sometimes my fingertips just arent good enough textures feel better when i brush them against my lips and i prefer my tea in the summer in air conditioned rooms where the heat and humidity escapes me i think i see the world a little differently train tracks and jet packs are the soundtrack of my dreams i’m a little too affected by what i see on tv But my friends hang on my wall to remind me that i am a subject of humanity Am a chapter of reality and i’m still tryna wrap my head around it i’ve told my friends i dont think i’ll make it to 30 i’m not suicidal i just dont think it exists i have this problem where if i can’t imagine it i won’t do it and sorry mum but i can’t imagine having kids oh i think i see things differently the best thing about that kiss was the look on his face and the best wine i’ve ever had was a four dollar bottle of gossips but i play board games with my friends and they remind me that I am subject to them loving me am a chapter in our legacy and i’m still tryna wrap my head around it i don’t know why people live and at this point i’m too scared to ask too many nights of thinking of death i hope this feeling doesn’t last i don’t know why people live and at this point i’m too scared to ask too many nights of staring at the ceiling i hope this feeling doesn't last

What if we run out of things to say Cause I’ve tied my tongue to the back of your face I guess it wouldn’t be too bad to cut it off Cause if I can’t talk to you I’d rather not talk at all Why’d you keep calling In the middle of the day When all I talk about is how I’m scared of change Well when you get to the crux of it I don’t get why you say I’m your favourite phone call But I’ll believe it when I see it Maybe God is racist to aliens And we haven’t seen any because She hates them I spend too much time pondering the sky And you never try to tie me back down What if we run out of things to do Maybe one day we’ll grow tired of my room But I tell you Even when you’re against yourself My hands fit your hands perfectly Maybe I’m just sitting here waiting for you To change your mind Because to be alive is to be awake And these days darling I am just so tired Good dreams are the ones that sting And every year is an abstract thing And your words seem to light the dim I’ll believe it when I see it

Glue 04:25
loneliness comes quick and thick at night punctures my lungs and holds me ‘til im sick with it i just wanna be behind your eyes be the light i wanna be what makes your face light up but you won’t even look at me i like you please don’t leave me as number two i know our moments have been too few i like you please don’t leave me as number two let me wrap up your heart and stick it to mine with glue oh i just wish you’d let me kiss you between the eyes hold my hand feel my love til you’re sick with it someone once told me i’m the first girlfriend type but let me be your first, last, only lady let me keep you up at night i like you please don’t leave me as number two i know our moments have been too few i like you please don’t leave me as number two let me wrap up your heart and stick it to mine with glue has anybody told you that you’re the prettiest girl in the world i’m gonna tell you i want us to be together You and i are meant to be like arts & crafts get stuck with me compare our landscapes i want to see how our hands fit together be with me i like you please don’t leave me as number two i know our moments have been too few i like you please don’t leave me as number two let me wrap up your heart and stick it to mine with glue

do you ever feel like its all been made for you i can’t imagine needing to impress anyone but you are you the somebody who’ll walk the long way with me i dont know where we’re going but i like walking unknown streets i’ll stare at your cheeks for a while and as you enjoy the view i will too when shadows shift from black to blue and oxygen burns my throat cut to me laying in my room yearning to hold you dont you choke how would your hips feel in my hands wanna get too close and still before we kiss nothing here but the sound of my fan tangled in the white noise and tension of this are you the somebody who’ll walk the long way with me I don't know where we’re going but i like wandering unknown streets i’ll stare at your cheeks for a while while you enjoy the view i will too

i think im in love with you no not the friendship kind and it's frustrating there's always a them and Never a me on your mind cant say i'm interested in liberation but validation might be nice not sure if you know but you turn the cogs behind my eyes one day i’m going to explode and tell you everything i’ll drive to your road, leave my heart with the mail, and go home And although we never mention it dont think i’ve forgotten what happened with us years ago spilled my guts in the front seat at 4am why are all my love songs about you one day i’m going to explode and tell you everything i’ll drive to your road leave my heart with the mail and go home

