baby, you’re just what I needed strangely, caught up in your light lately, it feels like Im dreaming all through some endless night I hope you will survive me and my destructive tendencies, I know we could get along fine but every honest person needs someone to come around, when things are down and out write me, a part in your story staying, or just passing by maybe you’ve got some luck for me baby, simply see how I try I do see the best in you and you’ve got those reasons to believe we could get somewhere just fine but every honest person needs no one to hold them back when things are right on track I was searching for redemption all I found was, lost attention what am I doing here but learning every year I know I can get along just fine but every honest person needs someone to lend a hand and firmly stand right by them

Ash And Coal 02:57
I’ve been through so much can’t seem to get my thoughts to line up the slumps and the drugs theres a dream underneath but I’m close to giving up i’m a loser and an asshole liar and a nobody feeling all ash and coal I don’t know why I left you I don’t know if it was the right thing to do I just went with my gut so that it would be fair and cease to hurt in the long run I’m just crazy and I’m lost I'm alone because I chose to be bleeding out ash and coal I must not go to you I cannot tell you how I feel I will not bother you I understand the deals I made locked and sealed I’m a fake and a user hanging on to somebody choking on ash and coal just for now
9.
adderall and cigarettes, i’m gonna get up on a level yet alcohol and mary jane i’m comin down because i feel insane my eyes are on fire my stomach is turning the coals in my heart by you are kept burning the poetic discomfort which we all experience following a falling out which leaves us delirious breakfast in the afternoon im gonna get up just to see the moon wide awake at 4 am everything's flipped around on me again my mind is a sink and my body the floor the leaking of my thoughts floods under the door the pathetic disgrace when you see I am serious wallowing in fear because hope is mysterious to me gratitude to rest my head although it’s difficult to get in bed cataloguing when I wake it reminds me of the time that it takes
10.
Misery, misery, finding me’s always misery misery, misery, misery to the highest degree Once I fell into my sweetest fever dream, ever green I’m lost at sea and wide awake, sanity at stake Misery, misery, finding me’s been pure misery misery, misery, misery to the highest degree Clarity, why do you abide in elusivity? I’m fast a asleep and listening close, pinning heart to home Make way for the royalty of self-effacing mockery oh why do we have to bring ourselves down? What is there to quantify, about being embodied? a gift to sense and to come to some as well I’m indebted to your pure honest can’t you see, leading me from misery, misery, and building me to a higher degree misery, misery, and building me to the highest degree
11.
When I lose you, I will abuse myself Cause the rules say, that you can have anybody else What is this disappointment that’s been weighing on me? What is this sudden part of myself winning out over me? I’m only buying in for a minute I didn’t choose you, it happened all the same If only I knew, the details of your pain What is this disappointment that’s been weighing on me? What is this stubborn part of myself, winning out over me? I’m only buying in for a minute Baby now you cannot keep me to yourself When the fire dies, I will run in the dark Cause my eyes, been open from the start
