Kerosene 04:01
to sleep, perchance to dream to dream, perchance to sleep to sleep, perchance to grieve to grieve, perchance to sleep subconsciously absorbing defeat (catching up on all my sleep while missing out on everything) refusal becomes me (subconsciously reminded of my patterns, faults, and weak defeats) my arms into fine dust crumble (i won't tell you, you can't tell me) painstakingly i admit i am shallow (i won't tell you, you can help me) fatal focus on flesh survival (i won't tell you, you can't tell me) nascent self-inflicted cycle (i won't tell you, you can't help me) so i'll ignite and burn brightly short-lived, searing, our smoke billows through the trees

Caesura 02:45
i don't need to understand you what difference does it make you tried all you could to stand you you had all you could take god knows you tried i know you tried it happens to the best of us (and you were) you were better than all of us (you were) god knows i could i know i could

constantly falling into old habits of taking a step back i’m finally counting on all of my friends while keeping up a state where i’m renowned for knowing what’s best and catching onto you i’m finally counting on my second guess after getting myself ahead of you with an overridden case of pale regret while I’m sanctioned off in sorrow it seems we’re in a place where were falling apart but where was I to witness that there even was a start and it’s finally occurring that I’ll never make a run or even bring up the truth while you’re running around so draw out a prophecy and send me away i'm better at you than me and it’s all still the same i’m uncomfortable knowing that it’s just a game

Hush 04:24
silence denotates submission long-withstanding absent diction language fails me words mean nothing all i offer despite friction all i offer is transition
