Lucas Just a very real and relatable track on struggling with addiction and the friends we hurt while doing so.

But along with the lows this album also encourages us to keep going, and keep trying to be better even when it’s hard. Favorite track: Kitty You're A Fuckup.

jesus was a trans girl, this I know for the holy bible tells me so she had such long hair and a great big beard and everyone around her thought that she was weird jesus was a communist, this I believe because of the wisdom that I did receive she was poppin’ up bread everywhere she went and people believed she was heaven-sent far from it! maybe she was just really clever or maybe she'll come back I say better late than never! jesus was a feminist, which should be no suprise, she said "if you can't stop staring, better pluck out your eyes" and "blessed are the peacemakers" she also said "cus if you live by the sword you'll fuckin wind up dead!" and jesus loved degenerates, on this hill I'll die all the trannies and queers were the apple of her eye and to all of us she promised it won't be too long until the last shall be first and the weak shall be strong and none shall be afraid! and none shall be afraid! and none shall be afraid! to all you bible thumping bastards waving red white and blue better get with the program, thought you already knew that jesus was brown, yeah, your jesus was a jew and she hated imperialistic motherfuckers like you she said a rich man couldn't get to heaven if he tried might as well shove camel through a needle's eye and if he don't like that he can give away all his shit cus money doesn't matter when the world's gonna split jesus loved the people who were hated and seen as broken and you would love them too if you believed a single word she'd spoken, spoken! jesus was a trans girl, this I know for the holy bible tells me so she had such long hair and a great big beard and everyone around her thought that she was weird and jesus loved degenerates, on this hill I'll die all the trannies and queers were the apple of her eye and to all of us she promised it won't be too long until the last shall be first and the weak shall be strong and none shall be afraid! and none shall be afraid! and none shall be afraid!

i was trapped in a hotel room in florida for a week and all that time my only contact with you was my phone, and i could rarely speak and while my body went to disney world i was pacing in circles inside my mind cus when you told me that you were switching schools i couldn't help but feel like you were leaving me behind and we were trapped in a beach house on hornby island for fourteen days and all that time i believed i was borderline, cus you said so and we were never peaceful, we were fighting always and every morning i said "this day will be okay" but every night i inevitably screamed and cried cus when you told me that you would rather sleep alone it was nothing, but from the way i reacted you woulda thought that i had died oh, you know until you don't know you know until you don't know you know until you don't know and then they're gone well i figured some day i'd stop getting thrown away i just didn't think it would take so long i just didn't think it would take so long i was trapped in school for thirteen years kindergarten and every grade and all that time i believed i was a monster and nobody would ever love me even if they were paid and my teachers said "oh sweetie, we know you're being bullied if it's any consolation, you're pretty damn smart" but when all anybody seems to care about is your brain it's so incredibly easy to forget you have a heart you know until you don't know you know until you don't know you know until you don't know and then they're gone well i figured some day i'd stop getting thrown away i just didn't think it would take so long oh, you know until you don't know you know until you don't know and then they're gone well i figured some day i'd stop getting thrown away i just didn't think it would take so long i just didn't think it would take so long

the day i first met you was in early september and i know you won't, but baby i remember you were beautiful, and you would never notice me and then you did, and then a long time passed the years went by like we were counting too fast we were still farther apart than continents could ever be and now i see, and now i know that you will never hear me saying hello or see me waving my thousandth goodbye to the just the one of us who's never had to hide and that used to bother me, but now i am through with letting my whole universe revolve around you just the one of us who's never needed pride but at least i tried i've got a dress in my bag and a door in my face and they say that the closet's such a terrible place but the light's on in here, and out there it's the middle of the night but my hand's on the handle, i'm done living in fear of what i see when i look in the mirror just the one of us, ugly and alone in the light well maybe you're right, but you should know that you will never hear me saying hello or see me waving another goodbye to the just the one of us who's never had to hide and that used to bother me, but now i am through with letting my whole universe revolve around you just the one of us who's never needed pride and oh, imagine the bench on which i'm sitting alone oh no, you're an hour late and you won't pick up the phone let it go. i guess that leaves just the one of us who cares at all about me but my hand's on the handle and i'm ready to leave the day i first met you, i knew it was love your hair was long and your voice was soft and you were beautiful, something i could never be and then i was, although you weren't aware and i thought that maybe you would finally care but i was still just one of a million fish in the sea and now i believe that you should know that you will never hear me saying hello or see me waving another goodbye to the just the one of us who's never had to hide and that used to bother me, but now i am through with letting my whole universe revolve around you just the one of us who's never needed pride yeah, you will never hear me saying hello or see me waving another goodbye to the just the one of us who's never had to hide and that used to bother me, but now i am through with letting my whole universe revolve around you just the one of us who's never needed pride but at least i tried

