GHD 04:12
lyrics: it's 9am and the sun won't shine i barely notice while i smoke my mind another day just like the last looking forward is just like looking back wandering from empty room to empty room leaving lights on, turning up the news clenching teeth and grasping hands in disbelief and still refusing to accept defeat i guess it's six more weeks of snow cause i see shadows everywhere i go

one day a man was walking in the woods when he heard something crying. he walked toward the sound and found a small deer whose foot was caught in a metal trap. the man knew what he had to do. he approached the deer, muttering "please don't kick me" in feigned hope. "i won't," the deer replied, much to the man's surprise. "You can understand me?" the man said in disbelief. "please let me out," the deer pleaded with the man. "Right, sorry," said the man. as he wedged the trap open, he said to the deer "i can't believe we can communicate. this is absolutely incredible." he looked up to the deer who he had just freed but the deer was running deeper into the woods

Out 03:33
lyrics: i don't know whose blood this is but i don't think it's mine couldn't say whose thoughts these are but i have them all the time someone else has been in here i don't think i'm alone the smell of blood is in the air and i don't know if it's my own i don't know who's been in here but there's one way to find out i don't know what happened here or when i fell asleep i couldn't say the time of day or what day of the week have i eaten recently? why do i feel weak? my memory's kind of hazy now but something seems unclean i don't know whose blood's in here guess i should get it out i don't know whose blood's in here guess i should let it out
