Isabella This is my favorite release by Onat to date. I love where he's going musically. Every song was really unique and crossed genres but still felt put together like a full release should.
I couldn't choose between 'The Dream', The Boy Who Lived In The City', and 'Told' as my favorite track
I also really liked the guitar on track 6
Love you Onat <3 <3 Favorite track: The Dream.

there was a boy who lived in the city he used to walk around all sad and lonely losing friends losing care it happens everywhere in the city over there people broken beyond repair you have to leave i am a boy who lives in the city wandering around all sad and lonely i guess things could be worse
3.
I don’t want you to know that the whole summer i’ve been alone don't go outside a minute if you want some fun then forget it whole summer i’ve been alone by myself with no one else next to me looking outside old guys playing yachtzee swallow a spoon of cinnamon no one does that anymore dead from lack of adrenaline life’s become such a chore is this what they call summer each day gets hotter melting down like shitty ice cream all sweat turns to stream someone just take me anywhere like Morrissey i dont care i’ll do anything anything is better than nothing
4.
Weeks pass by, day by day, it all slips away But i feel no improvement in the quality of life If looks could kill i’d be in jail and my family would bail I’ve had enough, I think too hard, my soul’s up for sale And I hate myself Oh I hate myself I hate myself Like everyone around me This is a game that you can’t win,you just waste your time Around here no one knows what’s yours what’s mine And if i could leave already believe me i would Why do they pretend to care,why are people so rude This is the last song I will write and the last breath i will take No one knows or no one cares into what I will be made I might just fall over and die nothing quite matters As i spend more time here my future blackens
5.
im not sticking with you cuz your heart is made out of poo anywhere that you might go i'll run away from you
6.
life’s not all about the feelings you left out but it’s about the people making friends isn’t legal now i walk around trying to find my sound now i’m just confused bout the things i refused what about all the parties theres none during days like these see you can miss any day when you go another way
7.
I talk too much I talk too much I talk too much I talk too much I talk too much I talk too much I talk too much
8.
you just want to use me don't you hey dude i was just lying fooled you i thought this was a joke is it a joke and you say you just wanted to use me like them, you’re a jerk too i bet you’ve been used at some point you got no character left in you nobody wants to hang out with you you just want to use them don't you nobody wants to hang out with you you just want to use them don't you you just want to use me i know in this other paradox i saw you’re using me i know i’m tired of everyone and i’m gonna keep going even though i hate every single one of them like i said i hate them all in the paradox i saw i know, i know, i know they’re using me i will never see the light of day again
9.
The Dream 02:21
i saw you in my dream we were on an elevator i saw you standing there and singing a song you seemed quite alone so i started singing along with you i never saw you again been thinking of you since then you could have been mine i could have been yours so why don’t we just lock the doors i don’t know who you are i don’t know where you are i don’t know even if you exist but i just cant resist thinking about you looking for you
10.
i want to feel you,you want to feel me we’re different souls but we’re essentially the same same mistakes same land same time same feelings same trust same problems same pain same passion same stars same space same everything we don’t want to accept that we’re the same we think that we’re special special is nothing we want to stick around as long as we can but we don’t really like how things are going we wish we were in a better place,you and me we’re hiding in the same caves every single day we go through the same exact shit the same people the same classes we watch the same music we listen to the same music every single day we use the same word to start a conversation which is “hi” we use the same word to end a conversation which is “goodbye” or something along those lines we think we’re different souls but we’re still the same we’re nothing special everyone there’s no such thing as a special person or something different we’re the same
11.
Stranded at a Starbucks thinking of you How many times quite a few Never leaving trying to withdraw Don’t tell her it was me that you saw Stranded at a Starbucks thinking of you How many times quite a few This latte it tastes like spit Fits my life cuz it’s gone to shit I don’t meet people anymore I recently stopped going outdoors I’m just stuck to doing daily chores I hate my life can i swap it with yours? You think you don’t need help but its true Your friends who are now there only for you Will be gone in two weeks i know its sad All found dead in a terrorist attack Every single day it gets closer The day we finally find another Another one in such pain like us Maybe one we even could trust Another day we’ll find the guy That we can trust with our pain With our sorrow another day Maybe we’ll find him someday Maybe not today maybe someday far away But we’ll find him anyway
12.
I look around at all my friends, the 1-2-3-4-5 dead ends, the kids I'll never see again, the kids who mean the most to me. Staying up until the morning, in my kitchen swapping stories; memories I can't forget, no matter how the summer went. We're here forever, and we'll die together. If you plant a seed, it grows into a tree, and to us, to everyone, this never meant a thing. If you plant a seed, it grows into a tree, and I'm sorry Kamryn, that she never meant a thing. This song's for you, wherever you might be, I pray that you stay golden and never come back home. This song's for you, this song's for movin' on. This song is for our friends who've been there all along.

Table 02:40
Yes i know that you were done Yes i know it's not the time for fun Yes i know you don’t wanna see me Yes i know you think you turned the table Yes i know i don’t mean shit Yes i know the kiss of death bit Yes i know who i thought you were Yes i know you wanted me to burn on a table

Told 07:41
I’ve gotten tired of everything cuz life has nothing more to bring don’t be sad cuz i am already i know i’m a huge ass git i’m sorry I keep saying words don’t know what they mean i bet its unlike any other words that you’ve seen you’re running behind you know you’re going a bit too slow every single place you go I’ve been before been a fucking eternity since what you did to me you really think i still care you really think i still dare and then i remember all the things i did in September all the things i had to do all the things done for you like I told your mother I got kinda hotter And fitter And brighter And kinder too But I told your sister I got way uglier And fatter And darker And meaner too you don’t need me anymore i cant sing my throat is sore but i’ll keep screaming as long as I can even when i cant i’ll just pretend and i keep saying words dunno what they mean i bet its unlike any other words that you’ve seen and i wonder where you are how you’ve been how you act if you’re still mean i don’t know you anymore i just cant watch i’m too bored but i’ll keep haunting as long as i can even when i cant i’ll just pretend you really think i still care you really think i still dare and then i remember all the things i did in September all the things i had to do all the things done for you like I told your father I got respectful And hopeful And careful And successful too But I told your brother I got disrespectful And hateful And doubtful And pitiful too You don’t need me anymore I can’t sing my throat is sore But I’ll keep screaming as long as I can Even when I can’t I’ll just pretend There is no end

I'm Weak 02:39
I’m trying to think like i’m not hurt but deep inside i know i am i’ll try to think like im okay i’ll smile even though i cant I’ll find a way to say all the words i wanna say do all things that i want to and to say that i love you I hope you feel dont feel depressed sad upset unhappy and stressed that i got these words off my chest feelings are hard to digest
16.
remember me 03:14
do you remember me the days when we used to be we used to walk to cities and places we could never see but then we found it out that we never had a sound since the day i let you free i really hope you remember me

about

The City is my third album. I experimented with more sounds and genres this time and I think it's a decent evolution in sound from Tired Of Me. I hope you enjoy it.

Physical copies possibly coming soon!
