Crush Me in Your Wake
04:48

Another failure, not if, but when
and I ask, is it worth it again?
I try to fly but I only fall
I try to walk but I only crawl
No light to guide and no ties to bind
and I ask, will you save me this time?
'cause at this point I've got nothing left
as you could have guessed
so now, tell me the rest
All will be revealed
Written in the stars
Written in the scars
Never fully sealed
HEY!
Standing out in the falling rain
Can I ask, what's you're personal pain?
She said, "I'm just trying to clean these wounds,
if they don't close soon, then they'll eat me too."
Don't go thinkin' 'bout the past again,
'cause I know it's been on your mind
Well there's no future from the place I stand
so if you can, climb off your mountain again
And see nothing lasts forever
so she said:
"Lay my arms down by my side,
I'm as good as dead"
Hold me closer for I fear the end is coming near
and I don't know what I'd do if you left me here
Past this point I don't believe there's anything to see
Past this point, I don't think I believe
'Cause I've been swimming far too long without a place to go
Except the soothing kiss of the undertow
It's getting darker, there's no telling when this storm will break
If you're leaving, crush me in your wake
I always thought I'd need a savior,
but no one arrived
I always thought I'd need a savior
once the magic died
I always thought I'd need a savior
with a cleansing kiss
I thought I'd ask to be saved,
but not like this
Hold me closer for I fear the end is coming near
and I don't know what I'd do if you left me here
Past this point I don't believe there's anything to see
Past this point, I don't think I believe
'Cause I've been swimming far too long without a place to go
Except the soothing kiss of the undertow
It's getting darker, there's no telling when this storm will break
If you're leaving, crush me in your wake

Among the Ghosts
03:21

Looks like I got a little story to tell
About the way things were
before this all packed up
and went straight to hell
and said I'd see you there
We were waiting for the pieces to fall
Just like we knew they would
But I think the "how" surprised us all
When there was nothing we could save
And if I said that I loved you again
Would that make it right?
Could we both believe it
or just pretend??
So that we're not alone tonight
In all the time I'd lost
I never figured out the cost
of living here among the ghosts
and searching for what I miss most
How easy it can be to go
and fall in love with memories
If you find out, then let me know
if what I miss is you or me
'Cause either way I'd like it back
But I think it's already gone...
We've gone too far to turn back now
and even if we could, I don't know how
and I don't think I'm willing to learn
so I'll take my chances and let this burn

Myopic

It's all a matter of circumstance
You'll understand when the morning comes
It doesn't hurt you if you think it can't
You'll understand when the moment's done
That it's not about the "who fucked who"
When it's plain to see that I fucked you
But now the moment's passed, so away I go
Close your eyes and you'll never know
How deep the cut, how wide the scar
That you're a little more lost than you think you are
But you can't have it all and you still have you health
Just keep telling yourself that...
It doesn't hurt, doesn't hurt, doesn't hurt...
Say it just like it's true
Everyone will believe it, but can you?
If I go, how far would you follow?
And if I let you, how far would you lead?
Do you feel deep down that there is no tomorrow?
Or is a promise all that you need?
Then don't listen if it's ringing hollow
If you don't want to look then close your eyes
'Cause you don't have to believe, you just have to swallow
You'd be surprised what naivete buys
So now the game's in play
and the ornament of setting just falls away...
But now you've figured it out
so you know what it means
and you disregard the things you've seen
Because where this may lead
What this may be
Just can't break like reality
Can you believe it?
If I go, how far would you follow?
And if I let you, how far would you lead?
Do you feel deep down that there is no tomorrow?
Or is a promise all that you need?
Then don't listen if it's ringing hollow
If you don't want to look then close your eyes
'Cause you don't have to believe, you just have to swallow
You'd be surprised what naivete buys

Dead All Along
04:06

While I don't know what's holding this together
I can find what will tear it apart
but I guess that's easy,
because structure we have to be taught
but we're in love with destruction right from the start
I guess it's possible that this all could be saved
But I wouldn't bet that it happens today
Either way, it's none of my concern
We didn't come to pay our respects
We came to watch it burn
Sometimes I like to pretend
That the twist at the end
isn't that we were dead all along
we were just wrong
and the moment simply passed
and then we moved on too fast
I guess there's a chance that everything's fine
and all the troubles were in my mind
but it's hard to see the light when you're down this low
so if you find a better way, then let me know
'cause I don't know what I would do
if everything I touched didn't turn into
the wreckage you see in my wake
'cause if I didn't make trouble,
what else would I make
You see,
I can't say that I believe in the devil
but I think he might believe in me
I'd love to tell him to go,
but he really seems to enjoy the show
All he does is laugh throughout his stay
until the end, when all he can do is say:
"Is this what you wanted?
It's okay to say no.
But that doesn't mean that
it will change a goddamn thing
about how this goes.
Is this what you asked for?
If it is, then there's something wrong
Why don't you let it go?
'Cause from what I know,
this one is too far gone"

