it's the comfort level you love
it's above sea level and rising
i know now
how
to keep afloat
alone with these thoughts around me
keeping me lonely
keeping me alone
drifting into a sea of memories
how we held hands
for years
for days
for seconds
i never really understood until this moment
how it could have broken apart
so totally
for years
for days
for seconds
loving you
was mostly a mistake
mostly a dream
a delusion
for years
for days
for seconds

beaten down
03:01
|
|||
|
beaten down by the world
beaten down by the waves
beaten down by the games you always play
beaten down by the hurt
beaten down by the worst
beaten down by the love you never saved
oh i'm tired of loving
i'm tired of sinking deeper
oh i'm tired of running
i'm tired of being a sinner
oh i'm tired of loving
i'm tired of sinking deeper
oh i'm tired of running
i'm tired of being a sinner
beaten down by the loss
beaten down by the lake
beaten down by the promises you always make
beaten down by the blame
beaten down by your name
beaten down by the days being the same
oh i'm tired of loving
i'm tired of sinking deeper
oh i'm tired of running
i'm tired of being a sinner
oh i'm tired of loving
i'm tired of sinking deeper
oh i'm tired of running
i'm tired of being a sinner

depersonalization
04:35
|

|
when i bite through my skin
i try to find a way in
where, i really don't know
right between their world and mine
it's all over town
the people sleep and wake up with it
the secret and the story
of how the world gave them a reason
a reason and the excuse
i'm creeping in
gold dust rivets me down
and when i open my eyes
i see your toenails
i think you need something
i think i cannot give it
when i bite through your skin
i try to hide it under
where, i really don't know
maybe it's my heart screaming for truth
i'm creeping in

i shout
hold on, ray
you know it gets harder in time
you wanna think it's all fine
i scream
hold on, ray
once the water gets giant
you'd wish it twists inside out
fake it if it's easier for you
the sea is dangerous when it's blue
when your friends are drowned
you'd wish you didn't act like a clown
what's the use
what's the use
what's the use
what's the use
fly high
take me, ray
the fires in this place
kind of burns my face
let's go
take me away
and once you lose me there
you'd start imagining things
fake it if it's easier for you
the sea is dangerous when it's blue
when your friends are drowned
you'd wish you didn't act like a clown
what's the use
what's the use
what's the use
what's the use

like a china
02:03
|
|||
|
you come home late
with a stare of hate
you hate the world
i hate it too
it's easier to smile
but i see the difficulty
you carry a shame
and dream of fame
you must know
with the years in your palm
that it will never come
i'm being rude, i know
but a bunch of guys won't free you
it's easier to sleep
but i see what wakes you
were you born under the stars
your head is always above one
i want to shake you
but you will break
like a china
like a china

fish/hook
04:14
|

|
hook, hook, get me hooked
i wanna be hooked in to you
until my skin scrapes when i run away
look, look, everybody look
in a week, my eyes will drop
until these little balls are out of their sockets
i dance around the room to the beat
the drum crashes and i crash as well
into you, you, you, fish
well, when the towers fell over and crept up to dust
you saw eyes all awonder and smiles turned to rust
when the waves come knocking from behind a hundred thousand times
all you saw are frozen pictures of shaking heads and sunken hands
hook, hook, get me hooked
look, look, everybody look, look, everybody
hook, hook, get me hooked

moves
03:14

i wanna know you
more than you know yourself
so next time, you lie
i can easily accept
i wanna be more than
what i am to you now
don't worry, i'll never tell you how
baby, i'll watch your moves
i'll watch what you can prove
it's as if i'm your only friend
baby, i'll watch your moves
i'll watch what you can prove
i'll be your only friend
i can complete you, you know
because now, you're only half
and i can make you whole
i will sing to you at night
and i'll hold on to you so tight
baby, i'll watch your moves
i'll watch what you can prove
it's as if i'm your only friend
baby, i'll watch your moves
i'll watch what you can prove
i'll be your only friend

you know
03:50
|
|||
|
i can hear the words you say
i'm not feeling all that brave
so forgive me if i stay
in this room where i'm safe
leaving seems like a dream
cannot push it to extremes
i just curl up beside him
while outside i hear you scream
i long to be with you
you know
you know
i yearn to go with you
you know
you know
i need to be with you
you know
you know
i want to be with you
you know
you know
see, i have tried to confess
but he's been drinking less and less
for every reason i can run
is a bullet to his gun
i guess, i can always just make haste
but when he wakes, he'll set ablaze
to every corner of my mind
he'll just leave me deaf, dumb and blind
i long to be with you
you know
you know
i yearn to go with you
you know
you know
i yearn to go with you
you know
you know
i long to be with you
you know
you know
don't you worry, i understand
you have to go, you're just a man
you have to stick to your original plan
you can't just burn under the sun
so don't you think you've ruined me
i'm made of metal and debris
i will stand here for eternity
i will fade away into the sea
i long to be with you
just go
just go
i yearn to go with you
so long
so long
i need to be with you
you know
you know
i want to be with you
you know
you know

my luv 4 u
02:49

so collective
like a gathering crowd
or an abrasive storm
so collective
like a mistake
or a faulty wire
my love for you
stays a while
my love for you
is not ideal
my love for you
not just desire
my love for you
like a breathing fire dragon
like an animal loose in the wild
like a woman who has lost her mind
it will take some time to find
my love for you
stays a while
my love for you
is not ideal
my love for you
not just desire
my love for you

silver tongue
03:52
|
|||
|
he has got a silver tongue
pushes her all over around
she's buying an iron lung
he's wearing a golden crown
-
she's been talking for the longest time
brilliant skies to whitest house
she's a little worried
she's a little spent
he's holding her hostage
he's holding her hand
-
now he's asking for marriage
she's not ready yet
he's making a big fuss
about the glorious bent on the shape of her forehead
-
and the tape on the couch
it pricks her little mouth
and she's stopping now
frozen before a shout
-
her tongue is solid
her friends are wondering why
she used to be so torrid
now she's dull as white
-
and i tell them the truth
the truth about having you
the lies to simmer down
and the thing we really had
-
all the scars on my eyelids
the termites in my ear
it keeps to my places
and my head always in fear

your room
03:24
|
|||
|
you tell me to
turn it off
but i negotiate
and i turn it down
and that's okay
with you
it's monday and you always hate when
you can hear
what the hell i'm watching
maybe in friday or as soon as tuesday
we can find
a common ground
you know i love being with you
in this room you call home
when all places banish you
to this room you call home
maybe tomorrow, you will be in the mood to do something else, something better
maybe tomorrow, your arms won't be as weak as they are today, as they are always
you know i love being with you
in this room you call home
when all places banish you
to this room you call home

earphones
02:54
|
|||
|
i guess, deep down
i'm like everyone else
i wanna feel special
and i wanna know
when it stopped for you
me being
the only one you can tolerate
for a time
i thought i was
the only one who can penetrate
but now, you sleep
with those earphones on
you hate me now, don't you
you gotta tell me
because sometimes
i'm not so sure
if i was
i'd be gone as fast as lightning
i wanna be in your world
i just need to know
when it started
looking like
something you can't even look
in the eyes
