drink your heart out

straighten your face now
put your walking mask on
it feels good to ignore them doesn't it?
and fake being at peace with your thoughts
while you rot
beneath your headphones
you know the liar
has always been you
she's moving over
while you're sinking in
a barely covered up malice
that stains all you feel
the lights from your windows
match the coldness of your dreams
it has finally gotten to you
it has finally gotten in
'cause there come those evenings when
you would do anything
to get a little farther away from yourself
(to) get back all the love you gave away
give back all the love you received
while you drink your heart out
if you feel inadequate
out of place
gasping to breathe
then you'll know you feel like me
yes I always felt unreal
like this sea of concrete
which I drank to the bottom
while your image slips away
'cause there will be evenings when
you will do anything
to get a little farther away from yourself
(to) ignore all the love you gave away
forget about the love you received
while you drink your heart out

coin toss

you wake up, it's 4AM
no there was no one moving there
in the shadows
turn off the lights
(and) go back to sleep
another sunless day
another breakfast in this place
and within me the old thought growing
ever strong
once again
'cause when we dreamt
we used to dream the same
and I've always thought
that was something
that could not ever change
you swore to me
things couldn't go further low
you swore and then
the Fall
between you and me
it's easier to feel
now that you're out there
and my pain
it's a heap of random letters
that can't spell
your name
when your life
has always been
a coin toss
you let all
you've ever loved
go away on the rails
heads
tails
you've won
you've lost
coin toss

the enemy is everywhere

it could be anyone out there
it could be anyone you see
it could be anyone in this street
it could be standing near your seat
it could be some one you don't yet know
it could be some one you'll never meet
it could be anything you see
it could be everyone and everything
'cause the enemy is everywhere
the enemy is everywhere
it could be anyone at work
it could be anyone where you have lunch
it could be anyone in this pub
it could be parked next to your car
it could be anyone you know
(or) some one you don't remember the name
it could be some one that you've just met once
it could have been your best friend
from when you were young
'cause the enemy is everywhere
the enemy is everywhere
it could be anyone you love
it could be some one you despise
it could be some one you don't know that well
it could be your husband, or your wife
it could be in your family
yes it could even be in your blood
it could be running through your veins right now
yes it could even be yourself
'cause the enemy is everywhere
the enemy is everywhere
yes the enemy is everywhere
the enemy is everywhere
We know the enemy is everywhere
the enemy is everywhere

I've been here
for a long, long, long time
well I don't know
if all the things that I saw
were real,
they're a mystery I can't solve
dressed in the light of the bomb
the pyres grew
deep in the night
the smell was awful
and it ate up the cries
fires in every town
and I can dream of a time
when we'll no longer have to hide
when we'll share our thoughts and fly
out (of) the darkness of our minds
and I can see the birth of love
when we'll no longer need a god
when we won't look up in fear
at the skies over the seas
wildflowers grow
over the tomb
they run with the demons
crying all over my room
hey it's me – the last man on the moon
come share my doom

merchants of isolation
03:31
|
|||
|
drugged down souls we're ready to find you
when you're most vulnerable and alone
though we can offer no consolation
we can dumb your senses
and conceal the pain
(so here’s a parade of)
usernames and profile pictures
all claiming to feel the same way as you do
first a couple of minutes, then a couple of hours
then fall asleep and dream of empty plazas and stores
we're here to catch you
yeah don't be afraid to fall
if that's what you want
didn't they tell you never to cross
the merchants of isolation?
we like you when you are helpless
wasted crying on the floor
there's no easier way for us to get you
than bide our time and let you cage yourself
no you won't have to think about your previous life
if that helps
if that's what you want
didn't the tell you never to cross
the merchants of isolation?
don't be afraid to conform
and you won't have to feel this way anymore
(don't be afraid to conform)
no you won't have to feel any way anymore
no you won't have to feel this way anymore
no you won't have to feel any way anymore
no you won't have to feel this pain anymore
no you won't have to feel anything anymore

lose it all

Lyrics:
he has not seen
he has not seen a human face in years
his years felt countless
like waves in a deep blue sea
he'd go outside
and wander off into the city crowd
the cold glow showed hundreds at his side
that his weary eyes couldn't just find
loneliness,
the kind that keeps you awake then haunts your dreams
he dreamt of vast, deserted plains
dark voids and bottomless pits
he stood there lost
in a chaos of jingles and advertising walls
empty words floated gently above the ground
where he stood silent and couldn't make no sound
you see it's sometimes best
just to let it all subside
surrender to the rising void
with the courage
to let go, and then
then lose it all
she watered her beans
in little jars upon the balcony
hoping they would some day grow
into a giant magic stalk
and that it could lead
that it could lead her to another Earth
a world where he chose not to go
a world where he'd return to her
what is fear,
this creeping torment weighing down her frown?
and what are those rocks she's sewn into
the pockets of her favorite gown
the peer was cold
the night shrouded in November fog
but the water felt warm to her freezing soul
knowing she wouldn't see the coming dawn
you see it's sometimes best
just to let it all subside
surrender to the rising tide
with the courage
to let go, and then
then lose it all
