Empty Spaces 04:21
I know lately you can’t sleep So you’ve moved into the next room with the smaller bed You can’t stand the empty space. Stuck in misery Making the best of what we’ve become. Is happiness filled with regret? Is there hope for us? A storm rolls into the city I can hear the sad songs in the leaves reminding me of all the things you’ll never be Stuck in misery Making the best of what we’ve become Is happiness filled with regret? Is there hope for us? It’s been a year without you here and nothing is getting better I can’t wake up in the morning What’s the god damn point? Stuck in misery Making the best of what we’ve become. Does happiness even exist? Is there hope for us?

Tired Eyes 03:29
When you’re tired and you can’t fall asleep Do you ever think of me Like I always think of you I’ll never get to dream again Because when I close my eyes I see you in my head reminding me of all the things I’ll never be I just want to get to sleep Last night I went to a show I had a good time, but I left sad I drove home through the city streets That always meant something to me Because when I close my eyes I see you in my head reminding me of all the things I’ll never be I just want to get to sleep I’d be lying if I said I wished you the best I’m at home all along with this hole in my chest Because when I close my eyes I see you in my head reminding me of all the things I’ll never be I just want to get to sleep When you’re tired and you can’t fall asleep I hope you think of me.

Fractions 06:45
I feel like four-fifths of a person right now And every time we fit into a booth The look in our eyes is unbearable It’s empty without you I feel like two-thirds of a person right now We were gonna take on the world We won’t ever, ever give in And we won’t be what they want us to be I’m so tired of all these fractions I’m so far from being whole The missing piece is six feet underground And I’ve lost all hope The small-town punks are three-fourths Those clearviews boys won’t ever be the same Because you were the glue That kept everyone together She’s at just one half And I know she hurt you She loves you more than you know And I don’t think she’ll recover I know you weren’t whole Living with a broken heart You thought you were never enough That’s a god damn lie I’m so tired of all these fractions I’m so far from being whole The missing piece is six feet underground And I’ve lost all hope If I’m honest, I hold it against you You wanted to make her hurt To suffer for a hard decision That’s not what love is You don’t think that I don’t want to die You don’t think that I feel it too But I wouldn’t do that to mom or dad And I would never do it to you I’m so tired of all these fractions I’m so far from being whole The missing piece is six feet underground And I’ve lost all hope I’m so tired of these fucking fractions I’m so far from being whole The missing piece is six feet underground And I’ve lost all hope I stood at your graveside And thought about how you died I couldn’t leave You will always be a piece of me. I’m so tired of all these fractions I’m so far from being whole The missing piece is six feet underground And I’ve lost all hope I’m so tired of all these fractions

Summer days fade away And now it gets dark at seven As the leaves turn brown and fall to the ground I think I’ll be ok Often I think I wish it’d stay this way forever but like ponyboy says “nothing gold can stay” September brings the end of summer And the start of me I think I’ll be alright At least ‘til spring As I breathe in the autumn air I’m getting myself back And finally, I can wear my hoodie It’s my true skin. I hear high school football off in the distance I hate that shit, but somehow its feels right September brings the end of summer And the start of me I think I’ll be alright At least ‘til spring I’ve been cruising town With the windows down I feel connected to this place Beauty is ephemeral And that’s what makes it beautiful It took me too long to learn that So, for now I’ll make the most Of this autumn gold September brings the end of summer And the start of me I think I’ll be alright At least ‘til spring

Bruised 02:52
I hate the way That I can’t explain what you mean to me You are a light in the dark And yet you hurt me Just like a bruise Dull and persistent and painful to touch Like a bruise I would love for this all to end But I can’t imagine life without you So for now I’ll be bruised

Cascade 07:24
Everything cascades down If it doesn’t let up soon I might drown Kicking and flailing just to catch a breath I’m trying so hard, but I’ve got nothing left Everything cascades so I’ll close my eyes and drift away Focus on the thing that got us here
