Leniency
07:29
|
|||
Verse
Under scrutiny
They stare me down
The universe could get comedy for the day
I planned it out
Worked in my head
I am terrified, logic in total disarray
Chorus
I try to find my self-esteem however
Everyone has spotted by now I am
Drowning in my Atlantic anxiety
I try to find a part of me that could have
Overshadowed inner fear but
I’m already exposed by society
Verse
Under Scrutiny
You’re staring me down
I rehearsed the right words and syllables to say
I see your face
They’re watching me
You and everyone got your comedy for the day
Refrain
I would have preferred to attempt this with privacy
I need some leniency can somebody kill me
It would make my humiliation go away
I learned not to go anywhere again
Refrain
This Faux pas is compromising all my sanity
Give me some leniency and just fucking kill me
I just want this memory to go away
And no one throws this in my face again
I plead

Grand Canyons
07:31
|

Verse
Where are you walking from?
What is your situation
Are you needing a place to stay
I don’t want you to spend the night with frostbite
Did no one have empathy
It’s my opportunity
To try to do what’s right
Chorus
How could you do such a thing to yourself
Did you know that duct tape will make it worse
You found it necessary to put
Grand Canyons in your arms
Why would you put yourself through this much pain
Did you know there’s methods to clear your mind
I just can’t wrap my head around your
Grand Canyons in your arms
Verse
Get those booze away from here
Give me an explanation
Why you needed a place to stay
Left on the streets to spend the night with frostbite
In a world with apathy
It’s okay you can crash with me
I sure hope this is right
Bridge
Now I know why
This isn’t a first
They tried, they cried
You showed no effort
Now I know why
In front of someone’s young
They fought, they want
You to fix yourself
Do you know why
They booted you out
You’d never hurt a child
But you inflicted pain
Grand Canyons in your arms
Right in front of a child

Don't Wanna Remember
08:08
|
|||
Verse
Life’s going decent for me
Gradually getting my life together
I continue healing
Despite my scar, I will have forever
I tried arduously to repress
Any thought that might weight me down
I tried arduously to erase
Time for me to grow
Chorus
I’m still recovering after all these years (I don’t wanna remember you)
I am discovering all the strengths in me (I don’t wanna remember you)
Your acts were sickening, they’re still haunting me (I don’t wanna remember you)
But you’re still interesting, the idea is beautiful (I don’t wanna remember you)
Wondering why I can’t rid my mind of you
Verse
I guess things are still good for me
Spotting you again, no big deal
Reopened the wound in me
I’ll ride this out to see how I’ll feel
I tried rigorously to gain strength
From memories which bring me down
I tried rigorously to move on
Time for me to grow
Bridge
I am still struggling after all these years (I don’t wanna remember you)
You’re still reminding me of the me I hate (I don’t wanna remember you)
Was close to leveling the mind and soul (I don’t wanna remember you)
But now I’m back at square one don’t mind me (I don’t wanna remember you)
Looks like you won again, I was doing just fine
Many more years to come to piece together what you’ve broken
Looks like you won again, Kicking myself for weakness
I drank the poison and I wait on you to die

