Discomfort to speak
By discouraging eyes
Unable to sleep
By uncomfortable lies
See what you're missing now
Believe in the history found
In stories and letters
Like notes to a romance
Take the good with the bad
Accept it
Like I accepted you
Uncertain to love
By incapable hearts
Disabled to run
By dismantling parts
See what you're living now
Believe in the present found
In visions and pictures
Like scenes to a love song
Take the old with the new
Accept it
Like I accepted you
Before I could
I cried
Before I loved
I sighed
When waves were waking me
I sat outside
And missed you
So simply

Truth of the Day
The day they called
And said come along
You need this more than me
So I'll pass it on
I just sat there
And ate nothing else
Stared into the sky
Anticipating hell
Then I looked at you
And you said don't cry
I know the truth
You're not going to die
So I trusted you
And I breathed in deep
Pushed away the fear
My heart tried to keep
I just carried on
And I didn't die
And I never will
Because you were right
And you are life
And said come along
You need this more than me
So I'll pass it on
I just sat there
And ate nothing else
Stared into the sky
Anticipating hell
Then I looked at you
And you said don't cry
I know the truth
You're not going to die
So I trusted you
And I breathed in deep
Pushed away the fear
My heart tried to keep
I just carried on
And I didn't die
And I never will
Because you were right
And you are life
To Behave in a Servile or Demeaning Manner
It goes straight to my soul like
An independant media
Convincing me to believe in
All it's propaganda
So I won't be afraid
And this world it has to end
But more like a flower
Bending towards the sun
It's photosynthesis
Turned to photography
And animated points of view
That turn me in to trusting you
With my life
And imagination died
So all that's left is what I'm taught
No matter how hard I fought
To keep from dying out
Like extinction is state of mind
And we can change our destiny
But God is in control
More than you'll ever know
At least if you don't let go
You'll have some independence left
But what use is that
If you can't make decisions on your own
The water was created
And God is in your dreams
Telling you who you are
And what you're going to be
And you might think that it's ok to act out
But the mountains you have lept weren't always there
And the field where you slept used to be bare
Before the berries and the leaves
Took a chance and chose to believe
So they fell further than you
Could ever hope to fall
It's grovelling
Turned to gravity
And comic points of view
No they're not mine
It's a different kind
And it doesn't work for me
But then suddenly
The crashing of the waves
Sing a melody so sweet
It's much better than my dreams
And that's the night you'll see
When you look at the stars
White, yellow or blue
It's more or less up to you
But colour was created
And God is self-esteem
Telling you who you are
And everything you might be
And you might think that it's ok to attack
But the mountains you have lept weren't always there
And the field where you slept used to be bare
An independant media
Convincing me to believe in
All it's propaganda
So I won't be afraid
And this world it has to end
But more like a flower
Bending towards the sun
It's photosynthesis
Turned to photography
And animated points of view

The Wind is Just My Doubt
Every time I spark a flame
It's too windy and it goes out
But that's ok, yeah I don't mind
I think the wind is just my doubt
I feel uncertainty about it
And that's the reason it won't grow
I don't know how to tame it
It's always out of my control
The words get caught inside my throat
With a single breath of air
I guess if I tried I could force it out
But I guess I just don't care
So I take a sip of water
Let ambiguity sink
Absorb inside my presence
And drown right into me
But nothing I can take will hold it down
And I remember I heard a comment
From a guy just hanging around
He said he didn't know who I was but he
Liked something about me and he
Thought that I was someone
But it turns out I am no-one
So it doesn't really matter what I do
And he said I'd never matter to you
It's too windy and it goes out
But that's ok, yeah I don't mind
I think the wind is just my doubt
I feel uncertainty about it
And that's the reason it won't grow
I don't know how to tame it
It's always out of my control
The words get caught inside my throat
With a single breath of air
I guess if I tried I could force it out
But I guess I just don't care
So I take a sip of water
Let ambiguity sink
Absorb inside my presence
And drown right into me
But nothing I can take will hold it down
And I remember I heard a comment
From a guy just hanging around

Liked something about me and he
Thought that I was someone
But it turns out I am no-one
So it doesn't really matter what I do
And he said I'd never matter to you
The Truth is Hard to Come By
The idea is ideal
But the reality is vague
And nothing can compare
To the emptiness I crave
That's what you gave
That's what you gave
And heartache has me clinging
To a laughable belief
The world will just keep spinning
Even when I sleep
As long as I'm okay
As long as we are fine
But the insane and upsetting
Just keep growing all the time
Like a bridge
I run between
Through open doors
Distasteful scenes
Like a swarm
Of killer bees
You kill the dreams
You slaughter dreams
The example is shining
Like a dazzling, glossy show
If I could take it for real
If I could see that it was real
If I could believe in something real
Then I would never have to know
And if truth was just an object
To buy or sell or touch
I would grab it in a second
Casually ask, "how much?"
