White pine and disease Every day spent in skis Having a laugh over occurrences from Way overseas Felt assured just to know There were two more months to let go Then get just a week To pack all our shit up and go I don’t want you to go And you would agree Make the best of what’s left until We’re caught by debris Now it looks like we’re done Had a nice last hurrah Made the best of what’s given and Tasted the last drop Gray skies and bright screens Dwelling in world misery Feeling connections slip from friends who’ve moved on Just out of reach Feeling right back at home Surrounded but always alone Then weeks turn to months And our paradise becomes dethroned Your face illuminates And all I think is god just make it end Just take me back when things were permanent They give us all congratulations Education’s not concerned Our fulfillment comes from empty words I know that I’m passed my grief But surely they would have agreed There was no reason For completion Now we’re obsolete I thought I had nothing to lose But now I see that was untrue Now I’m keeping afloat But I’m caught in the undertow

Hold On 04:14
You told me you wanted to keep it rolling Not to leave it on the hill If I had known your intentions I wouldn’t have mentioned The way we had it still My only frustration is outward appearance For looking like I cared My head in the clouds took a hit coming down Now my want for love’s impaired I pulled you closer Closer I hated how you could Go on submit me to torture Please hold on Fuck all your bullshit analogies I went from heaven to facing reality I don't know what you were thinking I just to hold you i just want to hold you My attachment to you just arose from panic Purely instability If I had really been steady I would have already Overcame this misery Now you’re talking to me like it never happened I don’t need you never did You pretend it’s my fault this is just the result Of you going off the grid Clearly we had a connection And clearly you don’t feel the need to correct it I don’t want to hold you I just want amendment I just wanna know that you wanted affection All I wanted was a life with you Where I knew my own self needs Now i can barely breathe I don’t want you in my life but I know I Can do better than that I can do better than that Clearly we had a connection (I pulled you closer) But clearly we don’t have the means to correct it (Closer I hated how you could) So why’d you insist that we maintain a friendship (Go on submit me to torture) And why shift the blame you’re the one that severed it (Please hold on)

Lemons 02:46
I went to school and learned of lichen and heartbreak Surrounded by these people who I never knew I would meet Things were going well and yeah that's something that I won’t forget But never was I ready for what happened when we left Life is so sour, getting worse by the hour Seems like life gave me lemons and I hate lemonade School is in my warm pajamas breakfast starts at twelve Still hopelessness in excess starts to creep into my cell Paradise right in my hands yet somehow dropped the ball And even when I leave it’s like I never went at all Life is so sour, getting worse by the hour Seems like life gave me lemons and I hate lemonade Just wish I made some close connections with someone else who cared But if you thought you’d read me then you’re visually impaired Just want to go Just want to go back Back to the place and time before Was you and me and nothing more

call me! 03:49
Hey how have you been Have you been learning something new? Well I found out that walls don’t talk But they’ve told me more than you You left me out the loop last summer I knew you swam but you’re a runner You hyperbolized that you apologize But that doesn’t help I hope you realize that It wasn’t really up to me and you But that doesn’t justify what you put me through I’m hurting and I’m tired of wanting you To call back and unpack What changed your point of view I know I messed our whole thing up But I’m not the one to blame I’m not trying to be the victim But I lacked the strength to stay I threw your necklace in the water Sunk it like the Spanish Armada In another life we’d stay by our sides Unfortunate for us we had to divide and It wasn’t really up to me and you But that doesn’t justify what you put me through I’m hurting and I’m tired of wanting you To call back and unpack What changed your point of view Are you really sorry or just trying To get some sense of closure? Thanks for checking in but I’m just fine Without you taking over It wasn’t really up to me and you But that doesn’t justify what you put me through I’m hurting and I’m tired of wanting you So call one day Just years away When all this has dropped from view
