Leaves With The Rope

Right now you've got a lot of time to lose
Somehow you always hit the ground confused
And your skin leaves with the rope
And you laugh so hard
But its not a funny joke
I'm gonna find a way to let you go
Haven't told you yet but I think you know
Gonna find a way to use my feet
Find a different house on a different street
I'm gonna find a way to smell less bad
Get some of the things I wish I had
I'm gonna find a way to let you go
I hope I've got a nerve that I don't show
It's nice that we can be lonely without ever being alone

Long ago, before the sun could melt the snow
We had time, we could be resigned
All the days - a look, a kiss, a gaze
In a blaze now you're so alone
I know that you don't remember
Anything but char and ember
I wish I could see you better
Pay and pay but still a debtor
I don't mean to be so obtuse and mean
It's just hard to read warnings I should heed
I don't mean to be selfish and petty
Lenses built opaque, tremors turn to quakes
Long ago, before I dared to let you know
There was wine - gave the nights a shine
A bitter breeze could bring me to my knees
Lost my keys now its cold
All the good they tried to render
My life is a blistered bender
Crashed and now I'm down a fender
Crashed twice more I won't surrender

Listen To My Problems

We met in a taproom in 2015
You taught me to tango, I'm not light on my feet
You're getting your PHD, you like to play DND
My favorite thing about you is you don't have time for me
I break up with you twice and I am drunk each time
The reasons you stick around I'm sure I'll never know why
Cause this is not a one off, I do this time after time
When it comes to love, there's a problem with my mind
I like to cry in front of girls
They need to know that I am sad
I don't know what I get out of this
The way I live is pretty bad
I'm like a vampire with no fangs
You can listen to my problems
Loving has its ups and downs
Welcome to the very bottom
Its the anime convention in 2016
I'm on a bit of adderall, I'm on a whole lot of weed
Kissed you with cigarette teeth in a filthy street
Texted you at dawn saying I'd like to meet you said
"Hey man you seem nice but you're so full of shit
You're just another basic dude trying to get his kicks"
You are right about me, thank you I need to admit
Codependency is a bad habit that I've gotta quit
I like to cry in front of girls
They need to know that I am sad
I don't know what I get out of this
The way I live is pretty bad
You've been patient, you've been kind
I hope you find what you are needing
Guys like me are better off
Enrolling into therapy

You've got all the nerve
You got what you thought you deserve
I try to draw along the curve
Unsteady grip, I never learn
It's time to leave behind
Mish-mash, occupy your mind
Clenched tight you are on the grind
A jaw for rest is disinclined
The temperature is freezing
The breath a weary fog
A life spent in appeasing
The hawk that eats the frog
Hide your expectations
It's all that they can take
A soft kind of gradation
A gentle way to break
Don't you give a single thing
I like to be myself but it helps if no one is around
I try to live my life on the shelf where no one's ever found
Sometimes I feel alright but at night I listen for the sound
I like to be myself but it would help if you were not around
