I Know I'm Running Late

Half an hour ago
You were coming home
Tired, tired
Twenty years ago
Daddy's coming home
Tired, tired
I'm useless
Useless
Tired
I know I'm running late
and it'll be okay
I know I'm running late
Half a year ago
I was heading home
Fired
Fire
I'm useless
New bruises
Tired
I know I'm running late
and it'll be okay
I know I'm running late
and it'll be okay

I know a place
We can hide away
I've tried to recognize
Your face
Your face
Don't you want it?
We'll keep it under
40 miles
That's half an hour
We're going under
Underwater
Here we go again
Don't you want to be friends?
I can't stop thinking of that dream I had
When you left for good
Why can't we keep going on and on and on and
Don't you want it?
We'll keep it under
40 miles
That's half an hour
I can't help it
It's automatic
Here we go a-
Here we go again
I know a place
We can hide away
I've tried to recognize
Your face
Your face
Don't you want it?
We'll keep it under
40 miles
That's half an hour
and I can't help it
It's automatic
Here we go again
Don't you want it?
Keep it on it
I can't help it
It's automatic
We're going under
We're underwater
Here we go again

Dissipate

Are we lost?
Someone coming up the hill
Your holy ghost?
There's gotta be someone you can tell
But either way
We dissipate
Well either way
We dissipate
Can you be found
Holding on to someone else?
This feels like more
Than just a break
Yeah either way
We dissipate
Well either way
We dissipate

Great Escape
04:06
|

|
All alone in Buffalo
I'm overgrown and begging down low
Brother knows, it's getting old
He don't know I love him so
Tweaking out, I'm Cleveland bound
Steering wheel is freaking out
You're just a score
What's with the frown?
The great explore of Chinatown
But when you wake
It'll all be okay
To put down that weight
and make your great escape
Make your great escape
(Coming home, it's getting bad)
Coming home, it's getting bad
Moving in with Mom and Dad
I'm 24 and I'm so sad
Never thought it'd get to that
Did it used to come so naturally?
How come we always have to reach?
But when you wake
It'll all be okay
To put down that weight
and make your great escape
Make your great escape
and make your great escape
But when you wake
It'll all be okay
To put down that weight

Honestly

I don't wanna be an ordinary girl
I don't wanna see an ordinary world
Guess I'll just pretend it's all
The only thing we've got going on
and on and on
I don't wanna be an ordinary girl
Honestly everything's getting old
Honestly everything's been sold
Out to everyone you know except your mom
Honestly
I can't help but believe
You are my love
Careful not to strain
Your lungs
I can tell you're gonna be
A helpless star
You're gonna see
The top of the charts
Even when we sleep
You'll be working hard
Honestly everything's okay
Everyone's throwing themselves away
Sold out to everyone you know except your mom
Honestly everything is fine
I just pretended that I lay
Out on the street at night
With my hands up high praying
Honestly
Honestly everything's okay
Never lost myself that day
Drawing up a bath
I'll be right back
Okay?
Honestly everything's okay
Made out to "no one's completely straight"
Honestly everything's gonna be okay in the end
Honestly
Honestly

I know you know he's a
A cause worth lost
He comes and goes when they want
and never shows us their thoughts
I think I know where they go
They're up in the clouds
Out of your sight
I guess
You and I were never meant
For second chance
Or revenge
They come and go when they want
and never show up in time
I think
I think I know why
They're up in the clouds
Out of your sight
They're up in the clouds
Out of your mind
The sun is going down
Lost in the crowd
A sea of noise
Of noise
Facing fears alone
Holding off the overdose
I'm out of sight
I'm out of mind

Clicking on the wrong thing
Pointing it the wrong way
Wait for tomorrow
Cause that's what you're told
Wrote another song today
Little weird but it's okay
Flip the switch
Change your view
It's not black and white
A little gray inside
Higher resolution please
But you're already here
Wait for tomorrow
At least that's what you're told
It's not black and white
A little gray inside
It's not black and white
A little gray inside

Head First, Upside Down
04:00

So you climb the ladder
Reach the peak
Don't look down
Just keep your feet
You'll hold your breath
At the very end
When you feel it on
You feel it on your hands
Head first, upside down
Climbing up the ladder now
Holding out for air
My heart begins to pound
When are you coming out?
Did they beat you down with fear?
(When are you coming out?)
So you climb the ladder
Reach the peak
Don't look down
Just keep your feet
You'll hold your breath
At the very end
When you feel it on
You feel it on your hands
I can't remember the last time we talked
I still remember the times I fucked up
I'll never leave it all behind
Keep it together
Just hold your language
Up on the ladder
Just circumstances
We're all just waiting for our time
To dive
So you climb the ladder
Reach the peak
Don't look down
Just keep your feet
You'll hold your breath
At the very end
When you feel it on
You feel it on your hands
My heart begins to pound
When are you coming out?
My heart begins to pound
When are you coming out?
My heart begins to pound
When are you coming out?
My heart begins to pound
(When are you coming out?)
So you climb the ladder
Reach the peak
Don't look down
Just keep your feet
You'll hold your breath
At the very end
When you feel it on
You feel it on your hands
You feel it on your hands

Glass Blown House
05:44
|

|
I'm calling out today
My boss said don't be late
I salt the sidewalk for me and my mate
The weather's not looking great
I stopped reaching out
The wolf knocked on the door
There's salt burns on my back
and they're still taking more and more
and more and more
and more
I want to be
In a world without those
Poison ivy leaves
I want to see
A world less shattered
Like a glass blown house
So I'll just leave
Call your parents right now
Before shit hits the floor
Hey kids, did you hear that?
They're still begging you for more
and more and more
and more
I want to be
In a world without those
Poison ivy leaves
I want to see
A world less shattered
Like a glass blown house
So I'll just leave
Oh, I'll just leave
So I'll just leave
Oh, I'll just leave
