take me out back, feed me to the dogs
it kills me to say, you were right about it all
was there when I was young, way too scared to admit
it all just piled up, so I ran from it
you're telling me to stand up straight
but there's a curve in my spine
no words to convey,
bent out of shape all the time
all the time

played it shy like a little kid
hate that side of me, please don't dip
back to the wall, it's my old friend
said "wait all you want, it still won't mend"
running up the clock hoping that it sticks
brought up all that, yeah it's all it's been
too much give, all I got is bent
and you gotta say it slow so I know,
what do you mean?
what do you mean?
duct tape baby, I can taste it through my teeth
switchblade on you, I can take one for the team
sing it to me slow, so I know,
what do you mean?
please don't take it out on me,
know you took all that you need,
senses overloaded,
let it go and tell me slow,
what do you mean?
what do you mean, what do you mean,
"It's simple?"
on track but we're never on tempo
got harder, was I ever in the plan I
tread water every day again though
you sang through gritted teeth,
all along you'd hoped to leave
after all is all we'll be
say it slow for me, what do you mean?
what do you mean?
duct tape baby, I can taste it through my teeth
switchblade on you, I can take one for the team
sing it to me slow, so I know,
what do you mean?

please don't set me down,
please don't leave it like you do
it's cruel and comfortable
picking me up when you choose to
I don't wanna go, I won't give it a break
I don't wanna make more of these mistakes
I don't wanna know, I can't give it away
watching from the floor with a smile, it stains
please don't up and run,
please don't lie, I know your tell
finally met someone
that treats me like I treat myself
I don't wanna go, I won't give it a break
I don't wanna make more of these mistakes
I don't wanna know, I can't give it away
watching from the floor with a smile, it stains
smiling for the camera
watching where you end up
flash covers the hands of
someone new

go throw on that martyr skin
you're life's so crazy, yeah that's it
you know exactly how it's been
that's fine, that's fine it's all on them
go throw on that martyr skin
fuck that shit I'm not alright,
flip that script and pay no mind
look both ways and let me die
I can stand to pay you mine
I went to bat for you,
even on darker days
I wish we never promised
that we would share a name
plotted on california,
dry lips and cellophane
semi-sure, it's a blur
I ate the whole thing
I can't bend to pay you time
crawling sick, it's still on sight
playing victim, running lines
so uncertain, still a crime
good enough to take your love
I've heard it all, it hurt too much
I'm camera shy, I'll keep my clothes on
go throw on that martyr skin
you're life's so crazy, yeah that's it
you know exactly how it's been
that's fine, that's fine it's all on them

I'll admit that I've been selfish
I'll take the blame for this
but you know it's not helping
when you twist the knife again
never turning my back
even though I've gone mad
I know you feel bad,
that's why I'm still
protecting you
I still neglect the truth
I'm still protecting you,
protecting me, protecting you
I don't know what to do
when I can't tell the truth
the trip's too arduous,
it's a lot to unpack
"are you off of it?"
you dismiss it just like that
smash my head against the wall
so we can see which one gets cracked
I think that I've got a hunch,
no, you never had my back
(no you never had my back no, but I'm still)
protecting you
I still neglect the truth
I'm still protecting you,
protecting me, protecting you
I don't know what to do
when I can't tell the truth

THE SAME (23)
01:24
|

you wanna celebrate?
smash in my face
it's never been okay
but it's been the same
it's been the same
could never navigate
the clouds in my brain
I guess it's been okay
but I miss your face
I miss your face

indifferent (22)
02:57
|

I've got indifference buried in my blood,
I know I'm lousy with the stuff
tough luck, your touch is not enough
to heal the wound, quick stitch the cut
bad all day,
caught you on this side of the street
we could be talking,
I wish I wish I wish you-
I wish you would
come fuck me up
it hurts in waves
you're in my guts
I've had enough
of talking sadder stuff
we're falling out of touch
we don't know what we had, my love
(I think I might go crazy, you don't want me around?)
chase that fix like we know how,
this my cue, I'll see you out
oxytocin, mouth-to-mouth
old dog, but you never seem to put me down
it's a bitch, and it never quite comes around
sore throat but you could still do the snooki shout,
took the rookie route, baby threw the bookie out,
way I'm throwing money,
trust gets muddy when you took a mile
I wish you would
come fuck me up
it hurts in waves
you're in my guts
I've had enough
of talking sadder stuff
we're falling out of touch
we don't know what we had, my love
chase that fix like we know how,
this my cue, I'll see you out
oxytocin, mouth-to-mouth

say something nice to me again
I'm so strung out, I'm in my head
watching home movies
I just want to play pretend
laying around, I'm always off
maybe I need a little sun
retching alright, through the run
something nice, I won't try to fight
no it's not okay, it's not alright
feel okay, spot me through the sights
technically still technicolor,
heard it's not the same in those days
fanning through the rage I'm tryna hang
on something nice, yeah
what's the price?
what's it worth to feel alright?
yeah, what's the gripe?
I just wanna go, I feel the flight
shit, I'm done, let it run
sit and shudder
technically technicolor

DAYKILLER (22)
03:45
|

take it out on me,
when you need to talk
breaking out of sleep,
think of minutes lost
in the sleeper seats
said you'd see me off,
guess we'll wait and see
I'm in the wrong, and in my head
guarding tall, under your bed
say it softly just like that,
undressed all the shit I dread
DAYKILLER
I wanna get raw,
red in the face
sick little smile,
indulge in the space
DAYKILLER
ripping out my teeth,
laying in the lawn
I can't say my piece
found the feeling dull
I'll be what you need
if you need me gone,
guess we'll wait and see
got me inside, yeah
hoping it died, yeah
break in and hide it,
before they buy it
DAYKILLER
I wanna get raw,
red in the face
sick little smile,
indulge in the space
DAYKILLER
taken, I opt in to play off,
that passive bullshit you paint on
happy birthday a day wrong,
know I'm the worst, shit, I can't stall
blank disc, you copy and play on
drop in, and opt out at take off
slow drift, awake on the way home
one flip and slip and the day's gone

would you miss me (21)
01:13
|
|||
tell me
would you really miss me if I did it?
really saw it finished,
really saw the vintage
lights around my neck,
tilted tight instead,
choking out the breaths
this ain't leverage baby,
I don't need proof
I don't need help
know I need to
speak out for myself when I can't see through
all the negatives
strung up now I'm glowing brighter,
I put that baggage on my little brother
have him sitting, swollen up with wonder
all of the dark shit that we never brought up
how I hate that I can't live a normal life,
I said it twenty times, I feel it passing by
dull the jagged crawl, seconds at a time
live a real life or reach the finish line I,
I won't pass on this pain

UPRIGHTS (22)
03:28
|

charged conversations with myself
stand up straight, fix your belt
cry for help when it gets bad,
I know way too many people who don't do that
salutations, firm grasp
swear you called your mother's name
no, I heard that
a sideways talker,
an absurd laugh
won't be long til my dirt nap in a bird bath
problem on my right hand, gotta let it go
minutes on my left that I need to keep close
I got sights on the toll, I intend to pay in full
watching from the stands, pay attention to the call
indecisive, like you wanna switch up
don't fight it, keep it like a rainy day fund
no slighting, I just wanna see you get up
I'm smiling, gritting as it's ripping my gums
(lil instrumental jam)

smiling is gritting my teeth
are you still proud of me?
