This Isn't Real

Every once in a while
you hide from their eyes
so no one can touch you
Every once in a while
you pay of no mind
how others compare you
Every once in a while
you know that you’re right
while others dismiss you
Every once in a while
you live your own lie
believing you have to
It’s just in your mind
Thoughts in disguise
You don’t even realize
It’s just in your mind
Thoughts in disguise
You don’t even realize
This isn’t real
Every once in a while
you drink up the night
as no one has dared to
Every once in a while
you swallow your time
with nothing that fills you
It’s just in your mind
Thoughts in disguise
You don’t even realize
It’s just in your mind
Thoughts in disguise
You don’t even realize
This isn’t real
This isn’t real
It’s just in your mind
Thoughts in disguise
You don’t even realize
This isn’t real
It’s just in your mind
Thoughts in disguise
You don’t even realize
This isn’t real

Stress In The Midwest
03:12
|
|||
Everyone’s preparing for a crash landing
no fault of our own
With no time to finish the conversation
started long ago
I’m completely certain I’m not entirely sure
who knocks at the door
The seed is sown
And nothing ever grows
To concede the throne
Is not enough
It seems honesty is some kind of inside joke
within private walls
The day you finally realize all the lies you don’t
believe anymore
I don’t know, if you know, we’ve all learned
the lesson of loss
The seed is sown
And nothing ever grows
To concede the throne
Is not enough
The seed is sown
And nothing ever grows
To need alone
When no one even cares to know
The seed is sown
And nothing ever grows
To concede the throne
Is not enough

When Now Is Too Late
04:04

It’s no wonder time has turned to gray
You sit alone and wait to turn the lights out
In a world where the constant is to change
You let it blow, let it blow right past you
What’s shadowed now
Like those lost inside their own delay
Just let me go, let me stretch my wings out
I’m the one who carries all the blame
It’s enough to make you tear your brains out
What’s shadowed now
Just let me find my way
Let me find my way
What’s shadowed now

Buyer’s Remorse
02:35
|

These ideas are too expensive
I’m stuck up here in the nose bleed section
We’ll never solve anything while we’re headstrong
And these things take way too long
to evolve
and it’s just wrong
My resume has all kinds of holes
And I’ve seen authorities take my friend’s souls
Would you like to buy my certainty
Then guarantee you’ll stay out of my way
How would you like to fucking pay
You’ve been sold
I’m not banking on your sinking boat
I’m banking on my 40 year old coat
It’s time to take a crash course
A crash course on buyer’s remorse

When You’re Not Invited
05:20
|

I’d like to contemplate
If they’d let me listen in
With no apologies
I found their own disdain
When I felt them all see me as
As one who had no name
I stood there with refrain
As they did all rule me out
As they would congregate
I just had one thing to say
Until I finally realized
Their own catastrophe
And you’ll find, that gods are not enough
To tell the stories never told
Which makes loss that lonelier
For some time, the wiser ones have found
The more we learn the less we know
Which make gods that lonelier
I found my own reclaim
As I saw who I really was
As one who’s not the same
And if I knew the way
To paths that would’ve led them home
I’d led them all astray
And you’ll find, that gods are not enough
To tell the stories never told
Which makes loss that lonelier
For some time, the wiser ones have found
The more we learn the less we know
Which make gods that lonelier

Dead And Alive
02:58
|

It’s not your fault
That you’ve been denied your sight
Stay on the floor
You never know when things might
This time for sure
You might not even sleep tonight
Sleep tonight and it’s
It’s not your fault
No words to even describe
Even describe
Left on the streets
With an impending war
No kiss of peace
From future’s long ago
I’m hoping you’ll be alright
I’m lying awake tonight
I can’t even unsee the time that I
Saw you dead and alive
It’s not your fault
That you’ve been denied your rights
Stay on the floor
You never know when things might
When things might and this
This time for sure
You might not even see next light
Not see next light
Left on the streets
With an impending war
Blood in your sheets
What are they thinking of
I’m hoping you’ll be alright
I’m lying awake tonight
I can’t even unsee the time that I
Saw you dead and alive
Now there’s no time
Dead and alive
No words to describe
Dead and alive

Here Comes Everything
03:49
|

I never could see you
When I believed you
I knew all along
That I never believed you
When I could see you
It’s a lost cause
Here comes everything
I never perceived you
As one who could see through
Every last thought
I never could see through
The lie that deceived you
Tell me I’m wrong
I know there’s no reason
For blaming the season
Everyone falls
I never could read you
‘Til I saw right through you
It took way too long
Here comes everything

From Nothing
04:06

Take time in your rest
As we go and spend all energy
Sleep well in this mess
As we lose our sense of civility
In one single breath
We lost all our lust for mystery
It’s time that you know
There’s no one who’ll friend the enemies
In spite of their wars
You’ve got to be strong, my darling
Take my hand in yours
We’ll walk along shores, from nothing
I’ll send you the night and watch it unfold
I’ll send you the night
We’ll render the light embrace the unknown
We’ll render the light
With all this unrest
We show and undress insecurities
And much is unknown
How long it will take to explain the means
Only time will confess
That we had no sense and stability
And you know the rest
This goes on beyond our abilities
I’ll send you the night and watch it unfold
I’ll send you the night
We’ll render the light embrace the unknown
It’s just you and I
Let them have their wars
You’ve got to be strong,
my darling
Take my arms in yours
We’ll return to the stars,
from nothing

To The Very End
04:00
|

I’ve got a one way ticket
and no way to get down
And every time they’re looking
I’m nowhere to be found
And now I’m wondering
if anyone will be around
When all this time I’ve been searching
for some way to kiss the ground
And all the while I’ve been looking
for someway to skip town
‘Cause when the tree will fall
it won’t even make a sound
I can tell how this will all turn out
I can tell how
I can tell
Afraid of all the thoughts that come
Afraid of all the thoughts that come
I’m afraid of all the thoughts that come
Afraid of all the thoughts that come
Afraid of all the thoughts that come
I can tell how this will turn out
We’ll just fade out
Like we’ve always done

If not for one warm evening
In some past
Two lives would go on living
Like ships that pass
She’s not far away
If not for one lonely kiss
At first glance
Two lives would go on dreaming
Everending
If not for one long evening
That takes me back
To that one night in some memory
I watched her dance
She’s not far away
