Night Terrors

We shared so many bottles and nights that I guess
Were just a waste of your time
Make me sober now
Please make me sober now
You disillusioned me with painful things
Chipping bit by bit
Away at our memories that meant so much to me and I thought
Something in you hadn't changed
I thought I could save us from your mistakes
Clear your eyes they're full of paper tears
That I once tried to brush away
From your pretty face that filled my hands with paper cuts
That I can't mend with you here
I left you in my past
Left you to be someone else's present
Our love played out like a symphony
Of all the shameful things
You thoughtlessly composed
Close the door and go to bed
Don’t pretend that you have never been here
Where I am
Pull the sheets over your head
Don’t pretend that you have never been here
Where I am
For the shortest moment
Did you break through the illusion of what you felt
Was what you wanted
Clear your eyes they're full of paper tears
That I once tried to brush away
from your pretty face that filled my hands with paper cuts
That I can't mend with you here
And I couldn’t help you
Close the door and go to bed
Don't pretend that you have never been here
Where I am
I'm admitting that I built my prison with my own hands
I'm done with you like you're done being yourself
I'll erase who you were for the sake of my health
We shared so many bottles and nights that I guess
Were just a waste of your time

Is your stream of thought as shallow as it seems
That you steal from deeper waters while you’re hiding in the reeds
You sing with
With such conviction
Of depression you know from pens not your own
You write in metaphor for an audience of one
I'd stab you with your words if they were sharp enough to cut
You had stolen it all but you fell beyond the breach
Of the smallest city where you reigned queen
Now you're left with nothing but the blood on your teeth
What attention did you seek pretending to be weak
Don’t believe everything that falls out of your mouth
Don’t believe everything that falls out of your mouth
Dig yourself a grave to drown in all your tears
Hoping someone will pull you out before the water chokes you out
You write in metaphor for an audience of one
I'd stab you with your words if they were sharp enough to cut
(But they’re not)
Don’t believe everything that falls out of your mouth
Don’t believe everything that falls out of your mouth

I've been drinking
You've been keeping me
In the highest of spirits that I could ever be
Well this is something that I've been meaning to say
I'm sorry for making you wait
You looked at me with those forgiving eyes
And you said hey, we all make mistakes sometimes

Here I go with my damn wishful thinking
I'll never stop drinking
I'll never get old
May I die long before I ever grow tired
Enough to be somebody else
All that I need is right here with me
And everything I want is well within my reach
So who should I blame when I just feel too helpless to move
Placing my heart on the shelf
Like some meaningless trophy
For my participation in things I don't believe in
I did it to fit in
An empty sort of wholeness I chose for myself
All that I need is right here with me
And everything I want is well within my reach
So who should I blame when I just feel too helpless to move
I need to move
Forward
I made a promise to myself
That I'd do better
Than I have done in the past
This motivation is real
I want to see how far it takes me
I’ll keep burning
Through the winds of my exhaustion
A wind that blew from a lack of trust in myself
I’ve lost all hesitation
I’ve grown to like who I am
I’ve grown to like who I am

You put yourself on a pedestal
To look down on everyone you know
And claim to love
Please know that your shallow thoughts
About an entire gender
Cannot be justified by saying you're old fashioned
You are no gentleman
Throwing dirt at the backs of all your friends
Now you've exposed yourself to them
It must be such an inconvenience
That the lies you tell
Get back to who you lied about
You can deny it all you want
You know exactly what you are
And everybody knows the real you now
They’re enlightened and unimpressed
Your tongue has crafted quite the web
To capture nothing but yourself
Farewell
(To someone I once thought was a decent person)
My eyes were clouded by trust
That you held in your palm
The same one
That grips the hands of all the girls you lead on
Then tell me they’re the bad ones
We were close for so damn long
But you burned us alive for a demon
You condemned until you craved her warmth
With perverted intent
I’m glad I lost you as a friend
You claim to be so good at talking
You brag your lies can shape their decisions
You know the tempo
The right timing
What made you proud of being insincere
You're out of key
You're out of line
Just like a metronome that's ticking out of time
A mere regret of the time I spent
Holding you up so you could stab me in the back

