A Little Differentlythe idea of making everything perfect
appealing, so much trouble, never worth it
the idea of making everything right
keeps me up thinking late at night
a cracked window distorts the image
but no worse than it was when it was fogged
a simple change is all it takes
AspirationsTwist and turn in the violent wind
Sealing heart, mind and skin
Imagning the crying shame
When everything stays the same
But my aspirations are different
With the white of my eyes peering deeply
Through the black of your soul
Can't Look Awaythe darkness overhead
reminds me of when i bled
the cavity within my chest fills with you
my heart still beats in time to yours
black holes collapse as the rain pours
the cavity within my chest turns blue
Everything You Wantedcut the sky
with your paper wings
searing through the air
your soul sings
the dissonance is growing near
the harmonies recede in fear
Faulty Sparklei will soak myself in the rain
until i'm reflective
and i'll sprawl out underneath you
and get your feet wet
i'm a
faulty sparkle
Leashdon't worry
it's nothing much
no trouble at all
don't worry
if it doesn't make sense
let me take the fall
i'll always be the one
Our Special Placea man atop the roof
after climbing high
looking back down at the vines
that scaled as years passed by
a woman lights a fire
from the bottom of the greens
the man begins to panic
and jumps while he screams
Quiet Manyou may have seen me along the way
i am the quiet man, i'm quiet every day
i've got a story that i dare not speak
passersby feeling weak
sit the fall and through the spring and the summer
on this bench in the park
i try to stay inside, away in the winter
the evenings are too dark
Reasoning Up v1.4i saw my actions trailing
dissatisfaction was the hue
painted anew
i've come to feel those failings
and now i realign my view
what else could i do
i could sit and wait for the reaction
Right Trackback from sending a little part of me away
admiring shapes beneath me
caught my eye glowing brightly from a distance
what on earth could that be
do you call yourself stronger
when you avoid it altogether
just hold out a little longer
Street Railwaysoon the sun will set
a day of work behind
then we can forget
and drink if we're inclined
catch the bus downtown
the sky turns down the lights
hey are you around
let's throw back another pint
Teacher, Preacheryou tell me when to be afraid
so i know when to turn away
i will be yours to lead astray
my independence will decay
we teach each other how to fear
when insecure we disappear
a peace we've been deprived of
Terrible Ridei am the laughing man
at the side of the bed who extends his hand
i tell you i'll make you smile
i lurch over you and cough up black bile
you grip my palm so tight
but not too tight, you squeeze just right
it feel so good to give in
it's been a while, where's this feeling been?
The Answerin the eye of the storm a broken heart is healing
till the storm picks up again ignore the feeling
of being torn in two, of being ripped apart
of being put aside and put back at the start
if what it is is what it isn't inside me
i don't wanna be a part of what you wanna see
if what it is is what it isn't inside me
Timefliesi think thousand years have passed
while wondering how long i'll last
and it turns out time flies
i feel the earth has spun
a million turns around the sun
and it turns out time flies
the best decision that i've made
What You Doeverybody is gonna be happy \/ be happy
you're gonna make you so happy \/ so happy
the stitches didn't hold
my blood is running cold
you're tearing into me
you're happy as can be
the line is formed with red
