Poison
I could waste away with politics,
or drown myself with wine.
Confine myself to solitude,
and inject poison into my mind.
Meanwhile outside, everything still grows,
Wild like fire and fury, while I wish alone.
You know that I could feel the poison in my mind.
You know that I could feel the venom deep inside.
I feel like I am in an endless night,
like i am falling through the restless sky.
You can't erase them.
Every lie you've told.
For then they'd leave you,
and haunt you nevermore.
I could find myself in paradise.
Walk on endless shores.
Cut my feet so drastically before I beg for more.
Meanwhile, in front of me, under every stone,
lies a thousand reasons with a thousand rhymes.
You can't erase them.
Every lie you've told.
For then they'd leave you,
and haunt you nevermore.
You can't erase them.
Every lie you've told.
For then they'd leave you,
so face them forever more.
The End Of The Line
It hurts so bad inside
Dialing into the payphone that's outside of the show
Cause everywhere I go my head is just a wreck
And it's no secret I've been dealing with
But all I know is that I want to go
To the end of the line but it's obviously time
To stop this empty train and let somebody in
A hundred thousand nights
Always moving to finally feel alright
But so unsure if it will endure
To the end of the line but it's obviously time
To stop this empty train and let somebody in
Cause even here tonight where I'm so wound up inside, I know that it's time
All Heads Down
Where did it begin?
The skip in time, or the spark of sin.
Where corrupted minds were let to stand with
a head and tongue intact.
All I ask is how we carry on.
Tricked and blind, raped and robbed.
Shutting our mouths so not to speak,
and falling down to our knees.
All heads down to bow.
All heads down to bow to nothing
because nothing will save you.
It's you and yourself alone
because in the end, you're own your own.
So don't crawl into the pitiful
burrow of followers.
Where time erodes the strength and will,
we've got to hold to withstand the disarray
that brings us down to our knees.
All heads down to bow.
All heads down to bow to nothing
because nothing will save you.
It's you and yourself alone
because in the end, you're own your own.
So don't crawl into the pitiful
burrow of followers.
Stay upright and strong,
before the choice is gone,
and freedom fades like promises
made for the trade
of the vote in the game.
My Little Monkey Wrench
Baby, I am waiting for a ride
And it may take some time
But you know I would fly if I could fly
Climb if I could climb and my dreams
As everything with me, are just like that
Where I see the place I need to be
But not the way there
Cause all the things that we have seen
Are all the things we want to show
But all the things that we have seen
Are not always the things we ever really know
Baby, this is such a pretty mess
My little monkey wrench
And it sits where all the machinists
Can examine it
And that's fine, I like reading their minds
As they're figuring odds and times
It's pointless, but it's fine
There's nothing to find
Cause all the things that we have seen
Are all the things we want to show
But all the things that we have seen
Are not always the things we ever really know
Under Everything
What's there to think about?
It's coming in clear.
It al changed so fast, and I disappeared.
And the time it took to come out of where I'd been
was like coughing bricks.
My head was thick and heavy with wondering,
like the time when I was ready for the end.
I will be under everything.
I'm coming closer than you think.
Time is such a wasted luxury.
What do you think of all these last years?
It all seemed so slow, til they disappeared.
And the will it took to climb out of that hole
that i'd been in
(Past the dirty tricks, full of politics)
left me stretched thin,
like the time I was ready for the end...
I will be under everything.
I'm coming closer than you think.
Time is such a wasted luxury.
We are on the wall in the second hand slow dance,
waltzing round on our way down.
Just below it all.
Under everything waltzing round so slow,
I found that time is such a wasted luxury.
I will be under everything.
I'm coming closer than you think.
Time is such a wasted luxury.
There Are Already Roses
So, I guess by now, You're already cool.
Nothing like earlier today,
when I thought that all the things
that you had said...
You just got carried away.
How do you return from a weekend like this?
This is a fucked up holiday.
I'm feeling confused.
I'm feeling, not mislead...
But like i'm just a fool.
And if you say it now,
there are already roses on our grave.
I've never counted on the road quite like this.
It's the only solid thing today.
Cause i'm just holding on,
hardly awake, so mixed up in everything.
And if you say it now,
there are already roses on our grave.
