Tell Me Everything

I’ll write down every word
So you can see it clearer
Catch you like a bird
Whose wings caught in a feeder
A hug or two or someone to catch the tears
You don’t deserve the bad things from past years
I am here and I’m going to help you so
Tell me everything
Take a deep breath and let it out
You will be safe and sound
I will be there to hold you in my arms
Don’t keep secrets hidden behind bars
A kiss or two or someone to hold your hand
Even if it’s hard I’ll try to understand
I am here and I’m going to help you
Tell me everything

It Only Gets Worse

They say it gets better so I picked up all the pieces to patch myself up
I wandered the courtyard to find them again
They’re chipping and dragging behind me It’s hard to keep track of each time I am breaking
I’m running out of tape I can’t keep it together anymore
Another night
Forever fine
I’ll keep it together for now
Even though it only gets worse
No matter how hard that i try
It seems my best is the worst
I’ll keep it together for now
Even though it only gets worse
They say it gets better but I’m tired of waiting for the light in the tunnel
I’m finding no purpose in life but I’m sticking around anyway
Another night
Forever fine
I’ll keep it together for now
Even though it only gets worse
No matter how hard that i try
It seems my best is the worst
I’ll keep it together for now
Even though it only gets worse
Even though it only gets worse

Safe and salmonella sleeping soulless bunch of people peeking pandemonium jumps around the room
Balloons and cherry pits among the children chewing bubble gum I’m fading, I'm fading far too soon
But you can wake the dimples light my fits of puzzle pieces
What's the matter with me anyway?
you can only feed the birds whose cries of joy can leave me wondering
What's the matter with me anyway?
Turned away because the nitty gritty details seem to bore my pretty
Why did I stay?
Bury the dirt forget your face I loved you but I can replace the words you used to say
You collect my simple mind the watermelons seemed so blind and
What's the matter with me anyway
You won't know the reasons that I’m falling through the seasons
What's the matter with me anyway
Try as I might to get you out of my mind it seems like I’ve done everything
I know it’s bad
I know that I’ve had enough of this summer love
Pack up the tattered tablecloths the checkered patterns all worn off
What's the matter with me anyway
you can’t fix what’s broken my temporary token asks me
What's the matter with me anyway?

Believe me, I ain’t lyin
I ain’t gonna do you no harm
Believe me, it would be easy
But I won’t go around breaking your heart
I ain’t lyin, I ain’t lyin
I ain’t gonna tear you apart
So trust me, like its a movie,
I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine
I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine
I wonder, if you'll leave me
And are you gonna be here for long
You need me, so don't be crazy,
Before you know it I will be gone
Don't you worry, when you are with me
It's easy breezy, and everything's fine
If you love me it will be easy
I'll be yours if you'll be mine
Don't you worry bout a thing cuz I'll be listening
I’ll be the one who loves you
And puts nothing above you
Wipe that smirk of your face and don't you hesitate
Don't leave me waiting here forever
You know you’re really clever
I'll be yours if you'll be mine
I'll be yours if you'll be mine

Naptime
02:18
|

A deep blue sleep/ Forget to dream
The waters cold/ Wash over me
Until the tide/ Forgets my smile
I’m coming back/ For more
Her sweet embrace/ So warm and great
I wish that i could stay
But if i remain/ I’ll miss all the fun
20 minutes of naptime will do
I would wait/ until the day
Where sleep comes naturally
For now im sure/ one nap or more
will help me catch the waves
If i dive right in/The splash will spray
and I can’t be /pulled away
At three pm/ I wade out to shore
To walk along the sand
Her sweet embrace/ So warm and great
I wish that i could stay
But if i remain/ I’ll miss all the fun
Give me five minutes of naptime or more

