Guilt & Doubt

Long nights alone
Thoughts nurtured in solitude
Much needed suffering
approaches no matter what we do
Clouded by uncertainty
Fear that has misguided me
Is lost all we're doomed to be
and will we ever see
And if I chose to stay
would you still need me
And if we find our way
how long can we stay
Decisions made and prices paid
A strange belief
in childish fate
And if I chose to stay
would you still need me
And if we find our way
how long can we stay

How to Stay Silent

This millstone
Something close to nostalgia
but closer to regret
Recoil in fear at
things that I've made myself forget
A closed of place
Long abandoned
Stirs a feeling
that could never
have a name
This millstone
around my neck
Won't you take it back
Won't you take it back
At this point
emptiness seems like a dream
Nothing could
ever lessen the sting
This millstone
around my neck
Won't you take it back
Won't you take it back
I'll just let the fear decide for me
Take the path of least resistance

Snuffing Out the Light
04:21
|

Pushing forward all this time
Still no end in sight
Waiting for the sun to set
snuffing out the light
Still missing
things that I have never known
Still waiting
for things to come and go
And after-all
I only made it so far
Repeating
over in my mind again
Always dreaming
something would change the way it's been
And after-all
I only waited so long
Pushing forward all this time
Still no end in sight
Waiting for the sun to set
snuffing out the light
Barely waking
Wondering if I'm still alive
Sitting shotgun
waiting for my turn to drive
And after-all
I only fought so hard
Am I still thinking clear
thinking fate could reappear
Am I still thinking straight
Who could rely on me
Waiting for the end to begin

Oppressor

Push you down and wait for
you to breathe in the water
This time's worse than before
No one to blame when they find her
I need more
Another way too
You hurt more
and I'll put you back together
Becoming the oppressor
Leaving you out in the desert
to forget your face
I need more
Another way to
hurt you more
so I can put you back together
I think that I might need to
let her go
The weight that's on my back can't
let it grow

Busted Lip
03:38
|
|||
|
I'll ask you to hit me hard
Will you watch me crash again
I'm through right from the start
Show you where the fuck I stand
before I fall down again
Wasted and alone
Never made it home
Wasted and alone
I'll bet you wanna hit me hard
Hoping that we crash again
Confused with heavy hearts
Not quite sure just what it meant
Just take some time to think about
what you did
Busted lip

Waiting for the Fall
03:43
|

|
Where have I gone to this time
Promised something only to be denied
But what I don't know how the fuck should I know
Maybe this is what life is on the outside
I smoke through cobwebs
but I know it's only a distraction
But maybe I won't..
what it takes but I'll never admit it
I guess I'll learn to like it either way
but I'll never really know
if I'll ever feel a balance
But still I wonder when
with any way we go
will it ever feel any different
I will keep on waiting for the fall

Bitter

Wait
I thought that you were the same
Me
I'm not as cold as you seem
With time comes loss and pain
but I never thought I'd see
you become so bitter
Spit
out that shit you've chewed on for days
The taste
that you just can't seem to rinse
With time comes loss and pain
but I never thought I'd see
you become so bitter

Room for Sin
05:41
|

|
Heading straight to the straight and narrow
Cold and dry, somewhere i don't know
Fleeting thoughts of sinking below
and letting go
Keep coming into the place that we've been
Keep coming in, I think I'm finally feeling
Keep coming in, there's still room for some sin
before they make us leave again
Hating having to find some control
Shitty feeling always in tow
Being dragged down by the undertow
and letting go
Keep coming into the place that we've been
Keep coming in, I think I'm finally feeling
Keep coming in, there's still room for some sin
before they make us leave again
They'll make us leave again
Heading straight to the straight and narrow
Cold and dry, somewhere i don't know
Fleeting thoughts of sinking below
and letting go
Keep coming into the place that we've been
Keep coming in, I think I'm finally feeling
Keep coming in, there's still room for some sin
before they make us leave again

Slowly letting go but never noticeably
Never answering my calls but you always call on me
Wishing you could find a way to connect with me
and tell me who the fuck I'm supposed to be
Oblivious to fate
A love that I've watched fade away
Fond memories slipping out of my reach
Trying to forget what you've made of me
You know that I can't take the way you tease
me
Oblivious to fate
A love that I've watched fade away
Life's a bitch
who just won't give you shit
Falling in and out of love and always
taking your breath away
On your lips
you can still taste the kiss
of a life that you once loved that keeps on
taking you're breath away

A Ghostly Idol
03:35
|
|||
|
We're left to find ourselves
Betrayed by light that keeps us from seeing
The wasted time spent searching for you
left me feeling blind and so uncertain
And now I'll say
never again
will I stand
at you gates
Though I've been told you'd never leave me
I'd sell my soul to shut you out
All I recall was pain and silence
I swear I'd never let you in
Limiting our lives from what could have been
Drawing senseless lines, keeping us from what we're needing
Spending countless days searching for the answers
better spent than praising a ghostly idol
And I'll still say
never again
will I give
you my praise
Though I've been told you'd never leave me
I'd sell my soul to shut you out
All I recall was pain and silence
I swear I'd never let you in
Though I've been told you'd never leave me
I sold my soul to shut you out
All that I know is pain and silence
I swore I'd never let you in
