17 freezeout 04:20
freeze out on the baseball field, your secret my lips are sealed let's hide right below to the bleachers, tell me how your favorite authors only make bad promises freakout at the arcade, last year was my favorite place. I traded my whole collection, as a sacrifice to adolescence, promise someday I can buy it back shakedown at the local punk show, I told me to just stay home. I just wanted to make some new friends, I didn't know it'd be a costume contest. rich kids in leather jackets and nail polish hang out at your house, I'm in if you're down. lets try our hardest to get through this lay down at the cathedral, I'm forgetting the hymnals. replaced with so pitted lyrics, my poor mom doesn't wanna hear it, I won't tell the pastor our secrets fist fight on the edmonds ferry, sought solace at the library, hide among my favorite poets, I wanted silence but I didn't know it. I go back on my word just like you. sneak out at sundown, ill be around. freak out at my house, please come calm me down. knock a tooth out ??? see how I got all turned around. see how I got freaked out freakout on the baseball field your secrets were just unreal

more prayers 04:42
our heads filled up with explosions + then grew too heavy to handle so we gave up + we caved in + bought ourselves a box of prayer candles I killed myself + then my friends + hung our heads proudly on the mantle watched from afar til the wax melted laughing til we were hysterical sitting cross legged + all cross eyed we crossed our hearts + hoped to die cheers to living here's to hoping that the best part has yet to start things get good then get great when you go from AWOL to postal life feels real the air tastes sweet im alert + awake at the funeral tint my glasses the color of roses + sew together my barely open eyelids watch closely as the grass grows back til all the details become bearable life itself will catch up to you even when you want it not to you will know the entire truth when it finally finds you if it all ends just like this, gorgeous + sick in a blink of effulgence if it all ends just like this stunned in amazement, waiting for oblivion if this is life if this is it... ill do what it takes, to take it. I will be... patient, laughing, choking, screaming
