isnt it obvious
or did you never expect this much
isnt this serious
or can we put it off til lunch
this isnt what you want
but you suggested it just last month
i guess you can change your mind
just with a little more warning next time
if there isnt a next time
then just keep me in mind
when youre telling off the next guy
i hope youre really kind
isnt it obvious
its all my fault im oblivious
it was so serious
but now im stuck in oblivion
when im just a civilian
on your city street
please just ignore me
ive been trying to leave
when im just a civilian
on your city street
please just walk past me
ive been trying to leave

dream loudly
01:55
|
|||
|
falling forward into wonder
what to think about I wonder
falling backward falling under
what to cling on to asunder
folded up inside a soft space
dreaming loud about a soft face
folded under waterfalls
dreaming loudly or not at all

i lost my face
01:41
|
|||
|
i lost my way
i lost my face
i trust away
an instant fate
and in a way
i cant erase
what i can say
with ease and grace
whats done is done
i lost my face
an even trade
i lost my face

coconspire
03:42
|
|||
|
in that moment I was overcome
by my desire to be someone
other than the one I had become
but I grew out of that said so long
in the awful yawning dawn
found what I needed all along
found a way to fall in line
but idk if I have time this time
am I the builder
or am I the building
am I under construction
while I’m not singing
am i the builder
or could i be building
am i part of construction
or just a separate being
in that moment I was overdone
overwhelmed and ready to move on
from the sight of all the sand and sun
i couldn’t help but feel on the run
am I the horse
or am I the rider
am I maybe both
can they co-conspire
am i the horse
or am i the cowboy
am i maybe both
can they co-conspire

cant do it again
02:09

“I can’t do it again”
but then I pick it up and do it again
i really miss my friends
but I know that soon i'll see em again
i’m a little pen
all out of ink and I’m feeling spent
im in a little pen
all out of options and I’m all pent in
i can’t do it again
i said knowing what I’d do then
i feel the wrong way around
going nowhere least I know where it ends
i can’t feel it again
i can’t even remember when
i wanted to recognize
the patterns flowing outside all the time
it should really be more exciting but it’s fine
i could be a bit more exciting but I’m kind

wish
02:00
|
|||
|
i purse my lips and wish
for something good to persist
if its just a wish
i dont think itll fix
whats wrong but its worth a shot
wishes and prayers wont hurt a lot
i fold my fists into one
and count the stars every one
until my reckoning comes
until im already gone
and im not sure if a wish
will ever come close to fixing
all the ways that i missed
out on all of what u thought i shouldnt
