Completely Unsure

I'm a defiant man and self-assured
defiance is just self-assured
I'm half crazy maybe I'm not sure
so when it comes to you and me
or, for that matter, anything
reality is bound to change
so maybe I'm not sure
everyday I see her walking by
I used to shout and curse the sky
nowadays I could care less
and I don't picture her undressed
maybe this is the last test
I am so happy to be alone
I would see you but you're not home
hear you two are doing pretty good
and it's ok
it's getting awful stale anyway
and for the first time I feel sorry for you
cuz I am in bloom
you'll go down your slippery road and I will go down mine
you can just do what you want
cuz I'm gonna be just fine
love is not something that you should have to bear
and if you try to get me down, you won't
I wish you all the luck in the world
and I hope you find what you need
and wherever that may lead
oh maybe we will..
I am so happy to be alone
I would see you but you're not home
love like that don't last so long
just like a couple of shots and you're done
don't let it get you down for the first time
for the first time I'm not alone and without you.

Mutiny
04:20
|
|||
feels like my world's ripping apart
I am blind and in the dark
harpies tearing out my chest with their hooks
my only company are those in books
somebody tell me what to say
I'm alive, but I'm ok
can't tell if I should listen to my brain
concerning puzzles laced with insane
and I thought once we were on an island
but now I see only bridges in between
mutiny take over and mutiny again
I thought I saw a light and that it wasn't at the end
oh I believe in the things I swore to never try again
mutiny take over and mutiny again
as time goes on I'm always older
when you catch up I'll have left you colder
we switch roles between thief and widow
and i believe that this whole show will end when everybody's dead
I'M SORRY FOR THE PROMISES THAT SPOILED INTO LIES
THAT FESTERED INTO MAGGOTS, GIVING BIRTH TO BABY FLIES
THAT FLY AWAY OR STICK AROUND TO FEED ON THE DECAY
EITHER WAY RETURNING BACK INTO THE DIRT WHERE THEY WERE LAID.

Lights
06:00
|

we're in the city of lights, but nothing's on
we got permission to fly, but we're not grown
we're gliding by like ice
and sometimes i worry
dark and cold are together
if i could change your mind maybe it'd change the weather
we're only passing by
the lights are slipping by
we're gliding by like ice
and sometimes i worry
and sometimes i don't care to mind
FLOATING ISLANDS IN MY HEAD
i think i'm stranded but i can't check
the one towards the sun is blinding
the one towards the sea is calling
and sometimes you're calling
and sometimes i don't care to mind
come back
get back to the place where we were born into the light
whatever helps you sleep at night
turn down the knob on the dashboard radio
the light is bright, but as far as i know
your voice is all i hear
your voice is all i want to hear.

Ten
03:15

got ten fingers
got ten toes
got more than ten reasons not to let you go
oh i know, houses aren't what they used to be
outlines of where we used to sleep
breath in the cold holds it's form longer now than bricks in a line
this is home now
welcome welcome
i only need one reason now
clear as the sun when you're around
when the eclipse in the sea and the sand dunes meet

Coal
05:44
|

every song i write is the same
i'm an honest man who makes his own pain
trying so hard to tell everyone how i feel and explain
pavement, madness, and you
trying to understand
and by god i wish that you could
i figured out that nobody stops loving who they loved
you caught desire and i caught the flu
drowns in my eyes
the coal piling up and i never knew
it wasn't enough
but who can blame a girl for jumping off a sinking ship?
if you were drowning who forged the news?
words don't say enough
i want you to see this too
i'm begging of you
i tell it to go
i tell it to spread it's colors
i point but i don't know its name
trying to let this go
you can't change what you don't control
i figured out that nobody will ever know me
(the light that's burning away makes me feel so alone
i've been here so long, so does that make it home?
the darkness makes me wonder how much left there is to give to you)
love is the only way to heal it's own break-in/until i learn to stop and end this agony i asked for
turn out the lights
i'm coming home
da da da da
doesn't matter
it's all the same
say what you mean
and take breaths in between
don't have to be my enemy
don't be my enemy
or my one and only, lonely.

All I Saw
04:15
|

you were all i saw in the end
i did not see my mother
and i did not see my friends
you were all i saw in the end
you were all i sang in the end
i did not sing my brothers
and i did not sing amen
you were all i sang in the end
i stepped into the night
and the light fell quietly
turning me to shadow on the wall
i didn't know a thing
i was the only domino
as i fell your echoes drowned the curtain call
you were all i saw in the morning
i saw your gaze of embrace
and i saw your cheeks' sunrise
reborn every day in your love.
