about

this is another song about feeling really weird and anxious and wanting to roll into the ocean.. bUT also about all the good stuff your friends can do for ya and how important support systems are, you know?

lyrics

As soon as i got home it was like everything was dying
My hands started to shake again and i couldnt stop crying
It felt like i was running out of time to do the things i wanted
Live completely, work, be happy, walk around and not feel haunted
By the things i havent done yet
Graduate and go to college
Try not to die in the process
Use the time that i have got left

And sure there are times when all i got is time
But most of the time i just wanna go to sleep
But instead of counting then i keep murdering sheep
Because i've been having nightmares every fucking night this week!

Sometimes when i wake up from bad dreams i cant move at all
My body full of novocaine my back against the wall
Creatures creeping halt my sleeping, shiver weakly wake up screaming, keep the lights off i dont wanna see the things in my dreams over me
Puh puh puh palpitations
And i start to wheeze
Squeeze my eyelids shut and pull the covers over me

And sure there are times when i feel like im in touch
But most of the time i think too fucking much
And when i think too much i care too much and i'd rather be pissed off
Cuz my heart was on my sleeve and my sleeve just got ripped off!

I grew up
Thinking that i was fucked up
Thinking my family's the only family that argues
Wondering if im a boy or im a girl what are you
Well thank god im done thinking
And thank god my friends reassure to no end that my heads not caving in and im not shrinking
Cuz im filled with so much love
Im bursting at the seams
My head is blowing up!
Please hold me and tape me where i leak.
