Promise 04:57
Have you ever broken a promise? Ours lies within my palm. I feel ridiculous, Diving into the ocean, I’m aiming to reel in my heart You think your story is true but its So misconstrued, to me it is deciphering runes. I don’t have anything to hide from you. Nothing to hide from you. Crystalline, sacred beams, dissipate me. endlessly, I am flesh that breathes. I don’t believe in prophecy. I am the flesh that breathes. I am the flesh that breathes. Was it hard for you to believe, you added darkness to the night? But then again, so did I. Trying to see through murky water, clouded by your narcissistic fevor. I won’t look over my shoulder this time, lover. I won’t look over my shoulder this time, lover. Crystalline, sacred beams, dissipate me. Endlessly, I don’t believe in prophecy. I am the flesh that breathes. Have you ever broken a promise? Have you ever broken a promise? Have you ever broken a promise? Ours lies within my palm. I feel ridiculous, diving into the ocean. I am trying to reel in my heart. I know you think your story is true, its really So misconstrued, to me it is deciphering runes. I don’t have anything to hide from you. I don’t have anything to hide from you. All you have left is your spirit. I’m gonna kill the last of my pride, to get back to the light. All I can do is stay the night. How do you sleep in that bed, dreaming of someone you’ve never met? believing you’re somebody you’ve never been.

Tenderness 03:00
A tender bruise, being used addicted to the abuse. Lovely sting, pretty thing. Smoking till I can't breathe. Kiss me till I feel nothing Could you spare me some tenderness? Tenderness. Its all I have. Its all I have Kiss me till I feel nothing Kiss me till I feel nothing It’s all I have Kiss me till I feel nothing Kiss me till I feel nothing

Met last week to get coffee What’s happenin to me My body is bruised and weak but, All that’s on my mind is what you think. We kissed in the closet, until it got humid, and my roommate walked in. On the door, on the door knocking. I feel so stupid, I feel so stupid, I feel so stupid, I feel so stupid. I just want your affection. I just want your affection. I just want your affection. I just want your affection. Coughing, started smoking. Switch my codependence, shit ain’t workin. Checking, phone is buzzing Just to see if you have texted. We kissed in the closet, until it got humid, and my roommate walked in. On the door, on the door knocking. I feel so stupid, wanting your affection, I feel so stupid. I just want your affection. I just want your affection. I just want your affection. I just want your affection. I want to give you my attention. I just want your affection. Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey…

Don’t let them invite misery to your party It aint invited. Don’t let it through in the night Saranghaeyo, don’t let go Despite struggle, dont you know Beauty shine through your soul Through the coldest falling snow. Saranghaeyo, don’t let go Despite struggle, beauty shines through your soul. Heeju , don’t let them invite misery to your party. It aint invited. Don’t let yourself go missing Don’t let yourself go missing

I gave you parts of me I can never get back I gave you parts of me I can never get back Nice to know you Nice to know you Nice to know you

Olive branch 06:14
My inner narrative says I’m worthless. Will this be the night I end this ? Mosh pit, drunk text accident. Hurting is how we’d manage. Coping with hearts we’d broken. I want love but am afraid to receive it I want love but when it comes I pretend not to feel it I had love and pretended not to see it Cause I am full of loneliness On the top of the mountain. Recollecting fragments. Losing my best friend. My soul extended, Said things i regret yeah, Nothings perfect. I wish for nothing but peace between us Will you take my hand, olive branch. I want love but am afraid to receive it I want love, leaving read receipts yeah. I want love but I won’t accept it I want love but am afraid to give it. I had love, and pretended to not see it. Cause I am full of loneliness Will you take my hand, this olive branch. I wish for nothing but peace between us Will you take my hand, olive branch. Olive branch Extending olive branch I wish for nothing But peace now

about

Saccharin is commonly used as a sugar substitute.
Humans can’t break down saccharin, so it leaves your body unchanged.
However, it can have an unpleasant, bitter aftertaste.
