1.
Grit Magnum 01:56
I can't feel the ground beneath my feet There's no describing what this gravity does to me (wallow in the mud/ in your shallow grave)
2.
Wait for the shock of everything to go away It's time for me to accept my own responsibility This is nights spent drunk in the back of someone's car This is holding on and re-branding of old scars You say you know me You swear you know me When I promise you everything And I can't give you anything at all The weight of using my actions are coming clear cause I wish could be someone else entirely This is knowingly using your insecurities And blaming her for ruining me completely Wish we were sturdier houses with stronger foundations don't we Instead this is a murder scene we cover up with promising expectations
3.
Car Smashing 03:48
Move out in empty spaces I am transparent Fixed on the idea of being alone or worthless Like the time you said you didn't get butterflies and you were guilty And we shut up and left the house and went to Panera for dinner They say I'll rest easy one day and I'm not quite sure that I believe them I won't I won't I won't fucking believe them
4.
Woebegone 02:54
"Move away from the edge kid" It had been the first freeze of the year My face was incredibly red breath suspended in air Short foot shuffles take me further terror wrought spectating eyes The ice cracked a cold rush followed my vision went black the air left my lungs Pulled to the surface I should of drowned I should had died Am I really alive if I can't live with myself for this? (Where did my self worth go?) And if I'm alive, shouldn't this life be someone else's? (I'll send it down below) Am I really alive?

Sky Uppercut 01:56
(things, once important, now mean nothing)
6.
Dimir 03:00
Your frame was frail I was staring out of the window It had snowed a few days ago most of which had melted leaving the landscape naked and hopeless The trees losing their leaves I was detached there was the hum of medical equipment There were nurses talking in the hall We were discussing where we would send you and by we I mean they Give it back Getting ill has never been up to us neither is our recovery It happens on the terms decided by the people who paid to much for their degrees Give it back
7.
My physical structure is deteriorating the matter I'm made of doesn't matter in the long run Systems closing down (synapse misfires) Wearing thin, transparent My skin melts away I feel nothing Pain + ecstacy Are mere memories laying dorman I exist I only exist Systems shutting down (synapse misfires) Lost sense of self Fading away I will die There's no way to stop this I will die I am fading away I am dying Breath after breath, breath after breath I am dying
8.
Take a walk by my window Possess'd by peeping t0m Curiosity is only deadly to cats Seek yr refuge here Come 2 me and let me take yr soul In the morning I don't know where I'll be but I hope that it's a better place And the first part of the worst part is that I never meant to say those things about gravity are you mad at me And you've got a weight inside of you that you've been drinking away for years You get so nervous when my hands shake cause your father was drinker and you can't wish it away I've been working 9 to 5's to forget how your life is the worst part of my existence sometimes I am the only worst part try to place the blame on cigarettes or someone else (in the morning I don't know where I'll be but I hope that it's a better place)
9.
Light Green 03:52
You spent all of your days pulling the wings off of moths And I tackled you out in the school yard A quiet sort of anger that wells up inside I never did forgive your lying eyes And I don't give a shit about how you want to leave this fucking town My cousin almost died and I wish I were alive but I'm here wasting my time

Pingree Pass 02:19
......happy trails friends....
