Contingency Plan

These feels are limited editions.
I’m just trying to keep up with them.
I think I’m what you’ve been missing out on.
I’m not just a face in the crowd,
I’m a light in the skyline fading out.
I have these beautiful,
That no one ever wants to hear about.
I’ve been picking at scabs.
Guess I have no contingency plan.
These words will last longer than I do...
I’ll scream my head off,
Until you want me around.
I'll scream my head off,
Until you want me,
Until you want me.
I’ll scream my head off,
Until you want me around

I’d struggle to find the meaning
And lost words in my mouth
I can barely articulate it
When I’m feeling all sorts of doubts
Why does this hang over me like a noose sized for my neck
Why is everything so boring to me
If everything feel so foreign it seems
I’d clear my head to think
And let myself just breath
If confidence was ever my key
I’ve been lock outside for a couple of weeks
With these feelings in my stomach
Of what this is really becoming
I’m so damn tired all the time
I spent too many days just coasting by
I think I’m doing better than
I thought I ever was
I’ve had plenty of time here
To figure out my own flaws
I’m just so sick of letting it show (oh no)
My lukewarm feels of being alone (oh no)
I’ve lost the plot to all of this
Like my feelings falling to an abyss
Why does life feels like it’s a lie
When you’re all in on my surprise
I’ll try to play it cool
And maybe be enough for you
I’ve always had trouble not fucking this up
And being in my thoughts was never enough
I think I’m doing better than
I thought I ever was
I’ve have plenty of time here
To figure out my own flaws
I’m just so sick of letting it show (oh no)
My lukewarm feels of being alone (oh no)
I’m Right where I left off
Still feel like I fucked up
And how the world still wants me dead
Life isn’t moving
I’m looking for new things
To occupy my apathetical dread
Most things just go wrong
I tripping on old thoughts
Trying to focus on the why and how
I’ve always been struck
with emotional potluck
So nothing really matters right now

Overgrown

Lukewarm like the shower for your funeral
Second guess my uncertainty
I know things go on without you
That won’t be enough for me
I feel stagnant, overgrown
I’ve been feeling anxious and alone
Spent too much time looking for your ghost
This week has felt real weird
It feels much darker than it did last year
My friends are just so far away
But I’m still here
Waiting
Just stuck in the overgrowth
Around me
I wish I self destructed more calmly
Like a known anomaly
Can I bloom with the things around me
I guess I’ll just have to feel this eventually
It’s all around me
If only you had told me
If only you had told me
That you had been so lonely

Sadness Like A Slow Burn
04:08
|

|
A walk back from the point of no return
It’s always sadness like a slow burn
I hear my name in the screeching of breaks
Reminds me
This will never change
Maybe third time will be my charm
For being who I thought I was
I pass out in my old room
Holding words I wrote for you
Scattered in an a scent minded sulk
Everything looks so clean here
Welcome waking nightmares
That I spit shine as you walk through the door
My wounds feel invisible
like something didn’t heal right
I feels so ethereal
Living in a coal blight
Running out of time
And out of steam
Life full of worry
About everything
Hey!
Can you make some room for me in your grave?
Only stay,
Until these problems start to go away.
This thoughts been sticking around
It makes it easier to digest somehow
I know where you’ll be found
When you’re just another body rotting underground
I dreamt of my death again
Taking swan dives in the shallow end
Hold my breath while I decompose
And make my bones more ethereal.
I’m not saying that I’ve had enough
I’m so tired of giving up
Everything bad just piles up
Why do things not matter enough
And I’ve already accepted
How I’ll always be sad
And I can’t even balance
What feels good and bad
I’m high off morals
You’re drunk off your own faith
I hate the way my mind works
That guys a fucked in place
And I know that I matter
I just wish that mattered to me
I’m not saying that I’ve had enough
I’m so tired of giving up
Everything bad just piles up
Why do things not matter enough

Milquetoast
03:40
|

|
I’m digging out holes in my shoes
To hide all stress I’ve been putting myself through
Feels like it’s never enough
Just closing my eyes
and keep my mouth shut
Wishing that this wasn't my par
Getting so close
I still feel so far
And it’s starting to fall apart
Feel nothing
When happy feels harder
So I don’t care
If you don’t care
You’re so afraid to be
You’re scared to be something
Or be something for everyone
Or mean something to anyone
I Guess that I’m a lost of interest type
I can’t imagine caring for anything rest of my life
But maybe that’s why
I find redundancy in the things that I do
And despondency
In people I used to look up to
But now just see through
I am your godson
I was your sacrificial lamb
Holding on to
Who you still think I am
You’re so afraid to be
You’re scared to be something
Or be something for everyone
Or mean something to anyone
I’m so afraid to be
I’m scared to be something
Or be something for everyone
Or mean something to anyone

Foxhole

I’m getting kind of tired
Of feeling like a bit of a let down
Thinking everyone hates me
Or I’ll probably just leave
Every now and then it feels like I’m getting a shakedown
From a life I’ve tried so hard not to be me
Every day it’s never enough
Wake up and pretend like you’re living it up
And every night I still lie in bed
Thinking of the words that I could’ve said
I’ll scream my head off
Until you want me around
When I crawl into my foxhole
Why do you still gun me down
When I put things in perspective
I guess You don’t need me around
So what that I’m never enough
There’s no reason for me to feel this rough
intrusive thoughts that pay no rent
Don’t belong living inside this head
I-I-I
I don’t feel so alive
I-I Don’t feel
Don’t feel so alive
Running out of time,caffeine
Borrowed nicotine
Choking on whatever you thrown in front of me
Cus this sad alone, looking for a motive
Mindsets still got me going with
I’ll scream my head off
Until you want me around
When I dig myself deep I to these thoughts
Do you care about the frontlines you’ve put up
And hey guess what man, nobody gives a fuck
My emotions are like a deer
They’re going to jump out from anywhere
AND FUCK THINGS UP
I-I-I
I don’t feel so alive
I-I Don’t feel
Don’t feel so alive
I'm the phantom in the crowd of shadows
The leader of the vacant parade and
If I don't yell no one will listen
But I can't speak up, too afraid to glisten
I'm the phantom in the crowd of shadows
the monument I've made too common and
I'm standing at your unmarked grave.
