Watercolour – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

So crumple these paper buildings and taint watercolour skies
I guess the paint hasn’t dried yet
And nothing feels real it’s something I cannot describe
It’s just something I have dealt with
And all things come to pass, the sun is up again

In your face, I see now; a need for new lease on life
Yeah, you’re just happy to be here
If knowing’s a battle my mind cannot choose a side
So drop the things that you hold dear
You’re swearing on your life, I’ve got it all to lose this time
This morning I told you I couldn’t be there on time
Said: You sound just like your father
I’m blind past my fingers, and I’m ignoring all the signs
As my memory falters, is this all by your design
I am your son, I do not shine

You sat bedside, our smallest fingers intertwined
And you can leave it all behind
I am your son, I do not shine
My heart meets my throat as I try and bide my time
This is all by your design, I am your son I cannot shine

Object Permanence – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

I’ve got object permanence
I know exactly where you went
Too proud to prove you could pick up where I left
So you just start again

Please come back home to me
End all of my dog-whistling
You sing harmonies as my ears ring me to sleep
Oh no, it couldn’t be

Please come and shake me when I’m talking in my sleep
My dreams have been so fucked and I don’t know what it means
Where I can’t touch the bottom and you drag me by my feet
So scared of getting scared
But I know what’s underneath
Blue bеyond belief
I am your baby bird
Catching evеry other word
You breathe life into a body washed ashore
And call it love

I’d run forever if they let me
When I lose my legs
Will you put me down?
Taxidermy versions of your dogs hung on the wall

Please come and shake me when I’m talking in my sleep
My dreams have been so fucked and I don’t know what it means
Where I can’t touch the bottom and you drag me by my feet
So scared of getting scared
But I know what’s underneath
Blue beyond belief

I know what’s underneath
Blue beyond belief

You’re getting good at letting go at your own pace
I think I’ll hold on until my fingers slip away
You can’t really be as angry as that look upon your face

And on picture day
You wish you never came
Swore you’d never smile with teeth again

I’ll stare at the sky until I catch it blink
I will see the good in everything

Garamond – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

You procrastinated sleep
So you sought out to make it routine
I thought being this numb was me toughening up
You stitched the back of your corduroys

I’m withdrawn from the ways that you are
Stuck in a dream state of the art
I went with my gut and I threw it all up
So dig your thumbs into my pressure points

You’re always leaving the light on
I’m leaving before it gets bad
And if it’s what you want
Why do you look like that?
I will bend over backwards
To keep what you’ve got here intact
Who will die in my lifetime?
You’d rather pass in your sleep

I’m losing my way with words
Sentences scattered and slurred
Hope the last breath I breathe is a sigh of relief
With your past on a pedestal

Should I fall off of the face of the earth?
Or rinse with salt, just so it doesn’t hurt?
I’ve said it once, said it twice
I’ve spoiled everything nice
Shutting down summer solstice
To make a shorter schedule

You’re always leaving the light on
I’m leaving before it gets bad
And if it’s what you want
Why do you look like that?
I will bend over backwards
To keep what you’ve got here intact, intact

If I treat every thought like a stab in the back
I will write out my last words
I’ll save every wishbone you snapped
You snapped

You’re always leaving the light on
I’m leaving before it gets bad
And if it’s what you want
Why do you look like that?
I will bend over backwards
To keep what you’ve got here intact

Playing Mercy – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

Explain the paranormal
Or just tell me what you saw
You’re having dreams about the silhouettes you draw

And you’re still laying low
But you are hardly missing anything at all
It’s like the fear of missing out has met its match
When you’re what’s missing

I spent my best years playing mercy with your ghost
You’ll never beat me but you’re getting really close
And you’re crushing up my pills
I’m scared to swallow
(I slow the speed of sound, coming from your mouth)
But I always choke
And you beg to differ
I matched my breath with your breath
I do it just for fun
You’d like to think I’m counting
Each and every one
But I lost my focus

You call my name
With a tin can on a string
You can count on mе
But fuck, who’s counting?
You always said
You’d be crying if you could
I know what you meant
But I still wish you would (I still wish you would)

I spent my bеst years playing mercy with your ghost
You’ll never beat me but you’re getting really close
And you’re crushing up my pills
I’m scared to swallow
(I slow the speed of sound, coming from your mouth)
But I always choke
And you beg to differ

If I knew half the things you know
I’d never shut the fuck up, oh
You only slept right in the cold
Shoot for the sky until someone goes

I wrote it down so I’d remember
I need to write my thoughts down more
But I can barely read my own damn writing
I’ve always rathered reading yours
I’ve always rathered reading yours

Begged them to burn your body
They buried you instead
Said you couldn’t tell the difference when you’re dead

When I’m scared to swallow
Where you go, I’ll follow
I’ll follow

Theme Song – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

Your blood kept on rushing to my brain
So I didn’t stand up for a day
I’m living with no daylight to waste
But too scared of sleeping all the same

You’re not as tall as you said you were
Count to a million and lose all of your innocence
You can never be too careful
Are you still having fun without a sense of guilt in it?

You’re not as tall as you said you were
Count to a million, lose all of your innocence
You can never be too careful
Are you still having fun without a sense of guilt in it?

Muscle Memory – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

Struggling to finish the stories I tell
An extra pillow to prop me up when I’m unwell
You are always up in arms
But it just made sense to me

Was feeling sorry for myself because I can’t see clear
Find it tough to forgive when you’re so self-aware
Can you spell it out for me
Until it’s muscle memory?

