Endling 01:43
what now, I ask myself three long years left on the shelf to gather dust I just can't rust in vain what now, I think out loud the story is over, now I must try and write a new one from prompts I'll find outside I find myself between two big bold lines you told me your truth now let me tell you mine come on, I'll tell you mine what now, it's cold outside I stare at the end of the line the pavement won't offer me answers so I'll take my chances in song I'll be lavish and loud if only I could make myself calm down

Sweat It Out 02:26
scratching at my arms, tearing out my hairs wondering whether it's okay to feel scared steam fills the room, preparing to dive why is it songs about death that make me feel so alive? I've taken the plunge, tentative steps leave a paper trail to follow in case things don't work out yet am I doing my best? have I figured it out? what can I do for now except sweat it out? I've walked for a while to some new corner of town imagined us watching the sun going down are we looking the best? have they figured us out? what can we do for now but sweat it out? set myself on fire just to watch the embers fall to the ground (we all burn down) I've been crawling in circles for quite some time I'm gonna figure it out 'til then I'll sweat it out I got drunk in the middle of the day and washed the time away I got drunk in the middle of the day and I missed you more than words could ever say

Free Therapy 01:52
I listened to ramshackle glory looking for free therapy I listened to Colin Meloy all adrift on an ocean my true love, I was lost at sea I'm not the person I wanted to be but if that's fine with you that's fine with me I never got used to my demons they've gathered around a small fire inside I never fit into my running shoes but I got better at trying to hide I tried oh so hard to get lonely almost always at home, absentee until my friends led me back to the end of the rainbow and there I found that I was finally free I'm not the person I wanted to be until I turned around, laid my weapon down and marched into the sea

Stilt Owl 03:41
the morning star couldn't light the way the air a cavernous grey monolithic sculptures marked the path dead leaves, living graves I am haunted by the past the things I cannot change I know I shouldn't overthink but here I am, drunk again frayed outlines, I feel like a cartoon I'll be gone one day soon canals entrenched into the land paths seeping through the mountain range spectral figures travel past they laugh as I succumb to change and I feel hunted by the past the things I'm scared you all will find a million skeletons that I know that I cannot leave behind frayed outlines, I feel like a cartoon I'll be gone one day soon and as the water rushes in and floods our little nest will I bring myself to say I gave it all my best? we're trying our best as the sun's going down misremembering stories and getting lost in the crowd but nobody's listening, we're just circling the graves say a prayer by the ocean in some vain hope I'll be saved I know this is not the way we hoped but there's not far left for us to go the ice is melting in our lungs you keep me safe, home in your arms
