bored to death

when i was young
thought life would be
a beautiful dream
the way it was on tv
thought it would be
but i'm bored to death
no one is looking
no applause for me
where's the screen?
who counts to three?
i want to be on air
i'm looking backwards
hoping i will find the time
the stars didn't align
the stars didn't align
they say it's time
give up my turn
life through my body
"you'll be better
better than me"
that's what they say

graveyard
04:56
|
|||
|
we are not dead yet
this apartment is a tomb
from tomb to tomb we go
this cemetery is a funeral
an old silent film
from tomb to tomb we go
come find me baby
when i wait in the woods
and you're up to no good
celebrations in the south
and i miss one every day
i'll drink to that death
every dream has a gate
and ill find a way to make it through
i'm a fool for leaving you

no one told me

i was told when i was young
life would be what i wanted it to be
i was told i could change things to get happy
no one told me
can't change the inside
tick tick tick tick tock
take the time back
i was a sold a pretty slice
another chance to roll the dice
i was sold on selling me to get happy
there you go
take the time back
can't change the inside
take me there
back to where?
no one told me
can't change the inside
tick tick tick tick tock
take the time back
there you go
take the time back
no one told me
can't change the inside

spine
04:35
|
|||
|
you want to trace the words
"i love you"
over my spine
like the first time
i pretend to stay asleep
i heard your heart break
from under the sheets
no one should ever fall in love
the landing is never soft enough
no one should ever fall in love
now let me fall back to sleep
you want to relive the time
of our first kiss
you brought me here
hoping i'd miss the way it was
we fell in love
where's my heart beating?
fast asleep
it leaves your insides out
stop swallowing your doubt
i know your guts still hurt
it's time to spit it out

more fun this way
03:54
|
|||
|
your love makes me feel emotive
now we don't to be saved
countdown
you say
"it's more fun this way"
you stay up here
happier that way
it's unbearable
i can't breathe
just follow me
i need more of you almost every day
it's not to keep the pain away

lost forever
04:50
|
|||
|
here we are now
so disappointed
that there is nothing but this
caught between the walls
nothing rises or falls
this is where you go
you said
staring up at the sky
he is lost all the time
but he seems happy to be alive
stay lost forever
i'll find you a tether
then you can never be found
lost isn't always bad
maybe you'll get found
confused makes me alive
stay unsure inside
the in-between intoxicates
the dark is a soft escape

when you leave
04:30
|
|||
|
you find it hard to believe
that i could love you
you can't, you can't see
who's the one that's going to leave?
you'll be good when you're free
from the likes of, the likes of me
you keep saying that i'll be
the one to walk away
but i, i will pay
you're the one that's going to see

prayers
05:12
|
|||
|
still refuse to get out of bed
i prefer to watch the world instead
i can see it all so clear
waiting to disappear
not going to change
i'll say my prayers slowly
so you can hear them clearly
don't tell them that i'm full of lies
full of lies
still refuse to get out of bed
isolated like it's medicine
maybe you're happier than me
can't give up my safety
i'll say my prayers slowly
so you can hear them clearly
keep my secret safe tonight
i know what you're thinking
cause i think it too
can't take my weakness?
don't blame you

feel nothing
03:31
|
|||
|
alive with grief
longing for the chance to show
a little girl how to feel
the way i've never gotta feel
now i'm here longing for what's real
i found a way not to feel anything at all
you don't exist
you never will
i love you regardless
maybe still i could make you real
and get to feel
and now i'm here longing for what's real
i'll find a way to remake your heart just like mine

disappear
04:24
|
|||
|
baby i'm sick of my reflection
baby i'm sick of my intentions
how do i escape from here?
how do i disappear?
dark room inside my head
walk past that hole again
turned around so quick
don't want to stumble
and there's nothing but me
always alone but i'm always running
