The Trash Lullabies (free) 03:27
Ive become so withered and weathered and im only held together by hope that is receding like the sun, and if the night presents such bleak darkness ill wlecome it hardly open heartedly, because its the part of me that vaguely feels anything. Run down, broken, helpless, hopless, peg me one or all above ive become the equivalent of every song i wrote down and never sung, thats useless undone. Ive never caught a break but i catch myself breaking, at shear thought of anything changing, like im destined to live half-filled hopes and relive broken dreams it seems that im unraveling at the seams, and the garments i reap are the same ones ive sewen, if guilt is grown then ive made a garden of my own, ive dirtied up these hands, but these idle hands haven’t touched palm to palm in far too long to rewrite all these wrongs, these mistakes are chiseled in bone and in flesh, just allow me to confess the sins that weigh like a anchor on my chest. these bones cling to fading flesh.

Scars are tombstones of faith Swallow up, Up the night, Like gasping air, Breathing through, Drowning water, My fist clenched for praying staked as pleading, Losing sleep gain a lot of dreaming, Losing faith but still I am believing And I sip burnt coffee to pass the fucking time Every one of us is holding anchors wrapped tightly in our arms pressed firmly on our chest, For I hold mine closer than my breath, Lets go overboard the water is so fine, In one moment watch love become redefined, Were lost sailors what the hell’d you find, I went through the remains of an old and buried chest, And buried in my chest was regret that I had kept, Theres more breaking, breaking here than just the waves, I pierce my ship in so many ways, Were all sinking ships that itch to stay a float, My faith had been the mast my sins they weather down my boat.

Black Doors (free) 04:44
Your stuff still stands like tombstones in our rundown apartment, And I pass them with the formality of a beautiful scenery that’s become mundane, And maybe if your belongings still continue to collect dust, Then this iron ship of trust will rust, Ill convince myself youll return. And silence screams insecurities from point blank range, A house is a house but a home is not the same, With teeth hanging in your mouth encased like bat perched in dark caves, The words I want to say roll off my tongue like salt filled waves, Only to fall short of your shore, And I still mistake my heartbeat for footsteps, If its worth now to then, I changed the light in the den, Maybe ill see things clearly. So ill rot inside the skin Ive been hinged upon the end But never bothered to begin Ive been dissecting this dialogue With so many rights That I had circled wrong And I was swimming through your waves What felt like anchors on my arms You were all that I did see You were each beat inside my heart But now your tide is changing quick And I am drowning in all this Im am still drowning in all of this My heart still beats nostalgia Every lied that i Had to , to confess Was another stone Another stone upon chest, Now I struggle to define Which one is stealing my last breath The person that I call myself I have been trying to forget We past all the bridges burnt and all ships we sank and that see of guilt I was force to drink. Behind these black doors I hide Till a piece of peace resides Ill let hope steal my eyes You see im moving My heart beats off rust For we were a monument That’s made, made of sand I threw my words in the wind, And head into my hands Cause I don’t know the difference between Recovery and being jaded I keep my heart safe behind These black doors
