Over It
03:06

I wouldn’t want to be here when the temperature drops
The climactic ending with the signature last minute telephone call
Informing you of the sudden change in plans
It is never ending, on many occasions I have told you that I
Tell you too much as it is
In truth I see myself someplace other than this
Beginning to think that my timing was off
Would prefer an ending without doubt about who, why, when, and what’s wrong
Far from innocent, it weighs on our hands
You’re so damn pretty but with a history, a victim of circumstance
I tell you too much as it is
The days are running together and never seem to end
Open your eyes wide (do not look down)
Act surprised when evidence is found
You’re not alone now but so far away
You’ll be over it by then
You will be over it by then
You will be over it and I’ll be on my way
Couldn’t tell you where I’m going to
Far, far away from her from here, I swear this time for real
My best intentions turned upside down
Standing inches away, putting off what I should just do right now
I tell you too much as it is
The days are running together and never seem to end
Open your eyes wide (do not look down)
Act surprised when evidence is found
You’re not alone now but so far away
You’ll be over it by then
You will be over it by then
You will be over it and I’ll be on my way

Never Again
02:36
|

|
One must not get carried away
Gravity’s difference makes matters weigh
More on this Earth than they really seem
If only to be pulled from the fray (and)
Put behind the glass
Like some precious artifact
Concealing the flaws, the flaws that I have
Say what you will but leave out the names
I’ve been here before but I’m unafraid
To tell you of me both sad and plain
Lock down your world in a single phrase (and)
Press against the glass
Admiring an artifact
That you once had (but)
Never again will this begin or end with you
Try as I may I can’t get through
How can I get through?
Now a low lit closing sign
Exceedingly clean nothing left behind
Only aware of what is inside
Likes of which never caught my eye
Up against the glass
In awe of an artifact
That you once had
Never again will this begin or end with you
Try as I may I can’t get through
How can I get through?
This will take me a long time
Never again will this begin or end with you
Try as I may I can’t get through
How can I get through?
No matter how long it takes
Sit forever I can wait (x2)

Red Walls

The red walls in this house don’t cover the blue that surrounds you
Place all these things up on a shelf
And sometime they will find you again
Does anybody know where she’s been?
I’m still trying to save me, baby
I tell you I just don’t have time for this
Staying up real late, most days
It’s not easy to live around your head
I am overcome with this condition
Calling my whole life into question
And why what you think is so damn important
The frequency of these calls, drown out the silence in the evening
Me and all these thoughts get crossed
Traveling along telephone wires
I call out your name, nobody answers
I’m still trying to save me, baby
I tell you I just don’t have time for this
Staying up real late, most days
It’s not easy to live around your head
I am overcome with this condition
Calling my whole life into question
And why what you think is so damn important
It’s just not that easy (to reach inside and turn it off)
It’s not easy (to find my way when I am lost)
It’s not easy (to run before I learn to walk)
It’s just not that easy
I’m still trying to save me, baby
I tell you I just don’t have time for this
Staying up real late, most days
It’s not easy to live around your head
I am overcome with this condition
Calling my whole life into question
And why what you think is so damn important

In Plain View

OK enough you’ve won the war
Our delicate situation’s flawed
I can’t hear you for all the noise
On my knees pulling nails from the floor
You talk a lot about yourself
But it’s not me you’re trying to impress
And who are you to decide my worth?
I swear I loved you but I come first
Now I sit around
Trying to figure out
Why things end up this way
It’s not like you know you
Or the things you do
And this life is just not pre-ordained
Trying to put you in your place
If only there was something I could say
You were a lot of things to me
A quiet room, a place to bleed
…the keeper of all the good
And the ground on which I stood

Collateral
02:16

I went far away (far away), you know (you know)
Didn’t think hurt could follow me 6000 miles from my home
But it finds me here, within these walls in this building
And nothings changed (nothings changed) except time of day
I just can’t seem to sleep when you’re away
Confined to this room with a TV screen and nothing to do
Hurt is here to stay, I’ll grow
Keep me in the dark not knowing if everything is ok
You should fill me in or fill me up
I wish I could stay, but now I’m stuck inside a dream
She’s like a ghost ~ my heart says maybe and my mind says let it go
I’ve only washed one hand well, afraid to jump but might as well
Moving on isn’t making sense
There’s no way to explain no self defense
I’m backed up against the wall, something’s gotta give
Why do I always have to play this part?
You say you need your space, I’ll wait
If I could just let it go I swear everything would be ok
I dwell too much I’m not that strong I’m oblivious to what went wrong
Time and place, you say, it’s me or it’s you anything to get me out of your face
There’s nothing left the water’s still
You say don’t try but you know I will
Moving on isn’t making sense
There’s no way to explain no self defense
I’m backed up against the wall, something’s gotta give
Why do I always have to play this part?

Auto Pilot
02:04

Why can I not see?
The things in front of me
For what they’re supposed to be
Euphoric in my way
I can’t stay here anymore
I begin to shudder
The autopilot starts taking over
Fly me out of here
Higher then my deepest lows
I just can’t stay here anymore
All the words that I could say
Begin to slip away
Close my eyes and count to ten
And it all fades away
And if it were up to me
All the space in between
You and me would fill itself
And I wouldn’t have to leave
When I come back to me
And stand on solid ground
The earth beneath my feet
Trace fault lines in the soul
They slowly open up
I run for cover
And the autopilot starts taking over
Get me out of here
To some place I don’t know
I just can’t stay here anymore
Repeat Chorus 1 & 2
I’m taking this in stride
It happens all the time
After some days or months
I’m sure I’ll be alright
