Balance And Composure

Everyone was right left it at the afterparty I didn't say goodbye and I didn't say goodnight I wonder if you may, I wonder if I like But I didn't say goodbye, I didn't say goodnight And then you slip into me Penetrate so suddenly And then you slip into...

Is it this air that turns me cold? This time of year I feel alone. The wind blows and dries my skin. These people keep to themselves, all living in their own hell. I need to get out of the place I'm in. Take me to a place where I don't know anybody. Le...

Hey, is it you that makes me hollow? Don't act the same. Cleaning out a conscience. Scream at the moon. I hear it as it echoes. I'll find out soon. I never want to let you go. Hey, am I picking at your head dear? Don't you feel shame? Is it weighing...

Don't you ever leave me out Are these pieces of you? You never show Now I'll never know You needed to Get high just to prove You've got control No one believes The faces we put on our scars And then they let me down I’m famous for my flaws and scars...

Don't let, don't let it go to your head For now you are victorious but soon to dread The thought of your actions with such great passion She's basically dead on the cold cement. And you should of seen the way my eyes burned in disbelief And I let them he...

Try to take it from me, this is my throne, is it fleeting? Cast your one and only heavy stone try defeating the only one you know with the gift that I bestow. on and on it goes, the kingdom never folds They can't call it amazing always, my reign is here...

My day is coming My day is coming up soon And I've been waiting And I've been waiting in my room And I've been thinking And I've been thinking about my life And no, I'm not scared But hell, I'm horrified And if I just stay here I can avoid all the ca...

I could've sworn that you knew my conscience was not clean, You fade in and fade out. Crawling up into nothing at your feet. You're going to leave me all alone again, Don't say you never did. And by the time I get to know you in this shell of emptiness,...

Breathe me in I am the ghost of better past lingering deep down South of here Where we know his face But not the name of a brother drowned in his last years Have you been skipping stones across the lake ablaze For your own damn sake Open wide It's this...

It's time to show you where I stand I am but a sorry man. Let's see how far we can go You knew I had to let you know. Puffing on your cigarette, Letting all the anger set. Let me get another drag, Never meant to hurt you bad. Oh oh oh oh Lost you i...

Rain came down since the day we got home For days and days it poured into the streams Kill the beast of all our lost hope Breaking down my walls and shaking all my dreams Hear it echo real slow Bouncing off of me to a land that I know Waited some time f...

Heat on your face, The comforting sun. I need it to warm me, Taste it on my tongue. There's a color or a shade, revealing Lighting up your face, shine on me, shine on me. Heat on your face, You know they're calling it off again. And I thought I heard...

Leaning on the edge this time Pacing back and forth I find that I can't get it right Steady on my troubled mind Bitter tasting words like Why did I never write home You think I am so worried and careful I know you're right, it's true I'm a weeping willo...

I never came here for your heart, I only cave in to the bottle. You never showed me who you are, you never took me to the bottom Sell it away from every angle We're killing ourselves from all directions Fade into the glow Fame is all we need Say it i...

I dropped you off and I headed home, I drove fast but I was all alone. My eyes bled as I travelled down the road. Then my thoughts left my tongue in speeches I had never planned. My brain wanders into a happier place after wishing that I was dead. Afte...

Take me for a walk, point me where you want to steer me Take me for a walk. I'll go where you are Take me for a walk. Kiss me in that alley baby Take me for a walk. Touch me anywhere I don't want to stop One hit and its got us floating, tiny speckle...

Ready now I had to clean myself off Settle down Make it out of this rut safely I'll flee and think it's time to let go Think I felt the safety in the heat There's a calmness in the way I speak out To just say, drop it When all I think is, stop it It'...

I gave up long ago, thought you'd never show. I saw your face shine like the sun, it glows, thought I'd let this go. Your depression shows when you talk about home. You said: "I can't wait to leave this town and go away on my own". And the thought of i...

