It's been so long since I've told someone I loved them and meant it.
Empty words, barely audible;
Each syllable a lie I can't take back.
Wish I could say what's really going on,
But my heart is like a ghost town.
Leave the lights on; I'll be coming home late, or not at all.
How did things get this way?
Can I blame it on the weather, or purely circumstance?
Desperate and disquiet.
Trying so hard to remove myself.
If all we are is what we leave behind,
Then let me be the thoughts that keep you awake,
Or steady your hand on the long drive home.
Then I can say I had a purpose.
Tomorrow will be brighter than today.
Maybe we can watch a sunrise,
But that sounds like a dream I had once.
When we're in the same room,
Really I am miles away.
Really I am miles away.
I'm not afraid to die;
That's what scares me the most.
I'm not afraid to die;
I'm afraid to love you back.

Quiet Car - Cavities

We all fight wars that no one ever sees:
Glaring losses, quiet victories,
A trial itself to show empathy.
When the water you're in, boils your teeth;
Down to the root, cavities of the worst sort.
Let it rot, let it fester, don't get better.
When you pick a hill to die on,
make it a good one.
Take your time...
You won't get a second chance.
You're confined.
You'll be liberated.
It's time to get comfortable,
With being uncomfortable,
With being uncomfortable.
Enough of this lecture professor, I don't care.
The sun is out, the clothes are off, and I can't bare anymore skin.
Is autumn really over? It's only been a week.
We've made it before, we'll make it again.
