Sorely Missed
02:59
|
|||
I'm sleeping in,
I'm pretty and thin in my best dreams,
Based solely on trust,
My encounters just split at the seams
Been waiting for, A healed-up sore,
Feeling something more, than suburban lore,
I'll fall in place, with lots of space,
That's all you ever wanted for me baby, that's all you ever needed from me
I'm sorely missed,
While you're sunkissed like a good teen,
All feelings go,
You're letting everyone know they can deplete
We'll dissipate, the mess we made,
I can't create, while changing state,
Never alone, maintaining tone,
It's all I've ever wanted from me baby, that's all I've ever needed from me
I'm ignorant, I'm heaven-sent,
I never meant, to live content,
You made the rules, I played the fool,
That's all you've ever wanted from me baby, that's all you've ever needed from me

I heard you call my name,
A half a dozen continents away from home,
It told me to go away,
For as long as it would take,
To occupy my shame, but as you know
If I could I would take you where I go,
It's not about the present
I think that I've been tied to the well-read,
Long enough to split my brain in two,
Out of spite I'll sigh into your bed,
To see if I can get enough of you
I'm craving the little things,
To steer me away from all the grandiose,
You make me meditate,
On my unforgiven state,
All the hearts I'd break if I went home
If I could I would take you where I go,
It's all about my resent
I think that I've been tied to the well-read,
Long enough to split my brain in two,
Out of spite I'll sigh into your bed,
To see if I can get enough of you

Flight Sounds
03:07
|
|||
You felt vintage to me girl,
I bought up all your space,
Let past decors stay the shag I would embrace
In a message vast and smart,
Your hands did relay,
This is bigger than the house of cards we play
Hey army in your skull just,
Stay and wait for the end of it all
I'm not telling you to be stronger I wanna
Be as much of a fly on the wall as all
It's so pretty when the night falls down,
I'm sinking underground with flight sounds
My plan to move up the Kinsey scale,
Was set back a few marks,
But life was moving too fast to save a spark
In a message vast and smart,
Your hands they did betray,
I'm cannon fodder for your Spring slaughter, that ritual malaise
Hey army in your skull just,
Stay and wait for the end of it all
I'm not telling you to be stronger I wanna
Be as much of a fly on the wall as all
It's so pretty when the night falls down,
I'm floating underground

Out of Frame
02:30
|
|||
I stared at walls for hours on end,
Hoping this time they might find signs again,
When words appeared I called them out,
Attempting to misuse this bout
Shake me, I'm taking,
Pictures daily,
Creating spaces out of frame again
When winter went I took it back,
Left the weather and took the better half,
I'm bleak and bitter but not bruised,
I wrapped my head in bandages for you
Make me, I'm breaking,
Best shots baby,
Creating spaces out of frame again

Take it easy on yourself,
Those ten foot fingers missed and hit your soul,
I'm not one to speak for health
But white beds stand for a last chance,
And my dead friends have the same stance,
My dad's mom's grave is evidence I'm not your home
I haven't seen you since that day,
You opened up and tied me to your side,
And though I've never seen your face
Those white beds stand for a last chance,
And my dead friends have the same stance,
My dad's mom's grave is evidence I'm not your home
You called me last night at the show,
I could sense the tremble in your voice,
Normally I'd remain cold
But white beds stand for a last chance,
And my dead friends have the same stance,
My dad's mom's grave is evidence I'm not your home

Word Searches
02:27
|

You're the kind that claps at movies when they fade to black,
But your innocence is frightening,
In contrast my bombast wears thin,
Like your skin
Finish up all the word searches you left, retrace your steps,
For that little kid you abandoned,
Will soon share the same flare to win,
As your kin
I wish it if our kids could get set on the grid,
And buy up a big house and drive it to the ground,
Live off the proceeds of the dust of their dreams,
And find a new place to call home, besides their own

Weathered Bombs
02:09
|
|||
Scales had tipped so I equipped a frame,
To make things seem more sane,
Grace had fallen made me call them vain,
With nothing left to obtain
I felt bigger in a sicker way,
but far too scared to say
You called it charm with zero chance of harm,
Twice a day,
I'm leaving with my riches, if I had some
Cars had crashed so I rehashed a song,
A loud and upbeat one,
And recognition piled in someone's,
Nonexistant lump sum
The stresses of a life of weathered bombs,
Of creation undone
You called it charm with zero chance of harm,
Once a day,
I'm seething with your riches, if I had one

The Seas Are Calm
03:55
|

Sometimes I wish that I had never worn,
That familiar flannel I wished your twitches had torn,
If chances were given, sentiments were exchanged,
This sinking ship of a life and strife would seem sane
How have I been waiting so long,
For a chance to play the prince or stay the pawn,
Late at night I start to regret,
All the hours I had wasted to reset
How can you rest assure that the seas are calm,
And how can you push forward when the will is gone,
It's been a couple years and I've never found fun,
In learning how, to become undone
Walked into you like a broken home,
The portraits were cracked while siblings fought for the phone,
And you were that diamond in the rough,
Your eyes were so tired but desired more than enough
How could I be so late for,
My chance to shake you to your core,
Lust is just a blessing and a curse,
But ends up as a chorus and a verse
How can you rest assure that the seas are calm,
And how can you push forward when the will is gone,
It's been a couple years and I've never found fun,
In learning how, to become undone
How can you find a cure for the time you lost,
Those days always fade with all the dreams you toss,
And what made you so pure to forget the cost,
Of everyone, you have loved and lost

Sense of Resist
03:24
|

Stacks of late down-payments,
Half-lost in found statements,
The cost is deeper than the womb
I've crossed my finest list,
Gold-plated sense of resist
No better offer to pursue
Knocking off loyal vendors while fulfill,
ing all my moral splendors but still
The wait is never-ending,
But my patience is that of a godsend,
An old friend turning into clay
Complacency's the address,
A witness to the witness,
I'll fabricate until I'm blue
That's not what this song meant,
That's called a mint opposite,
I thought you were of the few that knew
I found my favorite station saturnine,
The essence's vibrations throughout my,
Pretty women dressed in boxes,
I tried my best not to cost them,
I lost them, I told them not to change
|

Surrounded by thoughtlessness,
Drowning in the fatigue,
Manufactured, vapid kids
Dying to live serene
I'll overthink the compliments,
I've yet to receive,
And never try to make sense,
Of my old self-esteem
Godspeed your bitterness,
We're repeating the same old dream,
I'll send a messenger,
To say the typical things,
Bring her to me
Leave hope for another day,
Let the cynics run wild,
No one has ever wanted more,
Bad news than tonight
My fears are becoming more real,
Every time I half-wake,
Expectations are a bad deal,
But that's what I like and I like what I fake
Godspeed your bitterness,
We're repeating the same old dream,
I'll send a messenger,
To say the typical things
Leave out making sense,
It's alright if you can't breathe,
It's just what we feel,
The pointless anxiety,
Bring her to me

Free, Angelic
03:38
|

Send me your walk,
So you can bounce around my mind and when,
It's time to talk,
I will build a shrine
Turn around, to you,
Out-of-body, I see,
Watching it go, free, angelic
I tried to come up,
With a good excuse for lying,
But it turned ugly,
Around the third trip round Earth
Turn around, to you,
Out-of-body, I see,
Watching it go, free, angelic
