- Lyrics: |-
- I say hello to you again
- My near and dearest friend
- We watch the weather come and go
- (But my heart won't play pretend)
- Am I the person you expect?
- Maybe no and maybe yes
- The answer seems some in-between
- (Or multiplicitous)
- I say hello to you again
- My old and newest friend
- Like autumn, winter, into spring
- (My heart will make amends)
- So we might sound a little different, or like we never even left
- Yeah, we could say the same or embrace the change
- But we're better off this way

- Lyrics: |-
- I sat out in the rain
- To soothe my racing brain
- But anxiety comes through
- When I begin to think of you
- Oh I study where I am
- To try and ground myself again
- But I am led astray
- And distracted by the rain
- Oh, my gentle heart beats for you, oh
- And all I can hear rings so true
- But my gentle heart is pained to see
- My darkest fears, my jealousy
- So my gentle heart trusts in you
- That you might know what to do
- I talk to you again
- We talk about our friends
- And everything that we're built on
- How when I'm down it seems far gone
- And that feeling comes again
- That doubt for everything I am
- It's easier with you
- But it's so hard for me to trust the truth
- Oh, my gentle heart beats for you
- And all I can hear rings so true
- But my gentle heart is pained to see
- All of the shadows inside of me
- So my gentle heart breaks in two
- When I think of losing you
- I'm sprawled out in the rain
- My energy is drained
- And anxiety comes through
- To tell me that my fear is true
- It's roaring at my back
- The pain of everything I lack
- But I don't think its true
- I'll trust that you can love me too

- Lyrics: |-
- (Fuck, what am I?)
- I feel a feeling indescribable
- My head is spinning like a bicycle wheel
- (And the words come flooding into my ears)
- But my mind is stolen right from under me
- I'm overcome with every feeling for you
- (Yet my voice is just content to stay clear)
- I love you, adore you
- I hope that doesn't bore you
- I want you, I need you
- Oh god, I want to speak, but- but- b-bleh
- But it's so hard to say the things that I'm thinking
- Like steel in water, I'm sinking
- (Too many to say)
- I babble in wordless form
- Getting lost in the feeling
- When I see you beaming
- The things around me lose meaning
- (Asemic and gray)
- And Jupiter's endless storm
- Just a stain on the ceiling
- And I'm inconsolable
- There's no more words to be spoken
- (Just melting letters in fantastical forms)
- Like the spill of the milky way
- All my words come out broken
- And I don't even know what they should mean
- (All my feelings unseen)
- I say a phrase unrecognizable
- My sense is stolen by some sly little thief
- (I just hope that you somehow get what I mean)
- My heart, it beats so fast
- (And it shatters like its glass)
- Do you know who the beat breaks for?
- Just chasing around a sunbeam
- (Reflected off my phone screen)
- I'll take what I can get, no more
- I love you, so dearly
- But I can't say it clearly
- I stammer for hours
- And- and- and- umm
- 'Cause it's so hard to say the things that I'm feeling
- A fish out of water, I'm reeling
- (Too many to say)
- My head flies to meet the clouds
- Watch it bounce off the ceiling
- My greeting is nonsense
- I talk in pictures, no content
- (Asemic and gray)
- I'm hopelessly beyond my means
- So far out of the context
- I'm purely emotional
- My love conveyed in the worst way
- (Just melting letters in fantastical forms)
- Laid prostrate beside myself
- And that words that I should say
- But I can't move my mouth to match my heart
- (They work so far apart)
- I move so fast but end up where I start
- (Less than all of my parts)
- But if you navigate it
- Maybe you can validate it
- And we can call these abstract works of art
- (Drawn right onto my heart)
- And if I bridge the gap from thought to speech
- (Find the words that I need)
- Then I could tell you what you mean to me

