Before Then

Hung up on my regrets and I can’t stop remembering
The bad things I did, the shit that I said
25 years went by, I’m just now learning what I’m like
And those intricacies inside of my head
It's kind of hard to see
If life is better for me
Old habits stress me out
I'm going up and down
Look back on lives well spent
My lies I still repent
Work hard to reinvent
But that's all before then
16 minutes go by and snap back to reality
This happens a lot and I can't speak
Suicidal thoughts no more as I lay down on the cold floor
As I look up in defeat and feel my back's sore
I know it's hard to tell
If I'm still doing well
And see how far I've come
Nights like these, I feel dumb
Self-destruct and repeat
Fall down and scrape my knees
Survive and bleed the scene
It's hard to just be me
This time next year, I'll send some letters
Some near and some far, I'll wish you'll do better
I hope you'll grow and soon it turns winter
Snow falls again, but I'll be back before then

내가 진짜라고 누가 그래?
솔직히 모르겠어
내 인생을 내팽개치는 것 같아
나는 지금까지 걱정하지 않았다
이제 나를 받아주겠니?
당신나 사랑 가치가?
하늘이 파랗게
바다가 붉어진
이해가 왜안돼?
이해가 왜안돼?
공기가 희박하다
피부가 부스러지
이해가 왜안돼?
이해가 왜안돼?
Once this feels like it's home
I won't ever let go
No one close can even grasp
The length that this feeling of guilt needs to last
I promise I won't let it slide
Cultural meanings abide
Confide and comfortably bleed
Into this facet that makes me me
--------------------------------------------------
Who says I'm real
Honestly, I don't know
I feel like I'm throwing my life away
I didn't worry about it until now
Will you accept me now?
Is it worth your love?
The sky is blue
red in the sea
Why don't you understand?
Why don't you understand?
The air is thin
My skin is crumbly
Why don't you understand?
Why don't you understand?
Once this feels like it's home
I won't ever let go
No one close can even grasp
The length that this feeling of guilt needs to last
I promise I won't let it slide
Cultural meanings abide
Confide and comfortably bleed
Into this facet that makes me me

Hey, I'm sorry bout the time
I know it's getting late
I just wanna talk about
Everything inside of your head
I've called a dozen times
And left a million texts
Something to think about
Something to forgive and forget
And I just miss you
You've been away for so long
Will you pick up the phone?
I thought so hard about it
Nothing could go wrong
Having late night conversations
About what's getting you down
Just you and me, we'll talk until the morning
I guess it probably wasn't meant to be
So, it's coming down to this
Your abandonment
And I've been in that thought for so long
Don't how I'm getting out this time
Maybe we should quit
These automatic three line texts we seem to send out
Unreal talk and falsified intent
It doesn't make sense
I thought we were friends
I can listen
Oh, lean your head on my shoulder
I'll still be here if you're down
And I won't make a sound
It's been like this for too long
It's a wonder I'm around
Biting tongues and making wishes
I kinda wanna go home
Will you pick up your phone?
We'll talk until the morning
I guess it probably wasn't meant to be
I guess it probably wasn't meant to be

What Comes After
02:32

I only wish that I could see
Just what you all think of me
Been stuck with myself for way too long
Not saying it's your business
Nor is it mine
But these days, I think about it all the time
And I'm feeling reminiscent
I can't believe how far I've come
I'm exploding with real laughter
Thinking about what comes after
Feeling so alone (it's okay it's fine!)
No one to grab hold (it's okay it's fine!)
Someone I can miss (it's okay it's fine!)
To make sense of bliss (it's okay it's fine!)
Won't you be my friend? (it's okay it's fine!)
Walk into the end (it's okay it's fine!)
Feeling full of love (it's okay it's fine!)
Rising up above (it's okay it's fine!)
I got this feeling that I ain't nothing
And I'll leave it all behind me
But until then, I'll keep waiting
For the sun and what comes after for me

I'll feel cool, periodically
But when it's nights like these I wish I could clearly dream
You say I'm too much, more than you can take
And when I get like this, you wish I would go away
Here we go now
Feelings unknown
Simmer and blister
Pop them all away
Move out of state
To get some space
Panic, all frantic
Wash it all down, no aftertaste
He doesn't want me there
Hhe can't stand me
If I could find my way back by winter
Would you promise you'd still be there for me?
I can't turn it off
Brain leaking thoughts
I can't find the space
To turn run away
Like yesterday
Clouds taste like pain
They won't wash away
They won't wash away
Throw me a bone
I've been all alone
I can't memorize
Rules set in stone
I'll work overtime
To try and get it right
I wanna go back home
I wanna go back home

These Things Take Time

It's me, myself, and I
My mind's not there, it's fine
I'm getting scared, it's late
You said you'd be here
It's already passed 8
Can you tell me why you hate me?
We made a deal and you can't go back
I'm wiping out picking up your slack
You must be joking, it's not funny
I wanna talk, oh is that a crime?
I'll tell myself that these things just take time
I'll wait by my phone
A day, a month, a year
It's hard to formulate
And there's no reason
Why I'm knee deep in self-hate and yet I wonder why
You can't call me? It's that easy
I'm taking back all the praise that I gave and say
Something bad but take it to my grave
I'm getting anxious, into darkness
I can't embrace the fact you're gone
I'm hangin' on and hopin' you'll call me at dawn
I know better and you know better
Don't you remember those times that we spent in your car?
Getting drinks at the bar?
Looking up at the stars
When you said that you'd miss me?
I know better but you don't
Oh, how it seems to me
I see so clearly
You can forget me
You can forget me

Sometimes, I’ll read the words to your letters
And watch the time as it passes by
Yet, still, I’ll try to get in touch with a feeling
I can’t exist without reason
I’ll sit in silence as I rot away
It’s better this way
And I’ll hear you breathe so softly
On my sheets, it soothes me
I’m at peace, no one can stop me
It’s hard for me to let things go
The more know you know
A symphony of excuses flow
Down to the bone
I still appreciate everything you do and say
It’s hard to let it go

All together, we move forward
You and me and possibly everything in between
Now and forever in the silence
When there's no words or a cue
You know I would choose you
Casting shadows on your house
Leaving kisses on your mouth
I'm so dramatic with my words
So shut me up and tell me what I'm worth
I know I've said it, but honestly
I feel better knowing you're with me
Parked in a driveway or your front door
There's no one else that I love more
There's no one else that I love more
Taking pictures of us in space
Getting first in a three-leg-race
Eating fried wings reluctantly
Cooking steaks and fries perfectly
I'll be honest, when I see you smile
It makes life to be that worthwhile
No one has my heart except for you
Cuz I always want to be with you
I just always want to be with you