Keep It Together
Keep it together now
As you wish as you know how
It'll all work out
When nothing ever seems to be
Exactly what you need now
Hold fast now, to drench yourself and last
All that you know
Is all that you've figured out
But you'll never land again
Until you stop falling down
Don't let yourself wither now
Perpindicular to the ground
It'll all work out
And don't ever doubt the days
As if they're not apt to change now
It'll all come around
So brace yourself and last
All that you know
Is all that you've figured out
But you'll never land again
Until you stop falling down
So alive, even cut down to size
We're here to recognize our place in time
The roll we play, the days we make
And the ones made without us around
We all must carry on
When we can't carry on with what we want now
All that you know
Is all that you've figured out
But you'll never land again
Until you stop falling down
The Ebb And Flow
I get deflated thinking about this now
but i've got got so far away
from where I thought I would be
and this town with it's burning air
and downpour everyday is weighing hard on me.
But I can't fight the ebb and flow,
it's still pulling me.
And shifting all the time,
the ebb and flow pulling me with it,
asking me all the time to give into it.
I'm equating this town
as this thing that defines me
but where I go I still will be.
And i'm wrong so long as I remain
letting the past hold on to me,
letting myself get lost in it.
But I can't fight the ebb and flow,
it's still pulling me.
And shifting all the time,
the ebb and flow pulling me with it,
asking me all the time to give into it.
Bottomless Seas
Just like this once
when I was just like a door
open to anything
open to restless nights.
It feels the same
like i'm burning for the flame,
the fire in the night,
I burn for it despite the journey,
I believe, that leads to bottomless seas.
And the hard ground,
the barren and frozen ground,
it seems so hard to cross it
cause I'm walking backwards.
But this journey, I believe,
will lead to bottomless seas.
Rolling in the twilight for all time
that swallows every fire.
The fire that grows.
Don't calm me down
my head is starting to pound.
Please don't change anything.
I am still waking up
to these old sounds,
the same kind that drove me out
are leading me back.
Now I've been walking in circles.
But this journey, I believe,
will lead me to bottomless seas.
Rolling in the twilight for all time
that swallows every fire.
The fire that grows.
Ink And Lead
In the distance, far away but clear
Was a light that blinded everything and near
Was an opening so inviting
That question and fear just disappeared
Then the path was seen
Like recalling dreams
With the wits of knowing them both apart
Hold on
Hold onto the feeling that pulls us through
And we will survive time after time
And all these dreams we speak
And words we read won't be
Just ink and lead, or sound from breath
Better left just burning in the coals
Hold on
Hold onto the feeling and the reason to
Hold on
Hold onto these four words, "In love with you"
It seems like we have the same dreams
It seems like we want the same things
A beginning
So right now, there's no doubt
Hold on
Hold onto the feeling and the reason to
Hold on
Hold onto these four words, "In love with you"
Hold on... [x6]
This Early Grave
Take it away, I've had enough
And I should've known better
I should've known better
Take it away, my head is low
Like a burning lantern
I should've known better
In time my reactions slow
All day, running high and low
I try to stay distracted
But it's calling me in
In a bad way, in a nervous tone
That I should remember
I should've known better
In time my reactions slow
And I know the reason
In time my reactions slow
But I've got a reason
That I'm regarding
This early grave, this early grave
As my new garden
Take it away, I've had enough
And I should've known better
I should've known better
Take it away, my head is low
Like a burning lantern
I should've known better
In time my reactions slow
And I know the reason
In time my reactions slow
But I've got a reason
That I'm regarding
This early grave, this early grave
As my new garden
Giver
Dream wild in waves of confidence and heart
Don't underestimate the power of your part
Throw the rules away
Trust your gut and make it
On your own
Don't underestimate the glories of the road
Because when you're on your own you've got it all
Throw the rules away
To stand and deliver now.
All is yours
I don't want to sit back to slack and waste it all
Since surrounded with the "Hearts and Souls"
I'll get back on my feet, wash my hands clean
And roll back to the front to sing out
"Here we go!"
Here we go, here we go, here we go...
Throw the rules away
To stand and deliver now.
All is yours
I don't want to sit back to slack and waste it all
Since surrounded with the "Hearts and Souls"
I'll get back on my feet, wash my hands clean
And roll back to the front to sing out
"Here we go!"
