Everyone holds on the same
Nobody near explains
Oh well it’s nothing now
Some of the others can’t tell
He’s moving he’s out, turns out, it’s all nothing
now, Adrian don’t you sweat it
Adrian don’t you sweat it
Everyone holds on the same
Hoop never spoke the name
Go get your show on the road
Don't open your mouth turns out it’s all nothing
Now, Adrian don’t you sweat it
Adrian don’t you sweat it
I’m one to talk
That I can see
But give me some backbone
At least
I know I know where we wouldn’t be

so
i think i have to let it go
i think i have to bury the body and honor the ghost
cold
i keep one fire stoked at home
when it eats through the tinder, i sit and i miss the glow
i left my heart in God-Why-Bother
it was hardened, and green in color
i left it out to flower
to make tea from roots and petals
so
it's taken years, but now i know
when he spoke of different loves, he wasn't asking me to go
you know
i did best and took the blow
caught it next to my stomach, and let it stay and let it grow
i gave my love to Nevermind
smiled broad, and smiled wide
if you could see me now, i'm fine
red mouth and a weak gumline
i left my heart in God-Why-Bother
it was hardened, and green in color
i left it out to flower
to make tea from roots and petals

What do you want me to say
It's never going away
'Cause I'm stuck on you like the smell of cigarettes on your flower dress
I want you under my fingernails
I want you in my sleep and in my dreams
I wake up spooning my pillow
Sweaty hand but please don't tell your friends
Now I'm addicted to cigarettes at first I didn't let myself inhale
But smoke got through and so did you and now every burn hole smells like home
And I know it's killing me but that still won't stop me
'Cause now we smell the same but you still kill me faster
I don't mind that you lie sometimes
Because I lie too guess I'm just like you
I don't mind that you lie sometimes
Because I lie too guess I'm just like you
I don't mind that you lie sometimes
Because I lie too guess I'm just like you
I don't mind that you lie sometimes
Because I lie too guess I'm just like you
I
DON'T MIND
THAT YOU LIE
SOMETIMES
BECAUSE I
LIE TOO
GUESS I'M JUST
LIKE YOU

Small Crush - Reflection
01:43
|

missed trips and promises to protect one another
taking time to reflect on myself and rediscover
what i want to be in this world
there is so much truth in what we're told
when we choose to listen
sending love from far away when we can't be together
calling doesn't feel the same while we wait for the world to get better
i know we'll be together again
but for now ill just pretend
while the world takes some time to rebegin
we can learn to love each other

I'll wait, i'll wait
To see you everyday
I know it's late
You gotta be up by eight
So I'll save what I have to say
For when you're off later today
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
I'll wait all day
You say you'll be off by eight
I can't wait to say what I have to say
So I'll watch sunrise turn to shade
Til you're off later today
You say we don't got much time
So look into each other's eyes
You say you don't wanna go
Baby I know
I know but then I guess I'll have to
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
I'll lay awake
Dream of you every single day
I'll lay awake
And dream of the day
Where we
Spend the whole day together
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over
Wait yes I'll wait
Wait until it's over

I'm not always tired, but I'm usually peopled-out.
It won't be long til I move on from this and gracefully bow out.
It don't take much to get along, I don't need much to keep me strong, I don't talk much, I'm better off hiding where you can find me,
At my window, every morning.
Driving for days, still exploring.
The remnants of my five year plan are shorter than my attention span.
I'm most always bluffing still my conscience weighs nothing more than a ghost.
My love for adventure makes me a flakey friend at best.
Profoundly sad to admit, I'll never get better than this.
Cause in the funny way I see, it's better if I leave before I hit my peak or my good luck dies.
Won't go to bed until I relearn to sleep on my side.
And that's the point of driving for days, never knowing.
Still stuck in a full body yawn, a moment of calm, I'm standing face to face with a parody of myself hoping he don't mind me asking,
"Why do you hate so much? How did you chip your tooth? How are you so sure of your purpose and when did you know what's best for you? And why do you care so much? What are you trying to prove? Won't you wake me from my daydream when you leave for something new. I wanna come too."

Seems like I'm facing bad weather
Cold and dark just like December
Seems like it will rain forever
Inside of my head
If that's what you wanna do
Then I'll see you next June
If that's what you wanna do
If that's what you wanna do
Then I'll see you next June
If that's what you wanna do
It seems like I'm facing bad weather
Cold and dark just like December
Feels like it will rain forever
Inside of my head
Go away

We said goodbye to you in the rain
To your reflection in a puddle of mud
The same afternoon
As another friend’s funeral a hundred miles away
And seven hours from home
And it hurts but I know
I wasn’t really expected to go
But I know if we had
Maybe you might’ve made it through
I’m on another overnight drive
With five more hours to go
It seems like we barely survived
Don’t know quite what to expect tomorrow
Because last night on the phone
We decided to move north together
So you could get the scene change that you need
And I could drown myself in the Willamette River
White knuckles on the steering wheel
Coughing up black smoke on an I-5 hill
And I’m begging under my breath
Please don’t break down again
Please don’t break down again
Please don’t break down again
Please don’t break down again
I’m in a stuffy too-small dorm room
You’re getting drunk in your garage alone
Try not to think about the miles between us
While we yell at each other on the phone
‘Cause I know in the end
It makes more sense to hate each other as friends
Yeah, I know in the end
It makes more sense to hate each other as friends
Engine shuddering under my feet
Grinding and coming apart somewhere on 80 East
And I’m whispering through clenched teeth
Please don’t break down again
Please don’t break down again
Please don’t break down again
Please don’t break down again
Do I miss you? Does it matter?
Well don’t you flatter yourself
Because there’s a hole in my heart and a weight on my chest
Like a four car collision on the interstate at 65 miles an hour
Please don’t break down again
(Please don’t break, you know better than to break down)
Well I guess it bears repeating
(Please don’t break, you know better than to break down)
Please don’t break down again
(Please don’t break, you know better than to break down)
'Cause it feels just like, just like
Please don’t break down again
(Please don’t break, you know better than to break down)
Please don’t break down again
(Please don’t break, you know better than to break down)
Please don’t break down again
(Please don’t break, you know better than to break down)
Please don’t break down again
Please don’t break, you know better than to break down

Carpool Tunnel - Gravity

You
So good
To me
Oh can't you see
I find the time to listen
Reaching for the distance
Friendships I've been missing they come and they go
But you always know
It's how these things tend to grow
When you're staring at the clock and it's looking slow
Gravity
Is pulling me in
In to stay
These times are the sweetest ones so
Don't go run into the sun
Gravity
It's pulling me in
Gravity
It's pulling me in
In to stay
I won't go away

There’s a place behind all the screens
all the screens
Where the purple mountain majesties have portraits made of gold
Where capital and power
and history
Coalesce and pressurize into a gallery of gods
Our mythology
And the stage sits
hundred miles high
we zoom in
All their stories play out in the same way
false resolve
Their drama’s based off our disruption
false resolve
All their stories play out in the same way
false resolve
More and more myths can’t stop our disruption
nothing solved
