[Verse 1]
You found me out
Turned me away
Cause I’m damaged goods
These chemicals are in my blood to stay
Drag it out
Prolong the pain
Cause all the things you're saying now
You told me yesterday
[Chorus]
Fading, wasting,
A shadow's negative is everything you're not
Until you're fading, wasting,
A tapestry of crossing lines is everything you're not
Until you're fading, wasting,
A shadow's negative is everything you're not
Until you're fading, wasting,
A tapestry of crossing lines is everything you're not
Until you're
Not
[Verse 2]
Please don’t leave
Don’t fade away
I’m asking of you please do not
Forget your daughter’s face
Stories I never got to hear
I need them now
I have to know
Before they disappear
[Chorus]
Fading, wasting,
A shadow's negative is everything you're not
Until you're fading, wasting,
A tapestry of crossing lines is everything you're not
Until you're fading, wasting,
A shadow's negative is everything you're not
Until you're fading, wasting,
A tapestry of crossing lines is everything you're not
Until you're
Not

[Intro]
Don't their words feel thin?
All your new friends are dancing
[Verse]
Grab a drink, sit down
Through the haze of the evening
Everyone you know deserves the things you know you don't
They’re laughing without you, no loss of value
[Pre Chorus]
You breathe in
The dirty thoughts inside you trapped by your skin, they burn
[Chorus]
And I feel nothing, it’s like I’m skin and bone
Can't shake the feeling, I'll never find a home
I'm not a fan of all the things I've said and done
But now who's counting, another horse has won
[Verse]
Then the band goes home
All the waiters start smoking
Head still spinning round, you think your parents would be proud?
You're filled with intention, self-flagellation
[Pre Chorus]
You breathe out
A sickly kind of optimism slides around your skull
[Chorus]
And I feel nothing, it’s like I’m skin and bone
Can't shake the feeling, I'll never find a home
I'm not a fan of all the things I've said and done
But now who's counting, another horse has won

Eyes Closed

[Verse 1]
There's something wrong with my left hand
I’m asking it to pry the door open again
It disobeys, like it’s not my own
Time for me to drive home
[Chorus]
Four seasons, four more days
Dogmatic, disengaged
Keep driving faster now
Eyes closed, I'm freaking out
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
Four seasons, four more days
Dogmatic, disengaged
Keep driving faster now
Eyes closed, I'm freaking out
[Verse 2]
Here comes the rain, it stops and goes
The pressures changed and switching lanes won’t help now, I know
A truck span out, oh that poor soul
Shrapnel on the fresh snow
[Chorus]
Four seasons, four more days
Dogmatic, disengaged
Keep driving faster now
Eyes closed, I'm freaking out

[Verse 1]
Please stop saying
You're out of time
It drives me crazy
You're doing fine
You're like a child, understanding takes a while
And you keep moving, the finish line
[Instrumental Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Tous m'es amis
Sont loins de moi
Il's me dit
Je te comprends pas
Je sens chez moi, je me demande si j'ai le droit
Il faut que je fasse
Ce qui me fait du bien
[Instrumental Chorus]
[Breakdown]
[Verse 3]
Please stop saying
You're out of time
It drives me crazy
You're doing fine

Tired Movements
04:12
|

|
[Verse 1]
Off the bus and on the train
Keeping track of things mundane
Watch the water slipping by
Slowly dying, killing time
[Verse 2]
List five things that I can see
Lock the door, that's fine by me
It might be time to sell the farm
Tired movements, smoke alarms
