Eclipse

You were celestial, my ocean tide
And I was a crystal ball, full of your light
And you were so calm and collected that night
When I walked home alone and left my love for you behind
I was the sun, you were the moon
When you passed in front of me
Shutting me out, back of the room
Cause all we do is disagree
You cover me, you cover me
You were a guiding star, my Polaris
But you led me way too far, you pulled me in
And I know I'm nothing to you now
A flash behind your eyes that's just so easy to block out
I was the sun, you were the moon
When you passed in front of me
Shutting me out, back of the room
Cause all we do is disagree
You cover me, you cover me
You never touched me like you meant it
Always just out of my reach
All that time I thought we were heaven
I thought we were heaven and you let me believe
I thought we were heaven (you took everything back)
I thought we were heaven (with interest)
I thought we were heaven (I'm missing parts of me)
I thought we were heaven (that weren't yours to begin with)
I was the sun, you were the moon
When you passed in front of me
Shutting me out, back of the room
Cause all we do is disagree
You cover me, you cover me
I was the sun, you were the moon
When you passed in front of me
Putting me down, second to you
A whole new catastrophe
You cover me, you cover me

Stars on the Ceiling
02:50
|
|||
|
I got caught up in your orbit
Drawn toward you through the crowd
And I will not try to fight it
Let's go somewhere else this whole place is kinda loud
Oh, how can I escape this feeling?
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
Stars on the ceiling
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
Oh, how can I escape this feeling?
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
Stars on the ceiling
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
I am ultraviolet, autopilot
Hands all over you
And I kinda like it knowing I got
Nothing else to do
Oh, how can I escape this feeling?
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
Stars on the ceiling
Kissing under stars on the ceiling
And we'll be hanging on Mars
Chillin on Venus
Sitting on Neptune
Kissing under stars on the ceiling
Join me with the planets
Find me on the moon
We'll be dipping our toes into the rings of Saturn soon
Oh, how can I escape this feeling?
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
Stars on the ceiling
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
Oh, how can I escape this feeling?
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
Stars on the ceiling
We're kissing under stars on the ceiling
And we'll be hanging on Mars
Chilling on Venus
Sitting on Neptune
Kissing under stars on the ceiling
And we'll be hanging on Mars
Chilling on Venus
Sitting on Neptune
Kissing under stars on the ceiling

Heavy
03:00
|
|||
|
A single shiver through my whole body
And the quickening pace of my cold heartbeat
I still can't figure out just quite why I feel so heavy
So heavy
When silence seems to be the only way
That I can even begin to think straight
And I still don't know the reason why I feel so heavy
So heavy
I'm heavy, not trying to weigh you down
But all of me is breaking breaking
I am heavy, I am heavy
Open fire without a warning
Cause I've been holding every small thing in
And I wonder how I don't know why I feel so heavy
So heavy
I'm heavy, not trying to weigh you down
But all of me is breaking breaking
I am heavy, I am heavy
So heavy for something so empty
I don't need you keeping me steady
I'll take half as much as you let me
You're not who I'm trying to be
I'm heavy, words I cannot say aloud
And all of me is breaking breaking down
I'm heavy, I am heavy
I'm heavy, not trying to weigh you down
But all of me is breaking breaking
I am heavy, I am heavy

Giving
03:37
|
|||
|
You say just wait it's a mess of a day
But I'm giving up on you,
I, I'm giving up on you
And you tell me this is temporary
But I'm giving up on you
I, I'm giving up on you
I don’t think I ask for too much
But what you’re giving me is just not enough
For me to love you so if you’ve given up
Then could you act like it, act like it?
You say just wait it's a mess of a day
But I'm giving up on you,
I, I'm giving up on you
And you tell me this is temporary
But I'm giving up on you
I, I'm giving up on you
You tell me not to worry that you’re always leaving me on seen
But I can’t help but think it’s because you’re not really into me
You don’t answer my calls you never have the time
So you tell me to hold on and keep me on the line
And I’ve been trying to keep all that we have alive
And you can’t tell me that you’re sorry this time
You say just wait it's a mess of a day
But I'm giving up on you,
I, I'm giving up on you
And you tell me this is temporary
But I'm giving up on you
I, I'm giving up on you
You tell me not to worry that you’re always leaving me on seen
But I can’t help but think it’s because you’re not really into me
Maybe I'm just needy but I'll say it if you won't
I want you to love me I've been feeling like you don't
All you gotta do is say you wanna be alone
But don't let me keep calling if you won't pick up the phone
I'm giving up on you
I'm giving up on you
You say just wait it's a mess of a day
But I'm giving up on you,
I, I'm giving up on you
And you tell me this is temporary
But I'm giving up on you
I, I'm giving up on you
You tell me not to worry that you’re always leaving me on seen
But I can’t help but think it’s because you’re not really into me
I've heard this line, too many times
And I'm giving up on you
I, I'm giving up on you

