- Birds
You'll be the smoke in my mouth, I'll suck you in, I'll push you out, and then you'll disappear and turn into something else.
You're just a little moth drawn to my organ burning hot, get too close, your little body is going to multiply.
You were the flood that hit this city, and you carried me away.
You gave me a constant within your flow before you dried up and left me empty.
You are camouflage, but you can't hide much.
Is this a wolf or is this my fingernails changing shape?
- Bottled
A phone call to turn you into a machine.
You've got less than ten minutes to save the one from which you were made.
And even promising words are not enough promise for you.
You need to feel the beat of life within her chest, so you can feel it again too.
These vices double as a reason for the way we feel the way we do.
Solitude in a family filled living room.
And I wish that they could see, the impact made on the children they taught so perfectly how not to be.
- Cobarde
Am I your anchor while you walk through your day?
Or am I the feather on your shoulder while I'm stuck dragging my feet?
I see you countless times throughout my day.
Each time in a different face but they're always walking away.
How does it feel to abandon your own blood?
What a beautiful picture you paint of Love to teach your son.
Do you remember her face? Or just her body? Is that all you could retain?
- Dandelion
First kiss to last it was June to June
The years with you in between
Have another for me
Mishap in greener grass, it left a stain
It sent you home with the blues
I'll have another for you
- End of the World
It's the end of the world in the face of friend with his head in his hands,
The sun hid below the horizon.
I watch as he weeps, screaming hate into me like the truth that it has come to be.
You emulate the pattern, giving the stitch so,e consistency.
It's hard to believe this is what you wanted.
At the bottom nothing matters, not the tool that you use to escape,
Just the scapegoat to place all the blame.
- Find A Way
Hey, I know you're in it, it's okay because something's always gotta give.
I know you're waiting to be saved, but waiting never made a change.
Go and find a way, find a way to wake up.
Find a way to move, find a way to move on.
Find a way to be, find a way to be strong.
Go and find a way, you go on and find a way.
You want to make it right, that doesn't make it right now.
- Goodnight
Goodnight my Love, my lovely Love. Goddamn shame to be a traitor.
I've got God in a shoebox under my bed waiting for my finger.
We both look better in the dark so I'll do it while were sleeping,
that way I will not reflect my father's defining feature.
The absence of consciousness, welcomes the presence of formulated manipulation.
I won't feel a thing if you don't.
- Love
You had the Love of a creator before I was born.
That ultrasound was of a son to be the light of your world.
October came, you were still alone.
My mother just couldn't let go, but you understood.
You even handed her the blanket that you made for me in hope, my little body would be yours to hold.
You know that blanket was the blanket that kept me warm?
l think today it's still the blanket that continues to keep me warm.
Because I get cold when I think of him.
- Love to Burn
The diamonds in your eyes, they keep my sunglasses on.
We take the love we feel we earn and leave the rest to burn.
You don't need me, but we'll make believe like you do. Well you don't.
I'll be sour, you be sweet; it's nothing new. What are you still doing here?
I know the space is hard enough without me making more.
- Phantom Family
Summer day started to cry
What does that do to your smile?
Spent the afternoon inside watching the days go by
Watched your anger turn to flame
Sub relationship for fire
Use my face for a little while
Do I turn back time?
- Plague
Satan sleeps inside my brain and when he wakes he takes me far away. He takes me to this place, that I completely hate, where I'm a prisoner in my own body. I cannot escape, I'm just a rat in a maze, and he sleeps less and less with the the days coming. So I beg and beg, crawling on my knees, "depart from me." But He won't.
The ocean isn't any louder while the city sleeps.
We just aren't there to wash it out when were occupied with dreams.
A good friend once told me that "darkness only confirms what we cannot see."
Well I sunk underground and I'm laughing now because I finally understand what it means.
This is me, this is my disease.
- Slow
Water all around you.
Water all around me.
Soft little flames all around,
All around.
Your body is a wet puzzle piece.
My body, it fits perfectly.
The sound carries low,
- Slow Down
You still know authentic me,
All I know now is the chemicals pulsating.
You don't agree,
You promise we all get lost at some point some way.
Yeah but the season has changed, Fall has fallen away.
So now I'm stuck in this infinite dream,
Screaming in my sleep of how more than anything,
I need your beautiful slow down.
- Thank You
This is for you, the one that's here.
A circle resolves, sorrow follows, a crescent appears.
This was not the arrangement made.
What can you do when mother nature steals the lead?
The strangest part is what's gained from loss,
And to lose what's lost,
And to gain what's not.
- Understanding
Did you ever pray? Let me rephrase.
Did you ever pray to overcome
The circumstantial barricades?
Well I don't pray for even myself,
So I doubt that I'd do it for somebody else.
But I would have for you if I knew it would help.
So uneasy,
- Void
There's a void I've been filling for sometime with nothing good
Found the hurt in the foreshadow that was a line of blood
I've been hiding for the lion's share of a lonely life
A little people shy
I've not been dry, for far too long that I fear for what's inside
And so it goes, simply is at always was, and always will seem to go
Only time will tell the rest
