So I want to say that I told you so much I can’t understand I’ll never know Go go go, tell me when I can slip away and rue the day again I know you won’t Let’s just say that I feel so much better now It fades away but I can see forever My kingdom come a loaded gun so safe and sound I’ve come undone but I can see it all Time, I don’t know what it means to me when we start to scream again I want to know Why, peel away to oblivion and spiral down again until I’m low Let’s just say that I feel so much better now It fades away but I can see forever My kingdom come a loaded gun so safe and sound I’ve come undone but I can see it all It’s taking over and all I can do is try again Pulling me lower and into a tedium I slide It’s getting closer, and it’s all too much, too much Let’s just say that I feel so much better now It fades away but I can see forever My kingdom come a loaded gun so safe and sound I’ve come undone but I can see it all

Let’s go riding somewhere Unhinged but not yet free Let’s walk it back so you can pass off All the things you said to me Let’s take all the passions Let’s take all their scenes And take it back so you can laugh at Everything that sets you free But I don’t even know, what any of this means When you’ve sharpened the way with the things you say You can cut me off at the seams Meet me at the station Meet me at the dawn If they’d only meet me halfway house They’d see I’m moving on Take it at face value When your wishlist falls apart And when your whole world just comes crashing down But you know that it’s a start But I don’t even know, what any of this means When you’ve sharpened the way with the things you say You can cut me off at the seams I’m drifting off and into space Lost within and out of place I see my hands, they take this shape, and float away I don’t even know, what any of this means When you’ve sharpened the way with the things you say You can cut me off at the seams

On My Mark 03:22
Left field angels went so low Nicked their wings on the things I didn’t know But I tried anyway Slept in places I don’t mind Lost my way in the spaces kept inside Then it all slipped away But all the winds and the rain it brings Won’t wash away all the empty things And all I want is everything to start On my mark I found Suzette but she wouldn’t die Her spirit’s let me go like an angry bride But she wouldn’t float away It’s all fucked up nowhere to go She raised a glass for the words we never spoke And I died on the way But all the winds and the rain it brings Won’t wash away all the empty things And all I want is everything to start On my mark It left me cold with nowhere to hide And I don’t know what’s left to decide Frozen still with an aching spine sublime But all the winds and the rain it brings Won’t wash away all the empty things And all I want is everything to start On my mark

Wired 03:57
My glasses shattered it never mattered with the things I can’t unsee I scorched the liars and burned my tires But I still understand it’s all on me Won’t let me go these things I know won’t give me air to breathe You found your rage so refined with age But I still understand it’s all on me They tripped the wires I’m just so tired and I don’t know where I am Flip the switch down at your feet I guess I just can’t sleep an incomplete I still don’t know if I can Untangle all these wires I confess All the solder joints have lost the point without a 60-cycle hum I felled the trees burned all the leaves But I still can’t understand the things I’ve done With electric cables I’m never able and I don’t know what's to come My iPod bleeds all the noise I need But I still can’t understand the things I’ve done They tripped the wires I’m just so tired and I don’t know where I am Flip the switch down at your feet I guess I just can’t sleep an incomplete I still don’t know if I can Untangle all these wires I confess The fuse is blown it’s time to go But I don’t care, don’t need to know Let’s just say that I…here we go They tripped the wires I’m just so tired and I don’t know where I am Flip the switch down at your feet I guess I just can’t sleep an incomplete I still don’t know if I can Untangle all these wires I confess

It’s hard to breathe in here we’re almost out of air Just rationed the oxygen I swear When darkness fills the void and blue skies fall out there It all comes crashing down somewhere We’re left here on the satellite Crashing all the light The satellite comes down tonight The atmosphere is clear there’s daylight left out there But we’re turning blue we’re left nowhere When it all comes raining down we scream but I’m not scared The lightning strikes I just don’t care We’re left here on the satellite Can’t you see the light The satellite falls down tonight Well let me out I know I promise I won’t care Well let me out I know you lost my keys and the spare Left when the wires crossed the daylights cool my glare But you locked away my guns and left me out a la guerre We’re locked here on the satellite You take up all the light The satellite rains down tonight

