A Garden 03:00
lyrics
buy track
a garden grew on your first name i made it look so pretty ‘til you walked away there i stood on the river bank i ripped apart your violets spread them across the waves i did i almost drowned dancing in your petals but i found i can breathe better without you there weighing me down wide awake i’m convinced your voice was a siren song ‘til it hit me like an ambulance my dreams aren’t up to speed i’m learning it takes time subconsciously to let you rest in peace rest in peace to the garden i only miss in my sleep rest in peace rest in peace God I wish I only missed you in my sleep God I wish I only missed you in my sleep God I wish I only missed you in my sleep God I wish I only missed you in my sleep our memories are kinder in my dreams

Elongated 04:06
lyrics

all i ask is don’t wring my heart elongated promise me you won’t ever turn graceless my astronaut hope soars in a spaceship that’s where we disagree, i’m afraid of heights bruising your grace an oasis, i don’t want to taste a drought i’m all in, all in without what happens if i open up my mouth to spell “I love you” and you’ve forgotten how? i’d save my breath to rescue my hope from saturn’s innocence try not to choke on the absence of oxygen but your blood keeps mine rushing, i don’t need to hear your vow i’m all in, all in without i’m all in, all in without i’m all in, all in without i’m all in, but I don’t wanna be without all i ask is don’t wring my heart elongated

you are the back of my eyelids i kissed the back of your hand i’m so happy that you are my man i’ve seen your baby pictures i’ve felt your scruff with my palms i wanna be around your whole life span you are my greatest hit if you were gone i’d throw a fit at midnight in the streetlights on west 4th you are my greatest hit if you were gone i’d throw a fit oh i don’t know what i’d do not being yours i don’t know what i’d do if i wasn’t yours

The Ghost 03:36
lyrics

i was supposed to be the ghost married to the afterlife set the bomb went up in smoke closed both of my eyes there’s no diamond on my hand the wedding bells don’t call for me I’m right here in plain sight and you’re nowhere to be seen i was raised from the dead when I missed you in october come back to bed will you please i was sick in my head when i left you in september i thought you wouldn’t love me i thought no one would love me sooner or later you would call or at least that’s what i told myself without a straight face as you went walking through the walls i wouldn’t hear from you at least for many moons if i can’t see stars in the city i’ll always be the one to lose i was raised from the dead when I missed you in october come back to bed will you please i was sick in my head when i left you in september i thought you wouldn’t love me i thought you wouldn’t love me i was raised from the dead when I missed you in october come back to bed will you please i was sick in my head when i left you in september i thought you wouldn’t love me i thought you wouldn’t love me i thought you wouldn’t love me i thought no one would love me

you left me for dead half-naked in my apartment see you soon you said would it have been better if you had said what you meant i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” you took me by storm month after month i was yours too good to be true didn’t expect it not from you i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood” i was nothing more than “i was in the neighborhood”

the couple on this elevator better not live in the penthouse rubbing their love in my face up 30 floors while i’m on my way to hand back your things my heart’s wrinkled in the corner of your room their pda is magnifying us losing touch love, you’re over it love, i’m still in it over & over & the music on this elevator never made me wanna make out run my hands through your hair up 30 floors I can’t take anymore of the way they adore as if they’ve got something to be seen yellow number light distract my eyes from her lipstick on his teeth love, you’re over it love, i’m still in it over & over & I wish I had your sense of balance my head’s over my heels I got too used to falling teach me to sit still my head’s over my heels I wish I had your sense of balance my head’s over my heels I got too used to falling teach me to sit still my head’s over my heels love, you’re over it love, i’m still in it over & over & love, you’re over it love, i’m still in it over & over &
