My Only
04:22
|
|||
I have yet to get out of bed today
(my only)
These feelings of dread all replay instead
(time can do such harm)
Why do I make the same mistakes
That bring me back here again?
Who am I to say I’ll never change?
I have to look at myself and say
“You’re my only”
My only one, my only one
My only
The ceiling has lifted off my chest
(my only)
The sky is the deepest I’ve seen it in days
(time will take me far)
Why do my feelings always sway
From warm enough to abyss?
To fear that I’m stuck with me forever
I just had to look to myself and say
“You’re my only”
My only one
My only

Nothing Left Inside Me
04:26
|
|||
You told me I’m not easy
But who ever said that I was trying to be?
Did you think I was hurting?
Cause I have nothing left inside me to grieve
There is nothing left inside me
(don’t come any closer
this happens every time
the sky gets so polluted
and you’re just a waste of time
don’t tell me you love me
the words are not real
everytime you come near me
I feel it)
Love was the heir to our well of emotions
You drained the one in mine
You can’t break what’s already broken
The devil warned that I feel confined
Moonlit night, what a tease
If I still can’t see you clearly
Who are you to me?
Libido death in a bath of lilies
And I made my bed where I’ll lie
Angels die in my mind
Love was the heir to our well of emotions
You drained the one in mine
You can’t break what’s already broken
The devil warned that I feel confined
Inside me

In This City
04:47
|

In this city, it’s always so quiet
When you leave me
I feel like i’m dying
In this city, it’s neither a heaven nor hell
For you and me
In this city
I’m wondering, is all of this fleeting?
Cause love is so complicated
When you’re listening, watching
I’m always listening, watching
For any sign that you’ll hurt me
If the tunnel is ending
And every day is a gamble to find trust
If you can’t keep me above water
You’ll be dead to me, a goner
Cause if needed you the most
And couldn’t feel anything from you
Then i’ll be drowning in the answer
And this city is already suffocating
When you’re listening, watching
I’m always listening, watching
If the tunnel is ending
And every day is a gamble to find trust
And I refuse to bet on losing
So i want you to remember that i need you
To love me, to hold me in this city
To listen, to watch me
Listening, watching

Crossing Over
03:31
|

You can’t get use to us
A night out is a target on my back
There will never be rest for the tremors in my hands
You made me play the game of crossing over
When traffic is heavy, they all run over me
A thousand miles runs empty
As i’m dying on the concrete
Will you tell me then I’m crazy
For thinking I could be like you
And make it over safely?
You bring me nothing but pain
I want out of this cloud* you’re chasing
I’ve been fully reduced to the sounds of crashing
Cause when you play the game of learning danger
And the traffic is heavy
They all run over me
A thousand miles runs empty
As i’m dying on the concrete
Will you tell me then I’m crazy
For thinking I could be like you
And make it over safely?
Cause when you play the game of crossing over
* cloud - clout

Wait a Week
04:16
|
|||
I’m wide awake but still in a dream
Where you are laying right next to me
My heart is a lion’s den in love
That roars every night to keep me up
So I decided that I’ll wait a while for you
Maybe a week, baby
I’ll wait a week
Yeah

Please don’t promise me anything
Please just let me be
I don’t want to feel resentful
Don’t rely on dreams
I no longer see my angels
A sting of envy
Throbbing and seething
From getting myself too close to a story
An offering of an empty fantasy
That we spent too long building up
It’s only a matter of time before that’s all it ever was to us
A figment of our imagination
Seen in a place of hurt
And it eats me up to feel so alone
Being in the belly of uncertainty
So please don’t promise me anything
Don’t rely on me
I no longer see my angels
And I don’t want to feel resentful
Obsessive, incessant telling of absence
Carries a light of hope for a memory
That holds an abandoning
That we all remember differently
It’s only a matter of time before that’s all it will ever be
And it eats me up to feel so alone
Being in the belly of uncertainty
So please don’t promise me anything
Don’t rely on me
I no longer see my angels
And I don’t want to feel resentful anymore

Venus
03:56
|

I guess this is just how it is
Venus as a complex trapped in my affection
I’ll never let another in
My eyes set on Adonis
My one conquest
I will spend a third of my life giving all that you need
Our touch is revealing
I don’t wanna let you go
Venus, don’t you take him from me
The stress manifesting in diaphoresis
Venus as a complex
I gave my all to colder climates
Love him so much it kills me
To be the one who’s seen as heartless between us
I know that I feel
And it’s getting to me that I can’t love myself
When he’s with you
Diaphanous, the veil is thin
Watching you all over him
I’ve never been so envious
Oh, Venus, will you pass the key?
I just can’t get enough of it
Heaven only knows what it is that you’re doing to me
And it’s manifesting in diaphoresis
Venus as a complex
I gave my all to colder climates
Love him so much it kills me
To be the one who’s seen as heartless between us
I know that I feel

I Cause You Pain
04:06
|

I cause you pain
When the temperature’s rising
She speaks so harmfully
I hear a voice in me
The one that will never leave saying
“I cause you pain”
When I push you away to deal
And she speaks so harmfully
Like night and day
An angel to a monster
Trying to keep it cool makes everything much harder
Can you feel the heat coming from me?
So dry my tears and let’s be done with
All these fucking problems I keep getting lost in
And i’ll finally see what it means to be still
Like a moth in darkness
I cause you pain
When the temperature’s rising
She speaks so harmfully
Maybe I should leave
I’ve lost control of me
And I cause you pain
When i push you away to deal
And she speaks so harmfully
Night and day
It’s like night and day
With all these fucking problems
Night and day
It’s like night and day
So baby let’s destroy them

Procession
04:47
|
|||
I can’t get out of this feeling
It’s burning everywhere
A love that stands for family Is this a bond we’ll share?
What if I die before you?
How many seconds will it hurt?
If I wanted, I could leave it
Just a body to dispose
Silver linings keep appearing
As it rushes through my bones And I can’t go back
The way they move, it moves me (I remain inane)
If I wanted, I could leave it Just a body to dispose
Silver linings keep appearing As it rushes through my bones
And i can’t
Cause we are tied together
What if I die before you?
How many seconds will it hurt?
(drink the vile I hold before you live forever if you want to)
If I wanted, I could leave it
Just a body to dispose
Silver linings keep appearing
As it rushes through my bones
And I can’t go back
