Bullets
02:33
|

You said you had the best for me
You held me down while I scream
That’s when they took their shots and ran
You only protect the healthy man
If I had a gun I’d shoot them all
But it is your own fault
You showed me where the bullets lie
Now I’ll grab my gun and let my bullets fly
You showed me where the bullets lie

Parallel Heart
03:42
|
|||
You read and say belief
But actions tell a different story
It’s damage to yourself
And damage is done to me
Your heart and mind are not parallel
I’m not sure of what I believe
But I’m not lying to myself
And doing more damage
To this frail heart
Your heart and mind are not parallel

The One You Love
04:49
|

My dad said farewell to a friend
We’ll miss you dearly
He came home late that night
With tears in his eyes
Dad I need you know
My heart is here for you
Your family is here for you
We are here for you
She recounted all the times they had spent
His had her grasp painfully torn
And as his hand slipped
She held tight to the hands of a savior
You outlived the one you love
So your husband passed away
On the hospital bed
His strength was fading for a while
Fold yours hands and your pray
For something for anything
You outlived the one you love

Beat Of My Tongue
03:52
|
|||
Made my lovely cry last night
Though she said it was her to blame
The words she said I twist and bend
Until they come out my way
And as she lost control
Selfishly I take charge
To warp her mind some more
And as she lost control
I could not shut my mouth
I could not shut myself up
I am so sick of the power that I hold
With the beat of my tongue
For though well aware
The words stream fast
The only thing I damn is myself
So tears fall faster
But not on my account
I hate myself, I’ve established that
But I hate more the way she leaves
The pain in her eyes
Has steadily increased
And I’m the one to blame
If it would cause end
To the problems besieged
I’d cut out my tongue myself

Take Me Home
01:37
|

Take me home
Take me home
I’ve bleed too much
I cannot give more
Take Me Home
Take me home
Take me home
I cannot shut my stupid mouth
Take me home
Take me home
Cause I’ve thrown my words
In the wind for
Greedy hands
Take me home
Take me home
I cannot shut my stupid mouth
Take me home

Somewhere In Between
02:33
|
|||
Water wells around the eyes
I’ve cried myself to sleep
Pray that I won’t have these same bad dreams
When I awake will this all just be the same
Will my demons follow me
Darkness has a hold on me
I’ve given it a voice to speak
Thought that I was better
Than all my short comings
But I am somewhere in between
Look around in other eyes
To spot my own insecurity
See it all the time
Thought that it would lessons deaths grip on me
It still calls me by name

Little Boy
03:30
|

I am just a little boy
You are just a little girl
Innocence prevail I know
I love that you know, you know
You know I love you
I love you
Slept for two hours last night
Cause I couldn’t let you go
After lunch we moved to the couch
Where we slept for far too long
The white noise on the tv
Pulled us to our sleep
We tucked ourselves in with blankets
And heated the couches beneath
For a birthday surprise
I filled your mailbox with candy overflow
I see a childlike smile in your eyes
When you laugh at stupid things with me
We laugh when people fall down
And check if they’re hurt afterwards
We sneak candy into the movies
In your oversized purse
The world is getting far too serious
And I am seriously having fun with you
I never want to grow up
So I will stay young in your arms

The Dark Steals Me
04:07
|

A father got drunk and he hit his child
She ran off and slept on a park bench that night
We drove around for hours but never could find
She showed up to school with a black eye
I still drive by that park at night
The urge stop’s always there
As if you would still be on that bench
And I’d be the hero that night
Still the dark steals me
So I call out your name
Cause if I bring you back
Will the dark go away
Will the dark go away
Found out I went past the park on that night
Should I have called out your name
Or would the dark stole my calls like it stole your cries
Cause the dark’s still out for me
I hear my name called in the darkness of night
What does it expect of me
My fear shines the brightest when no ones around
To guard me

Deeper Graves
04:00
|
|||
Morning black, the sun is gone
Who knows for how long
Underwater breaths somewhere in between
Darkness and light
Ever looming is the pain
Decided if to let go
Sadly pain is a friend
We’ve known for too long
The grave’s getting deeper
And I’m one step in
The grave’s getting deeper
It’s closer than it’s ever been
We say life’s getting shorter
But we’ve all grabbed the shovel and
Dug the grave for ourself
So make up excuses to the level of the glass
Cause we all know how soon this will end

Where Feet Will Guide
05:23
|
|||
As I walk past houses, street lamps
They guide my feet
Strangely darkness and foggy breath
They comfort me
Black lit sky comforts as there was
No traffic by
These lonely feet guiding step by step
Will they take me
Take me home
Beautiful rain fall on my head
It kisses me
Took another breath of freedom
That clings to me
Strange noises comes from no where
My fear kicks in
To this perfect moment
I bid farewell
Take me home
Content whispers to me I will win
It battles inwards never resolved
Take me home
