i'm not committing to speaking up
i'll stick to biting the edge of my tongue
i'm not admitting to choking up
my heart is pounding against my lungs
i've got a problem inside my skull
taking on water through my port-side hull
this ship is sinking into the gulf
my colors fading washed out & dull
forgetting everything i know
that pushed against the ebb and flow
like the darkness felt
this is the sound letting go

i wish i was there
and i wasn't scared
and my hands weren't shaking
i wish i didn't care that you came here with someone else
it hung in the air
the way you would stare
you've got my attention
it seems you don't care that i came here with someone else
i know that i'm not alone
but god do i feel like it
i've got no chance on my own
but it looks like that's where i'm at
i just want to feel wanted
is that too much to ask
have i been getting in my own way
am i ignoring the facts
i saw you from across the room
but i have nothing to say to you
i'm pining to get back home
where i can get so stoned
i'll enter the twilight zone
as i'm sucked into my phone
don't mind me silently watching as you're
moving on to someone else
making plans with someone else
going out with someone else
making eyes at someone else
holding hands with someone else
making out with someone else
moving in with someone else
making love to someone else
falling in love with some else
i'll be here beside myself

pushing at the hinges

i'm sorry i kissed your cheek
but we've been holding hands under the blanket for an hour or two
i'm sorry i misread things
during that last band on the couch with you in a strangers living room
it's okay if we change pace
just tell me when to call and i'll be clinging to my telephone
it's okay if you need space
just tell me when to come and i'll be there in no time at all
i feel as though i'm collecting dust
i've been stuck for weeks in this fucking rut
clawing at the walls as i develop rust
next time i'll keep my mouth shut
what are we, it's killing me
the ambiguity is so much worse than knowing i'm alone
what are we, is this nothing
would you circle yes or no if i stooped so low as to writing you a note
why did i sneak out of your bed when i don't sleep that well alone
was it all just in my head that i was feeling too at home
i'll try to make it simple
i'm only asking you once
do you want to be the one
to hold my hand when i jump
what does it mean when you kiss me
and press your cheek against my heart
i think it was your cat that convinced me
you don't have to like me to sleep better in my arms

romantic comedy

lately i've been losing sleep fixated on how lonely
i've been these past few weeks
honestly, my life's been like a romantic comedy
lacking romance and lacking comedy
i don't know why I'm always staring at my phone
when no one is ever phoning home
i don't know how many more nights i can spend at home, it's getting terribly old
just last night we were running through the pouring rain, was it naive of me to think that something changed
we made it to the midnight but the rain kept dripping from your bangs
when we brushed arms, i hoped you felt the same
it was a quarter to midnight when you told me you were heading home
i didn't blame you, i just wished that i could go
i don't know how many more nights i can spend alone
it's getting awfully cold

unlovable

i'm insufferable. i don't know how
i am so uncomfortable to be around
i'm dysfunctional i guess
i am far from punctual, but i digress
i'm unlovable, i know
i'm so gullible. i should go home
i'm unlovable, i know
i'm unlovable, i should go home

torn & frayed

i'm afraid i've climbed on board a sinking ship,
you'll see right through my fake facade that i'm a boring piece of shit
& underneath my skin there's nothing more
i'm a hollow shell of who i was before
i'm terrified this ripped and fraying parachute
will only keep us both afloat for another minute or two
so if you're open to advice i'd tell you find somebody new
because upon first glance i might seem like a pretty alright dude
but inside my skull there's nothing else but a few inside jokes and some damaged cells
i swear i swear i swear that i don't hate myself
i'm just so god damn self aware it affects my mental health
inside my chest there's nothing left, i'm a hell of a lot more numb than you would expect
i wish that i could forget everything you said
but it's been swirling round and round for years inside my head
i'm afraid i'm torn and frayed
