ON THE SURFACE OF MOST EVERYTHING
CANDY TOPPED ICE CREAM
PROTECTED FROM WHAT I FEAR THE MOST
THE HAUNTING OF MY LONELY GHOST
THE BEST WILL DIE BY THEIR OWN HANDS
TO GET AWAY I UNDERSTAND
REFRESHING AS A NEW DAY FEELS
THIS SUGAR BURNS AND NEVER HEALS
STAY WITH ME
PROMISE THAT YOU’LL NEVER LEAVE
I’VE NEVER SEEN YOU SO ALONE
DIAMOND OR A RHINESTONE?
STAY WTH ME
PROMISES YOU COULD NOT KEEP
I’VE NEVER SEEN YOU SO ALONE
DIAMOND OR A RHINESTONE?
WHAT’S THE WORTH IN STICKING OUT?
ON YOUR KNEES YOU WHIMPER OUT
LEATHER MASK IN REBEL’S BLACK
IT ONLY WORKS IF THEY’D DARE TO ASK
YOU THINK YOU WANT TO SET IT FREE
PLEASE JUST LET YOUR FAMILY SLEEP
WE’RE TIRED OF YOUR TRAGIC SPEECH
IT ALWAYS HURTS TO WATCH YOU LEAVE

I thought you wanted fun
I thought that’s why we’re here
But nothing’s fun forever
Just a couple times a year
We’ve been waiting forever
Thrills ahead to forget
Spinning too long on a tether
On the verge of throwing a fit
So give to me, your healing
Every time you should’ve walked away
Sing to me, when I’m screaming
Should have left, when you were ahead?
All these signs and warning
All these men of means
These machines have all been warming
They’ve been trying to fill your needs
The line it just gets longer
Evolutionary needs
When are these pills going to kick in
It’s like automatic repeat
Give to me, your healing
Every time you should’ve walked away
Sing to me, when I’m screaming
Should have left, when you were ahead?

MAYBE I WILL FIND MY ENDING
MAYBE I’ll JUST PLAY PRETEND
A DECISION TO THE ENDING
A DECISION TO SLEEP IN SIN
WAITING ON BETTER LIGHTING
WAITING ON A CULTURAL TREND
PEOPLE SAY THAT THEY SUPPORT YOU
JUST TAKE THEIR MONEY AND BEGIN AGAIN
BUT SOMEWHERE, I WENT MISSING
SOMEWHERE I FELL BE-HIND
I COULDN’T DEAL WITH REPETITION
AND WANDERED OFF MY LINE
SOMEWHERE, WHEN WE WENT MISSING
SOMEWHERE WE FELL BEHIND
WE JUMP AROUND LIKE WE’RE SUSPENDED
LIKE SOMETHING FRAGILE OR DIVINE
FLUORESCENT LIGHTS THAT TASTE LIKE MONEY
IT’S COMING BACK ON A BULLET TRAIN
THIS NEON SWEATS A CITY OF ANGELS
WAITING ON SOME CURE THAT CAME
MOST THE TIME, I AM SCARED OF PEOPLE
MOST THE TIME, I AM SAFE AT HOME
I WANT TO BE YOUR FIRST-CLASS LETTER
PROTECTED TIGHTLY IN STYROFOAM

You sense Wonder
I sense Pain
When you feel your heart move
We feel fear again
You know you’re changing
You can taste the cost
I believe in habits
When you don’t know the cost
Sticking! Your hands in the air.
Without, a reason.
Staining! Your hands in the blood
Finding your own way out.
You made enemies
Standing apart
Separate reality
Selling fake art
Some caught us lying
Some said it’s real
When the blood gets up
Who denies the appeal?

Secrets, the weight will wear you out as you go
Never, never pain to share your love again
Steal Traps, will break when you are full of doubt
Fool Proof, I’ve been a fool to suffer you so long
Going Home
To a house I use to grieve
Silent Rooms
When the secrets finally leave
Long Ago, my heart was full of fear and pain
Time Moves, and the pain is not so near me now
Lock it up, I hide myself away and wait
Hide and seek, the point is to not be found again

WE WALKED AROUND FOR MILES
DODGING A DISEASE
SUFFOCATE THE TRIALS
COLOR CHANGING LEAVES
WHAT DID I MISS?
THE FLIPPING OF YOUR SWITCH
THE RIPPING OF A STITCH
THE FITTING OF YOUR SHOES
YOUR MOTHER WASN’T NICE TO YOU
YOU’VE SAID IT ONCE AGAIN
BUT ALL THE YEARS OF TALKING
NEVER LET THAT STORY END
I THINK THAT WE ARE LOST AGAIN
TANGENTS ON A TRAIN
NO ONE’S EVER CLOSE ENOUGH
SHUTTING DOORS COULD CONTAIN
SWITCHING AT THE STATION
YOU JUST FELL BEHIND
THE LITTLE GIRL YOU FROZE
IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME
I’VE BEEN LISTENING
…DRINKING IN OPINIONS
YOU’RE SO CONVINCING
YOU’RE ONE WHO’S HURTING
WE’VE BEEN EXISTING
YOU SAY YOU’RE KIDDING
THE SINKING-IST FEELINGS
AND YOU CAN NOT TAKE BACK

