A Catalyst 04:44
A Catalyst It's another day on your windowsill The view was so lovely Lit some candles to burn until Morning would wake me Did you forget to put them out? How am I to see through this cloud? I wait for you to clear it up It's clear that I'll be waiting For too long so I'll sing a song And pray that you are listening With your ear against the glass for me You wanna see what we used to see So I'm a catalyst for a prison cell I'm still not leaving Searching for hope, ash on this home Soot filling and suffocating The holes poked for me to breath Have you forgotten me Just crack the lid, let me free You have forgotten me

February 03:20
February Stayed up most the night Fingers deep in his brain Couldn't take the weight Loses it all In a picture frame Couldn't concentrate Comes from dance halls A Midwestern fall He wanted it all There's a cold and a freeze She said "you're not the way you used to be" And he knows shes right but doesn't know what changed There's a cold and a freeze The perfect time to lay and let everyday play out the same

Against The Silence Could hear her through the wall That type writer spreading poison Over a wash of infomercials I guess we all have our inspiration Mine was always a good storm My heart grew Midwestern sadness She always placed upon herself A thistle in her likeness I can't find the words for her It rattles against the silence Take things too personally Feel things too rabid Throwing myself down stairs Walking into traffic When I get in some good light Can't help but feel something tragic Wash my mouth out with some soap Under the floorboards with your demons I'll make friends out of them I guess that makes me one of your demons But that way I'll find the words I'll see what you are seeing I'll wear it all on my sleeve No need for explaining All those gifts you pull, that kiss Will go out from happiness to what we're expecting Think of the first time you heard Jesus Christ was crucified Was it love? That was holding on
5.
Back To The Sea Do you wanna go back to the sea? Stay out late acting out some memories I'll wear the same clothes, tell the same jokes You just bring the same whiskey And maybe this time I'll hold to each smile line Follow that birthmark into the dark Let the lake take me no matter what degree With each orbit, it becomes more stark Trees only bones, God I am alone Day after day waiting for you to call me Maybe I'll atone, forget how I've condoned Newly eyed, maybe then I'll see The room speaks and spins Try to breath and not let it in I bury and it quickens I bury and I madden To the cupboard, to the drain Swallow pills and I'm grounded again Spending hours on a screen Dreaming of somewhere I've never been Oh, this is low, but I still have room to grow It's so hard to start the day No this isn't how everyday goes But lately its been more than I care to say Night comes and I start to drink Just something to push so I don't have to think I tell my friends to meet me With no intentions of leaving Instead I get lost in a memory Turn the lack into some fantasy Cut the bad like you were so pretty Cut the bad, yeah, you were so pretty Trees I am bones, I'm never alone And I don't think I could stand to be Man, I get cold, I'll never atone Keeping those memories to fantasy Memory to fantasy You said we would leave You said we would see Was I the only one to leave? So am I the only one who sees?

Mistake The Sunlight I awake every morning Fall asleep at night I awake every morning To what I mistake as sunlight I keep missing you Miss your crooked spine Your dull eyes Laugh and attack Your white lies Lazy worry Push to keep far Common cold Your morning alarm The way you drank wine Though you hated it Said it was worth it And man, it must have been wonder if its all planned It's gotten so monotonous Morning comes Each more colorless Wonder if dreams pull and drag Wonder if they are the same If you awake each morning and take a deep breath Stay up late wondering what might have been Do you wake every morning? Do you fall asleep at night?
7.
Us Animals To The Land I missed you at the lake Is that what this is becoming Something far away and passing Just a memory Come to me tonight again The same way as a lover And like that night be blind of the past Like we never touched another Come to me tonight again In a dive needing shelter Come living in your car Like you'd never need another Come broken and wounded For we meet on a familiar plane We'll lay brick after brick Try not to break again We're alive and then we're dead Us animals to the land To try and carry someone through it comes off quite foolish But no one would refuse a hand We'll press the headphones in So we could better listen The same soundtrack I hear The same soundtrack of two years We learned monsters exist They come alive in relationships Shy sinners with some sense Shy sinners with an arrogance Come to me as a mass tomb Or the countless dreams we gave up too soon Come birthmarked or crooked spined Hit hard like an appalling crime Come broken or wounded For we meet on a familiar plane We'll lay brick after brick And try not to break again We're alive and then we're dead Us animals to the land To try and carry someone through it comes off quite foolish But no one would refuse a hand You can take my hand

Passing 05:48
Passing I split on concrete Black and white When I see your face I reach across an ocean To your fading light But stay in place Were you ever here? Some faulty flooring Were you passing? Walked too many miles Hoping for a while For a passing You cut harder and harder The older time grows I can't remember Your scent or rushed roses Your shadowed demons Your always shelter Your woes Your opinions late nights in the Summer You are no ones, life lined to alone I can't remember Across a frozen lake Your blizzard silhouette Disappearing footsteps I could walk for days Stay in the same place Disappearing footsteps Upon a melting lake A broken bridge That's where you'll find me Faulty flooring So no ones going That's where you'll find me Find me in passing, should you wish to find me
