I've been waking up without a
memory of where I am
But your song still feels
like home
Voices like sparks
showering down on my skin
Making my blood clean
Thank you for your soul
For bringing me to life
with a single line
You make me keep hoping
the rain will come

"Life Vest"
I cannot feel
If I should use you as my life vest
Or let you gently float downstream
Tell everyone the same thing
"Tears calcify to heal the broken parts"
I'm full of bad bones
And you're all good
But sometimes I think
I'd rather break my own heart
Than stay intact just to keep alive
"Europe"
Your scent's still hanging on my skin
Call me "darling"
Call me "darling" again
You won't surface unless your
poison is matched
Yet I'm still rushing to you
Oh, pretty boy
Sometimes I worry
Because only you can hear me
when I whisper
And pretty boy
I think sometimes you worry
Because you want to wake up
next to me
Xanax dreams
And vanilla incense
No "we"
No "us"
Nothing is ours
Nothing ever will be ours
You can visit Europe
"You can even visit more than once"
But you can't live there
Distance
Fear
and Language Barriers
Quarantines
and Currency Exchange
You'll just dangle a one-way ticket
in front of my lips
And snatch it away when I bite
This well-traveled heart can only stretch so far
So don't call me "darling"
Don't call me "darling" again
Call me "darling"
Call me "darling" again
You won't surface unless your
poison is matched
Yet I'm still rushing to you
Oh, pretty boy
Sometimes I worry
Because only you can hear me
when I whisper
And pretty boy
I think sometimes you worry
Because you want to wake up
next to me
Xanax dreams
And vanilla incense
No "we"
No "us"
Nothing is ours
Nothing ever will be ours
You can visit Europe
"You can even visit more than once"
But you can't live there
Distance
Fear
and Language Barriers
Quarantines
and Currency Exchange
You'll just dangle a one-way ticket
in front of my lips
And snatch it away when I bite
This well-traveled heart can only stretch so far
So don't call me "darling"
Don't call me "darling" again
