In This State

I didn't know that you wanted in.
You touched me this is where it began.
What's next you don't give me leads,
So I just go to sleep.
Sleeps the closest thing to being dead.
Dreams are the fantasies in our head.
Sleep is when you can't make mistakes.
Dreams are when you wish life was fake.
I never wanted you to see me in this state,
Its' just the way we relate.
Please, please, please just take into account what I've kept.
Don't leave me lying here on my back with nothing left.
Sleeps the closest thing to being dead.
Dreams are the fantasies in our head.
Sleep is when you can't make mistakes.
Dreams are when you wish life was fake.

Give Me Your Heart
03:14

You took the time, all I want is your heart.
I gave you mine, its only right we both take part.
So many times I sulk in my room alone.
Drink the cup of wine.
But then you, you come through.
And I want to pick you up and drive down the 5.
Until our hands turn to glue.
Lifelines die but come back so bright.
Give me your heart and we'll be alright.
Give me your heart and we'll be alright.
You've seen the portraits now and what I portray.
Does it make your heart beat twice or do you just keep moving away.
Tell me now, like Daniel said or better yet don't play with my head.
I've got emotions hiding inside, they'd come out if with a heart to reside.
GIve me your heart and we'll be alright.
GIve me your heart and we'll be alright.

Let the liquid hit my lips
Let my motivation quit
Let my feelings spill on out
The ones I don't like to talk about
We get together almost every
We get together almost every
We get together almost every day
I don't like the way my voice sounds
I don't like when you drop me to the ground
Wake up in the morning and you're still with me
I'm about to put you out
I'm about to put you out
We get together almost every
We get together almost every
We get together almost every day

Alive/thriving
05:32
|

You call me and I don't want to answer, what does that make me
I don't want to know what you have got to say about me
If only you could see on the other side of me is a cup of cheap whiskey
Why am I alive, why am i thriving?
I'm 23 now but I'm a bigger failure than when I was 18
Those were the days when I could meet a mom and get shots poured for me.
But now I'm wiser so they say, too bad I'm making the same mistakes.
I don't want to walk downstairs to walk into everybody's stares.
I laugh it off and try to act like I am over it, it's just that I never wanted to leave.
But I've dug a hole and it feels like I will never get out, but that's ok with me.
Because maybe it's misery that makes me move on and turn a brand new leaf.

Reach Out
02:37
|

I don't always know what's best for both of us.
I don't always show that I've learned so much.
I wish what you thought of me was true.
I wish I could be myself in front of you.
More responsibility, less time for me.
I've got to grow up, and I've got to show up.
Prepare to look you in the eyes.
I was never ready for this.
I want to make you proud, at what cost to me.
Be honest is happiness what you really see?
If so I want to be on your side.
If so I want your peace of mind.

The Rink

I don't want to wait up for you, just come meet me at the rink.
We can stay up, we can lace up, we can break in, in the night.
So long as you're there, we can skate here.
Oh baby baby baby baby
I am lying on the center floor, won't you come lift me up.
I am lying on the center floor, won't you come lift me up.
Every day is the same I don't need anybody new.
I am rolling back, my eyes they stare straight into you.
If you fall I won't wait, I will be at your aid.
Give me your hand girl and we'll just fade away.
I am lying on the center floor, won't you come lift me up.
I am lying on the center floor, won't you come lift me up.
Now we're together until the end.
Or until the lights go out.
That's when he shows up, and we must grow up.
All our fantasies will die tonight.
I am lying on the center floor, won't you come lift me up.
I am dying on the center floor, won't you come lift me up.

Snake Woman
02:53

Low cut your back was showing, skin smooth your face was glowing.
You touched my hand to slow dance. I pretend this is romance.
You want to fool me and survey my passing.
It's not my eyes it's not everlasting.
Red lights give your lips a new hue.
Do you feel, or is the devil inside you?
What do you want from me.
Isn't it enough that you see I'm in pain.
Isn't it enough you're always running around,
With someone new
Who do you want
Who do you see
Who do you want to be
It's not a woman I see

Fade Into You
05:29
|
|||
I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take a breath that's true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth
You live your life
You go in shadows
You'll come apart and you'll go blind
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with what's not there.
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
A stranger's light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then smiles cover your heart
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
I think it's strange you never knew

Weekend
02:15
|

Finally away from home
Away from everything I've sewn
Weekend crews feel long and lost
That's called replacement cost
Twist my head feel my neck sink in
As I struggle to try and swim
The sun burns on my flesh
See you, wish I spoke your language
Dark skin, your eyes are darker still
Want to take you and makes this real
You clean house while I degrade myself
Stare you down while I pull the Blend from the shelf
I write a song of sentiment just to feel affectionate
I'd never have the chance these words are all irrelevant
These words are all irrelevant

I can stand in the mirror, now I can stand myself
It took a couple weeks and I got a lot of help
So what if I'm learning to like myself
I need to change my point of view and I want to be like you
Broken dreams and wasted nights
Don't need to the be the end of a life we like
I can drown myself in friends I cherish
They'll bring me happiness and back to the surface
We're all plagued with problems of our own
But what use is a garden that doesn't grow
Give me love, the things to survive
I'll be ok, I might even thrive

Wall
05:44

I never knew you, but I want to feel you.
White shoes white carpet, the wine is a target.
I talk to you, you just hold yourself. Are you ok?
Candle burns you remain so frozen,
You watch me become myself.
Black socks your hair is black and somber, one more sip and once again I'm in a slumber.
You could rely on me to fail you, I would deny everything that makes me want you.
You talk to me, I put myself against the wall. Don't let it come down.
I want you to want me.
I want you to let me in.
