Try to be a man of my word
I've got venom to spit
I don’t know if I’ll smile again
My teeth are rotting from keeping it
Cos I’m sick from the twists and the ties at the back of my mouth
And I’m sick of the rot from keeping
Keeping it down
I’ve had enough I’m worn down to nothing
Cos I’m numb all over from never touching
I try to be a man of my word
But I've got venom to spit
I don’t know if I’ll smile again
My teeth are rotting from keeping it
My lips they tremble
My hands keep shaking
I can't quite keep a hold of myself
Haven’t tasted anything in weeks
Dark circles under my eyes
Cos I don’t deserve sleep
I’ve been pacing
A chorus as the floorboards creak
My tongue will melt away in time
I don’t deserve sleep

Martyr
03:33

I left you fortunate
I left filled with regret
Spent beings
Two beings spent
Faithfully held
With their faith fully held
Now we are post lies
Now we are just strangers in rooms
Uncomfortable otherwise
Now things are better this way I assume
Now that we have both gone through
The changing tides the change of view
Now that we both have the proof
Just let it go and I’ll leave you
To find peace in your mind
If you had it once it can come again
I’ll find mine in good time
But for now I know I can just pretend
I don’t want to be
Just a fond memory
That’s the narcissist in me
Maybe you could find happiness
In that I am a monster
You can finally be happy and I get to leave a martyr

When I last saw you I said I loved you
You didn’t say I love you too
But still I left and now you’re gone and
I never should have left the room
With the sunset the new dawn is born
As I stare to sea I look to hope not mourn
You know you don't have to go
All these things I wish you had known
And I know that this anger will stay
I just can’t figure out what to say
Tell your friends you love them
You never
You never know
Struggling to live on memories
Now tainted with grief
Lamenting the fact I won’t hear you speak
I can see you there I was trying
But never realised you were standing there crying
How could we have known you were so alone
You fate moved on

Blossom
03:19

I am permanently cast
beneath the monument I've built surrounding you
I am nestled in my past
Shrouded in my handmade gloom
I am the proof
I hate the truth
That I hate the truth
It’s killing me I can’t let it go
Watching you blossom while I can’t even grow
Broken and consumed
I will never bloom
I want to blossom somewhere I fit
It's kind of hard for me to picture it
I am the proof
I hate the truth
It’s killing me I can’t let it go
Watching you blossom while I can’t even grow

Hate Me
03:30
|
|||
|
Head first and over the hill into a lineup deeper than what I can see
I wrapped myself up and over the lives of the headlights in front of me
I hate myself more than you could ever
hate me
I wish I could scrub clean the stain of me from all of history
They’ve already paved over the road where our blood used to be
I hate myself more than you could ever hate me
I want to be reaped and sown to seed
To make amends for all that is me
Grind me down to dust
Throw me away on the soonest sou-easterly

Emotional Hygiene

Hey I know it’s 3:15 and I should be asleep
I really hope your phone’s not set to beep
Just quietly I cannot forget
Always wake in the same puddle of sweat
Make sure you’re up early
for the sunrise
At this stage I’ll try anything
for a dopamine supply
It’s only chemical I can’t be accountable
Hey I know it’s 3:15 and I should be asleep
Awakened as the guilt starts to creep
Mind your emotional hygiene
Keep yourself clean
I need to spend less time looking at screens
At least I’m up early
for the sunrise
I should try anything
for the serotonin supply
It’s only chemical I can’t be accountable
