butterfly emerge
written by Ariel arbisser and harry nichols
Verse 1
I’ll kiss you once the liquor hits
Til then I’ll hide my smile
Babe, I’m tired of hiding shit
I’ve been feeling for awhile
I feel it coming on so strong
Cocoon on the verge
So DJ play my favorite song
Butterfly emerge
Chorus 1
I’lll spread my wings and fly away
I’ll spread my wings and fly away
Verse 2
I’m so tired of the game (so tired)
I never know to play
And I know you feel the same (you feel the same)
From everything you say
The night time always turns me on
Just like your every word
My metamorphoses is done
Butterfly emerge
Chorus 2
I spread my wings and fly away (fly away)
You can too, come join me (you can join me)
Bridge
I’m dying to let you know (I’m dying to let, I’m dying to let)
I’m dying to let it show (show me I know)
What will it take to see me
And everything we could be
The time is right to let it go
So I’ll kiss you once the liquor hits
Chorus 3 and 4
I’ll spread my wings and fly away (oh)
We’ll spread our wings and fly away (fly away)
And we’ll show everyone the way (you can show me, I can show you)
We could spread our wings and fly away (fly away)
the deep
written by Ariel arbisser and harry nichols
Verse 1
Take a catastrophe
And I’ll soak it in the summer sun
I’ll leave the wreckage underneath the sea
Oh, what it do to me
I don’t know
I don’t know
Verse 2
I’m just a kid it seems
Though I’m tearing up the moonlight
I’m just tryna get a little quiet and peace
Some getaway it’s been
It’s time to go
It’s time to go
Chorus 1
So I’m packing my bags and I’m heading outside
And I’m walking out the door
I don’t give a damn, gotta go somewhere
Can’t stand it anymore
I drown in the summertime
(drown in the summer, I-I drown in the summer)
So I’m taking my heart and I’m laying it down
And I’m sleeping in the shade
When I wake again I’m going off the deep end
To the sweet release I’ve made
I drown in the summertime
(drown in the summer, I-I drown in the summer)
Verse 3
The night came and swallowed me
I dragged my nails on my way down
It won’t forget the slow death that it gave to me
The pain is slow
The pain is slow
Verse 4
You need some apology
I know I have to pull it from the depths
Can’t find the breath I need to set you free
I’m all alone
I’m all alone (woo)
Chorus 2
So I’m packing my bags and I’m heading outside
And I’m walking out the door
I don’t give a damn, gotta go somewhere
Can’t stand it anymore
I drown in the summertime (I—--)
(drown in the summer, I-I drown in the summer)
So I’m taking my heart and I’m laying it down
And I’m sleeping in the shade
When I wake again I’m going off the deep end
To the sweet release I’ve made
I drown in the summertime
(drown in the summer, I-I drown in the summer)
Bridge
I plant my feet and turn to face it
Like a woman would
Each step I take steals more from my name
And it should (it should)
Search for meaning this must be leading me somewhere soon (somewhere soon)
The risk I took is over (it’s over)
Verse 5
Is it my destiny
Regardless how much I resist it
The darkness seems to have a way of seducing me
I can’t ignore our chemistry
The tension grows
The tension grows til
Chorus 3
So I’m packing my bags and I’m heading outside
And I’m walking out the door
I don’t give a damn, gotta go somewhere
Can’t stand it anymore
I drown in the summertime (I—--)
(drown in the summer, I-I drown in the summer)
So I’m taking my heart and I’m laying it down
And I’m sleeping in the shade (in the shade)
When i wake again I’m going off the deep end
To the sweet release I’ve made
I drown in the summertime
(drown in the summer, I-I drown in the summer)

Hey baby. It’s been so long and I just can’t stop thinking about you. Are you thinking about me too?
Verse 1
Did you see me across the way (uh huh)
I took a new road the other day
Tried to remember when you were mine
I bet you think about me all the time
Verse 2
You looked right at me with those eyes
Made me replay every single goodbye
No way you noticed my heartbeat climb
My heart froze for the millionth time

