My Winter in Medford is quieter without you
My kitchen at Midnight is quieter without you
My evenings in, early, are quieter without you
My pockets and wallet are quieter without you

But frankly, I'd asked you to stay
It's not my fault that you left anyway

 

This drunken body I've left behind
And the problems that are no longer mine
I resided under your broken feathers
For too long scraps of pictures in a box
Is what remains of those childhood dreams
You'll never know, The person I've become

 

And now I want to fall into something else
An origami plane to a distant island
And I don't want to show you my feelings
I don't want to force you to deal
I just want to crash through the ceiling
Before it gets too real

 

I want to smash things
I want a coffee
I want to punch myself repeatedly
Let's watch a movie,
expend no energy
and just be
Can we just be

 

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Such a heavenly way to die

 

This is a time in my life where everything is falling apart,
and at the same time it's all coming together
Those summer days that I longed for
never really were what I wanted them to be

 

If I live to see the seven wonders,
I'll make a path to the rainbow's end.
I'll never live to match the beauty again.

 

Go without
'Til the need seeps in
You low animal

 

Slowly drifting into a peaceful breeze
Tongue tied, twisted are all my memories
Celebrating a fantasy come true
Packing all my bags finally on the move

I'm leaving today
I'm living it, leaving it to change

As I'm driving I'm captured by the view
So much beauty, the road becomes my muse
The heat is rising and my hands surfs through the wind
Cool, calm, collected is a child that lies within

I'm leaving today
I'm living it, I'm leaving it to change
I'm leaving today
I'm living it, I'm leaving it to change
But somehow I'll miss it
I think I'll really miss it

I turn up the radio
And I'm feeling like I've never felt before
Turn down the memories of yesteryears and broken dreams
I'm free, finally free

 

Yesteryear still rings in my ear
like buttons and pins
This mess we're in dissolves in time

 

exit for shore points
I don't wanna go to spring lake again
cuz walkin in a dream did this evil that's staying with me

 

No direction, I am a compass
Constantly spinning
Constantly searching for the end
Never reaching our destination
But the goal was never when
Or where
Or who
It was only you

 

i bet you've cracked under the pressure, and never listened to those records

 

I was blind, but now I see
You made a believer out of me

I was high, but now I feel low
My own private I dunno

 

this contusion-colored evening
maybe you paint the silhouette of the gaunt tree line singed in ‘97
when wildfires threatened my development
then swallowed towns the Klan had founded

the shaded sand dens were Party Caverns
for them who’d come hallucinate while we slept
scaring our rabbits to death in their hutches
I can’t remember how I used to live

but they’ve all cased their jumps fatally
I willed it to be in the hours of blankness preceding sleep
oh the years we waste faking remorse

every decision I have ever made
bred the branching future’s mute howlers
with burst-vessel red eyes
roaring inaudibly
on the freezing morning walk to the corner grocery
what hangs over the big empty country
reborn in the negatives of photos of dusk
regret so huge it’s on a phantom axis
receding beaches hissing hearing damage
the miles-long column of cold moonlight cast across still seas
when my nose begins to bleed

some submitted to having their lights put out
by the basement thrill killer of the neighborhood
I heard being murdered is no experience
ten or eleven wounds in
“It’s not about Satan or anything. You just die– It’s weird.”

 

Cause everyone needs my help
But I'm tired and I need theirs as well

And if every day is an eye for an eye
Well then I won't lose sight
Cause if I never get any closer in
Then they won't know I tried
And the better way's looking up all night
So I don't lose my mind
Cause I see the same light as you
Just not the same signs

Every word is a whisper of someone's hell
Every name is a number to someone else
And everyone counts themselves
Till they break and the words slip out

 

What's this? I'm a fan and google isn't giving me anything.

 

i've been playing it on repeat, it's so quality

 

This is really cool. Syncing the album to check out.

 

bandcamp's newsletter, always great content!

 

I know you're disappointed
What the hell is wrong with me
I'm sorry I was so selfish
And all I ever cared about was me

 

I'm back with scars to show
Back with the streets I know
They never take me anywhere but here

 

how am I relating to Simple Plan in the year of our lord 2017?

No you don't know what its like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what its like to be like me
To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one there to save you
No you don't know what its like
Welcome to my life

Do you want to be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more
Before your life is over

 

I just want to know that I did all I could with what I was given.

 

your life is a song
but not this one
