Why Bother? 03:07
Revel in the ordinary, I wake up before dawn o put a load of laundry on I want to get the stains out of all my white clothes But I used all the bleach to refresh my reputation So I sprint around the block Cardio dissipates self-talk Coffee turns to nausea, but I quickly have another Anything to relinquish my composure Why bother? It's boring I don't wanna bother I didn't pay the heating bill Instead I wrap my self in tinfoil and stand beside the stove My cheeks are flushed with tepid guilt I seek out a hose, soak my head and eat the dirt from a rose garden Why make myself a meal? I'll just pour a bowl of cereal Watch female friendly porn Chewing on my cornflakes makes me feel alone Why bother? Why bother? I don't wanna bother Clean white linen // new beginning

Chlorine 03:41
I considered going under in the tub, a sinking slumber but melodrama freezes when the tap runs cold So I washed my face with my roommate's soap and I got into a clean bathrobe I put my head under a pillow for a while Swimming is the closest I can get to underground Heavy water buffer against anything too loud Swimming is the closest I can get Swimming, swimming, swimming I'm so glad the pool is free I love the smell of chlorine I have to carry hand cream in my bag Winter's wet but my skin is dry My lips crack as I say goodbye to the lifeguard I bet she's bored watching people survive Swimming is the closest I can get to underground Heavy eyelid buffer against anything too profound Swimming is the closest I can get Swimming, swimming, swimming I'm drowning in the mundane Just so I can float But when I reached the surface The fresh air burned my throat I'm floating in the mundane Just so I can drown

Creatures of comparison are crying, they're crying Identify a difference one more time If no self exists in isolation, Then who would I be if I am not around them? Creatures of comparison are ill-defined Shadow on a wall of high divide I don't say hello to anybody I know It renders all my empathy so superficial I regret speaking badly of anyone I dared to judge Oh, Creatures of comparison don't touch

Viewfinder 03:09
I get a kick out of checking the weather If it's going to rain, make sure to wear leather A coat made of pockets to hide all my pleasure Smoke one more Belmont just for good measure I read an article about how to be alone It said, "stare at the wall when you're sitting on your throne" An empty house always tends to creek and moan But I can't go on without picking up my phone I'm living like I'm in a viewfinder Make sure that backdrop looks good behind her How can these filters get any finer? Maybe we're standing in the wrong line-up Walk through the city with a rehearsed, soft pout Drowned in self pity, I just want to rock out Looking for ideas in a creative drought Swimming through the faces of a beautiful crowd I'm living like I'm in a viewfinder Make sure that backdrop looks good behind her How can these filters get any finer? Maybe we're standing in the wrong line-up

Lemonbalm 02:52
Enamoured of relief My fingers close around the missing key in my pocket oh, what a sweet release Left my wallet at the restaurant, I mourned the loss 'til my phone rang It's worth losing things just to find them again Like you lost me and I found you again Oh, date me, date me, validate me I've loved you for so long I'm wilting under my best behaviour Hot water over lemon balm Saw you learn a new language I stifled my denial It only turned to anguish "You can sleep on the couch tonight" Giving space is only a courteous invite to ache We create emptiness just to fill it again Oh, date me, date me, validate me I've loved you for so long I'm wilting under my best behaviour Hot water over lemon balm Every novel deserves a rough draft I wanna go where you're coming from
