uproot 03:01
seen the tree chopped down in shame from the storm that carried it to flame take your hands and heal from this maiming and see the sprout from within your stump's stay "you were this simple token of what this childhood was of climbing atop of mountains and giving calming pause and i know that you're waiting for the time to come along to be another token of love and hoping that you don't sign out see, this tree tried to walk away oh it didn't know what to say so i grabbed it pulled it back in ran my fingers deep within your skin saying "your eyes they seem so broken and your wings they falter now the night seems so hopeless when you're not right in town but you are here so knowing that we can work it out we can work it out so please don't let the light die out\

downpour 02:08
dangle your keys and wait a piece cause you don't know how to fall asleep and your ears they are calloused with pain from the edge of the sea call out to me hold your breath cause you don't want to go far east in your peace it's crunch time taking your bedsheets from the edge of the sea tangle your teeth and stain your cheek this smoke is coating your afternoon tea but your feet they are calloused with pain from the edge of the sea cinnamon sugar monstro's creep you have been living more than you should seem in your peace it's crunch time taking your mementos from the edge of the sea

caretaker 02:25
wake from subtle sleep there's a weight behind your eyes and you feel it crumbling it down but you try not to drown we leave and go you stay put and try to keep the hope in check cleanse the marks upon your neck take your life for granted feed those needy and what is your reward turmoil runs in this family you say so i'm happy that you're still here today and you open up you can't help but cry because the life you lived is gone

limbo 03:05

take what you will you subtle soul of detrimental youth swim like the fish they say, you don't have a clue in doing so your calloused hands are rubbed against the truth tempo is unnerving you run so fast yet you don't know the feel keep your legs from bruising as you breach the sky's bright teal that's covered in this smog, i can't help to breathe it in and you say "i'll see you soon" hope you won't leave forever, this time these chatty decanters strong as they are, they're filled with whine know that bittersweet feeling will leave with time so be filled with summer greens and watch the world speak kindly hope you'll speak back , this time
