Skin 03:58
I want your hair between my fingers Wanna feel the fire inside your stare My body thinks that it's drowning Breathing the silence in the air Well I think we might lose our minds today And I think you might tear my world away Oh yeah Cus I want you on my skin And I wanna make you scream Oh and I'll fight you tooth and nail Cus I want you to win I want you on my skin I want your hands inside my calvins Wanna feel your pulse between my teeth And I can feel my legs fill up with needles As your breath rattles through me And I think we might lose our minds today And I think we might bruise our hearts this way Oh yeah Cus I want you on my skin And I wanna make you scream Oh and I'll fight you tooth and nail Cus I want you to win I want you on my skin I want your belt around your ankles WI want your grasp around my neck I wanna feel the burn of bleeding scratches As your eyes roll in your head And I think we might lose our minds today And I think we might bruise our hearts this way Oh yeah Cus I want you on my skin And I wanna make you scream Oh and I'll fight you tooth and nail Cus I want you to win I want you on my skin

Nothing 03:31
Nobody tells you it will all change Your brow will furrow Your love will wane You can never go home Without the deep sting of pain And why would they tell you this Cus I waited for you And I waited to prove That I've got Nothing - Nothing I've got nothing for you Nothing - Nothing I got something for Nothing - Nothing I've got nothing for Nobody tells you the old friends will die You'll only remember your last Scrap in their eye You'll slowly forget them But not if you try And how would they tell you this Cus I waited for you And I waited to prove That I've got Nothing - Nothing I've got nothing for you Nothing - Nothing I got something for Nothing - Nothing I've got nothing for Nobody tells you you'll seethe and resent The rich man for smiling The weak who repent And the fever keeps crawling Wth no-one's consent And why would they tell you this Cus I waited for you And I waited to prove That I've got Nothing - Nothing I've got nothing for you Nothing - Nothing I got something for Nothing - Nothing I've got nothing to lose

Kill Me 02:43
She's the wave that took me from my place And she smashed worn glass across my face Kiss me through a cloud of mace And all will be forgiven And she's the sun that burns my eyes With sharpened tongue and grated sighs Pluck my dreams out of the sky And tear them all wide open Cus I think that she might kill me But I need her to breathe I know it's easier to go But I - I need her to breathe She's the fire that rages red And drops the bombshells in my bed Oh I hope I don't wake up dead Before I scream for mercy And she's the beat that keeps my heart My winning finish my false start The song that stretches nerves apart And sews them back together Cus I think that she might kill me But I need her to breathe I know it's easier to go But I - I need her to breathe She freed my heart She feeds the blame And slowly washes All he pain From one hand to another From one hand to another From one hand to another Cus I think that she might kill me But I need her to breathe I know it's easier to go But I - I need her to bleed

All In 02:35
We played drinking games with eachother's hearts From the ground it's hard to see the stars When your hair obscures your face My darling such a waste There's a lotto ticket in your bed I know you were playing me instead I know you've empty pockets You've got your hands on your ears When I'm begging you to stop it Just cause you're all in Doesn't mean you're gunna win You're all in When you're wearing all of my clothes You're leaving me way out in the cold Get that hair out of your face Cheap lipstick cheapens the taste I'm bluffing I don't know if you are You keep crying and taking it too far Broken bottles empty glasses on the floor I hear you scream as you're asking for more And I caught you in another hundred lies You keep smiling as you're wasting all my time I'm begging you to stop it But you think I can't feel you hands in my pockets When I'm begging you to stop it Just cause you're all in Doesn't mean you're gunna win You're all in You're all in Just cause you're all in Doesn't mean you're gunna win You're all it

These pills that I forget to take That bend me till my body breaks Bare my teeth And my heart flakes to nothing These thoughts that slip into my head That keep me seething in my bed Shed the skin I thought I'd scratched to nothing And it wears me down to nothing And it wears me down to me The beauty I forget to see That walks in step with haunted dreams And serves my memories up for free For nothing The love that I neglect to make That bends me till my bones they shake Bare my teeth Cus I don't take to nothing And it wears me down to nothing And it wears me down to me

Leaving 06:17
Honey I've lost myself You don't know the feeling But I've never known much else I've been in pain for so long I'd rather be strung up Than dragged along Cus I've been waiting For you to come to me And you've been waiting For something that I'll never be You just don't love me no more Cus I'm losing my mind And it's killing us all I make you feel insane Cus you can't make no sense Of my gaslighting games We've both been working so hard I'll be asleep by the time That you get in your car I saw that fire in your eyes Oh when you screamed and you screamed That you don't have the time My heart's littered with some things That you'll never see You've been begging For something that I'll never be You just can't love me no more Cus I'm losing my mind And it's killing us all I make you feel insane Cus you can't make no sense Of my gaslighting games I'm leaving town I'm getting out There was a price and there's always been You'll leave a note When you let go Saying that you deserve better than My ribs have punctured my lungs Because I've been laughing And laughing at what I've become You've made me such a tough hide If you hadn't have fought me I wouldn't have chosen a side We all come clean in the end Cus we can't keep on squirming around In the thick of the scent You've been afraid for so long But you'd rather the strung Strung up - than dragged along My heart's littered with some things That you'll never see You've been begging For something that I'll never be I'm leaving town I'm getting out There was a price and there's always been You'll leave a note When you let go Saying that you deserve better than I'm leaving town to leave you I'm leaving I don't need you I'm leaving - I'm getting out

Somewhere in New Jersey My heart took a break to beat And as time was fucking money Well she smiled and said 'we'll see' You'll never see the forest While you're stuck inside your greed As you wait for you life to be long And I'll lie to your face And I'll lead you astray And I'll give you away Oh but honey You would do the same for me Nothing works out till you work out What you're doing wrong And there's nothing left to gain When you hide secrets in your songs Lying is a game we play That helps us all belong While you wait for what you will become And I'll lie to your face And I'll lead you astray And I'll give you away Oh but honey You would do the same for me Nothing else will change you ways Until your voice is gone And we are not mistaken We've been herded up and stung The only thing you'll see Are these ideals to which you've clung While you wait for you life To be gone And I'll lie to your face And I'll lead you astray And I'll give you away Oh but honey Don't we all do things for money Awful things for money And you'd do the same for me

Freightliner 03:08
You hit me like a freightliner You hit me like a freightliner You'll never be What I wanted So I'll leave you at the station Say that I was stuck in immigration There's a song that plays in my head There is someone that I want instead of You hit me like a freightliner You hit me like a freightliner You will never be what I wanted They put arrows in our skin And we keep pushing those barbs further in Blind archers shoot at night Cus they won't see me in the morning And you hit me like a freightliner You hit me like a freightliner You will never be what I wanted

Bitter End 03:50
Well I hope that when we die it's fucking over Cus I won't do this shit over again It's cruel enough that we're just growing older And I'd like to know that there's a bitter end Cus I won't believe That I won't be free I hope that when I'm gone you'll hold my mother And tell her that I'm better off this way Cus I never liked the dawning of new troubles And I hated that old day job anyway Cus I won't believe That I'm not allowed to leave Take my blue guitar down to the water You know that I won't play it anyway And you know that I've been living on the border Of life and death where sore minds go astray Cus I won't believe That I won't be free Cus I don't believe
