Seeing the flowers, watching 'em grow
I’m going outside to dig me a hole
Some days it’s hard to find the sun
It seems like everyone is laughing at a joke
That you just ain’t in on
Some days it’s hard to move along
It seems like you woke up inside a scary place
Where everything is wrong
My flowers never grow on Mondays
I’ll wait til Tuesday comes around
Some days it’s hard to taste the sweet
It seems like everyone is dancing to and fro
But you can’t find the beat
Some days it’s hard to sing a song
It seems like even though you know the words by heart
They always come out wrong
My flowers never grow on Mondays
I’ll wait til Tuesday comes around
And if the rain may fall on Friday
My Sunday flower’s gonna drown
Flowers in springtime
Glow

Why Get Out of Bed

Why get out of bed when you could just stay there?
Why get out of bed when you could just sleep?
I don't wanna get out of bed

It's Not For Me

Ocean chill of the summer slide
It takes me back to another time
I dreamt of
When I was still alive
Hopes can kill all the fun in life
It’s crazy to laugh at the funny lies
I told myself
When I was still alive
Somewhere there’s something out there
That I can’t see
Somewhere there’s someone calling
Unfortunately, it’s not for me
Choke on pills pass the bummers by
It may seem sad, but it’s somewhat fine
I’m not here
I’m only passing by
Coping skills keep us snug inside
But I hate my lack of a lover, I
Was lonely
When I was still alive
Somewhere there’s something out there
That I can’t see
Somewhere there’s someone calling
Unfortunately, it’s not for me

Mister Brain

And when you’re feeling lonely
Mister Brain says you’re a phony
And when your friends don’t come through
Mister Brain says they don’t love you
And when the sun ain’t shining
Mister Brain says go on die then
No, there ain’t no place to hide
Oh no, you can’t run from your mind
But don’t believe his lies
And when your heart is broken
Mister Brain says all is hopeless
And when your dreams are fading
Mister Brain says you won’t make it
And when you turn the light out
Mister Brain says go on die now
No, there ain’t no place to hide
Oh no, you can’t run from your mind
But don’t believe his lies

The Drudgery
01:45

Oh, the drudgery of the everyday, wa-ooh
Ah good company, it’s the simple things that get you through
When my plans fall through
When I get the urge
To just waste away
Or do something worse
Oh, the drudgery of the everyday, wa-ooh
Ah good company, it’s the simple things that get you through

Tumblin' around
Tumblin' around
Will you catch me?
It’s not so bad
If you catch me
It’s not so bad at all
Fumblin' around
Fumblin' around
Will you lead me?
It’s not so bad
If you lead me
It’s not so bad at all
Crumblin' around
Crumblin' around
Will you keep me?
It’s not so bad
If you'll keep me
It’s not so bad at all

1000 Miles Away
03:07

If I wake up one day and you’re a thousand miles away
What would I do? And would I even want to?
And on a cloudy day if I can’t find the words to say
What would I do? Who could I turn to?
If you really love something
How could you ever let it go?
It’s hard to find something you really love
If I wake up one day and you’re a million miles away
What would I do? And would I even want to?
And if I go astray, and no one’s here to show the way
What would I do? Who could I turn to?
If you really love something
How could you ever let it go?
It’s hard to find something you really love

Let the Snail deliver the Mail
Woke up, can’t get outta bed
Kinda doubt I can, I just wanna get by
Going through another bout of pain
'Nother round of thoughts, clouding up my brain
Telling me that I’m done
All my favourite things ain’t no fun
I could be surrounded by friends
But it always feels like no one is around
One more panic attack, I frantically act
Like I ain't affected but
It’s 3 a.m. and I’m down
And no one’s around, to talk me back out
I’m festering, faking, making confessions
I’m under duress, can’t placate the stressing
Been at it so long, with no decompressing
So here go my song, it’s about depression
Let the Snail deliver the Mail
Too much ruminating
In my room, and lately
I been blue like baby
Try to soothe the aching
With some music maybe
Loop it infinitely
Til I’m finally fading
Whoever my brain tells me that I am
That’s who I believe that I am innately
I’m an alien, alienate my friends
Cancel all my plans, waiting for the end
Praying for the end, but I’m losing faith
Now I’m losing sleep, how long til I break
I am truly cursed, put it simply
It’s like the universe has it in for me, so
Hospital trips, psychiatrists
Prescriptions and a therapist
Try to hit the gym, calling up my friends
Have another crash, do it all again
Let the Snail deliver the Mail
They don't love you
They don't love you no more
