LYRICS:
can you see me shaking in the dark?
i test the air, you hit your mark
you throw a line to me, and boy you’ve never missed
i pull you back again, you hit me with a fist
stitches are covering my chin
but i still speed to you again
you’re a glacier in my chest that doesn’t seem to melt
take off my seat belt
if you stay here long enough, i’ll let you
crush my lungs
squeeze out the air
break me and
see how little i care
crush my lungs
do what you may
i’m all torn up
but i like it that way
your smile chokes me on first sight
your laugh’s like starting up a fight
but you’ve got teeth, and now we’re talking up the town
i wanna tear it down
yeah, you’ve been here long enough, so you can
crush my lungs
squeeze out the air
break me and
see how little i care
crush my lungs
do what you may
i’m all torn up
but i like it that way
you build me up eternally
i crumble at your words, you see
you’re perfect, like a great movie
i wanna know behind the scenes
i’m drowning
in your thoughts and your hypotheses
i knew that falling hurt, but you can make it feel like zero g’s
just give me a hand when you push me
i know i’ll get better and you deserve me
and i deserve you too
you don’t need second chances when you’re so perfect in the way that you
crush my lungs
squeeze out the air
break me and
see how little i care
crush my lungs
do what you may
i’m all torn up
but i like it that way

LYRICS:
i kept counting all the nights down till the summertime
now why am i dreading the sun when its in the sky?
oh shit, did i slip up? am i getting it wrong?
i’m in my bed till noon, i shoulda been outside all along.
we’re getting passed the awkward small talk
you tell me we should get out, take a walk
i’ve never really gotten how to
start these conversations, heard you say
the heat itself is fine
the humidity makes you uncomfortable
but we can’t stay inside
so let it be a little uncomortable
give me some shade, give me a chance to collect my thoughts
my head is pulsating, my words keep on getting lost
fighting through my own frustrations
thanking you for all your paitience
i always find myself when i’m stuck
in those muggy places, heard you say
let’s play outside, let’s talk about
our greatest fears, our strongest doubts

Better Now

LYRICS:
i shot myself right in the foot again
they’re standing outside, i won’t let them in
i’m better now, but i’m still not high
you can’t help me out, but neither can i
i’ll pretend like the trees are hollowed out
but i know they’ve still got bark
i’ll turn off all the lights in the kitchen, but
it takes time to get dark
and i’ll tell him that i still love him but
it’s hard to hold his hand
when they’re saying that we are pretty and
i know its to condescend
and he said
why can’t you
just get better now, better now
try something new
and just get better now, better now
why can’t you
just get
and i’ll tell him that i still love him but
i’m working on myself
and i’ll tell him that i still love him but
i’m working on myself
why can’t you
just get better now, better now
try something new
and just get better now, better now
why can’t you
just get better now, better now
try something new
and just get better now, better now
why can’t you
just get
i’m better now, but i’m still not high
