Make the right decision
when you're sixteen
it's too late to think it out now
Pull yourself together
early twenties
you should have it figured out now
Is it permanently binding?
Chase the trail until you're underground
Happiness that you had never found
If you feel an itch, don't you think that you should scratch it?
Keep your ears perked out, listen closely to the sound
Understand yourself, drive yourself to something that you'll love
you'll love, you'll love
Weigh out all your options on your own time
as the clock is counting down now
Last-minute decision swallows your life
struggle while you choke it down now
Can you turn back and reverse it?
Chase the trail until you're underground
Happiness that you had never found and will not now
If you feel an itch, don't you think that you should scratch it?
Keep your ears perked out, listen closely to the sound
Understand yourself, drive yourself to something that you'll love
you'll love, you'll love
Doin' what you wanna do,
what you love and staying true
Understand yourself, drive yourself to something that you'll love,
you'll love, you'll love

Shelter

I wish that you could say that we're forever
When I lay by your side, i'm put together
Do you feel the same way as I do?
My cards are on the table, just pick and choose
I can give you comfort until we fade
Heal when you are hurting, what do you say?
I love when you pull me in and hold me tight
and when I kiss your forehead, I feel alive
Do you want these moments every day?
I feel at home around you, so warm and safe
I can give you comfort until we fade
Heal when you are hurting, what do you say?
I think of life without you and it's not the same
I love the little shelter that we have made

Watch my friends becoming alcoholics
It's a touchy subject, I don't talk about it often
Remember when you told me you were naked
and somebody tried to touch you
You were too afraid to stop them
I'll never forget that
I wish I had the strength I did back then
to reach out for their hands
If only I had the strength I did back then
to reach out for their hands
Break ups bleeding out into divorces
You used to share a bed, but now you're sleeping on my couch, yeah
Remember when you passed out on the pavement
Those deafening, awful sirens
You couldn't afford the rehab
I'll never forget that
I wish I had the strength I did back then
to reach out for their hands
If only I had the strength I did back then
to reach out for their hands
It's so different now, each and every day
Try to come around, don't make another mistake
Something's got to give, I'll be on my way
God, so much has changed

A friend once said,
"healing isn't linear,"
she sang it in a song
that we recorded in my basement.
And down the street
we played soccer all night long
I played the girls a song
while we sat down on the railroad tracks
All these thoughts in my dreams tonight
You popped your tire
neighbors put a new one on
we rehearsed some songs
I forgot to say you wrote well
And on the couch
told dad what was going on
wrote it in my songs,
too afraid to let him in
All these thoughts in my dreams tonight
The LED lights shine over my futon
while I write my songs
and record them in my basement.
I'll feel let down
if I don't put this album out
share these messy songs
I hope that someone will listen.

Note to Self

Dig a little deeper
find out what you're feeling
anger isn't healing
neither is being alone
Just take your time and trust your breathing
It's better than you're thinking
help yourself for once
Let it sink in
process the moments that you're driving through your head
It's over but it's not the end of the world
and it may get much harder
but you'll end up getting that much closer to the peace that you have made
Don’t rush yourself
‘Cause it’ll only disappoint
It’ll take
All your strength
To try and filter out the noise
AHHH (x2)
And the pain will only make you stronger
So your suffering will feel much smaller
From the peace that you have made

Had a spiritual awakening
Wandering down the halls
Listening to Jay Som
Thinking of dysphoria
Cried with my friends
Thought this was the end of the good times
And then I laugh
I’m never getting younger
You know that feeling
When it hits you all at once?
It’s hard for me to focus
I didn’t take my medication
Breathe…
You know that everything will work out in the end
Don’t blink or else you’ll miss it
Breathe…
Just take it one step at a time
Just take it one step at a time
They kissed my neck
It felt like I was floating
I feel like I am growing
Into someone I can love
The doctor said
I need to take care of myself
I never listened
But now it’s always on my mind
A better head awaits if I just
Listen to myself
And buckle in
I promise all the weight will feel a thousand miles away if I just
Listen to myself, I know that’s hard for me to do, but I’ll just
Breathe…

