it wasn't hard at the start of all of this to imagine that things would change
but now that i'm here, i'm not worried anymore
it all just washes over me
i am filled with
bliss
and selflessness, all coalescing into a lovely and unsuspecting
mist
it's never been this clear to me, ah

how much
how loud
how hard
do you think
do you think i'm real yet?
how much do i need to bare my soul to you?
how loud do i need to scream my songs for you?
how hard do i have to let you fuck me?
just to think that i'm real

i wash my hands
it won't come off
wash my hands
it won't come off
it's hard to wake up on days like this
with a bullet to bite and my head on backwards
i wash my hands but it wont come off
my skin is hanging on to my bones
why can't you just tell me your intentions
it's hard enough as it is
the ridges of your soul collapsing inward
i wash my hands but it wont come off
my skin is hanging on to my bones

are you here at all?
will you stick around and watch it fall on you?
did you think you could just use me like a tool of yours?
well maybe you're right and maybe i am
just another fucking tool of yours
and maybe you're right, but maybe i am
just another human too, you know
|
||||
5. |
||||
|
is there anything worse than this?
i don't think so
if i could go back in time i would
if there's any hope for me left here, i'll find it
if there's any reason left for me to be
you've been treading water all the while
you'll miss everything with your eyes glued shut!

the grinning smiler

for the life of me
it's your face i really need to see
i won't forget that look you gave was straight up mean
i am getting overwhelmed, i turn away it's hard to tell
i hide behind the jackets you bought winter last year
i'm piercing your floorboards and slinking away
you don't have any clue just how much i love your face
can't i just keep staring don't make me leave
oh no it's so cruel, oh well i
really can't complain despite having so many regrets
i'm so god damn happy
i'm grinning as i watch from afar
smile so big i don't care if i get noticed
i will listen to your breathing
feel it on my own skin
ah, it's not fair, it's not fair,
but i can't stop smiling it just hurts
what i want? it's hard to say
but you'll see soon what i have in store
ah, my heart's racing after all these years
come here, you
this is what i have been waiting for
since you first moved in three years ago
but if i'm being honest, i kinda thought this would never really happen
but wow, look, here we are
hey come back here
why are you running from me
oh my god, this is so much fun
i just sank my teeth into your neck
ah!
grinning as i bite down hard
i smile so big i don't care if i get noticed
i will listen to your choking
your blood on my own skin
ah, i'm so glad i'm so relieved
my dreams came true and i could just die
you lie on the floor
in this flowing gentle scarlet mirror
ah
ah
ah

|
shotguns and wedding rings
two things i've never seen
as we lie here
your skin lullabies me
your electric hum
my radiosity
enough is enough
you slam me up against the wall of your room
|
||||
8. |
just words
01:22
|
|||
|
i don't believe a word you say to me
my friends, they seem so far away
in the end it's just words
in the end we're all just
dust
just dust
your friend
i'll be, oh
|
||||
9. |
||||
|
that rock formation, a scattered memory
i can't believe that this light ever touched me
after diffusing and bouncing around the lens
what's left and what is to come still curious questions
assuming the worst and stacking expectations higher, and higher, yeah!
waiting for them all to come crashing down
i know you've been holding it all in since you were just a kid
but you don't have to worry about me
|
||||

(en)raptured
02:21
|
|||
|
measured footsteps escaping from where i slept
as you make your exit, floating angel on the carpet
we won't ever be like this again
but it will live in the background
toxic radiation
your awkward glances, half committed gestures
as if you can't decide which emotion to confide in
we won't ever be like that again
but there are things that are more real
we will be just fine

while i'm still here
02:26
|

painful memories of people who have long forgotten me
i've said some awful things
regret you know it stings
but you say that i'm so sweet, oh
i'm finding this so hard to believe
'cause it's really so easy
so let's stay together while i'm still here
i don't want your pity, forgiveness, or your anything
'cause really i'm not so innocent
i'm really not so innocent
but you say that i'm so sweet
and i'm finding this so hard to believe
cause it's really so easy
so let's stay together while i'm still here

why are you always trying to find a reason why you're wrong?
don't you know that i know that i'd say something?
i don't understand why everything happens for a reason in your mind
sometimes things can happen off-screen

To See the Next Part of the Dream
by Parannoul
supported by 14 fans who also own “meaningless off-screen death”
Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too.
