Trapdoor

I went walking and the Trapdoor opened up,
And it revealed to me, that the clearer the mirrors we see
Are never clear enough, because the soul will hide what you need
Until it's bubbling up and out of the moments you breed
I was thinking about the everything but only us
And that's the issue see? Because to me you were all the above
And then all of the time that we lost that we don't get back
All of the time that we lost that we don't get back, get back
That wasn't anything I ever heard you say
Don't wanna talk about it, you want to run away
That wasn't anything I ever heard you say
Don't wanna talk about it, you want to run away
I was thinking about the things we said when we were young
And how it used to be, we had promised to do this for fun
And then when that was done, we would pick up the pieces and run
To a place where we, could be, anything under the sun
The sun, the sun, the sun
That wasn't anything I ever heard you say
You wanna talk about it, you want to run away
That wasn't anything I ever heard you say
You wanna talk about it, you want to run away
Because there's a whole in my heart, I knew it from the start of something grand, but you were never there to hold me hand

Soul Fire
04:24

We lit the Soul Fire in the summer time
We liked the way that it made us feel so light, so bright
Yeah we were alright
We heard the siren's singing silent night
All through the winter but now that's gone bye-bye, bye-bye
Good riddance, goodnight
Where you going to, I miss you
Now that you've been stolen, stolen all away
I thought that, I thought that I had told you
Told you that I loved you, I guess I'm just too late
A little too late
We liked to be free and we'd run with the wind
With the mentality of believing that there was no way,
We couldn't win, I wanna go there again.
And again, and again
Where you running to, I miss you
miss the lips I used to, kiss all day and night in the summer
I thought that, I thought that you had told me
We would spend eternity, searching for that soul fire forever
But you left me at the gate, you left me at the gate
and I gave you all I had
You left it a little too late, you left me a little too late
and I'm still waiting, still
These are the words that I would say if I saw you,
I'd ask you if you've ever seen somebody so true,
But I already know, where that conversation would go
It would lead me right back home
Right back home

All of This Time
05:16
|
|||
|
Took a lot of emotion to get the ball rolling
Took a lot of devotion to get your mind going on
One step at a time and catch your breath
Two steps at a time is all I get
What surprise, you had someone else on your mind
And all of this time I stood here on my own
And what a surprise you had someone, else in your life
And all of this time I could have found someone, new
I rolled the dice when I didn't find someone new
I paid the price when I decided to stay with you
Don't try to leave the past behind you
Keep moving forward it'll stay there on it's own
When you're going somewhere, well you better just get there
What's the point of thinking at all
What surprise, you had someone else on your mind
And all of this time I stood here on my own
And what a surprise you had someone, else in your life
And all of this time I should have found someone, new
I thought that you meant it when you said that our love was true
But I'm not yet mended, my heart was intended for you
I wanna tell ya
How can we be, so fucking miserable, invisible to reason
I should've ran when I had the chance
And now that we've seen the situations unwinnable
It's a sin that I took this stance, and there's no time to dwell on the past
And how could I be, so predictable
but I can see myself moving on, I'm gonna find
My way home

Where Does It Get You
03:17
|

|
You sleep in a field You make some friends,
but you don't know if they are real
And you hope it lasts, but you know it ends
At least thats the way you feel
And did it all go south, I think you got too proud
Of the world you were living in
Yeah you got so sour, minute after hour - you felt like giving
Man we just lost power, in the minute after hours
Man we just lost power, in the minute after hours
and I made a new friend, but it's not what I asked for
Living the beginning, just awaiting the end
You sleep in a field You make some friends,
but you don't know if they are real
And you hope it lasts, but you know it ends
At least that's the way you feel
Did it all go south? I think you spoke too loud
Now you don't know how you'll deal
The chance we take, or the guess we make
It's just the way I feel
Well it happened again, my senses test me
And I made a new friend, where does that lead?

Pay The Cost
06:18

|
Fool me once, shame on you
Fool me twice, shame on you
What's the harm, in the choice that forgiveness can't be true
and it's my own, my own damn fault, bundled up, in the calls
We never made, I just let fall, locked them up deep down inside of a vault
now here is the thing that you might all have missed
are the dreams in your heart the ones on your list
if its off would you turn it on
if its off would you turn it on
could you tell me the cost
or the price i paid for letting my mind get lost
building it up like it was your first house
nothing can stop you now
we're breaking the walls that we built so proud
now we're ready to fly
now here is the thing that you might all have missed
are the dreams in your heart still the ones on your list
and if it is off, would you turn it on?
if its off, would you turn it on?
could you tell me the cost
or the price i paid for letting my mind get lost
building it up like it was your first house
nothing can stop you now
we're breaking the walls that we built so proud
now we're ready to fly

Burns High
05:17

(ooh)
I sit alone on my bed, i'm thinking now, hello wow what do i need
and i pulled an old notebook out from underneath and it hurt me to read
where is that love i used to know, where did it go
where is that love i used to know, where did you go
we watched the fires burn high and in it lied the truth we had sewn
and after that our luck had soon run dry, it died when the rivers of hope had run low
but we couldn't careless, we were careless and blind and in love
no longer in distress, yeah we were all that we thought the world of
there's not much worth saying, you don't already know
there's not much worth doing, that i didn't already show
and it's not much worth living for, if you're not around
Oh!
So I get the paper and pen, my pain erasing as I reach in the dark
For something to defend, the light of my life yeah I just lost the spark
But that wasn't enough, to give it up stop the show and go home
There must be still some love left in the core of my soul
There's not much worth saying, you don't already know
there's not much worth doing, that i didn't already show
and it's not much worth living for, if you're not around
Oh!
Oh!

