Enter anxiety
Untouched photographs of who we used to be)lj
A few years younger a little less harder
A bit more optimistic Atleast less of a cynic
crumbling expectations
building a case we dont wanna talk about
talk about
ignoring reservations only serves to prolong the bout
prolong the bout
Dont you think that we could get better
trying and trying to shelter this weather
things get a little bit harder
when conversations get a little bit wider
the only common ground seems to be
that everything ends eventually
crumbling expectations of feelings unwilling to talk about
sweet worded explanations serve only to bandaid the doubt
bandaid the doubt

Reason designs solutions
But reason deflects the shame
Of profits built on foundations
of others unintended pain
So close your eyes
And spin you're tale seen by blind eyes
You cannot lie
About a truth your heart denies
We have no future
On this path we've set
consume the myth
That everything
We Have no Future
is planned and permanent
No need to fret
The planet will be fine, when we’re all dead
Reason hopes for salvation
But Reason it can't escape
We've made miscalculations
What monoliths we can sustain
So close your eyes
And spin you're tale seen by blind eyes
You cannot lie
About a truth your heart denies
We have no future
On this path we've set
consume the myth
That everything
We Have no Future
is planned and permanent
No need to fret
The planet will be fine when we’re all dead

Dear Sender
we havent spoken in weeks
the days pile up now
months into years of masterly
planning to avoid a confrontation
theres nothing unique
Do I owe you an explanation?
And I can't help but think I fucked this up
by being all I ever was
amounting to a disappointed sigh
lost two parents in the blink of an eye
Most nights I don't sleep;
thinking of all of my shortcomings
replaying the good times on blurred tv screens
longing for a life when you didnt resent me
its like you haunt me
every message seals the tomb
the things you taught me I wouldnt qualify as good
They always show when Im feeling vulnerable
its like you haunt me
bury my relationship with you

Shadows

Seems to be warmer now
But your ghost still lingers around
Dull greys have faded away
Bringing shade of somber ache
Still trying to figure out
How to cope with the sound
Of emptiness drenched silence
Behind closed doors from your absence
I am getting lost in the contours of your face
As I slowly realize you will not leave this place
It's getting hard to remember
All of those days
When this shadow wasn't creeping
Into this space
I am getting lost in the contours of your face
As I slowly realize you will not leave this place
Why's it so fucking hard to remember the days
When this god damn shadow hadn't consumed your face
Seems to be warmer now
I am getting lost
Seems to be warmer now
In the Shadows

As I stared at the embers
of a past I wont remember
the consequences keep
but we're not getting any younger
We travel on
Though the path seems bleak
looking for something to live for
We're not getting any younger
Last out
turn the lights down low
you'll all abandon me
On my journey home
back to the dust
our ancestors know
on this cosmic stage
our mortality's a joke
But there were times where we flew so high
we thought we'd touch the sky
before tumbling down
into reality of fading dreams
never realized never realized
We're not getting any younger
Though we stumble on this path we seek
We remain hopeful to find the joy in everything
