Toilet TV

I love sitting at home, staring at my phone with the TV on in the back just to fill the room with noise.
So no one can scorn as I take off my pants and I watch...
Na na na na, na na na na na

Verse 1
The fight's so much closer right here
You don't even need a partner, just lend an ear
You're thinking fast, you're thinking back, it's not really that clear
You were ok, tension building fear
Chorus
So meet me at the back of the room
I've got something that'll make you go in bloom
and you might make it out just fine
'cuz we know that you're trapped in your mind
Verse 2
You grab your phone, you start to dial
Should you call them up? It's probably been a while
You're lonely in a room full of them
And you keep on lying, always trying to blame him

How Do We Know Who Won

Verse 1
Found barely breathing, he never wanted to make confrontation.
Don't forget to follow the rules
Chorus
Always watching
Never stopping
How do we know who won? x 2
Verse 2
"But not all are"
"Who will save us from?"
Ya, who will save us from all of them when it's said and done

Verse 1
I strive to be more but I struggle to grasp what's for me and you
There's more than this, but I can't explain I'm a hypocrite
Standing far and looking tall, my biggest feat wasn't at all
Why even say a word, my thoughts are empty and absurd
Chorus
And call it now
You'll be reknowned
It's all so clear
Looking back in fear
Verse 2
More and more my sin breaks in but it feels like my next of kin
Grab the needle and the ice, I'm here to show you what's a vice
It's so much easier to deflect than look inside and truly commit x 2
Bridge
Why look inside?
When there's nowhere to hide?
Is the answer really within?
Will the answer crawl my skin?

Please Stay (Far Away)
02:38
|
|||
|
Verse 1
There's something that I can't quite put my finger on
It feels like I am unplugged and on
I've got answers! No wait, they're gone
This familiar feeling feels oh so wrong
Chorus
And I... scared myself away
as I.... convinced myself to stay
Then I... tried to run away
As I... struggled just to say
Verse 2
Why is it always so easy just to get to?
And such a goddamn nightmare just to try and get through?
But maybe it's over and we'll go on and continue?
No fucking way, it's a trick. I tell you
Outro
and I can't take what is going on,
Leave me be, but stay around and then be gone
and I'll take this for chance, I know I can't repeat
Just stay and leave, you're wrong
