Prove

What have I got to prove to
Anyone but me
Because too soon
The only thing I'll be
Is bones and dirt
And fertilizer
Sleep forever when I lie
Where truth blooms
Deep beneath the weeds
I always feel like I'm dying
Sometimes I wish that I was
I catch a glimpse of my future
The sky and dirt above
Leave myself to the soil
Turn my body to stone
Decay into nothing
Starve the roots below
The ground starts to wither
And rot into loam
A new foundation
For a hole to grow
What have I got to prove to
Anyone but me
Because too soon
The only thing I'll be
Is bones and dirt
And fertilizer
Sleep forever when I lie
Where truth blooms
Deep beneath the weeds
Now the Earth's gone sour
There's nowhere left to grow
There's no one left to show
Wasting an empty hour
Another plot to til
Another hole to fill
With all the time to kill
What have I got to prove to
Anyone but me
Because too soon
The only thing I'll be
Is bones and dirt
And fertilizer
Sleep forever when I lie
Where truth blooms
Deep beneath the weeds
What have I got to prove
What have I got to prove
What have I got to prove
What have I got to prove
What have I got to prove
What have I got to prove to
Anyone but me
Because too soon
The only thing I'll be
Is bones and dirt
And fertilizer
Sleep forever when I lie
Where truth blooms
Deep beneath the weeds
What have I got to prove to
Anyone but me
Because too soon
The only thing I'll be
Is bones and dirt
And fertilizer
Sleep forever when I lie
Where truth blooms
Deep beneath the weeds
What have I got to prove
I always feel like I'm dying
What have I got to prove
Sometimes I wish that I was
What have I got to prove
It's sour, it won't grow
It's nothing you could know
I always feel like I'm dying
What have I got to prove
I'll wither and decay
For the rest of my days
Sometimes I wish that I was
I wish that I was
I wish that I

Better Hue
03:55

We washed out
Bled all the color from our mouths
It all faded
But it stained everything else
A blur is all that’s left
It’s been a while since I’ve seen you
It’s been a while since I’ve seen you
I haven’t seen these shades
In a long time
But I’m starting to think
That it’s been long enough
It’s been a while since I’ve seen you
But I’m thankful
That you’re looking a better hue
I’ve been alright
Thanks for asking
Was it taxing
When I drained the color out of you
Bleak and empty
We both said sorry
But I hope you know I meant it too
It’s been a while since I’ve seen you
It’s been a while since I’ve seen you
For the longest time I thought you left me
But I left you
With the scars I carved
Inked on your sides
They’ll never leave you
Nagging dragging
Unlike the blur I was
I haven’t seen these shades
In a long time
But I’m starting to think
That it’s been long enough
I’m at a loss
And I can feel my eyes
Searching for anything
I wash out everything
Show me something
Unlike the blur I was
I haven’t seen these shades
In a long time
But I’m starting to think
That it’s been long enough

Roam

I just can’t keep up
I’ll never get back up again
The ledge is too far gone
I’ve fallen off the edge
But what will I
Come to find
Is it something I need
Or something I can leave behind
Where can I go
Somewhere to roam
To parts unknown
They’re out there
But they’re not mine to find
No they’re not mine to find
I know they’re out there
But they’re not mine to find
So give it up
There’s no light to lead the way back home
Have I looked hard enough
I’ve wasted days overturning stones
So I’ll be made to crawl
And find nothing at all
There was nothing here yesterday
And tomorrow here nothing will remain
Where can I go
Somewhere to roam
To parts unknown
They’re out there
But they’re not mine to find
No they’re not mine to find
I know they’re out there
But they’re not mine to find
Where can I go
Somewhere to roam
To parts unknown
They’re out there
Where can I go
Somewhere to roam
To parts unknown
They’re out there
But they’re not mine to find
Where can I go
Somewhere to roam
To parts unknown
They’re out there
But they’re not mine to find

I wasn’t ready for this
But then again who is
I guess that no one is
Yeah no one is
I wasn’t looking for it
But I guess that’s it
I think this might be it
Yeah that might be it
Too scared to turn the key
Afraid of what might be
On the other side
What’s on the other side
Guess I’ll never know
Because I’ll never go
No I’ll never go
Is there a door
At the edge of the world
I’ll don’t think that I’ll find it
But I really don’t mind it
Is there a door
At the edge of the world
I’ve been crying poor mouth, poor me
I know, I’ve gotten so damn boring
So when the credits roll
I’ll just say I’m sorry
I’ll say I’m sorry
To everyone for everything
I let us down, yeah even me
I guess I still owe you all an ending
Is there a door
At the edge of the world
I’ll don’t think that I’ll find it
But I really don’t mind it
Am I stuck in a dream
Am I making a scene
I’m so sick of confusion
Lost in frantic delusion
Is there a door
At the edge of the world
I should know if it’s out there
But I’m not sure if I care
Is this real at all
Is this real at all
Is this real at all
Is there a door
At the edge of the world
I’ll don’t think that I’ll find it
But I really don’t mind it
Am I stuck in a dream
Am I making a scene
I’m so sick of confusion
Lost in frantic delusion
Is there a door
Is it unlocked for me
At the edge of the world
Maybe I’m finally free
I should know if it’s out there
But I’m not sure if I care
Is this real at all
Is this real at all
Is this real at all
