Downtrodden misplacing my mind I'll be evicted in time, never known a life this way I avoid placate, I avoid delay freeing myself from the grime Rust forms over my eyes Expelling you from my mind Beggin myself to be kind All I wanna know Is the reason why this case 'gone cold All I wanna know is why the reason why I wanna know what you hide If I could run you know I'd run away If I could go you know I would not stay I guess now it's been two years It's a fact now the dude abides I still suffer from creature fear and Trepidation inside Sit still feel it engulf me I'm being eaten alive I've conquered habitual sadness Sue me! I just want to live my life

Worry Warts 04:33
Doesn’t anyone get lonely anymore? Oh my god I can see faces in the walls They are coming for me Can’t you see? All I see are reasons to be scared Though it doesn’t feel so good to hide Sometimes it just what you do to survive And oh I know, it can be scary seeing spots I know there are homies on my side They’ll hold me down till the sunrise Oh I think the shadows are playing with my mind I can’t tell what I’m looking at What do you see? All I see are things that haunt your mind I just hate feeling like that Like I’m constantly under attack How can I even ever hope to get to sleep tonight? Sleep with a pill beneath the tongue Morning arrives surely as the sun Oh my dear, I think I’m getting sad again I cant believe this happening Do you see this man? All I see are curses cast on you And all those whom damn thyself Surly would gladly forfeit health Sometimes it’s hard to admit you need help Hostage to the “dosie-dose” brigade When I try to move I’m too afraid

Mouth watering unsung potential Allurement that’s not prudential Enticement that not that exciting The result is often hang nail biting Like a bad man, or some crazy hoarder How could I spend my day’s life without borders? How observant of you to pick up on that When the thing you want causes a collapse Welcome to waterloo Surely it will ruin you Just don’t ask me what to do Whaddadoo

Don’t charge me with their crimes I want to love you Let me in your gates So I can show you Why drive away ambition When it’s headed in the right direction Just follow the compass It’s all you need Take a turn down the path Where I can meet you Mumble underneath your breath While I berate you Why insinuate divergence When you can’t control your urges Just follow the footsteps They’re all you need My mind makes you think you have to live in the now But faith helps me believe it’ll happen in good timing Someday soon, though I don’t know how I hope my soul will find peace Cover my footsteps and leave me be

Man on Wire 03:51
Holy hollow Swam through the mire Poised now retro I’m a man on wire Left over land-ho Bring all your dreams here I’m less than shallow Leave all your friends here If seasons paint a picture They make it so much bigger If Seasons paint a picture The dreams get so much bigger The seasons paint the picture Holy headboard Ran crossed the delta My soul finally deepened At the western’s end Riverheads met in the middle In the heart of the mire Watch for where you scribble I’m a man on wire

Witsend 07:04
How couldn’t you notice I wasn’t really there My mind was on a sailboat On the high seas somewhere How could I even think that By singing songs Actions could be revoked by words And right my wrongs I wanna know how you breathe Oh, it seems so difficult to me You make it look so easy All I want Is to be a real boy Chemically, what does it really mean There are talks of balances, and inequity there was no way you could’ve known that I was on my own It looks like I’ve got a crew But I know I’m alone
