Sharpened words
Pointed like a stake
Seems you tried to make a
Make a quick escape
Yet still I know you're out there
Keeps me sane
Let's just try to take things day by day
Then you said in
So many words
She sat me down
Said let me be frank
I don't really like this
This sort of thing
Then I know exactly why I felt this fear
Premonitions become sickeningly clear
Then you said in
So many words
I don't really like this
This sort of thing
I don't really like this
This sort of thing
I don't really like this
This sort...
And then you said in
So many words
Yeah, you said the thing I hoped you wouldn't say
Day one, day two, day three
Day four, day five
The meaning of this information
Still undefined
It's not getting any easier
I've lost my mind
And I've lost the time
You took what you could
I'me weaved into your cruel design
Hate's a slippery slope, and slippery slopes
Get slipperier
Better watch your step, better watch your step
The trap's set
At first it was so easy
Now it's not easy
Hate's a slippery slope, and slippery slopes
Get slipperier
Take your harness off me
Remove all these bad dreams
I know
It makes perfect sense
And you said the thing I'd hope you wouldn't say
Goodbye

Dipped my fingers in the sand
I wrote some words that you'd surely understand
What I gave was not enough
And you surely couldn't call it love
How I'd like to see you cry
The sickening desire of mine
Squished between your fingertips
The smell of something burning
Still rests between your lips
And it's my only regret
Is that I didn't win
And I cannot brag
You've won
And now I'm forced to face the truth
Of why I really wanted you
You were just for show
Hold me close and whisper
Know it's almost over
Dull your tongue
Prepare your lungs
Harden your ears
Sharpen these tears
And when you left
You said you would be back soon
I said I don't think so
This is prob'ly goodbye

The Other Side

I feel you consuming me
As you take my mind
And I slip away
Becoming who you are
Not who I am
This is not okay
I remember when
I was a younger man
And I used to say
I answer to no one
Go, go, go, go
I gotta get out of here
Go
Go, go, go, go
I gotta get out of here
As you take me down with you
All the way to the other side
I can feel it in my bones
I know that you always lie
Sharpen
Your dull blades
You've got it
Got it made
When did this
Feeling numb
Why am I
Feeling dumb
You made me
Feel this way
I must do
This today
Decisions
I have found
Then when I
Sat you down
As I get up to leave
I feel as if I'm free
And I slip away
It comes back to me
This feeling of jubilee
Well this might be okay
Freedom at its best
No longer under arrest
Not another day
Fuck this
Fuck yes
Fuck this
And you too
Fuck yes
I'm getting out of here
Fuck this
And you too
Fuck yes
I'm getting out of here
As you take me down with you
All the way to the other side
I can feel it in my bones
I fucking know that you always lie

If I could explain to you
What it's like
It's not right
How I'm forced to pick and choose
Between the lines
Between the lies
'Cause it's not right
Not right...
Funny how this game that we play
All the things that we do
And all of the things that we say
What a way to waste away
Let's spend some time
In the light of day
'Cause it's not right
Not right...
Perhaps it's the way you move
Slippery like a snake
It's one of those things you do
One of your wicked ways
That I like
You do it just right
I'm cast underneath your spell
Cast to the depths of hell
Now there's no hope for me
No hope for anything
Yet I'm fine
I'm feel just fine
Perhaps it's the way you move...
Walk this way
Breathe my direction
And if you like
We can do a little dance
With the holy ghost
It's a strange room
Odd places
A strange dream
Odd faces
A strange room
What's happening here
A strange dream
Odd faces
Perhaps it's the way you move
Slippery like a snake
I don't mind
I feel fine
Perhaps...
I've come to see life in fragments
Pictures that I have juxtaposed
Into a strange collage

Knife

And I find
On this night
That I've sharpened these words like a knife
It's not right
But they're mine
And I feel them stabbing through my chest
I confess
It's for the best
That I keep them inside all my life
So I'll leave your car
You'll drive far
'Cause keeping these words sheathed is too hard
I can't help but notice
Your arms are around me
My thoughts still astound me
When your scent surrounds me
Your gaze is so fleeting
Misconstrued the meaning
I can't help but notice
I choke up my throat is
Bleeding when I don't say
Anything I felt today
I may just crave familiarity
But I can't find the clarity
This connection won't ever be severed
But we will be forever or never
And I find
On this night
That my tongue is a knife just for you
It's not right
But inside
I hope that these words are not true

In the dark, in a tunnel, in a maze
It's tough to choose a path when there's oh so many ways
What do do when you don't know what to choose
Just feel like going for a cruise but I got so much damn shit to do
In the back of a crowd I don't know what to make of this
Everyone's jumping around but I don't know what to take from this
Don't really ever sane when I'm in this place
Just wanna sit back and chill but I got so much damn time to kill
It takes a while
Before you know
So just try
For one more day
Before you go
Just try for one more day
And then you know
it takes just one more day
Everybody move
Everybody groove
Because I don't mind
I don't mind
This is a song
To soothe my restless mind
This is a song
To ease my hopeless heart

Walk Like Me

Walk like me
Talk and be
Just like me
I was successful
So obviously I'm correct
Who you are is irrelevant
I apologize if I seem
A bit direct
15-year-old off to camp
First time on his own
Think he will grow big and strong
But what he doesn't know
I can't take this anymore
I think I should go
Why do I do this to myself
Heaven only knows
Walk like me
Talk and be
Just like me
I was successful
So obviously I'm correct
Who you are is irrelevant
I apologize if I seem
A bit direct
I was a boy
And you used...
Yes, you used me like a tool
And when I...
I grew older
I felt like a fool
And you took my love
Away from me
Yes, you took it away from me
Yes, my love...
And you made me
Hate everything
Just go fucking die!
Walk like me
Talk and be
Just like me
I was successful
So obviously I'm correct
Who you are is irrelevant
I apologize if I seem
A bit direct
Fuck you
Fuck me
Fuck this I quit
I'm done
Being
Your little bitch
Go die
Right now
I don't care now
Kill
Me
Please

No I don't want your...
Love
Take your vicious way
Far away
I don't want to see them
Anymore
And I cannot explain
This constant pain
It's just that no...
I don't want your...
Love
And no one really cares anymore
That I said goodbye
Seems so trivial
So trivial
Goodbye
Take your vicious way
Far away
I don't want to see them
Anymore
And I cannot explain
This constant pain
It's just that no...
I don't want your...
Love
