Subside

Only if you let me
Try
And only if you let me
Keep us alive
Close your eyes
Til we subside
The air starts to freeze
And the trees turn their leaves from green
Tearing at the seams
Only to be left tattered and in disbelief
How could have we
Not seen what will be our history
Blinded by greed
Trees turn their leaves from green
And now I see what I should have
You were looking for gold
But only lost your soul
Only lost your soul
Which one of these
Is the lesser of two evils
Better for us as people
Am I making enough noise
Can you hear my voice
Oh, we're losing it all too soon
It's just so easy to give up
It's just the way, you think
Everything is setup
Am I making enough noise?
Can you hear my voice yelling
Yelling
And now I see what I should've
You were looking for gold
But only lost your soul
Only lost your soul
Keep us alive
Close your eyes
Until we subside

Postpone
03:31
|

There's no escaping this
So show me a way out
To postpone the inevitable
Like someone left the stove on
A fire is born it's kindling
You walked away like every thing's fine
The fire rises we'll burn alive
We are all now on the floor
Make your way to the window the smoke flows throw the door
We're burning up
This could all have been avoided
If we just had not avoided
Everything
That had to do with us
Every decision
Has a consequence
I wish you knew that
And how can we live like this
Like every thing is alright
And they do not care at all
Just shift the blame off of their hands
We are all now on the floor
Make your way to the window
the smoke flows throw the door
We're burning up
This could all have been avoided
If we just had not avoided
Everything
That had to do with us

Dwell
04:51
|

And If I had the time to dwell
I'd never get anything done
So how could anyone
Exhaust, every ounce
Of themselves
On what's holding them down
Anchored by the ankle
Sunken towards the bottom, Oh
Never learned how to swim
So if I release would I really be free
There's a hole I've dug
A small grave,
To put all my mistakes to bed
Yet life is but a dream
And I will take my time to breathe in
And enjoy whatever little time that I have left before
I wake up, frustrated
I gave up, every little thing that I had
To make up, for all the bridges
That stayed up and I just never took the time to cross
And Caught up in a constant circle
You were a face that I could remember
everything washed away
years of erosion
the slowest decay
There's a hole I've dug
A small grave,
To put all my mistakes to bed
Yet life is but a dream
Oh
I will take my time to breathe in
And enjoy whatever little time that I have left before
I wake up, frustrated
I gave up, every little thing that I had
To make up, for all the bridges
That stayed up and I just never took the time to cross
Oh, it's over now
Let yourself be drawn away
It's been pulling us apart
Every day is just a pull away
Never took the time to cross
I'll just stay awake as we go our separate ways

Anchor
07:59
|

Ooooh
Ooooh
Like trying to break through a wall
swing of the hammer, I've tried it all
There must be something left in your veins
Carve it out with a jagged knife
Complete disregard for what's inside
And I don't, I don't mind but I know you do
I wish I would have known
Just how different the road goes
When I let you go
Cause I let you go alone
Ooooh
Ooooh
Writing a new chapter,
Drawing a blank, pen with no ink
A freshness within, but just on the brink
The fever (the fever), bed ridden for most days
the anger (the anger), hate rotten in your brain
Holds you down,
It's the anchor holding you down
I wish I would have known
Just how different the road goes
When I let you go
Cause I let you go alone
And it feels so good
Without a care in the world
No one to care in this world at all
And how far down can we go
Before we reach the floor
Self deprecated
Completely unmotivated
And deep down you must know
There must be something more
And how far down can we go
Before we reach the floor
Just let go,
Now you know that it's lost
And you'll have to make a new way
Without a sunken cost
Without a sunken cost
Well, just let go,
Now you know that it's lost
And you'll have to make a new way

Earthing
03:54
|

I'm getting too close now
I can feel the fire
I never planned to be right in the middle
Rational thought blinded by desire
Like when two strings get intertwined
It's hard to undo
without tying a knot
My stomach
is now a real work of art
But did we ever bother?
No one else's feelings matter
But our own
I should be more careful
Walking on eggshells
I have to believe
I'm doing right by you and me
How do I proceed?
So the ends justify the means?
Ignoring everything that tells us this is wrong
When it feels right
I Know I can't be alone
Facing a storm
A storm that I can't weather on my own
Can I do better, or am I doing fine?
Press rewind
We just have to find
Our rhythm
Found Within
How do I proceed?
So the ends justify the means?
Ignoring everything that tells us this is wrong
When it feels right
Am I doing better or will we be alright?
