1.
Let Love Go 01:55
Yes you’re flawed, but well intentioned. This adversity you’ll over- Come and grow stronger. This life is yours let love go.
2.
The Rapture 03:44
This is goodnight & goodbye Well I’ll be damned such a pretty face, you make me lose my mind when I am near you I lost my life out there searching For all the answers and this I know We’ll meet up again one day I am soul and you are the rapture Well I pretend that I’m ok It is ok even if it is the end Darling just forget, the times that we had The days we stayed in bed, the nights I made you laugh Darling just forget, the summer that we spent
3.
I can’t be held responsible for my actions on this night If I could take it all back I’d have stayed home locked up inside Guess I’ll just be getting drunk in the kitchen with my friends Far away from the site of you with him Oh how I hate how my throat begins to sink When you walk into the room with him (whoa oh) Someone tear me away I cannot bear to see this Pretending not to be phased but I’m shaking violently It’s another lesson in self-control It’s another lesson that I wish I never had to learn It’s another bullshit night I lie awake in suck city It’s another sleepless night I die a little while you look pretty Keep your composure, it’s almost over No don’t let them see you (you are the liquor that I can’t get out of my system You are a cancer that I can’t cut deep enough to kill You’re not the burning bush I once thought that my god could speak from You’re just the weed that sucks the life until the garden dries up) Keep your composure, until the garden dries up
4.
Alaska 03:01
Alaska you are colder and more remote than Alaska Charging through these arctic seas The silence comes to take from me But I won’t let you soak in solitude Lover come back to me (lover come back, lover come back to me) Even in my daydreams you are the one Who hushes me to sleep (hushes me to sleep) With your lips and soft speak Don’t think, don’t even say That the winter won’t leave I drown in thoughts of you Like Venice in the sea I see you in this thaw We’ll make it through the freeze I am no longer sovereign Over my own thoughts It’s only you
5.
I bite my tongue As you bite my lip My hands are tied when you Tie me up like this I choke on my words When you go down my neck Just like your pills And your cigarettes Black war paint smeared across my white flag pillow case I know where this will lead But the cure hurts worse than the disease Lecher I burn for you Lecher I thought I’d be over this by now You taste like a bad decision baby and I I couldn’t care less if this’d be the end of me I lose my spine when you claw my back Pet names keep me curled up in your lap (whoa oh) How can we fight when you undress I hate your love but I love your (whoa oh) (you got me riled up this taste of lust will spell the end of us)
6.
Cut me like a loss Like I’ll drop off the face of the earth Don’t let this drag out Any longer than it has to I think I know what I should do I am breathing My hearts beating But it doesn’t mean that I’m alive This is not the end When will I feel like I can Feel again [something anything I think I think too much When will enough just be good enough] Normal is such a foreign world That I’m not so sure I will ever learn Unstable and insecure Reclusive but I’m scared My friends are out without me once again It takes a gun to hold my chin up Marianna’s trench I think that I reached my low point but I know that miracles exist if we wish away
7.
There must be some secret code Of clever words I need to learn to String together to get you out of the cold I fall in love with ideas And you are Just another one Of my solutions You are the archeologist And I am ruined Come excavate this And find what is sacred in me My body is a boxing ring Of chemicals I can’t pronounce Your body is a foreign land I’m lost but not left without wonder This is not how I planned it to be…
8.
White Stone 01:26
They call me sinner, they call me wretch A good for nothing son of a They call me thief and a deviant Transgressor, black sheep full of evil They call fake you can call me coward I am a ghost but I’m not a liar They say I’m lost, that I am hopeless And from the dark (I hear you are) To start a new beginning
9.
You said that I was yours and yours alone Why won’t you tell me who is on the phone Can’t take it back now look me in the eyes Avoiding questions with a pointless fight (I can’t take this) Don’t you tell me that I was wrong I can see just who you are Don’t you tell me that this is my fault You did this on your own You got me right where you want me Two faced do I even know you Don’t think I don’t see right through you Don’t think I don’t see right through Lights camera action (Quite on the set) She’s making a scene Overdramatic Adding to her trophy case
10.
The doctor will be here soon As I held your hand in the waiting room Concrete cold one hand on the miracle Fast asleep and growing inside of you Colonies of earth and ocean Swallow me in this shame From the mystery we come Into the mystery we return The silence calls my name And maybe I’m the American If these hills look like white elephants If you were Mary then I played God What your body could bear Our conscious could not [This litany of things locked inside of me Like maybe I loved but what if I’m wrong That the feeling it came but now that feeling is gone Are we monsters making angels Is our home a sea for tears We won’t speak of this again We are too young and full fear That the dirt which formed us makes caskets along well lit paths Our cups are overflowing but we’ve never been more hollowed out than this]
11.
Jewels stream to the corners of your lips Not at all as pretty as gems should be Collecting all of the things that you left here This is not your home but it holds enough memories To be called so Fist raised in protest do little to inflict The violence that you feel But does express it so damn well What comes next hurts so much worse That you wonder if too could be called Illegal Waiting for the nightfall to hold you hostage Waiting in your tousled bones it’s like Drowning and burning at the same time (Fighter fighter fighter Never come back here) There’s a tear in the dress that you’re holding in hand You’ll try your best to sew it back together again [Waiting For the nightfall Waiting In your tousled bones]
