Koi Pond 05:49
I can’t believe that it’s yogurt Maybe it’s make believe But I’ve been seeing double lately I can’t believe that it’s over I’m preaching to myself That I don’t need no one else Feeling micromanaged All my actions put under your microscope Your watchful eye draining me of all my hope Feeling hella damaged At the butt-end of this cruel-ass joke The shot I took hit me in my ego See you later to the creases in my brain Ironed out my issues yet I still feel the same Slipping down the spiral’s easy so I try to refrain And I guess I’d like to feel less empty But you can’t have purpose without pain You can’t choose who you fall in love with You can’t choose to fall in love You can’t choose to fall out of it Bite your tongue when you’ve had enough Feeling like a waste of life And I should just give up My teary eyes the vital sign That I’ve had enough Say goodbye to your grievance and your pain Fighting through its concentration in my veins Slipping down the spiral’s easy so I try to refrain And I guess I’d like to feel less empty But you can’t have purpose without pain Make your peace with the beast you cannot tame Lock the door throw the key protect our name Slipping down the spiral’s easy so I try to refrain And I guess I’d like to feel less empty But you can’t have purpose without pain Why am I trying Why am I still putting up with this bullshit Why am I crying Why am I having such a hard time Why am I trying Why am I still putting up with this bullshit Why am I crying When I know I can easily get out of this

Crona's Song 05:24
Taking off my jacket Taking off my shoes Oh, Crona Wanna get some sleep But I can’t ‘cause of you Oh, Crona Taking off my jacket Taking off my shoes Oh, Crona Wanna get some sleep But I can’t ‘cause of you Oh, Crona

Grass Sword 03:18
I can’t sleep Too scared to dream Might sip some tea Play games on my PC This nightmare Is a waking dream These visions of mine Are not what they seem It’s fight-o-clock with the spear bear I’ve lost my sword this is unfair You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword They call me bad foot money When I step in the street Gotta get those money bags As I wake up from my dream I’ve lost my hero streak Can’t remember a good deed I’ll get your husband’s head back And help a friend in need It’s fight-o-clock with the spear bear I’ve lost my sword this is unfair You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword

I mean hell it’s like you’re dead An unlocked door an open bed And even if all I had Was just a crack in the window Of what’s going on in your head Maybe I could understand Why it’s so hard for you to part With the hand that you’ve been dealt I mean I’m sure you’ve tried But you can’t do it by yourself So move away if you think it helps Be surrounded but by yourself Hold your tongue on the last word All this shit is just absurd So fucking what it’s been some years Is it worth your goddamn tears Find the time to make sure it’s fine But when it’s fixed you get left behind Just because I don’t like all of your choices Doesn’t mean I don’t love you I’m feeling blessed to be left out of the loop for so long I’m feeling desperate I don’t like this damn song Fear of fighting with those with unconditioned love It feels like zipping up a coat while wearing gloves (It’s hard) Can you hear it beat it’s not that strong ‘Til death do us part I hope it doesn’t take that long I was with you but now you’re gone All these issues you can’t be wrong I was with you but now you’re gone All these issues you can’t be wrong So come back home if you’re not too far gone Introduced to me what I could not have seen Being reprogrammed to hate myself So come back home if you’re not too far gone Introduced to me what I could not have seen Being reprogrammed to hate myself I saw what happened I know how it goes So I step back play Switzerland The middle of the road I didn’t want to have to burn that bridge And end up just like her But it’s over now for you it’s all worked out So I say let that fucker burn

Why Bother 04:18
After all the time I’ve wasted Trying to get by I’ve found the things that I need Have been here the whole time This is all or nothing I can’t be just a friend Like pineapple on pizza Some things just don’t blend After all the time you’ve wasted Misplacing your problems You’re the cause of all of them So why can’t you solve them And even when you could’ve spoke You remained silent You’ve defined the fine line Between love and violence Why do I even bother Where would I even start How can I explain this to you Who do you think you are Where is this even going When will it fall apart Trusting you was my decision I made with broken bones Sticks and stones caused this condition Oh my fuck I should have known From where we were to where we are I’ve learned to like the latter Your words hold no weight When the fight doesn’t matter These thoughts inside of my head Are starting to burn Of all the things I’ve had to change Now it’s your turn Why do I even bother Where would I even start How can I explain this to you Who do you think you are Where is this even going When will it fall apart Trusting you was my decision I made with broken bones Sticks and stones caused this condition Oh my fuck I should have known

