Lately

Lately I’ve been feeling like a hot air balloon
Living with my head in the clouds little too soon
Maybe it’s the fire that keeps on burning inside of me
Or maybe it’s my need to make sense of it all
Lately I’ve been feeling like some kinda satellite
Messages in and out all the through the nite
Maybe this junk sitting around me
Getting me scared this sinking feeling will drown me
Sometimes I feel like some kinda monster
And other times
I feel like I’m a shooting star
Can you hear me
Can you hear me coming down
Can you hear me
Can you hear me coming down
Will I be okay
Be okay/ be okay
Lately I’ve been feeling like a creaky floorboard
Drafts coming in through the windows and under the doors
I don’t know what’s going on above or beneath me
These things that are around and what they’re trying to teach me
Sometimes I feel life is getting farther
And other times
I feel like maybe I know
Can you hear me
Can you hear me calling
Can you hear me
Can you hear me falling down
Will I be okay
Be okay/ be okay

Cat and Mouse

This brain is a battle
And it rattles like a snake
Scaling up and down my spine in designs of
Designs of me and you
I play cat and I play mouse in this home
Where are you
And are you still alone
Do you think about the times we had
And how you wanted it to last
Wanted it to last
Wanted it to last
I lost sanity along the way
And I’ve burnt bridges by mistake
I get caught up in the looking back at what was left
Was left of me and you
I play cat and I play mouse in this home
Where are you
And are you still alone
Do you think about the times we had
And how you wanted it to last
Wanted it to last
Wanted it to last
I will never/ get there with you
I will never/ get to say these things to you
I will never ever forget to remember
How could I not
My heart is an outline
And It’s been written and erased
In between all the words and the spaces between
Between me and you
I play cat and I play mouse in this home
Where are you
And are you still alone
Do you think about the times we had
And how you wanted it to last
Wanted it to last
Wanted it to last

Reach

Well I’m drawn to the lite
Like I’m some kinda moth
Getting caught in the rain
Drops tore the wing rioff
I’ve been sick and wet in the dark
Looking for some kinda switch
God made my arms a little short
I can’t seem to scratch the itch
What is underneath
Is out of reach to me
Well there’s/ nothing to lose
When you’re cut from the tree
Well there’s nothing to prove
Love took/ the best of me
This hurt/ and all these pains
Weeks years months and days
I hope/ God I’m praying to exists
Because I’ve been asking to be saved
What is underneath
Is out of reach for me
Is out of reach for me
I’m trying my best/ and I still don’t know
I’m not holding my breath/ that it will ever show
What is underneath
Is out of reach for me
Is out of reach for me

Beaches

I feel the wall against my back
And it's not for lack of trying
I sense my words are falling flat
Lost in a place that I can't find
The truth is I’m afraid
I don’t really wanna have to change
I’m done settling in this wrestling with
Staying the same
I don’t wanna be mechanical
I wanna eat sleep breathe just like an animal
The truth is I’m afraid
I don’t really wanna have to change
I’m done settling in this wrestling with
Staying the same
The truth is I’m afraid
I don’t really wanna have to change
I’m done settling in this wrestling with
Staying the same
Staying the same
I’m done with
Staying the same
