Lay beside me, cold as stone
I never even know you’re gone
Cast aside your darkest thoughts
You’re blinded by their arrogance
Kerosene
Light my way
Now I don’t even really care
If the sun was ever really there
Kerosene
Pay for answers, test your will
Well, I fail at everything you feel
Yet still you lay your hand upon that starting gun
You pull the trigger just for fun
Kerosene
Light my way
Now I don’t even really care
If the sun was ever really there
Kerosene

An End Is Near

Going out just to make them proud
And if you lived alone you’d never speak aloud
But they’ve got you in their sights
Yeah, you’re through
Oh no, you’ve gone and done it now
It’s that same mistake, you’d better learn somehow
Cause you ain’t ever gonna live this shit down
Yeah, you’re through
I wanna live in a quiet town
It’s just the soil here is so tired now
And I’m exhausted too
Yeah it’s true
We’ll slip away while the city sleeps
And make those promises you know we’ll never keep
We can never really escape anyway
Yeah it’s true
Cause the satellites, they know exactly where we go
The satellites, here they come
Wake up
Inside, well I’ve laid low enough
But they’re advancing
Yeah it’s a little late for us
Start a war and they’ll stop it now
And if you plant a dream you know they’ll cut it down
We’re already dead to them anyway
Yeah it’s true
Cause the satellites, they know exactly where we go
The satellites, here they come
Wake up

The red sun, like an ember above
Pulsing and glowing at the remains of our luck
Just don’t wake me up
In this city all made up of paper mache
The street litter, it piles up higher and higher every day
But we’ll be ok
Now you’re changing your mind like you asked for the time
And we’re flooding the sea with our needs
A friend, he once made a painful mistake
Oh lord, he’s at it again
It was a lesson that maybe just didn’t quite stick,
And a tale for the ages, I’m sure
Now you’re changing your mind like you asked for the time
And we’re trailing our feed
Now you’re changing your mind like you asked for the time
And we’re changing our needs

In The Sun
06:11
|

|
In the sun I am one with us
In a dream I was warm and warned to never let you go
So I’m hanging on
But this string won’t hold the weight of my heart
Cause you’re impossible to know
Like heaven in a jar
You’re gone without a note
Or a map to where you are
In the sun I am drunk,
Enough to let my feelings go
In a dream I was fucked,
Enough to let my demons know
That I’m hanging on
Oh I know I’m so fucked
Cause you’re impossible to know
These wounds will leave no scars
You’ve been circling so long
Like a vulture to my life

It’s been three weeks since my last confession
(You’ll wish you’d listened to me)
I’ve been making friends in higher places
(Preparation is key)
I’m planning this trip to cure my illness
(So open heaven to me)
I’ve opened up to the number seven
Seven
I’m sorry doesn’t fix a thing
We’re calling in the soul machine
In heaven I will gain your favor
I’d be everything that you need
No other could begin to claim you
They’d all remind you of me
And I hope
And I pray that you will miss me more every day
Yeah I hope that you regret this forever
I’m sorry doesn’t fix a thing
We’re calling in the soul machine
I’m sorry, but how did you not notice my endeavors?
I’m sorry doesn’t fix a thing
Well I guess I had it all wrong then
I should have known
I’m sorry doesn’t fix a thing
I’m sorry, live it up for me
I’m sorry doesn’t fix a thing
Well I guess I had it all wrong then
I should have known

Tell yourself you’re better now for what you’ve done
You are so sorry now that you see
That we don’t respect your visions now that it’s clear
We’ll shine without you
Can’t you see what we ought to be?
Medicate yourselves before you wonder how you got so tired
Follow me and seek relief, it’s all right
But we’ll do without your automated regrets
And we don’t resort to feeling unless it’s clear
We’ll shine without you
We’ll shine without you
We’ll shine
Can’t you see what we ought to be?
Medicate yourselves before you wonder how you got so tired
Cause we’ll shine without you
We’ll shine

The secret’s in the water
You know, I read somewhere our dying days were meant for this
In a post card or a letter
Addressed to everyone whose dying days were meant for this
A catatonic savior dreams while it’s said he’s got nothing to offer
The cytosine resistance breeds with the congressman’s only daughter
Well don’t explain it, don’t intrigue them now
May the cursed choke on their own rotten luck
A failure on a doorstep
A kid so sick, you’d never comfort him, you never could
Well I wish I was an angel
I’d disappear before I ever felt this torn again
A catatonic savior sleeps as it’s said he’s got nothing to offer
The cytosine resistance bleeds as the fields go up in the slaughter
Well don’t explain it, don’t intrigue them now
The shortest straw will make everything right
Don’t explain it, don’t intrigue them now
Turn out the lights before you say goodnight

Isolate Me
04:33
|
|||
|
They knew it was all or nothing
And we came too far all for nothing
When you sell your soul for its weight in gold, you let me know
When you sell your soul for its weight in gold you let me know
Isolate me, isolate the soul
Isolate me, isolate the sun
They knew, and we knew
That we’ve come too far to lose
When you sell your soul for its weight in gold you let me know
When you sell your soul for its weight in gold you let me know
Isolate me, isolate the soul
Isolate me, isolate the sun

Well you said hello, I wanna die
I’m a calling card in the hands of time
I’m alone at heart, yet not quite trying
To make up for it in love
Well I’ve said too much
I said too much
Here I am all alone again
And oh, where are you?
Well I’m right here where you left me
So just take my hand, enlist my help
I will take you there to regain your health
I’ve been wandering far too long
Waiting for your arms to welcome me
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I said too much
Well I’ve said enough now, I can’t take this compromise
I said too much
Well I’ve said enough now
I’ve been promising myself

Everyone Loves Their Gun
04:21
|
|||
|
We started too revealing
We’d settle for a nod
All those pictures on the ceiling
Unashamed of who we are
We’ll fight upon a feeling
And suffer thru your gods
Everyone loves the ocean
Everyone loves their gun
And we love what we do
Though we are lost
We love what we do
Yeah, it’s our silent revolution
So we searched for deeper meaning
Yeah, we picked apart the plot
But those pictures were misleading
Now we’re not sure who we are
We’ll fight upon a feeling
And suffer thru your gods
Everyone loves the ocean
Everyone loves their gun

This is the sound of a single cell
An orphan caught in an avalanche
When I can’t you again
I can’t hear you
But what we really want to know
Is how you live in silence
When I only want to hear you break my heart
This is the moment of atrophy, a song unsung
While I’m screaming out my lungs
This is the lesson I meant to teach
But I can’t say that now that I’m sending all my love over to you
So what we really want to know
Is how you live in silence
Well I don’t even miss you
I only want to kill you
And I would
I don’t even want you anymore, I only want to kill you
|

I’ll see you again
I’ll see you again
But I won’t say hello
I’ll see you
I’ll see you again
I’ll sing for you
Sing loud and strong
I’ll see you again
I’ll see you
I’ll see you again
