- 'Till I Can Walk
Over the water I hear only traces of things to come
And things that were never there at all
I saw the lights reflecting
I've heard the horns approaching the shore
And over my head I stare into darkness
And when I wake I still see nothing at all
I saw the waves were breaking
- Am I Alive
When it shakes your bones is it alright
when the closet door is the only source of light?
and the whole ride home you were mine
'til the front door closes leavin' me to fight back all these things that I've been feelin'
like a lost cause
when I know you're trying hard to make me right
and I'm holding out my hand to you
but you slip right through my fingers
- Anything
I took all of my pride
And I shoved it in a box full of deadly sins and threw away the keys
And if I don't get out of bed
And try and see the sun
I will waste away and never dream again
Do we ever dream at all?
If I take what I have
- Below
I wish I'd never touched the surface of the sun
Suddenly, I'm burning brightly, burning too bright
Falling fast into the sea
And I'm anchored to the ocean floor below
Sleeping softly on and on
Between my daydreams and my nightmares of the sun
- Breaking My Bones
I'm always home not for myself
But it was about me
Every song has been about me
And I saw it all
And I fought to tell
As it if was about me
Every dream has been about me
- Breathe, Desperately
I was once a quiet boy
Cleaning out my wounds but I
Never could keep my mouth shut
When I needed to
I could try to pry it loose
But the stone won't move
And I wanna try to rip it out
- Feel Love
When you laugh
You bring the whole house down to its knees
I'm alive
But only if you see me in front of you
You have yourself another drink
Then you go to bed
I haven't said another word
But I'm thinking it
- Fog
Who do you want to be now that there gone?
You can't help but feel a little bit left out of it.
If the others can't see that you're not well, then to hell with them.
You never needed anyone else.
You sail on alone in this fog. you don't know anyone at all.
Did you try to give away your love?
You can't always get it right the first time.
If you get up now you can try to survive.
- Ghost
I became everything not like once I was nothing
But I couldn't take anymore
Could I hold it in my hands
I can taste it on my tongue,
But I couldn't keep it all in my grasp
Too many times I was collapsing
I could not know it gets so far
Who am I to explain anything
- I Am Aware
The world was once in my hands
But now it's yours again
And I've seen this happen more than once before
I've looked around me over and over again
Searching for something that is beautiful
Have I found the thing that I desire?
Where were you when I was scared and all alone inside my head?
- I Don't Know You
Take all your photographs
Throw them into the fire
And find all your nears and take them too
And shake off the dust and the dirt
Clean your hands and your faces
And hold back your tears until it's threw
'Cause the photographs I've taken
- My Mouth, My Lips
And I left my house behind
To move in silence and never be seen again
And who is to be my friend
And I made my own bed
Made from printed beliefs and opinions
What will I teach my sons
- New Love
When you reach out to sunlight
Do you see this for what it was
Push the clouds back from both sides
You're holding on but you just don't see
You're holding on to lost love
Waiting on it
It came around last night
- No One Else
You stay up with the lights off in your room
It's not enough in your bed no one next to you
But I'm not leaving I'm just tryna hold your hand
You shut me out when I just wanna understand
Can I come over when you're back in town?
I wanna get high with you and lose ourselves
When it's all over I can bring you down
I wanna be alone with you and no one else (no one else)
- Nome
Waking up I was numb
The prediction I made was true
Lying fun I could touch
With communication I am blue
All that's left is just hanging there for us too
Pull us out with the lower hanging fruit
(No we're easier)
- paintings
I took all of my research and made it a while back
I have a thought for a while
Who is my teacher I'll never learn anything
And who has been my lover
She waits me in the dark to steal my love
To steal my love
- Runner
When you're old enough
When you've been through it
You won't know what it's like
You can't see things the same
But you're closer now
Did you close your eyes?
Did I close them first?
You weren't strong enough
- Sleeping Limbs
My lungs are not waking up
They don't listen to what the rest of me knows
And I'm counting down the days I have left
Only listening while I'm holding my breath
Till I see you...
Cut it down, I will cut them down
They tower over me while I sleep
- Stay Outside
We came from outside and our boots were dirty
But we hurried to get in from the cold
Can we rest our eyes
If you tell us you've been looking for another able body
Not you or anyone that looks like you
But if you can find anyone that looks like me, oh
We hate the outside and our chests were hurting
- The Bells
I'll walk the long way home again.
I was afraid that you would see my face and ask me where I've been.
I'll wait for something to begin, but I'm getting older and my days are wearing oh so thin.
To the creek where we fell in again, but I fell in again and it pulled you in as well.
But I don't think I could learn this wind
Without you there to keep my head up long enough to breathe the air that you breathe too.
To the church where I cast out my sins.
- The Canyon
When you stop and take it all in
You don't believe
It is just in your mind
It began in your head
When it hurts so bad
You don't want to believe
It is you that's wrong
- The Monster
You used to come alive
In the darkness, you held a light
In the basement, you held on tight
You would watch them night after night
You take them out and you dust them off
Are you the star? Are you meant to watch?
Are they the faces you used to know?
Are we okay? Are you all alone?
- We Are Sick
I wake up but I don't go out
I sit and I sit, and I fall to the ground
Will I be there for a long time?
And with my eyes only halfway closed
Did I see you in the doorway?
(Bridge)
Making sure I was sleeping so soft, and keeping so still
- We Follow
I took my time I took down every light as if they were mine
I went straight home I looked up every flight as if I could go somewhere
And if I never have to look in your eyes it'd be fine
And if my only way to get out is to lose my mind
I'll leave it somewhere or I'll leave it anywhere for you to find
I took them down I broke down every thought as if they were mine
- Your Son
They're running outside and they're telling me
There's been an accident somebody do something quick
But when can I do when the deed has been done
Am I so full of pride that I took you for granted
And never said I could use someone like you
And now I can't get it out of my head
Pictures of you crying that make me cry too
