Things I Don't Say
02:44

did my best to sweep it all out of the door
I’m pretending its clean but its all an act
cuz each time i think its dry the water comes back
i try to spend each morning in the shade
walk among the gloom that rests within these graves
pick up the keys to the car still got some gas
lost my grip on perception but its all coming
so i’ll call you on the drive home
when you want to talk the most
force myself to tell you how I’m feeling
without hanging up the phone
its a freedom that i always seem to forget
cuz its the things that i don’t say i always forget
bought myself some dinner at a truck stop
the hostess smiled while i was drawing on the placemat
if angels are real they’re pouring coffee on the highway
I woke up in the grass smoking blacks behind a cafe
cursing in the hardware aisle and trying to leave the store
but the clerk wants to see whats in my bag
what the fuck would i be stealing for

Chamomile

Listen here my dear friend
You say you wanna die again
You say you wanna up and run away
Yet something made you apprehend
I have got a pair of ears
That you can use through the years
And I have got a shoulder for your head
And got a shirt to soak up your tears
It's hard to feel wanted when you are lost
But you know, as well as I know, you're part of me
It's hard to feel loved when in despair
But you know, as far as I know, you're family
I know you've got a heavy heart
It's been broken since the start
I know you think the pain will never end
But you have made it through the toughest part
Well do you got a place to stay
We can sleep in for the rest of the day
We'll wake up at noon and drink chamomile
And everything will be okay
It's hard to feel wanted when you are lost
But you know, as well as I know, you're part of me
It's hard to feel loved when in despair
But you know, as far as I know, you're family

Oh Well (ZeroAtBest)

I wish i was beautiful like the other boys
I wish that i was so self assured
i wish my writing was better
God I wish my name wasn’t trevor
Oh Well, Oh well
& I know that in life I was dealt a shitty hand
not making an excuse I’m just calling it straight
And you can say that thats so sad &I can say well thats too bad
Oh well, Oh well.
I wish i was beautiful like the other boys
I wish that i wasn’t insecure
i wish that my voice was better
who the fuck name their kid trevor
oh well, oh well

I took your photograph
You didn't notice 'cuz I had taken it fast
And I knew I didn't have a single picture of you
You played on my guitar
In my house on the day I knew that you would drift afar
And I'm sure you knew I knew, I was just happy you were here
I flip through pictures of mine
Right before I go to bed, makes me feel unstuck in time
Maybe they will come and bring me way back there
I have got a lot left to unpack
I had a dream you were coming back
I heard every word you said
Resonate inside my head
I have got a lot left to unpack
I had a dream you were coming back
I made my bed then cleared the floor
So you could walk right through the door
Now I'm cleaning my whole room
Because I thought you would be here soon
Then I stood up and looked away
As if I'd see you again someday
I've got a lot left to unpack
I had a dream you were coming back

Straighten My Spine
03:55
|
|||
I’ve got a blue face. A round one.
A neck as big as a tree trunk i look horrible
my body feels swollen I’m a bloated corpse
unburied, unbowed, invisible
i freeze my sick in paint
the imagery takes it away
won’t you be a comfort
but only if you want to
I’m looking for a place to rest my head
hopefully on your shoulder
i’ll be okay, i’ll be fine
Just trying to make sense of the time
Straighten my spine
yeah I’ll be fine.
I’ll be fine
Sitting in the bathtub cradle a cigarette
i watch ya take off your face
my skin itches and burns
turn on the shower head and soak my clothes
baptism in the morning so the good lords knows
I’m coming home
And i trap disease in sound waves
the melody takes it away
won’t you be a comfort
but only if you want to
I’m looking for a place to rest my head
hopefully on your shoulder
i’ll be okay, i’ll be fine
Just trying to make sense of the time
Straighten my spine
yeah I’ll be fine.
I’ll be fine

Immobilized
03:36
|
|||
I get home from work and I just crash into my bed
Where I will waste my day feeling like I'm fucking dead
When I would much prefer to come and crash into your arms
Where I would float half awake
I'll arise nearly quarter after eight
Where I will sweat and shake and try to leave this place I lie
But then I can't seem to find the strength to move at all
And then I find I'm immobilized
I spend all night feeling sorry for myself
And how I do nothing to try and get myself some help
So I just sit all alone and wonder where my life will go
And then I find I'm immobilized
And you told me once that I have an artist's drive
And I really needed that, yeah it caught me by surprise
And I think it kind of flickers, it goes on and on and off
Yeah you have a way with words, with your speaking voice so soft
Yeah you have a way with words, with your speaking voice so soft
