Mouthed a promise and watched it's demise A lie A misleading conversation Your fucked banter A Social disorder Handicapped reasons Gratification from your treason Put this to bed Let it rest it’s weary head Let it fall asleep for the last time She won’t wake up again She won’t wake up again Her world’s Her stage Can the waves crash in? Will they drag you under and out? An abandoned shipwreck Mayday; we are over and out Over and out Just a bystander Caught in the crossfire Breathe deeper now While Your brow starts to perspire Watch her heart sink I watched her heart sink Put Sunday on repeat Peaceful as the tap of my feet Push play with her voice in mind Half lit fires and Silhouette skies Mouthed a promise and watch it’s demise A lie. A misleading conversation

Centrefolds 03:54
Centrefolds with all the reactions Certain pose and dull satisfaction Greener pastures and a hidden connection And we, we already knew them Saturdays and all that they bring us Seventh day and no sign of a lifeline Drag me out, of here and pull me into the limelight Dear God, give me your hand, give me lifeline Show me the lights Show me city lights It is where I need to be To forget all I’ve remembered Take care, that’s was she told me That’s what she told me when I left her this morning I’m analytical - pencil to paper Take care, take care Sit down and pick up the telephone Or Smile and listen to the dial tone Oh it’s always been something better I’ve always been better on my own Well I’m not coming home, tonight I’m not coming home

Angry Birds 02:49
Thieves, all of your are thieves All of this means nothing to no one Nothing to no one For the last time, for the last time, for Thieves, all of your are thieves All of this means nothing to no one Nothing to no one For the last time, for the last time, for I will take aim For the last time I will take aim For the last time I will take aim Bring the king to his knees For he abandoned us all Make him beg make him plead Consequences for all he's done They want nothing more They want nothing more but this I've seen nothing like it before I've seen nothing like it before

Take these words Break them into consumable grief Think through your actions With your heart on your sleeve Slow down and breathe We all have our demons And they have their limits Peace is not Something that comes to us easily It's hard work and something you'll die trying hard to achieve But we all need to dream We all need some wisedom I cannot I cannot go back to what we were Once we were lovers But not we are strangers Am I holding my tongue? Are we too far gone? Are we too far gone?

You say this curtain will fall You say this curtain will fall Well I beg to differ Acting upon all insecurities You think this love will be torn You think this love will be torn Well I beg to differ Underestimate the strength of the foundation Thought that this right would be wronged Thought this right would be wronged Well I beg to differ Little faith have heart Treading a thin black line Treading water Sink or swim Little faith have heart

Panorama 03:37
Another silent movie Another sleepless night Continuation of my dreaming Bleeding knuckles from the fight I’m still seeing The faces of these killers The ones that boast control Who is driving this? Who’s the one responsible? Am I driving this? Am I the one responsible I’m falling asleep at the wheel Sleep at wheel Falling asleep Days are only days But wasted are none I’m drunk and I tired It’s a sorry tale that’s sung Do I take this pill and swallow? Do I take the fruit and eat? Can I take one more step forward? Can I trust what’s on the street? Have I the will to continue? Can I still pick up my feet? Is there still hope for the fallen? Is there faith for the weak? Can you come guide us onwards? My future so bleak Calm the waters of the ocean Or watch this panorama bleed

Departure 04:19
Departure Never a simple process Observing through a window Of this city As it decays As it wastes away Cold memories Keep them close to your heart Cold memories Keep them close to your heart I am burdened with a heavy heart Love lost and lounge departure I feel sick Sicker than I’ve felt before Not once I believed That anything could part this Hope Faith and Love Hope Faith and Love Stuck in the cycle Run the Race of the Rodents Freedom fell from this moment Do I fall to my knees? Fall to my knees? Do I fall?

I gave you away A gift given to the oceans She promised me your return Just another lesson I forgot to learn With hands held over our hearts With words that we had spoken From the start We knew this day would come Life was broken Surrounded by this wasteland I would part the seas For you Clear the skies from winter Set my spirit free Set my spirit free With hands held over our hearts With words that we had spoken From the start We knew this day would come Life was broken Surrounded by this wasteland I would part the seas For you...
