The table is set I breathe in the light I run to go get My partner in crime My temperature's high A shadow is cast All pain is just life But it never lasts -------- I manage to lock Myself in the cold I manage to find My favorite coat A memory lies Tempts me back in time I don't take the bait I'm wed to the the night Far greater than any old story I'm dead in the evening I'm new in the morning You linger inside with your reasons I'll change with the seasons, I'll find my own meaning I pause with each step I can feel my lungs The thoughts in my mind They fail to keep up My feet take me there Before I can think My shivering hand Once sure is now weak -------- I reach for the door You reach for the blinds I open my heart You cover your eyes I'm married to Love I'll go where You lead Alone is alright I'm happy to bleed Far greater than any old story I'm dead in the evening I'm new in the morning You linger inside with your reasons I'll change with the seasons, I'll find my own meaning -------- Far deeper than any old feeling I hear my own body, it tells me I'm healing No longer ashamed of my story I'm dead in the evening, I'm new in the morning

I've been awake for years now But still some days I wake up Inside a face with make-up Still feeling like a break-up Memories seem far away now Like someone else's past life I've been awake for years now I secretly admire those who aren't afraid to make it up Your love has been remarried Your heart has been long buried Getting out of bed, getting out of bed Calling up your mom, letting out the dog Quitting on your job, staying in a lot  Sad songs are on repeat now Bad thoughts knock on your front door Reading in your room, breathing in your tomb Calling on your friends, wishing it would end Learning how to mend, wishing she would send... For you tonight You know you're right But that does not matter tonight You were not right for me People sometimes can be Here for only a time, you see
Just long enough to break you heart open wide
So that the next time you find love You’ll know that it is not love at all Until you make it that way The love that you make is all that is real Found out I was lying when I told you that eternity was something I could give Out loud, I would tell you that “forever” was a thing that I could offer you, you told you mom, you told your friends Here now, I am sitting with the only thing I ever really had at all to give
Here now, is the only thing I ever had to give, and it’s the only place to live Cause the past isn’t real, go ahead, try and show me all the things you should have done And the future isn’t real, go ahead, try and show me all the things you’ve not yet done If I could rewrite my vows, I’d swear to be here now
And, if I could fight for my needs and win, I’d leave them out We are not who we seem to be—not just a man, that’s just a small part of me We are buried underneath this ruse—if you can, try and see what you can see We’re not far, in our hearts, in our hands—we are glory, we are glory through and through In your hair, in my arms, underneath all the stars there’s a story we can use It’s not the love you take

It’s terrible how everybody’s on this Merry-go-round, we just want to get off We’re tired, tired of spinning around We’re everything, but we’re nothing at all I’m an anomaly, cause I’m still walking tall
It’s tragic, this tragedy is bring you down There’s fire in your eyes, and I’m warming up next to You We’re standing up surprised because we’re dancing perfectly still I’m growing up inside, but I’m feeling younger on the out There’s fire in our eyes, it’s no surprise When the antitheses of life runs and hides,
There’s courage here tonight Life isn't’ fair, that’d be missing the point It’s a difficult school, I don’t want to flunk out There’s magic, it’s magical seeing You here We’ve broken the mold, we can never return To to the illusions of old, the entire tunnel is Light The others are coming around There’s fire in your eyes, and I’m warming up next to You We’re standing up surprised because we’re dancing perfectly still I’m growing up inside, but I’m feeling younger on the out There’s fire in our eyes, it’s no surprise When the antitheses of life runs and hides,
There’s courage here tonight Nobody came to my graduation, so I eventually went home
But, later that year my congratulations was whispered in my ear: “Just observe the Stillness… There’s wisdom in the Silence”
“Just observe the Stillness… There’s fire in your eyes.”

Every day on my way I would see her there Perched atop the silver gate pointing out the way She was so angelic, pointing toward the heavens I had hoped she'd take me, take me Home again That was before you failed to show I was rubbernecking for you, I was rubbernecking for you I understood that you just had to go But I've been rubbernecking for you, rubbernecking for you Every day on my way I would see her there Perched atop the silver gate pointing out the way She was so angelic, pointing toward the heavens I had hoped she'd take me, take me Home again That was before you failed to show I was rubbernecking for you, I was rubbernecking for you I understood that you just had to go But I've been rubbernecking for you I've been looking out the window of my car Hoping that you didn't go too far That you'll return to haunt me as before
My rare bird

You were inside an egg Making sounds How did you do that Somehow you had breath You could move around How did you do that Forever seems like, a long time ago It's like there's a brain in my heart Dependence, seems like such a fiction I'm an actor now, an awful one, learning as I go  Babies don't seem quite so eager to run Is home so far away Ladies are pleased to be treated as gods It's not so hard to play This holo-game  You were inside your bed Still and fast asleep How could you do that Somehow you passed the test You could fly around Why did you come back Forever seems like, a long time ago It's like there's this pain in my heart Transcendence is contradiction I'm searching for Now, even though, it's all I've ever known Babies don't seem quite so eager to run Is home so far away Ladies are pleased to be treated as gods It's not so hard to play Saving begins with remembering you’re not Any-thing at all Men are consumed with a need to be seen
Cause it’s so hard to see The One playing this holo-game

