Afterthought
03:21

I'm just a tiny part of everything
irrelevant if anything
an afterthought
We find ourselves in certain things
What we collect and what we need
and what we want
I have genius and a level head
I'm stupid and I'm ignorant
I'm getting by
Listen to Vanderlyle every day
not moving but sufficed to say
not wasting time
I've got some things figured out
It's not a lot to talk about
Been hard on myself, lived in doubt
but fuck pretending
A newborn and an older soul
Not jaded just uncomfortable
Choking on the atmosphere
For Christ's sake get some air in here

No Face

Our time and distance just got longer
If I could shrink the map I would
You're in the sun I'm under water
It's raining here just like it should
You wouldn't hear the words in my throat if I screamed with all I had
If I think about it hard enough then it won't hurt so bad
I see your face in every picture
I'm further than I've ever been
I left a mark on your left forearm
with a needle and ink under skin
You wouldn't hear the words in my throat if I screamed with all I had
If I think about it hard enough then it won't hurt so bad
I'm up late again swearing I could see your silhouette
Thinking I don't want this body if it's not laying in your bed
I just can't see you
That's what you said
But I'll trade places
with anything
I'll be the ocean
against your legs
I'll be the grains of sand on all your beaches

Weak
02:38

I saw you walk through the mezzanine
Dressed up and fell even shorter
A different kind of complacency
Blocked by your own brick and mortar
So while you wait on your funeral
Blend into curtains and backdrops
I'll make a place that's comfortable for those I love
Hateful, I understand it
Shameful, the way that you planned it
Pine for what you stole
I'm not as weak as I thought
I've been faced with life
The way that everyone I know has been
right now or at some time
A fault line will shift
A change of pace for every time
I saw my gold but struck just shy of it

God Forbid
03:22

You lit some lives on fire
They say that you can't feel the heat while you're dreaming
And that's exactly why
I keep a candle next to me while I'm sleeping
And now you're face down, blacked out
Starting now to see it since you
Came 'round, found out
Seems your will has tapered into fucking nothing
A bigger person would've stood for something
Give them a better show
Do what it takes to keep on lining your pockets
Notice a weaker hold
A heavy hand's all that you had now you lost it
How sickening is that?
I think I'm proving I won't be like you
I won't be like that
