I was good under your influence Now the withdrawals, Now the withdrawals. I can smell you still in the curtains and the sheets You left nothing else for me, You left nothing else for me. Just a little bit of heaven, Just a little bit of heaven, That's all I need, Oh that's all I need... Strung out on you... You're all over me, coursing through my veins I can't rid the thought of you, You've become a part of me. I can't kick this, but after all you're just a habit Medication, self medication, Still hurts to think so let's sedate and... Just a little bit of heaven, Just a little bit of heaven, That's all I need, Oh that's all I need... Strung out on you... ...I was good under your influence Now the withdrawals, Now the withdrawals.

sea foam 05:15
I used to live in a lighthouse, But it was dark and the light had burnt out. When I would sleep the waves whispered to me, slowly Sweet reassuring nothings. Like "You belong to the sea, Come back to me." "You belong to the sea, Come back to me." And after awhile, my eyes began to feel like grains of sand Like the rocky land. And soon my limbs began to feel like the ocean's wake; The pitch and quake. "You belong to the sea, Come back to me." "You belong to the sea, Come back to me." My body it wanes, my body is drained Saltwater flows through my veins... "You belong to the sea, Come back to me." "You belong to the sea, Come back to me."

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Your eyelashes on my cheek, like feathers Everything must fall apart According to the laws of science, nature, and art Rosy noses in December dark So dark, we forget who we are But I, I should have known better We weren't on the same page, or even the same letter... But I don't love you any less Than I did before We walked out separate doors I don't love you any less Than I did then. And I don't miss you much, Or the way it was, Like you never really left Only euphoria Inside my head And your face in a frame. Our goodbyes were a little quick and cheap And I, I had never known me The way that I'm with you Your fingers filling the space between mine: Those were our little goodbyes. And your thumb, along mine, Pacing back and forth Well, for what it's worth... I don't love you any less Than I did before We walked out separate doors I don't love you any less Than I did then. And I don't miss you much, Or the way it was, Like you never really left Only euphoria Inside my head And your face in a frame.
