wherever nowhere is

Close your eyes
And feel the air
Past your skin
And through your hair
As we fall back
Collapse and stare
Through window panes
That are not there
If I'm alive
Then let me know
'Cause I can't let
My bones erode
Drive all night
And lose control
One more light
And there we go
I never wanted this
Keyframes in my mind by the millions
I never planned for this
Bright sounds come alive in the distance
I never hoped for this
Have I run out out of time to listen
Wherever nowhere is
Wherever nowhere is

unforgettable
02:47
|

I think I woke up in another life
'Cause little things have changed, or so it seems
Is this a second chance
To play this little game
Or just plan in advance
So what is this, another day
Make some money, fall asleep or so it seems
Check the mirror like a thousand times
While I try not to fall out of frame
Blank stare till I feel something incredible
Inhale till my lungs are full of chemicals
I swear that my efforts are commendable
Is that it? That can't be it no
Out there every second felt so magical
Cold air in the fall was unforgettable
I swear that the shit I did was memorable
Is that it? That can't be it no
Let's just take it back
I knew that I would crash
Only so much you can do
When your spirit turns to ash
Have I been acting strange
Have I ever left the stage
Chasing after glory in a cage
I wanted more out of life than this
There's too much that we can't resist
I've been stuck with iridescent lights
Shifting bit by bit
Well the shades never end up right
Too far and you'll end up blind
Find a balance or fade into the night
If I'm alive then let me know
'Cause I got years and years to go
Trust the earth for things to grow
Stay awake, reap what you sow
Blank stare till I feel something incredible
Inhale till my lungs are full of chemicals
I swear that my efforts are commendable
Is that it? That can't be it no
Out there every second felt so magical
Cold air in the fall was unforgettable
I swear that the shit I did was memorable
Is that it? That can't be it no

breathe
02:45
|

You're a liar when you say
You've figured out your way
Make plans that turn to air
And then you hesitate
I'm a coward when I talk
Does that mean I care a lot
It all makes sense in my head
Oh well
I won't wait till I'm dead
Fate is Russian roulette
It's all there
In the mirror can't you see
We're just too scared to check
Life's been lowkey a wreck
But that's not news
Just count to ten and breathe
There's more to waking up than this
An endless chase for bliss
Has it changed you at all
And what has it made you miss
Oh well
I really shouldn't check my phone
There's no point in being known
Is it really that bad
That I've gotten used to being alone
I won't wait till I'm dead
Fate is Russian roulette
It's all there
In the mirror can't you see
We're just too scared to check
Life's been lowkey a wreck
But that's not news
Just count to ten and breathe

styrofoam
03:35
|

Look at us all go now
Still lost in styrofoam
I promise that I'll call you
As soon as I get home
Today's another day
Where I'm watching cars go by
But when's the last time that we paused
And tried not to think a lie
And it's not all bad, oh it's really not
Now you got some things in the house you bought
But what is this for
Do you ever open the door
Throwing coins down the wishing well
There are lies we always tell ourselves
But you don't wanna hear it
And honestly me too
I keep dreaming 'bout the same night
We're on lakeshore in July
And every time I notice new things
Like the wind and people's smiles
Most days are just photos
Yet this one never fades
A twenty minute car ride and I'm there
But it's not nearly the same
For a second when I drift off
I can still hear the sounds
Of fireworks and music
But there's no one around
I try to paint a picture
With words or with a brush
Whatever I can do to play pretend
Or stay in touch
And it's not all bad, oh it's really not
Now you got some things in the house you bought
But what is this for
Do you ever open the door
Throwing coins down the wishing well
There are lies we always tell ourselves
But you don't wanna hear it
And honestly me too
You say it's not gone, oh it's really not
Just a short commute in the car you bought
Well how 'bout a break
When'd you last see the lake
How much time are you down to sell
There are truths we never tell ourselves
But you don't wanna hear them
I think that we should listen
There's no breath left to spare
Let go in open air

lakeshore 7am
02:44
|
|||
I always end up here, somehow
'Cause everything's too loud
And I hate the sound of passion dying out
I watch as we collapse, slowly
To people who we're not
I think a lot that maybe it's just me
I haven't seen the sunrise, in years
Been sleeping in
But something told me go down to the pier
Take a minute
Take a breath
Let go and see what's left
I'll stay right here
No time, no fear
I'll stay right here
All love, no tears
I'll stay right here
No time, no fear
I'll stay right here
All love, no tears
All love, no tears

this isn't happening
03:32
|
|||
I'm falling asleep, 'cause I'm done waiting
And some of these days, aren't worth saving
I couldn't believe it
This isn't happening right now
I couldn't believe it
I couldn't believe it
All I got is a life hunched over
Pocket full of three-leafed clovers
Waking up each new September
Thinking when, what if, if ever
Pass me by like the clouds in the sky
Got a two-tone suit and a nylon tie
It's a brighter day, it's a clever disguise
But you know me, I'll stay inside
You might never know
Where your mind will go
When you think time's moving slow
And your legs are made of stone
Broken apart
Scatter the pieces
It's from the heart
I couldn't believe it
That was the day
We were okay
But things are not the same
I wanted this to change
Turn and burn the page
The scarlet in
The sunlight through the windowpane is cold
And we're just getting old
The time we had to hold
Our bones begin to melt
Lost with everything I've never felt
I'm falling apart
But I don't believe it
This isn't happening
This isn't happening
You might never know
Where your mind will go
When you think time's moving slow
And your legs are made of stone
You might never know
Where your mind will go
When you think time's moving slow
And your legs are made of stone
You might never know
Where your mind will go
When you think time's moving slow
And your legs are made of stone
I couldn't believe it

farewell
01:52
|
|||
I still don't believe it
This was all temporary
But maybe I'll keep it
As distant visions in my sleep
I really do mean it
When I say that I wish for more
We keep on repeating the same old scores
'Cause one day
We'll fade away
Yeah you know this well
What is there to say
Life goes on
And we stay unimpressed
Well I'd like to
Think I did my best
Did I do my best
Goodbye for now I guess
Got nothing to confess
So I'll say farewell my friends
Farewell
