Cover up everything Cover up every single thing Hide every record of you ever knowing me at all Confiscate all that’s sharp Anything that could break your heart Hide all the evidence The proof of my crimes Stains of my fall Brother, would you help me out? Is there anything allowed Can I keep a memory Or that song you played for me You burn a memory Extinguish it and there’s nothing left The last time I heard you say my name You wanted to die through all the pain If no one will ever say it again ‘ROSEMARIE’ is just another corpse Hang me up in the yard My thoughts will follow you into your dreams Sunshine, would you help me out? I swear I can show you how I promise I’ll be kinder now Can I even say sorry now This song is an endless contraption of pain Which I use to control my reign And every time you make another mistake I crucify you on the stake Well, what's done is done and what's gone is now gone I poisoned the light out of the sun And when I finally kill myself Maybe I'll see you up ahead My life is like a casket It sinks into the ground You'll find it in the basket When I'm going down Brother, don't you worry When you catch the lie Lily of the valley This is a goodbye

I sat and watched you play around in the park I guess you liked the feel of sand You were building those castles When a wind swept by my hair And your piece came tumbling down I stood up and went by your side I said, “There, there. Don’t worry, little brother. The world could be against you. But no matter what you do, I’ll stay by your side.” And I hugged you tight That’s when you cried You don’t have to be nice Or wise Or kind I’d still love you It’s not something I can take back at any price I still broke you I’m not sure if I can love myself anymore Not that I ever did before Maybe love isn't something I know enough I’m wearing makeup, makeup, makeup Can you even love yourself? Or do you just pretend until you burn the memories So take a deep breath Try not to choke myself Don’t hang me when I’m dead “MARI, you’re nice And wise And kind So how do you do all of that?” SUNNY, there’s a simple explanation I’m none of those things

I could overdose on one med, and another, and another And I'll never be myself Depersonalization's not as bad as you think Though it doesn't seem to help I could never tell him what I dream about He always thought that was cheap I don't even wanna think about it now So I never go to sleep And I never go to sleep And I never go to sleep And I never go to sleep I never go to sleep When I close my eyes I see you, only you It's a bit askew Everything's a blur I can't tell if it's you anymore It's another scene that I have seen before Nothing I do will make you stay Is there any way that I can repay? There's a valley with wind and fresh air You and I were there You looked absolutely mortified I was terrified I stepped back as you pushed me to the edge I was at the ledge I can't wake up and I start to weep I can't tell if I'm asleep I can't tell if I'm asleep I can't tell if I'm asleep I can't tell if I'm asleep Can't tell if I'm asleep And you push me down And I fall, and you cry Oh thank God, you're fine Won't see me around I'll be gone when you catch the lie It's another day that I am staying inside With my thoughts to stay I wanna blow this night away I just want you to stay

Rough kicks, you’re never gonna be alone One kiss, I’m always gonna bring you home No miss, all your tears and your fears, I will wipe away But nothing I can do will make you stay Freeze frame, put notes on this piano I’m gone, he better leave a love note Don’t hang up on me, I’m alive in the kill zone This song is my bow and arrow “You can’t keep blaming yourself,” says HERO I’m not having this; I leave him on missed, though I only go outside at night, let’s hit the back road Taking the long way forward I’ll lose my identity to not be your enemy Living life vicariously, just hurry up and bury me I guess I’m just a fucking child after all I throw a fit when I don’t get what I want And you know, I don’t even know what I want It’s like one side of me wants perfection but another wants you to stay I want you to stay I can’t change what has passed I can never change the past And all these thoughts gather in clusters Like how every strand of hair flutters Suicide crosses my thoughts at every turn And look at you, you’re getting better Then I’m okay, I’ll be your martyr I just hope you have the heart left in you to mourn All it costs is your love This is do or die, fade into the midnight Illuminate and write, this is the afterlife Burn a memory, we’ll meet again at the recite Maybe you’ll panic at my sight We’re up the stairs, give it a light shove I’m falling down, I see your tears above I wake up, I’m shocked at my dreams or the lack thereof All I’m missing is your love

I’ve been contemplating suicide But I thought about what if you had died If you died in my arms with that knife stuck inside Maybe by now, I’d kill myself Maybe someday, they’ll forget Maybe everyone that we called friends will live to move on past ahead I don’t think I can say that is something I could do Because you are all I’ve got You’re my sunshine in the dark SUNNY, SUNNY, SUNNY In a world without you What’s the point of living through? When I’m the one responsible for this truth Fight through the storm and rainy weather Don’t be afraid, we’ll do it together I'll be your perfect sister Don’t worry, little brother Even if I am tarred and feathered I’m never gone, we’ll do it together I'll be your perfect sister Don’t worry, little brother I heard you making another mistake I yelled and you cried It made my heart ache When I remember, I can’t go to sleep Keeps me awake Because better’s not enough Till you’re perfect, don’t give up And that was my bluff What kept me alive But for you, it made you wish you could die Because you are all I’ve got You’re my sunshine in the dark SUNNY, SUNNY, SUNNY In a world without you What’s the point of living through? When I’m the one responsible for this truth Fight through the storm and rainy weather Don’t be afraid, we’ll do it together I'll be your perfect sister Don’t worry, little brother Even if I am tarred and feathered I’m never gone, we’ll do it together I'll be your perfect sister I'll be your perfect sister