Bones 03:48
Still waiting, waiting on and on and on But it’s so intense when it makes no sense It’s never gonna come Unwinding, finding everyone is gone When I have no voice but I made my choice and It’s been there all along Let me know, 'cause it comes and goes A new low when it starts to show And it seems so slow When it breaks my bones Escaping, take me to the waking sun And so it goes with these things I’ve sold I know the time has come Left shaking, raining makers on the run When my senses numb and voices come The lines are never done Let me know, 'cause it comes and goes A new low when it starts to show And seems so slow When it breaks my bones They left me there just to memorize While time stands still but you can’t decide I still can’t sleep when I close my eyes And it takes so long but you sympathize and I know Let me know, 'cause it comes and goes A new low when it starts to show And seems so slow When it breaks my bones

Lead the way without the answers One more time around the sun I seize the day and take some chances But I keep on sliding down The next in line with a loaded gun The daydreams lose me when they crash into me I won't shake it off It's so confusing when the lights refuse me And I’ve already lost But you will know my name You save the day but take the long way And lost your way won’t make it back There's no sense driving when I can't stop winding can't stop winding down Just let me fade out to black The daydreams lose me when they crash into me I won't shake it off It's so confusing when the lights refuse me And I’ve already lost But you will know my name These thoughts escape but they’re caught on tape in my brain They won’t erase but I set the pace through this strain When scarabs pinch and pull me down And wires drag me to the ground I’m insane The daydreams lose me when they crash into me I won't shake it off It's so confusing when the lights refuse me And I’ve already lost But you will know my name

Halo 03:07
Yesterday you left me in disguise, with a shadow over my head And I don’t know but I still wonder why I can’t escape all they said I lift my head but it’s still hanging down And I fall away into black They kick and scream and leave you without a sound And I dreamt I clawed my way back Just rip it up to bleed out, and I know it’s so loud When I drop the halo down This time I know you sold out, and it brings me so down When the halo comes around The shadow turned and took me for a ride And it cost me all that I had It paid my way and left me to decide if I want to stay where I am I don’t know what I have left to lose So I decided to leave it alone Shined a light but then we tripped a fuse And I still can’t find my way home Just rip it up to bleed out, and I know it’s so loud When I drop the halo down This time I know you sold out, and it brings me so down When the halo comes around Be careful what you wish for Because it leads to so much more Of all the things that bring you down You memorize the Art of War But you don’t believe in what it’s for Now everything is coming down Just rip it up to bleed out, and I know it’s so loud When I drop the halo down This time I know you sold out, and it brings me so down When the halo comes around

Skyscrapers 04:01
Pages saved the wave of glass last night But we lost our way with pains to make it right It's up for grabs when they pay no tab tonight And now we make our way when the sane have lost their minds In a hundred stories I can reach the sky Just to know that I... Find my way skyscrapers don't you die Steal away you came to make me high With head in hand I made my stand in time While you sharpen up your pen and take what's mine When there’s so much lost we paid the cost in line For years it's gone but there's so much left behind In a hundred stories I can reach the sky Just to know that I... Find my way skyscrapers don't you die Steal away you came to make me high When the daydream falls they failed us all in kind Then the motor stalls the same well I don't mind In a hundred stories I can reach the sky Just to know that I... Find my way skyscrapers don't you die Steal away you came to take me high

Tell me what I see, this spectral muse tries to float away And skip the banks onto the river way To find a place there to hide This creepy dream kept me wide awake, so wide awake but I fall So come with me and we’ll see it all We’ll see it all and we’ll know So let’s go ‘cause there's a vacancy So let me know where I belong Locked away and when it seems so long, know I tried I want to stay but I just don’t know Still stuck inside but now I have to go, with all I’ve known Come away with me, away with me and my anxieties This is all that I will ever need Just the void to mix with an eternity The only heir of insecurity, apparitions drink my blood And take whatever else that they want from me My veins have all run dry So let’s go ‘cause there's a vacancy So let me know where I belong Locked away and when it seems so long, know I tried I want to stay but I just don’t know Still stuck inside but now I have to go, with all I’ve known I fill the void that’s rendered all of my anxiety But I’m still lost in tranquility With the lonely ghost that stands next to me Collapsing all of my abilities and seizing all my insecurities But I tried So let me know where I belong Locked away and when it seems so long, know I tried I want to stay but I just don’t know Still stuck inside but now I have to go, with all I’ve known
