Stammering always Through my apologies Original only In what I won’t believe Bitter and lonely The taste of my defeat Sound of a conscience That rings incessantly And the mystery kills me And the questions are heavy And the trees are all empty And it’s torturing me And I’m embarrassed But not for faltering Only for speaking Words that I didn’t mean And the mystery kills me And the questions are heavy And the trees are all empty And it’s torturing me

Excitemike 02:28
I feel like I'm peeling off my skin There's nothing left to hang onto this old skeleton I'm sick of sitting idle but I'm overwhelmed by all of this And my conscience is blacking in and out of consciousness Oh, I'm going out again But I've been feeling broken beaten down Starting to rust and fade I'm turning into dead weight Worried that I'll end up as an artifact A cautionary tale, filled with nothing but regret But the fear of missing out just keeps creeping up on me And I just need to breathe Oh, I'm going out again But I've been feeling broken beaten down Starting to rust and fade I'm turning into dead weight

Lacquer 04:06
Let us not be understood Let the record spin upon and on and on and on Acrimonious at best At the worst an island broken off the continent Let us lie in peace again Let the standing feuds diffuse and mend the mess we're in And I wish for all the best At the present moments and for all the rest That ain’t the way to force a smile Sucking teeth and straining cheeks and holding tight Maybe then it’s for the best Balling up the feeling hold it to your chest Let the light return again Let a luminated thought come now and then And we’ll save it for the best Moments come and go and lead us to the next Let us not be underfoot Let the heel spin upon and on and on and on

Nothing but Nuts and bolts and such Shaking round This empty head of mine But...I...think...I...forgot… Pitch a fit If you're sick of it Nothing left But shells round anyhow And...one...more...thing I lost

Styrofoam 02:44
What's the difference between Change and everything falling apart on me? What's the difference between Change and everything falling apart on me? Where did the last year go? Buried under work and menthol smoke I've seen too many ghosts Breaking apart like Styrofoam Is this another test? Staring at my hands and wondering What it is I do next This is another test Toe in the water and I'm Sounding out my intentions What's the difference between Change and everything falling apart on me? I've seen too many ghosts Breaking apart like Styrofoam

Heatwave 04:26
It's getting too hot to sleep Ive just been lying here, trying not to think About last night and everything I'd said or done Keeping my eyes shut feeling like an idiot When the heat wave comes and goes Its a heat wave, don't know you? Great job ignoring all the warning signs Cracks underneath the ice Ready for the sea levels to rise Before you call it a night I walked from Rogers Park to Lake View Running out of ways left to try and impress you The Heat wave comes and goes It's a heat wave don't you know Great job ignoring all the warning signs Cracks underneath the ice Ready for the sea levels to rise Before you call it a night It's no vacation Unless you come back badly burnt You rest uneasy And so you toss, and so you turn. And while you're peeling, You grow anew but not a lot Some transformation, Thought you were cool and now you're not