'Cause I would buy that
I would need it
If I could see it
I would steal it
That's what you gave
That's what you gave
That's what I take
That's what I would take
But the reality is vague
And nothing can compare
To the emptiness I crave
That's what you gave
That's what you gave
And heartache has me clinging
To a laughable belief
The world will just keep spinning
Even when I sleep
As long as I'm okay
As long as we are fine
But the insane and upsetting
Just keep growing all the time
Like a bridge

Through open doors

Casually ask, "how much?"
'Cause I would buy that
I would need it
If I could see it
I would steal it
That's what you gave
That's what you gave
That's what I take
That's what I would take
The Can-Crushing Day
You come into the world with nothing
And leave again with nothing
So you don't need to gain anything
Because you will have to give it up
The world corrupted my soul
Like a cliche
Consumerism took my freedom
And made me think I could be happy
By being something
It's all philosophy
Fulfilling a prophecy
And nothing is fact like it was
When you had no motive to find out
Sometimes I care
But there's nothing to care about
If I'm just living for myself
You aren't existing if you don't know the truth
It's like they don't want you to think
Because you might end up too free
Talking is nothing
It doesn't keep a record
And if everything matters
Then why are we still searching
Ignorance is bliss
But I don't want to be blissful
I'd rather know
One day you have to stop somewhere
And choose that you are content
In knowing nothing else
And accept your fate
You can't trust anything
It could be a conspiracy
People find comfort in knowledge
And it's never enough to sustain the feeling
And leave again with nothing
So you don't need to gain anything
Because you will have to give it up
The world corrupted my soul
Like a cliche
Consumerism took my freedom
And made me think I could be happy
By being something
It's all philosophy
Fulfilling a prophecy
And nothing is fact like it was
When you had no motive to find out

But there's nothing to care about

And accept your fate

It could be a conspiracy
People find comfort in knowledge
And it's never enough to sustain the feeling
Strive to Attain the Beautiful
I wanted to write something for you
About the beautiful things you do
And the way you look
And the way you laugh
But there just aren't the right words to
I'm so intrigued by your applique
Your decorative appeal is all but meek
From what I gather
You love like a feather
Floating backwards and forwards to me
I wanted to sing something to you
About how I see you with a crystal clear view
And the way you smile
And the way you socialise
But there just aren't enough words to
I'm so lost in the sound of your heart
And your ornamental allure is evident from the start
From what I presume
You love like a balloon
And one thistle could burst you apart
I'm so fixed on the look in your eyes
And your questions and tests trying me on for size
From what I believe
Your heart's on your sleeve
And that adornment could be your demise
About the beautiful things you do
And the way you look
And the way you laugh
But there just aren't the right words to
I'm so intrigued by your applique
Your decorative appeal is all but meek
From what I gather
You love like a feather
Floating backwards and forwards to me
I wanted to sing something to you
About how I see you with a crystal clear view
And the way you smile
And the way you socialise
But there just aren't enough words to
I'm so lost in the sound of your heart
And your ornamental allure is evident from the start
From what I presume
You love like a balloon
And one thistle could burst you apart
I'm so fixed on the look in your eyes
And your questions and tests trying me on for size
From what I believe
Your heart's on your sleeve
And that adornment could be your demise
Shivering Sorry
Back where I started
Where have I been?
