I can feel my body breaking down, California sun
I can see the colors spiral out, nowhere left to run
Don’t leave so soon, when the darkness closes in
We burned out bright, I’m sorry it’s the end
All our curses go away, washed out by a wave (such constant dread)
All our curses go away, there’s nothing left to save (I’m better off dead)
I’m better off dead
I can’t do it alone just bury my bones off the coast on a western shore
Caught in the foam I sink like a stone I’m lost on the ocean floor
It’s killing me to know, it’s killing me again
Have I let you down now
Have I let you down
It’s all in your head, such constant dread
All I wanna know is, “Am I better off dead?”
Search for a light, look toward the sky
Don’t be afraid to die

The Rain Just Follows Me
03:11
|
|||
Stormy seas and sleepless nights
4am and my eyes are open wide
All night I wonder why the rain just follows me
Life’s gone it’s passed me by
I’ve lived it all under pitch black skies
Violet days and violent nights
The rain just follows me
Oh I’ll head for the coast
And let the sunlight warm my bones
The coldest Pacific Ocean won’t wash it all away
Postcards and mile markers are burning up my days
If I let you go, where will you go
Will you fall in love again
Or will the rain just follow me and rust this heart instead
A full moon with hollow eyes
4am can I make it through the night
Sometimes I wonder why the rain just follows me
Dead ends and power lines
I’ve seen it all through light gray eyes
I wish my friends would never die
The rain just swallows me
Go, run away
This black cloud, these dark times
The rain just follows me
Go, run away
These cold nights I can’t escape
The rain just follows me

Holy Coast
03:42
|

I lost myself along the way, as the sparks turns to a blaze
We’ve come too far just to let it go
Counting scars and counting days, we fell so hard like summer rain
We’ve come too far just to let it go
The holy coast won’t leave me all alone
And I’ll never come home again
When the darkness overcomes
The space between the silence and the scream
Halfway home or halfway gone
When the darkness overcomes
The space between the nightmare and the dream
Halfway home or halfway gone
When the darkness overcomes
I lost myself down in the haze, these two hearts beat out of phase
We’ve come too far just to let it go
What we love we love to hate
This lock and key is out of date
We’ve come too far just to let it go
These nights keep haunting me, I’m lost inside this dream
It slowly pulls me towards this darkness
These nights keep haunting me, I’m lost inside this darkness

Tired And Alone
04:05
|

For all those nights I felt like nothing at all
I couldn’t close my eyes, I couldn’t wake you up
For all of the nights I felt it slipping away
Couldn’t stop my heart, nothing left to say
And you can feel the weight come crashing down
And I remember the summer that we met
The winter that you left, and everything between
The years have since gone by, I hope you’re doing fine
And if this finds you well, you save a prayer for me
For all those nights I couldn’t stop my mind
I couldn’t turn it off I fell so far behind
I got lost in the lines, haunted in my head
Driving through the night, never even slept
And I can feel the flame fading out
I’m tired of being tired, tired and alone
You’re not alone

Thunder In Our Hearts
03:45
|

Please don’t let me drown
I’ve been running through the night
Trying not to flatline
We’ve got thunder in our hearts
With lightning in our eyes
The walls are closing in
Am I closer to the end
We’ve got thunder in our hearts
But are we on the mend
I’ve been burning through the daylight
Trying not to lose my mind
I’ve been burning through the daylight
But I’m running out of time
We get lost sometimes and pull each other down
We get lost sometimes, can’t find our own way out
Dreaming in color, I’m under the covers, I can’t make a sound
Lost in the current, I’m living in torment, so please don’t let me drown
Please don’t let me drown
I’ve been staring at the sky
In a world on fire
We’ve got thunder in our hearts
We’re all afraid to die

I’ve got a troubled heart, it’s beating down like the sun
I’ve wasted most of my life, I’ve spent these years on the run
These gray skies turn to night and everything feels like winter
But sometimes I feel like nothing at all
Spray paint it black if it blocks out the sun
Burn it all down with the sparks from our love
When I look in your eyes I swear I just catch fire
Oh this damn troubled heart, it’s got me sinking so low
Spending 6 months apart, I know it’s never enough
Burn Burn Burn me down
To capsize or carry on or just slow it down
Burn Burn Burn me down
For all the days I’m gone, this is your song
I know you’d never tell me you want someone more ordinary
But that don’t mean you like being alone
And I know what it’s like to have it slip through your hands
So I shake shake shake like a spray paint can
And I’m trying to remember my way home

