It Has to Get Better Because It's Going to Get Worse

I'll Be Fine 01:28
2.
I feel scared of myself When the drugs don't help I'm a knot loose and undone When the drugs wear off Maybe when I get home I'll feel better Maybe when I get home I'll feel better than I was I hate myself for leaving I'm alive for the first time I'm alive You'll be fine It's all in the smooth skin and the soft lips calling you back and letting you in It's the binary the dichotomy The rushing of blood to the brain If I can't help myself What's the point of living In a fragile state
3.
Three Years 03:06
What if we never met A Second hand for a second bet Leaving the house to ash With my fourth hand lash to lash We're coming up on three whole years When I'm alone I sink into another one When I'm alone When I'm alone I'm sick of all this shit Dumping my ambitions into it Living for my recklessness Digressing into hollow sin And I'm a selfish man Calling you just to hear. you speak again I'm a desperate man For everything that I can't see
4.
Pull 03:22
Did you get high just to feel something Push and pull Push and pull back I laid back on your sofa barking at the moon innocence and depression push and pull push and pull back It's all I can say It's all I can do The ground is sinking beneath you All I can say Don't be afraid Worst part is I'll be okay
5.
I don't need another step to keep me clean and fed So take it back all the wicked things Did you choose them just to say you did I feel scared Breath paint on the window Sleeping in the car Did you take the gifts they held for you Another lifeless stare Another reason to be bare Calling you out just so you can say you don't care I don't wanna hurt you I don't wanna fight But I can't be the scapegoat Every fucking time

Haunted 03:50
It's another accident It's a hard time to be alive It's another suicide on the front lawn My friends all think I'm Hopeless My friends all think I'm numb I just wanna feel alright And I can't be you Even if I want to It's like depression but not abandoned Talk to me like you did before It's another mortgage spent Haunted while you're parked outside It's another household fight With the lights off My friends all think I'm nothing My ghost he counts as one He told me I'll be alright It's loving a new person With the heart that's breaking mine Talk to me like you did before
