I’m a mess
I do my dishes twice a week at best
I could guess
That the way i keep my shit would only make you stress
But i’mma work things out
I’mma change my way of living for you
Yes i’mma work things out
There’s nothing that i wouldn’t do, because
I wanna spend more time with you darling
If you’re ready to split the rent
So now we’re stepping it up
I’ve got a savings account now, baby
They say that people don’t change but I could get responsible
(x2)
Commitment, affection, communication and a lot of correction
Are the only constants to a healthy love
If you ask me
We got em
What some other people think is their own problem
And i won’t live my life by someone else’s rules
[chorus]
don’t wanna share my space with anyone’s face but yours, darling no
cause i’ve been living alone for so long
i can appreciate that i suck at keeping my shit straight, i know i know
but i could get it together for love
[chorus]

Standing Back Up
03:10

There’s something in the water
There’s bugs inside my brain that eat away at my mind
I’m running round in circles
I think this time i’ve finally lost control of my life
So i read a self-help book
And now i’m buying every supplement at the store
My growth is so stunted
I’m sure the only way out is to buy even more
well it’s been a couple fucked up years
I lost some friends and gained a couple fears
But now it’s time to turn around
I’m picking myself up
Off the ground
So tell all your friends to watch out
I’ve got plans they should be talking about
I’m starting over today
And the world can’t get in my way, oh no
I’m standing back up
I’ve got my sights set high
(x2)
Things are gonna change now
I think this time i’ve finally got my head on right
I say that in jest
I’m riddled with stress
I’m shouting this song in the middle of the night
Cause all my goals are stretched out
I swear i’m gonna read a hundred books this year
My girlfriend says i’m crazy
It’s not the confirmation that i needed to hear
But tell all your friends to watch out
I’ve got plans they should be talking about
I’m starting over today
And the world can’t get in my way, oh no
[chorus x2]

Where You Are
04:04

You know I can’t keep things straight
The way you do
You know I won’t make our bed
Unless you lock me in the room
It’s the ADD in my brain
that kinda leaves me screwed
I don’t know what I’d get done
Without the shit I get from you
And if I’m being honest I don’t know what I did right
You make me wanna promise that i’ll be here every day and every night
Oh, if the world is on fire
Somehow I know
Baby you will be right there where you are
I come home and I’m tired
Somehow I know
Baby you will be right there where you are
Baby you will be right there where you are
Oh anywhere anytime
Somehow I know
Baby you will be right there where you are
Have I told you I need your OCD?
Toothbrush on the right
I like me better when I’m clean
I never thought that I’d care
Or not willingly
But waking up on your left
Turns out it’s everything i need
[chorus x2]

Write Me
03:00
|

Seems like so many moons ago
Since you moved away
And now there’s been too many days where i just can’t remember your face
But when i do it hits me
Like a brick or a whole damn wall
A little remorse that I can’t be a better side boo to ya
Or a friend at all
I don’t need you to spend your hours on the phone
You don’t have to buy plane tickets to come visit home
I just need you to
Write me, write me
You can write me at home
What would another person know about our love?
Write me, write
or don’t call me at all
Because the missing you could only hurt me
Write me, write me
You can write me at home
What would another person know about our love?
Write me, write me
Before the year goes
Another year when you’ve been feeling alone
Some nights when I fall asleep
I hope you’re doing well
I saved the last letter you sent
In a folder on some shelf
I was staring at the shapes that your hand made on the page so long
But I can’t recall what we did on the day you left
Or if I was feeling so wrong