It’s not your say I like it this way We’re not sure what’s to come tomorrow So let me live out today Sometimes I wonder if I could say To you I love you since you burn my bouquets This isn’t a democracy It’s all fair to you but not for me You cast your vote and then you leave You are an alien you’re overseas I know you don’t believe in me I know you don’t believe in us or me But can’t you try to see That what we have is meant to be We’re here to stay In the same way That you and her have stuck it out For several decades Sometimes I wonder if I could say To you I love you since you burn my bouquets Why can’t you just support me Why can’t you just trust me this once Can’t you just support me Why can’t you just support this love Can’t you just support me Why can’t you just trust me this once Can’t you just support me Support this love Support this love Support this love Support this love Support this love ‘Cause you are you and I am me I wish we wouldn’t fight ‘cause we’re family It’s clear to see you can’t stop being you And I to you can’t stop being stupid I know the risks I know the drive I’ve got the funds and I’ve got the time But you can’t seem to accept that I’ve Got something I will live to fight for It’s not your say I like it this way We’re not sure what’s to come tomorrow So let me live out today Sometimes I wonder if I could say To you I love you since you burn my bouquets I love you still I share your blood Give you respect Which to me you give none

I feel everything But eventually I feel nothing I feel everything But eventually I feel nothing again Climb the mountaintop Feel the pressure drop And my ears begin to pop Nosedive into the next life Headfirst into the riptide My face hurts from smiling My eyes burn from staring at the screen My lungs ache from breathing so heavily What's this feeling so heavenly After the fall I'm coming back Try my best to stay on track So I let the fucking train run me over I feel everything But eventually I feel nothing I feel everything But eventually I feel nothing again Climb the mountaintop Feel the pressure drop And my ears begin to pop Nosedive into the next life Headfirst into the riptide Listen close the CD skips Break it in half it's a permanent fix Try to save the Princess Peach Dumb-ass turtle keeps her out of reach All my friends act like they're dead Let their emotions fuck with their head I cry in the face of adversity I laugh in the face of death I crumble if you get too close to me And struggle to catch my breath Paint it yellow Gum on the window Screaming oh hell no I feel everything But eventually I feel nothing I feel everything But eventually I feel nothing again

I’m used to the wool over my eyes Another fucking problem in disguise Close up the matchbook soak up the gas Cross your fingers and take it back It’s just an act Goddamnit you’re not gonna die You drink enough water You’re gonna be fine Let’s take a roadtrip to my garage My dad’s unhappy we trashed the yard There’s a ladder on the lawn There’s a bottle by the bush There’s a shoe up in the tree I guess that’s all it took Let’s take a roadtrip to somewhere far Let’s pile into someone’s car Splashing in the water Gasping for air Barely make it to the surface Just glad that we are there Goddamnit you’re not gonna die You drink enough water You’re gonna be fine Take me away Away from this mundane I’ve been lost before But I always find my way Take me away Away from this mundane I’ve been lost before But I always find my way Back to you Back to you Back to you Back to you I’m used to the wool over my eyes Another fucking problem in disguise

Fuck this melancholy Fuck this mood I wanna be less like me And more like you Another night up in my room I wish that I could talk to you I don’t have anything to say Since I’ve wasted my whole day away I’ve always been competitive I’ve always gotta be the best at it I find it hard to support my friends When I’ll never be as good as them So I’ll stay up on the internet Stuck on youtube clips and reddit You know I won’t wake up ‘til late Missing the exam that I had to take My parents ask if I’m depressed I’m finding it hard to express That although I’m not feeling my best For the past decade I’ve been used to it Fuck this melancholy Fuck this mood I wanna be less like me And more like you Fuck this melancholy Fuck this mood I wanna be less like me And more like you Last night I dreamt of you again Woke up alone in my bed Last night I drove numb again The wind made me feel less dead Fuck this melancholy Fuck this mood I wanna be less like me And more like you Fuck this melancholy Fuck this mood I wanna be less like me And more like you Fuck this melancholy Fuck this mood I wanna be less like me And more like you

Pt. 2 02:28
I wonder why I have to try But in my mind a changing tide Right at five to my surprise The sun will rise with sherbet skies Riding home with gumball skies I’m not alone ‘cause you’re by my side Coffee’s sublime I’m getting high I’ll start to fly right through time Crusty Eyes Butterflies Say goodbye Start to drive Crusty Eyes Butterflies Say goodbye Start to drive I don’t want to leave but I’ve got to go I promised safety on icy roads I start to slip to and fro A spin a twist and into snow Both of us had rattled bones Almost shook my way into a ghost Life and death weren’t juxtaposed Polarred worlds on just one road Crusty Eyes Butterflies Say goodbye Start to drive Crusty Eyes Butterflies Say goodbye Start to drive Crusty Eyes (Fuck this melancholy) Butterflies (Fuck this mood) Say goodbye (I wanna be less like me) Start to drive (And more like you)