I have been dreaming
The years along with me
But by the time I slip up
I'm back to the top
And not a thing is down
To where I am going next time
So surprised
To be living a lie
The sweetness inside
Can do nothing to I
Baby throw me
Something warm to wear
I am freezing
I am deathly cold
Oh what you meant to me
Baby show me
Something warm to be
I am freezing
I am never lost again
Serenade me
With musical notes
Of memory
Oh what you meant to me
Back in the days
When it was all swaying
In the wind
And my dying light
Who I never could sacrifice
Not for any price
I would've never made you better
Baby throw me
Something warm to wear
I am freezing
I am deathly cold
Oh what you meant to me
Baby show me
Something warm to be
I am freezing
I am never lost again
Where have I been?
I have been dreaming
The years along with me
But by the time I slip up
I'm back to the top
And not a thing is down
To where I am going next time
So surprised
To be living a lie
The sweetness inside
Can do nothing to I
Baby throw me
Something warm to wear
I am freezing
I am deathly cold
Oh what you meant to me
Baby show me
Something warm to be
I am freezing
I am never lost again
Serenade me
With musical notes
Of memory
Oh what you meant to me
Back in the days
When it was all swaying
In the wind
And my dying light
Who I never could sacrifice
Not for any price
I would've never made you better
Baby throw me
Something warm to wear
I am freezing
I am deathly cold
Oh what you meant to me
Baby show me
Something warm to be
I am freezing
I am never lost again
Research the Experience
The butterfly dissappeared
And the threads were coming loose
The beat coming back boring
Through an argument with you
All experience and
Lack of research and
Lack of interest
Don't break down
The sunglasses reflected
What my eyes couldn't prove
The big, bold, debate
An understandable move
Stop teasing me
With those sounds
Why are you pushing me?
'Cause it's all I can do
On this desk
In this place
At the end
With a scream
In a dream
It depends
Why are you pushing me?
'Cause it's all I can do
And the threads were coming loose
The beat coming back boring
Through an argument with you
All experience and
Lack of research and
Lack of interest
Don't break down
The sunglasses reflected
What my eyes couldn't prove
The big, bold, debate
An understandable move
Stop teasing me
With those sounds
Why are you pushing me?
'Cause it's all I can do
On this desk
In this place
At the end
With a scream
In a dream
It depends
Why are you pushing me?
'Cause it's all I can do
Pushing You and Pulling You
It's free with a discount
It's love on a cliffside
And I am descending
It's lyric and meaning
Sang out with a feeling
I convince you it's nothing
It hurts me that I'm pushing you away
And music only amplifies the pain
But I keep listening
'Cause I feel like if I don't
I'll forget and then let go
And there's something refreshing
About being alone
It's poisoned with passion
It's hatred by habit
And I am oblivious
It's language and value
With something to tell you
I believe in a future
It surprises me that I'm pulling you in to me
And music is an avenue to be free
So I keep playing
And I feel like if I don't
I'll accept and make a toast
To the way I am and to the way
I'll always be
It's love on a cliffside
And I am descending
It's lyric and meaning
Sang out with a feeling
I convince you it's nothing
It hurts me that I'm pushing you away
And music only amplifies the pain
But I keep listening
'Cause I feel like if I don't
I'll forget and then let go
And there's something refreshing
About being alone
It's poisoned with passion
It's hatred by habit
And I am oblivious
It's language and value
With something to tell you
I believe in a future
It surprises me that I'm pulling you in to me
And music is an avenue to be free
So I keep playing
And I feel like if I don't
I'll accept and make a toast
To the way I am and to the way
I'll always be
Live and Let Live
You say be good, you say behave
But babe I wanna hear you calling out my name
And like a dress I wear you out
You're falling over just to see what I'm about
I can't live and let live
Without you on my arm
You say just smile, you say be brave
But then you pull me down and fill me with your shame
And with a breath I blow you out
But I don't wanna hear you sighing with such doubt
I can't live and let live
Without you on my arm
I can't learn to forgive
You're raising the alarm