You wrote off your pride
And I wrote you a letter
If you have the time
I wish you’d live forever
The cloud in your head
Is changing the weather
And how I come across
Looks better on paper
I can’t tell apart sooner from later
It’s the type of loss that can swing in your favour

You wrote off your pride
And I wrote you a letter
If you have the time
I wish you’d live forever
The cloud in your head
Is changing the weather

Depersonalized, or simply self-centered?

And how I come across
Looks better on paper
I can’t tell apart sooner from later
It’s the type of loss that can swing in your favour (your favour)

You wrote off your pride
And I wrote you a letter
If you have the time
I wish you’d live forever

You wrote off your pride
And I wrote you a letter
If you have the time
I wish you’d live forever

Safer Skin – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

Your words lingered on my lips like
Your breath when in the cold
You captured me in smoke tendrils and
Stories that you told
It’s so unlike you to bring back these memories of old
I thought to keep you safer here to some fault of my own

You are the wind in tall grass
The lighting shift in hours passed
Some bones are meant to crack
Stuck in the shadows you cast
(In the shadows you cast)
Rough around the edges from cutting every corner thin
And so I became dull to try and give you safer skin
I swore I wouldn’t feel a thing
And I swear I never did
I let myself fall out
I know that there’s a way back in
There always is
There always is

Quantity is quality when days are wearing thin
Nothing’s ever up to me
I just keep breathing in
And if you’d save a spot for me
I’d tell you everything
Anything you want to be
But never what you think (yeah)

Quantity is quality when days are wearing thin
Nothing’s ever up to me
I just keep breathing in
I just keep breathing in

Loathe – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

Running water’s cold outside this time of year
It grabs you by the throat
Some rocks and pillows float
Now slip away as I draw near
And hope your head finds home

To and fro
I’ll be silent when you go
I don’t move a muscle
But you’re breaking all my bones
My serenity is stolen
These fragile aching hands
Couldn’t count a dozen hopes
Please stand outside my window
And scare me in my sleep
‘Cause this ease is getting old
(‘Cause this ease is getting old)

To and fro
I’ll be silent when you go
I don’t move a muscle
But you’re breaking all my bones

Drained and alone
Just like everyone you know
Show me the ropes
Hang my head if you condone

My consciousness is calloused
As I try to push away
The hands that held my own

All for one has never balanced
I’ll have you know
What’s mine is yours, what’s yours is mine to loathe

Formative Age – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

I’m not concerned that you’d kill for me
But you don’t even live for me
I beg you to get out of bed

You spoke only in similes
And smiled at the symmetry
Whatever made sense in your head
You said

Don’t let me know you got home
Man, I wanna feel more alone
Don’t hold out hope
Hold your hands around my throat
Your days are numbered and you know
(You’re waxing and waning)
Torn picking between your skin and bones
(You flicker, you’re fading)
Now you’re winding me up
And I’m twirling
And dancing inside of your music box dreams
Learning to love from the men in my family
Only gets you so far it seems

Don’t let me know you got home
Man, I wanna feel more alone
Don’t hold out hope
Hold your hands around my throat
Your days are numbered and you know
(You’re waxing and waning)
Torn picking between your skin and bones
(You flicker, you’re fading)

How many times am I told
I won’t go through it alone
When there’s nothing I want more?
Here, you’ll always have a home

I think I found what I needed just as you were leaving
Guess you would’ve had to have been there to believe it, I know
If you could bring anyone, who would you bring?
Each lower-case city and bad hiding place
If you’re like this with everyone, I swear that’s okay
I’m the intrusive thought that you can’t shake away

And I’ll give you my jacket, you can call me old-fashioned, oh
I’m just an accident waiting to happen, oh no

‘Cause I’m bound to go brain dead or better, insane
And there’s no guarantee you would love me the same
Put me up on your shoulders, I’ve been standing all day
Crooked, craning my neck at a formative age

I was taught slow and steady, but I’m running on empty
You said I miss you already
Are my hands too heavy to hold?

It’s like I’m walking on eggshells inside of my brain
A minefield of memories
I’m stuck in one place

Tough Love – Arm’s Length Lyrics, Letra:

What if this all pans out like you said
And I outlive all my family and friends?

What’s up?
Well, nothing much
I’ve been losing touch the past few months
It’s all at once
Or only for a moment

You loved the smell of the smoke until it got in your clothes
I’ve got some skin that I won’t ever show
What if this all pans out like you said
And I outlive all my family and friends?
And if they don’t reach out, we’ll never speak again
Well, don’t let it get to your head
But where else would it get?

Take a picture
‘Cause it lasts longer than your brain
I’ve got a photographic mеmory
But each picture is of your face

You stoppеd believing in ghosts
Now you just haunt broken homes
I’ve got some skin that I won’t ever show
The short end of every wishbone

What if this all pans out like you said
And I outlive all my family and friends
If they don’t reach out we’ll never speak again
Well, don’t let it get to your head
But where else would it get?

What’s up?
Well, nothing much
I’ve been losing touch
The past few months
It’s all at once
Or only for a moment
(A moment)

And how the fuck
Do you show tough love?
I’m not that tough
I can’t take much
Is it just my luck?

What if this all pans out like you said
And I outlive all my family and friends
And I can’t believe I’m doing this again
When everyday is a new means to an end
I never got used to it
