It's Not Hard to Decide
02:28
|
|||
Your elbow to my ribs, the terrifying heat
It’s all consuming me
And it’s happened twice before the blossoming of spring
It’s disappointing me
But it’s not hard to decide
Under the pressure the body it slows
An understood look, and your eyelid slips
But it’s not hard to decide
My ego’s caught a flame in thinking it’s unique
To see it underneath
But it’s not hard to decide

Blood
02:48
|
|||
Genes don’t resist, there’s no free will
To hold up a truth of your own
Crossing the line with consistence
To falsify patterns of love
Distance rots our collective thoughts
But I have to wake every morning
With some bit of fractured self-love
And I am not weak, sentimental is how he would describe it best
Distance rots our collective thoughts
And I’m not sure you’re sorry, but neither am I

Who Pays
03:16
|
|||
When do you give up?
When do you talk back?
When do the flames engulf a house of brick?
Who pays
And it’ll repeat
(Come again?)
And it’ll repeat
(Come again?)
Till it
Who pays
And they will bleed you dry
And colonize your mind
The deaf at heart won’t feel obliteration, fear
When will you give up?

Leah

Leah come home to raise your baby
With love and respect, to love and resist

Talk and Beg
02:26
|
|||
I keep the line taut in all directions
I just want to love full, unbounded on our time
And you talk and beg
Let’s just get right to the point where I’m a disappointment
And is no woman untouched by the chorus of our expectations?
And you talk and beg
I know I’m not strong enough to be a mother

Restless
02:59
|
|||
Is this reference point too strong?
When I’m not feeling well I’m finding there’s nothing unique left to say
But the cold breeze against my back-
You always make me wait for you
The feeling of content alludes
I’m restless (push back)
And all I want to do is sleep (push back)
You always make me wait for you
The feeling of content alludes
And you fear that
I’m restless (honey, wait)

Sullen Days
03:33
|
|||
Your sullen days
Are my embrace
You kiss my neck
Inflamed, pious, lust, affection, misdirection, self-pity, self-worth, transferred desire, haze overflowing
Logic
Sadness
You
If this gets any louder I won’t get out of bed

Mourning Light
02:36
|
|||
Hold my heart down
Pull the curtain wide
Quiet mourning light
Hold my fevered brow
Pull the curtain wide
Quiet mourning light
Lost in caustic time
Quiet mourning light

My Cyclic Heart
03:43
|
|||
I’ll be the castaway
And then, you’ll be my shore
Steady ground counts for even more
Your seething undertow exposed
I can’t ignore
Pulled in your gulf down, even more
And it’s a hard way to go down
You’ll be the castaway
And I, am my own shore
Even just a day I will implore
Wake up, cool down, again it is
My cyclic heart
Proving that it can hurt even more
And it’s a hard way to go down

A Modern Ideal
03:05
|
|||
My right side will sink into his whole incline
An unarticulated friendship’s hard to find
Am I sold to convolute the obvious?
A modern ideal? I don’t speak for both of us
Will you be here in harder times? Will you be true regardless?
Passing on the hearts and heals of hard-earned trust?
Or freedom from the will we’ve drawn to play our part?
And she asks me how one love, one love, one love
I will be here in harder times
I will be true regardless
I love you, with death do part
I love you, regardless