But babe I wanna hear you calling out my name
And like a dress I wear you out
You're falling over just to see what I'm about
I can't live and let live
Without you on my arm
You say just smile, you say be brave
But then you pull me down and fill me with your shame
And with a breath I blow you out
But I don't wanna hear you sighing with such doubt
I can't live and let live
Without you on my arm
I can't learn to forgive
You're raising the alarm
Little Bit Late
Her friend's house see, it was on the way
And maybe that's why she was a little bit late
If you can remember
Being all alone in the system
Dark in the wisdom
Disguising your heart
With a prentencious start
Over again
Just a meaningless kiss
And a faith for a wish
Like a theme of indifference
Taking your confidence
One by one
Or one by two or three
Four at a time
Four in a great big line
I'm through it
I threw it far
A death dragging down my words
Upsetting the obvious
Bleaker than usual bleak
It's feeling you in to me
She's screaming at you with the habit you hate
Maybe that's why she was a little bit late
I'm through it
I threw it far
A death dragging down my words
Upsetting the obvious
Bleaker than usual bleak
It's feeling you in to me
And maybe that's why she was a little bit late
If you can remember
Being all alone in the system
Dark in the wisdom
Disguising your heart
With a prentencious start
Over again
Just a meaningless kiss
And a faith for a wish
Like a theme of indifference
Taking your confidence
One by one
Or one by two or three
Four at a time
Four in a great big line
I'm through it
I threw it far
A death dragging down my words
Upsetting the obvious
Bleaker than usual bleak
It's feeling you in to me
She's screaming at you with the habit you hate
Maybe that's why she was a little bit late
I'm through it
I threw it far
A death dragging down my words
Upsetting the obvious
Bleaker than usual bleak
It's feeling you in to me
It's Basically Clear Now
It's all black and white
I am grateful these days
Because what I was
Pushed you so far away
And the cold winter grew
And developed in me
Then the icy winds blew
Me right back to you
When I see how I changed
And I know what I did
Was all a mistake
I am only a kid
You never stopped me in my tracks
I had to turn around and go back
Back to the beginning
To the first signs of winning
When you told me who I was
It's clear to me now
Why you had to let go
And you didn't explain
What I needed to know
My limits are certain
And I know where to stop
You showed me once before
But I guess I forgot
I am grateful these days
Because what I was
Pushed you so far away
And the cold winter grew
And developed in me
Then the icy winds blew
Me right back to you
When I see how I changed
And I know what I did
Was all a mistake
I am only a kid
You never stopped me in my tracks
I had to turn around and go back
Back to the beginning
To the first signs of winning
When you told me who I was
It's clear to me now
Why you had to let go
And you didn't explain
What I needed to know
My limits are certain
And I know where to stop
You showed me once before
But I guess I forgot
Inarticulate
If I knew every metaphor
I could tell you how I feel with the ease of example
'Cause I know you like it when I know what I mean
And I don't get all messed up in trying to explain
The complexities of my love
I sit patiently alone and wait
For your contact verbal or physical
And just when you're ready I'm about to give up
And blame the world for the worst
The complexities of my love
I could tell you how I feel with the ease of example
'Cause I know you like it when I know what I mean
And I don't get all messed up in trying to explain
The complexities of my love
I sit patiently alone and wait
For your contact verbal or physical
And just when you're ready I'm about to give up
And blame the world for the worst
The complexities of my love
I Just All of a Sudden Wanted Something Else
Every word that you speak
Is like a rush of blood to the head
And every action you intend
For a different meaning is corrected
To live and die are completely the same thing
When life is dull and pointless it can leave you considering
The unimaginable
The unattainable
The perfect goals become a mission that you
Know you can't accept
And decision becomes a way of life that
Gets you out of debt
Every sound that you make
Is like an injection of adrenalin
And every movement you pretend
