The Perfect Crime
02:31
|
|||
|
Hey believer, where's the river? "Better late than never" doesn't get you into heaven. So which direction to resurrection? I don't have the attention span but I could use a backup plan. Alright.
Hey there fighter, aren't you tired? You're bleeding out for everything, you're making it into routine. But oh I get it, it's so romantic. Life among opinions, feeling safe but know it isn't. Alright.
Tried to buy a little time, tried to make the most of mine. I've been burning out of me. Tried to pull the perfect crime but I ended up in line. I've been burning out of me.
Yeah I've been burning out of me.

Pull on my thread, I'll unwind, turn to shreds. I've been stuck for a second, getting longer if you let it. Trip on my strings, tried to chew through everything. I've been stuck for a second, getting longer if you let it.

Fool In The Mirror
01:47
|
|||
|
Have you found yourself today or do you need another minute? Couldn't find the words to say that all of this is counterfeited.
There's a fool staring back at me in the mirror. He looks familiar.
Stitched together vague impressions, left something to be desired. Couldn't fix the blank expression, missing pieces still required.

Invisible Thing
01:34
|
|||
|
Take a deep breath, I'm oh so heavenly. Bring me the heads of all my enemies.
Invisible thing wrapped around me. Invisible thing.
Egoist threat, it's so conventional. Cynical death, please be preventable.
Invisible thing wrapped around me. Invisible thing. Predictable sting pressing on me. Invisible thing.

Easy-Go-Round
02:39
|
|||
|
Chasing every bit of advice got you someplace foul. Picking every single fight got you feeling down.
And they say easy come, easy go round...
Guess we all got so hung up on some big dream shit. Can't keep it together with rusted safety pins.
And they say easy come, easy go round...
I'll see you around some day. "I'll see you around," at least that's what they say.
And they say easy come, easy go round...

See The Bottom
02:46
|
|||
|
There's a dirtbag in a band t-shirt staring right through me. Listen closely to the magic words, they'll make you into something.
Cuz it's the same old circle, it's the same old circle again. You can see the bottom but you still just dive right in.
Dancing our way right through those gates, smile and nod along. In the end there'll be plenty of blame. Swallow it up and move on.
Cuz it's the same old circle, it's the same old circle again. You can see the bottom but you still just dive right in.

Kitchen Sink
01:29
|
|||
|
Staring down the kitchen sink. Filthy water, I might take a drink.
Sick demands go hand in hand with best laid plans. Going down the drain again.
Crystal ball, shattered glass. Cut my feet while I'm running past.

Right As Rain
01:20
|
|||
|
Something's caught inside my throat. Lost my voice now I might choke. "Sign right here, we'll have you on your way."
Doctor, there's a tiny shard traveling down to my heart. "Sign right here and you'll be right as rain."
Entered with a simple ache, please just make it go away. "I think that we've got just the cure, let me check your paperwork."
"Sign right here and you'll be right as rain."

I can't keep this wicked pace. I was too far gone yesterday. But a guess is good as heaven while we wait.
Life is the slowest blade. We like our wreckage on display. But a guess is good as heaven while we wait.

Perpetual Motion
02:41
|
|||
|
Took a walk through the flowers, pressed my hands to the thorns. Let the day get devoured, can't say that I wasn't warned.
But you caught me digging my heel again. But you caught me spinning my wheels instead.
I guess we're always in a hurry. I guess that is, until we're not...
Caught in perpetual motion, suppose it's more like a fall. Been leaving every door open but walking into the wall.
But you caught me digging my heel again. But you caught me spinning my wheels instead.

Bad Advice
01:36
|
|||
|
Be yourself. Don't be shy, but try to sell your better side. Never miss a single chance to make a wish at someone's expense.
Why think twice when you've got bad advice?
Stay the course, double down. Check your source but don't back out. Just say it loud with confidence. Decent crowd makes good defense.

Don't leave me on the line, I'm hanging out to dry. Don't leave me in the sun, I'm burning up. I'm dying on the vine, I'm hanging out to dry.
Faded, tasteless. Wasted every second guessing. Pressing my face to the ground.
Don't leave me on the line, I'm hanging out to dry.

Spending precious Sunday evenings dreading what the next day's bringing. Shoplifted moments, stolen but broken. Ignoring the price but it's there.
Lemon lime so sharp that it cuts right through. Clear my crowded mind, take me straight to you.
Separated mind from body meditating in the lobby of a DMV, waiting for life to start living. Ignoring the price but it's there.
Lemon lime so sharp that it cuts right through. Clear my crowded mind, take me straight to you.
Nonsensory overload, got a bit too clever. Theoretically high threshold, but never say never.

