World of Your Own
00:44
|
|||
|
Take the long walk alone
‘Cause even home isn’t home
That’s where I’d prefer to go
Not lined up in rows
Slowly close up in a world of your own
Don’t make it known

Untitled Song #1
02:45
|
|||
|
My match broke in half
And your fireproof back had yet to be burned
Underwater, underwater
They stood all around and they talked to your frown
Then you returned
Why bother? Why bother?
I follow you down
It’s much worse than burning my eyes in the light
Stage fright
Wake up unsurprised
There’s a sick stalker who hates that you’re fine
It’s showtime
You’re not coming down
And those bars all around are locking you up
Soothsayer was right
It’s much worse than the man in the moon at my side
|
||||
3. |
||||
|
The words are loud but it’s overcrowded
So you’re shouting right in my face
Something about how I’m sticking out in everybody’s way
We’re surely loving what you’re slowly becoming
We always hoped that you might change
Hooking up with who you think you’re above
And coloring with every shade
We’re surely loving what you’re slowly becoming
We always hoped that you might change

Get Up and Go
01:43
|
|||
|
Never could be who you think they know
Get up and go
Tell her that you’re here to lose anyone you could abuse
Knocked all around your head’s up the spout
Still keeping him down
Paint dripping on the floor
Think it’s the color that she wore
Guess you’re not needed
It’s not hard for you believe it
Left him to me he’ll layer cement into my head
He can’t see you’ve made it clear
You want him anywhere but here
Guess he’s not needed
(Guess you’re not needed)
It’s not hard for you to believe it
|

Walking By
01:05
|
|||
|
You’re lost between the sides
Wicked tries to break the brick: a thick infatuation
Air puffed up sunset eyes that never dry
And if they did you’d get standing ovations
Never seen you before but you’ve been here quite a while
Don’t come walking by
You’re lost between the sides
Wicked tries to break the brick: a thick infatuation
|

Lullaby
01:02
|
|||
|
Sticks get softer every day
Strung out because they broke your bones the same way
They’re blocking and singing
And I’m still waiting for ringing
Everybody wants to see you (Everybody wants to free you)
Please come by (Just get high)
We’ll sing you a lullaby (I’ll help you more than they could try)
We will both protect you and haunt you (Obsessing ‘cause you know they don’t want you)
And be there whenever you like (I’ll be here whenever you like)

Jacob's Ladder
00:27
|
|||
|
Sideways and crossing underneath
There’s no deciding, I don’t want to leave
Wish I didn’t talk, I hate where it leads
|
||||
8. |
Flashlight
01:12
|
|||
|
Everything is wrapped inside that you might need
People talk so much it’s hard to know who to believe
And you will sacrifice the one you know is truly right
The battery-dead flashlight
The paperboy’s got all the stories that you need
Everybody searches through the sand down by the sea
I promise you belong under the same stars as me
They’re everybody’s flashlight
|

Top Tier
01:12
|
|||
|
You’re up in the top tier
And I’m walking around here like it’s fine
Waiting for someone’s approval to be one
They stare at each other ‘cause you can’t discover the right lines
Warmed up with a fever, but I feel cold when I see her
Quiet for a while ‘cause if she talks she’s never right
You’re leaving it behind if it needs another try
Got plenty of nothing but still fucking up something all the time
Got plenty of nothing but still afraid of something all the time
Trying hard to wake her but she’s still asleep hours later
|

Clashing Choirs
00:46
|
|||
|
She stuck notes in your bright red raincoat
All of them soaked
Forget everyone, walk away slow, let them all go
Do it now, no one cares to see
And I really wish that’s how I could be
|
||||
11. |

|
Lana left ‘cause your world is in your head
And there’s endless missing links to the chain that helps you think
Tonight you’ll play the part and be our shining star in any sort of way
Lana left ‘cause your world is in your head
The wind blows, warping the window and all those things you’d never care to know
You held your nose, hoping the red wine won’t flow
Like all those things you don’t want them to know
They’ll keep you home, you’re better left alone
They’ll keep you home, you’re better left alone
|

New Round
02:00
|
|||
|
Making up stories inside your head
And the real ones come down like a sliding sled
Can’t remember them now, the snow keeps layering
You’re not what you wanted, you don’t mean anything
Your new kid’s gone with nowhere to go
Left your old one behind about three months ago
Nobody cares ‘cause you don’t tell them anything
You’re not like you promised: a rock that keeps weathering
Walk around your new cave every night
Tell me all of the things I thought that he might
Locked faces, holding places for a whole new round
I waited, fever breaking like you’re coming down, down, down
I’ll make up stories inside my head
Ones that go and take back all the shit that I said
It’s not like I wanted to ever say anything
|

Red Hot Sky
01:25
|
|||
|
Go home, don’t be who you are
Everybody knows it’s not too hard
Throw your papers and all the neighbors watch you walk on by
Go home a little later, don’t have to tell them why
And I still favor the broken heart maker
Who walks in the red hot sky
Put clothes on their hangers in the sun out to dry
And I still favor the broken heart maker
Who walks in the red hot sky
My sunburned fingers have pain that lingers
And all your wages ignoring pages like I didn’t try
Go home, don’t be who you are
Everybody knows it’s not too hard
|