You didn't mean is still confusing
To climb and fall are completely the same thing
When climbing takes you nowhere it can leave you wondering
About activity
About this century
The way you go becomes unconcious and you
Know you're out of place
And ignorance is inevitable or you won't
Look me in the face
Is like a rush of blood to the head
And every action you intend
For a different meaning is corrected
To live and die are completely the same thing
When life is dull and pointless it can leave you considering
The unimaginable
The unattainable
The perfect goals become a mission that you
Know you can't accept
And decision becomes a way of life that
Gets you out of debt
Every sound that you make
Is like an injection of adrenalin
And every movement you pretend
You didn't mean is still confusing
To climb and fall are completely the same thing
When climbing takes you nowhere it can leave you wondering
About activity
About this century
The way you go becomes unconcious and you
Know you're out of place
And ignorance is inevitable or you won't
Look me in the face
Glitter Magnet
The glitter makes my eyes water
And I'm sure I keep hearing my name
The beauty of repetition
That I feel I could never live up to
How did you move me so slowly
It's like I was there all along
Backwards and forwards
I hate the motion
But the repetition makes me crazy for you
The glitter is on everything now
I know I don't need it but
I can't help the attraction
'Cause metal is metal or magnets are lonely
Two verses can make up a song
Backwards and forwards
From chorus motion
And the repetition makes me crazy for you
And I'm sure I keep hearing my name
The beauty of repetition
That I feel I could never live up to
How did you move me so slowly
It's like I was there all along
Backwards and forwards
I hate the motion
But the repetition makes me crazy for you
The glitter is on everything now
I know I don't need it but
I can't help the attraction
'Cause metal is metal or magnets are lonely
Two verses can make up a song
Backwards and forwards
From chorus motion
And the repetition makes me crazy for you
Expectations
I'm just going to eat rice crackers all day
Until the flavour gets rid of the taste
And I'll get very thin
And hopefully fit in
To the dress you don't want me to waste
I'm just going to work hard all day
Until I collapse for lack of a break
And I won't have much fun
But I'll get all the work done
Then find it was all a mistake
I'm just going to speak language all day
Utnil you hear what I have to say
And my words will fall down
Make a mess on the ground
Then they'll sweep all the meaning away
I spent all my money today
On all sorts of creations to make myself sane
And when I got home
I realised I'm alone
Not everyone wastes money this way
Tomorrow I'm staying in bed
Just getting up is a thought that I dread
And living again
The day I lived today
I think I would rather be dead
Until the flavour gets rid of the taste
And I'll get very thin
And hopefully fit in
To the dress you don't want me to waste
I'm just going to work hard all day
Until I collapse for lack of a break
And I won't have much fun
But I'll get all the work done
Then find it was all a mistake
I'm just going to speak language all day
Utnil you hear what I have to say
And my words will fall down
Make a mess on the ground
Then they'll sweep all the meaning away

And living again
The day I lived today

Don't Miss the Point
Crumbling from inside myself
You left a space of circumstance
And I'm empty when I think about
The requirements that were not met
As I'm torn from every angle
Sloping up to an encounter
What a waste of capability
The extent of my regret
And I try not to cry
But the silent tears have fallen
Like a flashback from a mirror
Where I used to stare at me
Though I held on so tight
You slipped right through my fingers
With your substance and significance
Melting from the heat
Waking up to nothing
Every single day is torture
Just waiting for an answer
To distract me from the time
When I take this leap of faith
I'm interrupted by your selfishness
Recollection of your pure intrest
Softer than the sky
And I try not to cry
But the silent tears have fallen
Like a flashback from a mirror
Where I used to stare and see
Though I held on so tight
You slipped right through my fingers
With your fibre and flamboyance
Melting from the heat
Being forced to participate
In the exercise you organised
