- Abrasion Collar
What did you expect me to say
Did you think this would end your way
Like I'd ever let you leave
Without a scar
Did you really think that I would
Convince myself that I should
Make a wish upon your dying star
- Broken Fingers
I will play these notes with broken fingers
if that's all that's left to me.
No matter what I sacrifice,
you'll question my sincerity.
The years went by when I lost track
of the life I tried to live.
All the time we won't get back;
- Homecoming
you said you're sure I'd understand
but you know god damn well
that's a burden you can't give and walk away from
I guess I'll know when he comes home
if you're alive or if you're gone
so thank you for the time I have to wait
won't you stay a little longer
- Momentary Absolution
it took me almost two days to realize I had a gun in my mouth
for you girl, I break all the rules
for you I sing to myself
let it rain down from the ceiling with my brains
let it rain down
let it rain down on you
I want to be devoid of consequence
- Needle Drugs
she's got a little syringe with her heart in it
she wants to shoot it in my veins
no I won't accept this gift
it comes packaged with her pain
she's got a little syringe with her drugs in it
it's connected to her brain
she thinks the world owes her a gift
because she was born insane
- Open Wrists
I can't say, I look better to you then I did to myself
On that long road of running away
All the things in the past you don't try to grasp
You're just happy that it's a new day
And we share this in twilight, the distance, the hindsight
Quiet as if we were prey
But I knew all along, from the start of this song
You'd play this as I was walking away
- Silent
Jennifer, I've missed you for a long time
and now it seems I always will
you understand now, we'll never meet again
not like this at least
and I don't remember what excuse I gave
but now it seems so lame, whatever it was
and my mind will hold in these rooms
- The Inconvenient
If we are tempted in this life
Don't act like you're surprised
It's not that I have change
So don't say you knew me when I was a better person
I never was a different man
I just let the mask lift more
Than you could stand
