Fool
03:09
|
|||
Just a fool
Spinning around
All locked up
Never a frown
Blues and reds
They come and go
Children in bed
With nothing to show
Open the store
Find what's new
Mothers pot
Pot of stew
Look at the fool
Nothing to do
When a broken man
Stares back at you

Never Meant To Be
04:07
|

Calm, cool, collected for you
My thoughts inside, but I wanted to shout
You looked at me, I already knew
I don’t know how they got out
I could not take anymore
What did that smile conceal?
You crumbled to even the score
Were we just caught in the surreal?
I held you for the last time
Tears in your eyes
They became mine
No more reprise
I could not take anymore
What did that smile conceal?
You crumbled to even the score
Were we just caught in the surreal?

I Was With You
03:03
|

I was with you in the end
I was with you in the end
The world is one big cosmic clock
And I don't think it has time to stop for you
People come and people go
People don't have time to slow down for you
But I was with you in the end
But I was with you in the end
The world is one big cosmic clock
And I don't think it has time to stop for you
People come and people go
People don't have time to slow down for you
But I was with you in the end
But I was with you in the end
I was with you in the end
I was with you in the end

You Lost It All
06:43
|
|||
Oh you lost it all
And thought it came back
Now you can't stall anymore
Because a fact is a fact
She's a genius and a bitch
And her words cut through you
Figured with a careful stitch
You could mend eyes so blue
Singing as if I know us
Because I do
I am me and you are she
Together we become we
I was angry and did a wrong
The candy and sex was a step right
Now I have to force this song
To get back in the side that was right
Maybe we can forget that rubicon

When I'm with you I see rain
Do you feel the same
When I wake up I feel pain
Can you relate
Squeeze my health into my veins
Anything to get away
Pray to get this out of my head
Too tied up to get out of bed
I can't trust myself with these meds
I can always drink your health instead
My heart is all black, my mind is all red
Sometimes I'd be better off dead
I don't feel the silence
That we share for years
It's this reliance
Why I miss you so much my dear
The nights embrace I long for
I see you walking in my dreams
You're walking through the door now
You flow into loves stream
The days are so lonesome
Despite the company
They don't know where we come from
Our lives this mystery

I can't get you off my back
I can't get you off my mind
I have to get this off my chest
Because sometimes gold doesn't shine
Stop taking whats not in reach
Building giants from bones on the beach
Why is violence your only route?
Stop fearing what you should really doubt
A shiver and a smile
Was it worth all the while?
Lousy, rotten, spoiled throughout
We dried up in this drought
Stop taking whats not in reach
Building giants from bones on the beach
Why is violence your only route?
Stop fearing what you should really doubt
The dawn can only get so dark
The hours are only marks
I cant help sinking into your tar

I Wanted To Tell You
01:49
|
|||
You are beautiful
I wanted you to know that
I never told you
I look up and see
There’s a hole in the ceiling
Where the sun comes in
And you are glowing
Like a Bible verse highlight
I read and reread
I wanted to tell you
But it's too hard
It's too hard

Time Runs Out
04:06
|

We are the western dream
The failed vision of our fathers
Calling all mothers
To now raise your daughters
And look to the Sun
The beasts are in heat
The laws have been torn and tarnished
Man asks for nothing but
To be returned from where he was banished
The garden is left to burn
Our children are rabid, moaning
The elderly are weak now
Take up your shake groaning
For the fields still must be plowed
No where to fly to
Hell is built on broken backs
Heaven is lost in the rotten lies
Can we be saved
To be saved means to comply
Can hope be renewed

Prayer
02:57
|
|||
Say a prayer for me tonight
While I slip and though I fight
I can't help but keep you in my mind
Longing and breaking I seem to find
Broken dreams, and sunken hearts
Trying to get along through the dark
I wish I may, I wish I might
Pull me through this black tonight
Say a prayer for me, a lie
Tell me everything will be alright
A thought like this should be a crime
Forget the world is asleep this time
Broken dreams, and sunken hearts
Trying to get along through the dark
I wish I may, I wish I might
Pull me through this black tonight

Growth

Shattered and beat but he aims to compete
How can he understand that the world is at his feet
Upwards he falls till the pain subsides
After this squeeze, I swear I'll go dry
Watching the cream swirl in his tea
He breaks his own heart longing to be
Free
Away
Gone from the gray
Insomnia sheep but his minds still asleep
Taking the backseat to his life bitter sweet
His thoughts ramble on until he forgets where he was
Thinking to himself my god what have I done
Watching the cream swirl in his tea
He breaks his own heart longing to be
Seen
By you
To escape this blue
