I Was Asleep Before

Stop waiting for the good things
Stop accepting what you cannot change
Stop blaming everything on fate
Start doubting yourself doubt
Start by opening up your mouth
Start believing what comes out
Don’t know what you’re waiting for
I’m not waiting anymore
Stay strong because you need to
Stay awake instead of sleeping through
Stay mad because they cheated you
Stand still and maybe they won’t see us
Stand down and then they will mistreat us
Stand up and they can not defeat us

Garden in Your Mouth
02:49
|

It must take up so much time
To make sure everybody knows
The things you like and things that you don’t
Brave of you to just assume
That anybody cares,
Never had much self awareness
You’re busy talking so much shit
I should plant a little garden in your mouth
If you managed not to choke on it
It’d be prettier than what’s coming out
I can see you in the dark
Sitting all alone
Sending messages to people you don’t know
Your energy won’t slow me down
I can only wish you well
Can’t help those who won’t help themselves
You’re busy talking so much shit
I should plant a little garden in your mouth
If you managed not to choke on it
It’d be prettier than what’s coming out
Guess nobody holds you when you’re feeling broken
And you never learned that every thought doesn’t need to be spoken

Birthday
02:43

I lied, but part of it was true
Just enough in case you called my bluff
That’s something that you’d do
I didn’t want to watch you show off with your friends
I can’t stand any of them, and they don’t like me, too
Don’t know how this went on for so long
But you like to act, and maybe I just played along
Well I didn’t go to your birthday,
Cause I didn’t want to be friends with you anymore.
I knew it’s something that you’d hate
Your favorite thing to celebrate and I pretend I forgot the date
I never met someone as selfish as yourself
You never offered help in that fake way that we always say
Let me know if there is anything I can do
What did I expect, it had nothing to do with you
Instead of talk it out, I would rather disappear
Things are working out, we haven’t spoken in 10 years
Well I didn’t go to your birthday,
Cause I didn’t want to be friends with you anymore.

Just Stay
03:44

One is too much, but 100’s not enough
Will it always be this way
One little nudge and suddenly
I’m up against the edge of another day
Somewhere in the inbetween
You were here, but now you’re leaving
Stay, stay with me tonight
It’s the only way I get to see you anymore
Please just stay
It feels so real, like you’ve just been waiting here
With nowhere else you have to be
Then you disappear for days, for weeks, for months, for years
Each time you take a part of me
I will keep my eyes shut tight
Wish I may and wish I might just
Stay, stay with me tonight
It’s the only way I get to see you anymore
Please just stay
Stay, I know it’s in my mind
But I never wanted anything this badly before
You are waiting for a train to (take you far away)
Where it’s headed you don’t know (I have to let you go)
Miss you more than I can bear (we had our time together)
Musn’t be afraid to dream a little bigger darling.

Get Yours (Karma)
03:27

Karma doesn’t work the way we thought
Maybe in small bits, but not a lot
Took me long enough to learn
No one really gets what they deserve
Cause I’d take it three times more
If it meant that you’d get yours
I have hope that what we reap we so
We buried seeds so deep how could they grow
Took me long enough to learn
No one really gets what they deserve
Cause I’d take it three times more
If it meant that you’d get yours
And I know we’ve all been warned
To be careful what you wish for
I wished for this
