So why did you leave?
You left sheets stained like the windows of empty churches
I’m filled with vulnerability
And desperation, desperation is me
Now I lay here every night haunted by
A feeling that had no chance of becoming stable
I am not stable
Well yeah you’re right
I did say that I would never leave
And you said you were sane
Both are lies mine just caused a little more pain
How do you feel?
Inside your skin?
How do you feel?
I lost my faith in you
I think you lost a little bit of it too
(I'm reaching out)

Can I Go Home?

Didn't move, didn't speak
Sat in the kitchen right next to the sink
You dealt away the feeling of pain
You dealt away oh everything
I don't know how I can
Don't know how to help you
But I will do anything
Anything I have to
Come back to me
I don't know home
Sorry friends oh I am sickening
Sorry lovers oh I am heartbreaking
Sorry family I am not everything
Tried to be everything I can
I wish I was more than what I am
You're disappointing
You're disappointing
You're disappointing
God, you disappoint me
Come back to me
I don't know home

They tell me you don’t eat
That your ribs they’re showing teeth
Through your skin
I can tell you don’t sleep
That you are
Having the same dream
You say you want to leave
And go somewhere
Where its not so bad
And you’re not so sad
I don’t think its safe
For you to be starving yourself away
But I know why
I know what you hide
Hide the pain that’s inside of growing up
Cope with life and the fact that you're alone
You told me that you don’t want to grow old
Well no one does that's just how it goes
(I don’t know you like I used too)
Growing up is not all I thought it was
You said that you’re gonna leave Michigan
And go where you think life is
Life never found you
Life never found
You said that you’re gonna leave Michigan
And go where you think that home is
Home never found you
Home never found you
I know now what you meant when
You said you’re gonna go
Tied that rope around your throat
Now I’ll die alone waiting for
Your soul to come back home

Hey Suckers (Halloween)

How’ve you been since Halloween?
Haven’t spoke since Thanksgiving
I had friends over at 210
Where they drank and smoked cigarettes
It wasn’t the same
I am the painting in your head
The colors fade as you lay in bed
You are the tattoo on my arm
Pains hard to forget when you look at the scar
If you do not love me
Tell me to get up, tell me to leave
If you don't love me
Well I would sift through your mind
Find nothing inside but lies and
I know you never really cared about him
I’ll find sick harmony
In ghosts that only haunt me
They keep me company
When everyone else is asleep
How’ve you been since Halloween?

I woke up laid in my bed
Wish I could’ve slept in instead
Another day awake
Is another day closer to death
But if you just stuck around
Made me feel I was worth the sound
Of your voice
Maybe I would have a different choice
Instead I’ll go and dissolve just in time
For your favorite month of fall
Quite beautiful after all
I’ll bury myself underneath
That old bridge where we used to meet
Will you wait for me there?
Cause I’m getting older
I used to be in your head but I think
I was forgotten when you fell asleep
Dear friend how’ve you been do you remember me?
So I’ll go and dissolve just in time
For your favorite month of fall
Quite beautiful after all
I’ll bury myself underneath
That old bridge where we used to meet
Will you wait for me there?
I’m getting older
Dear friend why do you run away
From almost everything you love?
Oh god, you have changed