Hydrogen 05:35
i am starting to feel like my head is weightless come and be weightless with me i feel like my whole body is weightless floating, placid, ten miles beneath the surface of a midnight sea i feel like i've been split into my parts molecules that together make up my soul so come be my modem, decypher my heart into something that'll never get old and save my life, please read the lines in my spectrum and tell me if hydrogen in my heart lies let it be lighter than air, cus right now it's infected diseased with the weight of my sins and my lines not featherweight, but as a feather disguised i feel like i've been split into my parts molecules that together make up my soul so come be my modem, decypher my heart into something that'll never get old i feel like my mind's being sent as a telegram bouncing off the atmosphere and out into space i feel like our spirits now form a venn diagram two equal circles that occupy the same place and save my life, please read the lines in my spectrum and tell me if hydrogen in my heart lies let it be lighter than air, cus right now it's a plectrum too burdened to lift from the strings in your eyes aorta unable to love or despise aorta unable to love or despise and save my life, please read the lines in my spectrum and tell me if hydrogen in my heart lies let it be lighter than air, cus right now it's a plectrum too burdened to lift from the strings in your eyes aorta unable to love or despise aorta unable to love or despise

we didn't talk on the long drive there and it wasn't hard not to stare in fact i found it hard to look at all and she wasn't there to catch me so it's good that i didn't fall i didn't feel my feet swept out from under me nor the urge to get down upon my knees and though she made me die a pleasant little death when i think about you, i get all out of breath i get drunk when i get depressed i stay up when i need rest and i wonder why i feel like shit and i don't know what it is i need to do to get better but i'm pretty sure this ain't it all the red flags didn't look red at the time you were the miniature heart inside of mine but i was filled with poison and i didn't know what to do i was filled with poison and i let it leach through to you but there's a symbol i keep seeing in all of my dreams but it keeps changing and i don't know what it means there's a symbol i keep seeing in all of my dreams and it keeps changing and i don't know what it means yeah the symbol's not the thing it used to symbolize this is not a pipe, it's a crock of lies this is not a gateway to heaven like we planned this is not the ocean, it's a bucket full of sand there's a symbol i keep seeing when i get high and it keeps changing and i don't understand why it's in primary colours it's so vibrant it won't leave me alone and it keeps changing but i think it means home

i can't believe i have grown so tall to still be ruled by fear i close my eyes on the long fall push away everyone that's near i bare my teeth and i snarl when i'm hurting see the tears when you call my name the flood is rising above my head you pump the water out of my lungs and lay me to bed but i'm drowning all the same but i'm drowning all the same cus i've got nothing to gain it's easier to stay numb anyway and i'm picking fights under city lights i'm fireproof, i'm airtight but did you ever see a firefly catch fire and die beneath a cardboard sky? cus trees are lighting forest fires and the people on my screen are liars did you ever see a lioness leave her pride cus she was too afraid to go outside? i can't believe i have grown so tall to still be ruled by fear buried in the burning wreckage of it all wish i could just disappear i walk on my knees through a forest of needles and pins and i feel nothing at all cus i've thickened my skin and i'm picking fights under city lights i'm fireproof, i'm airtight but did you ever see a firefly catch fire and die beneath a cardboard sky? cus trees are lighting forest fires and the people on my screen are liars did you ever see a lioness leave her pride cus she was too afraid to go outside too afraid to go outside too afraid to go outside too afraid to go outside too afraid to go outside?

