Feral 03:13
lyrics

I can’t remember when I saw you last heard you dyed your hair Wanted to find a new adventure Took the dive on a dare Young feral and free Young feral and free Young feral and free Faded mountains in a frame Conjuring old gods again Words pushed through stained glass teeth Tounges splitting at the seems Young feral and free Young feral and free Young feral and free Took a trip out to the woods Burned them just to see if you could Coughed up ash all day long Prayed for a Suceus song Young feral and free Young feral and free Young feral and free Try to wash off all your fear Watch the water run clear Wildflowers from the ground Fastened into a crown Young feral and free Young feral and free Young feral and free

You feel like a rainy day in July Where the pavement keeps you warm through the night the asphalt will stain your feet and you can wake up in the street The Sun will hit your eyes But you won’t ever see the light Smoke and mirror memories Nicotine stained sheets Bleed me dry Vampires in the light Tie up your loose ends And then we can pretend Stumble out the door Fall down to the floor Make the light dance Run all through the grass Feel the dew After it’s scorched we can bloom We can bloom

Take your Weapon Shift the blame Kill who you must Til only you remain Hide the blood scent Cover up your tracks Disappear Into a vanishing act I’ve gotta walk away I’ve gotta walk away I’ve gotta walk away But I can’t No I can’t walk away I can’t walk away I can’t walk away and I don’t want to Feel the trap Spring around my leg You’ve been caught Prepare to be maimed Watch the curtain Fall like a bomb Count your secrets You won’t keep them for long I’ve gotta walk away I’ve gotta walk away gotta walk away But I can’t No I can’t walk away I can’t walk away I can’t walk away and I don’t want to There will be no encores There will be no bows It’s your final act So make it count Keep your wits Give them one last show Look around and think How hard it is to go I’ve gotta walk away I’ve gotta walk away I’ve gotta walk away But I can’t I can’t walk away I can’t walk away I can’t walk away and I don’t want to

Monument 03:37
lyrics

I called up on your phone just to try and hear your voice I’m not sure if your listening but I’m still making noise Cicadas sound like a neon sign keeping me up all night I just sit there and hope they take flight I’ve been having trouble sleeping ain’t that cliche Even worse I’ve started to lose track of the days I could tell you that I miss you optimistic that’ll help We just sit there two memories on a shelf I am a monument to every mistake that you’ve made Whatever demon that you want me to portray I feel the heat wrap it’s fingers around my throat It doesn’t seem like it has plans of letting go Breath in and it hurts Breath in and it makes it worse The technicolor whirl of being alive It’s nice to look back and think I survived Go outside and sit in the yard Rest under the sun and dream about the stars I had a dream cement was on my feet It felt like I was under two feet deep I woke up not scared at all I wanted to see how far I could fall
