Cut the Carpets
05:35
|
|||
escalators
build of concrete
an outlook on life
fatal to blow
red canvas
peachy tiles
far from a headcheck
paradise lost
eat well while you can
no one has your sympathies
Every time i choose to forget
it's personal
major step to convenience
minimalist mediation
hobbyists keeping their pride
cut the carpets
cut the carpets, in the dark
cut the carpets
sever the ends
go on and save it for friends
trust the process
ease the pressure
it's the easiest
not the hardest
to aggravate
listless updates
to be suspicious
to seal the measurement
you got to level up
it's freeing to feel conflicted
even when i'm out of it
fleeting for eternity
it's good company
vibrant through it's freshness
shallowing diving
just another way to get by
cut the carpets
cut the carpets, in the dark
cut the carpets, in the dark
safely frowning
is decent therapy
dares me to find meaning
without reality
helpful indecision
wonn't work myself out of it
standing with one foot leaning
don't stop to move
you know i'm gonna have my reasons
it's the only way to stay adamant
positivety is essential to thrive
we buy smiles
i'll sell you one for a dime
cut the carpets
cut the carpets, in the dark
cut the carpets, in the dark
cut the carpets
sever the ends
go on and save it for friends
easy to be told
don't mean the disrespect
last that's ever been
the same as what i win
down we all go in reality
don't believe me
we buy smiles
so give it a try, give it a try
give it a try, give it a try
go on and save it for friends

New Matters
04:00
|
|||
see me speechless
isolation takes my energy
from my happiness
and the people that comfort me
they think I’m a loser
think positive
transformation such a fallacy
without confidence
it’s gonna take a miracle
to keep my sanity
in desperate need of advice
it's harder to guess
don’t wait for the ones to blame you
because karma’s not the culprit in this case
obsession habits
the facets of my anxious matter
new matters turn into
old matters
they’re in the past
i'm reacting
late in august
i'm still living here
as a graduate
that's me and everyone
spot the difference
still delaying
cause we're waiting
for the antidote
with some golden hope
panicking is not the safest way
to be careless
take in all that you can
it's gonna get tough

Red Strangers
03:28
|
|||
be aware stay put
listen up for what's going around
cool down keep covered
don’t hang loose
Like that other guy
riled up in spite
in stubborn desperation
he said all his retrograde
well worn in cellophane
better not stay in the shadows
playing through delusional wonders
with overwhelming conviction
blood sucking foolish sermons
there's no need to come together for this shit
things would be better without ignorant pricks
truth doesn’t lie it tears through the inside
stay away red strangers
this is hell, welcome to it
can’t believe we haven’t jumped this spot
getting worse heart hurts
can't turn around, we've gone too far
do it not for kicks
don’t bring the bad world in
deliverance is upon us
speak now i warned you
tell me you’ve accepted your silence
easy to say when you’ve haven’t done much
earned with sheer commitment
money keep you complicit
there's no need to come together for this shit
things would be better minus ignorant pricks
truth doesn’t lie it tears through the inside
there's no need to come together for this shit
things would be better minus ignorant pricks
truth doesn’t lie it tears through the inside
scars tell us all who done us wrong
not missing red strangers
not befriending red strangers
never ending red strangers
curses

first behind gets left behind
it wasn't my first choice
but we'll get buy
jump off from my two tone phase
could've thought twice maybe tried
but i couldn't buy
when did i become this whack
they're snickering in the back
it's got me wired
those kings and queens electric dreams
to each and every hope
who jumped the line
they'll wait to waste our precious time
trust me would i let you down
thinking i'm way too dumb
it's not my type
ask me what i bargain for
abstract as life may seem
its not sublime
spotless rooms with evil vibes
with pink totebag lights
aesthetic style
shady eyes they will help you judge
it's the perfect cover up
to feed your lies
so we wait and waste all precious time
age is motivation
to make the change
for a reasoned life
don't leave us hanging on
cause we really don't know
if you're serious
our bus is at the station
five more minutes
we're leaving
was your sighing all that really was
there's not a known door
for a short term exit

