Too much of a good thing crippling anxiety When shit is going wrong you sob in your room no one knows they don’t gotta You just thought of another what if Take a breath and sit down You’re body’s achin' you’re demonstrating what burnout looks like But you gotta live before you die right Everything in moderation Take it slow and have some patience Hit the road and keep in mind it’s not about the destination Everything in moderation Including moderation It’s so okay if you find that your mind is constantly racing mmm ooh ooh

Red Door 05:31

Hello, it's me, your frenemy Being seen never again Alone, alone, alone, lucky Tell me to tend to the basil Stirring the pot, I quit, forgot Tasteless even with seasoning A tree, some dirt, it couldn't hurt To save me for later A common sense, no goals and yet I feel a future dire Garnish my dish, my paycheck fix Remind me how to be threatening I crashed and split my lip to bits There's copper in my wallet My bike, my bus- it's late, I fuss I will get to work later I want to be a good soul, not a pure soul, not a bad soul I want to be a good soul, not a bad soul, not a pure soul x2

We live to see the day feeling like we don’t deserve it at all When you see it my way you can try to enjoy this better You don’t have to listen to me or take my advice or whatever Just listen to your heartbeat rhythm in your feet they hurt more than ever Be kind be kind to yourself To yourself try it out Try it out Who knows maybe it’s easy Ooooh Ooooh

Late Is Late 04:55
lyrics

"Let's go out", but I can't imagine enjoying myself around too many people being much too much too loud After all it's my day off of work and I'm tired and I just want to relax now Trust me please when I say it sounds pleasant, but I'm hesitant to float amongst the crowd with my drink on Echoing the Karaoke bar, forced to start up a conversation and be present enough not to drift apart or drown I'll Sleepx2 Let's be clear, I'll buy a beer or two I wanna be close to you and watch you have a good time Ask me anything you want to know about me I'll be honest and understanding til it's late and head home for the night Truth be told, I'm feeling old and ready to settle down or be alone I want to travel the world but also stay dormant Excuses, excuses, excuses I'm ready to cover an extra shift at work if it means I don't have to work it on the dance floor

Reach You 03:44
lyrics

I just wanna reach you Just wanna help you Just wanna hurt you Just want to make you feel inside I just wanna touch you Just wanna be near you Want to make sure you’re feeling alright I wanna know, I wanna know Can you hear me singing Do you care for what I have to say Everything from my heart for you For me, for you, from me to you Consider it a thanks for everything I just wanna reach you Just wanna help you Just wanna wow you Just want to make you feel inside I just wanna hush you just wanna be here with you all Want to make sure you’re feeling alright Is it lost on you Everything that I do Well you shake my hand at the very end We pretend that we’re good friends Like we’re not just some more lonely people clinging to each other’s assumed entitlement to validity of our existence It’s expensive We’re persistent Trying not to be defensive now Leaves your mouth feeling real sour Getting more bitter by the hour Later you’ll go home, take a hot shower Oh gee, guess I couldn’t resist Opening my mouth and spilling it out Gee whiz Cool beans let’s see If I can guarantee a better part of me Hit me up if I make the list I’m sorry I don’t trust damn near anyone Even though I trust damn near everyone I get hurt, I get hurt it’s a pattern Loyalty- it is what I am after Past experience always fearing possibilities of the day Bracing you for impact before you’re even on your way You want it all- love, power, fame, clean fucking dishes and better pay Stuck between wanting to leave and wanting to stay Can’t commit but I’ll try anyway I wanna I just wanna reach you Just wanna help you Just wanna wow you Just want to make you feel inside I just wanna hush you Just wanna be here with you all Want to make sure you’re feeling fine I just wanna reach you Just wanna sell my soul to you Just wanna work you Just want to make you feel something inside now I just wanna touch you I just want to see you for who you really are Think, I think, I wanna be here all night

Said I don't have a lot to say just sign my ukulele Noticed that you made a few people cry tonight -I was one of them Got a lot on your mind and a lot in your soul And the rest is resting in your morning cereal bowl -I don't know if you eat cereal Your friends are missed by your friends And you might miss the feeling of not having to miss anyone at all We could feel your heart it was soft but heavy that night We'd like to hold your heart all nice the way your songs make us all feel so nice Played in a sanctuary haven't been there since 18 The sounds that echoed in that room were taking time away from inside of us They could bring those walls tumbling down, down, down, down, down So the people inside of them can see what more they can do now, now, now outside of them See the people in need Want to see the people in need Seeing isn't always believing But those who see and seek to hear and after hearing use their minds to utilize the feeling that they felt in their hearts deep inside to figure out how to use their hands to tie their shoes to walk to plan to maybe plant some foods or clean the water or spread a good mood like the butter on your friends toast or make the most of the least you've got Or cool off some strangers who've gotten much too hot in the sun Or teach someone to love or learn to love from afar Or scoop up your lovers hand when you're depressed and it is hard to hold on to Or hold back someone's hair while they are puking in the stall or sign somebody's ukulele when they don’t even know you at all, Signs somebody’s ukulele when you don't know them at all

We have everything under the sun Don’t go in the dark Cannot be alone in a house of fun Paint it down to pistol Ricochet, I know you’ve got your ideas in late of night Insist on Grey’s Anatomy and chicken and rice Angels ain’t a model Devil’s got a lot to say When you think you got ‘em Then they always get away Iffins it’s a problem Thinkin’ that we’ll think and pray Angels ain’t a model Angels ain’t a model You carry on with such a zest for such an angry life It boils in you and moves through making sure you’re cooked just right Dare lose your grip, a tiny slip, you think you heard a lie Set up your fence if it makes sense ’til your picked up tonight Angels ain’t a model Devil’s gotta lot to say When you think you got ‘em Then they always get away Iffins it’s a problem Thinkin’ that we’ll think and pray Angels ain’t a model Angels ain’t a model You carry on with such a zest for such an angry life It boils in you and moves through making sure you’re cooked just right Dare lose your grip, a tiny slip, you think you heard a lie

Paper Planes 03:05

My body’s been sore Don’t want to bend myself backwards or forwards anymore Feeling so tired Felt like I’ve been walking ‘round for miles It’s been a long time coming Ready for loving myself and my body and oh my god I’m leaving old behind Feeling aligned Feeling fine now I am just a paper plane Folding into myself to find my way I am a paper plane Now I understand there’s no limitations Forced to take control Over my life once and for all Self parenting’s rather difficult I made my moves Headed to the doctors hoping for good news I got it, I got it, thank you to the benefits office Stroke of luck, Can’t wait to touch my skin- I’m crawling out again I am just a paper plane folding into myself to hide my pain I am a paper plane I understand there’s no limitations My body’s been sore

Heads roll Constant living Sitting tight rustling through paper Eating rice Entertainment Never walking again Loss for lameness, wheels and coffee Busy Busy Busy Oh So busy Busy panicked people Terrifying World on fire Gas it up x2 And lie to a million puppy faces Fingernails Always watching Twiddle and whittle away Chipping for no contest Busy Busy Busy Oh So busy Busy fuckin people Busy Busy Busy Oh So busy Busy panicked people