- Lyrics: |-
- "Don't you want to feel seen? Don't you want to be heard?
- You can be complete, in a single word"
- That's the thing they say, that's the point of view
- In a single word, that is all of you
- But ain't it plain to see that it's all for show
- Just a snide appeal to the status quo
- You can be much more than a catchy tune
- But if it don't sell well, they don't want that 'you'
- So is it worth it in the end
- To close your eyes and make pretend
- That you can find your satisfaction in a brand?
- I wanna be nothing with you
- A thing that can't be viewed
- No careful meaningful design
- Not easily reduced
- We'll be an idea, not the truth
- Not something you can prove
- Subliminal, invisible
- Unthinkable anew
- I wanna be nothing with you
- And make the world confused
- No holding up to scrutiny
- Impossibly obtuse
- And maybe folk will call us mistaken
- Try to fit us into a station
- But I'd rather be a phantom
- Than a fucking target group
- (I wanna be-)
- (I wanna be-)
- Maybe you're convinced that it's really true
- And the man up top really does see you
- But it all falls flat experientially
- Capital don't care unless it means money
- But is it worth it in the end
- To close our eyes and make pretend
- Our love's a thing that they could ever understand?
- (I wanna be-)
- Why don't you be nothing with me?
- A gentle force unseen
- So ultraviolet, infrared
- We live beyond belief
- Unstring all the ties and guarantees
- To be with everything
- We'll write the words our stories tell
- And take them underwing
- (I wanna be-)
- So come and be nothing with me
- All red and gold and green
- Our peace of mind is undefined
- Empyrean, obscene
- And maybe folk will try to define us
- Through some definition divide us
- But they'll never truly hide us
- If they don't know what we mean
- (I wanna be nothing)
- (I wanna be-)
- (I wanna be-)
- (I wanna be-)
- We'll be nothing in the end
- A form that no one comprehends
- But I am real and you're real
- And we're something real again
- And so it's worth it in the end
- To close our eyes, and to transcend
- We do our best to dodge the real and play pretend

- Lyrics: |-
- You think that you've got it all
- But you don't know the half of it
- You're a lizard sat atop a rock
- And you don't even know the size of it
- There's a feeling setting fires in your chest
- And though you always shoot then let another ask the rest
- Maybe you should stop ignoring what you've known for all this time
- Your stalwart soul is begging you to open wide, set alight
- Paisley patterns adorn her soul
- A pink wallpaper on a cabinet door
- Throw wide those gates and let the feeling pass
- Make a true protector from a heart of glass
- You might say the sword and shield has never suited you
- But who would wield it stronger and more passionate than you?
- A love that burns aflame like nothing else I've ever seen
- The fuel to keep a gentle heart burning clean
- You think she's a know-it-all
- She thinks you're... a lot of things
- But you can make her spirit sing
- And she'll make sure your heart will thaw (She says)
- "Love will conquer all of you and all of me"
- And being by her side, well, you can't help it but believe
- She's a timid little presence with a fire in her eyes
- And your reflection sits inside, catalyzed and set alight
- Paisley patterns adorn her soul
- A teardrop painted on a maple board
- One gentle echo of a long-lost past
- Let her put some color in a heart of glass
- You might think shes held up by some long-forgotten ways
- But maybe there is value in the things she has to say
- A love to keep a family tied together evergreen
- The fuel to keep a gentle heart burning clean
- You think that you've got it all
- But you don't know the half of it
- Paisley Pudge, its a simple phrase
- But its a title with a lot of weight
- My little darling in a hand-built world
- An inspiration to a lonely girl
- You will never know the kinds of things you mean to me
- But isn't that the beauty of a character, you think?
- A love that's unconditional and just for you and me
- The fuel to keep a gentle heart burning clean
- And running like a lean machine, so pristine
- And though the words are failing me, incomplete
- We'll call it what it wants to be - bittersweet
- Paisley Pudge, Paisley Pudge, Paisley Pudge, Paisley Pudge
- PAISLEY PUDGE!

- Lyrics: |-
- Silent and lugubrious, I wander down the hall
- Time gets wasted here, I think I've lost it all
- You masqueraded as the one to save my soul
- But now I know; a sublingual dose
- Sugary sweet like candy
- Rotting my teeth and memory
- Annihilating my purpose
- Now I've melted in your mouth
- Biting my tongue for answers
- Sucking that sweet for hours
- Fucking my head up proper
- Now my stomach hurts
- Oh, gummyworm
- Oh, gummyworm
- Oh, gummyworm, do I make you squirm?
- I sent my soul somewhere far away
- Oh, gummyworm
- Oh, gummyworm
- Oh, gummyworm, does the memory hurt?
- I lost my mind, now I'm in a daze
- (Oh, I forgot the words)
- As I stumble through the door
- Mind is racing still; it leaves me wanting more
- You fogged my vision up, now everything's obscured
- You go to work; my god, it hurts
- Absolute awful shithead
- Trusting the things that you said
- Eroding my sense of comfort
- I am falling faster now
- Saccharine empty fleeting
- Colorful words with no meaning
- Stuffing my face with sugar
- Crashing straight into the ground
- Oh, gummyworm
- Oh, gummyworm
- Oh, gummyworm, do I make you squirm?
- I sent my soul somewhere far away
- Oh, gummyworm
- Oh, gummyworm
- Oh, gummyworm, does the memory hurt?
- I lost my mind, now I'm in a daze

