flood 01:47
Don't tilt your head back your nose is bleeding You just fell off the swing set, it's no worry Kids get cuts and scrapes and bruises It's part of growing up and learning A year later training wheels are off You've almost got it wobbling down the block 'Til a pothole sends you straight into a tree Dad runs over drops down to his knees Are you alright? It's just a little blood Yeah you're alright Tears begin to flood

leftovers 02:06
We eat alone Me and dad We microwave whatever’s in the fridge from yesterday We feel alone With mom upstairs The tension fills my stomach up and I'm stuck in my head I don’t care, I say In the basement I play Video games To clear my head It's not fair, I think But it's what I have To sing Today It's not ideal But it works I still wake up everyday Still wake up everyday I'm not sad but I'm not smiling As much as other kids to

sanctuary 02:19
At least I'm not the middle child The one who is easily forgotten Just the baby thrown into the world After Mark had graduated school An after thought to say the least They just got their lives back finally Why throw me into the mix Must have been an accident Why am I here? The question bothers me a bit They don't want me here Sleep it off, revisit it At least I have my bedroom My books, my games, my sanctuary A place with locks to escape to My soft beige carpet that I collapse on Laying here reading again Got my feet propped up on my bed I hear some yelling from the other room Day to day it's nothing new

subletting 01:57
A thick gray haze masks my expression My poker face is lame, I'm unenthused Looking for more ways to pass the time I'm coming up empty just falling short I guess Tyler's basement's not so bad I know a lot people that have it worse That fucking thing you said when I turned 13 Didn't think id remember that now did ya I'm better off now that I don't need you Didn't want to grow up this fast but it just happens I guess Tyler's basement's not so bad I know a lot people that have it worse I guess I'll just go buy some mousetraps and God it feels so good to be alone

in it 02:06
Large is riding his bike Down his hometowns street When the doorbell rings Remember when we Would watch this movie Every Sunday night She said I haven't seen your father in weeks And it think it makes me happy Can we try to go back I wanna go back Can we go back to then Can't we try to go back I'm dying to go back Can we go back to then

turn 02:18
How am I supposed to know, where I am supposed to go I don't feel a need to be, in one place in particularly Give me some space to breathe, turn around you'll hear from me How am I supposed to know, where I am supposed to go

thanks 02:31
I'll try this again For her own stability Since mine is already Too far from home Mark sets the table His wife carves the turkey I'm sitting with my nephews Hoping they would hurry Mom whispers in my ear I'm glad that you pulled through I was counting on you I pull away and run Grab her keys and go I'm out the drive way There I go I'm out the drive way There I go I'm out the driveway there I go
