Okay I’ll admit I’m the type of girl to do
Everything that you told her not to
As soon as I’m no longer underneath you
Because I never should have been
I will never be that small again
‘Cause my voice was just a whisper then
To be quiet was never my intent
‘Cause I never should have been
Your mouth sprayed me specs of blue
I won’t be painted like you
I’ll shed all of my skin right to the bone
To invest in myself to heal and grow
To be someone you’ve never touched before
And someone you’ll never reach
I’ll eat my own lips and peel and pick
And paint myself crimson lick by lick
to be someone you’ve never kissed before
And be someone you’ll never know
Your mouth sprayed me specs of blue
I won’t be painted like you
Your mouth sprayed me specs of blue
I won’t be painted like you

I’ve grown so much this year
My hairs grown 6 inches
I’m no longer scared to be in bed
with someone else in it
Learnt to accept myself
But struggle to see
how I will ever be
enough for someone else
‘Cause even if I’m just a bore
will you stay with me for a while?
I’m not the type you’ll stay for
But I’ll go blind like the last time
Because I’ve never seen real love
staring back into my eyes
preferred feeling broken
To being driven crazy
Craving love
That was never made for me
‘Cause even if I’m just a bore
will you stay with me for a while?
I’m not the type you’ll stay for
But I’ll go blind like the last time
Because I’ve never seen real love
staring back into my eyes
I miss driving late at night and sleeping on the passenger side, what’s missing in me
'cause the love fades into a lie like the fading candlelight, but ill pretend its here
Even if I’m just a bore
But will you stay with me for a while?
Lend your love a little more
I’ll go blind like the last time
Even if I’m just a bore
will you stay with me for a while?
I’m not the type that you’ll stay for
But I’ll go blind like the last time
Because I’ve never seen real love
staring back into my eyes

you’re driving so damn fast
And you’re not sure where to
The roof’s down you’re staring at the sky
Watching the clouds move
If I could reach the clouds I would
Ride them homebound
I’d climb the trees but I’m out of practice
Plummet to the ground
But I won’t talk to you
As much as I want to
Cause I’d only get breathless
And give in too soon
But I prefer my skin when it smells of you
And its so frustrating that I can’t remove
You from my frontal lobe
but latching on is like self induced vertigo
Sometimes I’m too much of a dreamer
For my own good
every time the haze clears yeah
You cloud my world
But I won’t talk to you
As much as I want to
I’d only get breathless
And give in too soon
But I prefer my skin when it smells of you
And its so frustrating that I can’t remove
You from my frontal lobe
how can I
be touch starved
and touch repulsed
all at once
And why am I admitting that
in a song
But I prefer my skin when it smells of you
And its so frustrating that I can’t remove
You from my frontal lobe
but latching on is like self induced vertigo

I saw you watching the show, your attention never strays
and showbiz says everyone disappears when you’re on stage
But all I saw was your gaze
and my mind sees newspaper bouquets
Fold by fold,
Fold by fold,
I stayed up all night,
couldn’t get the folds right,
origami flowers
Gentle scratches
and ink patches,
origami flowers
Origami
You said: ”last night, I thought we were going to kiss”
So why the fuck didn’t you say you felt like this
I want your pretty name stained inside my lips
I want your pretty smile pressed against my hips
Fold by fold,
Fold by fold,
I stayed up all night,
couldn’t get the folds right,
origami flowers
Gentle scratches
and ink patches,
origami flowers
Origami
I kept a set list from April,
Drew out your tattoos by memory,
but then the ink spilled,
turning white into ebony
I stayed up all night,
couldn’t get the folds right,
origami flowers
Gentle scratches
and ink patches,
origami flowers
In the garden
petals harden,
origami flowers
colours fade
into pale shades
origami flowers
Origami
Origami

Slip away for a little while, ah
New found anxiety in only what I can see
Being alone is a dangerous act, yeah
The only way I can deal is finding new ways to feel
Wonder why I’m never at home
Tryna stay in a good zone
Distractions are all that I know
So I gotta keep on the go
Am I running out of steam or am I running out of time
My balance is off and I’m falling off the side
I’m still on course but I’m starting to derail
I keep on pushing ‘cause I’m not about to fail
oooh
Whisps of Smoke blow into my eyes, ah
Scent of Vanilla under darkened skies
Such a resent in the dead of night, ah
And in the cold, all our tears crystallise
Wonder why I’m never at home
Tryna stay in a good zone
Distractions are all that I know
So I gotta keep on the go
Am I running out of steam or am I running out of time
My balance is off and I’m falling off the side
I’m still on course but I’m starting to derail
I keep on pushing ‘cause I’m not about to fail
oooh

No more hiding behind restoration glass,
Been looking through these blackout panes where time would never pass.
The windows are all broken, and thoughts that were out of reach
Run to me, and growth exudes my bones.
I begun to look at the skies, charmed by the gleams
But stardust fell in my eyes, now I’m blinded with these dreams.
Change sprung up all around me,
Never needed someone to ground me
just hope the pressure wont drown me.
Never been scared of expectations,
Working on the art of embracement,
Still undergrown
Been craving simplicity due to my stupidity,
Not realising what I would lose.
A lack of experience and an excess of worry,
Could my brain be wrong?
I begun to look at the skies, charmed by the gleams
But stardust fell in my eyes, now I’m blinded with these dreams.
Change sprung up all around me,
Never needed someone to ground me
just hope the pressure wont drown me.
Never been scared of expectations,
Working on the art of embracement,
Still undergrown
I have lost my hiding place
And I’m basking in the sun now,
Soaking in the brightest rays
And they urge for me to grow now.
I have lost my hiding place
And I’m basking in the sun now,
Soaking in the brightest rays
And they urge for me to grow now.
Change sprung up all around me,
Never needed someone to ground me
just hope the pressure wont drown me.
Never been so scared of expectations,
Working on the art of embracement,
Still undergrown

Soaking in your history
i climbed that hill every Sunday
cutting my knee on the thorns
dripping like crushed raspberry
picked just before this fall
soak the wound in salt
wound in salt
Bathed In salt
Bathed in salt
Soaking in your history
Revel in the infancy
we climb that hill again today
but the brambles have withdrawn
the skies call in the cavalry
swollen clouds begin assault
we surrender it all
succumb to all
succumb to all
succumb to all
Soaking in your history
Revel in the infancy
Soaking in your history
Revel in the infancy
