Alone

It's only you.
Everyone else is gone.
Faces in the fog pull you in with whispers.
Promises to reclaim what you've lost.
You're all alone.
Hazy images of lost memories drain your mind and leave you dry.
You thought you heard her voice, only echoes left over from the dream you had last night.

Burn
05:36
|
|||
|
Obsessive over your weaknesses and fears.
You haven't had a wish to make in years.
You speak to God but only in your sleep.
In your dreams you're strong but awake you're weak.
Force a flame to burn
after the oxygen's run out
and you're struggling to breathe
but you can't let it go.
Their promises weren't promises at all.
They held you up, but are glad to watch you fall
Into the dark, you're reaching out to grab what you can
may it be a blade or a hand.
Force a flame to burn
after the oxygen's run out
and you're struggling to breathe
but you can't let it go.

Collapse
03:39

The faucet's drips are timed perfectly,
it's symmetry in it's purest form.
You watch hypnotically
as the seconds become tangible.
Peel apart the pages there must be something that you didn't read.
The story will all come together.
Fill the many voids and paint a portrait of pure beauty
true perfection and sanity.
If you adjust he nozzle will time cease to pass
or will it all collapse completely
leaving nothing but a puddle in the grass.

Forget
03:56
|
|||
|
My memories are all stung together
with a line pulled through the center
tear one out and you'll remove them all.
Applaud as my world falls to pieces
but when it's gone I start to miss it.
Watch as I fade
it's what I was mad for.
When there's nothing to see
please forget me.
Me, I'm just a small regret
tear me out, you'll still have so much left.
Find the memory that will replace me
then maybe one day, you can be happy.
Watch as I fade
it's what I was mad for.
When there's nothing to see
please forget me.

Goodbye
03:34
|

|
Can you tell me once more
what was it you said
so I know that it's real
so I know that it's real
Bye, you said bye
it was real
it was real this time
Goodbye, you said bye
it was real
it was real this time
In five years I know
I know I will be better
because I will have learned so much
I will have learned so much I will have learned so much.
In five years I know
I know I will be better because I will have learned so much
I will have learned so much I will have learned so much.
Do you know how much you mattered?
Do you know how much you meant?
Do you know how much you mattered?
Do you know what you meant to me?
I'll be fine.
I will be fine.
I will be fine.
I will be fine.
