Fall Away
05:59
|

The long high stakes back home
I’ll try
'Til it's gone my way
I'm sure
You can't survive this pace
The floor will fall away
Again and again
Until we find the right place
For us all
The long high stakes back home
I'll shake
'Til it falls my way
I'm sure
I can't survive this fate
All we love
Will cave if we're shook

Bend
04:36
|

Who am I to say that we can never win?
Break you down with reasons
That snuff out all last hope
Who am I to say that we can't love again
Force my indecision
Yet I waste my time
On a bend
Sinking ever deeper
But you will never waste my time
You are not a waste of time
You're head spinning
Who am I to say you can't come home again?
Force us into distance
To stretch ou tmy time
Hoping for the courage to release your mind
Soaking my liver
Oh sweet karma
Your dare me to lose
Hide away in my abuse
Hide away the truth

Ash and Grey
05:35
|

First you stare in my soul
Then you bury my name
Careful not to say no in words
Instead you crush all that I've known
Please put to bed
Plans to invent
A new sound to abuse
It was never good enough
Don't fight the truth
How dare you say
Why don't you feel safe
First you stare in my soul
Then you bury my name
Never thought you would stoop so low
Guess I will have to share the blame
For this loss
A dreamer's cost
Is to watch it burn
In your heart
Knowing it won't return

Fool's Choice
05:07
|
|||
It's a fool's choice to let you leave
So sweet with a mean streak
It's a fool's choice to stay to see
Our poison destroy our peace
It's a fool's choice to let you steal
My beauty with the bitter air
It's a fool's choice to beg to feel
The pull of a stranger's stare
It's the need to touch
The fights that draw the cops
The sleep we lost
In lust
We bury the cost
If what you say is true
I’ll have to let you go
We can't run
Fast enough

Howl
04:54
|
|||
It's a sour deal for me
To fan the fall out
To bleed a good heart
To steal alone
Are you waiting for the final call?
Before you breathe alone
You are the truth
And I gave you away
One dim light
Is all it takes to trade away
For a fake
A hoax of my design
A sham for me to lose my gamble on
I can hear it spin from me
As I follow down a steep path
Marked with sharp holds
Am I waiting for the final blow?
A violent peace
A bruise to show
And I know you will stay
While I'm gone

Guilt
03:38
|
|||
You know I never feel nothing,
Nothing but guilt
You want to wind me up just to watch me fall
Oh I can't blame you
You know I never feel nothing,
Nothing but guilt
When our fuse runs down, we squeeze more time
To hold, be still, embrace the calm
Before we spill and ignite our hearts
You want to feel as if nothing's wrong
Well time heals you
You always feel let down
Oh I carry my part
With a cold stare, crooked smile
You end our time
With a sweet "fuck you"
You know I never feel nothing,
Nothing but guilt
When the sand runs out, there is no time
To hold, be still, embrace the calm
We end so swift no heart left to try
Don't you worry I've been losing my mind
Don't you worry I'll lose you in time

Cherry
06:08
|

Time will never let us run
From the weight
The burden of this love
Time will never make a sound
As you strangle, stab, it will always come
How can I make myself sharp
So I can cut you off true
Reset after each blow to the head
The haze of memories clouded blue
We don't change
Keep pretending we're happy
Happy for cameras
Happy for what?
We hide in cherry coloured shame
Have we given up?
Do we stop?
Are we holding on until the last drop
Cut loose, sleep around and watch us decay
Our feet cemented in vain
We hold on
We're both to blame

Stay
04:53
|
|||
No one gives it away
Trust me I've made my share of mistakes
Empty promises
Cold hard lies
Haunting me 'til this day
No one gives it away
Trust me I've made my share of mistakes
Empty bottles
Cold white lines
Haunting me 'til this day
No one
No one will find out
No one
No one will stay
