Apollo 40

The lost Gemini twins scattered across the universe
One stabbed me in the back
and the other will die into my arms
And you don’t know much about me
but your everything he could’ve been
As thunders rifts through our conversations
I don't know who I'll become
cause it’s all about the experience
but it’s just so overwhelming
and I don’t know if I can take anymore
I don’t wanna leave my bed
or wreck my head
it’s not that Important in the long run
and I’m just spiralling into oblivion
hoping I become Someone
hoping I’ll become someone
so we'll watch old reruns
of our old favourite past loves
I hope nobody sees me underneath the pink light
Cutting stars into the shapes of your eyes
And it’s all about the experienece
but it’s just so overwhelming
and I don’t know if I can take anymore
I don’t wanna leave my bed
or wreck my head
it’s not that Important in the long run
and I’m just spiralling into oblivion
hoping I become Someone
hoping I’ll become someone
It's Apollo 40
It's mission impossible
and I’ll smile at you through the fogged windows
but It’s a gruelling departure from a desolated hell
but when we get there I’m gonna be happy
I'm gonna be
but it’s just so overwhelming
and I don’t know if I can take anymore
I don’t wanna leave my bed
or wreck my head
it’s not that Important in the long run
and I’m just spiralling into oblivion
hoping I become Someone
hoping I’ll become someone
I'm supposed to be happy
you said when we got here I was gonna be happy x4

hold your drunk texts to the highest regrade
I will re read them over and over
Until my brittle casket overflows
If I’m the most amazing person you know, I really wish you’d show it
I am the sitting duck waiting for your attention
Savouring the taste of this blue moon
Why did I get pulled back in so soon
If I’m the most amazing thing in your life,
I really wish you’d show it
God I really wish you’d show it
I’m making myself insane,
lighting the soles of my feet to sink further into the ground
Because there’s gotta be why outta of this grave I’ve dug
Cause
I’m out of my depth now
Everyone knows
I’m out of my depth now
Everyone can see
I’m out of my depth now
If I’m the most amazing person you know
I really wish you’d show it
And you said that to meeting me couldn’t have come any sooner
But meeting you was the beginning of my funeral

Second Hand Smoke
05:42
|
|||
Drunken murmurs in low light
The bitter trace of you still lingers on my hair
Forehead kisses tattooed on my skull
Saharan skin glided across my lips
As your thumb maps all the stars in the universe on my wrist
But if I had known that getting what I wanted would’ve rendered harmful
I would’ve lived in solitude having never felt the warmth within your arms
Lets talk about it when we’re sober
Let’s talk about it never
I’m breathing in your second hand smoke
But theres no need to role the windows down
Cause I’m already suffocating in your presence
If I don’t laugh, I’ll cry
Can’t even look you in the eyes
Every time I’m getting hopeful
I remember Im just another drunk girl in the dark
Just another girl
I’m too out of my depth to be a realist right now
I no longer like how my name sounds when it comes out of your mouth
I’m done be civil, in an attempt to not make things weird
Because you’ve fucking hurt and that doesn’t seem to bother you one bit
Lets talk about it when we’re sober
Let’s talk about it never
I’m breathing in your second hand smoke
But theres no need to role the windows down
Cause I’m already suffocating in your presence
If I don’t laugh, I’ll cry
Can’t even look you in the eyes
Every time I’m getting hopeful
I remember Im just another drunk girl in the dark
But when I’m laughing with him and the sun beams in I know I’m gonna be alright
And if you’ve taught me anything, its to apperception the people that actually want me in their lives
You never wanted me in your life
I’m breathing in your second hand smoke
But theres no need to role the windows down
Cause I’m already suffocating in your presence
If I don’t laugh, I’ll cry
Can’t even look you in the eyes
Every time I’m getting hopeful
I remember Im just another drunk girl you kissed and regretted in the dark

Let's Talk About The Dog
04:50
|
|||
You wake up at noon
I only talk you at birthdays and funerals
My fragile hands scrape the bumps in the wallpaper
while you yell at your son
for insisting a child should've known better
And well if blood is thicker than water
why denounce you kin
because the water tasted sweeter
You don't have to love me and you don't have to care
Let's talk about the dog if that makes it easier x2
So put me on trial
make a mockery of you're embarrassment then
manufacture a girl who no longer believes in herself
another broken toy on your shelf and well
If there's no place like home
why do I stand on the outskirts
of a life I've never known
You don't have to love me and you don't have to care
Let's talk about the dog if that makes it easier x2
woah x2
swag guitar solo
You don't have to love me and you don't have to care
Let's talk about the dog if that makes it easier x4
