Inside A Break​

Inside a break there's only moments that hide
Every mistake is really worth a try
I know a way a lie can be refined
Hand me your cross and run for your life
Any good luck is a falling tree
I'm noone and no one is me
All day to call some kind of faceless guide
Someday you see is just today in a guise


Every pace you go would go without you
The busiest days there's really nothing to do
I go away to turn the dark to light
Don't look at me when you're wondering why
Hymns sound so good to him
Reflections occur within
Unwind so called holes


Language is false but it speaks to me
Places are gone when there's no one to see 'em
I got a pain that spans millions of lives
Going to where we'll dive into the sky

Any old way is a new way to be
There's just no cause for beating anybody
All of us kids we like to climb to fall
Once within there's nothing better at all
Than nowhere
nowhere
nowhere
nowhere

Emptiness



Emptiness

And now a minute is trapped
It fell into a crack
Eleven tries leading the way
and then foresight comes
I've lost my sence of it all
The feelings I can't resolve
Circumstances outside convention
And you knwo I tried
To be part of life


I found the rest of me
I was beaten on down
Emptniess set me free
I lived on a cloud
The walk through the storm
Was like a holiday
I happened to have been warned
Over and over again


The sense of speaking dissolved
Words meanings I couldn't recall
And all I'd found did my losing
I was tough to find

Playing games with my mind
Up the drops that I climbed
In the abyss I was hurled into
By who I brought back into time


I found the rest of me
I was beaten on down
Emptiness set me free
I lived on a cloud
The walk through the storm
Was like a holiday
I happened to have been warned
Over and over again

Something these days in the air
I'm afraid to sing this song
'Cuz no one answers me
Got in the way of this one chance of mine
I throw it back
It wasn't gonna last
I jumped ahead
There was a slipstream
One good feeling there
I got out quick
Lower than I go
I'm a pinball
Sticking through alot
Then down the side wall

The drop
The drop

I must have been alone
In the mean time
Nothing comes my way
I'm proud to say
I crossed a line
I said goodbye
This state to recreate
Is the drain of time
I lead you on
There were no days to wait for
No carrying on
Life's still a disease
Help it along
It's a sure thing
Everyone I meet is a laughing star

Who dropped
Who dropped


You all ought to walk through a poster
You should see how things align
Change how you see a decline
See how high you really climb

The drop
The drop

Time Goes Back


Time Goes Back

These things'll go slowly by
These things
They'll be where no one would think
And when given this life
I ought've thanked you all who will take it away
I notice that you're fine
Setting up beside wherever turns a blind eye
Any solemn phase
And you belong to two times at once
My radio's my heart
We live as one
Two ways at once
I know the waves I form
I know the way I won't become


These still places that are gone by
Belive they're somewhere else
(belive they're somebody else)
Jumping in the mind of a passerby
And being replaced like times flies
Another wasted flaw
Going up against the endless law
I'm flown through a mirror
Almost disappearing
I glow fainty
You know this is nobody's life
I saw the days I lost
Hiding behind tomorrow's costs

Time going back
Time going back
Time going back...

In Relief

​

In Relief

To seem you're in me and over me
Relief in all things
And all things shoot through me
And all things shoot through you
Wherever you are

To seem you're a dream when you never stop
And we ask you what you are
Belief as one with what you belive in
Travel slowly
Move in circles
You know time grows old in reverse


Life as a thing that began
And was magnified
And made the first fire and the last one

To mean everything you never say
Every single thing going every way
When your leader's gone
He means to make you strong
He never went away
'cause what you need you are

A Doubt



A Doubt

Everyone speaks at the same time
Everyone wonders "Who am I?"
It'd be sad to blow through time
We never go through the sky
We never know when to die

Lean in to walk
We dreamed of tonight
Lean in to walk
We dreamed of tonight
We dreamed of tonight

We all choose to live life
We confuse how with why
Everyday is lost as it goes by
These moments don't compete
And i wind up next to you
And all that i need is a doubt
That's all one that feeds the mouth
One simple means is to leave it by the door
Ah haa Ah haa

One time top lay is the time you play for
Ah haa Ah haa
And you never set a limit

Lean in to walk
Nothing missing from life
Lean in to walk
Nothing missing from life
Nothing missing from life
Oh
Lean in to walk
Nothing missing from life
Lean in to walk
We dreamed of tonight
We dreamed of tonight

And don't ever set a limit

Loss


Loss

We make the music that divides you
It's handed down as a thing to cry to
And all my wars they treat you kindly
There's nothing more important that i see
There was a time when all was empty
Unorganized a clog a death scene
Things opened up and there's so many
Paths to walk ports of entry

Now that I'm gone
Now that i'm long gone
This minute has come and gone
I never said to do anything but forget me
I can't be lost
I've learned everything form loss
For what's gained there's an inner cost
I won't pay it i never would


We left the seasons back in Long Town
There was a hint of sadness going round
We met the brothers who drove arrows
And shot assumptions wide and narrow

I know i mean what i'm forgetting
We give for everything we're getting
A lot that hasn't been put away
It's building up for that fateful someday
Now that i'm gone
Now that i'm long gone
This minute has come and gone
I never said to do anything but forget me
When it seems i'm around
Check again what's up and what's down
Any silences make a sound
before the equation i'm the answer​

Days Have Turned


Days Have Turned

The days have turned away from me
The lights no longer shine on my head
And people turn away from me
No more do they look to me with respect

Well, i know now
It's the first time
That was fun
Now from life i've resigned
When i feel i've got problems
How wrong i am
I'm awaiting life as another man
Don't crowd me

There's riddles in the shadows
They're thrown the way that i'd expect
And people never seem to know
What they least suspect is coming next

Well it seems like time's elapsed
And i've stabbed life in the back
I'm searching for what it means
To never be anything, anything

And i know now
It's the first time that was fun
Now from life i've resigned
When i feel i've got problems
How wrong i am
I'm awaiting life as another man
Hey now​

Scratches


Scratches

The scratches of a dark night
The rashes of foresight
And I wanted you

The weight of my freezing
I had come to you
The face I was given
I have no similarities to
The spaces in the law look
Like the faces in a word book
I get by
I get by

The matches of opportunities
The last thing I've never seen
And I scream it to you

The pain I was needing
Was sort of true
The one aim I was clearing
Was the walls that grew
The crazes I overlooked
The leans into the kook
And I did

And I was screaming bloody murder
I was one with pain
And I stopped by the road side
''cause this is from wehere I came

My God but it's so far away
It would seem accidents have gone straight to you
And you've changed your point of view
And the places you're going to
I get Crowded
I got crowded
And I'm so glad that you're mine
It twists up the fabric of time
And I'm useless
I'm useless

And your faces are bodies
And your hands are feet
Let me roll around
In things I can't believe
But I tried
Yes I tried
And I tried
You know I tried
