collision

playing the part
you never thought you'd get this far
wild at heart
you knew he was trouble from the start
leaf through the signs
it wasn't hard to see the light
he hid inside
you wish that he could find but
night cruisin'
hundred twenty, cut the lights
think with your shut eyes
if there's a collision
what can you do
that's life
you don't wanna fight
you can't even lift an arm tonight
when you saw the knife
you knew it was just a matter of time
before he'd try
not a word could save the guy
scream all you'd like
he's in the devil's sights now
pull over
on the shoulder, hit the lights
& wipe your red eyes
it's getting late
there's always tomorrow
it's time

hunger
04:03
|
|||
|
crawl out of the gutter
in your suit, broken tooth
head on fire
find your way to the tunnel
out of sight, no more light
to expire
so out of touch
with the ones you once loved
broke, on the run
only cure leaves you numb
& really just makes you
hunger for more
call out for your mother
she's been gone for so long
still you try
hide under the covers
close your eyes, you're alive
one more night
spent all your years
running far from your fears
having conversations
with a lost space station
oh you try, but it's time
to go home

echo
03:46
|
|||
|
can't help but notice it
the more you echo
the less you find
you want to know
waiting for someone to
tell you where to go
the stars are burning out
the moon is laying low
when there's no melody
left inside your head
you just hum along
to whatever's on next
& the confused harmony
between the blue & red
always gets you down
no matter how much you pretend
nail it into your head
you could be better
forgot the bottle
on the shelf
think of the wonders it
just might have offered
the last time didn't help
you couldn't even tell
when there's no memory
feeding you regret
you could make the most
of what time you might have left
but the current remedy
is ripping you to shreds
never calms you down
not even when you rest

overkill
04:08
|

|
thought of moving up the hill
but remembered i just have
this 5 dollar bill
so i'll just kick this can until
the years die out & i regret
the overkill
lost the fight with winter
it's not the life i pictured
forgot to hide
so i'll wait here while the
demons flood inside
heard the news of your decay
called your mother
couldn't think of what to say
well i could just break down & pray
but thought it better
just to get out of this place
so push me through the filter
i'll fit into the picture
forgot to move
leaving me stuck in a position
i didn't choose

blackout
04:36
|
|||
|
i'll think i found solace in dreaming
then remind myself one day i'll wake
never could see so well in the evening
'if you stare long enough
then your eyes will adjust'
so i'm told, i hope they're right
wish i was sold on the divine
then come the times i feel so alive
catch myself & rewind
just keep it at bay
i see the face of the void
every night around 8
so let's hit the town
& have a few rounds
at least until we just about blackout
well, what do you say?
thought about telling you
what i was thinking
but if i did you'd surely run off
best stick to the script, keep it easy
just remember your lines
& i'll remember mine
could you show how you get past?
you be the mould, i'll be the cast
i'd kill to rewind, oh it's been some time
since i last felt alive
i must be insane; i still see the face
of the void, now it's whispering things
so let's skip this town, i gotta get out
this time it'll stop following me around
well, what do you say?
