Spun 00:57
Take it apart again Only you can erase my mistakes Break it to me again Only you can reduce my duration Betting against the odds Hoping fate somehow falls in my favour Maybe one of these days Close my eyes Await my destination
2.
Everything you knew has changed Nothing ever feels the same Though it's clear as day Remnants of the past still stay Will she, won't she Tell me I'm fine, yeah Fine, yeah Hear the whispering awhile Find it best to nod and smile Even if it feels contrived Just be glad that you survived Will she, won't she Tell me I'm fine, yeah Fine, yeah It was nice to see you again Have a wonderful time It was nice to see you again It was nice to see you It was nice to see you again Have a wonderful time It was nice to see you again So nice to see you Hold me, hold me Oh No it's not the same But I can't complain
3.
I can feel I can I can't take your help Help

I wanted something I can not believe was not working for me This silence finds me Takes me to the winds I hear serenity If I could find you I would be Just like I used to be When I felt complete And nothing was abysmal

Away 03:40
Under the stars Under the trees Dreaming of you Dreaming of me I could not find Anyone else So I descend Into myself The other side In hopes to find My love My dream My life No one could take All that I'd need All that I'd want And all that I'd dreamed Away Away Away Away From me From me From me Hold to the mast Pull up your anchorage Rise up your flag And sail away Away with me My love My dream My life I'm lost in your eyes In love with your soul Tell me you're here And you'll never go Away Just stay With me In love In dream In song
7.
I fell so hard Hoping maybe we'd get together Swore I'd never fall for you But it was all that I could do I know that I can be intense And sometimes sentimental, too I needed someone to believe I thought that I could try for you You've gotta believe me Well, you kinda deceived me, yeah You told me that I was something new And that I was special to you But I'm not so special anymore No, I'm not special Here I am Though I swore you'd never cross my mind again I believe you'll come around Maybe someday Someday Oh, I still dream You'll tell me that you love me I can't sleep Without your picture in my head And don't you tell me to lighten up Or to take it up with God When you were the answer to my prayers all along And now you're gone this feels so strange All the vacancy and pain You made me love my life And hate it all the same
8.
Into the Sky 02:58
You've been waiting in the dark for light to pour in gracefully When it hits you, it will miss you Now you're left alone I cannot begin to fathom all the world's atrocities First it hits me, then it hurts me We can leave it all behind It's twice as cold We're going home All in vain, it's not the same anymore How can you expect a change so long as we are safe inside Open up and drift away We'll find the place where hope resides Take your special things But leave your friends, if you would be so kind I'm so tired I just want to leave this fucking world behind Another change I'll never change Into the sky We will find new life Out of here Into the sky
9.
No place to go to No one knows you It's all just smoke and broken mirrors Strangers hate you The world betrays you And now you're left alone in here My hatred and shortcomings subside When I saw you for the first time I could have died Some things fall to pieces With the tighter you're holding on Like you turn around and then it's gone Nothing lasts forever But that would have been nice to know Cause it's just so hard to let you go You wrapped around me wonderfully You're everything that I believed in All the long nights beneath the street lights But now those times are gone, my friend It's over and I'm sorry for this The good times, and the bad times I'll surely miss you Don't tell me that everything is fine Is this something I have to live through, really? Don't tell me that everything is fine I could take it all back, I could take it away I wish I could tell you that everything is fine

Low 05:57
All I was runs with the dull colours When it bleeds it pours I should have stayed indoors All we were Fades with a crooked smile You don't believe in me I never believed me I believed to hold on would heal all the wounds of time And so deceived, stretched your means The depths in me begin to scream a liar's truth I don't want to belong to you Just stay low Maybe I'll feel better if I get some daylight I think I'll unwind Need to stay low Maybe I'll feel better I can't shake the edge I should have stayed in bed I believe I've changed More than I should And I've become Slowly, but surely Nothing good Will come to me There's no use in trying And I lament the things we will never share together I keep picturing you in white My valentine, my blushing bride My hope for life, my hopeful life And for the last time Yeah it's bringing me down And it's getting me down And it's running me down For the last time Yeah it's bringing me down And it's getting me down And it's getting me down
11.
What are we racing towards? What are we reaching for? Spaces cold and dead? I need you right here What are you reaching for? What are you reaching for?
12.
Push me, I want to go back The memories we made are lost with other sacred artifacts And who should know what tomorrow could bring? Golden holidays, and all the things we used to dream Filled with screams Life endured, pacified, assured Who would ever feel the need for change? So relieved, another sun goes by Quickening the only time I'll ever, ever feel alive And who could know what tomorrow should bring? Someone so damn young shouldn't have to think these things Or feel these things Life indoors, pacified, assured Threatened by the outside world Can you see me?

14.
You're not You're not done here You still have time And you You found something new Gotta find a way Gotta find another way home Kick the leaves, it's Hallow's Eve And all the monsters go to sleep
15.
And when the leaves fall The past will die And we can stay Hide from the day And when the leaves fall The past will die And we can stay Hide from the day Hide from the sun We hide from the day Ascend, lucid hereafter We hide from the sun Happily ever after

about

Unpolished, Lo-Fi. Just raw scabs. Enjoy.

This is the B-Side, sister LP of Hypnagogia.

EDIT: The version of Low on here is garbage. I accidentally uploaded the shitty version with half the verses missing, and a horrible take of the ending vocals that were heavily edited and it sounds like shit. I hope that eventually, I can release a remastered version of Hypnagogia, Scabs, and Cryptomnesia with the full / normal versions of all the songs, plus the (really good) Hypnagogia outtakes.
