can you feel the soul hear the father speak? what’s invisible how come your eyes can see? the brain calculates what the heart believes and produces sight without reasoning standing alone before a glassy sea how can one be judged beyond their deeds? and i don’t know the makers mind but i know i’m here to love i see it afterlife, unknown, and unclear we will die and rot beneath here but its alright we’ll find our own way

i know i never come around living in another state that isn’t here but i hope you do the same get up in your car and drive away from here all day darling go find out where your heart’s at i’m going to wait for you create your path i’m just scared to fail should i travel, work or just go back to school? 24 years i’ve been derailed i’m obsessed with what you think so i use auto-tune last night i had a meltdown (are these lyrics too cliche?) millennial the fuck out

exyst 04:06
out of time lifted above the street-lights see the clouds spread wide ascend into a paradise? it’s hard to feel the end around you it’s hard to let go death with still capture us all and life to those that choose so we’re going to get there soon i’m the measure of all my acts life is what you choose existence preceding essence out of time i miss the way you held tight don’t want to say goodbye don’t want to feel the void in life it’s hard belonging in the cosmos so much i don’t know convinced i’m here to exist time and choice was all that I had I see the end in view have I made a better world at last?

i can’t see space between like you do stretched beneath a concrete point of view you see the sky: see the spirit but i see you no need to fear discovery of the truth it is such a tragedy the truth lies undiscovered resulting from the ignorance of looking for the answers in the sky to see more of a god to be closer to god do you need a complete world to view? settling in belief that never moves you see the sky: see the ending but i see through open my eyes the transcending of the truth finding rest in my belief not found in faith but others facts beyond experience the freedom to possess an open mind to see more than a god

wayt 03:41
are we working this shit out? i want to feel your body learn about your soul i’ve been working my shit out i want to hear why you think we exist at all am i manic or depressed or just ambivalent? am i neurotic in my 20’s and just numb? come on baby i don’t want to wait for love are we working this shit out? i’ve been reading lots of Nietzsche missing calls thought about killing myself but i still think theres a purpose to it all i’m just statically obsessed to create meaning in this substance and if this is all in my head i should move along

think about the faith that you’re leaving just a minute more maybe you’re on the path from believing maybe you’re right maybe you’re wrong maybe it don’t matter what’s the point in waiting for something to believe in? ease your mind and what’s the point in saying you believe it is it for your soul or for your conscience? I feel like this is real I feel like nothings real
9.
analyze 03:57
i’ll never choose fall into my mind
fall into mind fall into my mind i overthink think it around you my feelings estranged or new? all I want: a piece of your heart fall into my mind fell into my i’m just outta time just analyze shit, I lose you? maybe I don’t feel its true all I want: a piece of a heart i’ll never choose i refuse to believe it don’t want to be fucking hooked on a feeling I’ll never choose I refuse to believe it its nothing but death to me i don’t want a piece of a heart
10.
i may never know maybe i’m just not that spiritual as to if there is a choice for who we are in this life because we are all the same confused about which way to go we were thrown up on a stage without a script to tell us what to do or say with our time or how to spend our lives your life’s a canvas: go paint something beautiful each day you’re dying: die for something meaningful so reflect on what you’ve done see the colors on your hands have you sketched to shape the world? have you sketched to please yourself? can’t get the brush out of your hands take it color the earth

breathe 03:37
will i be a waste or do anything that matters anyway? i want my soul to feel alive but i don’t really know where to go to do something with my time that betters the world and betters us all so get out of my head don’t think about it breathe out or breathe in the future is here it’s my choice or my fear breathe or our breathe in the future is here i’m scared that i’m not ready for it have i misspent all i have? don’t want to be a fucking waste i’m a better man my actions mean everything i fall and get up again and breathe out or breathe in i don’t know where i’m going but i’ll make it better there
13.
I found a way out through the window from the party in the backroom my fears weren’t calming down maybe I am stoned? but I still got shit to find out I keep asking: who am I? what defines my being here? more importantly why? where do I belong? Don’t want to be alone, but tired of being somewhere else with you I’ve been looking at my phone comparing everybody else I don’t know why Don’t want to be alone leaving everybody else and you I had to smoke out on the porch existential cry for help A gun and a cigarette I hold one kills fast and one slow see my life pass by check Instagram depend on likes watch my shows at night make ramen, try to get laid ,thats life? work that 9 to 5 trading my time away have I felt alive? because someday I’m going to die and on my gravestone it’ll say the words “the thing I cared most about in this life is what you thought of me” and all the things I didn’t do I was so scared of not being as put together as you but look at me now

hygh 05:24
i miss the sun i miss the days when i was young when i was loved i spoke with god i followed him with all my heart with no reply but i’m keeping my head up high have you wasted time? what will they say about your life? when you are old and can barely stand up on your own with hills to climb not knowing what is on the other side that it isn’t easy but its so worthwhile so i’m keeping my head up high
15.
let me give you that real life talking on your porch i could do this all night don’t need nothing more can you tell just by the look in my eye that i’m saved? cause baby you're my jesus everyday i don’t want to live forever i don’t need to babe i got nothing to prove i don’t want to live forever its true just give me this one life next to you i’ve been waiting all my life your’re heaven to my soul i feel it in the midnight and its hell when you’re not here close
16.
feel 03:23
i don’t know what i’m doing maybe it’s the long way down a kid that’s scared as shit to exyst fuck, my hand, its bleeding i punched the lamp in the front yard maybe i’ll never be somebody feel the moment feel your breathe i don’t want this to end i don’t want to be afraid i think about when i’m old still wondering beneath the weight “will my life matter if i’m not great?” i don’t want this to end feel the moment feel your breathe i don’t want to be afraid
