Never taught to love
I'm sorry
Always prone to accident
I'm sorry
Despondent response
I'm sorry
Never in good conscience
I'm sorry
What's it called when you
only attract abusers
What's it called when you're
a beggar, not a chooser
Doubting what I feel
I'm sorry
I don't want to disassociate
I'm sorry
It's not even my fault but
I'm sorry
I don't even know why
I'm sorry
What's it called when you
only attract abusers
What's it called when you're
a beggar, not a chooser
Don't ask me to articulate
I'm sorry
Wouldn't want to hear it anyways
I'm sorry
It's time to pick yourself up
I'm sorry
I won't mourn what I won't miss
I'm sorry
What's it called when you
only attract abusers
What's it called when you're
a beggar, not a chooser
It's gonna be tough on your own
motivation to finally grow
and this will be good for you
and this will be good for me
Don't protect what you don't want to
What's it called when you
only attract abusers
What's it called when you're
a beggar, not a chooser

We're getting older now
There's no time out
You don't have to say
you're on your way down
There's two parts of us
that are fated
There's two parts of us
we're ashamed of
Mixing blood
It's getting cold
Do what your told
Before we go
There's a prayer worth saving
There's a prayer worth learning
There's a prayer worth saving
There's a prayer worth, worth learning
We thought we were a detective but
They needed more than that
The world's so fucked up
More to give than there is to take
One last trick to learn
You're afraid to share
Without you
We'd end up going nowhere
It's time to let go
of your travels
It's time to let go
of your battles
Wasted life
You're turning gold
Tell us what it's like
When you're all talk
There's a prayer worth saving
There's a prayer worth learning
There's a prayer worth saving
There's a prayer worth, worth learning
We thought we were a detective but
They needed more than that
The world's so fucked up
More to give than there is to take

Claim to smell the fear
that's not in here
I don't have to care
about my heir
They say there's some treasure
in learning to love yourself
We won't say we doubt it, but
come on
There's a lot to say
but I won't say it
Get a fucking life
I won't save this
Insecure with that
dark complex
It's a fucking joke
can't you take it

We don't want to say
what we can't obey
You don't remind me
of anyone else
What if we could
speak underwater
Weightless
Breathing
Bubbles on our lips
Don't question
your prescience
Truth is an omen
not a passion
Bound in means
of what's believed
Class is a reason
To fall in love
How can we confirm
what we don't know
You got the word
but not the stress
You got the word
but not the stress
You got the word
I'm not my best
Class is a reason
to fall in love
You got the word
but not the stress
You got the word
but not the stress
You got the word
I'm not my best

Easy easy easy
whatcha supposed to do
when you find out
just what you're going through
Calm calm calm
don't say you're gone
we don't like the sand
that you built your house on
We don't know
where we go when
We don't know
where we go when
See the lightbulb
as it's slowly dimming
we're on our way out
yeah, that's a given
No, we're not saying
that we're done fighting
but we'll admit
we were born tired
We can't say
where the sinners go
it's an orange peel
thrown into the cyclone
Better to die
than to give up
or that's what you said
when you had your chin up
We don't know
where we go when
We don't know
where we go when
See the lightbulb
as it's slowly dimming
we're on our way out
yeah, that's a given
No, we're not saying
that we're done fighting
but we'll admit
we were born tired
What good is a light
that can't provide
all the warmth you need
oh, you just reclined
Time to break out
of the stuff you're made of
release yourself
and spread it around

What's it like to feel
like it's already over
when you've accepted
that you're a spectator
Nothing to hold onto now
but what's around
Don't go and trick yourself out
It's all in the ground
No one will fucking leave
No one will ever breathe
So close the sun down
on your hometown
There goes the rose
that dies in its bud
Tell me all the ways it's just
not your fault
Don't look away now
or you'll miss
what you always wanted
Oh yeah
It's what you wanted
Oh no
Where's your claim to time
It's just a dervish yeah
Sure there's a lot to miss
But I think I'm ready to let go
No one will fucking leave
No one will ever breathe

Wishing what you can't have
What you never knew
There's a hole in your heart
out of which you grew
To fear
the closeness of a moon's tear
To give up
that summer sweat
that you never tasted
I don't know what you're made of
of misery, just like me
I don't know what you're of
and I guess I'll never find out
Never is
when you're yearning for what's really there
Never is
when you want to feel the other's stare
Never is
a risky situation
Never is
an apparition
Heal the part of you
that you never trusted
Is it confidence
to feel busted
Forgive the memories
I shared with you
Don't latch
onto what you couldn't ever be
And there's a ghost
that's a construct
of all midnights
spent so sleepless
And there's a ghost
that's a construct
of our mistakes
I don't know what you're made of
of misery, just like me
I don't know what you're of
and I guess I'll never find out
Never is
when you're yearning for what's really there
Never is
when you want to feel the other's stare
Never is
a risky situation
Never is
an apparition
Never is
Never is
Never is never
Haunted by
a palm print on the window
Haven't the urge
to clean it
Maybe I should
frame it
Maybe I should
break it
And there's a ghost
that's a construct
of all midnights
spent so sleepless
And there's a ghost
that's a construct
of our mistakes
I don't know what you're made of
of misery, just like me
I don't know what you're of
and I guess I'll never find out

You know you whispered in my ear
No no
Don't close your eyes
Take a rip
Take a trip

Touching and distance
Not directly asking for acceleration
Sun in, book open
Greater sense of self
By narrowing the term
Strength to luck
Our memories are good but distorted
Finding the found out
Diving deep for what
We were missing all along
Time to lay them out in the sun
Let them shrink, let them run
Some driftwood
Knowing we don't have to do it again
Pesticide dreams
who sits around our fire
"V" instead of very
Telling anyone to pass, to fuck off
End of ends
Livin's not the lie we let it become
Time to lay them out in the sun
Let them shrink, let them run
But then we are having a personal spring. Attracted to anyone, not entirely gloomy when looking in the drip-dappled mirror by our sometimes made bed. Living is not the lie we let it become.
Always grasping for the worst
Success in the sense of failure
Turn gold, not gold, then darker, like purple, so black. Maybe it's a little of what we cannot have. Groomed for change, the subtle shift of what's dead into less dead.
Always grasping for the worst
Success in the sense of failure
Time to lay them out in the sun
Let them shrink, let them run
