crawl outta bed
in a cloudy haze
my head still ringing from the sound
what reigns over me
what governs me
is a cause for certain alarm
maybe I'm lost, maybe I'm blind
maybe you're not what you seem like
maybe I'm wrong
boy, boy
we've only just begun
boy, boy
we've only just begun
borne outta fate
or maybe fear
I'm lead to half believe you're here
drawn from memory
your words wash over me
i stand conquered with you near
maybe you're lost, maybe you're blind
maybe I'm not what I seem like
maybe we're wrong

The many times I’ve tried
to conjure up the past
I found no answers there,
I found a dream instead.
In many ways I’ve died.
Each moment fails to arrive.
As if I breathe in retrospect,
As if I’m always somewhere else.
I move away from the crowd,
I step away from the edge.
I have no questions left,
I have no defense.
Too high, too low, too big, too slow.
To fight, divide, defend, destroy.
Invade, invest, invent, employ.
An eye for an eye, I
I remain still, I remain still.
Let the earth turn as it wills,
I remain still.
Too proud, too bold, too weak, too old.
To fight, divide, defend, destroy.
Invade, invest, invent, employ.
An eye of an eye, I
I remain still.

settle down, settle down, here we go
seeing as there is no cause for alarm
so, settle down, settle down
settle down, settle down, here we go
seeing as there is no fear of any harm
yeah, settle down, settle down
quiet now, quiet now
let the words come slow
the hour long, is something wrong?
there's nothing wrong
there is no pain, realm of truth or eternal word
the minutes tick and take a toll
you got your head down, head low waiting for
the bomb to drop, the sky to fall but it won't
you're assured, you're assured
let go, let go
let the words come slow
here we go, here we go
here we go, here we go

Fault has spread its wings in jest
and shadows over my way
I remember everything i mean to forget
and I've cried an ocean but the tide can't seem to draw you in
Take me up to the roof of your sky
up to where you hide
I know it's been too many years in between
But for the meantime
In the meantime
This searching soul has found its way home
without a peace in me that fell away
Crowded feet now block in the in-door
I've been struck down and I can't seem to get up again

Faith
that has not quite failed
has not quite called upon you yet
in careless hands on an idle day fades
In breaks
Oh, in waves
and when it turns it complicates
Let the taint of vice and all its weight fall away
Lights fade
Let them melt into the never
and away from fears
the insincere
to rise on other shores
Lights fade
Let them melt into the never
and away from here
and all your tears
to rise on other shores
Hope
will have you slip
will have you grip
will have you clutch onto loose straw and string
In wait
Oh, In vain
and when it turns it devastates
Let the crutch of age and all its weight fall away

what runs through my veins
and fades as quick as it begins
is a sense that i exist
in the here and now and not within
of this i'm sure.
what creeps in like light
and finds its way up my spine
is a pulse that survives
even when my body dies
of this i'm sure.

This time there will be no signs
No warm glow, no safe confines
This day shall raze by fire
Its embers die as the light in my eyes
A poison warm
A poison kind
A poison warm and reaffirming I’m right
A poison kind
This taste sharp and precise
My tongue loose but no words arrive
These days can just roll on by
And I don’t mind
All hunger subsides
A poison warm
A poison kind
A poison warm and reaffirming I’m right
A poison kind

As wrong as you were right
Well, never you mind
We’ll chalk it to pride
Or any such other appetite
Oh, well, never you mind
The Milk with knives in it
The Sweets and Cancers intertwine
Hush now child
No tears
All this is
Is a crude color
Now, No tears
For all this is
Is a cold color
Hard and contrive
Well, never you mind
You have lived and loved and lost
And Died
No tears
All this is
Is a cruel color
No tears
All this is
Is cold surrender

dear mother i'm fine
a little tired, grown a little quiet
as with the shape of all things
i seem to change
dear father i've heard
in whispers slow words of caution grow
louder each day
and say
be aware the water bites
and stains in visible light
be aware the water bites
and floods with time
in time
the letters pile up
with no intent to be sent
dear mother i'm scared
i'm afraid
