Lakehouse By the Lake

Burning Sunset
Heart-struck blue
Clouds drift through you
Lakehouse rental by the lake
Future farewells soon to make
Another day another drop
Water moves and papers stop
RPGs at eight o'clock
Drawing fields and penguin cock
Nothings happened to the plan
You're stuck with me forever man
Somethings happening with Sam
Someone get him to a hospital
And those days are the best days of my life now
We move apart
We move apart
They go away
Whatever happened to the plan
You said that I would never get rid of you
You said I'd be stuck with you forever
Whatever happened to Sam
He said a lot of things I regret
The small horses regret you too
Skullgirls button mashed
You got me through college
You got me through college
You got me here
And I'll survive with any of you anytime
And I wrote this song while driving using voice to text
Hope I live long enough to see what's next
And it's funny to see how far we've come
And it's sad to see how far we've gone
There is no one here to get fast food with me in the middle of the night
Anymore
And I'm scared to see what happens to some of you and I'm sorry some of you couldn't handle the truth and I just want all of you to be around tomorrow
And it was all of you who taught me how to play guitar
And it was all of you who taught me how to break the law
And it was all of you who told me that I can stand on my own
goodbye

Solar Eclipse
06:19
|

People don't change in a solar eclipse
And before I admit
Its best to forget
People don’t change when they final see it
Its better to leave
Its smarter to flee it
And I know that the thought is so wrong
I should perish the idea
Make myself think about ya
And I know that my days are so long
I should tear off my skin for it
Bury myself in its heart
And the sky goes dark
I will not leave a mark
Mirrors are all about irony
Masking complacency
Slipping it into me
And I'd rip off this mask that ive earned
For a moment of clarity
A crystal clear rarity
And I know that my days are too long
I should tie something down
Force myself into town
I'm eclipsed by the moon
I can only assume
That my stature as is bad for your eyes
And the sky goes dark
I will not leave a mark
And I know I'm not a monster in a purple disguise
But I am just some asshole trying to get by
And this self deprecation is a means to exist
In a society constructed to be won with a kiss
I'm alone.
The sun and the moon are locked in a dance
Its no chance they revolve
Its no chance they return
The sun and the moon are locked in a dance
Its no chance their paths cross
Its no chance we react
But people don't change in a solar eclipse
It takes more

Gaze
05:57
|
|||
In the dark cinema
I walled off every part
Of my heart
I was a metaphor
Feigning flight
Watch as I burn away
Atmosphere
I know I won't
Talk to you
Help me to overcome
Solitude
I do not want to feel
Drawn to you
I was an un-composed
Longitude
I am so afraid to
Open up my heart to
Let another person
Have this power over me
In the dark cinema
I closed off every part
Of my heart
I was a shooting star
Burning up
Catch me before I fall
Down again
Darling
I know I'm not
Here for you
Convince me to
Go beyond
Solitude
I traded happiness
For ignorance
I was a meteor
Burning up
I am so afraid to
Open up my heart to
Let another person
Have this power over me
Please come and take my hand to
Give me room to grow to
Understand that my experience
Means nothing
Maybe I am
Numb to this
Is it Better to live alone the longer life
Better than to stand and fight for brighter light
Never thought I'd open up to anyone
What will happen when I prematurely say we're done
Fear of the body fear of the mind
I don’t think I have what it takes to confront mine
Gonna have to tear down walls to even try
Gonna have to tear down walls to even try
I never knew that living this way wasn't true
Don’t even knows if a person exists like you
Settling for Comfort over happiness
Maybe I should strengthen my defense
All I ever wanted was a getaway
Never really thought I'd half to question living in this way
Suddenly confronted another burning surprise
I can't even process how to contemplate the lie
In the dark cinema
I held you close enough
To my heart
I couldn't tell you what I thought of you
I would communicate if I knew
I hope you can carry two
Maybe I should go beyond
Solitude
Holding you
Along the way ill open up
Its Healthier to grow across several months

First Appearances
03:39
|

I bought a bikini last month
I bought it just because
I got some thigh highs the other day
I got em to feel cute
But I don't but I don't but I don't
And I’ve been thinking a lot about appearances
And what matters the most
And I've been thinking a lot about appearances
And it makes me sick
Its wrong its wrong its wrong
I've been thinking about changing

Conversation
09:46
|
|||
Conversation immediate now
Fascination to spiraling down
An obligation to coalition
The people I love are never around
This Isolation to produce a sound
Perpetuation to sit in a crowd
Self-gratification and masturbation
An ego inflates to silence the sound
The people I love are never around
The people I love are never around
The people I love are never around
And I’ll never change if no one’s around
And I’ll never change if no one’s around
And I will not change if no one’s around
How about I just don’t talk
How about I just don’t try
How about I have a taste
How about you leave this place
My eyes are closed I try to sleep
it take such effort not to think
Her moonlight's comfort beckons me
Its brighter in her mystery
The night of the moon and the day of the sun
The two become one until it is done
She is composed of lines
Tropics and meridians
At the party, never fitting in
I think you know what to talk about
The stereotype persists but I'm doing this for me
A guitar at a party is an excuse to never speak

And we fear failure
I don’t know just what we’re doing
I write a song
And I fear failure
I don’t know just what I’m doing
I write a song
To overcome failure
I don’t know just what I’m doing
I know I’m wrong x3
I write a song
To become stronger
I wrote a song
To overcome my fear of failure
I write a song
To become stronger
I wrote a song
To overcome my fear of failure
To overcome failure
I don’t know just what I’m doing
I know I’m wrong
I write a song
I know I’m wrong
I write a song
And I fear failure
I don’t know just what I’m doing
I write a song
I write a song
I write a song
I write a song
I write
No matter the day
No matter the night
No matter the time
I’m never alright
My instincts
Are clearly against me
My body
Is clearly against me
No matter the day
No matter the night
No matter the time
I've got to fight
My ego
My self-confidence
This hollow song
All inebriated
Over populated
Will I now be sated
I’m unsatisfied
I repeat the same mistakes
I repeat myself
Is repetition necessary
Is this trip really necessary

FINE
06:49

She looked like i could not
It felt right I did not
She looked like she had thought
We knew that she did not
Laptop light no contact
We stand firm we break backs
Observe my obsession
Transcend my regression
And I think I should try something else
Why cant i find anything else
…
And I think I should try something else
Why cant i find anything else
Left alone the place I know I gotta
Find another face I know I have to
Fake another date I know I cannot
Live online
Sheading skin an ear a tail I gotta
Grow fur everywhere I want to
Be consumed within the maw why did I just
Pay for porn
You say I'm fucking fine
Reactive, reaction
You say he’s for fire
Reaction, you divide
You say I'm figured out
Glass eyes abstraction
You say we live to die
Living subtraction

It's Like That
05:21
|
|||
No matter how hard life gets
We will never rise up to the challenge
We reliably only do
Just enough to get by
These people around me
Some better some worse
All do enough to get by
And when I fail in my own way
My friends fail in theirs too
And i can rest somewhat easy
Knowing they’re not perfect too

Going Home
05:43

I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home
He was lonely
And he was empty
And he was watching his Years go by
The birds went wild
And the sky went dark
An important moment was passing him by
And his friends were gone
He thought love was wrong
But maybe he was willing to try
But he said change is for tomorrow now
And I know I'll change tomorrow now
And I better change tomorrow now
And I'm going
And when its time to go
Some day I know
I will see you again
There are days that I feel I can Actually do this
