you want a safer space
but you won’t do the work
you still don’t understand
we’re not the fucking police
this isn’t some stepping stone
to a life of fame and fortune
it’s called do it yourself
not gonna do it for you
we’re happy to lend a helping hand
but we won’t be exploited
you get a little clout
but treat everyone like a jerk
people like you
we’ve seen em come and go
this isn’t some stepping stone
to a life of fame and fortune
it’s called do it yourself
not gonna do it for you
we’re happy to lend a helping hand
but we won’t be exploited
in a competition there will always be a winner and a loser. through cooperation we can all survive together or we can die together
there’s something inside all of us that wants to see the world grow, don’t let it burn.
it’s getting hard to find the energy
to keep on trying to be
driven by empathy
i’m so tired.

it shouldn’t be
this scary in twenty nineteen
to be alive
i’ve been asleep
for most of the time
all my life
i just woke up
after the longest night
now i see
that i
can’t live without pain
but now
it’s nothing i haven’t seen
i’ve had the time to realize
what it was that made me wanna stop being alive
there is no doubt what i’m about
it’s time to choose
when you will
stop

Die Trying? Try Dying

i moved out when i was nineteen
to the city away from my family
didn’t know how to live on my own
told my friends to never leave me alone
drove around until i found a job
that’s where it went all wrong
and i learned how to get by alright
with plenty of friends with lots of time
feeling good shouldn’t be a crime
these habits will be the death of me

drove around until i found a job
that’s where it went all wrong
and i learned how to get by alright
with plenty of friends with lots of time
doing harmless bad things
these habits will be the death of me

i put all my hopes and dreams
into the same basket
i ignored that tiny voice
begging me to slow down
little did i know i was
building my own casket
i tried to be
best version of me
i forgot there was an end
to this empty tunnel
and when i saw the light
i thought my time had come
but failure is a test
such a harrowing reminder
that life can be
so challenging
i thought if i only told the truth
itd be enough to let you trust me
i had to learn the hard way there’s so many ways to be let down
but the thing about growth
is that it’s different for everybody
there’s an ebb and flow that’s entirely your own
there’s nothing else to talk about
i’m not looking for restitution
i hope to hear you’re doing well
and we both continue to grow
and i won’t regret my mistakes
i’m grateful for what i’ve learned
i know i can’t change the past
i’m just hoping for forgiveness
please

Live Free And Cry Hard
02:21

i want to find
the timeline
where i’m not afraid to wake up
cuz everyday
it’s hard to read
about another atrocity
won’t go away
on its own
so hold each other close
all we have
is to revel in
this shared experience
i hate that we’re forced to be
treated like commodities
and i don’t know
what i want the end result to be
give me sweet release
this feeling can’t last forever
something will break real soon
and when it does
i want to make it better
build a future for me and you
a better future for me and you
i want to believe
we can overcome the greed
and take the time
to show up for each other

it’s not like i
haven’t felt this way before
but i believe
i can pick myself up
i don’t need
you to comfort me
i’ll find a way
to make myself complete
i had to know
if this shit was even worth it
it takes some time
to get back on my feet
i don’t need
your help
|

i’m starting to think
there is no recipe
to ever be truly happy
i guess we’ll never know
we spend our time
making our lives look interesting
there’s a lot going through my head
it’s hard to stay focused
it’s not like i can define
what i need to feel alive
i wish i had the time
to sort out what’s filling up my mind
i know it’s hard to be
someone with strong convictions
you can’t expect them
to want to save themselves
and when the time is right
you’ll find the strength inside
you will stand
for those who cannot fight
i know it’s hard to be
someone with strong convictions
you have to trust that
it won’t always be this way

i can’t recall a day i didn’t feel like i was behind
i’m reminded it ain’t real it’s all fake
your production shouldn’t dictate your self worth
remember it’s
not your problem
if you don’t like what you’ve become
but can’t find the strength to change
just search for what’s meaningful
and give it some time to grow
if they try to take it from you
if they try to kill your dream
remain focused on your truth
and remember who you’re living for
i don’t need another minute of your time no thanks

Wake Up In The Void
01:06
|

i thought i was strong enough
to deal with whatever came my way
i never thought this thing i love
would be the thing to kill me
i know i cant
survive for long
without some help
blow the doors
wide open
and come on in
there’s plenty enough to go around
if our only goal is support

here we are now
8 years into the future
why do i feel i still gotta say
don’t owe me anything
we’ve got so much to be thankful for
it means a lot that you stuck around
don’t owe me anything
i know it’s been hard to leave the guilt behind
so please
don’t owe me anything
don’t owe me shit
it’s kinda funny how it all turned out
and yeah i was mad for awhile but then i forgot
it doesn’t have to be friends or enemies
we can live somewhere in between
give it some time
to find peace of mind
dont wanna make it yours or mine
but maybe something where our goals align

you would think
i don’t have any problems trying to sleep
but i’ve been up so long so
worried
that this dream will end
life’s been good still a little hard
i’m trying to convince myself
that i deserve all this love
from my friends
who i haven’t had the chance to thank
for the time we shared
crying in our backyard
i know youve never heard this before
but im so grateful for the love and support
you’ve shown me these past few years
that it’s taken to work through my bullshit
