RIP Zone 02:57
you’re depressed in the suburbs i got those big city nerves when we collide it feels less empty stillness blankets me, perplexing relief something i’d never seen i know you’re on the train back home i am so prone to feeling sad skin my knees, always in a hurry clean up my wounds for me tell me not to worry skin my knees, always in a hurry help me slow things down cause i think too fast the wrinkles in my sheets silence between you and me i’m begging you with my eyes to stay here one more night will you stay here one more night? i know you’re on the train back home i am so prone to feeling sad skin my knees, always in a hurry clean up my wounds for me tell me not to worry skin my knees, always in a hurry help me slow things down cause i think too fast i know you’re on the train back home i am so prone to feeling sad

Euclid 03:10
top floor of your family’s house crack the balcony door to let the smoke out warm breeze on my cheeks makes it seem so easy cry until the early morning bike home, tell you when i get in told you all my secrets when i thought i knew you but i didn’t cry until the early morning wanna talk but you forbid it tell myself that i don’t miss you who the hell am i kidding? told me all about fighting with your brother sweating on guitars in the dead of summer play all those deep cuts, you know the words felt so right to feel so close top floor of your family’s house can’t forget the day that you cut me out cold breeze on my cheeks makes it feel less easy

Try Anything 03:40
make me into the bad guy when i speak my mind you don’t leave any room for me to get by make me seem totally crazy for feeling anything otherwise, i gotta hide you’ll find something wrong with me a game of fox and rabbit our knees and toes moved so quick was a thrill as a kid a method of survival made my brain feel so frantic was a thrill for a bit i could never catch you i can’t tell if you care at all i just wish you’d try anything at all said some things i wish i hadn’t desperate for you to know what i was feeling though i wasn’t well, yeah i admit that just wanted you to get it fell through, i bled for it i can’t tell if you care at all i just wish you’d try anything at all

Pore Over Me 04:00
will i finally open up to someone? or will i just run away again in a month? i always fall for those in other towns do i want alone time or to get out? alone time or to get out i don’t know what to tell you right now been in therapy nine years haven’t figured it out what do you wanna know wanna know about me? what do you wanna know i’m an open book you can’t read i’m restless yet unshakable in my ways inhale you quick, put you out in the ashtray i always pursue those with their own doubts will you make sense of me before i slip out? make sense before i slip out don’t know what to tell you right now ask me again in five years i’ll figure it out what do you wanna know wanna know about me? i’m an open book you can’t read i’m an open book, pore over me

High Horses 02:53
been trying not to waste all my time being sad about you the things you said to me; i predicted your next move so easily, yeah wish i wasn’t right still can’t get it out of my head: would you ever be my friend again? still can’t get it out of my head: could i even be your friend again? still can’t get it out of my head still can’t get you out of my head it’s been almost a year and i still froze when you walked into that show i didn’t know you would be there my body started shaking and i tried not to look your way but you still said “hey” still can’t believe you said “hey” so i just ran away so can’t believe you said “hey” oh i just ran away, pretended to be okay still can’t get it out of my head: would you ever be my friend again? still can’t get it out of my head: could i even be your friend again? still can’t get it out of my head still can’t get you out of my head

Way Back 02:58
i can’t find my way back to where i feel safe i don’t wanna sleep there’s too many things i can’t face yet never know what’s around the corner unopened doors that i’ve been avoiding, yeah i can’t find my way back to where i feel safe it’s the same shit, a different night i’m getting tired of having to fight for myself (i’d rather just fight myself) summon people who make me feel secure so i can try to endure the rest of the night cigarettes don’t really clear my mind anymore always doing what isn’t good for me some call it “addictive personality” is it subconscious or self-sabotage i won’t let anyone else hurt me (but me) ruminate over everything that keeps me feeling so lonely and i can’t fall asleep never know what’s around the corner i can’t ignore it, i can’t avoid it never know what’s around the corner i can’t ignore it, i can’t avoid it never know what’s around the corner i can’t ignore it, i can’t avoid it, no i can’t find my way back to where i feel safe