Slow Street
06:04
|

watch me as i talk to myself
what goes around comes right back
honestly something is happening
i gotta be sure, i gotta be sure
maybe i could use a friend
been weeks without personal touch
empathy’s the only way out of here
another day’s coming, tomorrow
on slow street
take your time to cross and look both ways to walk
doesn’t pay up to get far
it only goes on for so much longer
soon enough we’ll be jumping around
so grab your bikes and we’ll take off
southern breeze right on my neck
the coolest you’ll find in the summertime
on slow street
take your time to cross and look both ways to walk
doesn’t pay up to get far
it only goes on for so much longer
could we turn around and see what we’ve found
slow street takes its time
slow street takes its time to walk
on slow street
take your time to cross and look both ways to walk
doesn’t pay up to get far
it only goes on for so much longer
on slow street
take your time to cross and look both ways to walk
doesn’t pay up to get far
it only goes on for so much longer

Comedown
04:11
|
|||
sure i wasn't kidding
when l told you loneliness sure sucks
cautiously careful
it protects me safely
in a dog fight
constantly lost
ever a moment to rest is gone
passing seconds get too long
oh no
full speed comedown
when it all falls down
we’re in trouble
delivers fear without delay
positive thoughts can’t keep you sane
and no one sees me trying
it's a guarantee that
you won't see me crying as i crash
wrapped my head in a cardboard box
my brain got fried as i stepped outside
every storm where the light go dark
the thunder booms and the power dies
in the basement
trees coming down
growing up solitude was peaceful
with nothing else to demand
oh no
full speed comedown
when it all falls down
we’re in trouble
delivers fear without delay
positive thoughts can’t keep you sane
and no one sees me trying
it's a guarantee that
you won't see me crying as i crash

Cooler
04:22
|

cooler
in a deep blue
all you need is one case
that’s the hard truth
its fitting
for a sunday
beach day or a picnic
take it or leave it
if it gets too hot i’m baking
can’t cook when i'm working
meals are my nutrition
please keep the lid on
it's always cold and perfect
there's no such thing as timing
hands off drop it
that's not yours
that’s my cooler
you can’t have it
that’s my cooler
go and get your own
that’s my cooler
yes i'm selfish
everything i need
i have it
it lies in my cooler
cooler
filled with ice packs
the ants are so addicted
they fly where the food is
now my arms got 20 bug bites
you'd think i'm just the favorite
it's not my sweet blood
it's the blue bin
that’s my cooler
you can’t have it
that’s my cooler
go and get your own
when i'm famished
somethings wrong
is that a new hat
getting cooked without
sunscreen or glasses
in need of some protection
my spots are growing
but i have no cash or credit
here's all that i got
have my cooler
go and take it
have my cooler
now you've got your own
have my cooler
i'm not selfish
everything i need
i don't have it
it lies in my cooler
it lies in my cooler

Understood

anywhere that i go
everyone that i know
when the times comes to mind
you’ll keep me under
page is covered in writing
best of luck on finding
out the truth's not pretty
you’ll keep me under
you’ll keep me under and it's all misunderstood
takes all your time to find
that patience slowly drips right your spine
to run right through ya
trying not to be flashy
even if it was tacky
every word i’ve meant it
you’ll keep me under
simmering in silence
need a little guidance
but the world don't see us
you’ll keep me under
you’ll keep me under and it's all misunderstood
as the sand creeps down the hourglass
the burning tensions all shall come to pass
it won’t cool out for many mornings
when i get distracted
i'm sitting out of practice
in the time of redemption
you’ll keep me under
not one for distance
it's hard to live with hiding
once the days don't add up
you’ll keep me under
you’ll keep me under when it's all misunderstood
a persons touch may keep one warm
the harder it gets when i'm left alone
i said someone they've gotta save me
am I fully loveless
is this circle broken
but my eyes grown restless
you’ll keep me under
forget all my futures
pick up the pieces
and get back to beginning
you’ll keep me under
and let's hope that understood
