Dead End World
04:02

Left by the road
This gathering seems so strange to me
Don't breathe it in, it's what your told
The ends lay shattered like dreams
Fading faces as I sleep
Some quiet place where we could meet
This will not be all I thought it would
Come in close and greet this dead end world
So can you see further than I could?
Hold me close and be my dead end world
Lost in the rain
I'm starting to dissolve before I can speak
Caving in
This getaway swallowed by the sea
Fading faces as I sleep
Some quiet place where we could meet
This will not be all I thought it would
Come in close and greet this dead end world
So can you see further than I could?
Hold me close and be my dead end world
Weather starts to change, eyes turn to stone
No longer young and on your own
Clawing at the walls, a favorite game
All these big ideas to spell your name

The day is burning with a waiting fear
How will you find a way out?
A death grip, we start to sway
Lift your feet and let the world go
Through glass the world is sailing
Torn up Sunday's best
It's over when you come back down
It's over when you chase it
Sidelined, looking for a way out
You were never gonna win here anyway
Dark skies, blind red eyes
Wondering who you'll be on the other side
Through glass the world is sailing
Here we came to rest
It's over when you come back down
It's over when you chase it
I'm sure it still hurts
(It's over when you come back down)
It's all for nothing on a Sunday morning
They say he did it for love
I think he was confused
Searching for an outlet to abuse
It's over when you come back down
It's over when you come back down
It's over when you come back down
It's over when you chase it

Imitate what's left behind
Turning back to the fold
It's deceiving where to find shade for a burning soul
Act so much bigger than what's between you and me
Don't speak
Not yet
Don't speak
I'll shed
How big of me
To lay down at your feet
It's all I want to do
Give no regard to my suffering
Out of your head today
The new guard wavering
Through sunlight you hesitate
As good as trembling
Don't speak
Not yet
Don't speak
I'll shed
How big of me
To lay down at your feet
It's all I want to do
Give no regard to my suffering
I'll shed my skin
I'll shed my skin
I'll shed my skin
I'll shed my skin

Common Thief
04:41
|

We're coming close to a total attack
I'm in over my head, over my head
Call it quits, he's been stabbed in the back
Was it something I said as I crawled out of bed?
Century of self
Modern man excels in the way he's left on display
It's a cold type of world
There's no turning back
I'm a coward but I like the way
This acid rain is starting to taste
You're pointing fingers like I know the truth
To move would be the death of you
Melted down and fed to the maid
Shout down a well, secrets to tell
Favorite tie and the sound of defeat
Everybody stay down, yeah, you're all just like me
I'm a coward but I like the way
This acid rain is starting to taste
You're pointing fingers like I know the truth
To move would be the death of you
Everybody's a common thief
Especially when it comes to me
If life's about all the lies we need
What's the point of cleaning out your teeth?
It's a cold type of world
It's a cold type of world

Reverie
03:44
|

In the early morning
The tide rolls in again
I wish I could stop it
As it's always on my mind
It's a string on my finger
Of all that's left behind
What is there left to say
As I let us fade away?
In the early morning
The tide rolls in again
It grazes me gently
And brings me back to then
Let the current take me
Let the current take me back there
Let the current take me back there now
Let me the current take me

Sifting through the last remains
Watching as you start to wake
Floating to the sky
Like some new type of bird
Destroy this ringing in my head
It was never a part of me
Followed you to this edge
Now I want to be set free
Perspectives slightly out of reach
This time they'll never catch me
Now that I've seen the sky
There's nothing in my way
To the source again
There never is an end
To the source again
There never is an end
Destroy this ringing in my head
It was never a part of me
Followed you to this edge
Now I want to be set free

Bedhead

From the window of an all black car
I watched you fade like a sleeping scar
And I just don't know, what did I expect
From the way you held your head so high
A minute mile and the town below
If they were asking, I won't tell a soul
Oh I just don't know, what did I forget
From the way you held your head so high
You found a way
To escape when
The sun was in your eyes
Now it's dark out
And they're still asking
Does it feel like a lie
You want to play me out
Blame it all on my one-track mind
Someday you'll come around
And if not, just stay stuck in my side
You want to play me out
You want a lesson learned
You want a strong goodbye
As you watched me crawl on the floor
Would it kill you if I don't want anything more
Than a ride home

Ritual
05:27
|

On the night I caught you breaking in
I was ashamed to notice you
Through the web you were tangled in
I knew there'd be use no use
Yeah, we all come crumbling
When a light's forced in our eye
Yeah, you're always crumbling
It came as no surprise
I know the ritual
Where I design my private end
The prints on the glass
Won't obscure just who you've been
Arms outstretched, a scene unfamiliar
I hear you now in a fit two floors below
It all goes fading out
I forgot how sweet your voice could be
When something goes your way
Yeah, I know I'm not the only one
With your ghost ringing in my ear
Yeah, I know I'm not the only one
Still stuck right here
I know the ritual
Where I design my private end
The prints on the glass
Won't obscure just who you've been
Someday when I finally settle down
I will keep you on display
To remind me how to love
Each time I wipe the dust way

Today they finally caught up to me
On the floor where the light won't bend
That's just the way my hammer falls
With wounds I thought would mend
If the sun won't rise for all but them
Then we'll stray down
To the place where the god's are all but dead
Content to drown
I search for life in the blank divide
Reflections I knew so well
That's just the way my hammer falls
I felt the earth give in
I am the fear beyond the shroud
The whisper etched on the wall
That's the way my hammer falls
That's just the weight of it all
If the sun won't rise for all but them
Then we'll stray down
To the place where the god's are all but dead
Content to drown
In the end I was the same
The legend of my offering
Bled dry as a way to explain
All the dirt left in the way
Time, like a driving stake
Where nothing's changed and nothing's new
They keep the dead ones underground
Where nothing's changed and nothing's new
There's nothing's changed and nothing new
There's nothing's changed and nothing new
There's nothing's changed, nothing new

Beside Yourself
06:16
|
|||
You've lost your grip
And it's pulled you in
You struggle to find some peace of mind
Wishing it was all behind
Close the door to keep it all confined to you
Playing games which you can't win
Tossing in your sleep again
If you say you want it
Why can't you seize the habit?
Heavy head in hands, failing tall demands
That nobody could understand
Close the door to keep it all confined to you
Close the door to keep it all confined to you
Playing games which you can't win
Tossing in your sleep again
In the darkness, sorrow blooms
Let some light inside your room
If you say you want it
Why can't you seize the habit?
You struggle to find some peace of mind
Wishing it was all behind
Wishing it was all behind
Wishing it was all behind
Wishing it was all behind
Wishing it was all behind
