Mess 03:18
When I looked up from my phone And I saw you holding hands I knew I couldn't handle it You're with someone I just can't stand I know I need to let you go And I know it's for the best But it seems like you're stuck in here Unlike all the rest I just need to get you off my chest But I never get my way All you ever do is turn me into a mess And I think my mess is here to stay When we take the time to talk Everything's moving backwards But when you talk about him girl, My mind sings like a blackbird I know I need to let you go And I know it's for the best But it seems like you're stuck in here Unlike all the rest I just need to get you off my chest But I never get my way All you ever do is turn me into a mess And I think my mess is here to stay, yeah I just need to get you off my chest But I never get my way All you ever do is turn me into a mess And I think my mess is here to stay

So you took Her heart You ran and ran and ran You don't know why you did it but shit just hit the fan You're gone For good And now she sits alone She's diving so much deeper with every stick and stone She saw Your face She said she saw the guilt And that was when it dawned that you loved someone you killed How do you live and not die? Life is hard that's why nobody survives It's hard to see these problems when your vision's tinted rose It's hard to tell the truth when nobody knows So you said She's lazy And messed up in the head You couldn't be more wrong she did everything you said She smiled And waved Did everything she feared You wouldn't give the raise she'd been there for twenty years You wasted Her time Gave seven twenty-five Standing in your shadow she'd never be alive How do you live and not die? Life is hard that's why nobody survives It's hard to see these problems when your vision's tinted rose It's hard to tell the truth when nobody knows How do you live and not die? Life is hard that's why nobody survives It's hard to see these problems when your vision's tinted rose It's hard to tell the truth when nobody knows

Another phone call at two A.M. Except this one I missed Everything taken from me again It's what made me slip We all thought this leaf was green And that way it would stay But blood will never age like fine wine Our leaf's the color of clairet If there's one thing that I regret It's this shitty apology You thought there was another stair But really just Another reality So say goodbye to trusting It's the biggest perjure here Things might be better as time moves But it's not easier There's no way to say how we feel And we don't even try It's what you don't say that you mean There wasn't even a goodbye Fingernail-shaped scars are what's left Of this summer's day When that leaf found its autumn red And decided death is here to stay But blood will never age like fine wine Our leaf's the color of clairet If there's one thing that I regret It's this shitty apology You thought there was another stair But really just Another reality So say goodbye to trusting It's the biggest perjure here Things might be better as time moves But it's not easier

Locus 04:16
You keep your eye On the dividing line Your sense of safety is a dirty trick Don't signal anyone God forbid this worries you a bit Eyes glazed over Ignorance is bliss We do this every year It's always overdone These lines don't work like walls but where you're sending me is gonna feel like one It's gonna feel like one, yeah One second is all it takes So turn your head And hit the breaks Two ticks to separate us from this dumb mistake One second is all it takes So turn your head And hit the breaks Two ticks to separate us from this dumb mistake One second is all it takes So turn your head And hit the breaks Two ticks to separate us from this dumb mistake One second is all it takes So turn your head And hit the breaks Two ticks to separate us from this dumb mistake So bring in your locus Bring in your locus
