It was a nice day at the beach
Til you sunk in your goddamn teeth
Into my legs I couldn’t run away
Into my chest I couldn’t stand the pain
A walk had never felt so nice
Til you told me what was on your mind
You left your problems in my brain
Do I look Like your goddamn drain
Drain the pain

Talk

As long as I’ve known I was born to resist
Patiently waiting to clip your problems to my wrist
Cries for help delayed by the dark of night
All in good time, the troops still have a reason to fight for you
I’ll lower my defenses when you call
Instead of trying to feel nothing at all
Can you tell me what's happening to talk
Time to tear down these crumbling walls
Spent my life trying to feel the days away
But it’s tough to do when all of your days are filled with pain
Got all the way to panic who told me that there’s no room for you here
I’ll lower my defenses when you call
Instead of trying to feel nothing at all
Can you tell me what's happening to talk
Time to tear down these crumbling walls
I’ll lower my defenses when you call
Instead of trying to feel nothing at all
Can you tell me what's happening to talk
Time to tear down these crumbling walls

I took a walk away from all the noise today.
I’m overwhelmed with thoughts that I can’t satiate.
5 o’clock at 10am
My face is numb, but god I can’t stand the thought of faking.
My attention span is waning.
Friends that feel like strangers.
I’ll let you know when I’m coming around,
I’m coming around, I’m coming around, I’m coming around!
I think that I’d rather be at home
Watching some reruns of Malcolm in the Middle.
Or burning matches because you know that I really like the smell,
it’s sorta comforting when I start to feel so by myself
And your friend Charlotte?
Yeah I guess she’s fine.
We’d probably get along if I even cared to give the time.
We could mellow out and try to make the best of both of our situations, but anything that’s good for me just won’t do! Oh!
Why the hell am I still here?
I’m supposed to be overthinking everything in bed by now.
I feel so helplessly small in such a big room, and I can’t help that I feel so much less than you.
Tactless rationalizations, I’m grasping for some recourse.
I could try to walk it off but man that’s such a pain in my ass.
I view the world in search of, I dunno, some deeper meaning.
Just because I don’t want the help doesn’t mean that I don’t need it!

Choke

My conversations feel strange.
I’ll talk myself in circles for hours straight.
Don’t mind me, choking on my own medicine.
wash it down with a tall glass of ignorance.
How long til I croak?
Get the cigarette smell out of my coat.
How far will you go?
Hiding in plain sight.
How long til you choke?
I can’t breath.
How far will you go?
Sleepless for days as a matter of consequence.
Cleanse your soul of sin just to dirty it up again.
Why don’t I know what I should know by now?
Why don’t I know what you know?
How long til I croak?
Get the cigarette smell out of my coat.
How far will you go?
Hiding in plain sight.
How long til you choke?
I can’t breath.
How far will you go?
Are you fucking kidding me?!
How long til I croak?
(How long how long?)
How far will you go?
(How far how far?)
How long til you choke?
(How long how long?)
How far will you go?
Hiding in plain sight.

Helium

Tear me down
Stare into my soul?
Won’t you bring it out?
‘Cos it hasn’t seen the light in years
Autumn falls
She’s down here for good
But she left her heart
Where she left her tears
On the floor
On the floor
Don’t you know?
Don’t you know your words are toxic?
Why am I so conscious?
Why do I care what people think?
When helium floats off my tongue all I do is sink?
Helium, won’t you come and save the day?
Helium, why can’t I have it my way?
Helium, won’t you come take me away?
Helium, won’t you come and save the day?
Pick up my feet
You pick up my mood
But I’m torn between the other you’s
You interrupt
My incessant thought
For the time being you’re the one I want
My desire
My desire
Don’t you know?
Don’t you know your love is toxic?
Why am I so conscious?
Why do I care what people think?
When helium floats off my tongue all I do is sink?
Helium, won’t you come and save the day?
Helium, why can’t I have it my way?
Helium, won’t you come take me away?
Helium, won’t you come and save the day?
Oh oh the fire
Is burning brighter
Oh oh the fire
Is fueled by the helium
Oh oh the fire
Is burning brighter
Oh oh the fire
Is fueled by the helium
