fm death 05:15
I’ll drive my way To the south side of the bay I’ll rip this cage Don’t ask if I’m okay I’m hurting deep There’s fire under me If I can’t sleep I’ll drive into the sea

Parry limelight Bright stars like an angel falling Torn beach, inside All red, not unlike my dreaming Don’t sleep, nine eyes Forget that it’s always watching Unlearn, inside See all that the water lets you You so bad girl you’re burning it up You so bad girl you’re burning it up You so bad girl you’re burning it up You so bad girl you’re burning it up

panic text 03:14
I like to think I understand what I say The time is slowing down, the birdie tweets, the clouds roll in, the fluids speak You’re all I think about, but what did I say? Beneath the whirling sky, the page won’t read, I stroke my skin, I fold and crease I like to think you feel the same way as me Waiting on and off, I’m in too deep, my arms begin to atrophy I want to know you’re as desperate as me That when I’m asleep you wait for me, the time goes by so endlessly But what do I know? Hello? Hello? Hello? I’m burning up inside so watch me cry and watch me go Panic through the window Hello? Hello? Hello? I’m burning up inside so watch me cry and watch me go I like to think I’m good at speaking my mind But I’ve gone doubtful now, my legs are weak, the light falls down, I just can’t speak This keeps me up at night, just what did I say? The guilt is writhing on, under my skin, the hatred starts to push me in I must believe that you have the same fear It’s just one thought I need to kill that dream, convince my mind you hated me I must believe that I’m not on my own But I’m lost for words, I can’t be sure, I look straight down, I start to turn But what do I know? Hello? Hello? Hello? I’m burning up inside so watch me cry and watch me go Panic through the window Hello? Hello? Hello? I’m burning up inside so watch me cry and watch me go

I can’t stand the silence When the night falls on me Everyone’s asleep except me I can’t stand the pressure When your username turns green Everyone’s asleep except me Do you love me? Or just my images of pain? It’s all the same, I could talk with you forever but I don’t even know your name I can’t deal with faces, but this is enough for me Everyone’s a text box on the screen It’s like I’m travelling outwards, With the stars, with you and me Everything I wanted is on the screen Do you love me? Or just my images of pain? It’s all the same, I could talk with you forever but I don’t even know your name

on below 05:18
Above the fairest plieves, the undisturbed air will fly free Say, are the birds due today? I can’t sleep A bridge, inside of my heart, the wooden supports are rebuilt Hark, there’s a noise in the dark, something sleek May I stop pretending that I’m not obsessed Can I say I deserve to be happy again Say what you see, because nothing feels real Do you feel the same way as me? He sings, jubilant under the trees, the wind holds his song just for me Say, will he see me today? I can’t sleep He waits, patiently primed with a smile, something I cannot explain Hark, we will meet in the dark, we’ll be free May I stop pretending that I’m not obsessed Can I say I deserve to be happy again Say what you see, because nothing feels real Do you feel the same way as me?

riverbed 06:31
When we are alone Where will we go? By the waterfall? Perhaps along the riverbed? One day I’ll be there My love, just wait When the sun goes down Where will we sleep? By the maplewood fire? Or by the windowsill? One day I’ll be there My love, just wait When we are apart Where will I go? By the waterfall? Perhaps along the riverbed? One day you’ll be here My love, just wait
