The Park

I went to your house to stay with you
In the dark room was light for two
Stars in the night sky, your thoughts were mine
A gentle light, a heart like mine, and just in time
I went to the park, it was sentimental
I walked there through the dark, to feel something gentle
Flowers waiting for light, dependent for their lives
Streetlights dim in the fog, showing hope in sadness
Two walked through the park, their words on fire
Through fright your words did right, the fight perspired
Light in the dark night, the world was right
I looked into your eyes to find no guise
I went to the park, it was sentimental
I walked there through the dark, to feel something gentle
Flowers waiting for light, dependent for their lives
Streetlights dim in the fog, showing hope in sadness

Please remove me from this body
Twenty-seven almost killed me
Youth is tough to just embody
Trembling hands just let me be
And in the mirror you can't see what is beyond you
Open a window just to feel the world passing down below
I breathe it in my lungs
It's all that I can do
I am wondering through your garden
Feeling that my heart has hardened
And in the mirror you can't see what is beyond you
Open a window just to feel the world passing down below
I breathe it in my lungs
It's all that I can do
It's all that I can do
Nearly back to where I started
Is this all my life will be?
And in the mirror you can't see what is beyond you
Open a window just to feel the world passing down below
I breathe it in my lungs
It's all that I can do
All that I can do
All that I can do
All that I can do

Tonight
05:07
|

I was wanting to see you tonight
But you’re 4,000 miles away from here
I was wanting to see you tonight
And how can I ask that of you, my dear?
Tonight, Tonight
I was wanting to kiss you tonight
But the cards don’t fold that way around here
I was wanting to kiss you tonight
And how can I ask that of you my dear?
Tonight, Tonight
I didn’t know what you were doing here with me
I was wanting to see you tonight
But you’re 4,000 miles away from here
Tonight, Tonight
I didn’t know what you were doing here with me

Suspicions
04:32
|

I have suspicions you are not who you seem you are
I escape my room, I've forgotten why I am running
Dragging me back in, I know I can't win anyway
I know I don't want to die, but I'd die trying to get out of here
Ahh!
I don't want to live long in this prison
I know all that you want is my money
I've seen fear kills more than the mind
You leave and go home to your family
I'll sit, my mom and dad still miss me
I wonder- will they ever see me?
(Will they ever see me?)
(Will they ever see me?)
(Will they ever see me?)
(Will they ever see me?)
(Will they ever see me?)
(Will they ever see me?)
(Will they ever see me?)
(Will they ever see me?)

Alarms and Headaches
03:00
|
|||
I drove by your house, I saw your old car
I saw your old car and threw a brick at it
I wasn’t alarmed, should have set my alarm
Didn’t set my alarm, I wasn’t into it
The cops came around, and they shot me down
Couldn’t run very far, I wasn’t into it
They took me away, they shut that big gate
My head hit the ground, I had to deal with it
Alarms don’t set unless you want them to
And headaches come when you don’t want them to
Now we’re both by the lake, might as well be in space
You just played on your phone, I couldn’t tear you from it
Said that I’d drive you home, you said that you’d go alone
I didn’t know what to do, you said you’re through with it
My brain seeped out of my ears, all of my hopes and fears
I hit the floor once again, I couldn’t deal with it
I got out of my car, and stood alone on my porch
I just stood in the dark silently
Alarms don’t set unless you want them to,
And headaches come when you don’t want them to
All seems the same, but I'm aware
The planets collide, the planets collide
Light bulbs turn bright, but I'm impaired
The planets collide.

Mom and Dad

My mom and dad aren't friends anymore
Dad went out on Mom 'cause she was a bore
My mom was nuts, my dad always swore
She was too much for him to adore
My mom and my dad aren't friends anymore
My mom and my dad aren't friends anymore
My mom and my dad aren't friends anymore
My mom and dad
My mom and dad
My mom and dad aren't friends anymore
They called me in to alter the score
Both looked to me, I walked out the door
I couldn't know what I was looking for
My mom and my dad aren't friends anymore
My mom and my dad aren't friends anymore
My mom and my dad aren't friends anymore
My mom and dad
My mom and dad
My mom and dad
My mom and dad
Mom and Dad
Mom and Dad

What sound does the sun make when the light hits the floor?
And what smell do the stars have when they ignite in the sky?
Now my eyes, they see no sound
Now my ears, they hear no sight
Is this world becoming a thought that seems so stale?
I think I've lost the stability in admitting I'm afraid
Now my eyes, they see no sound
No sound
Now my ears, they hear no sight
No sight
No sight
No sight

Future Vision
03:48

How could she live when God had stopped her every dream?
It’s hard to feel alive when you’re scared of death
And I said this to you, I said this to you
She didn’t want to give it, if she couldn’t get it back
She took from me - the blood was red
That’s only – one part of you, one part of you
You showed me love was just a giant waste of time
You might be right but that’s a chance that I’ll just have to take
I’ll just have to take
I could only see clouds
But she could see into the future

Conflicted
01:38

This morning I read that Raymond had died
And I felt conflicted
Everyone knows how to feel
Everyone has the answers
Either its black or its white
Sometimes life doesn’t last a life time,
And sometimes it lasts longer
Laying there in his bed
Eating there through his tube
Staring there at the wall
I said goodbye
And I felt conflicted
And I felt conflicted
And I felt conflicted
And I felt conflicted
