So fill your lungs with emotion You're just a kid and you're broken Screaming that everything's unfair You search for things left in last year Watch as your life begins to fade You will grow up pretending you're are not afraid That's not enough As your skin grows hard And your heart turns numb You realize the man That you have become Now you're nothing Searching for friends and the love that you're losing Searching for something to keep you from moving backwards

No Pizza 02:44
Been feeling like the weather last year Lots of grey and anxious fear Who am I to suggest things change? I hope for sun but it always rains Been feeling like the weather last year Lots of grey and anxious fear Look around at everything the ship has sunk and so have we Who am I to suggest things change? It'll always fucking rain Why do I wake up? Fuck this existing Staring out windows that someone left open I feel the breeze as it passes through the wall Into the sheets and clothes that smell like you I'm miserable And I can't sleep In this lonely bed Sometimes it's just too much when I'm alone
3.
Drug Lord 03:42
I hate everyone that I know Then I wonder “Where did my friends go?” Fucking poor me Always suffering Everyone will let me down one way or the other One day I’ll be dead and gone maybe then we’ll get along I’m not holding my breath I die holding my breath What do I know? I know nothing
4.
See Ya Later 03:42
I left my heart at home Somewhere, I don’t know Fed it to the lions In some act of violence I’m feeling vague and I can’t seem to concentrate On things that matter most; I’m slipping into the unknown I’m no more I’m not around to hold your hand We’re strangers, I’m sorry The night turns into the day, the sun eludes me I don’t think I’m supposed to be happy here So I run away from this, from myself I drift with the wind The sound of swaying trees helps me to fall asleep. The branches stop to ask: When are you coming back? And I wake up and fucking spit in their face Just because we're rooted doesn't mean we're in place At night I drift away
5.
Good Vibes 01:52
All my sad songs have been used up they’ve had enough of my heartsick, thrown-up bullshit Em I need this
6.
Monsters 03:23
Salt stains on my shirt sleeves From when you left Poor me Our hearts Beat at the same tone for years Now they beat alone Breathe in Pretend I'm okay breath out I am not okay Move on The motions are the same Toothpaste kisses haunt my nightmares When I wake up, why aren't you there? There's a fucking hole in my chest You're gone, I'm gone, there's nothing left Feel the weeks turn into months, remember I loved you once? Who I knew has turned to dust, blown away and broke my trust I wave goodbye to that, I wave goodbye to us Salt stains on my shirt sleeves You left and I found a new me
7.
The Rapture 03:01
I found the hands I needed Last fall when I was defeated By the ghosts of my former self There's no god but I was in hell Drifting from place to place In search of somewhere safe Skinny legs and wolf eyes You are what saved my life And gave purpose to the word survive Promise we'll never sink And I will never leave To sulk on salt-stained sleeves I'm done with the old me And the monsters on the wall I've moved on from the fall Good vibes about that time But now I've made you mine I'm blowing kisses at the moon again To signify that broken hearts can mend Let's not forget the way it was back then But remember there's still safety In the term best friends Hold my hand and I'll hold yours
8.
Red River 01:43
Ask me about the man that I've become, I'll let you in on secrets I'm afraid of everything I've always said I'm not The lion's throat that ate my heart Says courage is all we got So I've kept my head high the best that I could Eric, I've given all I have to give It's your job to choose the will to live That choice is harder the older you get We've got nothing that we need to prove Because we've got nothing left to lose I trust you will be a better man Than the one the one that I pretend to be That choice is harder the older you get Ask me about how I've cried out wolf howls To moons that aren't there And I am afraid of what I've become
9.
Always leading losing battles with no meaning I'll be the one to blame When everyone I've loved forgets my name Oh, I can write it down But history decides who sticks around
10.
Dope Castle 02:12
If the sun finds its sleep in the seas to the west Then it’s there in its waves I may find my rest ’til then keep eyes turned up at the moon I’ll find my grave but not that soon I’ll call upon thee Fuck you It’s not my time, it’s not my time Fuck you The sun is bright or so it shines You didn’t mean to follow close to shed my skin to bury ghosts You trusted the one that I love the most

about

William Bonney

Born from the ashes of seminal Midwest emo bands Merchant Ships and Midwest Pen Pals, William Bonney is an angry, earnest expression of youth—a time capsule of love and loss colored by an all-consuming sense of heart. Despite their brief and volatile tenure as an active band, the songs of William Bonney persist and continue to find their way into the ears of listeners new and old, wide and far. ... more
