scratches 03:10

snow 01:32
paper thin walls don’t think i can’t hear you cry in yr own arms don’t think i can take it falling asleep when the sun rises with i could climb over the horizon now
6.
and i've been laying here just thinking i might die and i’ve been breathing now just one breath at a time and i can’t think of my life without the thought of you and even if i tried to i’d just collapse if you ever wanted to grow out yr hair it’d look so good i couldn't help but stare the leaves are changing cuz it’s just that time of year and this fading feeling’s somethin i can’t bare and i've been laying here just thinking i might cry it’s just those everyday thoughts that always have to pass by and if you ever wanna know how i'm doing don't ask just assume it’s pretty bad and this year has got to be my lowest i think that i don’t even care and i wish i could spend my whole life with you forever again
7.
wreck 02:11
welcome home yr back now whispering in my ear reminding me of all my greatest fears cuz yr part of me like the sweat on my neck and i'm overwhelmed oh i’m such a wreck waking up today now time for you to crawl out i know that you’ll make me stay at home for another day alone in my room curtains drawn and the lights off too
8.
nocturnal 02:06
2AM once again i hear crickets in my yard i’ll fall asleep in the morning only cuz of yr regards healthy? what’s that? i don't know where to turn thinking, close my eyes i can tell that i’ll burn gently awaken to the sound of dropping rain suddenly petrified; it’s something i can’t explain waiting for now shopping mall lights are down something covered up that wasn’t meant to be found
9.
old pictures 02:36
I think the best when it’s late at night and im all alone 3AM in my room in my head and on my phone and i'm feeling like i miss yr room and i'm starting to dream of sitting cross legged on yr bed eating all day stuck in our heads and nothing can compare to this ya nothing comes close at all and until then i’ll be looking thru our old pictures thinking about how we can’t control the future and everything i do with you has more meaning to me cuz everytime i look at you i feel less lonely
10.
driving you home only one on the road trying to see it’s been dark for hours now saying goodnight i hope that i’ll see you soon falling asleep my eyes are so heavy now and i can’t explain the words that fall between the lines and i wish you know that yr voice is my disguise and i can’t explain to you that it happens all the time and i wish you knew that my thoughts are my demise calling yr phone you always pick up the first ring and i just hope It doesn’t go to voicemail and i don’t know if you wanna stay forever but i won’t ask if you don’t want me to and i can’t explain the words that fall between the lines and i wish you know that yr voice is my disguise and i can’t explain to you that it happens all the time and i wish you knew that my thoughts are my demise

violet 02:20
and i don't mean to take it out on you cuz i know there’s not much that you have done and i don't wanna hear yr sorry just wanna know if you still love me and i don't mean to be distracted I feel so lost like i'm moving backwards and i don't wanna feel this broken just seems like i'll never be fixed
12.
overcast 05:04
i always start our conversations with a simple hello it’s always way too dark when i’m biking home & yr too smart way too smart for me and i’m just not the person who i used to be but yr so cool so much cooler than me and i hate myself so i’ll ask you to agree that we’re we’re heading down we’re heading down we’re heading down on our own petals dropping from yr eyes and flower crowns swallow yr pride and wipe away yr frown and i need to be myself but i hate who i am
