Halloween Photo
Isn't it crazy how you think you know
someone so well, farewell
I should've realized sooner I was temporary
We sit around I hear a sound it's a woman alone
I should've seen the reason why I felt like I died
a little soon(er) we're in you're room my body's shakin' cold
I had to leave to go retrieve the life that I once loathed
I tried to give you the words that I knew
would keep you here but you just ran
I'm not the guy who would deny you
what you say you want but it's not right
Alone @ night I can't sleep without you
Alone @ night I can't sleep without you next to me
"We moved too quick," but that's a fixable problem
Just cut the shit I wanna get to the bottom of it
I know you feel like I was still the reason why
Your passion's gone. It's been so long. Your plants are dry
You read us all wrong x 4
Your words, they cut through my bones that night
The wounds will heal
My drive isolates my life from standing still
The look in your eyes. A photo on Halloween
A part of YOU died that night. Just like me
Vanilla Scent
I worked 10-9
I wanna get high
but I won't now
that I met you
Don't move
your skin's so smooth
I don't mind
the light in my eye
I hope that you'll
give me a cause
It's our own pace we set
I love it when you get excited
The VCR's on
the previews are long
Could you read the subtitles?
My eyes are weak
Vanilla Scent
Do I need a mint?
It's the Beatles in the background
staring me down
I don't wanna leave
But it's 6:30 in the morn'
and my eyes feel heavy
I don't wanna work
or be a jerk but my arm's asleep
And we're not uttering any words
But that's okay
I'm content if you are
I don't wanna leave
but it's 7:16am and my bones are fatigued
I don't wanna leave
But I know you'll be the end of me
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
Count all the things you've lost
Stashed aside in all corners of the globe
Newspapers soaked in rain
There's letters dripping down your veins
The air is grey and I can't believe
you'd rather leave than stay for free
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
Amidst a stubborn fog
Resist the ticking clock in the background
of the left side of your brain
Now, don't complain today
Walk down an unknown street
Head hung low fixed on your feet
It's a dreaded tarot card w/ a blackened heart
You missed the headlights staring @ the stars
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
I found you
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
With your head held up high
Kick dirt, it hurts
But @ least you tried
You say you wanna rest
Is that all you've to do?
You're barely half-dressed
But sleep in shoes
You say you wanna rest x 4
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
Count all the things you've lost
Stashed aside in all corners of the globe
and now you're soaked in rain
There's letters dripping down your veins
The air is grey and I can't believe
you'd rather leave than stay for free
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
Between the Heat and bitter Frost
I found you
I found you cracked in too much to do
Surrounded
You're surrounded
We locked heads and that set you off
Another drink I had to think of how
I'm getting home again on the road
On that Highway 17
In the basement, we're having fun
We drank and sang and played the keys
as 1am rolled around again
You know what I mean?
You need to stop and think
of what you've done don't you
When'll you realize that you had
no dreams at all it's no surprise
Do you wanna slip away?
For just one moment's all I need
When I'm next to you
I just can't control myself
When I'm next to you tonight
It's Buried
It's buried in my soul
the fear of dying alone
How to not think about it
as you're growing old
But it's buried
You spin me around
It's the reason I sway
You bring me down
You pass me around
and it's the reason I stay
confused inside my hole
'Do what I'm told
But I'm squeezed and suffocated
You seem to have it all figured out
Our feelings aren't related
"It won't happen to me"
But it's buried in my
In my soul
In my soul
But I'm squeezed and suffocated
You seem to have it all figured out
Our feelings aren't related
"It won't happen to me"
But it's buried in my soul
It's not Feigned
It's not feigned
that I am drained
and having to explain
myself so much
I'm a bit strange
and carried away
Please carry me away
wherever you go
when no-one's looking
It's not fake gotta take a break
It's not fake gotta take a break
From this backwards stand-still
It's not feigned
that I am drained
and having to explain
myself so much
I'm a bit strange
and carried away
Please carry me away
wherever you go
when no-one's looking
It's not fake gotta take a break
From this backwards stand-still
You pick apart every little thing
like a machine. Reload. Implode
