One Hundred Era Valley Lyrics

Grow up

That's what I tell myself

Every time I think of getting back on the game

What a shame

The notches keep on crawling back

Only say they know me by name

Not the power that I held

For you to judge

It's out

The secret that I kept

And the time I tried to level my cares

Now I'm bare-boned weak

Hit my peak so long ago

I don't know where life is taking me

But I know my mind is shaking me awake

With the problems that I come home to

Am I able to find a place to see through

All the broken parts of me

And all the open hearts I'm breaking

Down to try to exercise my right of silence

And keep my mind distracted from threats of violence

Paralyzing fear comes through the dark

So hold me while I

Tell you all my reasons I want to leave

Commit to all the

Underwhelming selves you try to be

And let them know

You're never going back to the light this time

Everything you love is bottled inside

I'm done

And even though it's over

Later consequences take all the fun

Feeling nothing at all

But common sense has never been

My strongest of quirks

When I'm tryna come clean

And I've never been first

To admit my self-esteem

But when I escape I want you

To run away with me

While I

Tell you all my reasons I want to leave

Commit to all the

Underwhelming selves you try to be

And let them know

You're never going back to the light this time

Everything you love is bottled inside

So hold me while I

Slip into my mind to a fever dream

And wake me up if

Opening my eyes will find fewer screams

Join me if you need a safe place

To let things be

Cuz the Hundred Era Valley is the only place

You'll be free

Fearing love in this hub

It sort of reminds me of Station

But I'm seeing all successes

Where I used to contemplate my past failures

Now I'm slipping through the woods

And I'm diving in deep

To blaze a high in all the good

Like a portal to the past

I see my life flash before my eyes

All the wisdom of my present age

Loose ends getting tied

While I'm tied up in the present

Getting ready to die

That's what this valley is

A place for us to wait and hide
