To the heart that resonates with mine
I guess I've just
Romantisized my heartbreak
I can't look you in the eyes l now
Unless I get my mind straight
And now I don't know what to think
I feel like I am on a brink of some-thing-per-fect
You won't stay here and I know it's worth it
Days are blur-ing in just like the fa-ces
I can't keep on switching pla-ces
I know the shoe won't fit take my perspective
Brag on bout locking this one down for certain
It's not 'bout no one new come on let's face it
The mask is slipping just a matter of time
No one...
Romantisized my heartbreak

Days are blur-ing in just like the fa-ces

Swipe
I did again
I did again
What did I gain
WHHAAA- swipe :)
Here I am and it's ten fifty five at night I'm swiping again at them dating apps mrrraaagh
I don't really know what I stand to gain again I'm faced with this argument
(Like do you ever read the room or your emotions?)
I have no self control when it comes to being alone I don't
mhm..
(And repetition doesn't drive you crazy?)
Awh man, I'm glad now that you asked it's been the 4th month back to back with this
(With what?)
Whit this!
(What's that?) ...

No refund
Verse 1
I wanted my money back but they did refuse
stating that I could not enter without shoes
No refund, no refund they did cry
can't allow this social slight to fly.
I'm leaving the bad reviews
you bastards are gonna lose
Chorus
I need a manager pronto
No I'm not your friend Tonto
run along and fetch your leader
I need to bleed her
dry until I get it back
no refund indeed, karen strikes back
Verse 2
Don't think I'm the baddie
just never got attention from my daddy
so now I...

Crazy
Inside Roare
"Crazy"
The next morning your pillow is cold.
Next night I can't feel your palm
The next day won't change anything.
Another dumb face in the mirror,
what screams
you don't hear it
/: I'm going crazy, I can feel the blood beating in my veins.
I'm crazy, night by day and day by night.
I'm crazy, no one can hear my roar.
I'm crazy, what about you, how do you feel. :/
Next day, coffee sweetened.
Another night, here I am alone again.
Next, how to go to the doctor.
Next, how...

Untitled Rap
busting in your ear drums
busting in your ear drums
hits harder than the drugs
screams louder than your guns
busting in those windows
busting in your ear drums
feel okay today, might be an individual
the end is nigh and the past perpetual
put it to you now; there's no fucking schedule
learn to swim or drown in the baby pool
cut the cord and watch them squirm
bitching you did nothing for them
twitching like a half-assed worm
can't trust none as far as i can throw 'em
"all the best people..." are...
busting in your ear drums
hits harder than the drugs
screams louder than your guns
busting in those windows
busting in your ear drums
feel okay today, might be an individual
the end is nigh and the past perpetual

Blue
Almost home now
it don't let up
stomping mudpuddles downtown
with my favorite
Jean jacket on
Whats the point if I'm not
gonna end up with an arms length of
hope?
Right or wrong
lost in a fog and I'm choking back smoke
and all my best friends are gone
I'm speaking gibberish
Inside jokes just rotting
away in a mucky bog
I'm still swimming along and
I'm falling in
Almost home now
we ain't chill though
I'm choking back a croak
in the loneliest swamp
and it's so...
it don't let up
stomping mudpuddles downtown
with my favorite
Jean jacket on
Whats the point if I'm not
gonna end up with an arms length of
hope?
Right or wrong
lost in a fog and I'm choking back smoke
and all my best friends are gone
I'm speaking gibberish
Inside jokes just rotting
away in a mucky bog
I'm still swimming along and
I'm falling in
Almost home now
we ain't chill though
I'm choking back a croak
in the loneliest swamp
and it's so...

Till We Meet Again
I ran into
An old friend Whom
I'd never met before,
But somehow, I knew everything about Him
Although, He
Didn't know me,
So I turned around and went the other way,
And we never did speak again
But I saw Him again,
A little earlier that day,
But He didn't see me,
So I looked away
But He saw through my eyes,
Through my every memory,
A stranger's life,
A passerby
A passerby
A passerby
God!
What do I do
With my time here?
(I haven't got a clue)
Good God! ...

The coldest season
Verse 1
I broke the walls...
I broke the walls..
enter into my mind's halls...
the end is nigh
I say with a gleeful sigh
goodnight kids, time to say goodbye
Chorus
The wind, cold, sweet, and alone
is my only guide back home.
Frozen blood in my veins
suffering through these growing pains.
The coldest season
dying for no reason
this feels like...treason...
Verse 2
Step inside and see the displays
nevermind the mess, it always stays
no matter what we do,
and let's not...
I broke the walls...
I broke the walls..
enter into my mind's halls...
the end is nigh
I say with a gleeful sigh
goodnight kids, time to say goodbye
Chorus
The wind, cold, sweet, and alone
is my only guide back home.
Frozen blood in my veins
suffering through these growing pains.
The coldest season
dying for no reason
this feels like...treason...

Hearts in the Sand (song)
Sunlight on the harbour
sparkles like mischievous eyes
Laughter of seagulls
Questions float on wind and tide
The trees where we used to walk together
They miss your footsteps now
Life comes in waves, they just keep coming
We don’t get to ride them all
Lifetimes wash away like hearts in the sand
You’re living in my memory
It’s gonna be alright
Lifetimes wash away like hearts in the sand
You’re living in my memory
I’m gonna be alright
The tides went on and on before us
The tides go on and...
sparkles like mischievous eyes
Laughter of seagulls
Questions float on wind and tide
The trees where we used to walk together
They miss your footsteps now
Life comes in waves, they just keep coming
We don’t get to ride them all
Lifetimes wash away like hearts in the sand
You’re living in my memory
It’s gonna be alright
Lifetimes wash away like hearts in the sand
You’re living in my memory
I’m gonna be alright
The tides went on and on before us
The tides go on and...

Satan was hot before it was cool
Verse 1
Imagine with me if you will,
rebelling against the king of the hill
getting all your friends cast out
forced to wander about
always the bad guy in the story,
all you wanted was a piece of the glory.
Madness consumed you, greedy you became
and now the whole world slanders your name
Chorus
It's hard being hot, hot, hot
but my friend it's what you got, got, got
falling far from grace
without a single chance to save face
it must be so hard trying to rule
being hot before it was cool
Verse 2

Raining Dust
Verse 1
Quick, grab an umbrella
it's time to die fella
can't you see? It's raining dust
no one left to trust
shadows burned into the wall
waiting on the last bomb to fall
Chorus
Dust falling on the playground
burying the youth without a sound
killing to prove a point
no time to waste, just roll another joint
Verse 2
Are those airplanes I hear?
Is that the shadow of death drawing near?
Does it even matter to you?
Tell me Mr. Senator, are you okay?
I'm sure your...

We appear to be high
Verse 1
We three, as the pieces come to be
all broken mirrors that reflect past lives
tongues becoming sharper than knives
holding each other together in this crazy life
knowing somehow we made it right
Chorus
We appear to be high
but we all know that's a lie
this is your captain speaking
the boat appears to be leaking
falling down, but that's okay
we still have each other for one more day
Verse 2
Laughing over my dumb jokes
watching our eyes grow red from campfire smoke
we feel...
