1.
Can’t snap out of it Black clouds overhead are permanent I’m losing my faith My confidence is crashing like rain Can’t snap out of it Stuck in a haze So fucking tired of waiting I try but nothing is changing at all I need a remedy for reality I’m desperately grasping For a distraction or some clarity I need a remedy Can’t snap out of it Why is my head my heart’s detriment I’m searching for signs of permanence While wasting away Can’t snap out of it
2.
Drew the blinds on the sunlight pouring in Locked the door but I hope someone opens it A recluse torn in two by loneliness Don’t wanna be with myself or anyone else Thoughts are turning poisonous Vital signs are weakening Hold my breath and hope this ends Cause lately I’ve been more or less a nervous wreck I‘m staying in, I’m out of it A ghost in my reflection I wanna see me again Left the house stepping out on a limb again Chasing fleeting feelings of confidence With a map torn in half I’m directionless Drifting far from myself And everyone else Drifting far from myself Drifting far from everybody else

Teeth 03:28
These last two years were the worst years of my life Left me fucked up past the point of ever believing that I’d get by I call your phone, you don't pick up It’s pointless hope cause I know you're gone I’ve heard your voice so many times I’ve got your message memorized I've tried everything but nothing’s working I’ve tried everything but I’m still hurting The medicine isn’t kicking in but life is kicking my teeth out On the floor again and I’m losing it So beat me ‘tiI I black out Cause I don’t want to face it These last two hours were the longest of my life And the thought of you is a slow burn blazing that never fades with time I thought I’d heal but then I relapsed I’m falling back, can’t help my reflex In my head I’m treading water but my arms just collapse
4.
Spinning 03:14
Wide awake, it’s 2AM Contemplating everything So many nights spent isolating With all the problems that I’m creating I’m not letting go, no, I’m not letting go Can’t keep straight It’s too late To turn off this road I’m spinning I’m spinning out of control It’s too late Can’t think straight Out here on my own Wide awake, my mind’s still racing (A dead look lives in my eyes) Feeling weak, yeah, I’m losing patience (My mind keeps feeding me lies) Too many nights spent isolating With all the problems that I’m creating Watch me spin Out of control Watch me spin I’m not letting go
5.
Storyteller 03:39
212 degrees rushing forcefully Through my veins and arteries No chance of getting sleep As you soundly rest With the state I’m in So far in disrepair You put me here You’re indifferent I’ve been wearing thin Starved of apology This hunger’s crippling I can hardly speak Lips are trembling So far in disrepair You put me here You’re a storyteller What you buried deep resurfaced You’re a liar, liar, liar No secret that you kept ever fucked me up like this Storyteller You’re a liar, liar, liar Red hands, losing face Nervous stuttering You lost grip of every good thing You’ve fallen off at the deep end I was so naive You said, honestly ”I swear, I never knew” But now I see right through You put me here Now I see right through you
