Fire Escape

Skin on a white mattress, a cigarette-scented dress
I’ve got words to say but not a single one does me any good
A tree like a broken arm, apologies lose their charm
Either way you plant it once and don’t come back until it’s grown
(you feel yourself/slipping away
concrete waves/the sound decays
the lie you tell/ yourself is true
in my dreams/ I’m chasing you)
Who in the hell do you think that you’re losing, been here all night and you’re still not choosing where you, where you’re sleeping tonight
If you want someone better I know it’s confusing, lost and misguided you’re still not choosing where you, where you’re sleeping tonight
A match in a pitch-black room, the call that you’re leaving soon
Rewrite history and burn the tapes so we won’t know what went wrong
Rainwater painted drapes, one hand on a fire escape
Where the whole world’s screaming jump but tonight you keep on holding tight
(you feel yourself/slipping away
concrete waves/the sound decays
the lie you tell/ yourself is true
in my dreams/ I’m chasing you)
Who in the hell do you think that you’re losing, been here all night and you’re still not choosing where you, where you’re sleeping tonight
If you want someone better I know it’s confusing, lost and misguided you’re still not choosing where you, where you’re sleeping tonight
(The whole world’s screaming jump but tonight you keep on holding tight/
this isn’t real, why won’t you wake me, if you’re leaving won’t you take me home?)

Downfall
04:36
|
|

When patterns burst around my neck
It won’t be hard to say
All the time we wasted
Was it better off this way?
A hand held pressed against my chest
The mark she left has since gone cold
All the times we spent watching
The scenes just grew old
How does it feel to treat a wound that’ll never heal?
You call this a downfall but I don’t
And I can’t and I won’t
No invitations needed here
We’ll show up unannounced
All the light that I stole
We’ve been tricked into thinking we dug ourselves a deeper hole
But I don’t know how does it feel to live a life that isn’t real?
You call this a downfall but I don’t
And I can’t and I won’t
Can’t we always realize
That our love is non-existant
You call this a downfall but I don’t
And I can’t and I won’t

Polarize
04:25

|

You couldn’t handle all the innocence
But I could never tell the difference
Let’s just blow this off and forget every word I said
I can’t see where this is going but you can call it a bloodletting
A sacrifice, a trial by fire
Burning faster than a cheap book of a matches
That we’ve seen before
So go ahead, write it off as a tragedy
Your hazel eyes make it hard to see
Polarize what hurts inside don’t let me change your mind
I can’t see where this is going but you can call it a bloodletting
A sacrifice, a trial by fire
Burning faster than a cheap book of a matches
I can’t see where this is going but you can call it a bloodletting
A sacrifice, a trial by fire
Burning faster than a cheap book of a matches
‘Cause I’m not the one you tell your secrets and I’m not the one you’re keeping here
And I’m not the one you cry in your hands about
I’m not the one you hold in the dark and I’m not the one there to make a spark
I’m just the one you never gave a chance

Catalyst

Everything falls into place, just like it’s supposed to
Perfection is easily erased and fades back to the start
Thin walls and thin lies don’t do much to quiet your breathing
Keep writing me letters so I’ll have something to tear apart
Don’t say you’ve already forgotten the reason I called you
When I’m cold and alone and I want you here, you’re never home
Close enough isn’t close enough
Did you tell everyone that you thought you saw God looking back in the mirror
When you tore out your heart did it start to make things seem a little bit clearer
When the writings on my wrist put pieces together in your world
Will you blame it all on nerves
Impulses lead to temptation that’s where it all started
My hair stands on end as your fingers keep gripping my neck
Alone at first light expectations they seem so unsettling
My thoughts are the catalyst, jealousy spills down my throat
Everything you’ve ever wanted fell straight through the floorboards
When it’s all over we’ll build back the towers we had
Close enough isn’t close enough
Did you tell everyone that you thought you saw God looking back in the mirror
When you tore out your heart did it start to make things seem a little bit clearer
When the writings on my wrist put pieces together in your world
Will you blame it all on nerves

Familiar Shapes
05:09

First things first lets face it, you pulled a nerve
Call it off, we’ll fall, you just say the word
Fall into familiar shapes
All we needed then was a little faith
Crawling back to where we know we’re safe
Fall into familiar shapes
Our shadows danced in candlelight chasing off the cold
The rules we knew, we never took one word of advice and it showed
You’ve got more options I’ve got nothing left to lose
There’s only a single answer I always choose
Fall into familiar shapes
The look you give when the three pieces finally meet
A blast of air so cold that it hurts your teeth
Fall into familiar shapes
