No Hunger 04:44
I’ll take the last bite If you don’t say I’m alright Who put this knot in my chest Who tied it up, you do it best Voids talking to voids No hunger, I’m so paranoid The tangle makes it hard to travel to my stomach sometimes I’m only skin and bone No hunger, now I’m all alone My heart’s a cavern and my insides are a space to worship Who put this knot in my chest Who tied it up, you do it best I’ll take the last bite If you don’t say I’m alright And I’m watching you Like a dove in the sky I’m withered, aching No hunger, now I’m thinking I am a simple girl, I only want to love myself more Now all my clothes are too big And I’m just trying to fit in I need someone I needed Who put this knot in my chest Who tied it up, you do it best I’ll take the last bite If you don’t say I’m alright And I’m watching you I’m watching you In grief In death No hunger will find you
2.
Safety 02:27
I’ve gotta skin my issues It is alright, I am alright Now I’m just a ghost behind these eyes Now that the sun is coming out It’s not my fault, it’s not my fault The warmth decays my insides Blood runs down my palms I should’ve lied more, I should have lied I never even felt the pavement Damaged skin takes time to heal It is okay, I’m alright Forgiveness I will never feel Now I got a scar on my knee Put it there just to remind me Of my safety
3.
Hurt//Hide 02:31
I fear my heart hardens every single day I love to feel rotten and decayed I’m sorry if I haven’t been the best, I can’t say That I’m trying I want to hurt I want to hide Everyone could be him but I’m not sure what I would do anyway What makes a cruel world cruel Exposure to all you I want to be alone I’m sorry if the city makes me feel like I should die I want to hurt I want to hide
4.
Spiny creature Unsheathe your ribs Show the world What’s underneath your skin Light a flame Cast a spell Degrade yourself Crawl back to hell Too thin Scratch the skin Too thin Scratch the skin Spiny creature Lowing song Writhe and dance The whole night long Too thin Scratch the skin Too thin Scratch the skin Spiny Creature Spiny Creature
5.
Ebb and Flow 03:50
It comes and it goes It ebbs and it flows Black waves on the shore Black ice on the roads It reaps and it sows The cavity grows A feeling so low A feeling so low And when it’s numb it’s numb and it’s all my fault Feeling sorry’s all that I can do The crash and the pull A split in the hull Black waves on the walls Black waves in the halls And when it’s numb it’s numb and it’s all my fault And if I keep this up I’ll be nothing at all The feel and the sting Of salt in the veins Oh my God An ache in the chest A helpless unrest It comes and it goes It ebbs and it flows A feeling so low A feeling so low
6.
Vesper 03:06
They beckon sweetly I sing a sable vesper This body is a vessel singing, “Take me as I am” The earth surrounds me Why don’t I jump in? Drown me A sea of green Encompass me I’m filling up my lungs so I Can breathe Made a mistake Need to escape Moved into everything that I Would hate My intuition tells me to run back home I’m on a cliff Singing sweet I want to stay here Give me a reason I’ll pray here Return to dust Let this body become rust Return to dust Let this body become rust
7.
The Descent 03:52
Lately I’ve been feeling too old I’m not sure why I live anymore I miss my family And the love of a house I grew up in I’m torn When I get too old I’ll come undone When there’s nothing left to cry I’ll crawl back home and die I miss the spring air A shelter’s not a home And this body doesn’t feel like my own I can’t stay here But you know I cannot leave I’m torn When I get too old I’ll come undone When there’s nothing left to cry I’ll crawl back home and die
8.
I am alone when you’re with me A festering brain Sometimes death seems so lovely I haven’t been the same I haven’t been sane I’ve been looking for something When I dream I am rotting In gray water Neither near nor far am I Sinking Smothered Sinking Smothered God knows it’s not here God knows it’s not here God knows it’s not here God knows it’s not here When will I Lose myself
9.
To Come Back 05:04
I have my way about this I can’t lose you forever So I wrote you this letter As if it makes it better I don’t know how to come back Lost inside I haven’t been me Weeks feel like a lifetime I want comfort I only find it in you I don’t know how to come back Lost inside I don’t know how to come back Lost inside Feels like the walls are closing in Crushing my mind I don’t know how to come back Left behind Unseen, pulling on my neck And I’ve been so blind I’ll love you always I don’t know how to come back I don’t know how to come back
10.
This feeling is all mine I feel it all the time The saddest compromise I cannot make it on my own The summer turns to fall Looks like the darkest one of all The sun’s been swallowed whole When the summer turns to fall Is this another end? I will not live through it again Feeling weak and thin Oh God, the water’s seeping in The summer turns to fall I fear the weather makes me small Back to my home I’ll crawl When the summer turns to fall The summer turns to fall The summer turns to fall
