about

lp2 is coming. <3

lyrics

tell me that you love me
before i lose my fucking mind
i’ve been searching for forever
but it’s just so hard to find
drag your finger down my chest
like a scalpel through my breastbone to my core

meet me on a sunday
we can sit and watch the moon
i know spring is getting shorter, and we’ll both be leaving soon
but these glasses that we’re clinking
will they stop the ship from sinking
into the deep?


why don’t you answer my calls anymore?
i just wanna tell you ‘good morning’
you’ve never looked so apathetic

i’ve always thought you were worth fighting for
but you’ve waved a white flag
leaving me, out at sea, with my grief and nobody to connect with


ive been staring at the pictures people took of you and me
and i’m wondering what you’re thinking in the moments that i see
did you know that from the start
we were built to grow apart?
i guess you did

one day i’ll be an unknown number
call you on your broken phone
you won’t answer, but i hope it lets you know you’re not alone
and you’ll get that sinking feeling
but by now you’ve finished healing so why look back


caught in a tidal wave, you were the one
with a sideways smile and a life vest
liquor can make you say such charming things

i’ll live in darkness if you aren’t the sun,
don’t let me fall back
into me, my beliefs, and all my silly little worries

cause baby, when the sun sets i see

a film reel
every single detail
muscles in your face
that didnt used to move that way

i still feel
every single feeling
i cling to your embrace
you’re the first to break away


take me back to april, when the trees began to bloom
they said “love is in the air,” and i guess we felt its fumes
as we’re walking out your door
and you leave me wanting more than what i have

we could last forever in the blissful summer sun
but the nighttime’s when i sense that we will soon become undone
won’t you grab my waist and kiss me?
taste the double shot of whiskey on your tongue