Little Too Late
02:43

do you believe in fate?
do you think there’s a place
where we find another person who makes life seem alright
it’s an ancient belief
a romantic deceit
i think it’s foolish to try
cause i could walk the whole beach
leave the silence to speak
i could leave the other side of my bed open for years
i could go it alone
i would piss and i’d moan
but soulmates wouldn’t appear
i think it’s just a little played out (ooh it’s so played out)
i don’t wanna sit on my hands like i’m waiting for you
i think it’s just a little played out (ooh it’s so played out)
cause helplessness is nothing new...
have you ever heard the sound of a lover who lost?
it’s like the din of a quiet parade
have you ever seen the ghost of a soulmate forgone?
they’re casting shadows where there’s already shade
cause they're a little too late for love
cause they're a little too late for love
who is buying this shit?
let your ego get hit
there’s a hundred other ways to disempower your life
than driving yourself insane
over someone with no name
you think will show up sometime
and all the best stories suck
you may think there’s a rut
i think the beauty always lies beneath the daily mundane
and if this thought keeps you sane
it’s worth repeating again
love is a choice that you make

I know sometimes this world leaves you in dismay
I wrote this song to help you get through the day, yeah
When it seems like no-one cares,
when the assholes stop and stare,
Keep your head to the sky
Every year gets more complex
Evolution might be dead
But you’re gonna survive
I’m ready at any point to scream and shout
We’re losing the light i think it’s running out
But we can always find our loved ones in the dark
No matter how bad things might sound
I got my friends we’re gonna make it out
And when we love each other we will be okay-
Even if it’s not much better than that
Even if it’s not much better than that, no
Even if it doesn't get better than that
Even if it's not much better than that, no
There’s no way i’d be sane if i was in this alone
When every day’s the same it’s still a rush to get home
And i’ve been telling friends i’ll always pick up the phone,
If you call me up

Mind and Body
03:47
|

|
All of the things
You could make me say
About a thousand different messages are sent to my brain
Are they the truth?
Am I that vain?
But my body intelligence is proving hard to contain
I’d freeze my tongue to try to keep myself cool
But sentences melt in my mouth when I look at you,
I’m mumbling like a fool
Mind and body
When you’re mine, your body
Gets me every time
Mind and body
When you’re mine, your body
gets me every time
Your body gets me every time
Mind and body
When you’re mine, your body
Gets me every time
You’ve got this thing, I could never leave
I’ve run all the numbers and you’re lightyears out of my league
So I’ll play the fool, not like it’s up to me
Something’s taking over and i’m losing all subtlety

Dreams II
04:28

You were in my dreams last night
We jumped into an alternate dimension
You calmed me down when I freaked out, cause I forgot 3 weeks of time
I had a dream about Bob West
He held a big parade across Columbus
He made movies every year to show his friends what had been on his mind
I only see friends when I’m asleep
I hide in my apartment all day
Tweeting out the minutes of my night
My brain yells at me to go outside
But lately it’s been getting real cold
I waste all the best years of my life
I lost my mind a couple times
To find it waiting in a Redbox rental
If only David Lynch could solve the depths of all my apathy
And now I dream before it’s night
I’m taking naps to get back to the drama
The lovers lost who I call up when my subconscious sets the scene

Never Be Alone
04:14
|

I don’t know how long I can stay under this pressure
I don’t know how long you can make me wait forever
And if you should feel misplaced,
Would it make this all a waste?
Cause I can see the chapters waiting in our future
I wish that I could make them come a little sooner
But the thing I long to know
Is that we’ll never be alone…
I had a dream last night I was freaking out
You didn’t love me anymore and you wanted out
I woke myself up
And said I’m lucky that my skills as a psychic suck
But sometimes you may find there’s a truth to dreams
Even if they’re not exactly as it might seem
There’s a sign inside
A subsconscious warning that you’ve tried so to hide
I just wish I could know
You won’t leave me on a whim
I just hope that you don’t
See an end before we begin
[chorus]
And if I had God’s ear I would tell him first
Surely we’re all a bit deserving of more self worth
And it’s a sad, sad scene
When we ignore all of the love we so truly need
So i’m reaching down to my very core
Trying to find another way i could love you more
And it’s a joy to try
One of my favorite risks that i could take on as part of life

Absolutely incredible. I play these tracks during Elden Ring, and it completely morphs the feel of the game. Now instead of a doomer, minimalist's suicide tape, the game has these music gems that make it far more enjoyable. Thanks. ❤️
