comes half forgotten, my own advise I failed to follow so many times comes in the shape of a downright lie outlines the image of a well composed life another morning chases a night from sleepless presence to ruthless light i cannot pass on one stupid line can’t waste a chance to derange a sorted mind i struggle to decide i try, i try to improvise i’m tired, tired to justify that i cannot quit this undecided life waits in the silence to overturn piled up ambitions and old concerns i try to count on what i deserve still cannot shake my persistence to disturb

My Cool Self 03:14
scream out, scream out now, silence fall off of me i wasn’t blind, i just refused to see lost words in my ears try to get through to me i was impatient, rushing on ecstasy hidden in my thoughts, hidden and buried deep the fading imprints of sentences i didn’t speak i can’t explain the gaps in my memories fly superficial, crash down subconsciously eyes wide – wait for me i can’t stay, i cannot leave whatever is holding me my cool self, wait for me

Our House 03:22
hidden down an end of an old driveway, lies still, resisting trends that fly. with eyes that have been closed with red bricks, waiting for us to take out time. we drift away from one another wash up on floors with neon lights cling tight to what we once envisioned i know i can’t wait until i find the… time to start. now i won’t stop – oh. eyes wide open, i won’t stop – oh. enough! enough for our times sake rebuild lost possibilities. reclaim what has long been ours i know i can’t wait until i find the… time to start. now i won’t stop – oh. eyes wide open, i won’t stop – oh.

Monument 03:54
a dark place to discover an island in my mind through one eye or another impossible to find forgotten not forgiven mistakes come back to live dark cliffs on the horizon a monument of pride i rise minds fight still far off the distance comes slowly into sight drawn closer ever closer i can’t avoid this fight i rise minds fight
5.
No Lights 03:09
our dreams are hideous we’re easy to distrust no lights are meant for us thick lines of white dust comes from within the scene causes our restless sleep i’m ready to believe that all was meant to fail what lies in the past is never behind us a lifetime to discuss what’s lost to us one night of empty prayers a city to despair a lifetime to explain why i was meant to fail dry your eyes lights can die

an awful silence...

I Consider 04:28
i consider we’re out of time i consider we’ve lost this fight what’s in the distance will fall behind comes back in circles built to remind what is the truth of an honest life that got reduced to false compromise fall in and out of solid denial trained to ignore we’re long put in line running, run out of time chasing, chasing and hide circles twisting my mind wasting one of these fights

and it bothers me much, to think i left you behind and it bothers me much, to count the distance and it bothers me much, presenting tears, that i’ve cried and it bothers me much, silence resistance why can’t i complain, about the things that you give no time to rest, put on your lists and forced to explain, pictures and pain, that i’ve seen boarders remain, without resistance dark is the ocean, dark lying times trapped in a nutshell, lie darkest crimes and it bothers me much, to think i left you behind and it bothers me much, to count the distance and it bothers me much, presenting tears, that I’ve cried and it bothers me much, yes it bothers me much

Blind Spots 04:42
my my, tell the instincts to die while i leave my feelings behind long time in a search for tonight in my mind i lack a ticket to ride i try to hide my eyes (what i try to keep inside of me) leave all uncertainties behind (is speeding up i see, alright, it’s me alright) eyes rise to discover new odds to highlight yet another blind spot
