i hate this i just want you

Wasp Parts 02:10
i thought by now the problem would be over but it still plays through in my head i know you wish i was dead but that feeling is mutual everything's broken now everything's stolen now they're living through everything you motherfuckers joked about and i wish you would focus on the problem instead of the distraction who knows if that'll happen? do you realize what's at stake here? i won't just lay and wait here i thought by now everything would be fixed but it wasn't that long ago you won't ever know just how hard they had to fight
3.
i'm sorry my body is breaking i wish i could help but i really need saving i know it's a lot for me to ask of you but lately it feels like i'm dying i wish i was happy without even trying i feel so alive whenever i'm with you you can only get so far eating yrself until you reach the stomach then it ends up on the floor i don't wanna be here anymore i'm sorry you had to see me like this but i can't fix myself it won't disappear til i throw it away you can only get so far breaking her heart til you realize you love her then what was all of this for? so many feelings are going ignored
4.
Sickly Sweet 02:55
are those white roses in yr trash? i thought you knew me better than that i can't help but feel it's my fault that you really don't know me at all i hate treating you so sickly sweet just to get yr attention, i need it i know it's unrequited so i'll just stay quiet force myself to fight it surprised if i die torture every body part is out of order i'm wondering if it's enough to kill me and if it isn't now, just know it will be you tried to calm me down you kicked me out i hate treating you so sickly sweet i cannot be yr heaven and how could you think this? i have so many reasons now to turn it off for good
5.
i almost hope we never meet again i could've gone my whole life without knowing that and now i think i should've stood up for myself that time i never really felt comfortable around you and now i realize it doesn't matter how well they treated you afterwards you'd do anything to distract yrself from me even though i love you i'm still so afraid she doesn't love you
6.
7.
1500 needles tearing in and out of me but it doesn't feel wrong at all you couldn't fix this if you tried i'm just waiting for them to eat me i don't wanna be beside you any more than you wanna get help i know there are things inside you but i need to think of myself and there isn't much sense in the lies that you spew with far too much ease while i lay there so tense with rigor mortis set in your eyes continue to pierce the heart i laid bare, and my skeleton spread thin the stamp of your shoes still stains through the floor to remind me each day that I never really got to choose grinding up into pieces so small you can't tell what it used to be if yr so afraid of everything then what's the point of dragging in me? i'm not gonna try to fight you you think i know every part of yrself you know that i wanna die to no, i can't take care of yr health i loathe all that i am when i feel your embrace it drives me to death like sinking down through the dam scars run deep through our blood burning with a fiery anger and you're too scared to run so i struggle through flood i wish you didn't eat my brain
8.
i don't feel bad for what i said at all it was true begging please don't go when i'd already known i'll die before i'm ever proud of myself but i'm too uncomfortable to try and be somebody else i just spend all my time wishing i was alive when i know for a fact that i'm dying i love the way you draw i love yr poetry i wanna take it all but you would know it's me this is the first and the last time we talk about the fact that i need my own warmth i tried to be the bigger person now look at me i tried to be a better person now look at me i wanna eat it raw i wanna sink my teeth i wanna tear it off i wanna feel relief
9.
i don't care, yr still beautiful yr still my favorite person i would sing i would bleed i'd do anything for you just to prove that i love you writing love letters of how we'll get married one day but i hope it doesn't scare you so please don't run away i don't know what i am doing, like at all, but i love you

Sunsets 01:33
if only you held me like you do in my dreams touching my hand i just wish these feelings were a little easier to understand but i can't i can't win this battle i won't win this battle i'm done, i can't take this shit (but how could you stand so still?) i don't wanna have to go and see you i wish someone would come take me away from you i will be the one that has to keep myself away from you sunsets are so blue whenever i'm without you it makes me wish i was dying but when i die it will be made into a punchline so i hope you won't just waste my time
11.
Drumfuck 00:13
12.
how can you try to hold my hand and then call me a faggot? i never did a single thing to you you hate yrself so you took it out on me you don't fucking stand for anything you are a pussy i hope you die
13.
Zinnia Baby 02:29
wouldn't it be peculiar if the very instant you start talking they don't exist? watching time go you'll never get back you didn't know that it makes me ache when you hold me and i just wish i told you how would i know that you would toy with me? are you bored of me? you can't put my stem back in the water isn't it convenient you only claim that i saved you when i'm here then you might go talk shit behind my back what's the point of that? like you didn't know that i am really trying but what does it matter if yr still mad at me? because i know that i'm not who i used to be and you know it as well
14.
i just wanted to feel comfortable in this wretched body it won't be like last time i'll make sure of it am i a bitter empty hole for you to fill back up with all the things that you don't want? then you just sew me up 'cause you made me feel so horrible like i have nobody you throw me to the ground you try to kick me while i'm down there won't be a next time you just murdered it i just wanted to be one with you i couldn't take all this pain that it came with
15.
this was so avoidable whether you believe it or not you could do whatever you wanted without getting caught (i saw some things i'd rather not) i feel so ill and i'm afraid of everything i just don't know all i can do is fucking scream and it gets so hard i've seen the worst of everything that's how i accidentally learned that this whole world is fucking mean what the fuck do i mean? and what the fuck do i bring that hasn't been already incorporated in the scene? it's not enough to wanna be another part of it i try so hard but i'm still not satisfied i'd like to be everything i wanted but who knows if i have it in me?
16.
i think i found the perfect place to bash my head in i should've never gone and listened to you now i'm floating with my face into the water but i'm not cold i feel so warm i feel so calm i won't grow old this is the first time i ever took time to help myself feel better this was the worst crime but i had a good time putting it all to an end oh dear god i can't be helped drowning in my blood can't stop hating myself i see everybody i ever knew look down at my body with disgust and resentment
17.
they finally closed yr eyes that's when i realized that you were really gone and we can't have you back i lost the only one who ever had my back and i found that it wasn't anyones fault those dreams were just too intense i hate myself this isn't fair i'm so alone i'm fucking scared i hate myself this isn't fair yr on yr own, trippy the bear
18.
my t-shirt yr necklace why can't we just end this we're dumb and we're reckless i'll never forget who you are how many times can you prove me right? that's not the way that you fix yr life i'm really trying but i'm still not getting anywhere i started crying but it wasn't cause you weren't there i'll just take this and go i can't remember anything amnesiac
19.
Robin 08:59
i would fantasize of looking like them all those other guys i'd never fit in i'm uncomfortable but i'm getting there it's intolerable ripping out my hair you laughed when i told you my truth so why should i care what happens to you? i think i'm starting to realize what this is about we are made of so many things so what do you care what i want to be? you could use me for so many things i just wanna be useful to me you could make me into so many things i just wanna feel beautiful please you drown when the water's not clear (and no one helps you) you hide and you quiver in fear (where no one finds you) pretend that there's no one else here an evil voice that rings in yr ears i know you think that yr someone who knows my body and my mind i never want you to hold onto that image of me does it hurt to see the version of me that i want? well, i don't care i've been so confused for far too long it took so much to find exactly what was wrong it's time to take back feelings i've had all along but i won't die we've been here longer than you have bitch i won't die i hope it hurts when you pass on you never deserved any comfort

about

this is pretty much the album i've always wanted to make. since around 2019 i've had the idea of an album that would encapsulate all of the different styles of music that inspire me, and this is that album. it's been in the works since june 2021 and i'm so excited to finally share these songs with you all. i hope yr just as enthusiastic about these ideas as i am :))
