The Order

When you come, and take the order
Break my body, cling to me
Wrestle with a sleep disorder
That’s a possibility
Nothing’s right, nothing’s wrong
Oh, I’m just drifting out to sea
Couldn’t write, couldn’t walk
But the steps rolled on in front of me
If I stay within this border
Maybe I won’t fall into the sea
And If I count my steps in perfect order
Will I mitigate the misery?
Nothing’s right, nothing’s wrong
Oh, I’m just drifting out to sea
Just sit back ‘til I’m gone
Oh, I’m just drifting out to sea
Nothing’s and right and nothing’s wrong
When nothing’s right and nothing’s wrong
Nothing’s and right and nothing’s wrong
When nothing’s right and nothing’s wrong
Oh, I see. You only did this to test me.
You only did this to test me.
You only did this to test…
I see. You only did this to test me.
You only did this to test me.
You only did this to test…

Perfect Mess

There’s a way to fight it
I just don’t know what to do
There’s a way to find it
I just wanna know the truth
Don’t worry, no
Forever chase the past
For every time I lose control
I’m digging my way out of here
It slowly takes its toll
There’s a way to fight it
I know what I have to do
There’s a find it
I just know it’s not with you
Don’t worry, no
And I got tired of being afraid
To watch this perfect mess we’ve made
And I got scared of being the same
It’s time to let these memories fade
Time to let these memories fade.

Would you walk in my mind?
Would you walk in my mind?
All the things I left behind
Would you walk in my mind?
Would you follow me down?
Would you follow me down?
If there was no way around
Would you follow me down?
Will you be the last one?
Will you be the last one?
If the others turn to run
Will you be the last one?
And if the chance we would win
Couldn’t cover the head of a pin
I would still be all in for this
If you were too
If you were too
Would you walk in my mind?
Would you walk in my mind?
All the things I left behind
Would you walk in my mind?

Second Sight

You’re walking through the shadows lately
And I can’t hold my water down
Keeps pushing me beneath the surface
I want my every thought of you to drown
Did you think that I wasn’t mad?
(We wish we could…)
And in my life your touches haunt me
A headless ghost on stormy nights
It seems that nothing good will keep you from me
And so I live with ghosts and second sight
Did you think that I wasn’t mad?
Did you think that I’d fall apart?

Soft Chains

If I loved you any less would you be calling me a fool darling
Tell me what a mess I am and how I break your rules
But I’ll stay the day for now
If I loved you any less would you have held me where I stood honey
Keep me from my friends who tell me that you are no good
And I’ll stay the day with you for now
But I’ll break off these soft chains somehow
If I loved you any less would you have cried yourself to sleep saying
I just don’t appreciate all that you’ve done for me
And I’ll weigh my guilty heart for now
But I’ll break off these soft chains somehow
And I’ll stay the day with you for now
But I’ll break off these soft chains
And I’ll stay the day with you for now
But I’ll break off these soft chains
Yeah I’ll stay the day with you for now
But I’ll break off these soft chains
And I’ll weigh my guilty heart for now
But I’ll break off these soft chains somehow
Yeah I’ll stay the day with you for now
But I’ll break off these soft chains
Soft soft soft soft chains
If I loved you any less would you be calling me your fool

Words

I was young and always listening
Silent and observing truths
I’d sit in church with hands clasped tightly
Was I just a piece of you?
Higher than the hills I climbed
But I was sinking fast
In the evening of my sinning
I just needed rest
To lay my head on someone’s pillow
Let my mind envelope me
So I can hide from all you taught me
Wailing words
The Heart, The Head, The Mouth
Oh my god I know that I am
Wasted in the day...
And I guess it’s just a way of
Begging you to stay with me
Endless joys and fuck your sorrow
Fill me up with nothingness
Fill my head with awful echoes
Wailing words
The Heart, The Head, The Mouth
When I was young I always listened
Sitting in the wooden pews and
Watching how the windows glistened
Was I just a piece of you?
I was young and always listening
Silent as I saw the truth
Sitting there with hands clasped tightly
Was I just a piece of you?
Was I just a piece of you?
Was I just a piece of you?

I'll Love You

Ask the sky to will your mind
Ask the wind to keep your breath
If you stay and if your fate is certain
Then I will wait for you friend
'Cause I cannot bare to leave
You here with your unhinged mind
If I could I would take your place
I’d do anything to keep you safe
And through all that we’ve done
Through all the things between us
We’re lying to ourselves
And there’s no one here to save us
I thought you’d never feel alone
As long as you had me
But we’re sailing on our own again
And we’re praying that we’re dreaming
So I’ll love you I’ll love you I’ll love you I’ll love you
I’ll love you I’ll love you I’ll love you I’ll love you
And if it’s not forever
Then we’ll fight and we’ll fall and we’ll fight and we’ll fall
And we’ll fight and we’ll fall and we’ll fight and then…
At least we’ll fail together
So I’ll love you I’ll love you I’ll love you I’ll love you
I’ll love you I’ll love you I’ll love you I’ll love you
And when it’s not forever
Then we’ll fight and we’ll fall against all of it knowing that
when we’re gone all of the world will stop turning and…
At least we failed together
You were good, you stayed with me
I was wrong, you were perfect
And when it’s over I hope you’ll see
That I needed you but you’ve never needed me
Oh, they’ll sing about you one day
They’ll sing about you one day
They’ll sing about you one day
They’ll sing about you as I look up at the burning sky
They’ll sing, “Oooh”
