Thirty 02:45
As you’re growing old Your friends will come and go Everything goes by Quicker than it did before The harder you hold on The more it slips through your fingers Remember everything we said we’d do together Nothing much has changed Except for all the greys Where does it go next? I’m trying my fucking best At least at this speed I won’t be dying alone in bed I’m not scared of wasting my only life When I’m with you
2.
It’s never easy to say goodbye Spent thirty-six sore hours Waiting by your bedside I hope you know I’m sorry I let you down Checked in on your parents They’re doing okay Nothing we can do To make you more comfortable The bitter taste of coffee In this dimly lit room Is nothing compared To the suffering you’ve been though Collapsing to my knees I held your hands so softly Prayed that you would sleep through This nightmare of an ending I whispered in your ear I told you it was okay Go back to sleep Try not to fight it

Pacemaker 03:17
You feel your sins crawling on your back You died before, now we can’t relax I saw you clawing through the hall Your blood was on the floor I can’t believe I felt sorry for you But I don’t anymore You’ve been through it all Your teeth are black and gold At least by your account You did it to yourself You turned away our help

Jaune 03:18
How many times can a year bring you down? It sucks you think you deserve this You’ve had some real bad luck But you picked yourself back up Fuck this year and all that weight on your shoulders I’ve got a belly full of milk and five missing teeth Nothing’s ever by the book I saw you cry when you opened the letter I said that I bet that things will get better Fuck this year; it’s because of you things got better You convinced me to wait out the weather Through all the dark, you gave me light We worked through the pain Now everything’s alright

Homebody 05:17
I had so many things that I wanted to say You came back to my room And you wanted to stay But it wasn’t for me It was because of the rain Let’s stay inside today We’ll watch the weather through the window I can’t stand to leave my room I can’t stand to face your family So we stay Maybe we’ll get something done for once As I regain the tiniest bit of my confidence You take it away
6.
Don’t go home yet Everybody wants you here Spend a little more time Drink a little more wine

Black Sands 03:13
Stop the car please I want to take your photograph While the light’s still good I haven’t seen the sun For four or five long days It’s making me stupid I haven’t seen you smile For four or five long days It’s making me even more stupid
