Child Grows 02:58
Don’t grow older Slow burn To smolder, you’ll turn Colder Don’t grow old Don’t grow older, you’ll You’ll turn colder You'll turn colder Don’t grow older Slow burn To smolder, you’ll turn Colder Don’t grow old Don’t grow older, you’ll You’ll turn colder You'll turn colder Frost on clover Frost on clover

Asleep 03:23
I know you see just fine The glasses don’t mean anything I know that you see just fine Because the glasses they don’t mean anything It’s all just a matter of us It’s all just a matter of talking And wondering if this thing is done being a mess Yeah, it ain’t a mess, if it is I’m leaving I’m asleep in sandy Sheets Join me Above me all the time I never reach ‘cause it’s useless Always above me all the time I never ever reach ‘cause it’s never worth it Magnets are happening now Ladders are happening now and I wonder if you even need to give it a step Don’t need a step, if you do I’m climbing

Lethargy 03:43
When’d you turn away from me? This ain’t anxiety Get back to that space You know, the one where you’re alive You know what you’ve gotta be Don’t make it up for me You don’t need my voice You can feel it well inside So sick of waiting for a time of day I am done with holding out for changes When they’re ones I can make Idle lethargy This is bliss Idle lethargy Don’t give in I don’t wanna take the fall Don’t wanna talk at all Just tryin’a get away Before the fear, it sneaks inside Don’t want to reiterate Makes no sense either way I fear I will grow still I fear I’ll be a stone Every second that you’re laying you’re making a mess It’s existential but potential is something to dread When I falter it’s a nod to the tune of something like I am done with holding out for changes and particularly when they’re ones I can make

Ironface 05:10
I’ll be louder Sunnied-up flowers You’ve gone over Iron is colder I am a stone statue in thin grey paint The closest thing to iron on my face I know that you are angelic and good And maybe I was extremely lucky But it feels like your safe place is behind Ray Bans and delirious highs in the sun Like you’d rather be seen open-mouthed in a photo than to ever actually be known You love and take care of your shaky brother and Feed the old and helpless And our only point of connection Was our deteriorated ancestors You shake off your effortless creativity and compassion for the weak By staying underslept and being choosy in your speech Monger of all things deft and sincere I don’t regret bringing my business here, baby My iron guise was a reaction to your name And there was nothing to fear

Defer the referendum Consensus ain’t on the agenda It’s ‘cause I’m overtaken by the aesthetic of The Ana Let’s get a different referendum Prefer to defer to piano When does it become alright? I wanna be crazy I wanna be crazy about someone How do you count the last one, and will I ever feel the same hun? Did it really take 6 years to realize I had the last one? Said how do you count the last one, and was I really on my last run? When can you just realign calm it down and quit all the overthinking I have seen you 16 times when will you get the hint that I’m not done with you I understand that you feel kinda jaded and want someone real but I know that you could feel so crazy if you’d just let me in (clap clap) I promise It’s not over and I’m not done
