i opened up my window for the first time since you left i had to fill the air with something other than your smell i love you so much baby won't you please come back so we can lay in my bed while i help you unpack you smell like home and i hope you know your arms feel like it too
2.
i always sleep on the side of my bed because i imagine you being right next to me.
3.
do you remember that day at the train tracks? you smoked cigarettes while i took photographs we threw rocks in the woods and walked around your neighborhood we laid under your fairy lights and kissed for a while oh fuck wait, i think its time for me to go
4.
today i found a video of you singing one that you told me about when we first met it was nice getting to hear your voice for the first time since the day i wish i could forget i'm sorry we didn't talk a lot before everything happened i miss you we all do my legs are getting weak thinking of the moment i found out you were up above one year is getting close one year is getting close and i really hope i see your ghost the most
5.
all my friends hate themselves they don't say why to anyone else but they do it in the journals on their bookshelves we're both happy and sad at the same time we have way too many mountains to climb people always complain about how much we whine we lie and talk about how we're fine all my friends hate themselves they don't say why to anyone else but they do it in the journals on their bookshelves
6.
i write too many songs about you but thats okay i just need something to write about like your shitty tattoos songs about how you still have my shirt about your breathe smelling like cigarettes and how much you hurt that time you kissed that one guy and then you told me goodbye but thats okay i just need something to write about while i lay in my bed and sigh

lake james 01:33
you're in the cabin i'm by the fire i'm alone and you're not i punched an oak tree my knuckles are bleeding you did not, yours are not
8.
love marks 01:07
you left your love marks on my chest i left mine in your heart i still find your hair ties in my room i dont know what to do with them i'd mail them back but i need to know you were here
9.
we walked through the woods holding hands i dont see it as a misunderstand-ing while the blue birds sing their sweet tune just for you i know that you love me too the leaves are falling everywhere so we dance until we fall into the pile waiting for us this is love and i'm glad you i can trust
10.
i stared out the window while i laid in my bed and you slept, it was artistic in a way we woke up and listened to the 1975 until we had to shower hey kat, thank you for hanging out with us today we stopped by your house and played with your cat and all my friends stopped by tonight and we all went to dennys we all laughed at our table until we had to leave thank you guys for not giving up, for staying alive through this whole life, i know its hard but it will be worth it
11.
i had a dream, or a nightmare, that you left me and i was all alone again. i mentioned in one poem i tried to kill myself back in october and i feel like that will come true i dont know when you've killed me and you don't even care i hope you're enjoying your love free warfare because i'm doing whatever i can to get you to stop breathing my air
12.
when it gets cold in my house and i’m grabbing the blanket to warm myself i’m reminded of you. i’m reminded of our passionate kisses under the blanket and in general. when i let myself fall victim to the cold i’m reminded of when it snowed when you were here and we knew we would get sick but didn't care because we knew we could heal each other. i’m reminded of the breathless inhales from after our snowball fight and the crack in my voice yelling i love you and i’m sorry for hitting you with a snowball. i really am. i made a snow angel for you. but it doesn't compare to how much of angel you really are.
13.
you cut your hair shoulder length i guess this is a small step in starting over again i wish we could start over again go back to the days when we were happy all the time i can see your title fight shirt from the car window back when your hair was below your shoulders before we wanted to start over
14.
from the plane window where you sat i wonder what you felt as you flew over the blue ridge mountains in the dark morning sky while i sat in the back of my best friends car and stared out the window i wonder why i let myself get so down but i realize very quickly youre not here and my arms are empty

about

this album is about most of my personal life during my high school years. it's about my girlfriend, my best friends, the death of one of my best friends, my ex-girlfriend, and everything i was always afraid to talk about out loud. find comfort in these songs. relate to them if you can.

thank you: ashley, baylee, bethany, kat, lucas, skyler, aly, madison, savanna, zack, brandon, and many more, i hope you know who you are. also to anyone who came to my shows, anyone who bought or downloaded something, anyone who streamed tnwf on spotify, and most of all thank you for listening and supporting !