Revolving Door
03:12
|
|||
|
Take a look at all this wasted vision. I'm just another headless, aimless one. Just about been twisted to submission, I don't mind it when it's done. Don't forget to empty out my pockets and pull me through another crowded storm. I thought that I was on my way to something, they said, "man, you're barely warm."
Can't you see that everything repeats?
But I don't wanna go around. Revolving door. I can hardly see the ground. Revolving Door. I don't wanna go around. Can't take anymore revolving door.
Take a look at all this wasted friction. I'm just another headless, aimless son. I can make a mess with such precision but I mostly try to run. Don't forget to charge me for the process. Let me drift away before I'm spent. Everybody's betting on a bad guess but it's not gonna make a dent.
Don't it seem like everything repeats? But it's a trick that always works on me. You can't get off, you can't go back, seems like we're going nowhere fast. But all those days seen through the glass, no they aren't ever coming back.

Weatherman Got It Wrong
01:37
|
|||
|
Oh weatherman got it wrong. Called for a storm that's been here for so long. I keep my head in the sky, waiting for rain when I've never been dry.
I'd step out of my mind if I could. If I could step out of my body I would too. Imitation of life, too good to be true.
Palm reader might have blown it. Crossed out the lines that didn't quite fit. Somebody spoiled the end. I don't have the same attention span.

So Underneath
01:39
|
|||
|
Got a case of tunnel vision when I'm so underneath. Laser-focused indecision when I'm so underneath.
Technicolor happy place. Just give a little bit. Throw it back into your face. Don't take a lot of it. Hold me close in your embrace but I'm still unconvinced when I'm so underneath.
Hanging out over my shoulder when I'm so underneath. Little cold but getting colder when I'm so underneath.

Firecracker
03:00
|
|||
|
Just past midnight I feel preoccupied at the moment when one day blurs into another. Like a tangerine, seeds stuck in my teeth at the notion of one way or any other.
I got a firecracker burning through the back of my mind. My mind's tripwire, makes me so tired all the time. Time keeps slipping by in the blink of an eye.
Bloodshot tv screens practice what they preach. Drowning you out every chance they get. Just a sugar high, endorphin reply. Shouting you down, stealing all your minutes.

Passing Ways
02:43
|
|||
|
Can't you tell there is something in the air? Cracks my cells into something else, I swear. All my doubts follow me until the end. Hear my shouts getting quieter again.
Everybody is someone else in passing ways and passing self. Everybody is someone else some days. Hey, we're just passing ways.
I'm undone, telling myself I'm the same. Missed the sun but not like I missed the rain. Cannonball crashing through my goddamn head. Let it fall, let it drag me down instead.

Disappear
02:25
|
|||
|
Never really learned how to read all the notes, never found a masterpiece in my throat. Feels like I'm always waiting just to arrive, guess I've never really been good with time.
I got broken keys, broken car, broken head. Tried to fix it all but I broke it instead. Let me see the end if there even is one. Tried to skip ahead but I never got done.
I'm not really here. I'm not really here at all. I could disappear. I'm not really here at all.

In My Dreams
02:42
|
|||
|
When I open up my eyes I see pale blue. It rips right through my head, it pulls me from you.
But in my dreams I can see everything. In my dreams it all seems so easy.
We're headed straight for power lines, going way too fast. We felt electric in the light but it doesn't last.

It's Coming Around
02:35
|
|||
|
Outside the sky is falling, seems just like a dream. I feel the moment stalling like some broken machine.
I've been waiting on the thunder. I saw the light but I heard no sound. I've been waiting on the thunder. It's coming around.
My scenery is splitting, tearing my vision. I see the paint is dripping, toxic to my skin.

Wind Me Up
02:15
|
|||
|
Maybe I got twisted up in daydreams. I got twisted but you release me every time.
Because it doesn't take much just to wind me up. No, it doesn't take much at all.
Slowly, I've been grinding through my teeth. I've been finding something bittersweet but it's alright.

Bright Lights
02:43
|
|||
|
I saw a long dark hall inside my head, it made me feel sick. Goddamn we take this for granted, it's a shame but we can't help it.
Time don't slow but I might. The walls close in too tight. I guess those big bright lights, they never did quite turn out right.
I've been holding my breath for as long as I remember. She said it's not so bad, I guess I'm inclined to believe her.
Time don't slow but I might. The walls close in too tight. I guess those big bright lights, they never did quite turn out right.

Accelerate
02:06
|
|||
|
Feel the distance closing fast, I watch the pavement flying by. Nothing's ever built to last, we're chasing heaven before we die.
I'm spinning out, I can't slow down. I try to hit the brakes, I accelerate.
Lights colliding with the glass, I caught the future in your eye. Felt something that made an impact, just a glance could save my life.
I'm spinning out, I can't slow down. I try to hit the brakes, I accelerate.