At the top of the ferris wheel He leaned in closer I said, “Hurt me, and throw me away.” He started crying His tears on my cardigan I laughed, “You can’t do anything right.” Throw me a lifeboat, I’m drowning again What do you mean that we’re more than mere friends Expand your mind for me And stop saying sorry “...Can’t stand to see you like this, MARI.” Why don’t you piss off? If you really care enough Instead of me, you’d go see SUNNY Throw me into the lake, I’m drowning the world That’s not too bad for a Pisces girl My life is like a casket being pulled down to the ground A lifeless doll going back to dirt, that’s all it amounts And around my corpse are lilies of the valley Reminds you of the times when we used to be happy But I’m the one who messed it all up, what do I know? Just a suburban girl with too much thoughts to let go Burn it all down, like ashes in the sky Oh, tear it all down, the memories and the lies I can hear his cries yelling through the door I rest my case, there’s nothing he can do to help me anymore I egg him on, like, "Come on, won’t you be my HERO?" “MARI, I’m never ever gonna leave you alone.” Leave me alone! Why would I deserve this The girl you loved is never coming back, the things you miss Burn it down, like ashes in the sky Oh, tear it all down, the memories and the lies And who will remember my memories when I die? Will I hurt them more in death than when I was alive? It’s a lie I’m a lie Don’t ask why I can’t see his face but I know he can’t keep it straight Predictable; can’t take it when a girl retaliates Burn it all down; this bridge, I’ll burn down! Let it all fly, the ashes in the sky! Destroying every good will, nowhere I can fall back “Get the fuck out, HENRY. And don’t come back.” Burn it down, like ashes in the sky! Oh, tear it all down, the memories and the lies! He can kiss me in the car and I’ll hold my breath For a single moment, I forgot my fear of death We could lose our minds, they could find us in a ditch They’d say, “She wouldn't do that, the boy made her a bitch!” I pushed him away, I looked down in a frown He turned and said “Alright,” and drove me back to town Is it bad that I want to keep him around? Is it bad that I want to keep him around And the room’s filled with silence Sold my soul for a pittance It doesn’t make me look good, I know There’s the piano OMORI says, “MARI, you’re nice And wise And kind Don’t you know?” You’re absolutely right I don’t need him All I need is your love And that’s all it costs As long as you get better And I pay my price Then it’s fine Even if that means I’m lost There’s still one last thing I have left to say Maybe he’ll find out when I go away When you read the newspaper, don’t hold your breath “Good girl ROSEMARIE found hanged to death” And I wanted to tell him I love him

Let’s take a stroll across the park Dead in the night, won’t have to go back home Watching the stars together, all alone I wanted to share this moment with you You woke me up with teary eyes I looked at the time; it’s 12 o’clock, midnight You couldn’t go back to sleep even if you tried I laughed and took you by your hands Come on, you don’t have to worry Sometimes, rules are meant to be broken Throw away your woes, wipe it away now I wanted to share this moment with you Feeling the wind brush by our cheeks The chill feels great out here The stars glisten brightly in the sky When we were young, we used to do that every night So how come it seems like you want to get away from me now How did it come to this? I will always love you back Even if the stars will not align You won’t have to be afraid Because I’m always by your side Across all times, forever more Yes, I may be gone someday But I will shine brightly Always in your memories Like the stars we saw that night I will turn this hurt into a medium you can light I’ll go now I’m sorry I’ll go now I’m sorry I’ll go now I’m sorry I’ll go now I’m sorry

It’s your birthday Everyone has got a gift for you You opened it And I won’t ever forget the light in your eyes At my birthday I remember mother bought a gift for me A grand piano And at the center is etched its name: OMORI So I stopped my lungs to a null And everything had come to a halt When I played a melody You smiled, a praise So I sealed your fate And it’s all my fault Don’t forgive me at all This is another goodbye This pain that I brought And a song left unfought Beautifully telling a lie Why am I? It’s a Sunday We spend the afternoon practicing The recital I bring it up at dawn The light in your eyes are gone Maybe someday We can all go back to better days But until then You made another mistake You’re out of tune one semitone It feels like you’re one step ahead of me When I stop the song and yell I never noticed it myself But you clenched onto your violin The present that we all got for you And it was like your palms were bleeding But gritting through was all you could do But SUNNY, you’re wrong Cause we both loved this song And I ruined it for us They all loved you so much But my love took your life You wished you weren’t alive With this instrument of death OMORI sings its threat And I play this vapid song But I know it’s not guilt That keeps me alive If I loved you, I’d try to make things right And it’s all my fault Don’t forgive me at all And it’s all my fault Don’t forgive me at all

