The Only Way Is Up
03:12
|

it wasn’t it what I planned
I hit rocks instead of land
I ran another way
all the maps aren’t drawn the same
hit a wall and punched a hole through
I know there’s a home to crawl to now
when I break all my luck
the only way is up
in midnight gridded lanes
all the houses looked the same
hanging upside down
a mountain range won't weigh an ounce
caught under a mile of burden
I know there’s a way to turn around
when I break all my luck
the only way is up

Sea of Hate
02:19
|

We got a mad desire. It's flowing from your heart through my veins. It's a roarin fire, but the tide threatens to wash away the flame. I'm burnin for your love, you're drownin in my sea of hate. We got a raw power, it's stronger than i ever thought I'd know. Here in the midnight hour it ain't no match for the undertow. I'm burnin for your love, you're drownin in my sea of hate.

Don’t Make Me Lonely
02:43
|

cold wind blowing
the fire’s glowing
keep me warm
I’m crawling through the storm
pull me closer
my cheek to your shoulder
I can’t do much
here without your love
Don’t make me lonely
I couldn't handle
this world without you
don't wanna be alone
in a world so cruel
when you feel ragged
your tears on my jacket
I’ll dry them up
hold you til they're gone
just stand here a minute
can’t stop you from spinning
but I’ll share the weight
when I hear you say
don’t make me lonely
I couldn't handle
this world without you
don't wanna be alone
in a world so cruel

Where to Walk
02:39
|
|||
In spite of all the evidence in front of me, i ignore the thing that i don't want to know. How to reconcile what i don't want to see with the fact that i may never let it go. Tell myself we're not repeating history, but the seeds of doubt within me start to grow. Don't you wanna see how we got to be? Don't you wanna know why you are in a world of shit? When you just live in it, its so hard to know where to walk, in the dark without the light or way. Keep on going cuz its all you ever done. Hopin you may live to see a brighter day, don't just wither up and dry out in the sun. Don't you wanna see who you're gonna be? Don't you wanna show you weren't all talk? In a world of shit, when you just live in it, its so hard to know where to walk.

Let Me Out
04:06
|
|||
I pulled the chains
designed escapes
I climbed up to a better view
one thousand days
I lived this way
I lived to ripen with the fruit
let me out
let me out
all the spirits have been singing
in the corners of the house
let me out
let me out
I don’t want to see another
hammer falling from the clouds
I don't want to talk
my phone is off
I know you tried to get through
I thought I could
be understood
beyond a signal from you
let me out
let me out
all the spirits have been singing
in the corners of the house
let me out
let me out
I don’t want to see another
hammer falling from the clouds
so many times I hid my heart
I’ll make it out To play the part
so many times
I played the part

The Nearest Window
05:12
|
|||
High bright day. Shine my ray. Open the nearest window and let me in. Sway my trees. Blow my breeze. Open the nearest window and let me in. Chaos song, right my wrong. Open the nearest window and let me in. Soft return. Heal my burns. Open the nearest window and let me in. Fall away. Siren Day. Open the nearest window and let me in.

Bless My Soul
02:44
|

glass eyes reappearing
ballpoint on the paper
writing the same things over
wipe the slate clean
hallucinate a way out
what do you see?
are you watching over me?
bless my soul
bring the sunlight streaming back in
make me whole
never answered for what I can't control
I’ve been hearing visions
holding onto you when you’re
running in your sleep
where are you taking me?
bless my soul
bring the sunlight streaming back in
make me whole
never answered for what I can't control

How This Ends
03:01
|
|||
I feel somethin crawlin around my brain. Is it a bad idea? Is it the thought i want? I'm learning to understand the pain. When to ignore the signs, when to pretend I'm fine, but every other day it's such a drain. Am i the boring one? Am i holding back your fun? Wasting daydreams waiting on a train. I never hop on in, how do I choose a direction when it could be a loss, could be a gain? I'll play it as it lays. Shakin off my old ways. Bide my time hummin the old refrain, followin where it bends. I don't know how this ends.
