Glass Sky 01:10
lyrics
buy track
The only picture I can paint is of a glass sky The only question I can ask is how to ask why I been tryna save the world with my back turned The only fuck I ever gave was to my girl The only sorry that I meant was to myself The only feelings you ain’t seen were on the shelf The only designated driver had a DUI The only lie I ever told is in this bar The only bitch I ever loved had that purple skin Cuz I’m forever on the hunt for the eternal sin I held heaven in my hands, yet I ain’t made it in All my excuses, playing stupid just to play the friend Kinda funny how the money made em paper thin I was looking at your titties through a glass eye I keep my eyes shut and let the world pass by The only picture I can paint is of a glass sky

Frozen Pipes 00:58
lyrics

I feel like I’m strapped in the back Of a drowning limousine With my hands wrapped around you And my palms on your cheeks You seen me crumble Like the ash of my teeth Grind on me, make me feel Water racing through the steel The pipe’s frozen But the pressure’s gonna burst I could make depression out of hurt When I forget the lessons that I’ve learned Weighing heavy like a curse When you held me like you nursed me Back to life Until your arms melt Oozing through the kennel As your fingers slide down to my waist I seen the pinnacle And seen it fall Gliding with grace, the finer the plates The silent escape that I gotta make All lies are the root of hate For that coincidence, I hate faith Catching fades just to feel Water racing through the steel The pipe’s frozen So I claim to miss you Faking to reciprocate the love Cuz if I don’t give it I don’t get it back And there’s karma in that Pray to heaven up above For the target on my ass Believe me May this victim soul redeem me A prisoner of coincidence Written in the mystery The only way to solve it Opioids and antihistamines I’m sick of the nicotine All salt on the injury Like a flaccid dick Scribbled on the window of a limousine

Maple Friends 01:59
lyrics

If only I could find a place to be alone Fuck a couple hoes, lose em to the gold Smoke a couple cigs And lay my body in the road Find a grove Is it that I need a blunt or a hug? Or do I lose it? Cuz I can’t get enough Or is it stupid tryna stay off the drugs? Cuz I am either on the verge of death Or verge of tears But if I last another year god help me I’m slowly losing breath And treading water till I’m set free Fuck these motherfuckers tryna test me Tell me that if I lose my mind I’m gonna find it where you left me Cuz I forget my safety plan And all my cliffs are crumbling I was tryna jump it But the water’s made of stones Some ten toes Hoes on my phone I’ll never be alone, look Is it that I need a blunt or a hug? I spent a decade on the hunt for a plug We on the old shit, no-fuck giver My feet ain’t strong enough To tread the water all down the river I let it guide me to the bank in a shiver I told it cry and pour one out for my liver But all the liquor’s made of stones Some ten toes Friends on my phone I’ll never be alone, look And I don't give a fuck about the happiness Cuz all my maple friends Had to grow to make the sappy shit But I’m actually lit, I never shed shit Fucking with em, fucking with me Is it that I need a blunt or a hug? It doesn’t matter, I’ll be done Within a rope and a tug Put on my secular shoes I keep my head in the sky I keep my neck in a noose They say the hips don’t lie I fuck my bitch in her truth If only I could find a place to be alone Fuck a couple hoes, lose em to the gold Smoke a couple cigs And lay my body in the road Find a grove

Pink & Purple 01:02

There’s a Starcaster in his room He barely knows how to use But I could teach him Pluck your fingers on the steel wire I want to learn what it feels like Beneath the pink and purple strip lights in his room

Heartache 04:46
lyrics

Lost in the lie The butt of the truth, the ash in the sky For something to live For something to lose, for something to die The tables turn, let the record burn Let the darkness fade in a sigh Suffer the lows, fuck more hoes And pray for the highs Finding asylum with nothing to hide I’m losing my mind staying inside Cut my hands, the blood runs redder Than nothing but a man Who knows nobody’s better than him Defeated by inebriation Taking hold, nothing left to lose Lying in the cold, nothing left to this Know I fucked it up I ended it quicker than it began Pray for the hoes, pray for myself That god’s in our souls Praying please God say the dream got me Overheating in my body Pray for the strength I never believed in Never blamed you for leaving Pray the bank lift me up Hippity-hoppity Celibacy growing fickle in sodomy Ice cold sun, put the heat on myself Until there’s no self to speak of When’s the lease due? Lost in the lie Making up truth, the god in the sky For something to live For something to lose, for something to die