While witnessing the blatant lies
I think you missed the point
And I try not to breathe
But the breaths keep getting deeper
Like a cyclone writhing in me
Pressuring me to leave
Though I held on so tight
You slipped right through my fingers
With your detail and deliverance
Melting from the heat
Of my hands
You left a space of circumstance
And I'm empty when I think about
The requirements that were not met
As I'm torn from every angle
Sloping up to an encounter
What a waste of capability
The extent of my regret
And I try not to cry
But the silent tears have fallen
Like a flashback from a mirror
Where I used to stare at me
Though I held on so tight
You slipped right through my fingers
With your substance and significance
Melting from the heat
Waking up to nothing
Every single day is torture
Just waiting for an answer
To distract me from the time
When I take this leap of faith
I'm interrupted by your selfishness
Recollection of your pure intrest
Softer than the sky
And I try not to cry

You slipped right through my fingers
With your fibre and flamboyance
Melting from the heat
Being forced to participate
In the exercise you organised
While witnessing the blatant lies
I think you missed the point
And I try not to breathe
But the breaths keep getting deeper
Like a cyclone writhing in me
Pressuring me to leave
Though I held on so tight
You slipped right through my fingers
With your detail and deliverance
Melting from the heat
Of my hands
Contented to a Fault
I feel strange
Like my body is moving
And I don't know why
And I don't know how
And I don't know for who
I feel blessed
Like my prayers have been answered
And I don't know when
And I don't know which
Of my dreams have come true
I just can't remember
Why I needed something else
I have become complacent
In this sufficiency
I feel alone
Like the people around me
Don't know what to say
Don't know how to care
And don't know what to do
I feel distracted
Like my attention's averted
And I don't know where
And I don't know by what
Do I even know you?
I just can't remember
Why I had to help myself
I have become conceited
In my capacity
Like my body is moving
And I don't know why
And I don't know how
And I don't know for who
I feel blessed
Like my prayers have been answered
And I don't know when
And I don't know which
Of my dreams have come true
I just can't remember
Why I needed something else
I have become complacent
In this sufficiency
I feel alone
Like the people around me
Don't know what to say
Don't know how to care
And don't know what to do
I feel distracted
Like my attention's averted
And I don't know where
And I don't know by what
Do I even know you?
I just can't remember
Why I had to help myself
I have become conceited
In my capacity
Constituent Parts Making Up a Whole
I want to listen to music with you
And lie on the deck like we used to
With blankets and sun
And that clear plastic roof
That got in the way of the fun
My memories leave me wanting
Because all you were is nothing
Compared to who you are
The more I talk
I want to talk to you more
You're making me fall down
In mess and melting sleepiness
And depth more than exterior happiness
That fades away with the weekend
We are learning to think
And thinking to learn
But all you can offer
Are large words of impact
Bigger than the planet
Beyond all the outfits you've ever worn
And all the bottles of dye you may have collected
There is a person waiting deep inside your lungs
If the sunlight calls you a liar
You must be in too deep
It's time to go for a ride
So take the back seat
And relax please
You're selling yourself short
Don't pay the price
It seems like
I feel like
I think that it's the same
And I know you don't see it
So I'll let you go
Until the point where it's just damage
Waiting to grow
And lie on the deck like we used to
With blankets and sun
And that clear plastic roof
That got in the way of the fun
My memories leave me wanting
Because all you were is nothing
Compared to who you are
The more I talk
I want to talk to you more
You're making me fall down
In mess and melting sleepiness
And depth more than exterior happiness
That fades away with the weekend
We are learning to think
And thinking to learn
But all you can offer
Are large words of impact
Bigger than the planet
Beyond all the outfits you've ever worn
And all the bottles of dye you may have collected
There is a person waiting deep inside your lungs
