I’ve been running scared for such a long time
Trying to make it on my own
If you’d like a small piece of my time
Then fire, fire, fire me up
If you wanted me to call, you should have told me
You think you’re gonna catch me, so
You might as well just drop this whole thing
Or fire, fire, fire me up
My life’s a fable, you know
I’m more than able to show
The side I’m hiding from you
But I’ve been running scared for such a long time
Trying to make it on my own
If you’re trying to make a point, I can tell you, I...
I know.
I know.

Woke in a cold sweat, things have changed
Can’t seem to thaw out, nothing feels the same
I used to think that I was blessed, now here I am under duress
I can’t get out--out of this house. Is this just a dream?
All this time I’ve slept alone
You talk about me like I’m not at home
Captivated when you call
Guess I missed those old jokes after all
Can’t comprehend the time that’s passed, feel like my bones are plexiglass
I cannot be forgotten, no this has to be a dream
All this time I’ve slept alone
You talk about me like I’m not at home
If you figured me out, then you’ve got this
If I once had some hope, then I’ve lost it

Four Choices

Lay down with me
I’ve reconsidered all my wrongs
Lay down with me
Keep me close because I’ve been so cold
I can’t wait for no one to come and take my breath a...
Way back when we
Always took the backroads home
Way back when we
Thought that we could make it on our own
I can’t wait for no one to come and take my breathe a (way)
I tried to walk to the edge of the world
To make a deal with the sun before.
I tried to walk to the edge of the world.

It's About Time

When you started packing I knew
You and I were headed south
And since we’re no longer talking
I’ve been rotting away from inside out
And now these cold walls surround me
And I can’t open up my mouth
I’ll be right where you left me
But it’s about time
(That we got back to the simple)
It’s about time
(Times)
We had it once, we could have it again
I let you inside where the heat settles in
But you don’t know...
I couldn’t possibly think so
But you, you sometimes come to my door
I wait--I’m always hoping for more
Inaudible distress call to you--
I can’t get through
When you started packing I knew
You and I were headed south
And since we’re no longer talking
I’ve been rotting away from inside out
And now these cold walls surround me
I still can’t open up my mouth
I’ll be right where you left me...standing

Tell me what you need and I can keep it safe and cool for you
The time you seem to waste: op’ning me up, forgetting to follow it through
It’s only half past 12, so tell me why did everybody go home?
Nevermind, that’s great, I’m just relieved that we’re finally alone
You see the problem is that when you’re gone
You leave a footprint on my heart where you stepped
Now it’s worse since you left, and you’re gone
I’ve got a problem, baby, and the problem may be you
I’m staring at a wall collecting dust and things that I’ve got to say
The things we want in life all seem to wander off in opposite ways
So are you coming back? I only ask because you’ve been gone so long
It seems like it’s a no, but I’ll still wait on you to prove me wrong
You see the problem is that when you’re gone
You leave my light turned off and a cold in my chest
I’m just a statue at best when you’re gone
I’ve got a problem, baby, and the problem may be you
Oh girl, if you ever come back, I’ll try to be better me
Oh girl, if you never come back, this pain will get the best of me
It’s really tough to mention
I can’t relieve this tension

Rotting, I think I’m rotting
My blood is clotting
And oxidizing more
Like when a metal
Begins to bevel
And falls apart
I’m living alone and I’m living in fear
Is it cold outside? ‘cause it’s freezing in here
Sinking, oh I am sinking
The house is falling
It’s falling down with me
I hear our machine
When you are calling
Here all the time
I was happy at first, now the calls only hurt
I’ve been wanting to sleep and you’re making it worse

Holding Ground

I didn’t think I could yell any louder
I didn’t think that I could hold my ground
I tried to pull up all the strength I could muster
Seems pretty simple next what I’m facing now
Ready yourself, my friend
Now she’s roaming your thoughts again
Steady yourself, my friend
See her smile while the walls spin
We used to be this way
‘Till I can hear you say it’s gone and I am cold as ice
We used to sing like this
Now you’re gone I’m just missing
Gone and I’m as cold as ice
I didn’t think I could stand any taller
I didn’t think that I could hold my own
I tried to pull up all the strength I could muster
Seems pretty simple next to what I’m facing now
Ready yourself, my friend
Now she’s roaming your thoughts again
Steady yourself, my friend
See her smile while the walls spin
We used to be this way
‘Till I can say hear you it’s gone and I am cold as ice
We used to sing like this
Now you’re gone I’m just missing
Gone and I’m as cold as ice
It's easy to forget
But I won't give up yet

It started when you came back with my friend
It’s hard to reduce from the way that I’ve been
I finally start to realize you’re gold
He’s got that look there in his eyes, you’re sold
Holy shit this is awesome
See you happy again
You’re back again, you’re moving in
You’re not with me, but with a friend
Is this the way this has to be?
The only way you’ll be near me
Did I hear him clear? He’s up to something.
Not as he appears, he’s not as he seems.
It turns out he is just as bad as I was.
Disregard his sorry eyes because...
You will soon be forgotten
Just get out while you can
You’re back again, he’s pulled you in
You’re not with me, but with a friend
He’ll treat you right, for just a night
Enjoy the sight, I’ll be alright

I haven’t slept a wink since you walked out the door
And I don’t lose my cool much like that anymore
But since you walked away, it’s hard to say how I’ve been
Since you walked away, it’s hard to say how I’ve been
It’s hard to say ‘cause I’m living the same routine again
When you’re walking by every day, every minute
It’s clear to see how I got so lost this far in it
But since you walked away, it’s hard to say how I’ve been
Since you walked away, it’s hard to say how I’ve been
Oh, this love is making me sick
Everything he does is a stupid mind trick
Please, don’t try to fake it
You know he deserves it

(Can’t take any more
My internal war)
Done living a lie, if I must die I’m taking him along with me
Planning this out for some time.
You will be somewhere else, he’ll be by himself or maybe just alone with me
Waiting for my time to strike
It’s over, over and
Over, over and out
(Can’t take any more
My internal war)
I’m waiting alone, your guy comes home and he’s with someone secretly
Finally I know it’s my time.
He comes over to me, I hear someone scream and I collapse onto my knees
I find myself feeling fine.
It’s over, over and
Over, over and out
Over and out
It’s over, I’m out and..
