what i knew i forgot
when i got to the parking lot
it hit me but then it vanished
miss me with that shit
i dont know what i dont know
ill wait for endless days
for something to happen
but nothing will and nothings ever gonna change
even when flowers grow out of my face
and nothing remains
everything is the same
sure does not feel smart
when i cant seem to start
and i should but i dont care
i know somethings out there
waiting for me
ill wait for endless days
if thats what it will take
whats different now
has it been like this always
it all starts to feel like its the same slightly rearranged
ill wait for endless days
for something to happen
but nothing will and nothings ever gonna change
long after i deteriorate
its not gonna change

mind reads null
i dont wanna know
i dont wanna know
but feels full
gonna overflow
gonna overflow
reaching capacity
filling all the empty seats where you dont wanna be
memory delete
force a vacancy
test elasticity
begging to breach and breed discontinuity
memory delete
forcibly repeat
memory delete
force a vacancy
mind reads null
i dont wanna know
i dont wanna know
but feels full
gonna overflow
gonna overflow
begin muscle atrophy
pull apart everything towards everything on a tractor beam

be what you can
so dont meet their demands
who gives a damn
you are what you am
out from the middle its easy to see
but is it actually
all of the time
doesnt seem like its alright
but all youve ever known
isnt just what youve been shown
dig through the inside
its there it would seem
but is it actually
out from the middle its easy to see
but is it actually
all the time doesnt seem like its alright doesnt seem like all the time doesnt seem like its alright doesnt seem like all the time doesnt seem like its alright doesnt seem like all the time doesnt seem like its alright doesnt seem like all the time doesnt seem like its alright doesnt seem like all the time doesnt seem like its alright doesnt seem like all the time doesnt seem like its alright doesnt seem like all the time doesnt seem like its alright

Trapezoid
05:20
|

hypnotized by the glow bisected by the windshield
from green to yellow
seem to have hit a forcefield
just cant bridge the gap
the distance is getting longer
now youve got to act or youre not gonna get so far
it looks like so far youre not gonna go
and it looks like so far
stick with what you know
right trapezoid extending out towards the front
where it meets a point
and it seems like it goes so far
and it looks like so far
you dont know
dont know
youll know when you know
you know

shut up a bunch
not gonna lie
you make it easy
dont need to try
step back
relax
youre not gonna die
thanks for calling what can i do
to best assist you
i hope you dont do
what youre gonna do
where is the owner of you
are they aware
is it too soon for me to leave
when is my turn
i wanna be next in line
its eluding me
where is the owner of you
are you aware
youre not going to die
youre not going to die
you are not gonna die
you are not gonna die

just blame it all on stupid luck
hard to even give a fuck
about the cause of your decline
too much weight all the time
until you finally gave in to gravity
the roots of the trees
higher in the sky than the leaves
gets a little harder to breathe
but i still breathe when i feel the need
every time i leave the state
things i know evaporate
dont know what causes the effect
soon there will be nothing left
there does not seem to be any one enemy
the roots of the trees
higher in the sky than the leaves
gets a little harder to breathe
but i still breathe

no remains anywhere
was never here
growing pains
like a free hand
left no trace
its not all but its some
cant just divide by one
no change of fortune now
loose change not helping out
no resolve
or not the way i would have thought
bittersweet
and caffeinated
and jittery
its not all but its some
cant justify reasons
no change of fortune now
loose change not helping out
youre not my world and never were
youre not my world and never were
youre not my world and never were
youre not my world and never were
its not all but its some
cant just divide by one
no change of fortune now
loose change not helping out

Gimme
04:50
|

|
eat and sleep all day and night
do what you want
do what youd like
youve got it figured out
you want to go outside
want to be friends and to be alive
when all i want is time
its all i ask of you
so gimme time
it feels like youre still at home
wish i was there
wish i had known
there are things i should have done and should have said
but its not like itd change anything
they cant turn back time
its all i ask of you
so gimme time
why did i have to hear the truth
i prefer the lie
time is all i ask of you so gimme time
time is all i ask of you so gimme time

the days i thought were gone are just beginning
at least thats what i think i felt last night
the names that i forgot i am remembering
but now those names are paired with different mouths
and noses and eyes
and everything is just a repeat
of everything i already know
and every line is just a reread
of everything i already wrote
i learned to question my acceleration
it sure does look a lot like the same place
it sure feels like a similar location
ive learned to second guess my walking pace
and its just a repeat of everything i know
and it just feels so familiar
its no surprise
no miracle
and at least the worst i know is the worst ive known
as far as i can tell there is no difference
and as far as i can tell i should not care
that everything is just a repeat of everything i already know that everything is just a repeat of everything i already know that everything is just a repeat of everything i already know that everything is just a repeat of everything i already know
and at least the worst i know is the worst ive known
