Nosebleeds
02:42
|
|||
|
Healing movements
Passing through me
Nosebleeds slowly
You're my only friend
Nosebleeds slowly
Forming bodies
Out there floating
With my only friend
Seated so far
So far away
Seated so far
I see a stage

Conscious
04:43
|
|||
|
Resting pools
Deep and warm
Small vessels
Carried home
Comforter
In a dream
Stare at me
Weak in the knees
Consciousness like
Water dripping
Quenching the thirst
For a deeper meaning
When the fringe
Becomes the whole
New fringes
Naturally form
Consciousness like
Water dripping
Quenching the thirst
For a deeper meaning

Convoy
03:50
|
|||
|
Looked above you
Saw a train falling
The payload measured
In love
You will always know
When I am with you
And when you're alone
Pressure building
Foundations are deep
Liquid courage
Blowing off as steam
You will always know
When I am with you
But you're on your own
You're a convoy
Filled with moving parts
Twisting slowly
In the sky

Timelessness
03:49
|
|||
|
Left on the pavement
And smiling to myself
I'm in a dreamworld
Without a talisman
You're not a fighter
Though you always wanted to be
Can't find it in you
Despite the glory
Striving for timelessness
The body will stop healing itself
I'm swinging softly
Into your open heart
I won you quietly
We laid down for each other
Striving for timelessness
The body will stop healing itself

Martyr
04:42
|
|||
|
Strapped into
The new zeitgeist
Like a bodysuit
All you do
The words you choose
They lead like clues
To show that you
Want to be
A martyr
Lifted up for all to see
You as a hero
You can finally be complete
All my life
I use as a sign
A signal fire
To show that I
Despise my right
To stand and fight
To show that I
Want to be
A martyr
Lift me up for all to see
Me as a hero
Even if I don't believe
|

Severed
03:47
|
|||
|
Mark your body
With the signs
That best represent you
Then no one will wonder
You perform under pressure
Avoiding the eyes
You never fail
Shallow thoughts and
Shallow eyes
Shallow hearts and minds
Drink
And hold it in your hand
Forget that you got it
Then lift it to your tongue
The flow
Of everything is routed
Down into your soul
But you can't feel it
It passed you by
Shallow thoughts and
Shallow eyes
Shallow hearts and minds
Disregard the
Warning signs
Severed from the line

Crashing Sound
05:13
|
|||
|
All of you
Have so much faith in me
I won't let you down
All I've done
Up to this point in life
Was leading me here
I know
I know it hurts
It feels wrong
But you ignore it
Well enough
For a while
The crashing sound
Once in the distance
Is louder now
And you must decide
I know
I know it hurts
I know it hurts

Lonesomeness
03:13
|
|||
|
Cheek bones
Surface
Then disappear
Angel faces
smiling down to me
Love flows steady
Just down stream
Warming
Blank stare
Melting my fears
Lonesomeness
Quiet and loyal friend
Love flows steady
Just down stream
For those who deserve it
And no one else
