Fractured
03:34
|

Motion, your mind
Mind
Clap to the waters, false
Dream of the faulters, of their salts
For I am gone
Pawned off, a con
I am fractured now
Ooh could you see us together
Ooh could you mean this forever
Ooh could you see us together
Ooh could you mean this forever
Ooh could you see us together

Say What You Need To Say
03:35
|
|||
It’s getting late
Hidden shivers in the driveway
I’m thinking, overthinking it and it plays, plays, plays
Do you really know me?
I am barreling away
Can’t keep the lights on and I’m running out of names
What I want to say
Say what you need to say to me
The words won’t cut me open
You got me breathing deep
Say what you need to say to me
I’m caught up in a bullish ocean
And I couldn’t see
Thinking of my life here now
Running all the circles around and around
We’re close-knit, fleeting, how my heart’s beating so loud
You can call me out
I am havoc and I try not to let you down
I’m seething, how my heart’s reeling without
I’m out
Say what you need to say to me
The words won’t cut me open
You got me breathing deep
Say what you need to say to me
I’m caught up in a bullish ocean
And I couldn’t see
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say

The Skirmishers
04:16
|

Fully thrown
Please don’t go
The happening, they’re after me
I’m hidden in the snow
And I don’t know
They hold their aim
They lie in wait
They’re coming close and slowly stalling
I sit up straight
I fear the cutaway
And all along the sky is falling
Cavalier
Forever foreign fear
The hidden hurts
I fear I struck a nerve and now
It’s happening, they’re after me
They hold their aim
They lie in wait
They’re coming close and slowly stalling
I sit up straight
I fear the cutaway
And all along the sky is falling
The small arms now
They’re clearly calling
Don’t run to close the gate
Take it in slow
Old guard with their old fine hopes
And all along the sky is falling
Peering right through the glow
How they’re watching me
In all of my episodes, they know
Bordering, skirmishing
Watching, but they can never know
They hold their aim
They lie in wait
Coming close and slowly stalling
I sit up straight
I fear the cutaway
And all along the sky is falling
The small arms now
They’re clearly calling
Don’t run to close the gate
Take it in slow
Old guard with their old fine hopes
And all along the sky is falling

Washed Away
04:08
|
|||
That's it
It's too late to begin again
To call your name
Sprawling thin
Coming close, immediate
The thawed moraine
When the winters end
All the loss of everything
Waiting for us someday
When the nightmares send
Full on, the slowed wave
And we are washed away
Still caught in it
We had brought dominion
The sullen shade
Just the thought within
That we alone are sentient
The golden way
When the winters end
All the loss of everything
Waiting for us someday
When the nightmares send
Full on, the slowed wave
And we are washed away
We are washed away
Slow start, wool ceiling
All falter we all fall feeling
New heart, full healing
Low crawl but we all believe it
Slow start, wool ceiling
All falter we all fall feeling
New heart, full healing
Low crawl but we all believe it

Cold
04:19
|

Everything is set in motion
Wait still for the crossing's run, all done
Scribbling I still wrote it golden
I keep it all clear, keep it all spun
Is there anybody out there who can hear me
I’m praying in the undertow
Bruise water like a stone
It’s a shakedown here
I fight back, fight back
I’m still coming in cold
You got me laying here in cryosleep
No feels I can’t hear
I’m waking up from borrowed dreams, but I see
It’s a missing feeling I can’t believe
Everything come over me
Is there anybody out there who can hear me
I’m praying in the undertow
Bruise water like a stone
It’s a shakedown here
I fight back, fight back
I’m still coming in cold
So cold
I’m still coming in cold
Is there anybody out there who can hear me
It’s a shakedown here
I fight back, fight back
I’m still coming in cold

Somewhere in the Valley
03:44
|
|||
I’m waking up
The wrappings from my eyes are peeling off
I’m climbing up
Walls with shivered eyes, a bitter cup
Somewhere in the valley speaks
Meet me
Meet me, meet me there
Meet me there
Not giving up
The crossings come with cues the hunger brought
It speaks to me of softer things
I’m losing it
The busy beat of time, it’s bruising
Somewhere in the valley speaks

Long Way
03:31
|
|||
I see your love for a moment
I feel your touch has softened
Baby, we’re a long way
From the water’s warmth
Baby, we’re a long way
From the water’s warmth
Holding on I'm holding
What did I do wrong
I can't feel the weight, the steel, the way that I used to
Where did I go wrong
Baby, we’re a long way
From the water’s warmth
Baby, we’re a long way
From the water’s warmth
Baby, we’re a long way
From the water’s warmth
Baby, we’re a long way
From the water’s warmth

Running Dark
04:17
|
|||
Holding still, hiding in the hills
The monsters fall in line, they're coming
Running dark, I feed the guilty spark
The cruelest part of me
Breathe the thrill, waiting for the kill
The hunters in the night, they're coming
They're coming
And I know that they want me
And I know that they want me still
They want me still
They're coming
And I know that they want me
And I know they want
They're coming
And I know that they want me
I know still

Refine It
04:43
|
|||
I was pushing it, moving on
I was formidable, moving it all, to the woods
I’d be lying, but I couldn’t lie to you, I couldn’t lie to you
I’d be a sight, I know, if I let it all go
So I’ll let it all go
So I’ll let it all go
So I’ll let it all go
So I’ll let it all go
How could I refine it, redesign it
Oh I know there’s layers to this, we reminisce of better days
I’d be lying, but I couldn’t lie to you, I couldn’t lie to you
I’d be a sight, I know, if I let it all go

Traitor
03:29
|
|||
Not all will be forgiven
I cut away
I blur it all, amend it
The bitter lathe
The traitor waits
If we could go back and see the moment
Would you try again?
If we could go back and see the moment
Would you try again?
The truth we learn from fiction
The withered page
We burn it all, lament it
We get a say
The traitor waits
If we could go back and see the moment
Would you try again?
If we could go back and see the moment
Would you try again?
If we could go back and see the moment
Would you try again?
If we could go back and see the moment
Would you try again?
Not all will be forgiven
I cut away
