Flat Earth 05:12
we are not the same i see the tides have changed and washed away our names and i have slowly faded through the day we are not so sane my eyes are opening with every day i age i wish that i had someone else to blame can you hear the sound of all the people and the answers that theyve found above our flat earth help me touch the ground someday we will die all i can hope is that you follow me in kind theres no need to wait for paradise
2.
i have been asleep for far too long reality decided to move on breathing just to make sure i don’t die but can i really say that I’m alive? did anybody see those shadows dance? on the floor and the walls am i alone again? i think its time that i got out of bed but i don’t think there’ll ever be an end shake my arm and watch my thoughts unfurl hold me to the sky at the end of the world please just tell me what i need to hear before i end up holding on for years can’t you see that i am not alright? or should i try and find some other light? hanging by a single barren thread can you break me out of my own head? i feel like im always standing still can you come and save me i feel like im always almost there can you come and phase me will i ever find my way back down and touch the ground i feel like i need you by my side just to feel like im alive im scared ill follow you till theres holes in the soles of my shoes
3.
please dont pack your bags and please dont leave me all alone please just say my name and please pick up the phone i dont want to stay here take me to another world we can drive for miles all around i cant live without you you are always on my mind pictures that we painted stars we’ll never find and maybe i should calm down maybe i just shouldnt sleep maybe i should fall apart so hopelessly somethings changing something in the way i care we both know you dont belong out there i finally believed the light was on my side i guess back in the clouds here i will hide
4.
i couldve sworn i saw your face but i was lost in space you have been haunting all my dreams now youve torn my seams every ink stain i take off my walls the harder i fall i just want to be left alone i dont wanna go home

im not sleeping well im a broken record but i just cant help but dwell youre a supernova who led my heart down to the gates of hell youve been sleeping everyday every night i held you till your demons were at bay till your eyes were dry till your mother told me that i couldnt stay we havent slept in eternity we were both two souls lost inside internal cities chasing each other through all our bodies cavaties why do i even bother trying to pull myself up from the dirt we both know that i was meant to fall i cant even imagine a day where i dont sit and hope somehow youll be there when i turn around and i miss the antics that i knew her for i miss all the nights where we would pass out laying on the floor and id get up and whisper goodbye through the closing door this all started when i broke my wrist would it turn back time if i could pull you from your shrouded mist until i know for sure ill just pretend you dont exist i can never tell if everything we did was just a way to cope inside our cells and im not sure but there has been a death at the hotel why do people bother with hearts that break and veins that bleed all stars eventually must fall as the night steals the gold of the day and twisted minds tie twisted knots impatiently wound around twisted thoughts

Echoes 06:15
do you remember what you said to me? do you remember ever being free? cause oh my god that year went by so fast and i know that i should leave you in the past if you can’t remember what you said i guess that all these memories are dead wake me and let this be some nightmare i thought that we were almost there shake me and tell me this is unfair ill make it up to you i swear I’m in too deep i think im in too deep im not afraid to die im just afraid that i won’t get to say goodbye do you remember what was on tv? do you remember seeing how i see? should i leave this all where it belongs? or should i stay and sing you one more song even after everything youve said ill put you on a pedestal instead and then i fell backwards into your arms into the echoes of your heart and then i fell apart
8.
we were stranded on a crowded beach you were sitting next to me holding on we just watched the world go round as we heard the booming sounds overhead and i think that ive been holding on too long something tells me youve lost interest in my songs and im sure that long ago you moved on but im not strong we were driving through the night burning under city lights we were free please dont let me fall asleep or burn up all my memories my oh my
