No Connection Is Made
05:15
|
|
||
The emptiness of our routine
Can’t be heard and can’t be seen
Raise your voice I turn away
Avert the eyes, no connection is made
Further signs we never match
You detach when I collapse
The angels carved you with a blade
You seek perfection, no connection is made
No connection is made

I Never Saw The Light
02:52
|
|
||
Remember coming home from work and sleeping through the afternoon?
A chalice full of lies
I never saw the light until my simple life flashed before my eyes
And there was nothing that I cared enough to die for
Face against the floor in a nightmare of the same
I’ll be waking up to hatred veiled as a bribe
There’s a crew with demolition fever
And the crane is second nature to the love they never felt
Some evenings end before they start while others tear your life apart
Select whichever side and stare into the light before the memory says it wasn’t right
In a paradise of unfulfilled exceptions
I never saw the light

Laws Don't Belong
02:07
|
|
||
Laws don’t belong where there is no wrong
Laws don’t belong where there is no wrong
I’ve seen it again and again
Frame by frame delay with footage all so fake
The harmless locked away, it’s the same old song
Laws don’t belong where there is no wrong
Laws don’t belong where there is no wrong
Where there is no wrong

All Broken Signs
03:17
|
|
||
Silence is a camouflage we blend into the mess
The crowd is vanishing, what happens next?
You could give a thousand sermons and never make a sound
An act so commonplace on common ground
This is when the stars go out and comets interrupt the play
All broken signs read clear as day
Even if we break the ice we’ll never make it out alive
A chance to hold each other before we die

Cross The Line
02:49
|
|
||
Don’t make this harder than it seems to cross the line
My memory fails around this time
You’re in my dreams but something’s always different than before
No less no more
You track me down it comes as no surprise
You’ve crossed the line

Today Will Be The Day
03:31
|
|
||
I’m not game for the tricks that you play
My heart is in the wrong place
Can’t get up I’m spent and afraid
Today will be the day
Loose ends twisted in a sailor’s knot
Hang tight to last a second shock
These are moments we record for when we settle our score
I’m no cunt red anger in my face
My heart is in the wrong place
You’ll be there in shivers when it breaks
Today will be the day

Days Go By
05:43
|
|
||
Your reply took so long that I couldn’t understand the phrase
Days go by, spending all my time wishing that I caught your name
Stale inside every single night pandering to the "where?" and the "why?"
Days go by, nothing blows my mind
You must have been the best that I’ve had

Dead Magnolia
04:07
|
|
||
“You’re the color of my favorite scar” Miriam said
A dead magnolia resting in her hair from heaven knows where
Her garden stretches far and wide through a terrace of pines
And I could have swore I died a million times to stare in her eyes
If I cry before the credits role don’t idle the hearse
You’ve been one to save the best for last in stages of thirds
Well I’m the crow that calls beyond its nest “our shelter survived”
And when the flowers vanish in the field, a fog arrives

Where Did My Curse Go?
03:22
|
|
||
Where did my curse go?
Deep in to the night?
Receiving the messages
“Your wish is my command”
Skating on the thin ice never felt so nice
Lifting the hex with a presence
“Say the magic word”
And you left me in darkness, in a state of disrepair
With treatment so silent when we turn another leaf
Alone with the voices that led me through the trees
Moving in circles
"Your secret is safe with me”

A Man Of My Ways
03:15
|
|
||
I’ve seen tragedy after tragedy
Move beyond me, not affecting me
Through the sentiment all the sediment erupts
In a manner of repressing urges
And that my friend has always been the case
Of a lifetime while falling from the sky
You could shake me out of my orbit, but I’m a man of my ways;
Something you can’t replace
You should write me and tell me what it’s like
On the opposite side of the wall
Maybe I’m in need of some perspective,
Does the catch amount the chase?
Some things you can’t replace
