In Stone 04:27
Remembering what you forgot Worn out journals of the dreams you'd miss Becoming everything I'm not And still believing that your god exists Early on I know they followed me I waved it off And tried to stall the pending light Bury mine, bury mine Bury mine in stone I can't recall what happened last The days are blurring back into the night The moment has already passed I barely had a chance to make it right Early on I know they followed me I waved it off And tried to stall the pending light Bury mine, bury mine Bury mine in stone

Head On 04:58
Faintly sharpening will Waking up to capture your daily photo We're still climbing uphill High enough to look down at the volcano 1, 2, 3 we'll peek every hour Come with me, we'll share some air I'm too weak for the world Watching everyone think they found a reason But you're my favorite girl Stretching out the fall for another season 1, 2, 3 we'll peek every hour Come with me, we'll share some air Pain behind that door Is like you've never felt before Imagined only I can't unsee things that I've seen, but I know We'll never fall back in line Go on tell everyone Empty words you don't know how to stand by So reluctant to show Even though you'll wake back up after midnight 1, 2, 3 we'll peek every hour Come with me, we'll share some air Pain behind that door Is like you've never felt before Imagined only I can't unsee things that I've seen, but I know We'll never fall back and I'm letting go Take it all head on Without a ghost to weigh you down Even if we know they're wrong Another place to keep around Even if we don't belong Ignoring everything we found Even if we know they're wrong I guess I'm letting go Take it all head on

Eroding 03:07
To know is not to see Couldn't tell me otherwise We see things differently Only now I realize We're all just waiting till we drift away Tell me what I should be And I won't apologize You know why I won't lie You know why And we're just slowly eroding The worst part is knowing If it was worth it all Would you leave a second time Finding your purpose how Do I try to find mine The past that brought you to my front door step, soon as I Get over losing love Here it comes again now You know why I won't lie You know why And we're just slowly eroding The worst part is knowing I won't lie You know why I won't lie And we're just slowly eroding The worst part is knowing What will become of our fading sun When we're all gone

A lighthouse, a beacon A gust that brought me to my knees and A vague horizon, still searching You know you're not the only reason Tomorrow, you're waiting Relentless in your imitating A better version of yourself Emotions always withheld Nothing you say will change a thing But you say it anyway Driving to you in pouring rain Always made me feel the same You don't try to mask it Cut up by now, you're heavy handed Early warnings could only Reveal your shame, but you demand it Another year older Still here somehow and someone told her Love is only suggested But not what you expected Nothing you say will change a thing But you say it anyway Driving to you in pouring rain Always made me feel the same How could I know that you would run At the hint of something more It's never enough to be just one Of the others from before Now that I know you will run At the hint of something more It's never enough to be just one Of the others from before
6.
The more we try To hold on tight it all slips away To calm your fire Another night with nothing to say Could it be more unclear Holding someone else And talking to yourself A monument Destroyed by war bracing for more Watered down The pressure mounts outside your door Could it be more unclear Holding someone else And talking to yourself Every night Throw it away Nothing's wrong Throw it away