Watching a Car Crash
04:05

I want to stay right here forever
and let the pieces fall where they may
Wouldn't it be great to suffocate together?
As long as it doesn't change a thing
But you know you don't have to stay
and at any point, you could walk away
It's safer here, doing as you're told
than it ever could be out there
in the cold
Is this where we were all waiting to be lead?
As hollow as the holes where we'll rest our heads
Tell me something to make this go away
Or sell me something to make it all okay
I'd gladly throw away my tomorrows
to take the edge off of today
Why you wish to hold onto this
is far beyond my grasp
Because nothing new will be coming through
until you let this past
But I guess you found it's easier
to lie amongst the dirt
because after all, nobody thinks
and no one gets hurt
The road to nowhere is coming up fast
and consequence of the way you took
its not like watching a car crash
its like watching someone crash
just to make sure you look

Hand of God

I think we're going down to were
no god could save us now
but then do you think that we were really
all that close to divinity?
Maybe you're a dreamer
who still sees the stars at night
and I'm the bitter one
looking up at the afterglow of long dead light
To all the gods who we've ever prayed
We could really use one of you today
But if your not there, then it's okay
We didn't really expect you anyway
My bones will lie among the waste
My flesh will fall away
Just throw the dirt upon my chest
and these ruins will be my grave
Or throw my ashes to the wind
Cast my bones into the waves
Already lost and there I'll stay
Where no hand of god could ever save
My bones will lie among the waste
My flesh will fall away
Just throw the dirt upon my chest
and these ruins will be my grave
Or throw my ashes to the wind
Cast my bones into the waves
Already lost and there I'll stay
Where no hand of god could ever save

As Long as it Hurts
03:50

I swear I've seen that look before
Though I can't remember what it's done
It's moments like this that we later refer to
As mistake number one
Everything that came before
has lead to where we are
and we couldn't have known our limits
until we went too far
So tell me everything
You wish you didn't know
and I will find a place
for all those things to go
and if you want 'em back
then you don't say a word
because they'll always be there
as long as it hurts
The facade starts to go
and the cracks start to show
and once you've seen the strings
it's just so sad
You can't block them out again
Congratulations,
You've been had!
A lie goes down much easier
with someone else to tell it
Now take a good look in the mirror
and be sure to sell it
So tell me everything
You wish you didn't know
and I will find a place
for all those things to go
and if you want 'em back
then you don't say a word
because they'll always be there
as long as it hurts

Ephemera

It's not that I don't know what to say
I just don't know how to say it
I close my eyes to fall asleep and there you are
There's nothing I can do
My thoughts are filled with you
and every time you're not right here
it's just too far
I guess I must love you
'cause I'm thinking of you
the better part of my day
I know I can't hide it
So why should I fight it?
I know it won't go away
You must understand
that my heart's in your hands
and I hope that you'll treat it right
but it's still worth it
in every way
just to be with you tonight
I'm running in circles
can't tell day from night
it's always oh, so bright
with an angel in your sight
but I'll tell you this:
nothing can bring me down
Except for the moments when
you're not around
I can't eat
I can't sleep
I see you
I feel weak
and I know you don't feel the same
but what can I do, cause I'm in love with you
so I guess I'll just play your game
You must understand
that my heart's in your hands
and that's more than you can say
because, after all, you just put up that wall
and now you're walking away
Don't let it end like this
Without you
I don't know what I'd do
Without you
I just don't know
I want you, I need you
I swear I won't leave you
I hope that you'll do the same
Didn't think it would go this far
but, you know, here we are
why must we play this game?
Don't let it end like this
Why do we pretend like this?
I don't know, I don't know

Goodnight My Love
03:13
|

Tell me that you love me
That's all I need to hear
Tell me that you'll never leave
and always want me near
Tell me that you need me
that's all you have to say
Tell me I'm your everything
and remember me this way
God knows I'll remember you
I don't have a choice
The sparkle in your eyes
and the angels in your voice
They make it sound so easy
the way they say "let it go"
but they don't understand that we have
more than they'll ever know
The sweet nothings we whispered together
and how you said you'd love me forever
then you stopped one day like you just forgot
oh, but I did not
So place your head upon my chest
as I wrap my hands around your neck
Tonight we rest with the stars above
Goodnight, my love

Echoes and Silence
04:47
|
|||

I guess it all comes back again
whether you want it or not
all the things you wish you weren't
and all that you forgot
But as time goes on and distance grows
it gets easier or so I'm told
I wouldn't know
I'm not much for letting go
So lay with me just one more time
Kill the lights and close the blinds
and we'll pretend to rest in peace
'til the shadows die and the echoes cease
I swear I'd throw it all away
if I knew it wouldn't come back some day
but as the morning comes
and it's not unsaid
and it's not undone
as I rest my head tonight
may I never see the light
And in your hour of violent need
your god has turned up dead
Now we'll see if you can swim
in the rivers that you bled
Everything is different now
and yes, that makes you wrong
you may have been broken down
but at least then you belonged
Silence come and be my friend
because these echoes never end
