Senses will allow more than reason Feel me in my weakest moment And all your hazy looks touch on small reminders What never starts will never end Stay with me I’m only asking A simple word will give return Tomorrow there’s no time We are dead already We are insects Hand is only flesh Underneath the bone is never bending And in the time it takes to make our definitions We just turn them upside down and leave a different meaning Stay with me I’m only asking A simple world will give return Tomorrow there’s no time We are dead already We are insects Hold our heads under The canopies are always waiting Hold your tongue Shut up I’m tired of weighted words Hold our heads under You thought you were safe here You were wrong

Held Over 02:59
She said I’ve got a habit of shaking it off too soon Rounding up all the bottles to make this drunk last In the twilight and your starry eyes they’re staring In the twilight Up in to a makeshift sky And to wake up in a dream gets you thinking Maybe nothing is what it seems when you’re held over She said I’ve got a habit of making the day end And these shoes get heavy And it feels like dead weight In the twilight And your starry eyes they’re staring in the twilight Up into a makeshift sky And to wake up in a dream gets you thinking Maybe nothing is what it seems when you’re held over And empty bottles spread out on the floor Still dizzy Did you pay for it well And glassy eyes The two are not the same While one is sleeping the other lays awake And she said my mind is made up now And she said nothing is what it seems She said I’ve got a habit

I wonder what it’s like to be you Talking wasting everybody’s precious time What was that face in the mirror saying No I don’t remember Words I speak are easy to forget Slide on the common little numbers Subtract to make a good impression Slide on Choke down the judgment you are never wrong So busy looking outside ourselves Lie back It’s the only human way you have to answer Lay back It’s the only human way you have to answer I wonder what it’s like to be dead Acting in the only honest way we know Those two minutes in the closet changed to years of being locked up Now it’s time for breaking down the door Climb out of mommy’s little pocket Denial is your greatest weapon Slide on and on Lie back It’s the only human way you have to answer Lay back It’s the only human way you have to answer

Moving around it The issue of understanding And everytime I try it feels like it’s never ending It’s so hard to be alone with a hundred thousand people And then you ask me how I feel today Fire burns a hole outside Smothered embers help create the disguise I’m wearing It fits too well today So long to my goodbyes They never seem to make things right I guess it’s easier to run away and stay away Fire burns a hole inside not for the last time Look to your left now That’s pretty See what you’re hiding away from Grounded like the pieces you’re in Take apart then rearrange See how long to keep it going See how long to keep divided See what you’re hiding away from today And it’s so long to my goodbyes They never seem to make things right I’ll make things right

Tried to kill it Put my hopes to bed Somehow I found myself there, laying next to you instead When understanding comes the moment’s gone And in the headlight’s glare I’m frozen here upon this middle ground Same lines Make me another offer You’ve heard them all before I can’t understand you asking me to choose Just a different face, a different day I don’t need But we can’t help it The shade you bring to me Funny how the static lingers on On and on your image clings to everything This time I think I’ll change my name I touch turns into gold Cause no one recognizes a stranger My own is tarnishing But it won’t help me, and while I lose my soul Not worth a thing to me Find that I can’t be myself with you So hold the door closed Let my ghost slip through Cause in the midst of all these shadows Room is empty Same lines Make me another offer You’ve heard them all before I can’t understand you asking me to choose It’s just a different face, a different day We lose I don’t need But we can’t help it and we can’t let them go The shade you bring to me Funny how we never let them go It’s all the same We speak the same lines And all this anger turns to apathy It’s next to nothing At least not much to me The words we yet to learn and all the pages in between Each time the wound breaks open I think I’m better off alone Silent footsteps coming up to bed Change leftover or a love left said You are nothing I’ve never been Just leave me something I’ll take anything at all And all this anger leads to apathy It’s next to nothing, at least not much to me The words we’ve never learned and all the pages in between Each time the wound breaks open I think I’m better off alone I think I’m better off alone

Sail on little outlaw I see you’ve made your bed now Is it feeling good to sleep alone again Paving roads to just exclusion This island is a best friend And a rescue claims your secret hopes I bet Words of advice they give you Taken from mouths of stone I wouldn’t sacrifice my energies on houses built by wrecking balls and glass This partnership will never last us The vultures circle in the sky You will see they’ll be right here when you think you’re free And rationale means nothing when it lets our hearts retreat It doesn’t take a genius to understand what lying means That’s all I’ll say now I’m said and done Any words of wisdom you’ve got to find out on your own And you’re on your own now Our baby outlaw See how much you’ve grown Our baby outlaw Look how much you know My baby outlaw How fast can you run home How fast can you run

We were laughing Mouths open wide And as our breath fell out it seemed like I could choke inside I can’t help myself at all if changing doesn’t play a part The water rushes in and drowns me again So it follows echoes and away The sun will lead me closer to another day Hell in mind You are not the leaving kind We were moving Bodies open wide And our connected parts left me tangled up inside These waterways are useless when the tide is gone I feel mine coming in It’s coming in strong So it follows echoes and away The sun will lead me closer to another day Hell in mind You are not the leaving kind Go on now Go on don’t take me with you So it follows echoes and away The sun will lead me closer into another day Hell in mind We are all the leaving kind
