if you look up into the sky
and see the birds that fly on high
above the trees, an endless green,
the clouds will form a powerful shroud
and all that lies underneath is irrelevant
a monument to ruling classes endless greed
how i would long to be up there,
above it all, without a care
it all unfolds, i'm not involved
the pleasure principle embolds
this place that i once called my home
that capital's turned to shit and mold
the london banker's cargo hold
the local lakes now barren holes
the luxury apartments filled with snow
you can go ice skating in the world to come
once it freezes over
when it freezes over
over
and over and over again

i'm trying really hard to be something more than myself
all these days are endless
hours on hours they wear me out
all this pleasure-seeking
all these pleasures just run out
kill my ego or kill my self, just wear me out
take me out to dinner
talk to me for hours
just wear me down
and when i'm all defenseless
throw me in the fire
take me out
use your powers, take me out
so tired of being me
so can i just retreat and live inside your shadows for a while?
one last time?
one last time

i don't see you
anymore
ever since you
walked out the door
your blood is purple
bleeding out all on the floor
you're suffering
ink poisoning
heroin
cocodamol
you don't understand
the afterglow
you don't understand
you don't understand how good it feels to watch your team win
on the TV
on the big screen
on the radio
haven't seen you
ever since you ran away
haven't seen you
ever since you made me stay
i don't see you
ever since you've changed a lot
you haven't called me
since 67
i'm starting to understand
heroin
cocodamol

3, 2, 1
i'll walk behind you
you can take the lead
you're always late
and you never speak to me
ALL THESE PEOPLE LOOK LIKE FLIES FROM UP HERE
ALL THESE PEOPLE LOOK LIKE FLIES FROM UP HERE
THESE ARE THE PEOPLE
THAT YOU'RE LETTING
RUIN YOU
you let them ruin you
take a pill
and pray that it makes you feel better
and swallow it
even if it tastes bad
ALL THESE PEOPLE LOOK LIKE FLIES FROM UP HERE
ALL THESE PEOPLE LOOK LIKE FLIES FROM UP HERE
THESE ARE THE PEOPLE
THAT YOU LET RUIN YOU
you let them do this to you
you let them do this to you
you let them do this to you
you let them do this to you

he's got long hair and 50 salem t-shirts
and i don't know why he's wearing a parka in the club
but i don't care, it doesn't matter
what's important is that he's here
and he's real
and it feels just like a sign
from God
it's like i'm dancing to tay-k with benjamin reichwald
and it feels just like i'm having trouble breathing
he's the best musician out of stockholm, sweden
and i don't know if my heart's still beating
after all of this
all of this

bleed easily
03:07
|

tell me everything
tell me what you want me to hear
tell me what you think i want to hear
just trust me
for once in your life
just trust me
leave it to me
i bleed easily
leave it to me
i bleed easily
does it have to be so complicated?
if it was up to me it wouldn't be
but it was never up to me
nothing's ever up to me
leave it to me
i bleed easily
leave it to me
i bleed easily
with a little bit of help

i'm never going back
i'm never coming home
night bus postcode
which way nobody knows
i'm never coming back now
i'm never going home again
i'm never coming home
i'm never going home again
i'm never going home
i'm never going back now
i'm never going home
i'm never coming home again
i'm never coming home

i never wanted to outlive you
but it's looking like i might do
all these things that i would undo
all these things that i would say that i forgot to
i wished that you would pull through
i never got to hear you singing
i never got to get that tour around your state
i never got to show you i could be someone
i never got to become someone i was proud of
today i am 19
you will be 22 in 25 weeks
i don't know what i've been doing all these years
but i'm sure it's less
than what you would've done
just for the sake of it
let's add on another one
i'm only here by God's graces
i'm only here cus mr. muscle wasn't strong enough that time
i'm only here because the bible told me not to kill myself
and this time round i'm listening
THIS TIME ROUND I'M LISTENING
THIS TIME ROUND I'M LISTENING

endlessly ascending

it's starting to feel like something
before it felt unreal
it's starting to feel normal
before it just felt weird
they're kissing in the backseat
they're making me feel weird
they're cutting me wide open
i know it's not just me

slow growth

i've been trying to make things easier
i've been trying to make you happier
all the peace is in the Unity
all the hope is in the Unity
and through my failures i can only hope to grow
i've been trying to make things easier
but i can only try so hard

compassion
02:40
|

you're 22 without a clue
you're laying down, you're being lazy
you're drinking beer, you don't know when you got here
you don't know how either
oh how i'd hate to be like you
you'd hate to be like me too
and so i pray 3 times a day
for a greater understanding
i'm trying to work on my compassion
i know you hate my reaction
there's not much i can do
that i'm not already trying
and i can only hope that as i grow older that the truth
will become self-evident
