Blue in my blood and cheap as I want it
I won't take my chance on you
It hurts to be honest but I'm on it
Aint gonna take my place for you
In crowded places with no lights on
Ain't no recognizing shame
And we don't change the shit we live for
There's never one to blame (don't blame me now)
Go a price on everything and you ain't gonna pay that
Every day the same and you ain't gonna change that
Think it's time we face facts, do ya?
Your story ain't enough
Are we doomed to pay for love?
Replaceable, gon' replace em all
Blue in my blood and cheap as I want it
I won't take my chance on you
It hurts to be honest but I'm on it
Aint gonna take my place for you

AJAY and brushstroke:
Slow down, cause I'm spinnin' out
Im waiting faithfully now
For these eyes to see through the clouds
I'll wait patiently now
AJAY:
These breaths I'm given, I take each for granted
Just hoping time stays good to me
Hope the years look good on my skin
No, the whiskey don't change a thing
Occasions all tucked away for the days to come
Common themes and lectures in my dreams
They follow me, only shadows of what I thought this would be
Slow down, cause I'm spinnin' out
Im waiting faithfully now
For these eyes to see through the clouds
I'll wait patiently now
brushstroke:
Keep my eyes open, not trying to miss a moment
Dazed in the night as we're crossing lines
I'm done chasing feelings, just tryna keep healing
Time stretches thin and I can't deny
I cant keep running circles 'round myself
I know emotions don't belong on shelves
Slow down, cause I'm spinnin' out
Im waiting faithfully now
For these eyes to see through the clouds
I'll wait patiently now

These Yesterdays

Bedtime
Been bringing through company I wished to expire
This line always reeled me in
But this red wine...
She’s holding me close
She warms my body like mother's love
Some nights that’s just enough
But I’m dreaming of
Yesterday
I can’t carry on these yesterdays
Weight in my bones
Won’t hesitate
Won’t be wary til my resting place
Holding this weight
Let this fade in
Seams are gently breaking
Restless
Pressing me on
Reality’s sleep deprived
Battling a scheme of mine
To leave behind the perfect pieces
Only reason anyone took a
Second glance
Is that precious chance all I want?
Why want what I could’ve got
Yesterday
I can’t carry on these yesterdays
Weight in my bones
Won’t hesitate
Won’t be wary til my resting place
Holding this weight

insects (feat. SRYCHRLY)

SRYCHRLY:
It’s hot as never outside, end times
Why should I even bother with endeavors?
Bed time came a little bit sooner last night
That rye really did a fuckin number
Slumber haunted by the same shit
Got every door locked up with every window open
Letting in insects, buzzin' like mopeds
Unfinished business, I’m goin through the motions
I keep intelligently overthinking both heads
And both of em doin work .. it’s worth it, I’m patched up
Temporary lovin, little somethin to distract us
That typical shit makes the tickin just a little more quick
20 minutes not to listen to the nihilistic shit
Ain’t been no ride or die livin since I was young and
Some of us had run ins, I’m managing somethin
Living check to check on the edge
Lookin for respect to reinvest
Instead I sit and drown in my debt, yeah
AJAY:
I know somebody owe me somethin
Why I always owe them somethin?
One of these days I'm runnin'
Gonna find another lonely somethin

Made the rounds, steady pressin' for a way out
Waves around, sailin' through em'
I'm in the wake now
And the strangest thing, you come you go
You strange now
And I'd play it all again, yeah
But they say them days are played out
Missing the morning sun
Won't wake up the moon at once
And longing for yesterday
Gon' make this a long run
Always runnin' through time
I never slept in the summer shade
Always lookin' so high
I never fell for a simple way
Prefacing, push through them pages to better things
And everything ain't night and day
Let it slip away
In these stranger times, summer morn' quickly turns to winter night
Satisfied by the candlelight
Caffeine daydreams gon' treat me right
Missing the morning sun
Won't wake up the moon at once
And longing for yesterday
Gon' make this a long run
Always runnin' through time
I never slept in the summer shade
Always lookin' so high
I never fell for a simple way
Always runnin' through time
I never slept in the summer shade
Always lookin' so high
I never fell for a simple way

I could write to remember every moment that we spent
I could speak every thought and stop trying to pretend
Face my fears all alone...
Why not in your arms instead?
Beginnings to an end (to an end)
When it’s said and done I won’t forget
Why can’t we talk about it?
When it’s said and done will you forget?
Why can’t we talk about it?

Swindlers

Design so enticing,
Swayed by the kashmir sweaters and full grain leathers
Really got it all (This just might be a dream)
Sleeping through the daylight, hiding out in plain sight
Long as we get paid, right?
Take that one way out, I just took one way out (let me lay it down)
Suddenly ain't no question, sketches sliding into view for me
Suddenly you're projecting
I already see through your eyes, you just might be deceitful
They all been looking like swindlers, circling around on the master plan
Reading the signs, I'm drifting
I already see in your eyes only evils now
Are we all wondering what's beyond the cover page?
Hard to trust in this modern age
Is this love or lusting? On the prowl for something
Hard to trust in this modern age
