Who the Hell 01:48
I feel sad, I feel scared Feel I'm running to a trap Don't know where, don't know how Just try not to make a sound Can it be? Who is he? Am I stuck inside a dream? Don't know where, don't know how Just try not to make a sound I can't see anything so who the hell is he? He keeps me up all night and tells me I'm not clean My vision's blurry come on who the hell is he? He tells me I'm no good, it's better if I was free Tell me who is he Push me back, shake my core I just can't take anymore I've been here for too long We can make this all go wrong Why can't you take a leave? Fight or flight's not up to me I can't see! I can't breathe! When you're there so close to me I can't see anything so who the hell is he? He keeps me up all night and tells me I'm not clean My vision's blurry come on who the hell is he? He tells me I'm no good, it's better if I was free Tell me who is he

Can someone tell me how to feel? I don’t know this situation well I should’ve known this is what I signed up for Or did I know it all it’s hard to tell I will be here waiting You know that I will I will be here waiting By my windowsill I’ve been chasing oh so long But you just love to lead me on I must admit that I did love the ride But when will you finally let me off You know where to find me Past the drunken hall You know where to find me You know where I fall You know what happened on the beach You must’ve known it better than I could Tell me was it all really worth it? Time wasted on Malibu I will be here waiting I could be your dream You know where to find me Heart monopoly You said you didn’t want to break my heart into a million tiny pieces but You didn’t know that you said that while There was a hammer above my A hammer above my- !

<interlude> 01:16
The world is slowing My senses feel numb I’m losing control of my words and my tongue My fingers don’t fit in my skin like a glove My hands don’t cover my shell My hands can’t cover my shell I’m standing so still I can hear the world break I see the lights chasing I’m floating through space I see the horizon I’m free from the sun The mirror doesn’t show who I am The mirror doesn’t know who I am

Hunger 04:09
I’m distressed They said you wouldn’t want to know I’m obsessed How the fuck do you have that unearthly glow? I’m compressed My body’s disproportional It’s just less Less painful for me than just letting go Why are you so far away from me? I feel like I can see you at the bottom of my cup I just want you next to me To whisper drunken slurs See how your body churns And tell you all the ways I’d make you scream I’m a mess They say I’m too emotional My heart doesn’t fit in my chest And you are the cause, you are the cause! Why are you so far away from me? I feel like I can see you at the bottom of my cup I just want you next to me To whisper drunken slurs See how your body churns And tell you all the ways I’d make you scream Am I the only one / Not just the only one who / Needs you like anyone / All because, all because / Before I met you / Urging my mind into / Cold waters I can’t seem to be / Keeping all this misery (hey!) Can’t compete With you I know I cannot win All to you, can’t resist Am I good enough? Am I good enough? Why are you so far away from me? I feel like I can see you at the bottom of my cup! I just want you next to me To whisper drunken slurs See how your body churns Exhilarate Dive in your membrane Let me be your fling And I can be your king And tell you all the ways I’d make you scream

Native Blood 03:36
Does she have some native blood? Dancing on her own two feet If you cut her would she bleed? Never thought it’d get this good I find my tongue bit in half Thought of talk just don’t talk back Maybe I just wasn’t meant For great things for great men kept Maybe your mundane approach How it looks like through your eyes When you speak it envies time Got me hooked just like a drug Do you have some native blood? Dancing echoes ‘round my tongue I am locked and I am numb Please give me back what’s mine you took
