Let Me Know

why is the pile of clothes
on my floor so big today
I should start to leave my house
even though I’m already late
I like the rain when I’m inside
sip on coffee mixed with powdered cream
I think I probably killed my fish
due to negligence and apathy
I’m trying my best
just give me a break
I’m not trying my best
don’t you dare give me a break
what if I didn’t go I shouldn’t go
what if I didn’t go I shouldn’t go
I'll walk away, I'll walk away, I'll walk away, I'll walk away
what if I did go and I’m still alone
what if I did go and then I explode
I'll walk away, I'll walk away, I'll walk away, I'll walk away
ok, ok, ok
just let me know
hey hello hi how are you
don’t lie to me I know the truth
just remember that I’m here
so if you’re sad there’s no excuse
walking faster than I should
what’s an average speed for walking
running from the police
from my friends from the talking
I should respond to you
it’s not very nice
to leave you in the dark
no it’s not very nice
what if I didn’t go I shouldn’t go
what if I didn’t go I shouldn’t go
I'll walk away, I'll walk away, I'll walk away, I'll walk away
what if I did go and I’m still alone
what if I did go and then I explode
I'll walk away, I'll walk away, I'll walk away, I'll walk away
ok, ok, ok
just let me know
what do you want from me
why do you care
what could I offer you
that you don’t already have
why are you asking me
to introspect
is this a game to you
why won’t you go away
are you going to that thing
it would mean a lot if you were there
just to see someone I know
you don’t even have to care
I’m empty inside
but what’s one more night
will you fill me up
will this be enough
what if I didn’t go I shouldn’t go
what if I didn’t go I shouldn’t go
I’ll walk away, I’ll walk away, I’ll walk away, I’ll walk away
what if I did go and I’m still alone
what if I did go and then I explode
I’ll walk away, I’ll walk away, I’ll walk away, I’ll walk away
ok, ok, ok
okay
okaaaaay
oooooooh
kaaaaaay

Prove It

your honor he’s obviously lying
he’s just middle class and bored
and has yet to meet the Lord
I mean he isn’t even trying
I don’t know how you fall asleep
just pick a side you fucking creep
look yourself in the eyes
for a really long time
and make up your mind
prove it
prove it
make me believe it’s not a phase
or launch me into outer space
prove it
prove it
confine my paradox of self
or turn me into someone else
your honor the defence has started sweating
please do not take him at his word
you can’t be both cuz that’s absurd
just think of the precedent you’re setting
I heard he was a fraud
he’ll have to take that up with God
you know this isn’t the way
normal people behave
this isn’t okay, right?
so prove it
prove it
make me believe it’s not a phase
or launch me into outer space
prove it
prove it
confine my paradox of self
or turn me into someone else
it’s just justice
you must understand
this snowflake nonsense
must come to an end
I may never leave you
I hope that you don’t mind
just cuz the court’s in your head
doesn’t mean that it’s kind
prove it
prove it
I do not ever wanna change
except sometimes I wanna change
prove it
prove it
make me believe it’s not a phase
or launch me into outer space
prove it
prove it
confine my paradox of self
or turn me into someone else
there’s an obvious flaw in the defence’s argument
doesn’t make any sense
learn to live with it
members of the jury
now that I’ve pled my case
what did I do to deserve this?
you were asking for a trial when you spoke up in the first place

Apparition

if I seem misleading
you’re not crazy, baby
I kinda disappeared
if I seem inconsistent
you’re not crazy, baby
I have been acting weird
my words just tend to hurt
when I give them honestly
it’s such a stupid phrase
but it’s not you, it’s me
I’m a ghost for you
a lovely apparition here
it’s kinda funny how this time
it’s me who’s filled with fear
I’m a poltergeist
who just stopped knocking at your door
I wish that I were more
I wish I had a form
please excuse me as I disappear
at last you found me
hiding in the corner
rigor mortis begun
it’s too bad that I’m dead
hiding in the corner
but being dead’s kinda fun
I’ve walked this road before
sorry you had to come along
you thought this would be fun
I’m sorry that you’re wrong
I’m a ghost for you
a lovely apparition here
it’s kinda funny how this time
it’s me who’s filled with fear
I’m a poltergeist
who just stopped knocking at your door
I wish that I were more
I wish I had a form
please excuse me as I disappear
aaaaahhhhhhh
aaaaahhhhhhh
aaaaahhhhhhh
please just leave this haunted house
or hire an exorcist
no you don’t deserve this
no you don’t deserve this
don’t try to understand
cuz it’ll haunt you ’til you die
you better run and hide
you better run and hide
or maybe I’ll just grow the balls
to tell you I don’t know
then maybe you can hate me but at least then
you’re free to go
I’m a ghost for you
a lovely apparition here
it’s kinda funny how this time
it’s me who’s filled with fear
I’m a poltergeist
who just stopped knocking at your door
I wish that I were more
I wish I had a form
please excuse me as I disappear

Unsure

maybe we should talk about it
but it might be hard to talk about it
so far so good we’re moving forward
sideways, backwards, who knows the right words
I don’t. Do you?
but if we just ignore the signs
we could be happy, free, awoken,
or sad, confused, and broken
oh, we could not find
a more unexpected haven
are you a swallow or a raven
I’m still unsure
don’t get me wrong, I find you pretty
dangerously so
but I lay here noncommittal
while your head rests on my shoulder
while my hand inches to your hand
and your hand inches to mine
and then we never look each other in the eye
but if we just ignore the signs
we could be happy, free, awoken,
or sad, confused, and broken
oh, we could not find
a more unexpected haven
are you a swallow or a raven
I’m still unsure
remember when you touched me
and then I touched you back
we were so close but now we’re far apart
wish I could say I had your best intentions in my mind
but I did not
you’re right I just ignored the signs
now we’re not happy, we are broken
due to things that went unspoken
oh we did not find
you feel so distant lately
I understand it if you hate me
I’m still unsure
