I think I'm dying when I can't tell if I'm awake I think it's there and this is my hell, with lifeless snakes And now they've got a million to sell, like every angel fell Everywhere you go now, get away No matter where it goes down, stay away From every place, get away from every place See inside of sleepy hotels under the moon Forget the cards that I was once dealt, never too soon I won't go unless you're there, I won't go until I care Everywhere you go now, get away No matter where it goes down, stay away I dig a hundred holes now, every day These habits take their tolls now, every day It's every day And I fall to the floor When I get home There's no light on the door

You'll ride - live inside the vice You'll ride - falling down flights of stairs High in paradise, you'll ride Backwards movements, don't care Once more, the spender to rob me of cents And all is all I see before it Public defenders all run to the fence And all is all until I hear my name You'll ride - live inside the vice You'll ride - falling down flights of stairs High in paradise, you'll ride Backwards movements, nowhere Once more, the spender to rob me of cents And all is all I see before it Public defenders all run to the fence And all is all until I see the All until I see the All until I see the stain

No Mouth 02:00
They called you, Hannah - no mouth to speak up The flesh is the future, the youth spread the new dirt Each new year gets shorter, the first one is torture But it won't change your mind In our yard with a view, I stood there beside you The last day we both knew would be there too soon So I go all night, I just deflect, it's alright The pressure is all mine The past still burns a printed line Could nothing burden me like time, To watch the maggots turn to flies? So long to the new debt Goodbye to a failed bet To live now, you go there I don't care I don't care I don't care I don't care

Mister mister, tell me how to see Tell me, tell me how the grass is green It's harder than it seems to look into a mirror I've seen it in a dream, the faces getting clearer Close my eyes, everything fades away Fail to see the difference, going seperate ways Waiting for the next life, waiting to be free And put my mind at ease Listen, listen, have you heard the rest? Please don't fear the feeling in your chest It's only second best, your mind is running wild Stop and take a breath, you're acting like a child Come alive, no time left to waste Every year gets shorter, hard to keep the pace Falling back to nothing, falling back to dirt The pain of truth is worse

Panorama 01:53
Don't look down when someone comes the other way The feeling comes, the feeling goes away and if it shows, why must it be this way? and yes I know, there's still so much to say Don't stand near me, you're in the way Don't stand near me, not today Stake your claim on the last chance to escape THE WORLD'S NOT THERE, IT DOESN'T KNOW YOUR NAME and if you know, why do play this game? and yes it shows, you're so full of your shame Don't stand near me, you're in the way Don't stand near me, not today

Take It 00:42
Come and take it away You're not the first one to be Tangled up in the pain No one knows

Somewhere, it will hit someone Someone will see it coming Tied down by gifts they gave you Won't bite unless they're made to It won't take, it will not take you anywhere It won't care if you're there It will not take you anywhere Someday Nevada lays asleep, it's back to one I can't tell but it conjures me, a head for every gun Kali Yuga Kali Yuga Kali Yuga

Gliders 02:46
He was the last one I met He used to hold his head in his hands He never meant to make amends He’d die alone if he was right until the end and still on his time you defend cause he’d never lie to a friend and they live inside parentheses Still hold it tight until it’s free I hope he does Eyes for headlights Guided tonight Still bright, still nowhere You keep calling Please stop calling Holed out, still nowhere Pointed to ground Burn the whole town Lay down, still nowhere Eyes for headlights Guided tonight So bright, still nowhere Eyes for headlights Leaving tonight Still bright, but still nowhere

Wake up in the morning, I've got nowhere to go I'm going downtown, I'm gonna see the show I wish I was better, I wish I could show my face I wish I just knew my place anymore Standing in the back room all night long I'm just waiting, waiting for the song Waiting for the song 3 o'clock in the morning Last call, time to go But I'm still not ready to go home

Blue Light 03:45
Maybe red, maybe I'm there Spin my head, suddenly start to care There goes the sign, put up no fight On top of tents we hang blue light No one day keeps you alive Come my way long before last goodbye You'll miss these days all of the time Where did they go? They're all blue light

Blue book deep inside my head Keep calling upon that notion Demon feeds upon the dead New blood could fill the ocean ...tell them Pleasure stops controlling you Pressure takes a hold of you You know it's the truth Dialed in, dark foreboding view Final sin is forgiven, too You know what to do ...kill them