Square One

I tried to pretend it didn’t hurt
But suddenly anger came over me
Years of progress washed away
And old habits violently choking me
It’s not what I expected
But it’s also no surprise
What happened five years ago
Starts again like a reprise
Do I have to fight again?
This is going nowhere
Making all the same mistakes
Let you under my skin
Trying hard to move on
It’s never easy
Shutting curtains
One step forward
Ten steps back to you
I’m pushing it down
No matter the cost
I can’t deal with this anymore
If I was meant to be okay
I’d be there now
I don’t wanna fight again
It just leads me nowhere
Making all the same mistakes
‘Cause it’s just routine by now
Trying hard to move on
It’s never easy
Shutting curtains
One step forward
Ten steps back to bed

The Girls

Chewing bubblegum cigarettes
Never thought I’d make it to your room
Always fought me just for kicks
But I always went home way too soon
Had to feel like I
Was one of the girls
It’s so obvious
To me now
Shooting rabbids on the screen
While your cherry lip gloss caught my eyes
It was never meant for me
But the thought had never left my mind
Wanted to feel like I
Was one of the girls
It’s so obvious
To me now
Did you notice anything?
Did it ever cross your mind?
Was it painted on my face?
Or did it click with you in hindsight?
Needed to feel like I
Was one of the girls
It’s so obvious
To me now
I should have known
Somewhere deep inside
That I was one of the girls

(my agenda)

A few good million want me dead
They haven’t met me yet
What a shame
I guess my love is just too powerful
The restaurant I went to
With my makeup on
Made a man so angry
That he walked out without paying
I see everything
That you think
And that’s okay
I never did this mess to please your heart
I’ll be on my way
A polarized reaction
From my college mates
Thinking to themselves
“Who’s this man with a painted face?”
I criticize my family
For ignoring that
Elemental fact
Of my existence that is part of me
I see everything
That you think
And that’s okay
I never did this mess to please your heart
I’ll be on my way

something tells me that i’m searching
for an enemy of one
beneath the setting sun i’m shaking
in a desert in Antarctica
surely there’s an explanation
why i stand alone
i’m burdened with these expectations
so i try to be a rolling stone
Isn’t there another option
That I should’ve found by now
I struggle just to trust my instincts
I’m burning it all to the ground
Pack it up
I’m seething from the
Choices that I’ve made
I never wanna be around another
Person that’ll dig into me
Tell me who’s to blame
Tell me who’s to blame
It all feels the same
Travel through the conversations
I wish I never had
Narrow down the options till
There’s no one and no going back
Wish I never offered to help
The problem’s now my own
I can’t believe I fell for this
When I knew that it’d get overgrown
Pack it up
I’m seething from the
Choices that I’ve made
I never wanna be around another
Person that’ll dig into me
Tell me who’s to blame
Tell me who’s to blame
It all feels the same
If you just listened to me

Before I Rise
03:05
|

I change every single day
I rearrange myself for no-one
Just my own dismay
I waste my breath trying to say
Words that don’t mean a lot to no-one
Barely much to me
There is no-one
That can handle me
And when I wake, I don’t open up my eyes
I just wanna hear the noise around me
I wait till peace has found me,
Right before I rise
Right before I rise
I hate most of what I am
I chain myself so that there’s no one
Caught up in my mess
I don’t know most of the time
I treat my mind like I have no-one
That holds me to their chest
If there’s no-one
No-one
And when I wake, I don’t open up my eyes
I just wanna hear the noise around me
I wait til peace has found me,
Right before I rise
I hear a voice that has chased me all my life
And I think that it’s finally found me
The emptiness around me
Fades before my eyes
Maybe I am fine
Maybe I am fine

Go Figure

What's my plan for the next four years?
Have I gotten there yet?
Will this be my new career
or is that too much of a bet?
Everybody's gone away
but they left behind their pain
I will carry it for them
while I figure out myself
Is the future gonna be alright?
Have I won the game
or will new problems introduce themselves?
Will they feel the same?
Everybody's gone away
but they left behind their pain
I will carry it for them
while I figure out myself
