cosmic relief

Have you seen this new ASMR?
Where they squeeze
Sponges filled with soapy foam
And scrape away the stars
To gratify the hair upon your arms
And keep you whistling
Keep me on fire, keep me on fire, I'll be alright
Keep me on fire, I'll be alright, I'll be just fine
Into the burning gaze
Winds will obscure my ashes
Call me a liar cause I'm so alive
Have you seen this new ASMR?
Yes indeed
Or maybe you've texted the wrong guy
Have you seen the time? Gotta go do crimes (Oh no)
But there's cupcakеs in the fridge
To keep you whistling
Keep me on firе
(Now you know how I feel)
(Say you can handle that my love is for real)
(Please say you always borrow more than you steal)
The milk has expired so call me a liar but now I'm inspired to plant some more TREES
Keep me on fire, keep me on fire, I'll be alright
Keep me on fire, I'll be alright, I'll be just fine
Into the burning gaze
Winds will obscure my ashes
Call me a liar cause I'm so alive
Keep me on fire (Now you know how I feel)
Keep me on fire (Now you know my love's real)
I was expired, I was inspired into the night
Call me a liar cause I'm so alive
I'm so alive
I'm so alive
(You that I love, you that I like)
I'm so alive
(You that I love, you that I like)
I'm so alive

Close Talker
02:24
|

tell me all the things that you know about
don't wanna look it up, wanna hear from u
and even though i dono what you're talkin bout
I know that every word that you say is true
Tongue tie the new close talker
Close call for anyone listenin
Tongue tie the new close talker
Close call for anyone, listen in
Class clowns and funeral marchers
Cast call the moon night monsters
Tongue tie the new close talker
In half time
I think its kind of cute how you chase clout
I hate the way you dance hoping they approve
but maybe all that just reminds me of myself
I hate the part of me that I see in you
So I won't talk trash,
I won't talk back you heard me
I'm learning every time when I speak those lines
I broadcast insecurity
Tongue tie the new close talker
Close call for anyone listenin
Tongue tie the new close talker
Close call for anyone, listen in
Class clowns and funeral marchers
Cast call the moon night monsters
Tongue tie the new close talker
In half time
Talk is cheap so you can't talk fast
But now I'm in a hurry so you better talk fast
I can't keep track, can you repeat that?
One more time

Lately
The days all blend together
The same things
And melancholy nights
Sunbeams
Might change up the weather
But in my dreams I wonder where you are
You're just on the horizon
Though I know not to indulge, darling
I'm looking high and low
For my gumdrops
I left them on the counter
Gumdrops
Someone hid the jar, darling
The simple pleasure keeps my last 2 brain cells
From wondering where you are
You saw me at thе turnstile
And I said I'm doing fine, darling
In one word wе said goodbye
That's the scene in my mind
As I eat my gumdrops
They taste so sweet and sour
Gumdrops
They're never very far, darling
The simple pleasure keeps my last two braincells
From wondering where you are
From my gumdrops
I left them on the counter
Gumdrops
Someone hid the jar, darling
The simple pleasure keeps my last two brain cells
From wondering where you are
I wonder where you are
I gaze upon the stars
And wonder where you are
I wonder where you are

TUBE
02:24

I am enamored by your love
I'm an animal
Enamored by you
Who am I to deny your light
On your light I rely
You're the love by which I'm defined (I'm defined)
I am an island in the sky
A denial of islands in you
You're the sun, I'm the moon, I'm the sea
But I'm bound by the trees
And I live to protect your peace
All the time
But I'm stuck in a Tube
I'm a bastard
The two dimensions in which I'm confined
For all time
I'm a sun, I'm a moon, I'm a tree
Your light invigorates my leaves
But my longest branch can't reach
You know why I can't be a seed
You know that I'm stuck in a Tube
I'm a bastard
The two dimensions in which I'm confined
Are dooming me to choose from left or right
Choose (Your master)
The metal pipe in which you will reside
For all time

