SlashedSucubus Always able to catch pure emotions in every single one your songs, always making us beg for more, well at least for me, just keep it that way, the sounds are beautiful and always find myself lost in every words. Favorite track: Currents.

Porch Light 04:12
Am I going to be okay? Haven't felt alive in days Passing cars on the interstate Wish I knew which exit to take Reaching for the wheel again From the passenger side of the van Watching me as I age to death Close my eyes, they're my only canvas Driving through the pines Ocean on our side When will it be time Head-lights passing through the night Staying up for state lines Packed everything, left you behind Avoiding days that you stayed the same Either way, I know I’ll be okay Sitting outside We’re still in drive They leave me a guide A porch light left on in the night Is it hard to feel content With no one in your bed Would you take everything back For a change Does it leave you out of breath When days are better spent Would you really sell your soul For a change Is this it I said I would, but I never did At the end I'll find the calm, I know where it is And when we rest our heads Will you be there? And when we rest our heads I know you'll be there

This year hasn't humbled you And nothing will I'm trying to remember all the reasons I should care A year spent cutting ties and losing friends The rain flushed out pieces of old muses Gray clouds haven't moved in a few days You've been stuck in your old ways Why don't you laugh like the old days Hoping that the weather can still change Feeling like a ghost a lot lately A few months spent in hiding and waiting Up late thinking bout the days you never had I don't think you'll ever understand the fractures in my head It's a cloudy day again in my head Finding out you're not who you said
3.
Blemishes 04:31
I'm still half expecting to get a call from you Instead we lost connection A simple sorry would do Low hum from the wires Buzzing through your room I've been holding together Time to let go I heard your name the other day It left me cold in a good way It's no coincidence You didn't take that picture What's your new excuse Tell me that I deserve it I'll stay the same for you It's no coincidence The chapter is half penned Your shots have blemishes Fading in and out of frame I woke to you leaving You didn't say a thing If I wasn't so restless I would have never seen Used to faking it Prop your book up, hide your face Fearing everything I heard your name the other day It left me cold in the best way
4.
Stay Home 03:49
I know I'll find the reason Don't want you to feel defeated Lost the keys up on the ceiling Have you waiting on the come down I want to drive you home Maybe we have one of our own Watching old movies in the fall Enjoy the coast I want to stay inside tonight Swimming in your eyes, I feel alright Let's move to the city Get a dog like we've been saying Maybe then I'll stop complaining I'll keep quiet on the drive Do you miss when we were dating Sorry I've been distant lately Some days are hard to get through Trying to cut loose I want to stay inside tonight Swimming in your eyes, I feel alright I want to feel your frame and mine You're spinning and I want to take your time Always leave the window open Felt the waves while we're in motion Tried to find the time to tell you Found the words that I held onto I don't know why I held so tight I want to live inside my head You make the outside not so bad
5.
Anywhere 02:46
It never takes that long to forget We give in a different way We've come far enough to know we won't get what we want It's never enough We dream of everything Locked away in a hidden space We can be anywhere Wake up early to lose our minds Close our eyes, get lost in it all We can't live like this anymore We've come far enough to know we won't get what we want We've come far enough to know we might end up a thought Sometimes we get lost
6.
Quitter 04:00
Passed out on the road again The pros of phoning in regrets Threw my back out while we loaded in Heavy breaths and splintered shins Planting seeds I’ve been growing some dead leaves I don’t need what you think I need To keep me breathing Would you think that I’m dreamy If I had a voice like Stevie I’ll keep faking a way If that’s okay Pissing in the wind again Pulled over at 3AM Waiting for the spark to hit You don’t know the half of it Would you think that I’m pretty If I wrote you songs like Phoebe I’ll keep faking a way If that’s okay Nathan told me that there’s no plan What if quitting isn’t half bad I’ll keep faking a way Maybe I’ll stay
7.
Felt incomplete Wasting your twenties The days start to bleed So sick of you leaving Felt hope in the breeze But why would the wind care The cold lost its sting It’s lost in the back of your head It’s a quarter to three That’s when you reach the doorstep Hold onto me Bury me, keep us grounded I can only feel your heat when it’s leaving Chasing years that are long spent Warm summer pavement Wish I could shake this Driving miles past the exit I left you back there You left me back there We left it back there Float my way Passing right through me I couldn’t keep you Close enough to me “Feel what you can while you can. You may never get to” That's what you said Do you see what could be In the blur of the traffic Of some passing street I think that you haven’t yet Used to think I’d be fine As long as I tried All your days waiting
8.
Currents 04:00
Moon Turning tides, setting me loose Waves don’t ask what I want Catching feelings, I’m stuck in a loop Blue Painting me out of your view Still like your surface here I’m tired of the silence you choose Do you feel that? Always calling me back When the waves crash Won't you put me to rest Move Try to push the current towards you Fighting sleep to hear you speak Standing on the shoreline waiting Calm Waiting for the storm to pass on I can see the shore again I don’t mind gasping for breath Floating Going through the motions Find a way to slow it I don’t mind the wake Do you feel that Always calling me back When the waves crash Won't you put me to rest I can't keep on wading back to your bed I can feel it Never taking it back Sometimes I wish you would I wish you could Do we float home or should we stay
9.
Way Out 03:56
How long til you're checked out? Six or so deep in an hour fifteen It's getting late, can we go now? Brown papers bags and a night that I know you'll forget Watch it all fade Wait till’ the morning Fractured bones Set fire to the throne The life that I want I had it last night It’s over now I’m sober now You don’t speak like you used to 12:51 and you’re already gone I reflect you Calling in sick from the demons inherited, again Comfort in retreat It’s over, feels cheap A season of hiding Lost the footing, fell beneath Take your lies About how you’re fine And I’ll compare them to mine Got to find a way out
10.
Thief 05:30
I heard you talking about Dying from the couch He’s trying to fix it Find a way to fix this “Nearing the end isn’t fun Don’t want to burden you my son” He doesn’t want to hear it Find a way to fix it Would you call me to your bed If you knew you were leaving Or handle it instead Take all the time Stay for awhile Lost in the clouds Miss having you around How's the view now? I'll keep you around Lost in the clouds I'll miss having you around If there's something after If I make the cut Will I see my dog there? Will she remember me at all Their twin size mattresses Won't be left vacant You can see them growing Just how you were suppose to Maybe we're the ones asleep Left the phone off the hook In case you're wondering Maybe I'm the one asleep Left your phone off the hook I know you’ve been calling You don't pay mind to the sky Or look for any light Unless it's dark outside
