Baciami (Demo)

brass pipes screaming drones consumed with dread
with every little detail adding up to the end
throwing my own words back like they’re some revelation
finally spilling the truth and laying it all down at the organ
i never wanted to be some drunk girl crying off her head
a broken basket washed up on the riverbank of your bed
like a child, soul and body, lightness and weight
baciami
the circus vibe funeral dirge bringing us down
with wildflowers fading in the golden hour
my bones are too broke to go through all this again
i'm crawling out of my skin and leaving my body at the organ
and now i'm running my mouth while you stare deadeyed at the wall
but if you'd just said the word i'd come back for more and more
and more and more and more
say it with your whole chest, baciami
when you're ready, baciami
just fucking kiss me
heavy distant silence filling up the car
cause you know i want more than just a fuck in the dark
give me some kind of clue that you even care
a wordless drive to the airport, screaming bright eyes like a prayer
but just because i want you doesn't mean i'll wait around
if there's one thing you taught me it's turning off and checking out
say it with your whole chest, baciami
when you're ready, baciami
just fucking kiss me
i still hope you find a little bit of everything you need
and when you know out what that is i'll still be me
leave it at the organ leave it at the organ leave it at the organ
leave it at the organ leave it at the organ
leave it at the organ leave it at the organ leave it at the organ

i give you everything and you beg for more
you're always sticking around for the encore
but i don't want you around babe, i don't want you around
you want a girl who you never have to see
i want a love that changes me
i don't want you around babe, i don't want you around
but i don't want you around babe, i don't want you around
waking up alone bracing for the come down
digging through the wreckage of last night's breakdown
betting on futures i know aren't real
if there's a chance let's take it
if it's a mistake then let's make it
i hate how good you make me feel
i give you everything and you beg for more
you're always sticking around for the encore
but i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
you want a girl who you never have to see
and i want a love that changes me
but i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
we can keep our heads down like we always do
but i can't be the girl that you need me to
the best you ever seen, the best is yet to come
if you're gonna finally let me in
you better take me as i really am
the best you ever been, the best is yet to come
you tell me that you need me to get by
but when i'm in your bed you meet my eyes
i know it's not me but it feels like shit
cheap words written on water
and i'm the best i have to offer
but even when i feel worthless i know i'm worth this
we can keep our heads down like we always do
but i can't be the girl that you need me to
the best you ever seen, the best is yet to come
if you're gonna finally let me in
you better take me as i really am
the best you ever been, the best is yet to come
dolled up worrying dressed in blue
dance to sad songs in the living room
leaving all of the hard stuff to someone else
the shadow guiding me through the dark
comparing the fire in our charts
and letting the future worry about itself
i give you everything and you beg for more
you're always sticking around for the encore
but i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
you want a girl who you never have to see
i want a love that changes me
but i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
i don't want you around babe i don't want you

Rose Quartz (Demo)

jet planes going the opposite way
contrails cut the sky, the only trace you left in your wake
get high, just killing some time
the ceiling softens and fades, a steady stream to get through the night
can't let you down if you take nothing from me
i know i'll never be the girl you need
now all that's left is a town split in two
and a cut quartz reminder to love myself as much as you do
it came to me in a dream waking up from surgery
i'm only really as alone as i want to be
from the waterfall to the curtain call, all in all it's been worth it
it's no one's fault but i'm giving up
cause now i know i can't love you enough for the both of us
in your arms i took my armor off
turned my volume up, believed i was enough
but just because we were happy once
don't mean we should get stuck in a life spent wondering
i hope you find someone who can love you better
i know i'm loved cause i feel loved

all the way
slipped through the early day
cemetery’s drowned in morning dew
near the churches draped with ferns
that want to see me burn
i felt the future buried below my shoes
i never thought to second guess
the plans i made at somebody's behest
a game of chicken to keep my arrow true
i always have to make amends
when i stray from the perfect end
now i don’t know where i’m going
but i won't get there by waiting around for you
there's no way
the mystery can remain
digging through dumpsters, sifting for a clue
you’ve got a voice that i adore
and i’ve seen that face before
my knees are shaking and restless waiting for you
but, can't bring myself to send the text
cause i only pass on the internet
a careful angle to keep my smile in view
i always seem to make a mess
every time i drunk confess
how your hand keeps me steady
while the world spins underneath you
don't know what to expect
when you hold my eyes with that rough caress
smoke in the sky, electric bleeding hue
don't mean to be a hypocrite, but
let’s maybe slow it down a bit
let the current flow through and over you
pulling us into that deep, deep blue
