keep hurting my eyes and moaning
just stare at the sun less or just
go out and touch grass you're lonely,
crying, pale and your skin's now burning
so don't take me outside
I'll go in due time
keep hurting my eyes and moaning
just stare at the sun less or just
go out and touch grass you're lonely,
crying, pale and your skin's now burning

(vera)
i know i'm never alone
in rose gold camouflage
forgetting how far i've come
i just don't have friends like these at home
(tammy)
they know, they know it all
they think you're wasting time
i know it's always been like this
i'm picking at the seams
but no one's listening
the sun is setting down
the sky is falling down
the sky is falling down?
the sky is falling
(vera)
i know i'm never alone
in rose gold camouflage
forgetting how far i've come
i just don't have friends like these at home
(tammy)
it's all in my head
i know they suck

(vera)
sunshine on thistle-lined nests of transphobes
ear piercing whistles make it seem so blissful
from a distance so small bird call signals distort
let the kids know,
they can resist undertow
don't make them feel alone
and let the lifeline overgrow
it's not hard to be hateful
handouts make the wrists glow

sunsets on asphalt
broken by tree roots
glass shards lit up paths
can't believe i miss u
from broken bottles
spirits escaping
glass shards lit up pasts
can't believe i miss u
sunsets on asphalt
broken by tree roots
glass shards lit up paths
can't believe i miss u
from broken bottles
spirits escaping
glass shards lit up pasts
can't believe i miss u
(tammy)
look at the sky i wish the rain would stop
i've been thinking about you every time my eyes get lost
don't return to me because i don't wanna talk with you
it's all good
it's fine
it's all good
it's fine
it's all good
it's fine
it's all good
it's fine
it's all good
it's fine
it's all good
it's fine
it's all good
it's fine
it's all good
it's fine

(vera)
i can’t keep holding back
outside they call my name
i don't think i'm better than
i'm trying to pretend
i just don’t think i can get down from here
i’ve fallen apart again
i’ve fallen apart again
i’ve fallen apart again
i’ve fallen apart again
i know,
i'm tired too
i know that i'm upsetting you
fire fought my breathe for you
from dusk until the dawn
i know,
im tired too
i know that im upsetting you
fire fought my breathe for you
from dusk until the dawn
i know,
i know,
it's just a forest fire
i wish to stay beside you
but if everything subsides
will u think that i'm a liar?
i know,
i know,
i know,
i know,
it's just a forest fire
(tammy)
it's all a ruse, absent we ember
it's hard to feel and i miss her

(tammy)
you can't stop the drowning and the violence in my head
you had made up someone you've not met
i don't need you
you don't hear the cellos and the choir by my bed
you rest upon arms that which caress
hopeless dreamer

(vera)
with cold hands and stammered breath
i draw the lines until my death
got a voice beating in my chest
bleeding out what's next what's next
trying to relax but i'm hurt from stress
colour between lines until my death
got a voice beating in my chest
bleeding out what's next what's next
(tammy)
compress myself into a shape
depress my bones into a paste
enriched by my pursuits

piercing UVs cut me
Wherever I want to be
Another forgotten
I saw them leave far away
Up and out, I saw your leaves sail

i like it when you take me to the river
you don't assume its real
i'm saved and sailed
across the bloody river full of nails
i know something's different
feel my fingers crack
i see colours shifting
you don't think it hurts me
but i'm saved and sailed
across this bloody river full of nails!!
across this bloody river full of nails!!
across this bloody river full of nails!!
across this bloody river full of nails!!

Sit still, lingering here unsatisfied with it. You know...
Standing alone...
Standing alone
Standing alone
It's you, all alone
Standing alone
