Forever After
02:30
|
|||
|
your heart is keeping all the time
your head is similar to mine
the room is dark your lantern's broke
your writing songs inside the smoke
can't you see it makes no sense it doesn't matter
ease your mind you can't keep time forever after
you're sucking scraps out of the sink
your pen is running out of ink
the past is back you're coming home
you're writing words onto the stone
can't you see it makes no sense it doesn't matter
ease your mind you can't keep time forever after

Didn't You Baby
02:05
|

I thought I told you not to speak to me
although you want to you should leave me be
you tried to freeze me
didn't you baby
I won't make that mistake again
now when you see me turn and walk away
I'm not in any mood to talk today
you tried to burn me
didn't you baby
I won't make that mistake again

you were always talking you were too proud to listen
laughing at me for a while
you've had it bad but I doubt you're worried
I just wanna see you smile
I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you to be strong
all the years you want to do alone
songs to show her 'fore she's dying
please believe I'd never try and turn you
don't belong and don't be mine
I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you to be strong
I can feel it when I start to dream

Kidding Yourself
02:26
|
|||
|
when you cry the truth is coming from you
when you try and fight it you're only kidding yourself
though I realize you must keep happy
when you were a child your tears were laughing
and I don't think you should be so serious
'cause we all know nothing anyway

Kind Of Soul
02:03
|
|||
|
are you really gonna let her win after all she's done?
she's just another one
are you really gonna take her back after where she's been?
do you see what I mean?
recognize her mystery
if you'll promise this to me
don't be around that kind of soul
are you really gonna speak to her?
I can't believe you wouldn't let her leave
are you sleeping standing on your feet after all you've done?
you're not the only one
recognize her mystery
if you'll promise this to me
don't be around that kind of soul

Have A Home
02:08
|
|||
|
we use each other for personal gain
only to leave or still worse to remain
I think I'm playing your game
I seem to be there when moments arise
we have no memories attached to our lives
except for those in disguise
I need protection from those who try to use me
I don't possess you and still you do this to me
how could it be that you'd never want to have a home
you have to wander to know you can breathe
to be a sender and not to receive
with the greatest of ease
like tools of heaven we cross in our paths
the words of treasure you'd said with a laugh
I didn't want to be mad
I need protection from those who try to use me
I don't possess you and still you do this to me
how could it be that you'd never want to have a home

Open One
02:27
|
|||
|
ageless warriors fallen to the ground
in some deepness that captured every sound
all the drummers gathered 'round
parading through the streets of abandoned towns
grass and apples lightly brush your bones
words unspoken lay deep beneath the stones
all the Earthly shrieking tones
are lifeless in the flight logs of abandoned phones
paisley banshees have called you to your doom
fabric prisons that lock you in your room
all the notes you wrote too soon
you're naked and you're homeless underneath her moon
you condemned me but that makes you my slave
like the moments when you don't seem so brave
all the gifts you never gave
don't forget to buy your copy of 'No More Graves'

Push Down On You
02:35
|
|||
|
you haven't been amazed with what we've done
but have you ever felt the piercing gaze from everyone
pull you apart, push down on you
yes they do
pull you apart, push down on you
yes they do
there's so much to be said do you agree
I know that we can move ahead if you'd come with me
pull you apart, push down on you
yes they do
pull you apart, push down on you
yes they do

You Can Have Her
03:02
|
|||
|
you can have her, 'cause she'll only bring you harm
you can love her, 'cause you're just a thing on her arm
you can have her 'cause I know she's gonna drain your waters dry
she doesn't need you she just needs a reason to cry
oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
you can have her, man you wait 'til she rears her ugly head
you can love her, but before too long I bet the love is dead
you can have her 'cause she feels the need to leave everything behind
she doesn't need you she just needs a piece of your mind
oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

I'll Get Even
02:18
|
|||
|
you search for a key and you spy from a tree and you slip along corners between
every note that you smoked was a cough in your throat and a song that you tossed in a dream
and who was it on the hearing end? you slip through the woods in fear and then
you finally make it back
in the shadows he can't track, but he's tracing your steps
you keep out of sight like a creep in the night and you sneak along numbers so plain
you're sorry you looked what I wrote in my book but one of us can not have a name
now you scrape underneath what I use for a seat and the remnants are all you can take
for me to come in and sit right down, 'cause he don't want me comin' round and believin'
that the world has been deceivin'
can't you see how I'll get even?

We Spoke Our Minds
02:14
|
|||
|
people didn't find it acceptable at the time
we spoke our minds, we spoke our minds
you can call it what you want I'm lookin' fine
we spoke our minds, we spoke our minds
when I take sick one day and lay my head to rest
the papers all will talk of when I was my best
I'll keep repeating myself all of the time
we spoke our minds, we spoke our minds
you should check out the world it's lookin' fine
we spoke our minds, we spoke our minds
will daybreak come tomorrow? you'll have to wait your turn
the clock will strike your number, your candles cease to burn

I'm Not Sorry
02:11
|
|||
|
you tried to turn her and yourself against everyone else
a dark cloud full of rain you complain but you don't want to help
what to do? I can't trust you
oh, and everyone sees through you
you can't be wrong so I don't know what to say
you'll get defensive or something so I'll keep away
where to go? I don't know
oh, and I told you so
if I'm not just how you want me to be
I'm not sorry
no pity party thrown for you
I'm not sorry
I don't have all the answers and I'm not perfection myself
but I know how to be a true friend to somebody else
where to go? I don't know
oh, and I told her so
if I'm not just how you want me to be
I'm not sorry
no pity party thrown for you
I'm not sorry
and you're not sorry
I'm not sorry

Future Man
02:33
|
|||
|
I'm very smart you know I'm reading all the time
fine art and poetry and slavery and wine
are you impressed with my intelligent today?
extract the meaning of a stupid thing to say
future man, future man, future man
digital distraction has become something required
you once felt peaceful but you just thought you were tired
optic limitations have you permanently bummed
drugs and transportation always got you on the run
future man, future man, future man
