Be Still 04:29
I was well along the road to self redemption Feeling pretty good about myself Then I stopped along the way cause I lost direction Who knew you'd be there to help But my breath stops when you walk in my direction Wont you be still my heart? I was well down the road of self reflection Taking time to learn about myself But there was ons simple question That I couldn't answer you now Cause my breath stops when you walk in my direction Wont you be still my heart just this once? You could stop my hands from shakin' so violent this time And I could try to give this one more shot

Careful eyes as i cross the street of a crooked town that I used to be On summer nights where I'd try to see all the skyline of the small city Oh feigning fight, I'll try to take stance Interested in things of importance Shallow is my view, mental atrpohy Just tell me all was lost in innocence In my car, I'd wait at your school, so many days I would wait for you That parking lot now I detest and the awful feeling that it left Oh feigning fight, I'll try to take stance Interested in things of importance Shallow is my view; mental atrophy Just tell me all was lost in innocence Pillars of light in some "grand design" Tell me, how this all was supposed to align? Can I be saved, does this feel right? Well Jesus only backs me in this fight for so long

Home 04:54
"It's easier than this" I remember you told me once before The last time, well I tried but I failed Its hard enough to see what you've done to me But the end justifies the means Or so I'm told, I'm told Everyone conspires to take time to realize that There's something wrong with the place the we call our Home is justified by where my heart is; well I've had no heart At least quite some time, some time There's one small thing that I remind Myself not to lose every time My head spins round and round but there was no way To ever get it right, not today

When I said that I meant it, well I never meant that "it" would last this long Found you across a room of people that I thought I knew; how could this go wrong? So wrong. You were young and frightened rabbit, trying hard to break old habbits of hiding in your hole. I, sly and cunning fox, looking for a detox of relationship Then the fall came and ground it started to freeze and you, you came to me And all this time, I thought you were mine, but I was wrong, so now I feast I feast on you Im a horrible beast, and I want it all. No, I want it all. I've prepared for the feast, and I want it all. No, I want it all

Thinking through the alibis that you could have tried to give well surely you can try to pin the blame on someone else But you'll lie, lie your way through this one just lie, lie down right there Hold your tongue, you've nothing to say Ignorance fills a mind that wont hesitate But you're not the forgiving kind I've better places to be, try to see what you see Wherever you think I am Hell, I'll take you with me Please try, try to understand My words, they are not secondhand So we'll hold our breath and swallow our pride cause all this will be is one more night But you're not the forgiving kind, I've learned this thus far And I'm not the forgiving kind, I've tried from the start But we're not your typical kind

Over The Sea 06:58
I have this habit of wearing my heart on my sleeve Its a little ridiculous to believe But I do it so gracefully Shaking and shivered, the chattering of teeth on a cold and lonely morning where I would Look out over the sea, for you. We are who we are, we have our faults, we have our subtleties We are who we are, we have our falls; we are but human beings We have our faults, we are human beings; we have subtleties We are who we are And theres no going back now No theres no going back now We've done what we've done