You showed me who I am today
And I'm grateful for the challenge
I was pacing through the quicksand
No goals and no direction
But with you the future feels like
Some sort of happy obtainable thing
You make sing
You make sing
All the praises I had once reserved for heroes viewed afar
I look up to you in ways you'll never understand
These hands were made to keep yours warm
I hope you never let them go
You're everything I know to be perfection
Promise me we'll share a name someday
Cuddled up through the coming storms
Even on the coldest of months
You'll always be my warmth
You'll always be my warmth

My decisions led to my own damn misery
Though not my intention
You'll grow from this they say
But they don't say how to change
Woah-oh woah-oh
Woah-oh
Woah-oh woah-oh
I need to have another drink
To remember not to think
Dancing with anxiety across this crooked floor
The night is running empty but I reached for something more
Can you tell me who I am
Because I'm starting to get scared
Can you just tell me who I am
Please someone
Woah-oh woah-oh
Woah
Woah-oh woah-oh
I’ve been meaning to rearrange my thoughts
But I’m still finding
The corners of myself
Fill the gaps with something else
(That doesn’t burn)
I need to have another drink
To remember not to think
About all the things I should have said and done
Waking up hungover to the hell that is the sun
Can you tell me who I am
Because I'm starting to get scared
(I get scared)
Can you just tell me who I am
Please someone
I'm gonna take everything
That I don't like in myself
I'm gonna chisel it out
I'm gonna chisel it (OUT)
I'm gonna take everything
That I don't like in myself
I'm gonna chisel it out
I'm gonna chisel it out
I'm gonna take everything
That I don't like in myself
I'm gonna chisel it out
I'm gonna chisel it out
I'm gonna take everything
That I don't like in myself
I'm gonna chisel it out
I'm gonna chisel it out

I heard you're looking for sympathy
After everything you put me through
I bet it hurts to see me happy with somebody that you knew
You reap what you sow it seems
Your roots were extracting me
While your cultivated leaves blocked out the sun
You should give it a rest now
You should give it a rest
I’m not looking in your direction
I'm so proud to say
That I am so much more
Than you had made me out to be
When you were
Breaking me away
From everyone I loved
From everyone I loved
Now that I’m gone
I hope you have to work hard
Just like you were so afraid of
Tell your new friends whatever you want
They don't even know you
Who would grant you comfort if they knew the truth
You held them prisoner too
A flicker of light in the darkest of rooms
Let them piece it together with what they know
What you gave them so
Tell me how can anything can still taste sweet
When poison is still dripping off your tongue
What else can you say with my name stuck inside your throat
I’m so proud to say
That I am so much more
Than you had made me out to be
When you were
Breaking me away
From everyone I loved
From everyone I loved
Now that I’m gone
I hope you have to work so hard
Just like you were so afraid of
Tell your new friends whatever you want
They don't even know you
They don’t even know you
Things have gotten so much better I wish you could see
Is it petty to show you me
The real me
The real me
I've grown so much since you went away
I won't play your darling anymore
Anymore
I've grown so much since you went away
I won't play your darling anymore
Anymore
(I’m so proud to say this to your face)
(Straight to your face)
I've grown so much since you went away
I won't play your darling anymore
Anymore
(I’m so proud to say this to your face)
(Straight to your face)
(Tell your new friends)
(Tell your new friends whatever you need to have them)

Cat Geography Boston, Massachusetts
Sometimes, it seems like we’ve been at this music thing for a long time. Other times, it seems like we’ve barely gotten started. Cat Geography is something new, but dear to us. Similar to reuniting with a long lost friend. At first, everyone is a bit unsure, but after a short while, the words just start to fall out of you. Everything feels right. This feels right. ... more
