Egocentricism
01:44
|
|||
I need a clean page and a clear head
not a borrowed pen and a paper napkin
I need to figure out who I am
devoid of wet lips and a caring hand
I need a clean break and a clear road
to burn bright and set fire to this paper tiger
I need to feel better when I'm alone
to be of any value to the folks that I know

My Hand Around Your Neck
02:19
|
|||
I checked into a room
tried to figure some things out
Maybe the answers not in me?
Maybe I need some help
I heard sirens coming for me
Maybe they know something about
the things I did in my sleep
that I just can't get my head around
I'm afraid of the wolf hunting in my psyche
Is he gunning for the fox?
Can they coexist inside me?

Dishonesty As Self-Care
02:46
|

An uncomfortable mattress
stale coffee & little sleep
we are present and focused
there is nowhere I'd rather be
You pretend to be sleeping
so I wouldn't move my arm
You don't need an alibi for me
An uncomfortable talk
I've been avoiding for weeks
we're both so hopeful and flawed
there is only one true thing
I pretend to be sleeping
as you hit your alarm
and roll back into me
I'd rather be sleeping
I don't mean any harm
I'm just looking out for me

Selena's Hand's
01:39
|

Selena never let me share her bed
she'd kiss me on the mouth
and she'd whisper in my ear
and she'd shove my hand into her pants
when she'd had a couple of beers
but not once did she let our fingers lace
she'd fuck me in her shower, but never kiss me on the face
Selena said that she went off her meds
I still see her around
the differences are clear
and I don't feel disenchanted,
no, i will always hold her dear
not once did she let our fingers lace
she didn't fuck me over - no, I always knew my place

Reason's to Stay
02:49
|
|||
I’ve been coming up with reasons to stay
I’m not scared to move or admit defeat
I’m prepared to lay myself on display
I don’t fear my flaws, or much of anything
I know that I’m exhausting
& I know you need your rest
I’d just like to feel your head on my chest
to replace the weight of this goddamn mess
My friends all say it’s best I leave this place -
I just don’t see that as best for me
Through uncertainty, I just can’t shake this
Maybe in time … we’ll see, I guess

The Details
00:57
|
|||
If I believed in fate,
I would see you in a different way
The devil is in the details,
but the devil, he was an angel
So when I look at your sins, seraphim,
I just want to know a bit better
where have you been?
