Gone, and now you've left me waiting
But it's no surprise that I'd be
Songs, that were meant to be perfect
Have been slightly tuned out of key
I'm done, your lack of dedication
Has been so frustrating to me
You run, your mouth on your pedestal
Like you think I can't hear or see
I had to let you drift away
It's not fair that you stayed
I'm done with second chances the decision has been made
I had to let you drift away
It's not fair that you stayed
There's no more second chances
Move on, there's no room left here for you
And I'm in the driver's seat
So long, head off on those vacations
And we both can share some relief
I had to let you drift away
It's not fair that you stayed
I'm done with second chances
The decision has been made
I had to let you drift away
It's not fair that you stayed
There's no more second chances son
Because you were floating like a
And so it seemed to me that you were floating like a
Grey cloud
And I was watching you as you were floating like a
Grey cloud
And I was noticing that you were floating like a
Grey cloud
And now I'm stopping you because you're floating like a
Grey cloud
Grey cloud
Grey cloud
You'll separate and split away with nowhere left to stay
There's no more second chances the deception has been made

Counting Seconds
04:23

Trace my footsteps back to
Graduation day at the hall
A pattern of circles that stretch on for years
I can’t coordinate these feet at all
I’m slaving away, but feeling alright
I’m pulled by the current of my life
And i’m not the only one
Who's pushing for dreams to come along
Whoa whoa
I’m counting seconds here
Whoa whoa
And I’m on my way there
Whoa whoa
If you feel a little lost out there in the world
Know we’re all
We’re all on our way there
I don’t know what to do but I'll do it
Yeah I’ll do it for the best of me
I don’t know what you’ll do, but you’ll do it
See through it
We’re counting seconds here
We’re all on our way there
Pour me something monday morning
Can't be thought of at all
Here's to another week of scheduled hours
I’m always on call
So I'm walking through the tunnel of life
But will I eventually see the light
Or shiver and splinter on
The sidelines of the track tonight
Whoa whoa
I'm counting seconds here
Whoa whoa
And i'm on my way there
Whoa whoa
If you feel a little lost out there in the world
Know we're all
We’re all on our way there
I don't know what to do but I'll do it
Yeah I'll do it for the best of me
I don't know what you'll do but you'll do it
See through it
We're counting seconds here
We're all on our way there
Make the best of it before it's done
Or you're gone
I don't know what you'll do but you'll do it
See through it
I’m counting seconds here
Yeah I’m on my way there
We’re counting seconds here
We're all on our way

Not Worth Mentioning

The countless nights of such great heights
Driving you home but i don't wanna know
Where the night ends when i let you go
So we fly down the way
Driving you home to where i hope you'll stay
When you are gone, i know i'll lie awake
He said to me
Oh won't you take it lightly
Well that ripped right through me
It's not love but you still got me hanging along
So i still wonder often times
If this will ever come together you and i
Or wait forever as a score mark on your board
Lead me on with confusing ways
Are these often games that you would play to win
It feels like i am not worth mentioning
He said to me
Oh won't you take it lightly
Well that ripped right through me
It's not love but you still got me hanging along
So i'm calling to let you know i'm counting on you
Stay, stay with me
He said to me
Oh won't you take it lightly
Well that ripped right through me
You ripped right through
Oh won't you take it lightly
Well that ripped right through me
It's not love but you still got me hanging along
Yeah it's not love but you still got me hanging along

We're sober now
But waist deep in consequences pouring out
We're over now
I can't save a friendship that is going down
No helpful words helped to make you stay, you floated so far away
Keep possibility on display
We're older now
So for christ sake put the weapon down
A year from now
You'll bury the hatchet it will come around
My whole world turned when we met today
Exploding with words to say
awake the life of us from the grave
My whole world turned
My whole world turned
My whole world turned
Stay lifelong
Stay lifelong
Stay lifelong
Stay lifelong
Stay lifelong
Stay lifelong

The Empire
04:13

His words flow
You want nothing to do with this
The money speaks though
So the empire commits
Sometimes when life gets bad
You'll use your chemistry for
Waist deep earnings
Hiding open here
Avoid the force stay clear
Or you're leaving nothing left for me
There's no danger here
I am the one they fear
But they'll hunt you out eventually
The streets flow
It's a monopoly at risk
You better keep low
Or the crystal crumbles quick
You're not the upper hand
In fact you're entire
Exit plan's distorting
There's no danger dear
I am the one they fear
But they'll hunt you out eventually
You wear out of the frame
As the fade from white to grey rolls on
And you broke so far from me
When you tore this family
Apart
Hiding open here
And you're leaving nothing left for me
There's no danger dear
I am the one they fear
But they'll hunt you out eventually

Fairy Tales

Rule the masses, yeah you've been sold
On fairy tales that you've been told
No second glances, I will not fold
No prayer to save my soul
Throw the book away from me now
Because there's no second glances
So don't take your chances on me now
Stay away from me
Because you'll rock the boat
Just to see the waves crash down and roll over me
There are things that I can't see
So I will welcome my ghost in time
I'll stare straight forward because no one's in the sky
So with my hands by my side
Come what may I'm fine
Rule the masses, yeah you've been sold
On fairy tales that you've been told
No second glances, I will not fold
No prayer to save my soul
Nothing set you free, because the upper hold
Has stolen a soul to keep
And i still can't believe
Your swallowing what they feed
It's all a fighting force, a fear ridden army
So i will welcome my ghost in time
I'll stare straight forward because no one's in the sky
So with my hands by my side
Come what may i'm fine

Black And White
05:24

Maybe you're too black and white
You're black, and I'm every grey
Our eyes like the sky are blue, and I'm counting two
He always tells me
He always tells me all the time
She screams as she notices the
Cross-hair marked upon her chest
With a cry, it's about all that's left inside
You're gone, but you've not left
Still just ridiculous as ever
Phantom hate, not so clever
Hindering those who you hold so dear
Do you really want to help
Can't you just stay clear
Can't you just stay far from here
It's way too bright in here
For how dark this really is
Put away your fists and close your eyes
This should come as no surprise
He always tells me
He always tells me all the time
She screams as she notices the
Cross-hair marked upon her chest
Grabbing guns with bayonets
This love warfare of armed forgets
Leaving fields of shattered hearts
This once great love now, torn apart
With a cry, it's about all that's left inside
You're gone, but you've not left
Yet

Smog
00:59

|

Oh the height of these trees
Or even in the distance to the sky
I've given up
On feeling home
Burning up to walk all of these streets alone
But i thought i saw a star
Through all this smog
Blackening our windows
From the inside

Dead End
04:23
|
|

I'm counting all the stops that we've made
Somebody take this car and just remove the brakes
What does it take to deliver a sound
Oh what I'd pay to be there now
But money can't buy everything
All the seams fall apart
When I can't release my pain
So what can I take
All the seams fall apart
I just pound against the cage
So when will it break
I'm working late and drinking endlessly
Treading up the river pushing against me
A starving artist who's working at her hardest
And searching for the missing piece
All the seams fall apart
When I can't release my pain
So what can I take
All the seams fall apart
I just pound against the cage
So when will it break
It's feeling make believe
Why aren't these words ringing loud
Someone with a magic key
Unlock this voice to a crowd
Yeah i'm begging you now
So sell me solace
And i'll pay it off in loans
So sell me solace
And i'll pay it off in loans
All the seams fall apart,
Will we lose our way
Oh the more I know
The further i have to fall down
And with a broken back, I know I'll have to separate these pages
To wake up the same old when I die
