shut up my satan love is sickening i know that it won’t bring me anything i’d like to see you turn it off when you’ve forgotten the last time that you were alive guess what i know you don’t wanna look at me that’s why i force you to watch through the bleeding of angels i’d like to see you turn it off when you’ve forgotten the last time that you were alive

my pillow 04:39
three cousins boxed up tightly look out below the one's avoiding sleep and craving the glow so low solo magic majesty this is not your tragedy now that we are older we all still know so don't regret the harvest regret the sow so low solo magic majesty this is not your tragedy lit up and lit my pillow you can say you wanted everything you got lit up and lit my head up we will never ever speak of this again when it is all around you and it is so so low solo magic majesty this is not your tragedy lit up and lit my pillow you can say you wanted everything you got lit up and lit my head up you can say you wanted everything you got

it's present in every face i see the conversations and even in the eyes something big is bubbling underneath the surface of our little town i won't nail it to the wall but this is an open ended call to take me there and let down your hair sing to me i don't want to be alone something big is bubbling underneath the surface of our little town

dead deer 03:08
your mom woke us up early still dark outside it felt like we had just fallen asleep we dressed in silence too tired to speak made our way up the carpeted stairs your mom made us breakfast tried to pretend that it was just another day i tried hard to remember what had gone down but all i got were flashes running by the barn your brother coming home trying and failing to take my shoes off getting in the car knowing you were lost not knowing who was driving the next thing i know it's the garden of eden where are they taking us? what did we do? i saw a dead deer in the road on the way home pick up the pieces of broken bone i should have known i should have known

so you said it was good enough believe me when i've had enough and someone had to be the one to bring it up so here it is: we are not cursed with an affliction we are blessed with a beautiful addiction be where you want to do what you want to do what you want to do all the good people pack it up move away where it's green enough and someone had to be the one to bring it up
7.
all of the birds are gone as are the leaves my friends can hibernate prematurely i'll save up food i will keep me warm to hell with the sun i've got things to do there's never been this much room i can finally breathe you were boring me anyway hope you sleep well under ice look closely bet your money that my eyes and mouth are gonna be open wide full of pride oh but nobody dies
