way too gone for us to meet halfway you see the line in the sand dont wash away you got to break it down you see the contrast fade your black my white a battleship gray
radio waves
confined to the web barely recognize what's left of me still i struggle to stay and it doesn't seem right have to feel you to remember me but you were a part of me now you keep my memories and i'm going now
i been walkin' the wires with the stars beneath my feet in the radio waves seven sisters laugh
an abandoned cafè near the midnight of the soul we hide and we count every tick of the clock reaper grinding his teeth and thirsting for the energy can’t give any more of me ill send you ahead of me and she's going now
i been walkin' the wires with the stars beneath my feet in the radio waves seven sisters talk to me i been comin' apart but i'm so afraid to leave in the radio waves seven sisters laugh
From self-propelled
one mrs. hippie afraid
a million things to do but i don’t make the time it’s easier being blind think of where i could be if i just set my mind its close enough to see still i won’t cross the line
the blame so easily falls everywhere but where it belongs right here now the only ass i can pin this tail on is me for standing by and waiting too long
save me from myself
afraid to fail afraid to fall afraid to have nothing but afraid to have it all afraid to leave and break these ties afraid to take the trip but afraid to miss the ride
afraid to fail
keep your tools to yourself i aint so smart but i amuse myself how can i read your lips when you don’t move your mouth? still i feel what you’re saying, can’t block it out
self respect on a shelf aint worth much so i abuse myself oh i’m in here somewhere but you may have to shout fingernails on the blackboard they drown you out
how deep the secret? how long the lie? how warm the colors of another sky? how far the reaches this time around? how long the shadows? blue sun goes down
into this could i have been any stupider? i don’t think so could i have thought any less about you? could i have been any more selfish here? i don’t think so you were the plan that i didn’t think through
you were the promise of making this life worth living you were the love that would make it all good now i realize that the gift i’m giving is leaving you here to deal with this
and i don’t know what i had in my mind i afraid of regrets down the line here i stand i’m
watching while the world in front of me redefines its inhumanities please forgive me for dragging you into this and i’m watching while the world in front of me chokes upon the pill atrocity please forgive me for dragging you, for dragging you into this for dragging you into this
and i don’t know what i was thinking of i i just wanted to give you my love here i stand i’m
watching while the world in front of me redefines its inhumanities please forgive me for dragging you into this and i’m watching while the world in front of me chokes upon the pill atrocity please forgive me for dragging you, for dragging you into this watching while the world in front of me please forgive me for dragging you, for dragging you into this for dragging you into this
29
i was just minutes away from ending my day with a bang in honor of your 29th planned to a t, to the finest detail perfection is all you deserve and i want that for you for life
you were just minutes away but ended your day with a crash and i'm wondering where you could be i come apart when the doctor says that we'll be lucky if you wake again and i feel the waves crushing me
i have a picture, perfect picture that i carry of you in my head and you're not in this hospital bed
for the love of God don't you know who i am? if you'd just blink your eyes won't you squeeze my hand? for the love of God think of our future years you're what's holding me together don't just leave me here
for the love of God you're what's holding me together holding me holding me

soul yesterday
you seem to feel the need to lie when it turned to hell, where was i? was no indication of your letting go was your inclination not to let it show?
looking back on everything gone by wondering how much of that was all just a lie you manipulated such a sacred vow was humiliated but i'm angry now
strange how forever leaves you never when you just look away i couldn't borrow more tomorrows wouldn't help anyway strange how forever left me never well i just looked away i couldn't borrow more tomorrows wouldn't help anyway it's soul yesterday to you
hold your head up
and if it's bad don't let it get you down, you can take it. and if it hurts don't let them see you cry, you can make it.
hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head high. hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head high.
and if they stare just let them burn their eyes on you moving. and if they shout don't let it change a thing that you're doing.
hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head high. hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head high.
and if they stare just let them burn their eyes on you moving. and if they shout don't let it change a thing that you're doing.
hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head high. hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head up, hold it hold your head high.
equilibrium
shifting focus don’t see clearly anymore soul in silence, voice can’t reach me anymore weightless witness with no conviction of my own no foundation with feet of clay beneath a heart of stone
what i really need is equilibrium what i really need what i really need is equilibrium what i really need
new understanding
leave these scars in sight and use them to remind yourself that currency divine can suck the life from life itself
she left you far behind she needed more than you could give two things that you couldn’t buy were a reason or the will to live
pack it up, stack it up spit polish your dollar signs when you’re shivering all your moneys a worthless blanket
voices around you have gone silent now voices inside you have gotten so loud at least two commandments are on shaky ground a new understanding, you’re suffering now
leave these scars in sight iuse them to remind myself
reaper sublime
it’s taken some time but you managed to change all your ways you saved up your pennies and purchased a shiny brand new face
you snip and you tuck and suffer the cut to cover the years but you’re still looking for just what to adjust to cover the fears
look in the mirror and pray to the hands of time it’s useless to fear her
the reaper sublime the reaper sublime mind on mind
careful what you say cause you might feed upon the words you leave behind mind on mind don’t let go the flame cause you might need to cross that bridge another time mind on mind
don’t just sit there rolling your third eye at me
careful what you say because they hang upon the words you leave behind mind on mind
don’t just sit there rolling your third eye at me
say what you mean what you saving the gray to take the shape of things to come mean what you say what you mean the streets we pave to take the shape of things to come
say what you mean mean what you say