- Lyrics: |-
- There's a fire burning within me
- (Enough to set a mind alight)
- Keeps me safe from what hurts me
- That's why it started
- But there's burns on my heart now
- All cauterized and scarred up
- (Doesn't do much more than hurt us)
- And I still fight as much as I'm able
- (Held up by a greatsword)
- But that can't hide all the pain felt
- I'm a stalwart soldier
- Kept warm by a fire
- It can burn so gentle
- (So why is it painful?)
- You can be so gentle
- When I get done fighting
- Maybe I'm a lover
- Not a soldier struggling
- You're my shield, loyal light
- A gentle warmth in the blackest night
- I'm your charge, you're my guard
- So I'll just stay right by your side
- I forget myself sometimes
- When I'm lost then you remind
- I am your sword, hold me tight
- Keep me safe right by your side
- If I'm playing with fire I'm bound to get burned
- But I know there's more than the surface
- I can learn to love you, and you'll burn to fuel me
- (There's more to the flame than the pain, come and be my blaze)
- And we'll keep to the paths you light up (Like candles to guide me)
- So much fighting before us, but the thing with fire
- There's a lot its good for, destruction and healing
- (Or forging a greatsword)
- I'm a weapon of passion
- That's held with intention
- And you are the wielder
- Of tempered emotion
- You're my moon, loyal light
- You orbit 'round and pull my tides
- I reach out towards the skies
- So I can stay right by your side
- I forget my worth sometimes
- But I was forged in love as fire
- I am your sword, hold me tight
- Keep me safe right by your side
- There's a fire aflame in my heart that'll never burn away
- Feeling and passion, the ardor of comfort and pain
- It would kill if I tried to deny or to live off of the blaze
- So I dance in-between with the pyre to forge my blade

- Thought that my pride was on the mend
- Before it shattered
- I'd like to think that I'd fix it on my own
- But that's the matter
- 'Cause I'd go and throw it all away
- To save my ego
- And the empty prize is I get to be alone
- So what do I know?
- But when I lose the way
- You keep me aiming true
- There's nothing out of view
- (Jump on through over to you!)
- You're my ally-alli, I will take you in so gladly
- Though the road's been long and winding, I'm so proud to call you family
- You're my ally, olly oxen free to take you with me
- I'm just making up the hours, how I needed you so badly
- Thought I could make it on my own, not even nearly
- But I'm scared to say that there ain't no other way
- (But now I see it all so clearly)
- I am no island, I'm a piece of something bigger
- And I work the best when your sweet heart gets to rest next to my bitter
- (Oh, it's so much better this way)
- So we keep our hands held tight
- And shoot toward the moon
- You might catch a glimpse or two
- (Break right through over to you!)
- You're my ally-alli, I will take you in so gladly
- Though the road's been long and winding, I'm so proud to call you family
- You're my ally, olly oxen free to take you with me
- I'm just making up the hours, how I needed you so badly
- You're my ally-alli, I will take you in so gladly
- I've been hopelessly awaiting what was always right beside me
- You're my ally, alleyway between the peaks and valleys
- I'm just making up the hours, how I needed you so badly
- (Jump on through over to you)
- Keep my head held high
- Green and red so bright
- Illuminate the night
- (Break right through over to you)
- You're my ally-alli, I will take you in so gladly
- I've been waiting all this time to say I needed you so badly
- You're my ally, olly oxen free to take you with me
- So it's true, there's nothing left to do
- (Jump on through over to you)
- You're my ally-alli, I will take you in so gladly
- I couldn't find myself without you, you just came along and saved me
- You're my ally, alleyway between the peaks and valleys
- I'm just making up the hours, how I needed you so badly
- You're my ally-alli, I will take you in so gladly

- Lyrics: |-
- Welcome to the fiction
- We hide here every evening
- With plenty of exuberance
- And voices for the voiceless
- But if I look out on the floor
- Is there room for anymore?
- I'm a buzzkill and a bore
- I'm not the person this is for
- But I'm tired of civil war
- My spirit is screaming out for more
- It's all just too much to ignore
- That I could be something more
- (We could be something more)
- The sprawl of the ballroom
- With the lights down low
- I know you see my eyes aglow
- My hand is extended
- To offer you a dance
- By chance, would you welcome my romance?
- And we both know, it's fantasy
- (But the feeling is real, it's real for you and me)
- The sprawl of the ballroom
- (With the lights down low)
- I'm a grease spill and a bad time
- So I look around me, see the fault lines
- Every soul here has a problem
- But when they're together, they are flawless
- But there's no pretending nothing's wrong
- They'll figure it out that I'm a fraud
- But I still try to play along
- 'Cause I just want to belong
- (Do I belong?)
- The sprawl of the ballroom
- With the lights down low
- I know you see my eyes aglow
- My hand is extended
- To offer you a dance
- Advance, my darling take a chance
- And we're no kings, you and I
- (But being together, we're royalty tonight)
- The sprawl of the ballroom
- (Hold me close)
- I'm so tired of the fiction (Who are we)
- I get so caught up in the friction (You and me)
- But it's okay to let it go (We can be so free)
- And find a comfort in the show (A thing nobody knows)
- Are you a martyr well-deserved
- Or just afraid of what doesn't hurt?
- My darling, I know it all too well
- (but we're all pretending to be ourselves)
- So maybe you're real, maybe fake
- But your life is always your own to make
- So let's enjoy it for it's own sake!
- The sprawl of the ballroom
- With the lights down low
- I know you see my eyes aglow
- It's artifice exalted, a foxtrot fantasy
- You see? Don't you worry about a thing
- And we may part in the end
- (But you can always come back around again)
- The sprawl of the ballroom
- And my hands held tight
- Alright, we'll be back another night!
- Welcome to the fiction
- We hide here every evening
- With plenty of exuberance
- And voices for the voiceless