While You were on the town I’m having fun by proxy
You're getting down and dirty with your girl in the front seat
Hair slicked back you’re gonna reach to feel your heartbeat
Doing things you know are gonna get you in trouble
Talking smack doin crack youre gonna pay double
Gotta work it out get home clean and you’ll be fine
If you had twelve days to get away you’d hop a train and go
But youre set in your ways instead here you’ll stay
And everyone is going to know
You’re just another kid
Burnt out like your cigarettes
Making bets and spending all his dough
You’re gonna pay the price
For getting super high
You’ve forgotten what’s important in life
And if you’re getting by with a little bit of effort
All you needs a little push and maybe you would come first
Instead you’re going out participating in the bar fight
You’re gonna dream big study up with mommas money
Working at a grocery is pretty fucking funny
You’ll get another job buy a suit and you’ll be fine
If you had twelve days to get away you’d hop a train and go
But youre set in your ways instead here you’ll stay
And everyone is going to know
You’re just another kid
Burnt out like your cigarettes
Making bets and spending all his dough
You’re gonna pay the price
For getting super high
You’ve forgotten what’s important in life
Go find yourself a lady
Your life is super shady
Don’t forget your money, can’t forget the baby
The runaway is crazy
He ain’t feeling ok lately
He’s never gonna leave here
never gonna say goodbye

Band Boy Running

He was a band boy running
Miles away from his home
He's got a switchblade in his pocket and guitar on his back
The soles of his shoes are worn and black
He won't be gone for long the city's gonna eat him up
To that band boy running
Good luck
Run faster You gotta keep up
You’re after Way too much
Play your golden guitar
And write songs on broken strings
These streets that you've been playing on
Are heartless and cruel
If you don’t make any money
You’ll break all the rules
Youll fall behind unless you pick up your pace
Dear band boy running
You're losing the race
Run faster You gotta keep up
You’re after Way too much
He’s got a few more laps to go
To get a headlining show
The voices in his head say “you’re gonna make it big
Just one more day and maybe you’ll write a hit”
He’ll do anything to make a couple of bucks
To that band boy running
You’re fucked

He says he loves me but I’m not certain
Because when he does the voices disagree
He is wrong I’m not perfect
The illusion in his mind isn't real
I cant convince myself I’m worthy of happiness
Or anyone who makes me feel ok
I can’t break your heart cause my mind won’t let me
I’m better off alone, you’re better off without me
Don’t write him back, it isn’t worth it
I’ve left him hanging again
All his words made me certain
I’m better off alone, he’s better off without me
I cant convince myself I’m worthy of happiness
Or anyone who makes me feel ok
I can’t break your heart cause my mind won’t let me
I’m better off alone, you’re better off without me
I’m better off alone, you’re better off without me anyway

Falling
In my dreams I’m falling
No one is there to hold my hand
The grounds getting closer now
Laughter
Unstoppable laughter
If only I could catch myself
Grow wings and try to fly
Find out I’m on my own
Headfirst, heartstrong
Before I realize
I’m going to hit earth
Falling fast I’m headed for
Bright green grass
Or maybe
the great deep blue
And I know nothing at all nothing at all
screaming
I cant stop screaming
The rush of air goes by
I cant open my eyes
Save me
Can somebody save me
Hold out a net to break my fall
Reverse gravity and time
Find out I’m on my own
Headfirst, heartstrong
Before i realize
I’m going to hit earth
Falling fast I’m headed for
Bright green grass
Or maybe
the great deep blue
And I know nothing at all nothing at all
Who can help me now?
Will I ever land?
Am I really on my own?
I’m getting closer to the ground.
Find out I’m on my own
Headfirst, heartstrong
Before I realize
I’m going to hit earth
Falling fast I’m headed for
Bright green grass
Or maybe
the great deep blue
And I know nothing at all nothing at all

It's Going To Be Ok

It’s late
I’m fine
I’m great
Alright?
Its noon
The sun wakes me up from my sleep too soon
I’m fine
Alright?
Saturday and I feel the same
Half awake and I’m onto something
Bitter coffee headache swirls
But I can breathe so I know it’s going to be ok
