Laundry List 04:10
It's not easy living on opposite coasts Feels like I've been writing to a ghost like we live in two different dimensions what if we lose this connection i'm beginning to lose grip on reality i wake up, stare at my phone all day, sleep, & repeat waiting to see you text me "hey baby" this might be considered crazy. I'm making a laundry list of all the things we want to do There's just never enough time in the day when I see you Keep telling myself, "don't say it so soon." Keep holding myself back from saying "I love you" I'll write it on a postcard, have it addressed and stamped maybe I'll forget to mail it when I hold it in my hand I like to hear you say "hey" through the phone Can't wait to hear you in person & feel less alone Sometimes it feels like we are running out of time Fighting not to forget your face, don't you forget mine Remembering the way you sound when you said "goodbye" That morning in Orlando on September 9th I'm making a laundry list of all the things we plan to do There's just never enough time in the day when I see you Keep telling myself, "don't say it so soon." Keep holding myself back from saying "I love you" Keep telling myself, "don't say it so soon." Keep telling myself, "don't say it so soon." Keep telling myself, "don't say it so soon." Keep telling myself, keep telling myself I'm making a laundry list of all the things we want to do There's just never enough time in the day when I see you Keep telling myself, "don't say it so soon." Keep holding myself back from saying "I love you"

I can't believe it's December again it feels like I have never left my bed. Been in the same spot for the past couple months or Maybe it's just stagnant in my head. All my friends are moving on And making something of themselves. While i'm always getting left behind I am wishing all of them well. I haven't been myself these days and my friends are all starting to notice. i've just been feeling so broken and my eyes are losing focus. Another night spent tossing and turning pacing around my house waiting until the morning. Til I have to go to work with these bags under my eyes i'll just put on some makeup and pretend i'm doing just fine. I haven't been myself these days and my friends are all starting to notice i've just been feeling so broken and my eyes are losing focus it used to be you that kept me safe from my own my own bad dreams and now there's no one to save me from all the monsters in my sleep. and now there's no one to save me from all the monsters in my sleep.

Don't Go Far 05:31
called out of work and hopped on a bus just to see you. sleep sitting up dream about taking off my shoes we don't go out or do anything crazy just lay in bed all day and listen to the tv *Don't want my heart to break Don't forget me when you wake I got lost in you, lost in the passion Never thought I could believe in magic But there you are Don't go far should we cook tonight or just order out? we only have 2 days to keep playing "house" cram in all the things we say we'd do If only i lived closer to you It's starting to get to me This distance between you and my sheets And the distance between my palm and your cheek *Don't want my heart to break Don't forget me when you wake I got lost in you, lost in the passion Never thought I could believe in magic But there you are Don't go far Can we just hold on to the moment we were finally alone Can we just hold on, never wanna let you go You fit so perfect into me like this was all just a dream *Don't want my heart to break Don't forget me when you wake I got lost in you, lost in the passion Never thought I could believe in magic But there you are Don't go far

Do you want to sleep next to me? Is it okay with you if I wear my jeans? Can I whisper in your ear while you dream? Cause you mean everything to me It seems that the closer that I get To letting you inside of my head I write a script of things I want to say Don't have the guts to stay So I'll stand here and I will pretend Stand in a puddle of things left unsaid I wish that I was able To tell you how I really feel But the truth is I'm a little unstable Can't measure up to you my angel It seems that the closer that I get To letting you inside of my head I write a script of things I want to say Don't have the guts to stay So I'll stand here and I will pretend Stand in a puddle of things left unsaid It seems that the closer that I get To getting you out of my head I write a script of things I wish I said That night we laid in your bed So I'll stand here and I will pretend Stand in a puddle of things left Stand in a puddle of things left Stand in a puddle of things left Stand in a puddle of things left unsaid.

I'm afraid I'll forget your voice Keep replaying the last thing you had said To burn it in my head I feel guilty I didn't stay with you I hate myself for not seeing you through I let go of your hand just as you slipped into I'm sorry that I didn't get there quick enough for you And I hate myself for it I wish I never let you go It's not my fault but I still should have known You promised everything would be alright Now all I can remember is you saying, "good night" I feel guilty I didn't stay with you I hate myself for not seeing you through I let go of your hand just as you slipped into the light I'm sorry that I didn't get there quick enough for you and I hate myself for it Don't you forget me I'll find you Don't you forget me I'll find you, I'll find you

In a sea of empty seats But none are reserved for me In a sea of lonely people And they're all reflections of me When will I stop feeling like I'm the only one When will I be touched by anyone When will someone answer when I call And when will I stop feeling so god damned small Driving fast through stand still traffic Crying when everyone else is laughing Tripping in the dark over nothing We all just want to be something When will I stop feeling like I'm the only one When will I be touched by anyone When will someone answer when I call And when will I stop feeling so god damned small I want to be loved I want to be touched I want to be held I want to get fucked I want to be cared for I want to feel alive I want to be seen I want to be alright When will I stop feeling like I'm the only one When will I be touched by anyone When will someone answer when I call And when will I stop feeling so god damned small

Closure 03:17
i'm not even lonely because i'm alone i'm lonely because I've lost every love i've ever known and I don't know how on earth I can rebuild when the only foundation has been killed if I throw away my phone will that start me over? If I move far away will that give me closure? I wish I could go back in time & prevent my existence so lives won't be ruined with my assistance. how many "sorrys" do we get in a lifetime? haven't felt this bad in a long time how many times can we find love here? will the timer reset if I disappear? will the timer reset if I disappear? i'm not even lonely because i'm alone i'm lonely because I've lost every love i've ever known (how many sorry's do we get in a lifetime haven't felt this bad in a long time..) and I don't know how on earth I can rebuild when the only foundation has been killed this loneliness makes life feel long (how many times can we find love here?) is this where I truly belong (will the timer reset if I disappear?) this loneliness makes life feel long (will the timer reset if I disappear?) is this where I truly belong

Boardwalk 03:39
It was the middle of winter, my favorite season I love the way you look in sweaters: the best reason I miss your poor insulation we would always freeze in. Remember that day we tried to check off every cliche? It was a game we made we'd like to play And re write the way you feel about Christmas Day. I hope you still have that boardwalk prize we won From the game you race with water guns We didn't compete against anyone It always feels like we're the only ones. You say you always feel like we're never really finished I'd disagree if you didn't always get me spinning. Every time you come back I fall in love again in minutes. Your friends convince you I do more harm than good You choose not to believe them even though you could Some days I think they're right and you should Other days I want you to know I'd stay if you would. Do you remember that day at the boardwalk? You leaned on the railing and said, "let's talk" That's when I heard the blaring sounds from my alarm clock Sweating I fell out of bed and woke up.

Boomerang 04:21
I want to sit around a bonfire, but I'm afraid to get burnt. Turns out my whole life I've been aflame since birth And the 3rd degree burns No longer phase me You can't hurt what's not there And you don't believe what you can't see. Hearing you leave and come back again It's starting to feel rehearsed I can predict what happens next But each time it gets worse and worse Boomerang, I throw you away Boomerang, You come back and say Why won't you just let me go? Why won't you just let me go? Boomerang, I throw you away Boomerang, You come back and say Why won't you just let me go? Why won't you just let me go? Why won't you just let me go? Why won't you just let me go? Why won't you just let me go? Why won't you just let me go?
