LONGSHOT
Crawling out
From those fast asleep
In the simple lives
They’ve sworn to keep
Cutting ties
A fast release
the weak culled out
I know, just let it
What is this now?
Did the failing light, catch a win somehow?
It comes as no shock
You still think you’re getting a real life
It’s a long shot
Still here you’re ready to learn
A call you will never lead
Locked in your weird disaster, keyed to a memory
I kinda let it slip through my fingers
They all died
I know, forget it
She is, she’s so
All the rain in life when you’re ready to go
At least now you’re getting to realize
It’s a long shot
Still here you’re ready to learn
Open those eyes
You still think you’re getting a real life?
It’s a long shot now
Still here you’re ready to burn
So now you kinda feel shattered
So now you’re crawling home
No need to realign, your beliefs this time.
So caught in the misery
Caught in the wave disaster that keeps your memory
It’s a long shot
It’s a long shot now
MAYBE
Maybe I’m moved
Enough to care
Did you really
Come to honor the ones you shed?
Above your looks
But they don’t get the feeling now
So you’ll lose
But maybe it beats coming out with the win
And you, you can’t say that nothing’s new
If you try to change me you’re just changing you
And you crawl, come here to be in line
And you’re falling through holes in your wasted time
If I get loose
I want you to kill me
Cut your wheels
And maybe you should have to live it down
You can’t say that nothing’s new
If you try to change me you’re just changing you
And you crawl, come here to be in line
And you’re falling through holes in your wasted time
I could never breathe with you pushing down
And I would like to forget your pain
Maybe I’m a bull rushing into your sunshine
Maybe it’s not on loan
What you cannot own
I used to think nothing got to me
but then it got to me
So no one gets his share
somehow it all seems fair
I could never breathe with you pushing down
And I would like to forget your pain
Maybe I’m a bull rushing into your sunshine
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe
Could I live forever?
Maybe
Should I die in silence?
Maybe, Maybe
SKY
Up in the sky we reach to the ground
On the ground we never stay
In a place that we can own
Until the role’s played
All of a thousand things are real
In a world you never see
On a path that ends in collisions
Right in front of your face
Our eyes turn away
From the ones to save
You and I fall asleep
Until something is nothing again
Up to the sky we reach from the ground
In a crowd we never say
All the things we need to know
And we’re all in our way
Two die
One remains
And I love the way
You and I build a scene
I’m the last one off
The stage is set for you
And you’re a no-show
Now I might be wrong
But you may not be right
And there’s nothing I care to know
But they all were wondering
Your heads in a storm cloud, did you know?
But it’s alright
It isn’t real
But it could go on forever
And burn up with the sun
Our eyes turn away
From the ones to save
Two die
One remains
And I love the way
You and I build a scene
I’m the last one off
The stage is set for you
And you’re a no-show
HEY! LISTEN
Wonder if it's fair to leave my home
Way down beneath your reach
Stay in here forever now
What did all the worlders mean by
"Hey, listen please. It's not such a problem now"
But it creeps
In your wicked hours, they'll get you.
I've been deep inside this well for days
Ladder up, the lid replaced.
Stay in here forever now
wonder of the world left my eyes
Maybe the illusions real, when it comes out to haunt you
And it takes a little bit more
Stay your lip or lie.
Hey, I saw your illusion's real
Something in which you love,
shot out
But hey, as long as your illusion's real
be a sin not to situate shut out
Stay your little hours
Stay your lip forever
Stay in here forever
They'll get you
LIGHTER SLEEP
Are you weighed down?
Do ya feel strange?
Are you worn out?
Are you the only thing that you need to change?
Is your light out?
I strain to follow
It takes forever when you’re the only one that you cannot change
A few hours late
Like to take it from the start
But you might fade
If you’re not already gone.
