Enough

Enough with the compromise
You got me looking through your eyes
Trying to see with some semblance of self
But I can’t quite get it right
Enough with the perfection
It’s enough damage for life
I’ve no strength, no dignity either
But I’m doing alright
I’ve waited
Enough time, cut in line, rough cut diamond in the ground
I’m crawling
But I know where I’m going, and I’m going now
We are enough
In the face of our failures
We are enough
On the stage of all our flaws
We’re unlovable heathens
Love us just for that reason
So enough, cause I am enough
No less no more
Enough with the disrespect
Enough I’m not yours
It’s my right to decide how I live my life
And who I live it for
I’ve waited
Enough time, cut in line, rough cut diamond in the ground
I’m crawling
But I know where I’m going, and I’m going now
We are enough
In the face of our failures
We are enough
On the stage of all our flaws
We’re unlovable heathens
Love us just for that reason
So enough, cause I am enough
No less no more
(It’s all lies it’s all lies
It’s all lies it’s all lies,
Oh)
We are enough
In the face of our failures
We are enough
On the stage of all our flaws
We’re unlovable heathens
Love us just for that reason
So enough,
Cause I am enough

Brave
04:14
|
|||
Atoms flow
Through our bodies
They become us, then leave us unchanged in our heads
Eyes flow
Life is cruelty
Behind eyes that watch you in a hospital bed
You’re not alone
Not for long
And I
Wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
Brave
I wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
The one to save you
I wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
Brave
Oh
Time flows
Ever changing
Moments with you leave me and are not replaced
I know I’m not alone
But it won’t be long
And I
Wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
Brave
I wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
The one to save you
I wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
Brave
Oh
Hear me, she stays with me
If justice exists you won’t keep us away
Wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
Brave
I wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
The one to save you
I wish I could, wish I could, wish I could be
Brave
Oh

Whiskey
03:28

I’ve got a stash of Whiskey, in case
Someone accidentally looks like you
Who I wish I was
For someone I wish I never knew
I still write about you,
I don’t even like you
Giving you attention again
But then it’s always been about you
I don’t care, I don’t mind
I’ll just write a song about you that you won’t hear
But sometimes someone else has your eyes
And the floor disappears
Oh I just stare and I don’t mind
I swear I never wanted to be with you
You’re such a conceited friend
I caught you every time you fell
For me again
I wouldn’t mind but why’d you make my knees so weak
I could barely stand
To lift you up and watch you walk away again
I know I said I loved you once or twice
But each time I was incredibly drunk
Even if I did that ship has sailed,
Failed smashed to bits and those bits have sunk
I still write about you, why?
I don’t even miss you, do I?
Giving you headspace again what an idiot am I
I don’t care, I don’t mind
I’ll just write a song about you that you won’t hear
But sometimes someone else has your eyes
And the floor disappears
Oh I just stare and I don’t mind
I swear I never wanted to be with you
You’re such a conceited friend
I caught you every time you fell
For me again
I wouldn’t mind but why’d you make my knees so weak
I could barely stand
To lift you up and watch you walk away again
I swear I just got confused
Trying too hard to deserve you
Each time you came crawling back
For one more disappearing act
And I’ll drink til I don’t care my dear
I’m glad you don’t care enough to hear
Sometimes someone else has your eyes and the floor disappears
I swear I never loved you
You’re such a conceited friend
I caught you every time you fell
For me again
I wouldn’t mind but why’d you make my knees so weak
I could barely stand
I lifted you up and watched you walk away again
And again
Well never again

Ribcage
03:47
|
|||
I have never been afraid of death
But there’s this hummingbird in my chest
Banging against my ribs with every breath
Til I can’t breathe
And I have never been afraid of love
As a right of passage, as a punishment
Waiting for something back to feel good enough
Unloved, unloving
The truth is, that I’m really scared
If good things never last
Then this is too good to bear
But
Oh, oh,
I can hear my ribcage
Growing to make space for you
I terrify myself with the thought of life
Obsessed with endings til the day I die
And I meet my thoughts on the finish line
Having missed everything
The truth is, that it’s all pretend
I don’t have that kind of strength
To face that all things will end
But
Oh, oh,
I can hear my ribcage
Growing to make space for you
