It’s a lost cause
Well well baby it’s a lost cause
And you can sit there, say it’s my fault
If this is what you wanted, watch it pop off
You’re the company you keep
Guess we both got our rocks off
I can feel the clench in your jaw
And I can feel sweat on the door knob
And I cant help to cry when our clothes off
You make rock bottom look so soft
White lines up in your loft
Where you sacrifice me
I ain’t never been so crossed
Lift you out the tub when loves lost
I haven’t seen the real you in like so long
I could tell you where we went wrong
But we can’t think straight with the overhead light on
Bout time I wrote you a song
Crystallized lies and excuses just to get numb
Well, well, baby it’s a lost cause
And you can sit there, say it’s my fault
If this is what you wanted, watch it pop off
You’re the company you keep
Guess we both got our rocks off
I can feel the clench in your jaw
And I can feel sweat on the door knob
And I cant help to cry when our clothes off
You make rock bottom look so soft
White lines up in your loft
Where you sacrifice me
I ain’t never been so crossed
Lift you out the tub when the loves lost
I haven’t seen the real you in like so long
I could tell you where we went wrong
But we can’t think straight w the overhead light on
Bout time I wrote you a song
Crystallized lies and excuses just to get numb

Split Lip

Watched you crash out
For the past year
Under my nose
Spinning around now
In circles
Here we go
Under low ceilings, coping, healing
Watching you float
I’m so tired out
TV in the background
I wanna go home
And some days I can’t pretend
Some days I miss my friends
But it ain't gonna work like this, ain’t gonna work like this
And I hate to see you sick
The more I talk I split my lip
Can’t look away now, the look on your face now
This is it
I watched you crash out
For the past year
Under my nose
Spinning around now
In circles
Here we go
Under low ceilings, coping, healing
Watching you float
I’m so tired out
TV in the background
I wanna go home

Faithless, I’m wasted away
Faithless, I’m wasted away
Faithless, I’m wasted away
I fear I don’t feel the same
I weighed out all the possibilities
I laid there and prayed for our recovery
I know that I’ll miss your company
And all your little subtleties
Sparks that lit up like faraday
I’ll miss the way you looked when you were under me
Emotional debt
Heart that burns through my chest
Learned to swallow it back
While you kept turning your head
Make it okay, okay
I been in my own way, own way
You kept me up so late, so late
Pacing up and down the hallway
Let go of the good that you saw in me
Sit back, wipe your brain clean
6 feet, lay me to rest in peace
Conspired in all of the casualties
You knew and saw what we couldn’t be
I tried if that counts for anything
I’m done searching for clarity
I’ll blend in with the ghosts that are following me
Faithless, I’m wasted away
I fear I don’t feel the same
I weighed out all the possibilities
I laid there and prayed for our recovery
I know that I’ll miss your company
And all your little subtleties
Sparks that lit up like faraday
I’ll miss the way you looked when you were under me
Emotional debt
Heart that burns through my chest
Learned to swallow it back
While you kept turning your head
Make it okay, okay
I been in my own way, own way
You kept me up so late, so late
Pacing up and down the hallway

You weren't ready for me
Things that I gave was shit that you didn’t see
Bitch I’m a prodigy
Burned a few bridges to get where I gotta be
Know they ain’t fond of me
But I don’t care, like really like honestly
Lie on my name
Turn to a ghost
Enemies dead to me
Angled disloyalty
Overridden by addiction
No, I’m not taking this lightly
Hear it in my inflection
Using my words as a weapon
Guilty of causing affliction
I am done being nice
I’m keeping it business
I like to thrive in the pain
A little sadistic but it keep me sane
You gon remember my name
Like voices that scratch at your brain
All the shit that I say
Ringing your ears
Cause I am not one to be played
Effortless
Temperance
Effortless
Temperance
Ever made dreams come true
For people that want you to lose
You make some sickening moves
And it’ll catch up to you soon
It’ll catch up to you soon
Shift in your eyes, can’t look at the truth
Wanna play god, he’ll wanna play too
Wanna play god, he’ll wanna play you
And you gonna lose
