High Waters 03:30
he calls me from on the road no one’s waiting when i get home he tells me he loves me but only when i’m giving it up lay me out here with the fauna strangled and useless like my mama break me up and take me down there throw me in hope i’m not found here he calls me from on the road no one’s waiting when i get home he tells me he loves me but only when i’m giving it up he always knows just what to say when i'm alone and so unsafe i can't cry with no air and i can't breath when you take me there i'm alone i need your touch nobody knows quite how much what it takes to get me here and what it takes to keep you near

it’s such a pretty house a shame you haunt it now and i know nothing but fear is this the way you planned it out i see the dust throughout it seems so empty now my body shaken now at the thought that someday you’ll find out when i’m all alone i talk to the windows and walls I’m starved for touch you know and this’ll never feel like home can you really love something that you’ll never hold tell me when you know cause i’m struggling to hold onto what you know you know it’s such a pretty house a shame you haunt it now and i know nothing but fear 4x

Bloodletting 04:21
my money is all in that well i wished and wish that it would just sell and my baby fed on sour milk no one is here no one is here to hear it crying now im lucky i got it all out before before you came raining down you poisoned it the water in the ground and no one drinks no one drinks since the day we found out that’s when the sickness came and it took me down now, every breath I take feels like pounds and pounds and pounds and pounds of weight on my chest every breath that escapes im lucky i got it all out before before you came raining down you poisoned it the water in the ground and no one drinks no one drinks since the day we found out my money is all in that well i wished and wish that it would just sell and my baby fed on sour milk no one is here no one is here to hear it crying now im lucky i got it all out before before you came raining down you poisoned it the water in the ground and no one drinks no one drinks since the day we found out

I really wish you would know how much it takes to hold it all up I’m a monolithic girl show my face unto the world no one sees me anyway what they’re begging for is pain and my body takes the toll for the sins that they all sow when my image cracks and folds will be the time you need me most I really wish you would know how much it takes to hold it all up I really wish you would know how much it takes to hold it all up

i’m a pretty boy something you can stare at when he’s gone i hate playing coy it makes me throw things at the wall when i make a noise wonder if you can hear me now through the ground if this makes it all the way to you i just hope that you know i’ll always be here only for you ( i don't wanna be your cure anymore ) ( to take advantage when i'm so cold ) i’m a pretty boy something you can stare at when he’s gone i hate playing coy it makes me throw things at the wall when i make a noise wonder if you can hear me now through the ground if this makes it all the way to you i just hope that you know that i'm always here just for you when she's gone when he's gone
