Into Time 04:16
my hands are getting cold my face is growing thin my friends are turning old but i’m just coming in you’re older than you look your hands are made of time you never learned to smile but i don’t seem to mind i’m always having fun i never waste no dime you keep me on the run i’m running into time this all so over grown this all so into light you’re living on your own i’m sleeping into night my shoes have holes and holes my heart has more and more you’re in a normal house i’m looking at your door and you’re headed somewhere warm and i’m going somewhere else and you seem to know the time why can’t i know myself i’m always having fun i never waste no dime you keep me on the run i’m running into time my shoes have holes and holes my heart has more and more when you want to leave that house i’ll be waiting at that door

you figure it out again you say it out loud again not feeling so proud again you’re stuck on the ground again you make it okay again you say what you say again delay and delay again delay and repeat you’re over your dose again you’re feeling the breeze again you’re freezing the air again you’re locking the door again you’re getting the point again you’re breaking the ice you made delay and delay again delay and repeat i’m not some body talking myself i ain’t talking for me i am not somebody you’re not so lonely talking to your friends ain’t talking my house down shooting up like heads now

Run 03:42
face always out of air air thicker in this place this place is wrapped up in your mind run you’re scared of having time so you cover it up like you’re really just that tough you’re a tough guy but you’re making you low, did you really want to go i don’t think so now you’re painting the walls, you think you’ve got them all and you’re not wrong but you’re static in space with that tough look on your face in your own place
7.
Stick 04:14
empty face open space running late this is not the only place look away redeploy redirect redisplay i’m not in the mood today look away i say something and i love someone and i hurt someone and i touch someone and i stay undone and i lay in bed and i lock the door and i shake my head and i feel it come, i feel it go i can watch it leave, it’ll leave me slow but i found some head and its got this ache i see the sun but i’m not quite straight open high only face lonely feet seeing all the people on the cta look away count my steps burn and burn light my way coming toward me coughing almost every day look away i say something and i love someone and i hurt someone and i touch someone and i stay undone and i lay in bed and i lock the door and i shake my head and i feel it come, i feel it go i can watch it leave, it’ll leave me slow but i found some head and its got this ache i see the sun but i’m not quite straight and i got the news but i’m breaking too i go blue and blue i go blue and blue if it’s true it’s true and i got some glue you make it stick cause you got some too
8.
Lover 04:00
when i’m eyes under the cover i look until i see the other i tell myself about the lover you just smile until it’s over collect me now cause i feel older you keep me warm when it gets colder i cool you off when you’re all hothead and we go underwater instead and when i sleep i sleep with everything under me and when i’m down i’m down and only you’re real to me and when i dream i dream the things that you want to be and when i die i die with you still inside of me and when i’m high not high as when you’re here next to me and when i think i think i’m not much of anything and when i laugh i laugh and only you laugh with me and when you cried i cried most everything out of me