The property line was clear To everyone else but (her) The kerosine lamp drew near The people would talk if they (knew) When Socrates was but a boy The letter increased two (fold) The Paraclete tugged, and she pulled A blasphemous scroll was unrolled “Can you take me farther from my parent’s house” The wishing well had held him back for so long “Will you try to barter with the centurions at the door” He was further down the road, but so young Precarious floorboards are shifting below My feet do not feel the cold of the snow Hilarious stories evolve as they’re told All of my friends have jobs The boundary lines were clear To everyone else but (him) The capricorn moon shone down The people would wake if they (knew) When Socrates was but a man The Spirit increased ten (fold) The particles sang on command The geometry spoke to his soul “Can you take us further than our father’s could?” The meaning seemed so empty, while the emptiness had meaning “Will you find the master, they are furious at the door” The voice inside my head was not my own Precarious floorboards are shifting below My feet do not feel the cold of the snow Hilarious stories evolve as they’re told All of my friends have jobs And all of their jobs are nothing at all All of my limbs fall off And all of my thoughts are nothing at all And all of my friends get off 
On all of the bad luck barely escaped And all of my hopes are dropped The kerosine burns perpetually in the Hall

How many hours must a man put in to reap a honest yield How many flowers must a woman get before she starts to feel I figured if I tried too hard you'd see right through my act You figured that I didn't try at all You noticed how my eyes lit up when I opened my heart I noticed how you didn't want to fall I wrote your name into the dust above my cot I whispered softly that I'd Love to take advantage of you now And, I imagined what our story would be like if we would learn to compromise Perhaps tonight How many hearts must a woman break before she finds her kindness How many bars must a man sit in before he compromises You figured that if you dug deep enough I’d automatically oblige
You were denied I noticed how your eyes teared up when you mentioned your dad I noticed how we both we kind of sad I screamed your name into air above our house I cursed you out because you wouldn't let me be who I'd become And, I imagined all the people with advice, and I was honestly surprised
When we survived Cause it appears that all we had to do mend From all the hours that our parents both put in When you accepted me, I realized that I’d never truly loved myself
And, so I tried… When I accepted you and all your fucked up ways you got real mad at me And, you cried Because my eyes Don’t lie

You’re all alone in your room, under the sheets Waiting for lungs to consume the air you breathe You imagine Love will come to you if you keep waiting (But Love won’t come) She’s outside, it’s cold tonight under streetlights Fairing the harshness of external elements She imagine’s Love is still inside her heart, and it is waiting (And it will come) To cut and to carry a few more stacks of tree anatomy To burn them alive so that we can just try to get inside of fate’s twisted mind To bruise and to burry the wounds that we’ve earned so selfishly To turn them aside so that we might reside in the place inside our minds Where our hearts might just feel alive Crawling back into mistakes that I’ve already made Wanting to act like I have not yet learned the lessons taught I just want to feel the way I felt when Love was taken (But love won’t go) You’re not alive unless you first try to taste your teeth Wishing is useless; you’ll find that Here is enough
You pretend that GOD’s inside that place that we call space (There is no space) You project outwardly all that you see
You protect all of these temporal things You calibrate your own frequency You pretend you are a mess when you’re free You relive things, you resist Me
You catch yourself in traps that you leave You predict, then you fulfill what you see You project outwardly all that You see Our hearts might just take the lead

Never mind all the times that I said that you should deny yourself Run instead in the way of your desire All this time you were always right, said that I should think with my heart But instead analyzed with my mind the fire Have you observed your face, it’s like a wave of grace You left without a trace, turn around, you are found, you’re not too late You were the hardest case, you rose above your shame, I want to hear you say, burn me down, burn me down, I am not afraid I was free so I ran so fast That I could not catch my breath Didn't care anymore, ‘cause I was inspired In the sun, I assumed that my Skin would melt because it was high Instead I came alive with the brightest smile

We paid off all our debts We made up for the mess we made We took off all our clothes We got out of the bed we made We added up the cost We knew that we had been too weak We made our message count We sang old songs ironically We tore off our beliefs We broke out of the walls we made We listened to our hearts We understand the ego's place We took off everything  That didn't really resonate We opened up ourselves To being wrong on everything From these heights we can feel the air, and all her glorious sites We can see the tears in every story We aren't weighed down anymore We're lighter than before We laugh at our lore Have you got the courage  Are not you affected  Didn't they attempt to Keep you disconnected Wouldn't you like to be set free It's all You, don't look at me We just need to re-member (We're part of the Ether, we're better together) We just need to dig deeper (Illusory constructs cause us to feel severed) We just need all the others  (Apart from the surface, but joined at nether) Along with the voices, we carry our hearts back Hone It's like the end of an age (Our parents are gone, and the memories fade) The camera pans to the stage (The people we hang with are feeling their age)  Can the feel the, can the feel the pain (Oooo-oooo-ooooh) We all feel the, We all feel the aches Before she takes back her place Make no mistake, those who stand in her way, will fall in Love We're better off My hand to GOD That I am real More real than any story
