Nothing To Prove

(albüm: The Line Is A Curve - 2022)

You can keep the Mood-board. Look-book. Cake-walk. Hate-speech
Brass-neck. Face-lift. Hard right. Far left
I want doesn't get
Drink more, suffer less
Click-bait. Mistake. Makeshift. Piss-take
Forcefield. Boredom. Risqué. Mistress
Solves your problems. Keep up. Drift off
I want lift off

Hardcore. Last straw
Postcode. Passport. Class war
Stop suffering, dance more
Expect less than you asked for
I can understand staring at your hands
Like this wasn't what I planned
I can really see how hard it is to be
Watching it all happen like this really isn't me
But I can really trust that when everything erupts
Our particles will still remember how they crushed
Each other into dust. Each other into dust
Everything's enough. Everything erupts

Nothing to prove but bread
Nothing to lose but sleep
Nothing to do but less
Nothing to want but peace
Nothing to shoot but breeze
Nothing to hold but tight
Nothing to make but night
Nothing to hate but life
Nothing to want but more
Nothing to take but time
Nothing to prove

You can keep the Screw-face. Top-Down. Jackpot. Group-think
Update. Newsflash. Latest. New thing
I get doesn't want
Turn it off and on
Cut-throat. Catch-up. Blacklist. Binge-watch
Breakthrough. Breakdown. Your round. My shout
Nice life. Nice house
I want lights out

Hardcore. Dancefloor
Rosé. Nosebleed. Glass jaw
Stop suffering, laugh more
Expect more than the last straw
I can understand staring at the sand
Shifting in the glass like this wasn't what I planned
I can really see the edges of the key
It doesn't fit the lock but you make it turn for me
I can really trust that when everything erupts
Nothing will be left untouched
I can really tell, even when it's going well
The pendulum is readying to swing back on itself

Nothing to prove but bread
Nothing to lose but sleep
Nothing to do but less
Nothing to want but peace
Nothing to shoot but breeze
Nothing to hold but tight
Nothing to make but night
Nothing to hate but life
Nothing to want but more
Nothing to take but time
Nothing to prove

"Sincerity reigns supreme
If you're supposed to do it, you'll do it
So, you keep doing it until it's done
You get it did. U know like that?
It's them ones where you just have to know
Sometimes it's a trajectory
Sometimes it's a journey
That's where the focus is
So, if it gets focused in the right way at the right time
It's going to get done
But you have to keep trying
U know like that?"