If the sunlight calls you a liar
You must be in too deep
It's time to go for a ride
So take the back seat
And relax please
You're selling yourself short
Don't pay the price
It seems like
I feel like
I think that it's the same
And I know you don't see it
So I'll let you go
Until the point where it's just damage
Waiting to grow
Blind Mice
I saw saw saw a little smile in your eyes
A face full of danger and a tongue full of lies
I didn't know that things would come back to life
My stars
My stars
I've never loved a sky so much
At night
My heart
I've never written tears so much
But you're thinking of the piano
And I mean it with a keyboard
And slow burning reality snapping
With the press of a button
Can you
Can you
Turn it around
Without the risk of a sound
Without the mistake of a town
Down see I never really noticed who I was
The wine
Disguised
Like three blind mice
In my shoes
I'm going for a walk in my own shoes
A face full of danger and a tongue full of lies
I didn't know that things would come back to life
My stars
My stars
I've never loved a sky so much
At night
My heart
I've never written tears so much
But you're thinking of the piano
And I mean it with a keyboard
And slow burning reality snapping
With the press of a button
Can you
Can you
Turn it around
Without the risk of a sound
Without the mistake of a town
Down see I never really noticed who I was
The wine
Disguised
Like three blind mice
In my shoes
I'm going for a walk in my own shoes
Being Something That Someone Has Failed to Win
I'm just lost in the world forever
And there's no getting out
It's nearly stuck between the stages in life
And waiting for the next part to begin
I'm sulky, sullen, unappeased
And the grass isn't green enough
So below what I am I fall and sit
Like I don't need you to respond to it
I'm dissatisfied
I need to be characterized
By a face to identify
The frustration in my life
Before I can ever be who I was made as
Like I can't wait anymore for an occurrence
To lead me into the situations
And deliver me from this direction
But it's too dark
And my voice is too quiet
It blends in to the music
And the world has abused it
I'm restless and irritable
And affronted in front of you
So I oppose myself and argue me
And claim there's something else to be
It's so blurred
And I can hardly see it
It's confused in the motion
And astray with the ocean
I'm believing for something to happen
And it's not making a difference
It's boredom guiding me slowly away
And passing promises have begun to fade
I'm incomplete
I need to find more than me
With some kind of flattery
To translate everything I mean
For all the negativity
Encouraged by animosity
Then stamped out by jealousy
I maintain my belief
And there's no getting out
It's nearly stuck between the stages in life
And waiting for the next part to begin
I'm sulky, sullen, unappeased
And the grass isn't green enough
So below what I am I fall and sit
Like I don't need you to respond to it
I'm dissatisfied
I need to be characterized
By a face to identify
The frustration in my life
Before I can ever be who I was made as
Like I can't wait anymore for an occurrence
To lead me into the situations
And deliver me from this direction
But it's too dark
And my voice is too quiet
It blends in to the music
And the world has abused it
I'm restless and irritable
And affronted in front of you
So I oppose myself and argue me
And claim there's something else to be
It's so blurred
And I can hardly see it

And passing promises have begun to fade
I'm incomplete
I need to find more than me
With some kind of flattery
To translate everything I mean
For all the negativity
Encouraged by animosity
Then stamped out by jealousy
I maintain my belief
And We Never Came Untied
With every day
Goes a night
That goes by
By the time I'm awake
With every girl
Comes a boy
Who comes first
In the worst time it takes
We are just attracted
And we are just attatched
We could never keep a secret locked away
Be charming
Instead of difficult please
I only watch you dream
Because it helps me get to sleep
Be boring
Instead of passionate please
I only make you leave
Because it helps me to see me
Don't leave
Don't go away
I never meant it
I never mean what I say
Don't go away
With every day
Goes a night
That goes by
By the time
I'm alive
In the morning sunshine-rise
I can put away the white
Washed and clean, seen by my eyes
Like terror
And comfort equally
Goes a night
