Strange 03:33
I'm just a little bit tired of living inside my mind when will it all be clear? I count the d-days down since I last relapsed I can't relax I fear the big sad is here. Ba da da da da da dum I'm ready please sedate me Ba da da da da da dum I'm trying please just help me. It's a strange little world, I try to exist in I'm a strange little girl, but maybe I can save me maybe I can save me maybe I can save me maybe I can save me mmmm we're all strange universe, why can't you hear me? I'm just a little bit mad with myself, I could've had some better teenage years. I mumble through c-conversations I try to open-up but the wolves are growing near. Ba da da da da da dum I'm ready please sedate me Ba da da da da da dum I'm trying please just help me. It's a strange little world, I try to exist in I'm a strange little girl, but maybe I can save me maybe I can save me maybe I can save me maybe I can save me mmmm we're all strange universe, why can't you hear me? 'Cause I'm tongue-tied, stuck inside, but I'm ready for another way, to face this. 'Cause my head's high I'll oblige, work until my hands are dry, I can do this.

Snowstorm 06:32
Little blue house, I don't move from these walls little girl sobs, It's getting so cold inside my head, a snowstorm awaits but I, won't let it in. Little bit tired from the thoughts I don't say little bit numb from the days I wasted inside my head a snowstorm awaits but I, can't be afraid. But I, will survive can't rewind. 'Cause I was so lost yet so strong. I can't relapse I wish it were easy, standing on both feet leaving this house alone (this house alone) I can't forget what I put my friends through stuck in a rut asking myself, what can I do? (what can I do?) Beating myself up, hiding in corners, fighting the urge to leave this house alone (this house alone) and I can't forget what I put myself through stuck in a rut asking my Dad, what can I do? (what can I do?) Falling so fast, can I mend from this fall? falling for her, but I'm not really sure inside my bed a snowstorm awaits do I let her in? Falling too hard so it hurts even more falling for her warmth - is that the allure? inside my bed a snowstorm awaits but I can't be afraid. But I, will survive can't rewind. 'Cause I was so lost yet so strong. I can't relapse I wish it were easy, standing on both feet leaving this house alone (this house alone) I can't forget what I put my friends through stuck in a rut asking myself, what can I do? (what can I do?) Beating myself up, hiding in corners, fighting the urge to leave this house alone (this house alone) and I can't forget what I put myself through stuck in a rut asking my Dad, what can I do? (what can I do?) Tired of taking two steps back, when I think I've freed my demons can I find a way to beat them, beat them, beat them? Tired of taking two blue pills, when I'm frozen on the inside can I find a way to feel it, feel it, feel it? I can't relapse I wish it were easy, standing on both feet leaving this house alone (this house alone) I can't forget what I put my friends through stuck in a rut asking myself, what can I do? (what can I do?) Beating myself up, hiding in corners, fighting the urge to leave this house alone (this house alone) and I can't forget what I put myself through stuck in a rut asking my Dad, what can I do? (what can I do?)

Trouble 05:09
Falling down, down, out of the ship waiting for the tide, to pick me up again I listened once, I listened twice, but still I keep on drowning just waiting on some good advice. Want to believe, I have a future but I'm lying to myself, I will be fine. Is this it? or am I in trouble? lost my mind, once again can I break through bad habits? lost my mind, twice again. Crawling out, out, of this mess waiting for someone to help me up again I relapsed once, I relapsed twice, but still I keep on trying just waiting on some good advice. Want to believe, I have a future but still I'm lying to myself, I will be fine. Is this it? or am I in trouble? lost my mind, once again can I break, through bad habits? lost my mind, twice again. (and again, and again, and again, mmmmm) Holding promises is hard, need to do this for myself I can't see a clear path need to make my way through this storm. Holding promises is hard, need to do this for myself I can't see a clear path need to make my way through this storm.

Swim 04:00
Fall once, fall twice you can't see an escape, you'll wait 'til the breaking point but i know life hasn't been so easy. (so easy) Reach out, be brave I can see you, need a good friend, who will nurture you dear 'cause I know life hasn't been so easy. (so easy) I can't free you from your mind, but I'll be there if you decide To swim though I know you feel like drowning, feel everything to keep from breaking, move to the music of the past that you ran from. Breathe evenly to keep from panicking, talk to your friends to keep on laughing, move to the music of the past that you ran from. Repress, digress, I can see you, obsess the rest, of your empty plate 'cause I know life tells you you're not worthy (not worthy) Skip meals, bump heels with your family, I'm scared aware, of the price that you'll pay 'cause I know life tells you you're not worthy (not worthy) I can't free you from your mind, but I'll be there if you decide To swim though I know you feel like drowning, feel everything to keep from breaking, move to the music of the past that you ran from. Breathe evenly to keep from panicking, talk to your friends to keep on laughing, move to the music of the past that you ran from. I'm so proud, that you're my friend, you showed me love, and no quick judgement I wanna return, what you did for me want you to know, you can always lean on me So swim though I know you feel like drowning, feel everything to keep from breaking, move to the music of the past that you ran from. Breathe evenly to keep from panicking, talk to your friends to keep on laughing, move to the music of the past that you ran from.

Goodbye 03:05
Running out of fuel to get what I want, the future is so unclear time to pack my books and say goodbye to the friends I'm leaving behind Gotta be real, gotta be calm gotta be fine, with what I choose gotta make peace, peace with myself 'cause time, ain't going back. It's time to clear out the memories, from my old closet now that I'm free, from the lessons, I took for granted I go home and dry my eyes, it's time to say goodbye friends so close to my heart, it's time to say goodbye Not so good at living in the now the present is so unclear pandemics, pain and grief form a cloud trapped in our homes, trapped in our skins Gotta be real, gotta be calm gotta be fine, with what happens next gotta make peace, peace with myself 'cause time, ain't going back. It's time to clear out the memories, from my old closet now that I'm free, from the lessons, I took for granted I go home and dry my eyes, it's time to say goodbye friends so close to my heart, it's time to say goodbye Not so good with uncertainty I relinquish all control I'm not alone in this universe I'm so lucky to have a home It's time to clear out the memories, from my old closet now that I'm free, from the lessons, I took for granted I go home and dry my eyes, it's time to say goodbye friends so close to my heart, it's time to say goodbye bye ahhh to say goodbye bye ahhh to say goodbye.