Dull Headlights
03:06

I’m sorry if we don’t connect
But I don’t drink and I don’t smoke
A basic kid, out of luck
And I’m afraid of hospitals
Call my friends tell them it’s the end
The sun went down and there’s nothing left
A lack of sleep and oxygen has got me feeling
Down Down Down
I’m tired of all these sleepless nights
Dancing in the dull headlights
I’m not sure I can carry this weight anymore
We are, we are who we’ve always been
We are, we are alone and innocent
Calling home when I’m falling off the deep end
Driving home and I’m never going out again
We are, we are who we’ve always been
I’m sorry if I don’t make a sound
If I let you down when I don’t come around
I don’t feel the same when I’m not at home
I spend the day staring at my phone
I woke up in a different time 10 years later down the line
So much has changed but through it all it’s still the same
I woke up in a different time I pull you in I hold you tight
I just can’t carry this weight anymore

Palm Canyon Drive
02:43

If I die too young or if I grow old
I wanna haunt your days and nights
Don’t want to be forgettable
Wrap me in gold and Del Ray blue, in room 13 I’ll come to you
I’ll be the dust if you’ll be the wind
On Palm Canyon Drive
Where our love will never end, you are the color in my life
I’ll be the ash if you’ll be the clouds
Carry this torch til it flickers out
In the desert wind, not the ocean blue
I’ll come to you on Palm Canyon Drive
If I sleep too long or if I don’t wake up
I want to haunt your memories ten years is not enough
Spare me 3 last words that ring so true, in room 13 I’ll come to you
I’ll be the ash if you’ll be the clouds
Carry this torch til it flickers out
In the desert wind not the ocean blue
In room 13 I’ll come to you
I’ll come to you

Let’s die in the golden sun, let the UV rays boil our bones
Drain the crimson from my veins
I wanna bleed seafoam green
Dear god where did you go
You left me all alone in Ohio
Paint my skin shoreline gold
It’s too cold, too cold for me
I’m so tired of wearing my heart on my sleeve
I’ve tried to be the best version of me
Sorry to say I’m wasting away
and I just want to stare at the sun
I remember everything, the way the sunlit sorrow used to sing
Ventura summers kissed my cheeks
You’ll shine like diamonds in my memories
I’m traveling distance and sleeping more sound
Up from this hollow I’ll dig myself out
I’m taking my first steps away from the past
And these imperfections are all that I have

Words Can't Hurt
03:25
|
|||
Day by day, we shine then we fade
Eyes open wide, I’m afraid to fall asleep
Out in the deep, by the moonlight we sway
By fires light I count the passing days
I used to think that things would change
But we all stay the same
I used to think that things would change
What if the words they say aren’t real
And the only thing that matters is how you feel
The words can’t hurt us now
The ocean between you and me
You act so sweet and you cut so deep
But the words can’t hurt us now
Night by night, we lay it on the line
No place to hide, drifting out to sea
Out in the blue, it’s only me and you
No end in sight, nothing left to say
These words you say don’t cut too deep
I tell you I don’t feel a thing
Into the night you set me free
We’re fading out I can’t escape
These words can’t hurt us now
I tell you I don’t feel a thing
Lost in your eyes this is a dream
Don’t fade away don’t fade
Follow the moonlight back to me

Bambarra Beach (The End)
03:42

This is the end and you are the sky
Set me on fire so my ashes rise
This is the end
In the moments before I go, I’ll focus on your eyes
They look like New York in the snow, paralyzed by the cold
Sinking to the bottom
Sink sink to the bottom
Let’s sink down to the bottom
Don’t let don’t let
Don’t let your current slip away
We’re sinking, we’re sinking down
Sink down to the bottom
Whenever I return, I’ll focus on your eyes
Like Bambarra in July, trying not to crystallize
And we’re sinking to the bottom
Let’s sink down to the bottom
Sink sink to the bottom
If this is the end you are the sky
Set me on fire so my ashes rise
This is the end
This is the end
Don’t let your current slip away
Let’s sink down to the bottom