Hot Water
03:43
|
|||
|
Counting back from ten, I try to slow my breath again
Sinking further down, than arms extend
Leave a mark so blue, in your distinctive shape
Something I could never wash away
I know I am worth the things that I give up
So I am done asking for love
Cause I don't want to rely on hot water to keep me alive
I know we won't always have what we need to survive
You've been here longer
And you should've known
Now more than ever that I deserve better
Than cold and shallow
Did I leave the faucet on, is that why you're so cold?
Acting like the only one feeling low
You did not deserve, the things that I gave up
And I am done asking for love
And I'm so tired of drowning just to breathe
I keep my head beneath the surface hoping that you'll remind me
Why I jumped in to begin with cause the water's draining now
You don't help me when my oxygen is running out
And I don't want to rely on hot water to keep me alive
I know we won't always have what we need to survive
You've been here longer than me
So you should've known
Now more than ever that I deserve better
Than cold and shallow

I Won't Ask
03:32
|
|||
|
Slow down
Breathe in, breathe out
And pray that I never see you around
And I can tell that you're not holding me above
You say I'm easier, easier to love
I know you tell your friends what you're thinking of
Just let me go and we'll be better off
And I won't ask for more, won't ask for more
Than you've given
And I won't ask for more, won't ask for more
Cause I know you wouldn't listen
I say I feel like you don't want me
And you act like you're in love
Until I'm happy
But I, I can tell that you're not holding me above
You say I'm easier, easier to love
I know you tell your friends what you're thinking of
Just let me go and we'll be better off
And I won't ask for more, won't ask for more
Than you've given
I won't ask for more, won't ask for more
Cause I know you wouldn't listen

Ghost
04:49

I met a girl in August, I was still with you
She made my heart flutter, but I didn't need to wonder
What people like that could do
Knew I was happy living by the rules
But you know me, I'm so intrigued
By the thought of something new
And I thought I was strong enough
Thought nothing's gonna break together
I had no plans to ever take apart forever
But now I'm a ghost that nobody knows
Floating from lover to lover cause I can't be owned
You're passing right through me, I'm losing control
I'm trying to tell myself it's better to let go
I'm just a ghost, I'm just a ghost
I met a boy just like you, but a little less kind
Thought he knew everything there was to know
But he thought that he was mine
Met another one and realized
I was looking for you in every line
I just couldn't find you in their eyes
And I thought I was strong enough
Thought nothing's gonna break together
I had no plans to ever take apart forever
But now I'm a ghost that nobody knows
Floating from lover to lover cause I can't be owned
You're passing right through me, I'm losing control
I'm trying to tell myself, It's better to let go
No one ever has to know
I'm a little troubled but I'm not alone
Take my hand before you go
Touch my cheek and tell me when you'll be home
My ghost
But now I'm a ghost that nobody knows
Floating from lover to lover cause I can't be owned
I'm just a shadow, smaller than my bones
I'd ask if you love me but I can't handle a "no"
I'm just a ghost that nobody knows
Floating from lover to lover cause I can't be owned
I'm just a shadow, smaller than my bones
You leave when I answer, but you're still made of gold
I'm just a ghost, I'm just a ghost
I'm just a ghost, I'm just a ghost
I'm just a ghost

Mercury
04:52
|

|
You reach out, I pull away
I know I told you I was here to stay
Backwards and moving fast
And here I thought that we were gonna last
I started sleeping with a light on
Cause you feel like him in the dark
I hear you whispering it's over but I've still been marked
I can't touch you anymore
It's not the same, it's not the same
I can't touch you anymore
There's still mercury in my veins, my veins
Mercury, it's breaking me
Mercury, it's breaking me
You're out there, I feel you now
Keeping you farther than my arms can reach out
The cold air and flashbacks
How could I know that I was the attack?
I started sleeping with a light on
Cause you feel like him in the dark
I hear you whispering it's over but I've still been marked
I can't touch you anymore
It's not the same, it's not the same
I can't touch you anymore
There's still mercury in my veins, my veins
Mercury, it's breaking me
Mercury, it's breaking me
And the ground is so much softer down here
But the vines are growing over me
If I lay down I know I'll disappear
And my sorrows with me
I started sleeping with a light on
Cause you feel like him in the dark
I hear you whispering it's over but I've still been marked
I can't touch you anymore
It's not the same, it's not the same
I can't touch you anymore
There's still mercury in my veins, my veins
Mercury, it's breaking me
Mercury, it's breaking me

