Daydream 03:36
You would be the first I see I will wear your name Here inside it spins around Let it out, you let it out this far I’m up in this room for weeks I’ve got many more There’s no beauty in this place Summon me, you summon me this far Dreamed the dream that you are here The things I feel are so unclear The chatter here I’ve found Locked only in a daydream I never wanted more than anybody out there But something went wrong I never saw it coming lights down Holy mouths won’t ask you to forgive Some righteous kneel before Him It’s always cold in here But I can’t seem to shiver I never wanted more than anybody out there But something went wrong I never saw it coming lights down Which one of us will decide?

Release 03:48
We have watched how they kill Captured in gross detail Stand so fixed at attention All within arm’s reach You failed to see it coming Wish you had that peace now They say you laid it on the line We don’t hold it like All the others can Candles will fire again I breathe mine I breathe my breaks
3.
We still breathe when nothing’s left We look in crystal balls We still reach for something shelved Finally seeing clear One at a time Wicked walls You messed around and caught yourself Falling fast asleep I can’t wait until they lock us in You just can’t think that way Thought these walls were trying to speak Soft light dims at night You bend down and kiss the ground I know you’re feeling the same way One at a time Wicked walls Standing on the edge I’m seen looking down Thought they’d never let me go or burn out Turn my back to what I thought was sacred There are days before it all starts over Don’t put graves on top of the sand Don’t wish for more than you can handle Seen you mimic moves you’ve sure got it down Don’t walk alone when you can’t stop shaking One at a time Wicked Walls We cast out Blinded Fall in Fall behind
4.
I saw your form behind the glass (Your mouth moving, eyes shining) Didn’t look real but here we are (Put it in my lungs in plain view) You had tears, I forced mine in (My mind is slipping on the sidewalk) These hours are not real, more dense than you think (Jump inside and take a ride with me) I don’t breathe inside Your hands left I plead for deep sleep, mark off the days (I will make it better and rounded) Chariots kicking up swirls in the dust (Don’t want you breathing cold air) Can’t touch anyone, shouldn’t be here (Don’t want you alone on sharp nights) Feel the pain in my chest, touching the glass (Your eyes shining , mouth moving) I don’t breathe inside Your hands left

Kin 03:39
Familiar voices seem to be telling to let go Will there be a price to pay for being under spells? I’m taking a ride past midnight I’m taking a ride to somewhere strange And always feeling longing There are places where we can deliver ourselves Tired of being bothered here but days are almost done Fill up your hands and trace lines Fill up your hands and open up While always feeling longing That was a long time ago Just a few more days One step after the other Blinded by your hope Rest at the place where you kneel I’m always feeling longing

Swept 03:56
Who’s to say when I’m away it shrinks or builds or falls apart? All the men look outside Trained their eyes despite the wear The part of that doesn’t agree Turned around You picked me up by a thought By a thought you wrapped around me All the men look outside Changed my mind Picked me up by a thought By a thought you wrapped around me Got caught standing on the edge of the lawn Been put down into the cowardly lie Got caught stealing from the edge of the lawn Been struck down into the face of the lie I don’t look there, between your eyes Find luck there won’t happen twice I’m so scared I don’t look there Waves that swept come standing still
7.
I turned around when your tears echoed off the walls I regret nothing more then not touching you one last time There was nothing I could say I don’t care if I’ve never written a song like this I don’t care if you skip right over these lines There was nothing I could say I should have mouthed those words But I didn’t now I should There was nothing I could say Each time you say it save it until it has more worth You can still take my words just don’t cast me to the lion’s den I can still hear your tears echoing off those walls Each time you say it save it until it has more worth. There was nothing I could say I should have mouthed those words But I didn’t now I should There was nothing I could say
8.
Cradling someone free Does little help Live so dangerously Dwindling what it takes To get by easy So much shame Only you make me strong Lift up boulders Cause I’m so weak Struggle just to carry on Forget about it This year came out wrong Take it on yourself It’s crumbling I know myself So dry, so hot, so thirsty No water, no water It’s crumbling, no weather No water, no water My nothing is something No water, no water
9.
Accident 03:33
Days will slip into the darkroom Pages I read when only a child Minutes turned hours and I lost count Each one pushing up above us You will change This new day There’s no room left for anything else So many things left to choose from I don’t feel like I have control Is there a way that we can go back To the place where we left off? We will change This new day There’s no room left for anyone else Mediocre flames burn soft Find that fire left something strange I would give it all up to have that one night back Mediocre flames burn soft Find that fire left something strange

Grapevines 03:48
Live by the hours they seem not to blossom You ran the million miles and quickly lost them Not to cause them too much pain Not cause them to disdain Live by the hours they seem not to blossom A coma away from being lost and tired Something tells you to take a walk on fire Tripped you up into the pyre Blocked you in and showed the liar A coma away from being lost and tired I have destroyed the day All of my fruit has seemed to rot
