Blue Days
03:43
|
|||
|
I’ve been feeling blue
Blue days hit me two ways
First in my stomach
Then their shooting thru my blue veins
I’m having mood swings
I feel so rearranged
It’s like they chopped me up and put me in a suitcase
I could use a new brain
‘Cause this one is broke
I said, “I’m ok”
I guess I misspoke
Yeah, I’ve been acting like I get it but I’m missing the joke
I woke up deep inside December but I’m missing my coat
You don’t know a thing about me
Washed ashore in a stormy sea
You don’t a thing about me
I’m thirsty, I’m dying upon my desert island
Why won’t you come save me?
I’m drowning in your silence
Black nights read me my last rites
Is it too late for this young sinner to get baptized?
I guess the bad guy is in my back mind
And he’ll keep driving like a psycho till we capsize
Swimming but I’m never breathing in
It’s getting difficult to finish all the shit that I pretended I could do
Balancing is challenging when everyone is adamant
That everyone and everything is what you lose
My ego is evil, it’s plotting to get me
My ego is me though, oh, which one is guilty?
Is anybody listening? I’ve been calling out for help
I need to know, is it even possible to live inside myself?
I want to shake these fucking blues like tiny raindrops from my boots
I want to run wild, I want to break through

Anything's Possible
04:04
|

I got my head shaved yesterday
So I could feel something new
When the world burns
I’ll be hanging out in my room
I’m a teenage superhero
Watch me melt this with my mind
I’ll restore the future, I can’t die
I’ll kickstart mankind
Is this real or are we dreaming?
They say that anything’s possible
So we’re still holding on
They say that anything, anything’s possible
They said our future was so bright
But now it’s dark as the moon
We told our teachers to hold tight
And then we walked right out the room
Is this real or are we dreaming?
They say that anything’s possible
So we’re still holding on
They say that anything, anything’s possible
Maybe our heads were in the clouds
Maybe we’re falling to the ground
All of the world still up in flames
All of our powers used in vein
How did we all become the chosen ones?
How did we all become the ones?
The whole worlds falling apart and they’re trying to tell me to calm down
Like everything’s going to be ok and everything will be alright
I wish I could go back in time cause I don’t feel alright
No I'm not ok, why am I the only one that’s afraid?

Running Through You
03:00
|
|||
|
I want a black ski mask
I want a heart attack
I don’t wear the straps on the rollercoaster
I want a cadillac, one that I can crash
There’s no turning back
I’m the holy roller
Living faster, getting closer
Being vulnerable
I feel alive, I’m terrified
like 50,000 volts running through you
Slow motion
There’s nothing like that feeling, emotion running through you
Everything slow motion
I want the aftermath, I want a front row seat
I want to fly too close, one hand on the holster
Do you like it like that? I know you like it like that
Is this what you need? Yes, please

Everything's Gone
03:50
|
|||
|
Say what you will say
Take what you can take
I swore that I wouldn’t stay
But truth is hard
I’m running out of goodbyes
I knew everything now, everything’s gonna change
I guess everything now, everything’s gonna change
Everything Gone
Don’t ask me to tell you how it all felt
‘Cause I don’t wanna relive another single day
I just want to move on and forget about the pain
I swore that I wouldn’t stay but truth is hard
I’m running out of goodbyes
I knew everything now, everything’s gonna change
I guess everything now, everything’s gonna change
Everything Gone
Gone, and it’s gone.
Everyday now I thank God for something
‘Cause it’s gone, yeah gone
Everyday now I thank God for something
Oh, everyday I thank God for something I have
‘Cause I know that it’s gone
Everything Gone

Don't Check it Out

Don’t check, no don’t check it out.
We’ve got to keep it moving

Moving On
03:16
|
|||
|
My mind is in motion
My head is in the clouds
I feel a strange emotion
What do we do now?
What is it you’re waiting for?
The day’s knocking at your door
So move, moving on
Don’t know what we’re saying
But saying it so loud
Looks a lot like praying
With all these eyes closed now
We don’t know what time it is
Is it retrograde or counterfeit?
I’m tired of being afraid of this
Let's turn the page on how we’ve been

Your Touch
03:45
|
|||
|
You drove the darkness away
but I’m gonna stay here now
I feel it deep in my bones
that I should go home right now
late at night under neon lights
nothing feels real
So don’t stop now
burn it all down
‘Cause I don’t you need your love
I just want your touch
I won’t lie
I wanna stay high
I don’t need your love
I just want your touch
Watched the ceiling decay
from the bed that we made
but the memory stains
sometimes i feel like a ghost
and nobody here knows my name
Late at night under neon lights
nothing feels real
people change but the season stays
nothing feels real

Slow
03:21
|
|||
|
Slow, emotions blur and rush on by
Where are we going? I don’t know
It’s my life, I’ll take my time
I know what I want
But I don’t know if it’s good enough
I need time to breathe it in right now
I want slow
I want to touch everything and love it all
Slow, slow
Maybe this is just a feeling or not at all
Lose myself in the strangest places
Where’s everyone else? I don’t know
Names will change and so will their faces
I wonder if I was ever really good enough
I need time to breathe it in right now
I want slow
I want to touch everything and love it all
Slow, slow
Maybe this is just a feeling or not at all
Slow, slow
I want to touch everything or not all
Slow, slow
Maybe this is just a feeling or not at all