sometimes it feels so weird to be a lady with a beard and my body becomes the embodiment of everything i've feared it's so easy to spend all day in bed wishing there was nothing i'd ever said and that every ray of light that touched me disappeared sometimes it feels so strange to think of how much i have changed in the past few years, despite apathy compelling me to stay the same the road to justice is long and the road to peace is too and it asks of me to unlearn all the fucked up things i thought i knew but yeah, i am gonna make it there step by fragile step i'm gonna kick at the darkness and break all the boxes til there's none left and i will shout it out! i'm just the same as who i was before and nothing you can say or do will change me i am myself! a little more myself than i knew how to be a little more myself than previously, oh than previously i'm sick of playing the same old songs i'm sick of worrying all day long i'm sick of letting myself rot until i stink cus maybe my life's gonna be a constant disaster and maybe there's some way that i can ruin it faster but if i’m being honest, i know that's no way to think cus i've gotta float if i don't sink shout it out! i'm just the same as who i was before and nothing you can say or do will change me i am myself! a little more myself than i knew how to be a little more myself a little more myself a little more myself than i knew how to be than previously the world is burning under my feet so i've gotta stay on the edge of my seat or else i'll fall asleep or else i'll fall asleep the world is burning under my feet so i've gotta stay on the edge of my seat or else i'll fall asleep or else i'll fall asleep each and every single life is important each and every single life is important don't you dare tell me otherwise cus i'll never believe your lies each and every single fucking life is important each and every single fucking life is important don't you dare tell me otherwise cus i'll never believe your lies shout it out! i'm just the same as who i was before and nothing you can say or do will change me i am myself! a little more myself than i knew how to be a little more myself a little more myself a little more myself than i knew how to be than previously and i'll be a little more myself a little more myself a little more myself than i knew how to be than previously! the world is burning under my feet so i've gotta stay on the edge of my seat or else i'll fall asleep

at 17 i didn’t think i’d make it to 20 but i wrote this song when i was 21 i know it’s not a big number but i never thought i’d see the earth make so many circles round the sun i thought my life was disposable, so i’d throw it away but i never really had the nerve to take out the trash it was like some part of me always understood that soul can’t burn away like smoke and ash that soul can’t burn away like smoke and ash how do i make sure that i get out of bed today? how do i make sure i don’t regret getting out of bed today? i have to make sure somehow that i get out of bed today so how do i make sure that i get out of bed today? i miss your stink and the way our bodies fit together when we spoon but you got tired of me barking at your finger when you were pointing at the moon and i’m so so tired of waiting for myself to happen i’m so so tired of waiting for myself to happen and you're so so tired of waiting for me to happen so so tired of waiting for me to happen well i know i have to manage it, some way or some how cus nobody's waiting behind me as the years turn under the plow i can count em off on my hand, it's been a couple since shit hit the fan and i'm still here, so i'm sure i'll last a couple more and i promise you i won't wait by the door but in five years i'll still be here after all the warning shots i’ve fired you'll need a rest, cus god knows you're tired of taking care of me so take some space to breathe take as long as you need cus i believe in five years i'll still be here the day after my boy left me, i spent hours in bed and I dreamed that there was an black dog barking in my head it told me "fuck you, man, you are worse than nothing you are a soft teddy bear with sharp metal stuffing" the day after my friends told me not to contact them anymore i baked chocolate chip cookies, i'd made the dough just for them the day before i felt their hurt like a stabbing pain in my chest i felt like crying but i knew i was trying my best i felt like dying but i knew i was trying my best how do i make sure that i get out of bed today? and how do i make sure i don’t regret getting out of bed today? well in five years i'll still be here after all the patience i’ve required you'll need a rest, cus god knows you're tired of taking care of me so take some space to breathe take as long as you need cus i believe, after all in five years i'll still be here after all the bullshit that's transpired you'll need a rest, cus god knows you're tired of taking care of me so take some space to breathe take as long as you need cus i believe, after all in five years i'll still be here when you call
