cleanliness is next to godliness a safe place in my mind a tidy house can't care about what i'm doing with my time came to know how low it goes the cups and cans collection's mine weakened ceiling dripping now i'm cussing out the water line my initials in the doorway every birthday is a scratch i'm backed up on my tiptoes "you're growing up so fast" upside down cross the shoulder x my heart and hope to die every day i'm lucky happy joyful i'm alive
2.
see you less and less it's cool if you feel lucky i do too we intersect then don't then intersect again i made my boss into my sponsor my colleagues are my friends your neighbor called said something's going on across the hall it's me losing my mind speak with the voice of three octaves up harmony the holy trinity nicotine beer and weed
3.
speak with the voice of three octaves up harmony the holy trinity nicotine beer and weed i sow the seed forget to reap socks and shoes on at the beach life slurs every time it speaks know there's a god who likes to drink cause they made me they made me speak with the voice of three wisdom strength serenity corner store's made from magnets i'm reversing my polarity but i'm holy i'm holy i turn water into wine and then back again if at home you spurn the sabbath then the work week never ends a curse that keeps me in my basement journals messages id send made my boss into my sponsor and my colleagues are my friends if you hate what you do when you're at home move again and again and again a rolling stone collects no moss but everything it touches is flattened and i cover myself in paper flour water its mache let my body decompose inside and let my form stay okay and talk and do the motions its a proper mannequin of chan dressed to say whatever's working said shit is life empty man? (life slurs every time it speaks there's a god who likes to drink cause they made me in the image of broken glass but when the light hits me just right i'll be right back) in my mind in my life now in yours shattered life death to the process our love is the glass on the shore

the stakes 02:14
burning money buying groceries they're not for me checkout's packed with people piquing my anxiety every day i'm here i'm where i want to be when all i am is what i've done i can be nothing you wanted more than i could take a lifetime living my mistakes it's so surreal the high the stakes i wanted more than i could take
5.
berries go 02:13
stop i'm giving god hell for what i'm not distraction's worth a shot every action born from thought press the key inside my head hold for manual reset blue screen ego death smash the buttons that i can task manager collapse qwerty manifest i'm active in the chat i can type real fast i can posture that the fingers hands arms body soul mind are intact feel fine and never ask for signs to log off and don't come back berries go bad
6.
dial tone 02:59
I got to you before i hurt myself Slow fuse anticipation yeah snuffed right out Beneath your foot but in your hand I looked up and saw a hundred grandiose ways That my life could change Angel staring softly from above Pillow living kindness bubbles up and never pops It’s the life that everybody dreams of I’m grateful that it’s happening to me My back keeps stabbing me Burying my head in a pile of leaves You’re circling a crowd in my sleep I’m all alone at the table Why don’t you sit down and eat? I can’t eat without a screen I draw the dead in my dreams When does a hill become a mountain with creeks and flowing streams? I don’t wanna do this to you Just because I got a dial tone too
7.
keroscene 02:12
So much for my dying wish to be buried in the woods of our backyard Planned decor another deadly kiss as i’m staring through the back of my old car In kerosene You’re drowning me In kerosene You’re slowly drowning me You wear me around How you’re wearing me down While you wear me around Whatcha sad for?
8.
the do-over 03:23
Let's put on our bowling shoes, bolo ties, and fake tattoos You go your way and i’ll meet up with you Handsome devil quick to choose between orange yellow greens and blues Held aloft by helium balloons Cause every time we try we get a little closer And what else are we here for if not to live in the do-over? Feed the feeling Feel the feeling Perfection is impossible you say you know the score But never let that keep you from hope for a better world
9.
burning money buying groceries they're not for me checkout's packed with people piquing my anxiety every day i'm here i'm where i want to be when all i am is what i've done i can be nothing Passed out i can’t keep staying up Walked myself home i’m regretting growing up Ignore another missed text, phone calls Everybody wanna talk I just don’t have it in me
10.
I don’t wanna wake up It’s early in the morning Paper cup of coffee sipping slowly Cream can cut the bitterness you know me only one To find all of this out Twenty-seven’s young I know you know me now I know you know me now Like frost under the ground It always scalds your tongue Burns just like the sun I love you only one I see you in fractions Mornings of the day You move in slow motion Goodbyes are better this way My hands feel so see through Embalmed in LA haze The mornings feel alright It always tastes the same
11.
Everytime the train rocks a rat dies From the front to the back Monkey bars like that guy Pull up park in paradise Rolling hard snake eyes yeah two times Back hand to the back of the door House fire laps burning tread Just gotta go to the store Will you be here when I get back? You don’t need to talk like that (I need to ask alex what he says on the back half something crazy about heads of states heads on stakes)
12.
like i trust the government stop the world stop making sense i found all the clues and i am gathering the evidence i caught the scent i'm on the mend i dipped out to the woods it means i never have to make my rent again caught the feeling: love came to know enough again
13.
you fell in love they raised the tides if you change your mind is it still a lie? starting over's like drawing lines i can keep them straight this time
