haunted 04:49
I feel like I am disintegrating, Into this atmosphere. I thought I moved past this, But it’s hard when your trauma Is wrapped around my mind. I can sense the dark shadow Haunting me, And I wish that it would just go home. Within the noise, I feel my heart sink into my bones As I realize I’m out of place again. I can’t hear me. The colors melt away As my eyelids shut down, And the memories flood away from me. I can’t hear me. I dream about Death almost every night and I Wonder if my elders are here, But it wakes me in a hot muggy sweat And i don’t want to feel it anymore. I can sense the dark shadow Haunting me, And I wish that it would just go home.

Hubbard, OH 04:31
fall, like leaves and feathers on trampolines and i surrender (2x) and climb your towers and climb until I fall like snow on red glass (2x) and try not to sink as i descend underneath Your cold dark waves (2x) Like snow on red glass (2x) So I surrender (2x)

past lives 04:05
What else can I say To make you relate On all of my own hate I know that I can’t make You open up your mind But - Inside, I know you’ll find You feel this way Why do they always say, “Life is such you feel too much” I know what I feel inside Of this sensible heart It’s all too hard I won’t change Addicted can mean so much For me it’s my own pain That keeps me sane It’s why I find I relate To where you place the blame My view is in full frame Of these past lives

I'm a reflection, of every person I meet Absorbing their image, and claiming it my own I am not my true self He's no better, but you're no worse Looking in the mirror, lately recognizing reconcile the self was on the shelf with solemn stares and a sheltered smile tell the child, “you’re getting existential up in here!!” i’ve been taking shots of satre for eventual cups of cheer ‘cause bitter helps me taste the sweets sugar cane, took the pain i think i’ll switch to stevia while putting sugar in my veins wuski atuk on the boards, faces in the mirror hearing all the voices in my head so clear i’m walking into my reflection never coming back black intensified the darkness, i live inside the track bring your sweater— it’s cold inside the hearse she’s no better and you’re no worse She's no better, but you're no worse Reflecting reflections in my own pool Of solemn solidarity I see myself at the bottom, breathing out their air I found myself again, but it wasn't here You're no better, but we're no worse They're no better, but I'm no worse. when reflecting reflections, I'm sure you feel the same.

In the midst of sleep Two pillows embrace the skull Making the soul believe It is lying against Your warm, soft skin. Forgetting all that is wrong Moving towards the right light. Do you feel my frequencies? Do you feel my frequencies, searching the starlight? In the mountains they yell, "Come back down, come back down." (3x) Lilacs falling on the silver lake, reflecting shadows on crystals. Crimson cheeks and moonlight, I'm falling down, I'm falling down (3x) I can live with the feeling.

Pluviophile 03:46
Drip drop down on the grooved pavement, I like the sound of that. When your eyes turn grey like the rain clouds, they become so captivating. I'm a pluviophile. I find peace in the dreary overcasts. My dear, you bring the same comfort to me. I love the rain more than the sun. The smell of the water overwhelms my senses, and it brings me home. Similarly, I feel at home wrapped up in your arms; in your bed. The sound of your voice, soothes me like the waves that crash on the shoreline. And I am falling in love with you; you feel like warm rain I love the rain more than the sun. I love the rain more than the sun. I think I love you more than rain.

Hour 05:08
I've been thinking ‘bout springtime daisies and bluebells rising up from the frozen ground like we did last year used to talk about the rising sun the orange and the pink streams breaking through the night darkness like we did last year no more blackness in my skies you made the clouds go I see the color spectrum in your eyes you know that it's okay to let the trauma go go 'head bring light back into your day your hands around my waist brought me back to reality I hope my friendly words bring you some clarity in the midst of a loud crowd anxiety bursts through but your voice guides me again in the darkest hour they say the pain fades away and that's enough for me shine a light to guide you home in the darkest hour

sugar veins 04:23
with your words on my neck, and your laugh in my lungs - I plunge deeper into your cool blue eyes. I taste salt water in the air, and sweet care on your lips - From sugar veins. So, I plunge deeper into your cool blue eyes.

Leave the light on Dimmed caramel hues Small berry September, to soothe What else am I supposed to do, when I’m sitting ‘round waiting for you? I didn’t ask to be assembled on your mattress. Connected contact certified by the madness. But, Leave the light on Dimmed caramel hues Small berry September, to soothe I don’t know how you expect me to move, With strings pulling me close to you. It seems your rain left too soon, Causing flowers in your mind to wither with the summer. I just leave the light on Maybe then you’ll come home soon

For all things must come and go, like waves that crash on the earth below. I have not been good to you or me. For that, I must replace my sorrows. Your raincloud eyes, reflect water droplets, and mine are stable earth tones. You water my soul, as I hope to provide foundation for yours. For the roots, To nourish our growth into the next life Of this new found tree.
