Colorless Boy

I've been a colorless boy
But you painted me pink and blue
I was never sure i loved you
But now I do
Yeah I do
I am a tap that pours feelings and you put your bucket under me
now you're gone but i'm still pouring, I’ll flood the whole city
And you won't be able to clean your room out of my breath, no you won't
Tonight and forever, I'm pouring love.

Perspectives:
I'm holding a knife between my teeth
And you stand still, you reached the mountain by your feet
Am I an only child?
Never doubted you'd be by my side
Our distance measured in dial tones, it's fucking wide
Never wanted, never wanted sympathy 'cuz i grew up and learned
that it's free, but comprehension needs to be fed
(I need you as you need me)
I just want my brother back, from the pain we both felt
I just want my brother back

Time Diver

I dive in the waters of time
My old man keeps his hand by my side
I start swimming in these deep old memories
To understand that feeling
we're always longing for
Too many stirrings to control
Too many faces I'd like to know
A steady hand once meant stability
Now it locks the door to the world
Is this moral inside me?
Is it carved in a block of granite?
Our feelings seem so doomed
Seeking strength, endurance and a positive mood
Cause everytime I fall I cant see reasons to feel new I can’t
Meanwhile I swim counter current
but looking at my back, will i move on?
At least I won’t stand searching for that feeling
Meet me in the shade between pink and blue.

Mom
02:58
|
|||
|
Filling caskets with wildflowers,
It's so damn hard.
Postponing breakdowns with a slow dance, I'm so numb, so gone.
Shut the pain in a cage, can't feel the rage, its tip's hidden.
Can't feel the rage no more.
Your words. They change the winds as a butterfly's wing beat.
This hurricane annihilates me everytime
I've been a part of you but you've never been a part of me.
I stole all the love i knew just to forget that you exist.
I’m building this love with my own bones.

Interlude (Love Vision)

|
You built something inside my chest
We may fall, but this will last
if there’s something over the edge,
we’ll meet there

Keepsake
04:02
|

|
Still awake and I'm thin like glass
Some old friends are falling apart
I can't help but feeling worthless
Daydreams were a lot more in the past
Is this life what we were supposed to live?
I find peace walking in a city that i let fit to me, but you’re not here
And I'm still struggling
Are relationships always meant to end?
Looking at clocks with my eyes shut
Just to mend my head
Just say it, I don't care
I’ll be here for you forever
Don't care if you won't do the same
just say it
And every conversation
A keepsake, a medication
From a time swallowed whole by a future I hope we'll deserve
