My Oasis 03:28
Send me good vibes whatever that means I've got a bad case of logorrhea 4,500 weeks in a lifetime Are not enough to forgive and forget you I've got my eyes set on my oasis I cannot waste any time I'm tired of being in two different places But I'll never cross that line Send thoughts and prayers so I can survive Another month counting down the hours I'm in my prime then why do I try To be someone that I can't relate to
3.
I Am Fine 05:09
In a fit of anger I never thought that I would do The thought that comes to me in rushes The one that makes me forget of you Is it desperation Or maybe something I can choose If I do it tomorrow You know I wouldn't do that to you
4.
I've lived in a bubble I built for myself (one you cannot enter) I've stayed out of trouble as long as I felt (but you heard my cries for help) I dodged every bullet and stayed out of hell (at the cost of heaven) There is no reason why you should yell (but I want you to) Pull, pull me out of my cell Close to you I buried myself away For far too long I heard every line as far as I can tell (as far as I remember) I crack a smile but it's a hard sell (because you know me all to well) I climbed up the mountain right after I fell (with you at my side) There is no going back in my shell (but I want you to)

Honey Girl 03:48
So sweet, my honey girl There's nowhere I'd rather be In the world But I seem to need to be reminded Because of my anxiety Let's be what we want to be Together we can shape our reality But I seem to need to be reminded That this is how it's meant to be I set my eyes on the ocean The one that makes me think of you Don't mean to make a commotion My mind doesn't love me like you do It scares me to be so alone Although I'd rather be inside my home You see what it means to be me You're my outside, you're the one that looks out for me

She Glows 04:52
She knows she is the best part of me She glows so in the dark I can see

Stuck in a torrent of illusion It won't be easy to find Just like the ones that came before me Busy wasting my time By design forgetting every feeling For no reason or rhyme The books were thrown up on the ceiling Will they be read, or were they just a waste of time Blessings to everyone around me I hope you get peace of mind Something has been stirring deep inside me It finds me each and every day and night Entry is only for the bright ones Who have no reasons to try I bring something you've never heard of Or it could be just another terrible lie

Squeamish 04:38
I've spent my days yearning For something I shouldn't want The price you pay is concerning For living who you are I am a representation Of something that I am not Took long to tune in the station That plays the sound of my heart
11.
(we're gonna try something different, check it out) (skirr) I've got guts but my memory is sour Cause I can't put my finger on a time that I didn't cower Under pressure I'm not good Watch me fail hour after hour Just like my HP Pavilion I can't hold any power I started writing this album as a suicide note And it took so long that I hated everything that I wrote So I though tot myself maybe if I never released it I could delay delay the inevitable sweet releases Don't forget to forget now, man Don't forget to forget you're all I ever had (pick it up) I need peace but all I do is declare war My sanity is hinged upon you like hinges on a door But I know it gets bad when you can't even feel sad Praying that my only fan knows that he's all that I have Drinking spilled milk for dessert I know that it's gonna hurt When I explain to my momma how it never occurred To her to check on me, man Maybe this one's on me, yeah Cause I'm just too good at hiding feelings I know you understand
12.
If I remember clearly it happened on an afternoon You were setting fire to my heart just like you always do Your touch like embers wakes me up before it's time to go Send back to sender, I'd be crazy not to let you know I like to play with fire, burn the house down into dust Open the door and step inside and quickly combust You are the rain please wash away my feelings of disgust Bathe in your waters hearts of steel are built to never rust You lit this fire no it's never gonna go away Just like my troubles they are definitely here to stay You are a snow fall coat my fears with white another day Give me till morning before the gray clouds start to fade away
