Thinking/ 01:39
I don’t think you have to hate me For what I’ve done to you I already feel the same way Lord knows I do There was a time when we would marry When we were one in the same And now we rarely see each other And it’s such a shame So take my pictures off the wall You don’t need them now And I’ll leave the engine running Run it into the ground These days I don’t find myself thinking of you Cause I spend less time alone But sometimes I still find myself thinkin’ of you When I spend some time alone

Black 03:29
Hand me back I can’t Relax at night Lay awake I’m sweating Through my sheets if only I could see why it’s on me To know what’s best for me And I don’t do much when I’m lonely Assuming you know me I’m losing my mind it’s alright It’s alright it’s alright Say it kind Say it Slow Don’t waste my time I always know You’re sadder than most days It fades to the back When they hear you say I’m alright I’m Okay While I’m dressed in Black

Drowning 04:59
I’ve been noticing you notice all the dust in the air Slowly fall, but hardly ever going anywhere Sing it back to me, so I feel it in my skin, in my bones I repeat it, but you know it hardly ever shows Try another day to spend more time outside the house I’m not done till you sit with me I’m not done till you see me In all my dreams I’ve been drowning Or you don’t want to see me Waves break and start receding Over and Over Feeling Sober again I’ve been sitting right down thinking quietly at how I’ll figure me out Pulling at the root, I don’t think I wanna do it, I don’t wanna find out Well I shoulda known every single seed I’d sewn, but I didn’t give a goddamn Can’t see through the haze, we’ve been smoking every day cause we never settled down Not another day, I don’t think that I can stay cause I don’t settle down If I were you, I would’ve left me Long before I left you I’m wide awake, I think I’m Drowning I couldn't see you I couldn't leave you again Don’t think it too obscene me noticing me notice the girl with gray hair Tried to beat it, cause I know it’s not going anywhere But she could be anyone like the one for me Though I know sometimes you’ve got to let it be But I know sometimes you've got to go and see

Aubrey Glen 04:23
I’m back again Packing off for Oregon I’m thinking clearer now And if you want to tag along I’ll learn all your favorite songs Like Prince and Pumpkins with snare On two and four You’ve heard it all before You don’t wanna hear it anymore I’m not gonna make you stay But I won’t ask you to leave with me Cause when I’m gone, I’m going for good This time for good This time for good This time for good I know I have to go I’m dying here I’m not dying here So why not go If you’ve got something to show I’m not convinced you're smarter Since the rest have gone so farther Than you
5.
Lucy 03:46
You remember when we did LSD? I fell in love with you, did you fall for me? My heart’s been breakin’ every day I spend without you A look at myself will go to waste When I spend my time looking on your grace I’ll wake beside you every day Let trouble pass on as it may I don’t want to be over you But if you're gone what can I do Days turn to months and they don't care Whether or not we breathe the same air And who’s to say what’s been real When all I know is what I feel It’s not too late to stay in hell Where I can’t stand to look at myself If I’m still here in four more years Then it’s on me if I can’t see That no drug can last me through the night And nothing outside you turns your wrong right
6.
Same Clothes 04:38
Same clothes every day Well I guess I look okay But I haven't washed my hair It’s getting harder to care It’s the second month of May And I couldn't tell you the day They all bleed into one another Into one another Walking streets are paved with trash Go outside but it’s raining ash Feeling broken in The beat-down sense of the word Can’t love someone else While you still hate yourself I tried to beat it But I keep getting eaten alive Alive Alive Walk all night, still can’t find my path Paralyzed over simple tasks Feeling broken-in The beat down sense of the word Feeling broken-in The beat down sense of the word Same clothes every day Same clothes every day
7.
Afternoon 04:31
Stay up just to leave too soon Hangin’ with the Afternoon Tell me what’s wrong with me Open my eyes If you would still talk to me Tell me everything you think of me Then I’d be sure to be worth your time Golden, oldest, only child See the rock goes rolling back Always was a lonely child It’s not too hard to take me back You’ve got two kids, you’re still a child And I still hope you call me back You make me feel like I’m Familiarly out of place I love your worn, sun-damaged face But I hate this town I hate this place Except its sound Except its grace Fan’s been broken seven days I’m sweatin’ out my hands Dad tells me I lost my way Sittin’ in his photograph I’m like to go insane Tellin’ you what I don’t say I know we’re done here You’ve made that much clear I was told I could wait, but I don’t think that I can Can’t account for the things you don't understand You see clear skies when I only see the blues Who could want me as much as I want you I was told I could wait, but I don’t think that I can Can’t account for the things you don't understand You see clear skies when I only see the blues Who could want me as much as I want you You see clear skies when I only see the blues Who could want me as much as I want you

Green 05:46
I don’t know if I can change your mind or mine But my kind of girl for my time Comes around just once or twice in a lifetime Maybe you’ll see me when you’ve forgotten my face Now you can’t complain we never left my place A lesson overstayed a welcome I never gave My two eyes can see through you and me You're tied to my heart Like I’m tied to yours Maybe we’ve been cursed Sun-damaged goods Carried with you all day Let’s run for the woods To hide our skin from the rays Cause I don’t wanna get cancer I wish I had an answer for you Sad like popped balloons At a party that’s ended too soon Darling, it’s no use To keep working towards Green grass and last days While you're holding on to old ways Progressing from the mezzanine Finding something new to mean I wish there was some other way That I could stay with you a while But you could hear me count the days Every year and every mile
9.
/Of You 01:19
Days and months will turn to years And scars all fade We’ll each learn to love our lives Cause that’s the choice we’ve made But forever I will know you Like no one else can And you’ll forever be the woman That made this man These days I don't find myself thinking of you Cause I spend less time alone But sometimes I still find myself thinking of you When I spend some time thinking of you And I spend more time alone
