Lizard Teeth

The wind is picking up
I hear it through the walls
With every cracking sound
The fire’s dying down
There’s knocks on the window pane
There’s knocks on the ceiling, babe
But there’s no knock at my door
Cup of water by my bed
There's ripples on the surface
With every shake of ground
The big ones coming now
I'm scared of witch and wizardry
And terrible king lizard teeth
But mostly I'm just scared of being alone
Of being alone
Of being alone
I'll be a clone
I'll be a drone
Just don't leave me alone
Just don't leave me alone
Just don't leave me alone
I only ever hoped to be wanted
I never asked to be on the road and hunted
Even in my bed at night I am haunted
My enemies are winning and they flaunt it
Can’t you see how I’m exhausted?

Paradox

Pin me to the wall because nails can’t hold me here like love
I knew the truth, I knew it from the start
I tossed it out, I’d rather take the lie
I put this world in a little cardboard box
I knew it all, i was a sly fox
Pin me to the wall because nails can’t hold me here like love
I don’t know why I’d rather go insane
But i’m not the only one, and that’s the crazy thing
Pin me to the wall because nails can’t hold me here like love
You are the truth, the truth is you
You are the truth, the truth is you
Your life is death, your death is life
You bind me up to set me free
You are the truth, the truth is you
Pin me to the wall because nails can’t hold me here like love

Stucco and Silver

Another week spent up all night
Another long walk in the moonlight
Air chills my lungs and fills my nose
When will this tortured chapter finally close?
My son went missing in the night
Without a sound and without a fight
I should shout your name till I’m hoarse
Panic every second growing worse
I should shout your name till I'm hoarse
Panic every second growing worse
But I slept soundly through that night
Only waking long after light
That’s when I found your runaway note
Barometers going crazy in my throat
Seasons end but not the night
There’s no comfort in the sunlight
Search party's fading with the snow
One by one they whisper “let him go”
Search party's fading with the snow
One by one they whisper “let him go”
When you return
Don’t apologize and don’t explain
Don’t apologize and don’t explain

Is it my fault I burned my house down?
Is it my fault they threw the bricks out?
I’m not antisocial, I just need distance
But there’s no existence without assistance
Why this resistance? I just need acceptance
Is it my fault I burned my house down?
Is it my fault they threw the bricks out?
Can I turn a page and just change dimensions?
Is my Rubik's cube your solar system?
I’ll put down the puzzle, come to my senses
I watched you, oh I watched you
Tear down your house
Bit by bit
Is it my fault you built a house of straw?
Is it my fault you blind yourself to flaws?
I turn a page and just change dimensions
My Rubik's cube is your solar system
My Rubik's cube is the solar system
You and me, just you and me
We’ll build a new house
Brick by brick

Rocket Flowers

When they launched the second rocket
From the RPG, man you should have seen
The look that seized upon the pilot’s face
He had seen it all. Was this the last he’d see?
If war is just a game why can’t i learn the rules and play to win?
If fame is just a math equation what is the X factor here?
Soon the helicopter we were in
Was all but smithereens and we were floating
In a most peculiar way
Toward a sea of sand. Someone hold my hand
If war is just a game why can’t I learn the rules and play to win?
If fame is just a math equation what is the X factor here?
If we are just the tamest of the apes, then who decides the rules?
Give me a typewriter and watch me write a bunch of senselessness
These rockets blow our minds
Like poppies of death in the sky
The helicopter crash was only one
One of many in the city
One of many but the only one
That took my brother and my mother
If you find the empty rocket shell
Gleaming in the sun, won't you pick it up
Hang it out your bedroom window
Plant some poppies there. We’ll see how they fare
If war is just a game why can’t I learn the rules and play to win?
If fame is just a math equation what is the X factor here?
If we are just the tamest of the apes, then who decides the rules?
Give me a typewriter and watch me write a bunch of senselessness

Sirens in the Distance

You can take our lives
Just don’t take our guns
Don’t take my parking space
I’d rather lose the islands in a flood
It's the same old rotten apple
It's the same old crap
I don't need you spewing gossip
I don't need you breathing in my ear
I don't need you providing pictures
I don't need you providing wars
It's the same old rotten apple
It's the same old crap
We’re just pissed off teens
In our ripped up jeans
I don’t need your probing fingers
I don’t need your probing looks
I don't need you burning people
I don't need you burning books
It's the same old rotten apple
It's the same old crap
We’re just pissed off teens
In our ripped up jeans
Is the world so very different?
Will the propaganda ever change?
It’s wrapped in such a shiny package
But opened up it’s the same old
It's the same old rotten apple
It's the same old crap
It's the same old rotten apple
It's the same old crap
You can take our lives
Just don’t take our guns
Don’t take my parking space
I’d rather lose the islands––
shut your mouth

After All
03:49
|

I will not stop waiting for you
I will not stop waiting for you to come through
I will not stop waiting for you
I will not stop begging for you to come through
You’re gonna see this through
You’re gonna. How could you not see this through?
You’re gonna see this through
You’re gonna. How could you not see this through?
After all this time
It’s not enough to be beautiful
Beautiful alone is pitiful
Don’t want no truth without love,
Don’t want no love without teeth.

Make Up My Mind
04:16

Won’t you make up my mind?
Don’t you take your sweet time
Won’t you make up my mind?
Don’t you take your sweet time
The sky bends down
To tuck the sun into bed
What is there left to write
When you’ve nothing to say and everything to learn?
What is there left to ask
When nothing did you lack and nothing did you earn?
The sky bends down
To tuck the sun into bed
The moon stands up again
And rolls up her sleeves
