they say the star that burns twice as bright burns half as long, but that don’t make this feel alright
i got the news when i woke up today, no chance to pray
i just wish that she had more time
it doesn’t feel right to see her go
under the moonlight
god damn, this feels so cold
i turn the music up, cuz i can’t speak
feel her vibrations around me
i hear that i could be anything that i wanna be

i thought i’d give it a try, but now i just can’t get out of this web
i, i, i, i, i-
i see your face in the hallway, i don’t know what to say
but i, i, i, i, i-

glimpse
02:07
|

at first sight, you caught my eye
you know i like that type of guy
now i try to keep you off my mind
cuz otherwise i won’t get by
when i caught a glimpse of you i just, i just, i just-
when i caught a glimpse of you i just, i just, i just-
did you ever think about me outside?
do you ever think about me at night?

wound up
01:04
|

another thing went wrong and i’m not down to figure it out
all i can say is fuck these days
my head’s in the clouds, i’m wound up and strung out
thought you’d be here by now
to help me settle down

non-binary
02:19
|
|||
i’ve got a new perspective
i see that i protected myself
and i think i know why i did it
cuz i was scared to be myself
outside my body, look past the horizon
i saw two planets inside him
i’m only starting to understand what it means
to be non-binary
caught in the middle i start to see, all sides of me
and i start to be unapologetically myself

stay away
03:15
|

it happened by mistake
but i’m the one to blame (to blame)
so i guess i’ll spend the day
by myself, stay away (stay away)
thought i found a routine, now i’m losing my sleep, and burning green leaves
i’m not having sweet dreams, there’s a man on my street smoking and waving at me,
but the damage is done and the future looks bleak, i pretend i’m asleep in the passenger seat, i don’t wanna misspeak
i tried to let you in, but now i’m caught up again, you’re not just my friend
and i might as well just bend to this un-ending wind, my sails have worn thin
could you hear me when i shouted from the waves?
caught up in all this pain, another day i waste
i saw a flicker of your face, but i think i’ve lost my place, i’m lost in outer space
sometimes it’s not the same
we slow danced out in the rain
now i guess i’ll hide away
let my memories fade
