the ones who kept me up the latest
the ones who I bequeath my darkest secrets
the ones untied who I try my hardest to never let down
even though I’m sure it’s happened
the ones I can, without worry, say I love
the ones who lead the charge against nearest evil
in the blind spot where I still see him
waving down the halls on tiled floors
hopping to the next adventure
all the lights stay off but we’re still bright
a haven where I know for sure
I’m satisfied
where evil sleeps I plan his escape
to replace the unmoving uncoughing wretched scum with he who is also not unlike me
but understands the importance of leaving others alone
and not getting too close
first impressions can say and mean a lot
but if you rely on those you’re sure to get fucked
people know how to change
and they pick the wrong time to do it

Ash Gray Dancing
01:27
|
|
||
wait half the light up through the night
dancing, takes you home
the ash gray settles and you’re free
the home stretch is visible
ash gray dancing
soft romancing
the white haired stone glimmering in the sky
ash gray dancing
fifth time chancing
the west sign that marks where you’ll fly

The Scene Is Dead
02:07
|
|

sitting on your throne
wondering why you think no one’s home
thinking the same thoughts every day
never looking up at them
to hear them say
wake up in monochrome
who’s sitting on your throne?
living the college dream
starry eyed boy with a hint of a gleam
singing the songs every day
never noticing that no one stays

Vanity Flight
04:22

flying carpet tells of his vanity flight
dying student tells of his lonely night
to all with patience willing to listen to his lecture
ace of hearts tells of her miracle storm
queen of clubs keeps her little spades warm
arm in arm with their perfection
where the candles don't burn, where the children don't learn
where the knights don't bear their armor
she waits outside the gate where they can't harm her
queen of her stone, she holds to her heart
insanity flights not to tear her apart
colder eyes can burn but they won't set her off
her eyes are taking a stand
the ice above her hand
the clubs around her domain
the clouded force at large
its overbearing overreaching
saving the world at large
from the lessons they're not teaching
watching them drive by
it'll never be the same
pumping their nervous lives with negative energy
queen of clubs came home last night
broken from her last golden vanity flight
all with patience welcome to her lecture
mistakes unforgiving and unwilling to learn
wiping the tears as she watches her life burn
there's really nothing new to tell her

Dead Memorial
01:27
|
|
||
where it always has you in
where it takes you aside to let the show begin
where it knows you’re on your way somewhere
but the nowhere isn’t letting go
driving by your last surviving miracle
memorials for every chance you blew
dying to say thank you

Theory

you picked me up
a light gleaming over
and taking me as your own
you put me down
the moon hanging over
and into this breaking home

The Loneliest Ghost
04:06
|
|

nights spent doing nothing
waiting for the melatonin to kick in
eyes wander, thirsting something
waiting for the big night out to begin
what’s the point of waiting when I know there’s no hope?
hanging out in front of their door
what am I in it for?
maybe another night
they’ll be ready for me over
when they’re not asleep by 10
and I’m not sick again
or what if I’m antsy for glory days that will never happen again?
do I cling too much to my friends?
where does the sorry end?
come home
I beg you where’d you go?
we’ve been waiting for your return
while away what did you learn?

Body Pillow
02:02
|
|
||
they let me bleed out in time
to greet the crowd with
encouraging words of hate and struggle
it goes the same every time
there’s no winning this race
ready for the embrace
they never listened then
so why are they so special now
embrace stigmata

Grinder
02:48
|
|

they stayed strong for the working men
their children hanging close to arm
their others standing by, holding up their hands
anything to not break down
the circus rallies on, the proles head out to sea
to mine the depths and rimes that we knew could never be
the capsized lung collapsed, the riders marching on
the tune is long since done but they’ll still march along
they stayed strong for the working women
their settlements paying off
the scene, ever rising, takes hold of their knees
and begs for playing off

take my hand tonight
walk into the light
where the shadows are so bright
the air is thinning light
out here out of sight
I’ll tuck you in if that’s all right
dresses left behind
bet I lost my mind
look for whatever you can find
lost control, steered it blind
here we stand resigned
head on out to go unwind
carry our souls around
to the eye of the storm
old friends from way back when
never thought I’d see it again
I can’t leave her to drown
who knows when I’ll come back to this town
I wanna see her again
thunder right on cue
I guess my presence’s due
whatever goals I had went through
is there nothing new?
is this all they want me to do?
I’m not out here just to lose you
