mermaid 05:24
is there someone else you'd rather be? all my love is safe and warm at home. trying simple since I saw you last take the middle little mermaid, don't go too fast. town full of moisture, cry about it everyday, rain makes my rice grow love is the answer, the only thing i've ever asked for and your mother sings you told me time was like a river smoothing stones shes such a giver lately it feels a different way still water, waiting like a lake don't dream, erase. is everything just a reaction like mountain gods you're over active replace my days with memories, maybe i'll find a better me don't dream, erase. dream, erase it's raining harder than the old days. all my love is safe for you at home, trade your fins for legs or turn to sea foam the clouds will part and you'll know you've been known your ivy eyes were never dry i love your lips, even when they lie if you're never on your own could you ever be mine?

lean closer 03:35
i guess we're wired that way this one's for all the time wasted some people praying in the moonlight clear mind got me feeling nervous and i'm not packing for the wayback it hurts at first and it can pull you under i'm not saying you should stay back we'll hide together like we're scared of thunder i don't feel nothing and the only pill is waiting stalling are you saying you've been naughty call me night tipsy leaning closer to the water mixing up the self and wealth and now we take narcotics but you got me feeling life could be melodic blasphemy, but you got it like rihanna honest did you want this feeling to be formal like the monarchs you started something now so don't get modest show me where it hurts the most we'll pick up the pieces, grow into the next thing promise me we'll take it slow, call me when you want to we can make it happen, they said when it's right you'll know then it started raining, everyone was dancing maybe it's a waste of time but you know you're safe and nothing's really happening tell me where you want to go, we can stay at home and practice our romancing you don't have to feel alone focus on the now no we don't have to plan it i guess we're wired that way this one's for all the time wasted clear mind got me feeling nervous

saccharine 04:00
(Gibberish) (soon) (did you call?) just admit you're in love it's all on fire anyway you're feelings are god she took the shape of your heart and it's good to get lost there's nothing at the end of these roads i don't need to go far, just want to get to know you live long just to see my life pass away young and everytime i hold you i know that i'm wrecked, i know, i'm done.
