The man in the moment is fresh out the guillotine, the silence is blind as it feeds on your energy But lately it’s painted deep blue as the water, as comfort she drips from the edge of the corner So rewrite the pages that make up a stale routine, when conscious is failing and sleep is your enemy You’ll wake up and shake off the skin that you’re wearing, and out breaks the day with a new sense of feeling What’s your name, what’s your name boy? I’ve seen that face before and I know you well. So we can laugh it off, take it all We’ve done that before, and I can hurt some more Your statements are plain, cut lines through my face I still play the game, you said to refrain, fuck that I’m coming back for more ————————————————————————————————— I’m undercover you won’t see me with the lights out, I’m into shelter turn the sun down I’ll puppeteer and pull some strings a little, oh won’t you tell me am I supposed to feel, at all? And I hold, hold to you Hold to you

Come lay your tears on my skin, and call off your dogs for this moment we’re in For my hands are tied, I look for a sign to believe again Toss away all of my plans, run for the sake of this man that I am, A quick glance behind, I see you’ve survived With my heart in your hands Show a little sleight of hand, it’s funny because I know that you can My hands are tied, I look far behind To believe again I don’t think you understand, it’s funny because I know that you can My hands are tied, I see you’ve survived With my heart in your hands. Try to run if you can ————————————————————————————————— Back down, by the tip of your tongue By the weight of your lies, This comes undone Wait for, for the end of the winter When you let down your hair And you open your eyes Back down, from the edge of this feeling Take a short breath of air Before you fall again I don’t think you understand, it’s funny Because I know, that you can My hands are tied, I look far behind To believe again I pack my bags and run, think I’ve had enough Who the hell was I? Tried to overcome When it boils down, don’t interrupt me By all means you can, try to understand When my time is up, of knowing what it’s like I don’t think you care, I’m out of love ————————————————————————————————— Gave my two cents when you let me, with my back to the wall A loose grip on the steering wheel, and nine lives to your one The night rides on a feeling The roof slipped from the ceiling, a mind stripped of it’s thought The first flight has departed, and I slept through the call I hope time doesn’t catch me

Balldrop 01:08
Ball drop, you’ve cooked the landing Proceed at your own free will Great height, but not overwhelming I feared I would fall too soon But don’t feel no shame about it, The look on your face Could strip the illusion and fade in the getaway And don’t loose no sleep around it, This dream that we’re in Is comfort at best under sheets that we’re sleeping in You said love please wake up, I’m sorry I have just departed

Forget Me 05:22
Cut my ties with the feeling, and burn it down For the love that I’m bleeding, is over now So when I rise in the morning, and fool around With my time that I’m wasting Is that alright? You might find me on the floor Mind’s been climbing up the walls Molly never do me wrong, but she’s been playing up a lot Acting fairly nonchalant, Then she puts me through withdrawals Girl I’ll stay who said I’m leaving? This is not a judgement call, Think of it just how you want Take it leave it not for sure, I could love you just for show We could end it unresolved, I’ll be back for something more Girl I’ll stay who said I’m living? Because my heads in a rush, with my thoughts in the deep end I test out giving up, it’s easy now Times been in a rut, you say that you could fall back to it all in But that’s not good enough just leave it open, keeping the thoughts, keeping the thoughts in. Forget me, Forget me, It’s not me, Forget me I cut my ties with the feeling, and burn it down For the love that I’m bleeding, is over now So where did you find me? You said it could be, But love I’m sure, it’s over now ————————————————————————————————— Sound of the morning she takes what she wants, leaves me with nothing no feel or control I've got no feeling no feelings at all, Take it or leave it I'm taking it all Fuck what you say in a sec I'll be gone, I can't confront it but I could be wrong If this is a joke I'm not laughing it off, this isn't me and it's gone far too long

No Problem 04:42
Confess your mind unable, to take your thoughts as stable It’s under-said but due, the days that you skate through, dreams in the cars rearview Case, point, label, set fire to your nature it’s all so self induced Face in the pavement, I’m in a state like you- -knew, or what you never learned from Through and through, it proves, In heavy conversation Lucid is the air right? Hold it in your head boy You’re not home Cold feet in your dead sights, Hope to hell the times right To phone home No change face it I could be okay, But fuck that let’s go and get stoned New fears, Ideas mixed up with old ways Loose ends will seal my tongue Display your minds emotion, at least for now it’s open It’s all in front of you Takes one to know one, and I feel a lot of what you- -knew, or what you never learned from Through and through, it proves, In heavy conversation ————————————————————————————————— No problem when it takes too long, Fine to let the day drag on Stop to ease the feeling, thoughts are in the ceiling I can take the long way home, before dawn