I see myself where I could be
But I’m wrapped up tight and hard to reach
Kept inside your lighter sleep
Against my will
Getting close to let it slide
The less I speak the more I lie
Close enough to disappear beneath your will
The once seen has gone dark now
The truth believes the liar
The reason’s all too clear
The freedom to disappear has gone out, the light expired
The reasons clear
Nothing’s wrong
Just don’t talk to me
I see myself where I could be
But I’m wrapped up tight and hard to reach
Kept inside your lighter sleep
Against my will
Getting close to let it slide
The less i speak the more I lie
Close enough to disappear beneath your will
SURFACE
There’s a light on things that could be much more hidden
Were it all were left up to me, I wouldn't give in
Waiting to see you be a life
It means nothing to me
I can see you're really searching
And you never seem to make it by
Couldn't reach the surface
If you tried
Bet you want these things for free
Just for living
Would’ve had all that you’d need had I given
Waiting to see you be a life
It means nothing to me
I can see you're really searching
And you barely need to make it by
You could reach the surface
but you won’t even try
Waiting to seek
Failed to light
Head on a wall
Felt too right
And all the world’s sage advice
Is still lost on me
CAUGHT IN MAY
Listen to the phone ring calling in
At least now you know you're awake
So get down here and lie in the dirt with me
once more to thank
“I’m almost far away” , you almost say
A moment of hesitation is lost again
A moment caught in May
I’d like to give away
Lay back here again and the seeds eat me
Let’s not repeat that mistake
If I get too far off the lawn and the street meets me, that’s never great
I’d rather see it all from inside
What you counted on
Things you need
Things you need to leave
And it shouldn’t be, but this whole thing never shined enough for me
And we carried on in spite of it
We’re on our way down
I think they’re after me
Unleft well enough alone
Captured by the moment
Listen if the phone rings, don’t give in
Don’t let em know you’re awake
Just get down here and lie in the dirt with me
Once more to thank
I’d rather se it all from inside
What you counted on
Things you need
Things you need to leave
And it shouldn’t be, but this whole thing never shined enough for me
And we carried on in spite of it
We’re on our way down
I think they’re after me
Unleft well enough alone
Captured by the moment
Strings
On a borrowed night
Them and you and I
We had a place to go
We were hid in seams, in an in between
Were no faces show
Then it came to me
It’s not the things you see
It’s what they say when they know you’re gone
We compete, we concede for a real, a real surprise
But we never get surprised
Cuz we know
We just keep on running around on strings
We pattern our way and get through it
Such a put on, but we took the bait
Are our lives stock, planted as still as trees?
Is it true death’s in the air we breathe?
Even if that’s so, the will drives on
Through a get around
Until we get it right
we were cutting time, letting pieces lie
Across our way to go
I was the one inside with the car crash eyes
You wouldn’t know what that’s like
Then it came to me, you always knew that we.
Were taking stars from the back of your sky
We compete, we concede for a real, a real surprise
But we never get surprised
Cuz we know
We just keep on running around on strings
We pattern our way and get through it
Such a put on, but we took the bait
Are our lives stock, planted as still as trees?
Is it true death’s in the air we breathe?
Even oi that’s so, the will drives on
Through a get around
Until we get it right
We almost got away
Got out of the cold
We almost got away
but the past will keep up
We just keep on running around on strings
We pattern our way and get through it
Such a put on, but we took the bait
Are our lives stock, planted as still as trees?
Is it true death’s in the air we breathe?
Even if that’s so, the will drives on
Through a get around
Until we get it right
’Til we get it right
’Til we get it right
Get it right
’Til we get it right
OK
I guess you’ll leave, crowding the world
Dig your zone in the grave
I guess you’ll need free of the world
When all your wants betray your thoughts now
I guess the “we’s” still in the way
You couldn’t help but blame
Basically lived in the window light
Afraid that the man you wanna be is gone
Ok, it’s not your fault
Ok, it’s not your fault again
But then again, I’m not allowed to think when you’re around
Ok, it’s not your fault
Ok, it’s not your fault again
Did I promise sometime, to say ok? ok?
If I have misspoken, you’re free to crack the case
We’ll all leave a life that’s broken
Since there’s so much, so much more
I used to think I was around
I know you couldn’t stay
I Never thought I could be found
Never thought I’d get away
Since you hide the one that is lost now
Ok, it’s not your fault
Ok, it’s not your fault again
Did I promise sometime, to say ok? ok?
If I have misspoken, you’re free to crack the case
We’ll all leave a life that’s broken
We’ll all leave this life unbroken
NO END
If I ever make a sound
Let it be a scream
Let there be no one around
Listening
If forever comes around
Let me grab a seat
Listen, we’ll just beat around
Deep in here, what’s left of me to find
Didn’t need to be seen
And we got it all so wrong
You and me
And lately…
This messed up weather has no end
Each time I fit the scene’s changed
May not ever make amends, but I’m here to see you
Walk in ether
Wish to be
And dying
To bleed
This soul, sound static
What’s left of me, will never let this end survive
What’s left of me, will never let this end survive
Fear will leave you
Push it away
Fear will leave
All this isn’t mine to bear
All this isn’t mine to bear
All this isn’t mine to bear
And even if there’s doubt
Killers waiting
To see
Livers waiting
Deep alone
And
Here lies waiting,
Just to see
How long a wait
It is
