Everybody's Me

We're not so different, you and I
It's just a matter of time till we collide
See, travelling at the same pace like this
Either leads us straight in, or we'll completely miss
The very reasons why we thought that we
Were so unique, alone, broken, free

The Moment

So here we are
Desperate for a
Little compassion
To find its way
Across the stars
And wipe away the
Tears in loving fashion
Then hope it stays

You sneak out at
Night, to take
A little stroll
Searching the alleys
For anything that
You can make
Into a heart, your own
To fill the valleys

I followed you
Traced every pace
Slipped ahead when
You almost fell
In time to catch you
Quickly fade
In darkness then
So you never knew hell

So there we were
Broken whole again
Not one or two
But a thousand
Pieces of hurt
Gone, and then
I turned to you
and said aloud


[I think our moment's now]

Early

Wake up and hear
The sound of
Morning on your
Ears, it's quiet
But loud with
The sound of
Being born again

In The Air

Close your eyes
Fall with me
Here we go
No more strings
Cables, cords, catches
We'll have none

Take a breath
Fly with me
Here we go
It's the same
Thing, isn't it?

Realistic

It's called a smile
Use it, because when
It surfaces, all is
Forgotten just like that
Then wink, the hope
That carefree days
Are to come again
And with that, slowly
Walk away

[Before they see anything else]

Shout For Me

Hearing you's an impossibility
With all the water around
Clouds marking my horizon
I'll slowly swim away

Worse With Time

For each new day
One small remnant
Remains from the past
Getting smaller and
Even vaguer as
Time steals your heart

Why A Lie Is Better

Better to steal a memory
Than make a new one
With anyone, everyone
One grows to two
Then before you realise
It, the albums are full
So is your heart
And when they've left
It's a chest full of
Memories you'll never lose

Hello Goodbye

Hurts to know
How little you care
Help me understand
Happiness for a while

Most Of These

Little lines
Filling lines
Burning time
Why do I bother?

Bite The Curb

Give them a wink
A nod and a smile
So they'll think
You're only gone for a while
Disappear before
Your presence is missed
Footprints on the shore
Washed away before noticed

Pull Over

Just let me out
Already
This car's going
Too fast
And I'm far
Too drive to drunk
That's what the
Twenty straight shots'll
Do to you
Boom, straight to the head
Good night, and fuck off

Little More Than Nothing

It's what hurts
Far beyond the reaches
Of what you knew
Stretching past
Every single emotion
Slipping through the
Sounds of breaking
All around you
It might be a little
More than nothing
But it's enough

Billion Reasons

But I'll take one
As it's all I want
To hear, and proof
Enough

Kneeling In The Dirt

I need the rescue
And I just sent
My s.o.s to the heavens
On the lips of a prayer
Barely enough breath
In it to fly away
I hope it makes it

Vague In Clarity

So I don't know
I mean, I do
Yet I'm sure about it
It could be that
I'm positively sure
I haven't yet
Reached a conclusive
Indecision, sound good?

Beautiful Affliction

Every reason
I lie to myself
Why I can survive
And never be
Broken with you
Because of you
And that's just it
The lie I say
Everyday

Just Breathing

Came hell then high water
I'm still standing
And I can laugh in the face
Of all the wrongs I know
It's sad that I've broken
The last caring part of me

Dare You To

Tell me you remembered me
I dare you to lie like that
Or say you gave a damn
Just try it, it's easy
You only need to change
A single word, and it's
All ok, like it never
Was a problem
So I dare you, I fucking do
To say the line you've
Been saving for me
Say it, say
"I'm sorry"
Oh I dare you to

Lie-lluby

You gave me something to believe in
A breath for the breathing
And I wrote it down, that I don't
Think that I'll close my eyes
Because lately I've been dreaming
That there was no point in sleeping
And so every night, I found somewhere to hide
Sleepless, I wrote you a lullaby
So come and wish me goodnight
