My Own 03:13
How can I not be nervous when you look like that? How can I think clearly when you talk like that? I need to make some money I need a life to call my own Because how can I support you when I'm two steps back? Can we talk a moment, put life on pause Give me a reason to quit my shitty job And spend the summer over at your house Lying wide awake lost inside my own head Imagining the things we would be doing instead My God I need to stop thinking It's not that hard to reach the top shelf But how can I love my neighbor if I hate myself?
2.
Do You? 03:22
Panty line I see it through your dress My mind will do the rest It's killing me Valentine Just look me in the eyes Tell me that you're mine And I'll believe I love you Repeat it every day Say it every way Only if you want me to Or I'll keep it inside Until the day I die It's your decision Summertime I'm laying on the floor As you walk through the door To look at me Hypnotise Do you believe in me? It's getting hard to breath But I know I'm just stressed out I've been thinking again About my problems I don't think I can win
3.
I Know 02:58
It's not that I'm on fire, I just need some time to breath You can drop and you can roll, makes no difference to me It's not that I'm a liar, it's just what I chose to see Every precious thing I have will turn away from me I know They brought it to the wire and then they chose to leave I waited for a year and it seems the same to me It's not that I feel lost It's just that I don't believe Every Sunday morning mass is just a fading memory I know It's not like I'm trapped, it's just that I don't feel free Everything for which I've worked is right in front of me I swear I'll see you soon but this is where I need to be I'll work it to the bone, just say you're proud of me I know

Itinerary 04:50
You found yourself Is it everything you wanted? Is it everything you hoped for? Well, not to me I'm voiceless I'll think until I'm buried My mind is filled with poison Please set me free The alcohol at 22 No longer wanted anything to do with me escaping for a night I took it all and wrote it down The hate it all was spilling out And you were there for me I spoke it out until my throat ran dry You sat patiently by my side And now my head is clear She's beautiful She's everything I needed She's everything I live for Just stay with me

Vera 02:33
It always seems so innocent But It's getting harder to take There's friends to talk it over with But they're getting harder to make A line drawn in the pavement But it gets crossed every day Try to think it over Does it matter anyway? My mind keeps on circling I'lll focus on the consequence If you take in all the pain My mind is bruised and battered And I'm done with feeling shame A penny for your family A dollar for your heart Here's hoping you rest easy We wished that from the start

about

This EP takes a range of thoughts and ideas between January and July of 2016. It discusses hiding thoughts for years on end, a breaking point where those thoughts can no longer be covered up, and the freedom felt when able to finally speak your mind. Your Bourgeois continues it's use of an acoustic alternative sound in order to deliver a simple, raw result driven mainly by lyrics.
