I see your eyes have rolled back you feel closer, you’ve been so good i see an awful scene unfold you’ve been hoping this will end soon does it make your hands curl when you’re floating there and not talking on your own? and i won’t come back, I’ll make sure this won’t hurt don’t go, is this everything you ever wanted? my love, just tell me you miss me tell me cus i can’t wait anymore don’t go, is this everything you ever wanted? my love, just tell me you need me tell me just how I’m feeling and you feel the shape of someone lying next to you and your house will fall apart until it takes you too i see it all, but i can not dwell and i won’t come back, I’ll make sure this won’t hurt don’t go, is this everything you ever wanted? my love, just tell me you miss me tell me cus i can’t wait anymore don’t go, is this everything you ever wanted? my love, just tell me you need me tell me you miss me tell me you love me tell me I’m overthinking it don’t cry, this place won’t before they tear it from you don’t go, is this everything you ever wanted? my love, just tell me you miss me tell me cus i can’t wait anymore don’t go, is this everything you ever wanted? my love, just tell me you need me tell me you miss me tell me you love me tell me I’m overthinking

Come Undone 04:04
sink past the skin and seep into your soul i know just what you’ve done you’re just a child motherless, unloved that no one seems to want “who am i?” you’re gonna say for the rest of your life “who am i?” lost in between remember every word that turned into a lie left in the cold scratching at your door will you let it back inside? “who am i?” you’re gonna say for the rest of your life “who am i?” “who am i?” you’re gonna say for the rest of your life. “who am i?” “who am i?” “who am i?”

no, i can not believe what you’ve been thinking though i guess that you’ll get what you deserve best keep your conscience clear, god only knows now run away from the world, you’re always missing out on who you wanted to be it’s all you know this time nothing hurts me anymore i think the lord has left and gone away besides none of this is happening no, this can not be happening to me it took so long to see that you’ve been changing could feel it everywhere, it’s in the walls (haunting all along) been trying to explain that it won’t hurt, my dear but its here in the room and it looks a lot like you and you a lot like me so here’s your escape this time nothing hurts me anymore i think the lord has left and gone away besides none of this is happening no, this can not be happening, i swear this isn’t happening to me i can hear you whispering nothings getting through to me

tell me the last time you felt blessed and how it took everything away forever show me the wounds you left unwrapped and how they still ache and bleed and open slowly I’ll be right beside you until i’m gone tell me your secrets, ill pretend to feign all my interest and act the way you’d want me well i was a liar when i said that “this won’t last, you’ll be ok someday” throw me in fire, tied you’re falling further away i’ll be right beside you until i’m gone

turn the love out you’ll never see this coming how could this last so long? keep your voice down before you spoil the ending you’ll never make it through the night i always wanted to get under your skin wear it around until i find what makes you tick I’m trying so hard to see through every face that’s been looking back at me I’m getting closer to finding what it means stop and listen heard something like a whisper how could this last so long? lost and broken been searching for a purpose you’ll never make it out alive i always wanted to get under your skin wear it around till i find what makes you tick I’m trying so hard to see through every face that’s been looking back at me I’m getting closer to finding what it means if you only could taste how i feel

Waste 03:04
it’s wasted on me I’m starting to notice all the flashing lights it’s wasted on me scared it won’t last, always felt a step behind i know that if i stop and think about this it would mean the end you said you think you’ve had enough well i don’t think that you’ve had enough yet you’re a satellite come on, don’t be shy while you’re waiting up for me hope you’re waiting up for me it’s wasted on me the air is clear, whispering we’re all alone it’s wasted on me get settled in, accept all that you’ve become i held an image, always missing pieces couldn’t understand but i think that i just figured out that there’s nothings left to figure out you’re a false idea never seen so clear and i miss the way it feels yeah i miss the way it feels losing the time it never takes you back to when you lost your place

Bulrushes 03:22
left it all behind i must be dreaming blocking out the light washed from the scene reeds so tall you’ll never see me hiding underneath the salt there’s only sin I’ll be sinking like a stone before you figure out never left a mark though something lingers slowly moving in and out of frame leave me here to lie without a meaning and tell me when you decide who gets swept away to parts unknown and who gets left behind I’ll be sinking like a stone before you figure out (I’ll be stitching every piece together, that i let fall apart) I’ll be sinking like the boys were drawn and laid down in the nile so pray to god you won’t start slipping when the lights go down no one will hear what I’ve been thinking when i start to drown so pray to god you won’t start slipping when the lights go down just tell me you love me when i start to drown scared i might be breaking at the seems don’t think about helping, save me from myself

lay me down, I’m so tired i can’t wash this off my skin but if i wake ill still try for you for you hey you, love been keeping some secrets plaguing me tonight the sky hasn’t moved, been staring for ages, and now i realize that I’ll never find you on my own our time is coming to a close i don’t know what’s gotten into me are you still listening? have you heard I’ve lost all my patience trying to stay calm? i’m losing my faith, im losing my focus, god it’s so hard well i am a liar born and bred best cut me out, it’s not too late been dying to get this off my chest: i will never die i guess i’ll start a fire you’ll never hear a thing I’ve got a funny feeling that just won’t go away

Apparitions 02:02
this is where you disconnect this is when your body fails you this is how the world will end and finally become one this is where you tell a lie this is where you left a scar this is when you stopped pretending this is when you lost control this is how you start again this is how you die alone this is why you want to know where have you gone? where have you gone to?
