i could get lost in my thoughts i could think of the future far off but what good would it do for me? what good would it do for me? stressed out i can see it in your face black eyes given to you by the race that you’re running by yourself everyday, slow down, oh cant you stay
2.
on the rainiest days what are you up to? are you feeling alright? is your life working for you? i thought i would send you a letter that maybe you could hold on to do you want to talk soon?
3.
fall tho. // 02:00
this season brings me more than the falling leaves quietly keep your voice down as you're talking to me its safe to say that I'm giving my best try its safe to say that i wont give up until i die is it safe to say that you feel alright, alright? is it safe to say that every season, I'm looking for something.

die 4 it. // 02:15
you say you love it so much but would you die for it?
5.
EZ NOW. // 01:40
hey there do you want to go outside with me theres no need to worry, to feel bad to feel
6.
whats a bad day to call a bad day whats a rough night to call a rough night isn’t it all just how you see it just how you see it half empty or half full all the glasses, all the rules i could care less could you care less?
7.
sense. // 02:46
confused senses yet you’re always walking around tapping on walls looking for a hollow spot to knock down spoken softly yet you’re never talking a lot staring at skies looking for some kind of hole to fly though I’ve got nothing to give you except my hands, and i need them too but i would, i would lend them to you if you would feel alright
8.
got you. // 02:40
tuck yourself under the covers close your eyes wish for the lightning to stop its ok to be scared we’ve all been there hide yourself under the blankets block your ears wish for the thunder to stop its ok to be scared we’ve all been there I’ve got you I’ve got you, I I won’t let the bad get to you
9.
any1. // 01:31
have you found something to talk about in relative silence have you found something to believe in its getting kind of late if you don’t even believe in yourself than why would anyone else? have you found somewhere to drag your feet in relative peace have you found someone to tell you what you’ve been telling me
10.
I’ve noticed you sitting at your table a lot doing puzzles that you pulled out a cardboard box do you ever wanna go take a walk? do you ever wanna take a walk life’s a puzzle that you’ll never figure out do the pieces fit together? do you have any doubt? life’s a puzzle that you’ll only figure out if you throw away the pieces and forget all the doubt i’ve noticed you talking on the phone a lot doing jumps through hoops trying to land a job do you ever wanna go take a walk? do you ever wanna take a walk i know you’re still trying to figure it out just like me and all your friends no doubt but we got no reason to shout no reason, no doubt

theres a place somewhere out there surrounded by thick streets and the air feels alright, just like my soul when I’m here, i don’t mind the cold with the change in the seasons comes the change in the way you think cold weather will kill you id you don’t got the warmth underneath theres a place somewhere out there surrounded by good souls and the air feels alright as it goes down my lungs i could ask for more but I’ve got some
12.
i appreciate everything you’ve said to me i appreciate even if you can’t read me but its ok now its alright are we ok now are we alright i swear I’m happy for everything that I’ve never done i swear I’m happy for every battle i’ve never won reasons to live // // // can i ask you something is it weird to be alone? can i ask you something is it cool to be unknown? can i ask you something did you ever have a home? can i ask you something are we that different? we’re not so different you and me we’re not so different can’t you see can i tell you something it wasn’t weird to be alone can i tell you something I’m still really unknown can i tell you something i never had a home can i tell you something are we that different?
13.
dog days. // 01:50
sometimes it feels like i only stay still drifting around like or losing the wheel i can not tell you what you gotta do you can not tell me advice or nothing sometimes it feels like fixated on futures drifting around like what you can’t see i can not tell you where you gotta move to you can not tell me advice or nothing sometimes it sounds like we’re not going anywhere thats just the vibrations of our voices in the air
14.
what are you running from? is it something i can’t see? where are you going to? is there any room for me? yeah if we walked these streets till the sun came up would our eyes close would we have to wait till dusk? just try to sleep it off. when life’s getting tough you can’t just sleep it off when life’s getting rough you can’t just brush it off just keep on keeping on