Lonely People
03:09
|
|||
|
How do we get along? The writing is on the wall
Our hands are dirty enough, no lie
We didn’t nothing wrong
We’re just mindless thumbs
Youth in hysteria, no lie
We are lonely people
But we’re all together now
All together now
We are some lonely people
All together now
We apologize, we’re just scraping by
Please put down your guns, no lie
We won’t compromise, we’re still getting high
Youth in hysteria, no lie
We are lonely people
But we’re all together now
All together now
We are some lonely people
All together now
With no hesitation, you all think you’ve read my mind
We’ve finally made it out
With no meditation you all tear apart my mind
We finally made it out

Hello Sunshine
03:42
|
|||
|
I was walking
Floor to the ceiling
My feet never leaving
I was choking on another memory
Maybe I was, I was dreaming
My reality is believing
My love is winner under the sun
Don’t be anxious, if you’re anxious
Hello Sunshine I’ll be there
‘Cause you’re the only thing that's real around here
I see you, do you see me?
Interdimensional being
When I think or when I speak
You’re colors are beaming
Am I awake? Or am I dreaming?
Is this elation as true as it’s feeling?
My love is winner under the sun
Hello Sunshine I’ll be there
‘Cause you’re the only thing that’s real around here
The seeds we planted in soil
(if you want it to)
It will continue to grow
(if you want it to)
So tell me if you know
What it needs the most
If it’s alright I’ll take you along
Hello Sunshine I’ll be there
‘Cause you're the only thing that’s real around here

Night at the Zoo
03:50
|
|||
|
Lizard queen laid her eyes on me
Showed her teeth like a wolverine
I shed my skin like a summer snake
Spiraling ‘cause my back won’t break now
I got down with mother goose
She said I got a few screws loose
I think I’ll see myself out?
Boohoo
It sucks to be you
Boohoo
Another night at the zoo
I’m finally crawling out
Out of my cage now
And there’s no telling what
What I will do
Boohoo
Met a weasel with a wicked smile
He said he’s got a leopard on speed dial
I got in a pickle with a porcupine
I found my porpoise in a glass of wine
I helped a zebra cover up his stripes
And now he’s dancing in the disco light
Won’t someone help me out?

Shut Up and Show Me
03:30

Was it that bad
Was it that bad
That you felt sad
Oh come on
You were breaking my heart
All I see is stars
And it's coming fast for you now
Fast for you now
It's coming
And there’s nothing that you can do
I made it hard for you
To turn me down that’s true
II guess there’s nothing left
You’re feeling sad
I’m feeling bad
You’re breaking my heart
I’m falling apart
Hey hey hey
Shut up and show me
All my hard earned money down the drain
My heart is burning
Fuck the pain
Inside my head it’s all i see
Won’t you just shut up and show me
You got it bad
Well i got it bad too
Can't wait to say so
Shut up and show me
Shut up and show me
I’m on my knees babe
I guess i’ll wait at your feet until I'm dead
You don’t love me anymore
And that’s salacious just like you are
Just like you
Just like you are

See a Bit More
04:44
|
|||
|
In the beginning there was time,
It taught you never to say goodbye
But in the end, there’s no hope
And you always end up compromised
Yeah, you always end up compromised
You’re mind is racing through the past
Now you’re in danger
You feel just like a grain of sand floating
In the ocean’s grasp
Now you’re wondering who to blame
There’s no one to blame but yourself
You’ve loved too many, now you ask
“Is there even anyone left?”
See a bit more
You see a bit more today
In the beginning, had your chance
Thought you had it figured out
But at the end of the road
You know you always end of compromised
Oh yeah, you know you always end of compromised
Sometimes life will let you down
It gets even stranger
You feel just like a blade of grass
In a forest of golden calves
The sun in shining on you now,
You’re learning to forgive at last
You see a bit more
See a bit more today
Why don’t you?
You’re mind is racing through the past,
Now you’re in danger
You feel just like a grain of sand
Floating in the ocean’s grasp
Now you’re wondering who to blame
There’s no one to blame but yourself
You’ve loved too many, now you ask
“Is there even anyone left?”
You feel just like a blade of grass
In a forest of golden calves
The sun in shining on you now,
You’re learning to forgive at last

World, Are You With Me?
02:58
|

It’s time to get some sleep so everything can heal
Before you close your eyes and let the memories fade
World, are you with me right now?
It’s time to rome the streets and find ourselves a meal
Light you up that cigarette and take a deep breath
So glad you’re with me,
I’m so glad you’re with me right now
I caught a glimpse of heaven
In the whites of your eyes
Now I know that everything will be alright
It’s gonna be fine
It’s time to get some sleep so all my wounds can heal
It’s time to close my eyes and let the memories fade
World, are you with me right now?