I bet you miss me in the morning
Why can't we kiss in the evening light
I know every reason
But I still wish we could melt tonight
Verse 3

Just like I feel you inside
Our sweetest memories come up at night
But every choice was justified

Our love was something that people write
They search for it their entire lives
We’re better now than we were before
We were so young and now we both can soar

Bridge
We tried our best
Wanted to make it last (I really miss you)
Held each other through the good (tell me you miss me too)

I don’t blame you
I’m hoping you don’t blame me too

freefall

Freefall
Sometimes when I fantasize

Blissful
Slipping off the summer trees
Grounded in a gentle breeze
Let’s surrender to l’appel du vide
Pre Chorus 1
I’m so sick and tired
Watching the seasons change
Watching the sun turn to rain
Got you on my mind
You are the only thing
Don’t wanna leave you behind

Breaking my fall ‘cause honestly I’m nervous
Holding me close, yeah, no one has to notice us
Waking up slowly, yeah, cause we deserve this
Yeah, we deserve it

Do you wanna let go
Float away
There’s a place I know
We could be alone
No control
Fall away
Forget all you know
Get a little space

We could be alone
Lose all control
Fall away
There’s so much to see
If we can escape

Into california sun
Could be lethal (lethal)

Pre Chorus 2
I’m not gonna cry
Watching the seasons change
Watching the sun turn to rain
Got you on my mind (got you on my mind)

rabbit hole
written by Ariel arbisser and harry nichols
Verse 1
Just a bite of you makes me small
Just a tab of you on my tongue brings me to enlightenment
Then I suddenly see it all
And I’m reminded when I was young
Just stepping in
Pre Chorus 1
And I’m on that threshold again
I see me stepping in
Chorus 1
And now I’m through the rabbit hole, baby
No hope left for safety
I left my reason on your doorstep
I’m a lost cause
Just leave me (mhmmm)
Verse 2
How do I tell you the shit I’m on?
How to articulate this dream through the fog of waking up
I need a different type of con
Cause what we’re doing is so damn strange
But I’m in - don’t call my bluff
Pre Chorus 2
And I just might get it back
If I slip right through the glass
Chorus 2
And now I’m through the rabbit hole, baby
No hope left for safety
I left my reason on your doorstep
I’m a lost cause
Just leave me (lost cause)
Bridge
This party is exciting
But I know it’s mad that I even tried to come (ooh)
Cause I am uninvited
But I wouldn't be here if you hadn’t dragged me down
It’s not that I didn’t want it
But I was strong until you got me underground (ooh)
Verse 3
Tryna figure out just how long
I’ve tried to get you out my dreams that grin it never fades
And you know I don’t belong
Once the haze lifts you’ll agree
I’ll climb back out again
Pre Chorus 3
I’m coming back from the black
I’m finding the right track
Chorus 3
And now I’m through the rabbit hole, baby
No hope left for safety
I left my reason on your doorstep
I’m a lost cause
Just leave me

I guess at the end of the day
I like a little poison flowing in my veins

I guess I could write you to tell
There’s nothing of your lover hiding in this shell
Down here at the bottom of this well
You’re gonna find bloodshed

So lock this wicked heart away
Come again at break of day
Don’t you listen to what I say
It’s all just little games I play

I wanna see some bloodshed on your skin
I wanna see your pretty, pretty face darkened with sin
I wanna see some bloodshed when it rains
And pray the devil when I die, my soul to take
My soul to take
My soul to take
My soul to take
My soul to take

I guess this brings out the side
Of something that’s been growing slowly through the night
I’m tired of this moralistic fight
I wanna see bloodshed

So lock me up inside this cell (lock me up inside this cell)
Damn me down to darkest hell (damn me down to darkest hell)
Don’t you hear the tales I tell (don’t you hear the tales I tell)
