The Test
03:26
|

|
I couldn't save my last 10 dollars
I couldn't brave to have weight on my shoulders
And so they say, you forget when you grow older
Will my struggles be worth it if the reward is no longer
But I guess thats the test
Still gotta try to do my best
And so I digress
Been working at getting things in order
Been getting further away from the border
Between doing well and not knowing whether
I'll have enough resources to last until I get another dollar
(When finite's mistaken for infinity
I lose all sensibility)

Nowhere to Go
03:44

Wish there was somewhere i had to be
But im here stuck in fuckin quarantine
I've got nowhere to go
Can't recall what it means to be me
I cant seem to find what motivates me
I've got nowhere to go
How can someone feel alive anymore
When its dangerous business walking outside your front door?
Now I can't breathe
My lungs wheeze
Minds got no peace
And I can't leave
For two weeks

Transposing Sound
02:50
|

|
If I could transpose a sound into a feeling
I'd choose a song to show how I'm dealing
I would put A-Punk on cause I dont wanna feel the blues
When the musics gone there's something wrong with you
Where is your soul?
When the musics gone there's something wrong with you
Whats happened at the core?
Living in this house alone, I did it to myself
Have no one left to blame, my silence didn't help
This isn't self pity
This is me saying if I had only stayed true I wouldn't be paying
Don't keep it inside
You dont have to hide
What you're truly feeling
To the point of it killing your passion for life

Way I'll Go
02:52
|
|||
|
Its finally over but I dont want it to be
Will everything I've learned just come back to haunt me
This weight on my shoulders increasing exponentially
Hold on tight
Don't let go
Of what you need the most
Don't lose hope
Dont lose sight
Of what matters the most
Pursue that with your heart
Thats the way I'll Go
Repeating the mantra
Cause I'll try anything to keep me from losing it
Until I've reached my prosperity
Life's just been processed
I need something real
I have got all the time in the world
Unless I die, thats true
Either way
Its all my time in the world

Casual Addict
03:17
|
|||
|
I dont feel like I need it
But every time I see you take a hit
I become a casual addict
But I dont expect you to give a shit
I'm the one who was asking for it
The angel on my shoulder must be having a fit
Cause I drown out anxiety by getting lit
I'm not fussy you can have your pick
All this stress has made me tick
Now I've become a casual addict
I dont feel like I need it but every time I feel inadequate
I become a casual

Conditioner
02:22
|

|
My Conditioners the same as yours
And when it runs out ill maybe buy more
Too many things to purchase at the store
But my conditioners the same as yours
I'd really like to hear your meaning
But why would I ask if I could say the same thing
My brain is starting to give me a ring
I'd really like to hear your meaning
My best friend my worst enemy
Someone I try to hate but love instinctively
We all have this one person
Learning that ain't always fun
Everyone has a sword in their basement and a gun by their side
The trick between the two determines how you take the ride

Line
02:46
|
|||
|
Hard to get to know impossible to forget
Memories that will not fade away
Feeling torn apart by what I want and what I'll just regret
Wanted you back but there's too much at stake
Gotta account for more than what I feel
Are you really the one who is meant to be mine?
No, we're too far apart for it to be real
No matter what you'll be in my heart
Even as a friend
You'll be in my heart

Not Again
03:22
|
|||
|
We're chasing rabbits going further down the hole
Listing after madness to fill the null
In a time of desperation you ask me can we do this once more
I have no more inspiration to justify what has just become a chore
Not again
We're creatures of our habits
Appetites are never full
When hearts are filled with sadness how do you feel whole?
There was a time when I panicked
But now im calmed by its pull
All the heights that I've missed
This lifestyle has taken its toll

Melancholy
03:17
|
|||
|
Stuck in a rut but I know I can't give up
Tempted to stay in bed all day
But I know that won't help with this pain
Not quite sure where this is coming from
I've dealt with worse than this
Maybe I'm feeling sorry for myself
I know there will be happiness
I've been feeling isolated but there's no one left to blame
I cant be socially sedated
Communication works both ways
All in all I've been feeling down
But that is alright
If I keep on working at it
I will win this fight
