Celebrate

I woke up and found myself in grieving for what I'd missed
I've been awake for so much time, I got a taste for it.
And when I felt it on my shoulders, it came down like a tonne of bricks
I felt the warmth escape me when summer left.
Honest I'd rather die than be afraid to live
Convinced myself that I favour to just exist
And when I felt the daylight, I could've died there in your arms
I promised myself that I, I'd pick myself off the pavement.
Now I know that I will make excuses, I know I'm the king of them.
I know I'm the king of bullshit mountain, bow to my blissful ignorance
Now won't you tell me that I'm special, I've got nothing to celebrate
And lift the weight off from my shoulders and watch me float away.
Honest I'd rather die than be afraid to live
Convinced myself that I favour to just exist
And when I felt the daylight, I could've died there in your arms
I promised myself that I, I'd pick myself off the pavement.
Through heartache and strife, celebrate your life.
Honest I'd rather die than be afraid to live
Convinced myself that I favour to just exist
And when I felt the daylight, I could've died there in your arms
I promised myself that I, I'd pick myself off the pavement.

Everything Falls Apart

I think you need to get away from yourself
I wish that I could too, just disconnect and fly.
What would it take to get away from myself?
I'd wanna take you too.
But I'll get cold feet as it builds on me
Slow down now.
Breathe in, you know I've got you with me now.
We got the shit knocked out of us
Somehow, I've never felt more alive
So just place your fears with mine.
And everything falls apart, everything falls apart.
Yeah everything will fall apart, or so they say
but I will pick up all the pieces and I will glue you back again one day.
Slow down now.
Breathe in, you know I've got you with me now.
We got the shit knocked out of us
Somehow, I've never felt more alive
So just place your fears with mine.
Everything falls apart.

How many times can I say this?
'I don't feel right'; 'I'm losing patience'
A never-ending painful cycle,
it's hard to tell when the signs are vital
I wanna feel something real again.
I'll go back to the green house and relive that life that I've already had.
I'm going back to the same house where the rose sunglasses turn it good from bad.
I'll never leave you can drag me out, yeah
I'm sick of being another jaded realist
I'll never leave if it lives in my head
A crescent moon, I just wanna be whole again.
I'll spin around and it's non-stop
I'll disassociate in the day job
I've realised in the last two years nothing changed,
I've always been socially distant
I wanna feel something real again.
I'll go back to the green house and relive that life that I've already had.
I'm going back to the same house where the rose sunglasses turn it good from bad.
I'll never leave you can drag me out, yeah
I'm sick of being another jaded realist
I'll never leave if it lives in my head
A crescent moon, I just wanna be whole again.
I don't, I don't feel right.
Rose-coloured glasses and long nights
I don't, I don't feel right.
Rose glasses keep me up all night.
I'll go back to the green house and relive that life that I've already had.
I'm going back to the same house where the rose sunglasses turn it good from bad.
I'll never leave you can drag me out, yeah
I'm sick of being another jaded realist
I'll never leave if it lives in my head
A crescent moon, I just wanna be whole again.

I found a lonely little voice that lives inside my head
It never leaves, it softly says 'no, you're not better off dead'
I hear it calling when I slip and fall right down that hole
Wraps right around me and I swear it sounds a lot like you.
I get the shakes and I don't know how
to hold together and just figure it out.
Take my hand somehow, I'd like to show you now
this ordinary life, I think I've got it down.
I get the chills that pound when I walk 'round the house
And I feel you in my bones, I feel you every time.
I'll get drunk and fall asleep and welcome all this deja vu
and all the reminders that we're all drowning in an empty pool
And life's passing by at a higher frame rate than what I thought was filmed
I'd skip right to heaven but I don't think I'm on that waiting list.
I get the shakes and I don't know how
to hold together and just figure it out.
I get the shakes and I don't know how
to hold together without you around.
Take my hand somehow, I'd like to show you now
this temporary life, I think I've got it down.
I get the chills that pound when I walk 'round the house
And I feel you in my bones, I feel you every time.
I feel you every time.
And I feel you in my conscience and every shitstorm I find myself in,
when I'm feeling like Fox Mulder and paranoid about fucking everything,
when I fall asleep to white noise I hear your voice in all my memories
Wherever I end up I hope that you remember me.