TONIGHT, I BOUNCE OFF CRASHING CARS
THE VIEW, FROM THE FALLING STARS
STAY HID, JUST TO FEEL PREPARED
SPEAKING, WHEN I DON’T KNOW WHY
CHIN UP, WE ARE NOT SO ALONE
RUNNING, TO SOMETHING YOU CAN POSTPONE
ENOUGH, OF FEELING OVERWHELMED
EFFORT, THE FEELINGS YOU GIVE
I PULLED MYSELF APART TO FIT
ONLY ON THE SIDE OF IT
I GAVE AWAY THE TINY BITS
WANTING TO FIT THROUGH THE DOOR

HOLDING TREASURE UP IN THE AIR
BUT NO ONE SEES YOU THERE
YOU’LL NEED TO BE MUCH TALLER
IF THEY’RE GOING TO HEAR YOUR PRAYERS
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN THIS TIRED?
WAITING ON THE AVALANCHE
IT’S SO HARD TO FALL ASLEEP (THESE DAYS)
WITH ALL THIS FOR-EIGN HEARTACHE
BUT IF YOU WATCH ME FALL FROM GRACE
WHILE I DROP MY SPINNING PLATES
I DON’T CARE
WHERE THEY ALL WILL GO
CAN YOU HELP ME CLEAR SOME SPACE?
WHILE YOU COUNT MY EVIL TRAITS
I DON’T CARE
WHERE YOU THINK I’LL GO

DESTINY, SOMETHING IN WATER
MAKES ME SEE THE CHOICES I MAKE ARE
MOCKING ME MY REFELECTION LAUGHING
IT POINT AND SEES A STARE I CAN’T BREAK
I STUBBORNLY CONVINCE THE ACTOR
WHO HAPPILY this MOMENT FOREVER?
IT’S HURTING ME THE MORE I LOOKED AWAY
POISONING THE MORE THAT I PRAY
I’M SLEEPING ALL DAY
JUST WAITING FOR A PARADE
I ANGERILY POPPED MY BUBBLE
SO CONSTANTLY I CAN’T BELIEVE
THIS EBONY SOMETHING TO COMPREHEND
IS BATHING ME I CANNOT BEND

I MET THE BEST DEALERS IN REHAB
AND I SILENCED MYSELF FOR DAYS
WHILE ALL MANNER OF SPIRITS CAME FORWARD
I SHOOK THEIR HANDS AND WE PARTED WAYS
I’VE LOST MYSELF IN EXPECTATIONS
HOLDING ON TO YOUR LIVING ROOM DRAPES
I WANTED LOVE THAT COULD SOOTHE ME
I DIDN’T RECOGNIZE THE MANY CHANGING SHAPES
EARLY SUNDAY MORNING WHEN I RETURN
I DIDN’T KNOW WHO I WOULD BE
WE LET MOMENTS PASS LIKE SECONDS
AND GROW OLD WITHOUT APOLOGY
NOW THESE THOUGHTS THEY SURROUND ME
EXPECTING ME TO MAKE MY MOVE
THEY FAIL TO UNDERSTAND HOW CLOSE WE ARE
THAT IF I JERK, WE ALL WOULD LOSE
THE WEEDS THEY ARE UNLOVED FLOWERS
AND THE COLORS THEY ARE THE STAINS
WAITING ON LIFE FOR THE EXCEPTIONS
WE NEVER LEARN TO HANDLE OUR PAIN

LET DOWN EASY
LIGHTS FLASHING EMPTY
TO FALL IN SLIDING
ICY HILLS LET OUT NEATLY
I WAS WANTING
TO GET IT RIGHT BEFORE SLIDING
MOMENTS SPEAKING
SOMEONE ELSE COULD TAKE MY SPOT
THE NEEDLE’S WEARING DOWN
YOU’RE STILL HANGING AROUND
I DON’T KNOW WHERE…WE… GO
THIS IS TOO SINCERE
THAT’S NOT MY BIGGEST FEAR
I DON’T KNOW WHERE…WE… GO
PLAY CATCH WITH INSECTS
THE ANNOYANCE OF MY MOOD
BYGONE’S THAT HANG ON
WHEN I ONLY HURT MYSELF
THIS MAJESTY OF AGONY
THESE STANDARDS THAT PURSUE
IMAGINE WHAT’S HAPPENS
IF I COULD JUST MAKE UP MY MIND
WORDS FREEZE…AS I FALL BENEATH
ALONE & COLD, AS I GO
