And when the time has come will you run off to make your mark?
Your secret lullaby will pull my strings to hurt my pride
I'm wandering off again
You're bored again, so cold again
I'm counting the fingers off my hands
And when I tell you so your lips they smack with tight control
You smoked the rest of me and crushed me on the cracked cement
If you're so bored if you're so grown why don't you run away?
I'm counting the fingers off my hands

We're out of time
He's breathing in but he's been dead the whole time
I'm looking in
His hollow body couldn't save him from this
Into the ghost, we go
Are you afraid?
I'm not ashamed to feel this way
You always say "a father would never leave his kids he'd stay"
But I'm afraid
You're breathing in but you've been dead the whole time
I'm looking in
Am I too late to see you in the light?
Into the ghost, we go
I'm not afraid of you
I'm not afraid of me
I'm not afraid to be

Next To Me

Can you shake out all your dreams?
Come with a smile on your face
I could take your hand and run
And then we'd fall on the floor
When you're standing at my door you leave me wanting more
But only dreams, I keep them next to me
You've lit a fire inside my bones
Yeah you say you are tough
Narrow eyes when the timing is right
If you think that's enough
Go and wait for the morning light
I'm waiting too long I've had it I want to scream
And fuck being patient I'm fragile I'm not weak
When you're standing at my door you leave me wanting more
But only in my dreams, I keep them next to me
You've lit a fire inside my bones

Drown

When you drown
You try your best to float
Death in your eyes
Fingers cold
My dreams have failed
But I can see
If I blink twice
Will you appear?
My love is vast
It fills the air

Our Red Door

Sometimes
I speak too loudly
Around you
When I'm far
I'm thinking
When does it end?
Wearing thin
So tired
Remove this cast
I want to see what's real
Sometimes
I see this red door
When I step in
I fall right in
Then I see your red eyes
Your hard skin
Your thin veins
You're bleeding
Saying - "Someday I'll get you out"

I think I need a break
My head sticks out of place
I need to take a walk
I'll sleep when morning comes
If I can't breathe under the sheets
I'll be walking over the stars
This fear I hold inside of me
I hide so no one else can see
When I am up I'll sing, I'll dance 'til the sun's up
Hang around with my friends, take us for a ride
I guess we're near the end
I find this hard to begin
I'll think about what's next
And I'll drown in sorrowful bliss

Why I Say No
04:40

Back when I was young
I thought it was clever
To stand up like my mama
My head up like I mean it
And if I cross my legs
Will I be like the others?
And if I stand up straight
Will I climb, climb, climb?
To the top
Where I'm not
That's why I say no
I guess I'm just insane
Yeah I'm told I've got no brain
If I smile I'll be perfect
Then I'll die with purpose
I'll force my smile
I'll fix my hair
Clean up my house
Shut up right now
I'll think about the good I've done
Say "yes" and breathe when I am done
And if I cross my legs
Will I be like the others?
And if I stand up straight
Will I climb, climb, climb?
To the top
Where I'm not
That's why I say no

SLOW

Show me which way to go
Lead me and we'll take it slow
Sneaking in your parents bed
Laughing 'til our faces turn red
Out of control
This pattern
I'm taking deep breaths
Show me which way to go
Lead me and we'll take it slow
Sneaking in your parents bed
Laughing 'til our faces turn red
Sinking 'til I cannot swim
Hold me because I feel so thin
Out of control
This pattern
I'm taking deep breaths
Take it slow, we'll take it slow (don't come back)

Turn Into

My shadow disappeared
Been gone for several years
I wait for it's return
I'll be here
I'll be waiting
The mirror creeps on me
Melting suddenly
I forget as time goes by
I wish for a new sign
As long as it is gone
I won't be here for long
My shadow disappeared
Come help me, come save me
Now that you're by my side
Don't leave, don't hurt my pride
You've turned into the sign I've wished for
The light kisses my eyelids
As I take a short breath
I'm coming home

Always finding albums like this that I wish I discovered years ago. Love, love, love this, from the simple arrangements to the Bond theme and screams of 'I know the end'.
