Fuzzy 04:19
For the first time I can see a little bit ahead Less flying straight into the sun on the weekends So I'll plan to see you in a month Feels less fuzzy to think about Tunnel vision my way out of winter Go to school, pay the rent, lots of vegetables in my dinner Think my way out of settling that score With myself, about climbing over the mountain Once in a while I've been feeling pretty bad lately But you come to keep me company Lift my thoughts off the ground when they're scuffing I've been feeling pretty sad lately But you make a point of checking on me And I'm so glad to have a friend like you Solace in the sea on the shittest day of winter Anticipating the spring when the sun shines a little better Feel my heart beat out of time with itself But they said it's fine, get back to worrying about something else There's always something else

DIY 03:36
Treacle dripping from your lips, Unstick myself to sit under the moon Do my best not to loathe you You're chewing up your messages Before you spit them out How do I unscramble you Bad brain bad feelings again And you'd win, unknowingly I welcome you in Bad brain, bad feelings again You win, unknowingly I let you in I have to teach myself how to love you Without the safe places my friends grew Bad brain bad feelings again And you'd win, unknowingly I welcome you in Bad brain, bad feelings again You win, unknowingly I let you in

Banger 03:59
Grumbling beneath my feet Slowly suffocating in your speech I hope you'll change your mind Watchful and ever present I find this quite intense I hope you'll change your mind So you're not going anywhere, I can't say the same Unclench your jaw, secondary in-between state I tried to write with you in mind but something stopped me every time I have something to convince you of I've tried to let it slide but you're taking up so much of my time You have to know I can't put this on Dictated by the weather I'm questioning over and over Your timing is a mess Put this behind and start over So you're not going anywhere So you're not going anywhere I tried to write with you in mind but something stopped me every time I have something to convince you of I've tried to let it slide but you're taking up so much of my time You have to know I can't put this on You have to know I can't put this on You have to know I can't put this on

Linear 03:17
Soft sunburn on my skin This is the first place that really feels like home In this new kind of mind I'm sure it's fine to be uneasy But it doesn't feel like it yet Collecting dresses in the suburbs I linger on the prettiest views Do my best to take them in with you Before I go back to the blue room Cabin fever up our noses, we all laugh at it So I've just moved in And lived a little less safely than I have in the past It feels nicer to not worry as much And I'm not talking about walking in the dark I have a less heavy heart This is not a linear path This is not a linear path This is not a linear path Doubles back whenever I get so far

Matairangi 03:55
You've got something to tell me, so I think you should get on with it I won't cry about you for months Without a good reason You keeping showing me new parts of you I could map all of your tattoos Arm in arm, I walk you home Just to go to bed on another road Another mountain I keep hoping you'll come round to it My friends talk me into things They have the best intentions And so do you But when you leave, I'm still wondering Why I walk up big hills in the rain Your hands on my knees again What is it that you've got to say Matairangi stares back sometimes When I've got you on my mind