Creepy
02:31
|

|
We said goodbye for a reason
So tell me what you don't understand
You hang out here like it's Eden
And you act like you don't know who I am
I don't go out cause you're all over
In my coffee shop and my grocery store
We're playing a game of who gets where first
But I can't lay claim to what I didn't earn
I'm asking you why you can't stick to your own land?
Lately I can't breathe and whenever I reach for my throat there's your hand
I sneak around these days
Since you've taken over this house
You're always in my way
And it's getting kinda creepy now
Creepy now
It's getting kinda creepy now
I won't wait for you to stray
So I can leave my room
I won't hide, you can criticize
Every single move
But it's getting kinda creepy now
It's getting kinda creepy now

Inside Out
03:41
|

|
Do you think of me? Do you think of me?
In your dark and empty space
Not a thing could take my place
Do you think of me?
This ain't my first rodeo
It's not as good as it gets
I'll write you 100 letters that I'll never send
Don't you act like I'm still your baby
You were the one who said you didn't want me
How dare you say you miss me now?
You turned my heart inside out
You turned my heart inside out
You turned my heart inside out
I have a habit of choosing people that I can't survive
I'm going 90 in a 55 now, you
Say you've been thinking got thoughts of me still in your head
But you don't know if you feel it yet
This ain't my first rodeo
It's not as good as it gets
I'll write you 100 letters that I'll never send
Don't you act like I'm still your baby
You were the one who said you didn't want me
How dare you say you miss me now?
You turned my heart inside out
You turned my heart inside out
You turned my heart inside out
So I'll write you six apologies without ever saying I'm sorry
Cause it doesn't look any better in gold
And I thought I could convey enough
To make you wanna stay in love with me
But I get that's the way it goes
This ain't my first rodeo
It's not as good as it gets
I'll write you 100 letters that I'll never send
I'll turn your heart inside out
I'll turn your heart inside out, oh
Don't you act like I'm still your baby
You were the one who said you didn't want me
How dare you say you miss me now?
You turned my heart inside out
You turned my heart inside out
You turned my heart inside out
(Inside out, inside out)
(Inside out)
(Inside out, inside out, inside out)
(Inside out)
(Inside out)
(Inside out)

No Sympathy
03:11
|
|||
|
Something smelled like you, now I'm back in your room
Trying to figure you out, by the way that you move
I blocked your number, everyone you know
My friends left me for you cause your mouth is filled with gold, so
Watch me paint you black
I've got no sympathy
And I live for the attack
No sympathy, no sympathy
So you break me down, til there's nothing to get
Jump at every sound, but I'd die if you left
I blocked your number, everyone you know
My friends left me for you cause your mouth is filled with gold, so
Watch me paint you black
I've got no sympathy
And I live for the attack
No sympathy, no sympathy
No sympathy, no sympathy
I think we'd be better strangers, if we never meet again
I think we'd make better strangers, strangers than friends
I think we'd be better strangers, let just never speak again
I think we'd make better strangers than friends
I blocked your number, everyone you know
My friends left me for you cause your mouth is filled with gold, so
Watch me paint you black
I've got no sympathy
And I live for the attack
No sympathy, no sympathy
No sympathy, no sympathy
Something smelled like you, now I'm back in your room
Trying not to fall right back into you

Knots
04:09
|

|
It's a long long rope, and I'm at the end
Pulling and tugging, trying to move forward again
You're pressing on my lungs, and I'm taking the blame
For hurting myself in the most unconventional ways
And there are days I find it hard to stand
But I am done saying I can't
I will make new friends and you're gonna be missing
I will take new pictures and make sure you're not in them
And I'll get better cause I promised that I would
You hurt me more than you should
I'm a little off, I try to pretend
Fake it until all, my thoughts come out normal again
Scrubbing at my skin, trying to get clean
I still feel you on me in ways that nobody can see
And there are days I find it hard to stand
But I am done saying I can't
I will make new friends and you're gonna be missing
I will take new pictures and make sure you're not in them
And I'll get better cause I promised that I would
You hurt me more than you should
I'm in knots, tangled up
I'd have fought til I spilled my guts
I will take it easy
Til nothing's pulling at me
And I will make new friends and you're gonna be missing
I will take new pictures and make sure you're not in them
One day the thought of you won't make me sick to the core
You won't hurt me anymore
You won't hurt me anymore
