Whistle Song

I used to do it for the thrill of it
Lone wolf, full moon, howlin out for the kill of it
I never thought about the consequence
I had nothing to lose
Next morning comes wish I could
Capture the letters on the tip of my tongue
I try to, recite the lyrics but the words never come
I lost my life inside a moment I was forever young
Now I’ve lost it to the brevity
Sometimes I recall the melody
and it goes like
(CHORUS)
I used to hear it each and every day
Door slams, phone rings, hot sex in the key of A
I listen to the listen to the soundtrack
Not everyone could hear that
So I put it in a mixtape
I had nothing to prove
Now, sometimes when everything’s quiet
I try to crawl deep inside it
Close my eyes, look at, pitch black
Project the picture back
When we used to smile just because we were kids
Can’t let it slip
(CHORUS)
Can't let it slip away, slip away
like dust in my hands
let it liquidate like oceans flowing over the sands
the distant memories that I keep
from lighter days when I could smile in a picture
just because I felt that way
Just because I felt that way
Just because I felt that way
Just because I felt that way

Friendly Fire

Gun smoke in a literary phrase
head shot let me hit you with my best aim
eye for an eye everybody goes blind
keep your hands up and nobody needs to die
Gun smoke in your compliments
2 face so I pay you with my 2 cents
how sad you spend it on a clip
hand for a hand everybody losing grip
This new talk is growing fatal
when the shots ring out across our tables
voices broken, can't be unspoken
the trigger hand turning
the bridges come burning down, down
Every day a bullet to the brain
is the price I'm paying for this new talk
The words you say they weaponize sashay
but I won't surrender this love I got
Every day I struggle to explain
why you want my ego drawn up in chalk
Words you say I wear them like chains
always drowning deeper in this new talk
In this new talk
In this new talk
Gun smoke in the letters on the page
so thick I can't even see the white space
watch your back friendly fire on the 9
love heals all from the venom of your rhymes
Gun smoke in the ventilation
been trapped in my lungs since it was handed down by generation Y
have we been products of the time
dark forces seem to influence your mind
moving both your lips by the pulling of a line
never become a real boy til you stop telling those lies
Whenever we disagree
You're ready to commit murder
whenever we disagree
it's killing me you're ready to commit murder
This new talk is growing fatal
when the shots ring out across our tables
voices broken, can't be unspoken
the trigger hand turning
the bridges come burning down, down
Every day a bullet to the brain
is the price I'm paying for this new talk
The words you say they weaponize sashay
but I won't surrender this love I got
Every day I struggle to explain
why you want my ego drawn up in chalk
Words you say I wear them like chains
always drowning deeper in this new talk

The Yearning
03:44

Pretending we don't have to say it
We have this afternoon
let's share a taste of something new
sweet thoughts and melodies
trip into our own reality
as 15 minutes falls to 1
We come for the feeling
seeking pleasure in the light sublime
we give into the yearning
pretending we don't have to say goodbye
we had this afternoon
We had this afternoon
and now it's over
she says I'm leaving soon
as she pulls me closer
so naive, no
to call this love
for now it's good enough to hold the look in eachother's eyes
We come for the feeling
seeking pleasure in the light sublime
we give into the yearning
pretending we don't have to say it
pretending we don't have to say goodbye
Before our time runs out
and the palace that we built crashes down
I'll let you know
Before the sky light dies
always remember how I held you inside my eyes
to let you know it was worth it
We come for the feeling
seeking pleasure in the light sublime
we give into the yearning
pretending we don't have to say it
pretending we don't have to say it
pretending we don't have to say goodbye
Until the sun goes down
I'll feel it when the sun goes down
I'll feel it when the sun goes down
I'll feel it when the sun goes down
I'll let you know you were worth it

Fortunate Man

If I arrive tomorrow
trapped in yesterday
will you give me time to borrow
24 hours
it's just the way that I'm made
it's just the way that I'm made
If I arrive tomorrow
carrying my head
will you bury it in the sand
6 feet underground
I'd die a fortunate man, I'd die a fortunate man
Hold my head above the water
my arms are getting tighter
Hold my head above the water
I can't keep above much longer
If I arrive tomorrow
holding out my hand
would you give me something to get by
something to get by
I'd die a fortunate man, I'd die a fortunate man
Hold my head above the water
my arms are getting tighter
Hold my head above the water
I can't keep above much longer
Lead shoes, concrete
broke dance, cold feet
headphones, no beat
hot tub, with no heat
my focus telescoping til I can't see anything but you
when I'm sinking in unending self-perpetual abuse
with your arms, holding me up
I'd die a fortunate man
Hold my head above the water
my arms are getting tighter
Hold my head above the water
I can't keep above much longer
I'd die a fortunate man
I'd die a fortunate man
I'd die a fortunate man

I can be a safe place
When you need to hide away
I can be the music
Play you through the darkest days
You should be fortunate
One day to grow old
So never stay silent
Raise your voice and let them know
1, you can be loud
Piercing like a feedback into the crowd
2, you can be night
When it gets too dark fill it with the light
3, you can be life
Raising up the dead just to walk on your side
You, you can be, you can be, you can be anything
If anything you can be you
I can be a sculptor
Chip away the jagged edge
I can be the music
Spinnin round and round and round your head
I can be no one
Je suis deja vu
Illusions that your heart makes
I’ll be there to tell the truth
Stop, why’s it feel like I’m the only one who can’t lie
Look at my clothes look at my phone
Too many years old to get the downloads cause I can’t buy
Time, sometimes it feels like I’m the only one who can’t die
But everyone goes, everyone knows
And the record plays on, and on, and on, and on
1, you can be loud
Piercing like a feedback into the crowd
2, you can be night
When it gets too dark fill it with the light
3, you can be life
Raising up the dead just to walk on your side
You, you can be, you can be, you can be anything
You can be anything
Long before the whole world passes you by
They were only passengers in your rear view
Long before the whole world passes you by
They were only passengers, passengers
you can be loud
you can be night
you can be life
if anything you can be you
1, you can be loud
Piercing like a feedback into the crowd
2, you can be night
When it gets too dark fill it with the light
3, you can be life
Raising up the dead just to walk on your side
You, you can be, you can be, you can be anything
If anything you can be you