Sunlight on an autumn porch When I go outside, it blinds my eyes It’s a scorch Melts my freezing heart until there is none left Perfect as it seems, there’ll be nothing else left ‘Self’ is like a glass window When it shatters, it reveals who I am with a crescendo It’s an imitation game and I’m the only actress I become everyone else’s favourite version of me Because I literally can’t imagine what it’d be like To live as someone who doesn’t live off validation Determination got me feeling high Got you in a bind You cry Will you ever catch the lie? Bleeding palms and a weeping face Fingers with calluses leave behind a trace You made another mistake You made another mistake Well, it’s true, I’ve been writing letters And I heard that you’re getting better I hate that it makes me glad you’re fine without me Was it worth it now? I won’t lie, I’ve been acting stranger These feelings are a heartbreak exchanger One day you’ll hear these songs Maybe you’ll ask me: “Was it worth it now?” Of course it was! And when it’s all said and done There’ll be nothing left but bones And when I’m dead and gone You’re never gonna be alone Pride is like a death trap A counterpart to love Because you have to be conceited to care for those you love It’s a new game of heart invader I’m a hell raiser and a life trader It’s a lonely path I’m never going back from When you see me alive, I’ll have failed my mission I’ll be suffocating mid air as you try to get me down Foam is forming at the mouth It’s a heart-break-down Save a breath I know how to keep it straight Eyes are going white and my skin is going pale Eventually, everything will stop You’ll look up at me and say, “What has she become?” I hope you’ll never forget even when your hair is going grey It’s one of many ways I’ll never go away You’re getting better every day You’re getting better every day Well, it’s true, I’ve been writing letters And I heard that you’re getting better I hate that it makes me glad you’re fine without me Was it worth it now? I won’t lie, I’ve been acting stranger These feelings are a heartbreak exchanger One day you’ll hear these songs Maybe you’ll ask me: “Was it worth it now?” Of course it was! And when it’s all said and done There’ll be nothing left but bones And when I’m dead and gone You’re never gonna be alone He told me it’d end this way I swear I’m your worst mistake I knew it would end this way My love’s like a deadly phase

Nothing’s ever lost forever They’re just stuck inside the corners And when you need it the most It’ll be there before you know it But there’s part of me that hopes Hoping you will never let me go Now watch me tie this rope on a branch As I wrap it around my neck You don’t have to worry The only victim here is me Don’t hang around at the cemetery You’re gonna catch a cold I want you to grow up, be happy Live your dreams, be healthy Everything I couldn’t be Brother It was never your fault I was too hard on you I just wanted it to be perfect But I never stopped loving you No use saying all of that now Please take care of mom and dad And I know that you’ll blame yourself But please; I’m begging you SUNNY, let me go! There’s still a part of me that wishes I could haunt you forever I don’t want to say goodbye I wanna live and stay alive I want to see his face again I don't want to die But when it happens You have to let it go Everyone has a reason for living Nobody wants to give up the feeling Then it’s fear keeping us all alive then Scared of loss, scared of death; so that’s life then I’m afraid of my life, of my shame Not desiring the fall, it’s the terror of flames So that’s why I can’t stay even if I had tried And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried Be your perfect sister or die trying Rather hang myself than see you crying Feeling morbid cause you saw me dying Everyone has a reason for lying I can sing, you will hear a eulogy Write every night instead of saying sorry Hearing you weep through the door, whispering, pleading “I miss you, MARI” I’m at the edge now About to fall off Fire’s getting closer Head for the exit I’m jumping off This is my goodbye then Don’t try to understand You weren’t here Read the papers Made it to the news, dad Are you proud of me yet Guess I doubt it Everyone has a reason for trying Everyone has a reason for fighting Fuck buying flowers! I want you to move on Take a bus to nowhere Anywhere that’s not here Somewhere far away Bring all our friends Just don’t think about me Never feel sorry Everyone wants to cling onto life Nobody wants to say goodbye If there is one last thing I can say to you “SUNNY, thank you for being alive.” No one's ever lost forever When I die, I’ll go away But I will visit you occasionally Do not be afraid No one's ever lost forever They are caught inside your heart If you garden them and water them They make you what you are - “No one's ever lost forever When you died, you went away But you will visit me occasionally I won’t be afraid No one's ever lost forever Memories are where you reside I will keep them in a song That’s how I can stay alive.”
