Wake Up, Breathe In

I wanna tell you
How you have changed something in me
I don’t have the words yet
I don’t have the nerve and honestly
I never imagined
I could feel safe inside my skin
In my tiny apartment
Now you don’t even know where I live
When you’d leave so early in the morning
Like it was a dream you were ever there
Wake up, breathe in
This fragile way I’m feeling
Wide eyed, reaching
For you and your gentle dreaming
All I know now
Is this new quiet freedom
Wake up, breathe in
Wake up, breathe in
Two months since April
Two months to fill this empty room
I open the window
Letting the air fill up with June
When you’d leave so early in the morning
Like it was a dream you were ever there
Wake up, breathe in
This fragile way I’m feeling
Wide eyed, reaching
For you and your gentle dreaming
All I know now
Is this new quiet freedom
Wake up, breathe in
Wake up, breathe in
Wake up, breathe in
This fragile way I’m feeling
Wake up, breathe in
Wake up, breathe in

City lights, silver screen
Fumbling with my keys
Find a well, drink it clean
Say anything but what I mean
And in the morning I memorized
The poem that was your skin
Under the summer light
Well my heart’s spent all this time growing fonder
But I kinda wanna dream a little longer
If you could see how tall the sky gets
Every time you come around
Come around
Won’t you come around
Button down, powder blue
One look and I am resolute
Hidden doubts, what’s the use
If you say it then it must be true
And in the morning I realized
Everything’s a different colour since
That summer night
Well my heart’s spent all this time growing fonder
But I kinda wanna dream a little longer
If you could see how tall the sky gets
Every time you come around
Come around
Won’t you come around
Sometimes I try to dream about you
Can’t be without you
Wanna know about you
Sometimes dreaming is all I can do
Sometimes I try to dream about you
Can’t be without you
Wanna know about you
Sometimes dreaming is all I can do
Well my heart’s spent all this time growing fonder
But I kinda wanna dream a little longer
If you could see how tall the sky gets
Every time you come around
Come around
Won’t you come around
Come around
Come around
Won’t you come around
Come around
Come around
Won’t you come around
Come around
Come around
Won’t you come around

Did the sun ever come around your corner?
Did that boy ever ask you to dance?
Close my eyes, we’re seven years older
Feels like it was all just happenstance
And I never stood a chance
I imagine you are happy
I hope this is the case
I hope this is the case
When I saw you at the party
You didn’t look away
You didn’t look away
Seems both our mirrors had been broken
Everyday tip toe around the glass
Til one day you started to break open
I should’ve noticed but I forgot to ask
I should have given you a chance
I imagine you are happy
I hope this is the case
I hope this is the case
When I saw you at the party
You didn’t look away
You didn’t look away
And all this time
Never knowing where to draw the line
I don’t mind not knowing
All in time
We’ll find our own ways to feel alive
No matter where we’re going
I imagine you are happy
I hope this is the case
I hope this is the case
When I saw you at the party
You didn’t look away
You didn’t look away

Mirror on the Wall

I don’t know why I cried after our last call
Truth is that you never really had me in your thrall
Vacant eyes look at me like a paper doll
But I liked watching you fuck me in the mirror on the wall
I can see it now
Can you blame me for trying
I can see somehow
Could you tell I was lying
To myself
To you
To everyone I ever knew
But I can see it now
Never got to sleep at night with you in my bed
Should have let you go, pulled you closer instead
Sometimes it’s like there’s someone else inside my head
Who makes all the decisions without my consent
I can see it now
Can you blame me for trying
I can see somehow
Could you tell I was lying
To myself
To you
To everyone I ever knew
But I can see it now
In the mirror on the wall
I see it all
In the mirror on the wall
I see it all
In the mirror on the wall
In the mirror on the wall
I see it all

Black and white
Polaroid of my
Naked body I
Have nobody I
Can give it to
I threw
Every thought of you
Into the lake there’s too
Too much at stake I lose
Every time
Maybe I’m lonely
Maybe I’m not
Maybe I chose this
Maybe I thought
That if you didn’t want me nothing could be worse
That you couldn’t hurt me if I did it first
There isn’t much time left
Says the internet
In that blue light I get
Worried that I might let
It slip away from me
All of my energy
Wasted on empty dreams
Of people who never mean
What they say
Maybe I’m broken
Maybe I’m not
Maybe I chose this
Maybe I thought
That if you didn’t want me nothing could be worse
That you couldn’t hurt me if I did it first

The Dreamer

I think I’d like San Francisco
I could live there one day
But I get the feeling
I’d be dreaming of LA
I heard when it rains in Vancouver
It’s more depressing than the snow
That falls in perfect patterns
On the roof of my family home
They say the grass is always greener
They’re not wrong, they say the dreamer
Is always greater than their dream
You look at me with your kind demeanour
And I know what they mean
Wanna climb the tallest mountain
Sit on top of the world
But god I’d miss the ocean
Watching waves crash on the shore
And it’s nice to be alone
But I don’t know about forever
Maybe I’d feel better
Knowing someone’s down the hall
They say the grass is always greener
They’re not wrong, they say the dreamer
Is always greater than their dream
You look at me with your kind demeanour
And I know what they mean
I thought of him this morning
He looked so pretty in the picture
Memories they flicker
Make you miss what isn’t real
They say the grass is always greener
They’re not wrong, they say the dreamer
Is always greater than their dream
You look at me with your kind demeanour
And I know what they mean