Sorrow Saturation
07:02
|
|||
Verse
In distress for a while now, worry no more
I am here to the rescue now, C’mon let’s take a walk
Tell me all of your story now, I will be all ears
There will be no judgement
You can come to me, I’ll always be here
Honey, could you not cover your face
Chorus
Hey, look at me
Feel free to drown my shoulders, they’ll saturate your sorrows
Come lay by me
Place your head right on my shoulders
I’ll be right here tomorrow morning
Verse
Stay as long as you need dear, new sanctuary
I promise I’ll always be here, you need anything
Happy to see you smile now, to know you’re safe with me
Pain will never find you
You can run to me, my arms are open
Honey never hide your tears away from me
Bridge
Finally, this is real, never felt so happy
Elated, twitter-pated, this smile cannot leave me
Never mind, of course you would
Gradually work your way up
Feeling dense, ignored the obvious signs
Chivalry is the surest way to sleep alone
Just accept you’ll be forever on your own
You’re opportunity, you knocked at her door
She got all she could from you, now she’s moving on
Say goodbye, nullify
Should have known, too good to be true
Throw away, your thought of me
Was never born according to you
Lead me on, now you’re gone
You are moving up in the world now
Feel forlorn, soul is torn
Kick myself fell for another con
Hey, did it again
I’m needing someone’s shoulders to saturate my sorrows
Please, comfort me
I’m drowning in my sorrows, might not be here tomorrow
Hey it is me
I only have a pillow to saturate my sorrows
That was my last leech
Gonna strike the man I see in the mirror
To cut vertical canyons all over me
(Go on live your happy life)
I’m falling asleep
I’m drowning the floor
Saturating my gore
This room’s gonna stink
Making friends with the flies
While I’m falling asleep
Tell the world goodnight
No more exploiting me
Who will notice me gone

Fell in Love with a Face
09:23
|
|||
Verse
Fell in love with a face, a very heavenly face
Chasing someone beautiful who could do no wrong
Fell in love with a thought, a super wonderful thought
Brainstorming how to go about impressing this thought
So in love with this face, there is no absolute way
She’d be too generic just look at this face
I’m running out of time, she doesn’t have much time
I’m giving it up now she’s talking to me
Prechorus
I didn’t quite make it, terrible timing
I will keep striving, Just need refining
Chorus
She’s not interested
I’ll alter my identity now there is always next time
I will keep striving
She’s not interested
Need refining, her preference is binding
Oh well what’s new
What to do
Trying to
Should’ve could’ve would’ve why not
Either way I scared her off again
Verse
Still in love with this face, such an alluring face
Oh well at least I got her talking to me
She told me what she needs, I got whatever she needs
Whatever excuse to get her in front of me
I wonder what she is like, I do not care what she’s like
A face like that, I’ll deal with her cruelty
I am in love with her face, am committed to her face
Til death do us part, the idea and me
Bridge
I believed she was worthwhile (after failing to)
Win her after all this time (of trying to)
On the brighter side of things (despite failing to)
At least I catered to her needs (tried to hard to)
Chorus
I’m not interested
I’ll retain my identity now, knowing my self-worth
I will keep striving
You’re not interesting
Done exploiting, I am ignoring
Avoiding you
What is new?
Leave me be
I don’t need you
You’re generic
I’ve done enough enabling you to just
Use your face for usage of the human
Race, you use your face to cover up your
Vile, heinous soul, robs people of their
Minds, their worth, their souls
Good luck living with yourself

Vent
11:55
|
|||
Verse
It’s been a bit since I have
Put myself out there for the wolves
It has been quite a while ago
Not ready to drown in gatherings
In an era a long time ago
Thought I could be another one
The trial and error got to me
But I could sure use a one on one
Chorus
Come here, I need you here
I need you right by my side
Come here I need you to hear
I need someone to listen to my cry
Verse
Memories are entrapping me
I cannot stop kicking myself
Wouldn’t it be so nice if
I could just do something right for once
If I could achieve normalcy
I’d be able to live with myself
Trial and error fucked with me
I’m in dire need of this one on one
Bridge
It’s been forever since I’ve been worthy of human contact
It’s been a while since they decided to run me out
It is impossible to live with myself remembering
All of my wrongdoings while no one lets me live them down
My sincere apologies burdening you with venting
I really need someone out in the world to care about me
My sincere apologies do you notice me trying
Do you hear me cry for help, is anyone out there
Ending
I understand my existence is so benign I’ll go away far away
Just another faux pas did you have fun humiliating me, I’ll go away
Leave me alone I am way too busy taking my life away, I’ve gone away
If only I could have been born with a slight sense of normalcy, I’ve gone away