Nothing Funny
02:10

There's nothing funny
I'm running from the wreckage I wrote
I'm passin on the gas and I choked
(It's just a joke)
I didn't get the joke now I cope by eating cornflakes
There's no laughin when I'm snackin on the dfjshdhasdkjsdfnnsda
(SCOTT)
Now you know to never ever ever do it again
Next time you do it where a diaper when you shit in the bed
Next time you do it where a condom during sex with your friends
(SCOTT)
We can't be friends
When this is over we will all look back and laugh
Ha, ha look at the past it was bad
Now I've got new shoes and a brand new sweater
Look at my life!
It's getting so much better
It's getting so much better.
My name is richard and I'm very afraid
My name is henry and I'm very afraid, I'm afraid
My name is wayne and I'm very afraid
My name is james and I'm very afraid, I'm afraid
My name is richard and I'm very afraid
My name is henry and I'm very afraid, I'm afraid
My name is wayne and I'm very afraid
My name is james and I'm very afraid, I'm afraid
There's no more laughin
I'm suckin on the puns and I choked
I clowned till I drowned in the smoke
(Don't smoke)
Deleting all my tweets every time I get stoned
I broke my funny bone throw me a phone
(There's nothing funny)
And now I know to never ever ever ever do it to me
This time I'll wear a diaper while I take a shit on my energy
This time I'll wear a condom during sex with my enemies
(SCOTT)
Am I an enemy?
You are my best friend
Our friendship will never come to an end and I'm enamored by the vibes you send
Roses are red, violets are blue
And I think you are a cool guy, bro you shine bright
Bro you shine bright
Bro you shine bright
(There's nothing funny)
Bro you shine bright
(It's not funny)
Bro you shine bright
(It's just a joke)

Nice to meet ya! i'm digging a hole
I'll never give you the remote control
I'm calling as I'm falling down the same hole that I dug last time
I wanna see ya! Or maybe I don't
You'll run for miles when you see my hole
I'm sprawling as I'm crawling down the crevasse where I keep my crumbs
The moon is howling at my window
Let me cook my feast
For the queen, for the queen, for the
Put it in the ground, put it in the ground
The careless oxen yawn and mangle songs stuck in their throats
For the queen to rectify the bad blood with her ghost
Don't throw out your rusty shovel guess who just struck gold
In the hole, in the hole, in the
Keep it in the ground, keep it in the ground

Who's gonna call ya name?
Ya never really get any younger
How long will you wait?
You're waiting for an angel up high
To swoop on down and bring you to light
You'd rather wait forever than try
When you were half your age
The jitters put a ball in your throat
It made stuff hard to say
But now we're not in 2005
Cause every single year it's the same (La la la la la)
You tell yourself you like it this way (La la la la la)
Who's gonna call ya name?
When you are older
Who's gonna call ya name?
You're stuck in the middle
You're stuck in the middle
You're stuck in the middle
When you gonna make the change?
You're stuck in the middle
Who's gonna call ya name
When this is over
You don't trust no one to stay
And mend your heart
Who's gonna call ya name
When you grow older
Who's gonna call ya name
You're stuck in the middle

girl i'm so sorry bro

Girl I'm so sorry sro
I've been thinking of the words to say
Bro I'm so sorry girl
This is literally my first mistake
I cringe just thinkin' bout
When I fell on you and broke your face
And now the angels know the error of my ways
Please take me at my word
Never meant to break into your house
I never realized
Just how bad it would be for my clout
The winds of right and wrong have coalesced in shame
I reprimand the deed I carry with my name
We could breathe a little deep in a 1, 2, 3
If some people had the courage to say
Girl I'm sorry bro
What can I do to repay
We could get some more shit done in a 3, 2, 1
With some people who are willing to say
Bro I'm sorry girl
Forever and more always
We could breathe a little deep in a 1, 2, 3
If some people had the courage to say
Girl I'm sorry bro
What can I do to repay
On the same side of the sun in a 3, 2, 1
There's the people who are too quick to cave
Like I'm sorry girl
Forever and more always
Girl I'm sorry bro
What can I do to repay
Bro I'm sorry girl
Forever and more always
Girl I'm sorry bro
What can I do to repay

we sail on endless waters
inside a jar that floats along the sea
reciting to our sons and daughters
songs among the breeze in a song among the breeze
we only are our islands
enlivened by the promise to the trees
all nourishing solemnly
into eternity
we stand in turbulent symmetry
in thanks to glimpse at peace
we only are our islands
we only are our islands
we only are our islands
rise, shine, open eyes
soak in the sounds
here them outpour
in your hands as water from the creaking faucet trickles down
rise, shine
aim your aching limbs upright!
I don’t deserve to feel it
I don’t deserve to fear it
Don’t glorify
And we only are
We are on fire
Fire
Fire
Fire
Fire