- Lyrics: |-
- Oh, it's another day over
- And I'm left wondering what for
- I sat and stared at a paper
- And tried so hard to ignore
- The thoughts all swirling inside me
- That say I'm broken, a bore
- I lead it on with a paper
- A silent, desolate score
- I make time for you
- You make pain for free
- But I know you're my dream
- I'll take anything
- And I mean anything
- My coffee bean dream, so bittersweet
- (Oh, I want to make a mistake with you)
- Oh, seraphim schemes and self-esteem
- (Oh, so many things I should say to you)
- 'Cause oh my god I love you, but you tear me apart
- You're my savior and my devil, stab me straight through the heart
- A plasticine sheen, you're so bittersweet
- And all I want is to stay with you
- I'm another day closer
- To the end of my life
- It all gets wasted on nothing
- I watch the flickering light
- I would kneel for you
- Sat down on my knees
- You'd just hurt me more
- Hurt me 'till I bleed
- (Oh god I'm desperate to bleed)
- My coffee bean dream, it's so bittersweet
- (Oh, I want to make a mistake with you)
- A polyseme scream, such a stupid thing
- (Oh, so many things I should say to you)
- 'Cause oh my god I love you, I can't take any more
- But if I'm not creating, what the fuck am I for?
- I burst at the seams, you're so bittersweet
- (And all I want is to stay with you)
- It wasn't always like this
- I'm just resigned to the pain
- But does the fight define us
- Or does it waste us away?
- I am much more than the sum of my work
- And even without you there's so much I am worth
- But I know there's still joy to be found in a song
- My coffee bean dream, so bittersweet
- (Oh, I want to make something more with you)
- These scenes stay unseen, that's okay with me
- (Oh, so many things I will share with you)
- 'Cause oh my god I love you, but I'm more than my love
- And as long as I'm complete alone
- There's still room for us, you'll be my treat, so bittersweet
- (And all I want is to stay with you)

- Lyrics: |-
- "At the tone, please record your message. When you are finished recording, you may hang up, or press 1 for more options."
- I look across the distance
- The bits and bytes between us
- Looking at the time it'd take
- To drop everything and head that way
- I melt a hole in my phone screen
- Waiting for reply so intently
- It's hard to be present here
- When my everything is nowhere near
- Separate beings, the want to unite but
- Distance keeps us away
- Desperate pining for tactile connection
- But it leads me astray
- Take my feelings and knock on the front door
- But it keeps me away
- Send a message across all the distance
- Praying you'll find a way
- Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?
- Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true
- Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?
- Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true
- Stay with me (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- Oh, rest your weary head (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- We may feel so far away (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- But we can throw that gap away, if you'll just (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- I'll fall asleep and dream here with you
- Three thousand miles at ten and one
- A wire-crossed and tangled romance
- Some voicemail's all I'm askin' for (Are you gonna pick up? Are you there? Do you care? Do you care?)
- Separate feelings I want to unite, but
- I can't make it okay
- And I know you've tried to get closer
- But I'll still push you away (Come closer)
- Pulled away by the distance between us
- From a single mistake
- And although I've tried to get closer
- It all still keeps me awake (Come closer)
- Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?
- Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true
- Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?
- Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true
- Stay with me (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- Oh, and rest your weary head (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- We may feel so far away (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- But we can throw that gap away, if you'll just (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- Stay with me (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- Oh, it's more than just a dream (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- Though it's hard for me to say (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- I know you're not so far away, if you'll just (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- It's so hard for me to trust your heart
- That you love me even when we're apart
- But I know it's true
- How could I not believe in you?
- God, the miles are more than I can bare
- But I have to try if you'll be there
- The day I land between your arms
- Darling don't be scared, it ain't that far!
- (Hey!)
- (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- Jamie Paige (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- Oh, that's my fucking name (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
- I am real and I'm okay (Can I still be close to you? Can I still get close to you?)
- And I will live another day! (Yeah, I can still get close to you, and we can keep this feeling true)
