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 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.

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.

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.

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?

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