I was there for you I was there for you 

I tore you apart in my head Locked up in my room again Left you for broken and there you were choking You got on with all your friends And that's when I knew you were dead A haunting reminder of when I swallowed my own eyes to see what was inside You br...

Honeyglow, You tear me up Leaving it all exposed, Just so you know. And all these chemicals Become the only thing I really know And I keep them close. Ocean blue, I'm swimming in the very midst of you. You should try it too. Come on and feel it ou...

I flow through your veins and I drain you I am your dream surrendering Came into my world, in my wake, in my shadow Saw all of me, saw everything that I'm made of Turn it off, counting lines where do we meet? Inside a moment, inside it's over elevated, s...

This is the first time that I've seen Exactly where I want to be and how the fuck I'll make it there And I'm sick of looking back at all the chances I once had To see for the first time They're all crawling away from it slowly, all afraid of the light...

Don't fall. And I'll catch you on the outside But you called. And don't tell me that you want back in. Keeping it a secret And my shame could never come out of the hell I left it in. Keep it for keepsake now. Even if you knew my face, (Come see my u...

In the garden where the seed was planted deep inside the soil. Nothing growing for my eyes to see yet it'll bloom when I'm old All of them are everblooming, they took the time to grow Maybe if you took the blame, I'd have something to show And I feel like...

I need a place Need a taste Need someone so whole and clean. I need a spark I need your spark To light this house so dark and deep. So call my name. Call my name. I lost my head Lost my heart Cast in iron it will heat. I lost your name Lost the...

The love we made drifts away The love we made drifts away I am born, you are too We are one, thought you knew Girl make it stop Can you feel my beating heart? Can you feel my bleeding heart? Underneath your linen fabric, lay yourself to rest Time bend...

In the ocean we can barely float In the ocean further down we go I don't want to know your motive Come and stay another moment Stay another moment Drifting down and we don't wash ashore Come and stay another moment Stay another moment Pull me down Do...

I'm a wounded man on top of trees Gazing at the world below my feet Fickle feelings find a way to me Like hard winds blowing when we're lost at sea Defeated pride Finally got the chance to let go Keeping it quiet Not a worry in the world that we know...

This old game of who used who, Disgraceful that you know my room. And I can see the evil games you love to play, Don't give a shit take all of me. Left me in the open, Cut me deep, cut me right. Seeking out a confidence in me, Can't see it, notice me....

I try to find my plight, but it wouldn't show itself to me. So I got lost along the way, it seems that everything is grey, but that's ok. I know it's out there waiting for me, but I can't see it from where I stand. And all this going but not knowing if...

My vacant heart, How is it that you split in two parts? I'm checking in to reminisce. A roller coaster ride in the dark To places I don't want to go. Parachutes to break my fall, Tangled up in deeper thought, Makes falling faster. I'm falling faster....

I feel no pain from your salt-mixed rain If I grew a tree up to the sky Feed it the words that would make it cry A sad, sad song You got me humming right along To the words that the sun burned out Shout them loud to make you proud Soon I'll find my nerv...

Five lines written on a postcard Five lines I'm a little closer Five lines written on a postcard for you Either way you go [x5] Ink so permanent Yeah it's so permanent Any way I mark it down Either way you go [x10] Faint and numb You keep my head...

Let's jump out a window Maybe we could fly Yeah, we talked a lot about it But never tried Cause I'll jump if you jump Running out of time If we don't go now we'll never really find faith I used to keep it so close to me Yeah, but now I'll try to hide o...

Sixteenth day into the year, the drive was quiet. I had thoughts in my head. It was all bad news. We sat parked, and I opened up, you shut down. This night will only get worse. It was all bad news. Get off the ground, you're making things worse. Wo...

Can’t complain about everything, This one leaves me with a permanent stain all over me. I can’t take the way you look at me. Those eyes could never lie. The truth will find its way out. In time I’ll pour it out, Until then I’ll keep you inside my head....

