Wasted our supplies
Now the well is dry
Been wasted all the time
Can't seem to open up my eyes
Came here to win them over
Found they don't bring us closer
Push and pull til' we mend
Open your eyes my closest friend
I don't wanna be your
Enemy anymore
My own time is my own
Therapy Therapy
I don't wanna be your
Enemy anymore
Our divide is my own

Spiders

Smoke is coming from the basement
He hasn't left his chair in weeks
I'm awaking from a slumber
Still dizzy from recovery
Tell me to focus and to settle down
I say the only thing we need
Another place we haven't broken
Can't get the ash out of my sheets
Spiders crawling in my bed
Now I'm wide awake
And feel what I left
Cravings get the best of me
They're not what I want
But they're what I seek
And I play along
Lay awake and think of you
We'll move upstate and I'll be true
Forget all the things I did
Could you ever forget?

Barricades

Can't hear each others pleas
When you don't share the streets
You don't say hello
Barricades are blocking the exit
No one's talking anymore
Lacking the funds to find the cure
Don't look me in the eye
Too late to be surprised
Barricades are blocking the exit
It's all a toss where we go now
A great divide between our brows
We'll sit and wait dirty the clouds
My own two feet are blocking the exit

All alone in your apartment
I watch the clouds roll by
And the beasts were swimming
Into a cool damp night
All the people that I been with
Hope their shelters warm and bright
He smiled at me in a stairwell
It made me feel so paralyzed
In Chicago and she's dancing
Make sure the water don't run dry
She trusted me with all her records
Some Kind of Blue has got me high
All that is little is gigantic
So wipe that loathing from your eyes
Side 2 gets only better
It makes me feel so paralyzed
What you want from me
More than I ever could be
You can't hear the sound
What ya wanna oh what you wanna do now?
I can feel us reaching less and less alive
Silence is so crucial we have it to survive
Am I selfish for not listening?
Just got another tune in mind
Oh this great life makes me feel so MF'ing paralyzed
All alone in my apartment
I hear the buzzing from the flies
Yet another disappointment
Has made me feel so paralyzed

Instead of wasting all my days
Running my mouth with nothing saved
I'd rather turn off a switch or two
And wander further away from you
Saved by a setting sun
I will follow the trail we use to walk
The simple got shook right out of me
And I was left here unable to see
Push it forward cut it off
I'm unaccomplished but get on
Waking with an urge to start the day
Is better than our eternal escape
Saved by a setting sun
I will follow the trail we use to walk
The simple got shook right out of me
And I was left here unable to see
Saved by a setting sun
I felt the fresh air
Oh God it'd been so long
I needed to sweat you out of me
Become familiar with whoever I may be

In The Morning

What's the issue?
You took me home
Heard this happened
Once before
Man what's your problem?
You outta your mind
Are those drugs mine?
Is she still stuck on your mind?
I use to laugh at
What I've become
But I didn't know
Nothin' at all
Man what's your problem?
You outta your mind
Quiet hold me tight
I got you stuck on my mind
I wanna get you in the mornin'

These days have become a maze
Perpetual escape from you
Stealing from my friends
Find scraps and I push on
My pride dispensed
It's hard to separate
The sun drenched days with you
When things seemed safe
The night I chose to leave
Was still with mockery
My hands will never clean
Where do I land out of the palm of your hand?

Too Close
02:00
|
|

You're not one of my kind
Never met someone like you before
This neighborhood is so nice
You're a little too close
You're a little too close
Can I borrow a smoke?
I've never heard of this band before
Think I'm gonna go home
You're a little too close
You're a little too close
And I'm a little too stoned
You're a little too close
Excuse me
I think I'm losing my voice

Didn't Mean It That Way

We're working all the time
Got one more tonight
Can your suggestions wait?
I didn't mean it that way
Fear don't make it on its own
Another episode
I can't tell night from day
I didn't mean it that way
I didn't mean it that way
You kept me waiting
While I was on time
You kept me waiting
Now I pay the price

Mirror you look right through me
Stare at you but the reflection's off
Still so numb
But got the heat back on
I got swallowed by all of the stirring
I can't hold a place in my father's hole
Still so numb
I wonder I wonder what's new
In the end I only turn blue
So numb but I'm better off
