Daydream

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

Crystal Balls
03:32
|

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

Behind the Glass
04:04
|

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

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

Fairy Tale Lies
03:17
|

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

Your Stronger Side
04:24
|

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

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

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
