Where U Are 03:02
I haven’t thought about you since the day that I left, it was yesterday so now my love I’m missing you to death. I walk along the silver stream of trailers to the end, but I can’t pick up a signal so I turn around again. And I wonder where you are, in your bedroom or in your car. Are you driving to work or just now getting off? I wonder where you are. I try to pay attention when they’re talking down to me, but it’s a vacant conversation, it won’t lead to anything. There’s nowhere left to sleep inside this haunted hotel room, there’s a shape in every mirror and they all look just like you. And I wonder where you are, in your bedroom or in your car. Are you driving to work or just now getting off? I wonder where you are. Out the window, someone else’s life. I see it every day in a hundred different ways. Out the front door, bid farewell again, it’s easier to get lost when you never know Where you are, in your bedroom or in your car. Are you driving to work or just now getting off? And I wonder where you are, in your bedroom or in your car. Are you driving to work or just now getting off? I wonder where you are.

Evaporate 02:43
I didn’t mean to say it but I did so I guess here goes nothing: I don’t look at you the same way anymore. It echoes off these walls through every room of my old house, and the windows ache from holding it all in. If you knew me then you’d understand, you have no idea who I am. I’ll disappear, evaporate, I’ll be a distant memory. You’ll bury me, I’ll suffocate. I’ll disappear, evaporate into the air and pray it goes away for good this time. I ran out of things to talk about so I’m hiding in this bathroom stall sending messages I know I shouldn’t be. I just wanna feel it one more time, that rush of blood right down my spine, but it barely gets me high anymore. It barely gets me high anymore. I’ll disappear, evaporate, I’ll be a distant memory. You’ll bury me, I’ll suffocate. I’ll disappear, evaporate into the air and pray it goes away for good this time.

I wake up at 8AM, kiss her face and worry about the day ahead. Make the bed while I’m still in it, a trick I learned from the internet, OK? Ok. Take my dose of adderall, 5mg should be enough today, because I can’t focus on anything that isn’t on my phone or a video game anymore. I don’t like being home, I feel my roots begin to grow into a ground that was never meant to be permanent for me. Permanent for me. Next to the piano bench, on Christmas day, I asked her to marry me (She said yes). We spent the whole day traveling from house to house to tell our families, and that night she asked knowingly “What does this mean for our plans of leaving for the west coast?” I said “Cassie, just one more year, then we’ll make our move away from here. I swear, I swear I swear.” I think I hope I swear. She said “I can’t stand living here, the more I do the more I fear the ground below will slowly come to be permanent for me”. Permanent for me. Should I let my heart get swallowed by this fear of giving in, or stay hidden here forever on the beach of indifference? The longer it’s in front of me the less clear it becomes. Do I want this to be permanent for me? Permanent for me. Permanent for me. I hope it’s not permanent for me. I hope it’s not permanent for me. I hope it’s not permanent for me. I hope it’s not permanent for me.