The Damage She's Done
00:33
|
|||
|
When you’re all away she just yells at the sun
(You’ve got a way to make everyone love)
And use him to light up a smoke when she’s done
(The things that I can’t seem to stay away from)
But she doesn’t know ‘bout the damage she’s done
(But sooner or later it’s what I’ll become)
|
||||
15. |
Underneath the Sun
01:05
|
|||
|
Picking up the people around you
And showing off the ones you seem to think look a lot like you
Don’t stay too long underneath the sun (beating hard)
‘Cause you can’t fight back, body burning up (beating hard)
Much too far for me to reach out to
But close enough to watch and listen for any kind of clue
Don’t stay too long underneath the sun (beating hard)
‘Cause you can’t fight back, body burning up (beating hard)
|

Inside Out
00:21
|
|||
|
Making sure everybody’s inside out
And hiding away while you wait
But you could come out even if they’re around
And you could go anywhere you want to
|

17. |
Red Giant
01:33
|
|||
|
It’s true the hall is barely ever awake
All the doors lock while we stay away
Rain falls just to keep us at bay
We all walk in and stay all day
Lights off and we all huddle, you’re trouble
Throw out what you buy to exist
That’s my one wish
A true calling that you’ll always resist
‘Cause you stay here on the waiting list
She’ll come around and put my head to her fist
It’ll help greatly, come and try this
A red giant, yeah that’s real subtle, unlovable
Throw out what you need to exist
That’s my one wish
Just use it all and get some more tonight
While she’s asleep so you don’t have to fight
Run up no one’s looking, it’ll be alright
|

Garnet and Blue
02:14
|
|||
|
We were alone
You, me, and everyone
Pretend to be half drunk on the phone
You got nothing to show for what you say that you know
Thorns and butler filling up your mouth
Well, here’s thirty-one with your crying clown
Another round came through and shot you down
But you’ve got it all figured out on your own
Say you’re never alone (Say you’re always alone)
You were never nothing, I hope you know
Thorns and butler filling up your mouth
With things that go unnoticed unless I’m around
Every plan’s a problem ‘cause it might go wrong
But you’d only stop if it takes too long
Too close to think that you’re too far gone
Too close to say that you’re too far gone
|

Roots
00:34
|
|||
|
Keep it here, keep it down
I don’t want it all around
Eyes are clear, guard is down
Keep it that way, don’t make a sound
Now you’re real, now you’ve drowned
In the place that I never found
I’m not here, I’m still down
Pulling roots still stuck in the ground
Nighttime’s ending and I’m day-bound
|

Always Right
02:10
|
|||
|
If you happened to recognize me I’d be surprised
There’s nothing much you’d like to see, at least in the light
So don’t be afraid, it’s not too bright
The sky is gray and you’re always right
You’re locked up but you’re not in hell
Everybody tries to break your cell
Can’t remember waking up
Half-empty tubes and empty cups
Keep all your gold in an empty bowl
They’d never know
Can’t find a place among you
Your mouth’s a tomb, your head’s stuck inside, still alive
But don’t be afraid, it’s not too bright
The sky is gray and you’re always right
Creeping down the staircase to see if anybody decides to leave
There’s a hole, you can’t fill the space
I try to patch it up everyday
Thoughts drown when I talk out loud, enjoy the crowd
Can’t find a place among you
Your mouth’s a tomb, your head’s stuck inside, still alive
But don’t be afraid, it’s not too bright
The sky is gray and you’re always
But don’t be afraid, it’s not too bright
The sky is gray and you’re always right

Different Place
01:53
|
|||
|
Please don’t fix any locks that I break
I had a key but I gave it away
Same room is a different place
I guess everybody felt that they didn’t like you very much
But I didn’t care ‘cause I was in love with the things they judged
I don’t want any other escape
A little dose won’t make it okay
Same room is a different place
Doesn’t matter much to you that it’s not the way it was
But I’ll stay quiet, more than I did when I held my tongue
I guess everybody felt that they didn’t like you very much
But I didn’t care ‘cause I was in love with the things they judged
|

She stuck notes in your bright red raincoat
All of them soaked
Forget everyone, walk away slow, let them all go
Do it now, no one cares to see
And I really wish that’s how I could be
Come and look over here
They all call you names
Clashing choirs still appear and anyone can sing
Skin’s all cracked
Better get that banknote or he’ll be breaking your bones
Walk on down, tell me I’m not able
‘Cause I’ll be straying away
There’s really only one place I’d stay
Do it now, no one cares to see
And I really wish that’s how I could be
Come and look over here
They all call you names
Clashing choirs still appear and anyone can sing
|

Untitled Song #2
00:32
|
|||
|
Talk to yourself, no one’s listening
But when they do your tongue keeps twisting
Unspoken words that you’re sifting
Those are the ones that we’re missing
