This Before Choking

i'm pacing the dark room
and all i have now
is the look upon your face
a wink to whisper, No.
and we never knew
we should feel
ah, we should feel
for the blaming
the fights
the silence
the shards of us
breaking
and all i have now
is the look upon your face
when you tell me its you.
(chorus)
and i want to matter
can you undo what you've done
so if this is what you want
come close, come closer.
the cuts we remember
the one's no one ever knows
a flame of touching
holds the price of souls
and i may never know
cuz all i have now
is the look upon your face
and i want to matter
so if this is what you want
keep close, ah keep close.

follow along curve
a shunning, a false woe
tearing like she knows
could it be
that you wish you could speak
or will it be that you won't
(Chorus)
for i been, and i ain't
so the telling will not survive
oh, it seems right
for you don't have to want me too
as if night remembers
yes, you know your men
and what they never were
they told you its yours
as if they could not fathom
you were right.
and it won't be that way
for us is forever songs
and rapture is so far gone
for my night
for i been, and i ain't
so the telling will not survive
oh, oh you love
but you don't have to
for i will remember
that first night

St. Ann

Look at the other side of it all
what does she mean
when she says I'm all she needs
for I've been less than whole
and she carries a bag full of holes
we wonder,
how do you protect
a gesture of sincere
for all you have is a tape
a few loose sheets
save me, save me
(Chorus)
for maybe its easy
this time
she was a twelve
blew a kiss
from the other side
and maybe she wished for you
before you were born
for you see her
you remember what its like to breathe
and you don't realize
that i conjure all my troubles
to way lay them aside
for the prayers left
inside your eyes

This is what waiting feels like
a push against strong wind
i've been seeing myself
in fall leaves
and one of us
might not make it
much longer
and some of us
may never know
just when the light goes
for the awful quiet
(Chorus)
let me take your hand
and say with all my might
i could die tonight.
and i've been placing all this blame
on empty nights
toasting cups of lies
wondering if this is my life
but too shook to ask why
morning now and i made it
so the sky holds blood
against its bottom rim
and the ground forgives
the calling of its name in vain
i grab your hand to say again
i could die tonight
holding on to you
holding on my love

at a time now

Maybe you scared
and have been for a time now
they tell you it be alright
the years peel away
and truth frays
a million dead boys
500 responsible
this is the modern my friends
have let them
take the tiny cuts
hush the voice in us
placate the soul's debate
for fear is their weapon.
(Chorus)
how does matter
that we are failing
oh, complicit in your own suicide
for the voices marching on
this is the modern my friends.

Some, A Kin To

Can i go
to the north shore
and will myself to be
more than just me
past his name
of that face he gave
and will myself to be
more than a mirror
of how he failed you.
can i make my way
my own love
my own hate
let me tell you of my scars
from a time that he held you
so fleeting
and you want the magic
of a do over
a do over
don't deny it
don't deny
for regret is akin to suicide
but time is a curse served cold
in a womb without your name.

Amen Corner
03:49
|

|
This, how you been?
get old, too practiced
no care, considering
all the gift of an ear
of a shoulder
of my time, but never yours.
we must be the one who pretend
fail to hear
to march in place
as if its new
not broken
(Chorus)
consider me
no longer a boy
far from defined
stronger than most
consider us
a love
a war
that fear of failing
that amen corner
where prayers are kept
by candlelight
and wonderment
as if you were a child
and you never knew
your father's hand
and all that was meant
by the word - man.
so when your mother held you
so tender, so new
it was loved by you
the you that you plan for
that you tuck close
and its not my concern
you take care
of yours.

1000 Rocks
04:01

|
I found you
buffing stone
not what you
want me to be
but it really is.
cuz its magic
that we claim
its hard to set aflame
and place it by name
not gonna be
what you want me to be.
but its alright
oooh, its alright.
it really is.
there's a 1000 rocks
in my mouth
and you yapping
i see your eyes destroy the sun
and the moon is a jewel
never worn.
