I've been holding out for better
I'm not gonna let this ever
Find a way back to me
Seen as the hungriest these days
until I see a familiar face
and they cut right through
and it's sweet.
So what if just for tonight
I hold my insides inside
I now know you by the letter
am I gonna know you forever?
Probably, get used to it
It's so ridiculous we say
everything that we don't convey
that was never there in the first place
So what if just for tonight
I hold my insides
Where did you go?

See, it's simple
Not everything's intricate all the time
I count the days but what are they?
Besides, if it's not keeping you up nights
It's a waste of -
Life throws sets of introspective mess in your eyes
and I'm least likely to forget
Watch it windfall
Answers drop from trees and, naturally, to light
The comfort is so warmly sounding like a rhyme
Meticulous means you're probably not doing it -
Right to call off all these bets, there's no contest
What you struggle with is usually what's for the best
What's this for?
Explain to me one more time
Why it's so easy to find myself in Alabaster
Read the symbols
Are you accomplishing or merely standing by?
Did you earn that spot or did you steal it disguised?
Are you innocent but feel like you're losing the -
Light the ends of everything
Quit constantly looking for what's next

Color me cardinal and crimson
Color me cursed
Color my hands red
For not putting yours first
My legs became engines and pistons
My legs became stronger than most are
My words became empty and hollow
My words are still stronger than most are
So we took that road to Bristol where her and 95 would meet
Decisions made clear as a crystal. Ear to the throne, heir to the street.
Was I selfish?
Did it take long to figure out?
What was it like
Not having me to kick around?
So we took that road to Bristol where her and 95 would meet
Decisions made clear as a crystal. Heir to the throne, ear to the street.
Oh Angeline,
You got me on the edge again
On the mezzanine, on my hands and knees
You got me on the edge again
You've got me on the edge

It's getting to the point
Where I try to skip ahead
there's really nothing left
but remembering and it's all I did
proving you were wrong
not that it matters now
there's really no argument against
who stood where and how.
but i feel like the fool
that tried to rush right in
so stupid so sure in my ignorance
now i'm the only one here
holding up their end of the bargain
it all reaches a slowing somber
and it doesn't look like it will be -
careful what we say
we can't afford mistakes
another way to explain our planned fall from grace
but i won't cry for casualties.
because between you and
"i have no idea who could possibly love a wretch like" me
thanks for not being so good
you couldn't lie to your best friend
a ghost of who you were and i was oblivious
now i'm the only one here
holding up their end of the bargain
it all reaches a slowing somber
and it doesn't look like it will be starting

Lost inside a tapestry
You had your back to me
and I got a little more cunning
for each minute spent running
so then we had no tact
who knew that'd bite us?
i did but i stayed quiet and discrete
i guess that i get it, i'm just annoyed
by the overly monotonous tone of his voice
and that chlorine smell
that reminded me of burning
you thought you knew so well
and i found that concerning
because no one could tell
that you weren't lost just learning
funny things you think about
come flying out of your mouth
while i drink
but its not enough consumption
to be where i wanted
then we go back
it's just like you to get mad
over insignificant things
i guess that i get it, i'm just annoyed
by the overly monotonous tone of his voice
and that chlorine smell
that reminded me of burning
you thought you knew so well
and i found that concerning
because no one could tell
that you weren't lost just learning
how promises fly out your mouth
no excuses, no ways out
you worry about the sound

Considering you don't know it's all around us
Something in the air laced with an ancient since
Give me one more day to figure out myself
and I'll quiet down and learn to tame my lions
It's just dyed in the wool
That no message can get through
Yeah, even I can't lay me down
If there's a problem then rue
that one day we'll all act like you
but why even scare ourselves now?
Even if you don't I'll justify myself
Cause and effect are measurements in time
Despite if it's true, I'll dignify these shelves
with achievements symbolizing i'm alive
I wish the sky wasn't blue
I wish I could always think of you
To remind myself not to let me down
If there's a problem or two
Maybe one day I'll be less confused
and finally figure it all out.

No one notices you're not here
We've each gone in a separate direction
I look crazy talking to myself
I don't care how I look when I'm with anybody else
I say the opposite thing sometimes
Not on purpose, I can't stand the pressure
I feel crazy all by myself
I don't care how I feel when I'm with anybody else
Beat on me like beast of burden.
I wish you'd say what you want.
There are places I will never go.
I guess I have to get better at dreaming.
I feel better all by myself.
I don't care how I feel when I'm with anybody else.
Beat on me like beast of burden.
I wish you'd say what you want.
What you want
To give up
Remain in love
and build a home
Start to grow up
Stop doing drugs
Learn to trust
and read more.
