Falling

Give me an inch
I'll take a foot
My thirst can't be met
Mouth as dry as wood
Falling in too deep
Falling in too deep
I know what to do
Can't make a move
Puppet on a string
Before I know I'm
Falling in too deep
Falling in too deep
A goldfish will not grow
Beyond its wall of glass
It's one thing to know
Another thing to act
Falling in too deep
Falling in too deep
Falling in, falling out
Falling through, falling down
Falling under, falling fast
I can't take this heart attack
Falling behind, falling apart
I don't want this anymore
Falling in, falling out
Falling through, falling down
Falling in too deep
Falling in too deep
Falling in too deep

Puddles

If there's heaven, why do angels cry?
If there's not what happens when we die?
Puddles gather tears from angels above
Lovers banter jeers but out of love
If there's heaven, why do angels cry?
If there's not what happens when we die?
Three A.M. I hear music in my head
Check the house for ghosts, then back to bed
If there's heaven, why do angels cry?
If there's not what happens when we die?
You say demons populate the firey depths of hell
Which I can't contemplate, perhaps it's just as well
The idea of eternal nothing is terrifying
Lie to me, tell me there's something glorifying
If there's heaven, why do angels cry?
If there's not what happens when we die?

Nothing to Prove

Got nothing to prove to you
Better than having something to hide
Got nothing to prove to you
What you see is what's inside
Got nothing to prove
I got better things to do
Got nothing to prove
What am I to you?
Got nothing to prove to you
Better than having something to hide
If you're not going to play,
what you say doesn't mean a thing
If you're not going play the game,
I don't care what you think of me
Got nothing to prove
I got better things to do
Got nothing to prove
What am I to you?
Got nothing to prove to you
Better than having something to hide
Don't tell that you think
I'm not enough
Don't tell me that you think
I'm not worthy of love
Got nothing to prove
I got better things to do
Got nothing to prove
What am I to you?
Got nothing to prove to you
Better than having something to hide
Got nothing to prove to you
Better than having something to hide
Got nothing to prove to you
Better than having something to hide
Got nothing to prove to you
Better than having something to hide

She's not afraid to draw blood
I kind of like that about her
Tempted to cry and scream
but sometimes silence is louder
It's her vengeance to redeem herself
Her agency and power
Identifies her prey
One and done, at least you don't suffer
She goes in for the kill
No time for second thoughts
Devours her prey
And takes exactly what she wants
She's a prowler and a mouser
and a hunter and a cheater
A monster and a lover fervent
A fury fierce and small
She's a fighter and a liar
and a pessimistic talker
A feminist bar hopper
She puts herself above them all
She's not afraid to draw blood
I kind of like that about her
Tempted to cry and scream
but sometimes silence is louder
It's her vengeance to redeem herself
Her agency and power
Identifies her prey
One and done, at least you don't suffer
She goes in for the kill
No time for second thoughts
Devours her prey
And takes exactly what she wants
She's a user and a loser
But in the past he did abuse her
A survivor, self-denier
And good at hiding every bruise
Anxious and obnoxious
It's a wonder that you love her
She ruins everything she touches
She's a fire, she consumes
She's not afraid to draw blood
I kind of like that about her

Forever for Now

Laying in bed
Mind's running wild
Will you stay with me?
Baby?
I ask, for awhile?
You reply
well, maybe
Forever for now
Lift me up, don't let me down
You can love me, but hold your ground
Forever for now
Running my hands
Through your hair
Won't you come closer?
Please?
I ask, and you answer
Give me some room,
baby
Forever for now
Lift me up, don't let me down
You can love me, but hold your ground
Forever for now
Tick-tock the clock's upon us
Didn't you want
to be my bride?
What's it mean to promise
for all the days
of your life?
Forever for now
Lift me up, don't let me down
You can love me, but hold your ground
Forever for now
Caught the light, but cut too deep
A diamond doesn't guarantee
I'll love you and you'll love me
Treat me right and then we'll see
Forever for now
Lift me up, don't let me down
You can love me, but hold your ground
Forever for now

Make Me Whole
04:42
|
|||
|
Again I've left the bed unmade
Just getting up's a win some days
Hiding 'neath the covers
Wishing this were over
Can you make me whole again?
Can you heal my soul?
Can you make my whole, my friend?
I've lost all control
Dishes piling in the sink
Reminds me I forgot to eat
Wishing this were over
Cowardice thwarts closure
Can you make me whole again?
Can you heal my soul?
Can you make my whole, my friend?
I've lost all control
Sleeping the whole day away
Dirty sheets keep grief at bay
Hiding 'neath the covers
Wishing this were over
Can you make me whole again?
Can you heal my soul?
Can you make my whole, my friend?
I've lost all control

Concrete

|
You've barely laid the foundation
The concrete hasn't yet even set
Storm rolls in
And you're back to where you started
Crumbing bricks without mortar
A lazy pile, a dirty tumbling stack
Call in the mason
And you're back to where you started (is this what you wanted?)
Running yourself in circles
So fast to stay where you are
Thinking you've gone so far
But you're back to where you started (you can't outsmart it)
One day you're born, another day you die
From the ground you came, and there you'll lie
They'll burn your bones into ash
And you're back to where you started (your future's charted)
