Abyss

when we were still young
out looking for shells
and you pushed your boat out
when i was caught in a swell
and i nearly drowned
in the late evening light
you just kept saying :
"you're alright! you're alright!"
you always knew
just what to say
to pull me back
when i was fading away
and i can be mean sometimes
i don't mean to yell
i wanna be with you
when we get outta this hell
how did we get into this
abyss?
you only talk
when you're asleep
is that what you want us to be?
and i pace around
while you're at the fair
looking for signs
that won't ever be there
how did we get into this
abyss?
how did we get into this?

Honor Roll

honor roll
you were an honorable mention
but you'd just hide in the dark
it was a point of contention
and i thought i should mention
Haley, you deceived me
tried me so completely
Haley, you defeat me
you need to release me
bless your heart
you must still think it matters
what you say to yourself
as you stare up the ladder
as you stare up the
i'd really like to help you out
diffuse the charge and kiss your mouth
you mustn't harbor any doubt
that isn't what this is about
i can't control your idle charm
i get so spun i have to shout
my love for you will not disarm
and you've gotta find your own way out
honor roll
i was an honorable mention
and i was out of control
but i still paid attention
yeah, i still paid attention
i need
you to see me
try me
and believe me
i need
you to see me
try me
and believe me
i'd really like to help you out
diffuse the charge and kiss your mouth
you mustn't harbor any doubt
that isn't what this is about
i can't control your idle charm
i get so spun i have to shout
my love for you will not disarm
and you've gotta find your own way out

Controlled Dive
03:42
|
|||
i walk through the city
bare bones for the committee
and i need to take a five
i'm in a controlled dive
and i've lost most feeling
i'm alone on the ceiling
it's a place where i can thrive
i'm in a controlled dive
i'm a ghost of a fire
of a fighter retired
i'm alone, but i'm alive
in a controlled dive

Canyon
03:38
|
|||
the heart remembers what the mind forgets
in bits
it swallows
so deep that it will only be sipped
in dreams
and i was easiest for you to quit
when you knew
i'd never follow
i just try to pull together the rift
but it's a canyon
and i'm at the bottom of it
it's a canyon
and i'm at the bottom of it
it's a canyon
and i'm at the bottom of it
and it's all your fault
admit it
you hide what you want
but the lies never keep
you take off your mask
then you lay down and weep
and all these random things you speak
your talk is cheap
and boring me
you're a canyon
and i'm at the bottom of it
you're a canyon
and i'm at the bottom of it
you're a canyon
and i'm at the bottom of it
and it's all your fault
admit it

i love you my little lee
if you'd just climb
don't be frightened
all these staircases you see
built so we could talk to titans
we are going nowhere fast
we are going nowhere
if you'd just wake up and see
this love i have, my little lee
i am burdened cause i miss you
would you finally release me?
we are going nowhere
we are going nowhere
and if you want to
i think you should
i love you still
you knew i would
the last i saw you, little lee
we drove our car into the sea
you just looked at me and smiled
i have never been more happy
are we going nowhere?
are we going nowhere?
and if you want to
i think you should
i love you still
you knew i would
are we going nowhere?

Get Got

what if life is just a game?
i guess it is to certain men
who think not everyone's the same
they who live by cool and what's the trend
they who live by killing to pretend
that life is a game you can win
but what if death is just the end?
what if life is all we get?
what if life is just a dream
and someday we wake up in hell
no one to know there but ourselves
i don't even know him too well
and the afterlife is just a hope
not a hoax, but still just chances
so talk to everyone you can
and try to remember all your dances
cause what if death is just the end?
what if life is all we've got?

Leave
03:34
|

i'm taking a red line
and ain't it a blast?
i'm a last resort
so you can relax
cause if i even tried
if i even tried
you'd ignore it
my hands were untied
i had held her once before
and there as she cried
i won't leave her anymore
a light through the window
i watch the earth pass
you are the one dear
i know has my back
and if i even tried
if i even tried
you'd ignore it
my hands were untied
i had held her once before
and there as she cried
i won't leave her anymore

All The Angry Youth
03:45
|

all the angry youth
were shaking on the gates
when i saw her arrive
on the back of a bike
as she turned to move
i think she smiled at me
and the fire and light
lit up like a light-brite
and i saw in her eyes
some old Roman disguise
i never knew a rebel i could get close to
it's hard enough being a spy
when she could never know that i was on her side
she could never know that i was on her side
and on my evening route
i saw her in the square
with a bat in her hand
looking off into nowhere land
and all the angry youth
they had gone to bed
but one rebel remained
not to be contained
her beating heart rang
and some part of me changed
i never knew a rebel i could get close to
you know it's hard enough being a spy
when she could never know that i was on her side
she could never know that i was on her side

Sara(h)

sara(h) pulls light
from darkened skies
she walks
light flickers down
and it flows
into the ground
sara(h)'s far away
i only speak to her on birthdays
she knows just what i see
all she's got to do is ask me

Drown The Truck
03:04
|
|||
i know what i'm gonna do
i'm gonna drown the truck
it's just a memory of you
i think that it's bad luck
i think that it's bad luck
it sits at the top of the drive
i think you left it there to spite me
and it is no surprise
you didn't even leave me a key
you didn't even leave me a key
and you are what you ain't
if what you is
is a fake
and you aren't who you say
because none of us are
i gotta get rid of that truck
it eats away at me
i want to be afraid
but i'm afraid to be
i am afraid to be

Rain Down
04:10
|

i don't wanna have to have today
in my memory
i don't wanna write it down
at all
and i've been in a castle
and i've worked in the mud
but ain't nothing i've seen
is gonna stop the flood
it's gonna rain down
whenever it wants to
it's just gonna rain down
whenever it wants to
and i don't wanna have to call you up
to hear you
and i don't need no second guess
at all
and i waited to meet you
and you finally called
you said you think that you thought
we should not get involved
you know it's gonna rain down
whenever it wants to
it's just gonna rain down
whenever it wants to
when i look
i try to find
if you've found a place to hide
you're probably gone
and it's probably wise
cause the waters rise and rise and rise
it's gonna rain down
whenever it wants to
it's just gonna rain down
whenever it wants to
it's just gonna rain down
whenever it wants to
it's just gonna rain down
whenever it wants to
you know?
