Yellow 05:47
Oh, Yellow am I Oh, Yellow am I Oh, Yellow am I Cause I’ve been denied… 2, 3, 4, You’re a man who's learned to crawl And although you like your ceilings tall You’re content boxed in or buried And I don't need my burdens carried You just smile and keep on tunneling And you ask me pretty songbird sing Kit kit canary is it troubling That my last breath holds your harmonies Oh, Yellow am I Oh, Yellow am I Oh, Yellow am I Cause I’ve been denied My life I’ve been living in your boots And although escaping leaves me bruised I know the schedule of the train And I know your minds not bound to change Oh commodore I'm not so eloquent But I know if my medulla quits And if this comes as a surprise I wouldn't have it any otherwise Oh, Yellow am I Oh, Yellow am I Oh, Yellow am I Cause I’ve been denied My life Oh, Yellow am I Oh, Yellow am I Oh, Yellow am I Yellow am I Yellow am I I’ve been denied

Risks 02:35
We met like a field amputation With stitches on after the fact We spoke like a child and a mentor With both of us believing that We only serve to teach We connect to disconnect We just wanted to explore Don’t want power don’t want sex We just want to speak And ignore Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh You see what I can’t see DMT and divinations Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh I see what you can’t see Adolescent thought abrasions There’s no truth without a cost There’s no truth without a cost There’s no truth without a cost Oh There’s no truth without a cost There’s no truth without a cost There’s no truth without a cost So are you willing to pay? And in the end We only get to live once We should only get to die once And in the end We only get to live once We should only get to die once

Hello Im awake today but I Don't know If there is room to stay In your mind Im pressing buttons but you won't Rewind Hello I kept you sane I kept you On track You lost your logic and its all You lack The race has started and you turned Your back Oh You’re in trouble now Cause Oh You’ve forgotten how to learn from other people’s mistakes You’re gonna break You stupid girl Hello You were meant to be alone You know You’ve gotten good at letting go Can't panic When his tongue is down your throat You addict You’ve turned A primal autopilot on You’re gone It’s sweat and blood to write a song What's wrong You had the world in your palm Oh You’re in trouble now Cause Oh You’ve forgotten how to learn from other people’s mistakes You’re gonna break You stupid girl Hello He’s not the only one you love You’re so Caught up in learning how to trust Someone And now you’re living on the run From what? And soon You won't be able to stop by you’ll try You won't have money for The miles And time Is slipping silent from your skin A sin.

Simple were her thoughts And me, well i forgot How to let go I’d like to know Spitfire, she was alive And how did she decide To be so I’d like to know Isn't it Ugly Isn't it Ugly Isn't it Ugly Isn't it Ugly Never had my fill To find love Was to be killed Welcome blindfold and cigarette Isn't it Ugly Isn't it Ugly Isn't it Ugly Isn't it Ugly It’s ugly to give up
