Hurry up
Time's too quick
Hurry up
Hurry up
I can't stop
The taste has been too sweet
I can't stop
It's too late
The damage is done
It's too late
It's too late
Can you read me now?
Can you read me now?
Can you read me now?
Can you leave me?
Weren't those the right things to say?
I guess not - I guess not.
I taste the cold.
It's no longer there.
What once was just was.
Forget me nots, stolen thoughts.
We've tried too hard, just forget me now.
Just in flashes, dimly flashes
Our tears have trickled down to our knees
Around the constant, no escape from light
Trapped in corners, something to cease.
Can you read me now?
Can you read me now?
Can you read me now?
Can you leave me?
Where does she start?
Where do I stop?
Questioning whereabouts,
Stumbling through the dark.
Taste the light,
Taste like gold.
Oh, it sticks in your throat.
Simple things, I lost her face,
Trying to forget my place.
Sit right down, stand back up.
You think too much for what you've done.
Find a way to leave it now.
Read the tide,
Can you leave me now?
Can you leave me now?
Can you leave me now?
Can you leave me now?

The witches want to see if I can float
Let the waters wrap in, an indestructible boat.
Washed off the calmness, return back to normal.
Empty seconds tick to decide on the saunter.
Your words get to where water can't
Sordid ladders to nowhere, a taste of success.
I've lost mornings and the nights to my appetite
Twist my tongue, make sure it comes out right.
I can feel the honesty
Pushed spit from your teeth
Coat me in the truth,
I'll still be wrung out.
I can do you a favour,
Tell you I love you.
You run with your legs
I run with my mouth.
I want to hang onto your ocean
Feel my hands grip at every wave
The beads of sweat, cold at every corner
Every step along the way
I can feel the honesty
Pushed spit from your teeth
Coat me in the truth,
I'll still be wrung out.
I can do you a favour,
Tell you I love you.
You run with your legs
I run with my mouth.

I can love you in secret
Find middle ground with you
Laying in our bed
Wait for the ceiling to crash through
It never did
Drunken monologues
Swollen in size
Becoming our own response
Stolen inside
If time is relative, then we're all wasting time
We've run along our colours, built up by the mass
You say that you love me through rose tinted glass
Who knew it'd be that quick
For the tears to evolve from wit?
The trap has had enough of it
The silence deafens and snaps
Meet me at high noon
We're caught on the same tracks
Holding onto nothing, we've lost our grip
Tiny submarines in our vessels, we've gone soft
You say that love me, why don't you fuck off?

The Sky is Falling

The point has been proven again.
What started too sharp turns dull by the end.
I set my sights out but they're waning again.
What left us here has surely ran.
Just keep your disdain inside,
And we can tell everyone we tried.
Collapsed lungs ask you for breath.
Sweeter now than when they blamed you for the rest.
We'll meet somewhere, take another step.
Same time, same place to try this again?
I'm searching for the ground for our souls to meet.
I've always worn a wolves mask, but underneath I'm a sheep.
You said there's still more time, that hope always persists.
Cacophonous tones respond too quick.
I guess that's it.

Strangers to Ourselves

Who would have thought you would've ended friendships with the people you've become?
Digging past the surface with nowhere left to be dug
Exchanges of shrugs, "I hope you understand", the words are numb
Through the what if's, maybes, and reruns
Tampered with the escape route
The lantern leads us into the dark
I'll burn out soon
It's getting too real, we need something to dilute
I've fallen short of the mark
I've fallen through
I've fallen through
(I guess we'll just have to ride this winter out)
You were sitting on the carpet looking at some old photos
I was looking at you looking at a picture of me
You forced a smile as tears hugged your cheeks
My bones were stone as you rolled up in grief
Bittersweet lips coated in wine and coffee
"Do you remember when we were happy?"
"No, I don't"
I don't feel any closer to you
Find a reason not to leave
With my head on the ground under yours
It gets harder and harder to breathe
Skipping stones sinking
The loss of identity
There's no one left to police me anymore
I'm following the enemy

Viciously swimming in circles, disaster an old friend of mine
Trying to play off a shit streak, it only adds to a bad time
Got lost in hopes and dreams, in them, there's nothing left to find.
Realigning our ideas, now I remain undefined
Trapped in Medusa's glow, you're stone before the very first words
Waiting for confrontation, writhing around like a worm
The hours and months, they all feel the same. The vision is horrid and blurred.
You've broken my nose, but we still wait out, for the witch to burn.
It's quite ambitious how we make our moves.
A storm can only carry us so smooth
Two heads can't figure it out
Two snakes can't figure it out
I'm trying to see it how you're trying to see it, but I can't see you if you can't see me.

There is a Happy Land

It'll all be alright.
It'll all be all wrong.
That's life,
Twisting and turning down the road of fear
That's called nowhere, my dear
When you close your eyes,
And open them up,
To the pounding of your guts and her smile, her smile.
It'll all be alright, It'll all be all wrong.
It'll all be alright, It'll all be all wrong.
And the rain has its words,
That flow like the wind
And it don't know which way to go,
Or how it became so thinned.
And the crowded rooms tantalize,
Thoughts of them to visualize
Had a thought out the front door,
But the door closed on the way out.
And my head starts to run, but it's moving too quick,
With an inkling of dread and self doubt.
Like a rat running a race to be put back to start,
Trying to find its way out.
It'll all be alright.
It'll all be all wrong.
That's life,
Twisting and turning down the road of fear
That's called nowhere, my dear
When you close your eyes,
And open them up,
To the pounding of your guts and her smile, her smile.
It'll all be alright, It'll all be all wrong.
It'll all be alright, It'll all be all wrong.
I want to see you in my dreams,
But far off, you're falling from the sky
If words could catch you, you'd crash into these arms of mine.
The thrill of the unexpected, what better way to plan
There's love to find when it's in supply, but never when in demand.
And we'll never be pleased,
We're all rats and disease.
And it's pulling me back,
I don't want to go back.
It'll all be alright.
It'll all be all wrong.
That's life,
Twisting and turning down the road of fear
That's called nowhere, my dear
When you close your eyes,
And open them up,
To the pounding of your guts and her smile, her smile.
It'll all be alright, It'll all be all wrong.
It'll all be alright, It'll all be all wrong.

This Must be the Place

My mind is flooded
The new is abused
Reading a dead man's lifeline,
So little to view
The brain is filtered
There's nothing to do
I can list all of the medicines,
But which ones to choose?
What if that is just that?
We're all born to lose?
Dissatisfaction's what we're good at,
A little bitter to dampen the blues.
We're tailing swallows, chained to the skies we fly.
Hold your head up in your hands so high
Maybe I'm just tired of feeling all the use
Scrape your knee and cover up the blues
What if that is just that?
We're all born to lose?
Dissatisfaction's what we're good at,
A little bitter to dampen the blues.
My mind is flooded
The news is abused
Reading a deadman's lifeline
So little to view
The dream is over
The day is anew
Play it over in your head,
The night is due
Her smile is scattered
It's something to lose
I can list all of the medicines,
But which ones to choose?

Into the Floods

Meet me in the floods
Hold onto my breath
Sink into the deep
Circling the depths
I thought I saw you disappear
I thought I lost you - When did you go clear?
Sink into the white,
Blend in clouded eyes.
Hide in tricks of light,
Disguised in our own confines
Slowly we'll fade into molding light.
Slowly we'll fade, through the sea at night.
I thought I saw you.
Hold me in light.
I thought I lost you.
Fading out of sight.
Meet me in the floods