Sweet Stuff
03:22

There's a road we travel on, that rarely shows it's face
But time don't take no prisoners, and that thought puts me back into my place
So we sneak away, in the dead of night
We're gonna work till dawn, hope we beat the sunlight
The furnace is on, and the moment feels right
We're gonna strike while the iron is hot, despite- the feeling
Everybody wants, a shoulder they can lean on
Everybody needs, someone they can love
yea
Yea I know that's what I need
No, no, you'll never run away, you gotta get back on the track to your new days
Yea, Yea, you'll never wisen' up on the smart stuff they've been selling us these days
and you don't feel, you don't feel, so great
Yeea
Everybody wants, a shoulder they can lean on
and Everybody needs, someone they can love -
oh Yea
yea
Everybody wants, a shoulder they can lean on
and Everybody needs, someone they can love -

Minimalism

I played Martyr for so long I'd forgotten who I was
Now when I see you I shake and quiver at sight of the one I love
and I didn't listen baby, I misunderstood, now you're screaming exactly like we knew we would
Burning to the heavens, and it's headfirst into the pool
and it's shallow, shallow
No I didn't understand you, I misunderstood
Now you've dried up all of my fears
Oh
Shining Sea, bring me peacefully
Oh it's honesty, is our love complete, complete
I've counted here for hours, and the second you go away my body gets ice cold, you know I get Ice cold
Your torso is my citadel, a safe and silent womb
Now I know what it meant to me, when you let my heart inside of you
and then I see you again and the shaking still don't quit
Waiting around waiting around for something perfect
Oh
Shining Sea, bring me peacefully
Oh it's honesty, is our love complete, complete
I've counted here for hours, and the second you go away my body gets ice cold, you know I get Ice cold
Because it's you, you are the one I found

Security Threat

What is on your mind, tell it to all mankind
Detail takes the stage, logged away and saved for ages
Another day in the sun is used inside
where the people all go so they can hide
But it's safer outside with the prying eyes
At least them watching you ain't a surprise
So with a click-click boom they'll take you out
Before you can even know what they were talking about
And when everyone else forgets that you had been
They put you right back to start all over again
There's nothing to say
There's no one that's safe

Day By Day
05:56

You tried to beat me, but you couldn't defeat me
Even though you complete me, that's wrong
So much for the freedom, of knowing I was the only one
Seeing when I get home, that's gone, that's gone
And I don't want a thing, I'm giving it all to you
I can see it in your eyes
just waiting on your love
I wanted, to tell you something new
It never mattered what I say
Day by Day
and Now it matters what I say
Day by Day
by day
You tried to beat U.S. but you couldn't defeat us
Even though you complete US, it's wrong
So much for the Freedom, of knowing I was the only one
Hearing you on the telephone, you went home
but you're still not alone
And I don't want a thing, I'm giving it all to you
I can see it in your eyes
just waiting on your love
I wanted, to tell you something new
That
Girl, i loved you, girl, I needed you
We shared good times
We shared our love
Girl, i loved you, girl, I needed you
We shared good times
We shared our love
cause Girl, I loved you, yes I do
We shared good times

Never Come Back
04:37
|

|
Do you remember where you came from?
Initial factor leading to the sum
It's seems to you no more than just a crumb
I wish you well with your heart attack
so turn around and never come back
I hear you talk about your latest loan
the claim to fame which you wish unknown
it just shows how much you've grown
it looks to me that you don't give a shit
it's just a tool in your survival kit
I tried so hard to help you, what did you do, turn your back on me
when you fled, you created, a favor wasted, the last one from me
why run away from here, why not just stay right here
why run away from here, why not just stay right here
well
they say some things are better left unsaid
just wither up and keep it in your head
It's getting harder every time I've read
The accolades the praise the glowing press
my mental state is just a fucked up mess
my time is wasted had too much to say
truth is I don't wanna feel this way
but it's that time of year, I have to pay
The false reflection and the fractured past
Go find some shade in the shadow I cast
How could you forget everything that we have done for you
to get you where you are right now, you ungrateful hack
why run away from here, why not just stay right here
why run away from here, why not just stay right here

Hell and Ice
05:39

Down below
A million miles
Through hell and ice
I saw it then.
Towns afar
Can see the fire
From way down south
Send in the men.
Won't you go on and let the dogs out.
Face ablaze
Pores bleeding out
You didn't care
About your friends.
You didn't help them.
These men will fall
Their town collapse
Through hell and ice
I tried my best.