A weak hold, Some call it pitiful. Their reasons. Say what you really mean. I cave in, ran out of miracles. Reflection, who do I really see? Oh I'll come down and take it in, I'm close. You said to come when you're ready And I've been taking my tim...

There is a flame When we let it show I hope you see it Don't let it go We are the same That dark is all we know Taking our picture Our faces glow How could I leave your side I just had a revelation I'll come by, let the flame burn through And if it...

Picture in my head stretches miles wide Picture in my head is burning me inside tonight I’d like to know the facts before they deceive me Why the mountains touch the sky, no ground beneath me, Why the trees in the forest stand so tall, God, I want t...

Never wanted to go But it's the road that's calling All the seasons Never meant to hurt your feelings That's the way that it goes And I'll be seeing All the changes Coming to congratulate them Then you say that you're just so happy for me Though it's...

Why do you say, the things that you say? Does it make you feel stronger, taller than me? Cause I'm under the dirt, it's under your feet With some awfully thoughtful wishes I've dreamed The cold turned to water, drink it all down Cold in your throat, speak...

Come ready, don't be afraid. All I ask is for your cooperation. I'm not ready to be a slave. All my life these mindless questions. There's a hole in my head. I keep it quiet, but I have no will to go. Can't we all just forget? I'm getting tired and giving...

Separation The result of your coming touch What's motivation if my feelings can't turn into love I spend my spare time Frustrated and painting a mask Fits right to your face Recovers the thoughts of my past It pains me to know that all I see Is a visi...

Well I've been running away from you for the past couple years, spent my days down by the river, and hoped to see your face. And it's been hard to speak up when no one is listening to me, compared to you I am so small, so small. Your words cannot tell me...

Levitating round you go. where you stop? i don’t know. floating away. bending and breaking you're floating away. the left one wants what the right one’s got and all my shit is piling up. floating away. bending and breaking you’re so far away and.. i’m alright....

Don't say goodbye to me too fast Even though I'm fast asleep Try your best to hold onto the past Wasted it on all me They chase us around all the hallways Sometimes I swear that I see Know that I’m here for you always Ghosts of you and me Wasted it a...

I’ll take you on a drive, Like gardens filled with mirrors, Lay back eyes open wide, Through alleys we’re disappearing, Come close, stay far, I’ll be your tiny raindrop I fall down now You left me feeling shameful. Even if I could I would never let y...

I was watching October sky in mid July when I lost my self control It's kind of funny how time goes by and we wonder why and where the fuck did it go? I'm sick of having my friends die Been thinking of old times They play like a movie in my brain Why can'...

Found out everyone is shallow No depth The ugly seem to follow Blinded void, gaping hole Weed out, weed out the visions you saw Speak out, speak out, you talk for us all Shut out the weakness you brought All said and all done All said and all done I...

Let me in I'm outside Of your house I've got some things to say I once knew I once knew Where you hid the key to your house It's not there, and now I'm waiting outside. Guess I'll just look at the clouds They look so much bigger today I've been thi...

Bow your head close your eyes, pray that you'll see your son again. He's been there your whole life, watching the door for you to come in. He's not like other boys, he's got good ideas, his thoughts are real. But now he's lost his head, his heart and so...

Keep your head up boy he said to me. Can't you let this go? I'll never have my turn again, but I never really know. You call yourself a cowboy, but you just can't let things go. You sold your soul to a woman who left you for her heavenly home. Give u...

Screaming your lungs out, They put on a great show. Peel out in your car, Drive anywhere with me, Don't drop me off. Can't you see me crumbling? Aren't you feeling on my heartbeat? I want to hear you say, "When I call, pick me up when I come undone."...

Don't waste a breath on me, or even call. How have you been sleeping? Cause it's been calm, Keep it off from me I can't keep still in the deep end Don't carry me to leave me to die Selfish heart and it's me on the outside In a cold, dark, and bitter wa...