Lately 04:05
lately i’ve been remembering the way you held me in my dark room lately i’ve been remembering the way your face felt pressed against mine and i dont miss you i just miss how that felt i couldnt miss you you werent really anything else to me lately i’ve been reading romance novels and wondering if if i’ll ever find someone so consuming lately i’ve been considering coming out to my family but they wouldnt see me like you did lately i’ve been missing long walks on the beach long drives where you couldnt stop looking at me lately i’ve been missing phone calls for hours this feeling crushing me and i dont miss you i just really miss how that felt and i might miss you if you didnt turn out like everyone else no i couldnt miss you i just miss the fact that you wanted to hold my hand maybe i miss you maybe i do lately i’ve been missing you

Aftermath 02:49
a cough drop coloured day dream wont let me sleep i've been wrapped up and used coughed out and bruised got blisters on my hands and feet from when i crawled into you you spat out an easy lie and now here i cry trying not to think about us two but what’s it to you butterscotch flavoured nightmare i feel as though i'm there i know your fingers on my hips and your lips upon my lips felt a fire on my tongue and in the air but i gotta say i'm scared because my demons just woke up and i need your help a lot And i find myself with handfuls of my hair oh you dont even care dont think you regret it no i dont think you'll ever apologize and now in the aftermath of it i sink in pools the colour of your eyes but i wont drown I know it’s hard but i wont let myself drown in you bittersweet scandal, loose ends how do i tie them up we'll try burning at the fray i cant let you slip away do u ever think that maybe we fucked up everything that we had I guess you were never really mine and i barely saw inside and now i wish i never had

Radiators 03:50
I want to know the feeling of never being close enough the softest cheeks could sleep on mine and our fingers dance intertwined i’d know your mothers name and hopefully she’d like mine our proximity couldn’t be defined but rain keeps falling and my lungs feel empty when no ones here I'd say lets get stuck in a broken down elevator Fifteen floors up and no one around to save us I would stay relaxed for hours getting to know your mind I could give you all my time But rain keeps falling and my lungs feel empty and no ones here radiators don’t do shit anymore i need skin on skin to keep me warm I need someone to not keep their hands off me Slip into my cracks, keep me from shuddering And love definitely tastes as sweet As the romantic made it seem When the world ends baby i want you to stay with me because rain keeps falling and my lungs feel empty and no ones here radiators don't do shit anymore i need skin on skin to keep me warm When the world ends baby I want you to stay with me And Love definitely tastes as sweet as the romantic made it seem So when the world ends baby i want you to stay with me

About You 04:52
my eyes are carrying the moon the whole world asleep in a sea of blacky blue I'll have a coffee or two the lights are softer at four am than when i’m with you my legs are cold but i’ll keep my fan on summers on its way with heat unheard of that heat is loud, but the night is silent in its wisdom i’ll probably fall asleep when the sun comes up but about you i feel like i have something to say but my tongue won’t form it just enjoy yourself anyway i dont know if, i’ll make it to tomorrow day sometimes silence is my best friend but tonight i hear the whispers and i want it to end cant remember the last book i read dont let my brain turn to mush oh you’re my only friend i give you love and in return i’m confused how many times do i have to say i wish i never kissed you history has been my teacher but i havent been listening i wish i wasn’t writing this song but i wish there wasn’t anything wrong with us

Final Words 02:20
i cant remember what it felt like now but when i feel it i know lying in my bed for days constantly feeling like i’ll throw up and i can’t eat i wish i had the self control to stay offline people keep tweeting things that trigger me i hate my timeline i’ve muted generic words like death I tell myself just keep trying to rest I can't imagine how much i bore my friends “Oh no i can't see you i have shaking hands!” and coffee makes me sick but i’ll drink it anyway I don't even like how it tastes yeah i’m a dumbass by the way what even is there to say the feeling stayed but it changed i know that i dont feel the same and i dont know why but i’m glad that im alive
