You Forget

You give your heart a little
and before you know it
your heart’s all gone
You give your heart a little
and before you know it
you’re all alone
You forget, you forget, you forget
you forget, you forget, you forget
how it always works
You forget, you forget, you forget
you forget, you forget, you forget
how it always hurts
Why logic is lost
every time
I cannot tell you
Why logic is lost
every damn time
I cannot tell you
You give your heart a little
and before you know it
you’re all alone
You give your heart a little
and before you know it
you can’t let go
You forget, you forget, you forget
you forget, you forget, you forget
how it always works
You forget, you forget, you forget
you forget, you forget, you forget
how it always hurts
Why logic is lost
every time
I cannot tell you
Why logic is lost
every damn time
I cannot tell you
You give your heart a little
and before you know it
your heart’s all gone

Dreamers

The dreamers are cursed,
yes this I know
We'll wander the Earth
'til the Earth lets us go
We may leave nothing
but that's not what we hope
Just want to leave something
from our time to show
We pretend we're rehearsed
as we live our lives
but the chaos is a blessing,
it's one in disguise
For what do you leave
if you don't make your way?
We must wander in darkness
to make it to the day
We're all a little lost
We're all a little lost
The dreamers are cursed
but there's more you must know
for even in darkness,
you have the stars' glow
and while you wander
you'll get to see
the light of dawn
and all that can be

Once You Go

I got a secret
nobody knows
I got a love and
that’s how it goes
Starts real simple
it starts real sweet
starts so nicely with
a “you and me”
But don’t you know
that’s when it goes
don’t you know
that’s when it goes wrong
I got a secret
you don’t have to know
I got a love that
I try not to show
Starts real simple
it starts real sweet
then comes the day when
two hearts meet
Cuz don’t you know
that’s when it goes
don’t you know
that’s when it goes wrong
Once you’ve loved,
you’ve loved
once you’ve lost,
you’ve lost
there’s no turning back,
no, no turning back,
once you go
once you go

Small Talk
03:24

I don’t care about the weather
no I don’t care about the rain
no I don’t care about the weather
so for your thoughts, I’ll wait
The fear of silence is strong
so we make pointless conversation
it’s just a desperate attempt
at a human connection
but the talk is empty words
The talk is empty words
the talk is empty words
I don’t care about the weather
no I don’t care about the rain
I want to hear about your passion
I want to hear about your pain
I understand
you don’t want to be alone
but you surround yourself
with pointless hellos
And I know
we all want the company
So tell me something real
I want to know how you really feel
No more empty words
No more empty words
No more empty words
I don’t care about the weather
no I don’t care about the rain
I want to hear about your passion
I want to hear about your pain

Manic Pixie Dream Girl

I walk with flowers in my hair
I walk with birds singing in my ear
I dance on rainy days
I laugh my pains away
I love with all my heart
but that don’t make me silly
I don’t want to be your
manic pixie dream girl
I ain’t just a little stop
on your adventure
I don’t want to be your
manic pixie dream girl
I’m a free spirit
that means free from you
You walk with such a serious air
Letting the world know that
you just don’t care
and maybe you’re sad
or maybe you’re lonely
or maybe you’re just a little mean
Either way it’s not up to me
to show you the light
either way it’s not up to me
to fix your broken soul
either way it’s not up to me
don’t you know I’m
broken too?
I don’t want to be your
manic pixie dream girl
I ain’t just a little stop
on your adventure
I don’t want to be your
manic pixie dream girl
I’m a free spirit
that means free from you
I don’t want to be your
manic pixie dream girl
I ain’t just a little stop
on your adventure
I don’t want to be your
manic pixie dream girl
I’m a free spirit
that means
I’m a free spirit
that means
this is my journey
you’re just one wrong step in it
and I’m only trying to free me

Surrounded

You walk alone
got no one as company
feeling the presence
only of gravity
it feels heavy
on your body
your breathing’s
heavy too
but believe in the air
you don’t see
but it’s always there
believe in the air
you don’t see
it surrounds you
you’re never alone
got the wind as company
never alone
for as long as you breath
I got my lungs
they thank me constantly
I got my blood,
my bones, my body
but believe in the air
you don’t see
but it’s always there
believe in the air
you don’t see
silent, it surrounds you