Ursa Major 03:20
Invisible ray beams Sent through the darkness, open my eyes Nothing could save me From feeling so helpless, nervous and selfish No one could say, usher in the new way there Through the floor I nail these hands My new face sheds all demand Harbinger holds me Tells me I'm drowning in my own life Silver pine bracelet I need to escape this, the walls are too high No one could say, usher in the new way there Through the floor I nail these hands I can't pretend to understand

Good Bones 02:19
Still never aware when it gets there It's wearing us out I shouldn't care but it tears me down Who's holding my life by the sides? Who's fueling the doubt? I've held in my breath up until right now Stop using the name, you're headed there It's not so far, it's not anywhere Get out of your way when you're headed there You're not so far, you're already there Way up to the top of the mountain Strayed so far from home Consider the lies that hit the most Deep down in your mind, where no one's there Red lid on the coast What you'll leave behind as a dusted ghost Stop using the name, you're headed there It's not so far, it's not anywhere Get out of your way when you're headed there You're not so far, you're already there

Far away after the rain In a silent way, I feel as one Lost and found, soft wings unbound The joyous sound of dragonflies Stop talking, start walking, fast forward Our future fresh sutures bleed I HOLD THE HEAD OF EVERYWHERE I hold your place until you care Bury your face with every dare The other side is on the air Is on the air Is on the air Hold tight with nowhere to go Settle down, give it a chance Hold tight with nowhere to go Try again, open your eyes
20.
When I get home you've been here all day I'm never alone, the feel is not your forte All I see in you is your pride And you're not the first one to hide Fingers barely stay on your hands Wow - you're in demand (I used to say... I used to say... he sounds like shit.) Lie awake, another sleepless night insane Linear hotbed of pain Time feels so strange Have you had enough of yourself? Can you stand to see it all go to hell? Perfect starts to tear at the seams Man - what a dream What a dream
21.
Hold out, connect the door to the exit Keep the peace - all night journey Last look, afterwards we can laugh Laugh and sing - all night journey When will enough be enough, watching the walls fall away Nothing is ever the same, never the same Outside, white light, bright light Born again Head down, face down The exit is the entrance either way Help yourself Take your time, the rest is fine When will enough be enough, watching the walls fall away Nothing is ever the same, never the same I never knew it, I never knew Never knew what to tell myself
22.
On Fire 02:22
Soul on fire, like standing on the coal World desire, like staring at a hole My mind's made up on Unraveled razor wire - think I just might retire Head for liar A silver frame can't stay the same Tell me the difference, tell me the name Don't leave it standing out in the rain Soul on fire, life pouring from the mold World desire down from the head you hold Wait for the train to pass Wade through the broken glass until they find your ass Hit the grass A silver frame can't stay the same Tell me the difference, tell me the name Don't leave it standing out in the rain

Limbo 01:45
(Slow down) Do you hear that answer, growing like a cancer? Crawling like a dancer, hidden underneath Four walls in motion at the bottom of the ocean That's a seperate notion I don't understand (Slow down) Do you hear that answer, growing like a cancer? Crawling like a dancer, hidden underneath Four walls in motion at the bottom of the ocean That's a seperate notion I don't understand
24.
Nothing left to offer up Nothing to avoid Focused on a living face Paranoid Can’t forget there’s nothing left Minerals, alloys Looking for the hidden place Illinois My chest open now Surface coats my town Now we hold this in your hand I won’t wade through this again Couldn’t get high if you tried Bleed until you wake The only sound underground Silver hake Your brains coat the wall One last look at the hall Now we hold this in your hand I won’t wade through this again

In my window Heat of street and follow Lights push through night Out the window Staring down I hold the head that finds you This is the final sight I hold the head that finds you This is the final sight Years after the end Don't hide this again Her eyes make the dark We stared at the yard Her hands open wide I stay right behind Our gaze never crossed We stared at the yard
27.
Raindrop falling down Gently hits the ground The sound surrounds the day The test proceeds the grade Message in the sky A strange way to say goodbye You can become yourself You can remove the belt The knot can be undone The best is yet to come
