Frightened by foreboding thoughts
Oh I just try to turn it off
Inside a dream I just get lost
What’s the cost?
Knowing what will happen next
Before it’s whispered under my breath
Oh now it happens much less
I think it left
I only have eyes
I close to hide
To hide from something
I never ask why
It seeps inside
Of my mind this time
Shadows drifting by the sides
Can’t be seen by my eyes
I used to be terrified
I wonder why
Catching on and letting go
I try to cling to what I know
But when you know there’s so much more
It doesn’t show
I only have eyes
I close to hide
To hide from something
I never ask why
It seeps inside
Of my mind this time
I only have eyes
I close to hide
To hide from something
I never ask why
It seeps inside
Of my mind this time

Fever

I’ve been sick
Of all of it
Just taken back
By some of it
More red eyes
No sleep tonight
Unsettled thoughts
Is anything right
Fever
Back again
It’s in my skin, just sinking in
Fever
Back again
It’s in my skin, just sinking in
Fevering
Severing
Building back
My eye on things
Once this time
I’ll make what I can’t find
It’s hiding in
The back of my mind
Fever
Back again
It’s in my skin, just sinking in
Fever
Back again
It’s in my skin, just sinking in
Fever
Back again
It’s in my skin, just sinking in
Fever
Back again
It’s in my skin, just sinking in

Some Things
04:56

Watching like a screen complacently
Every hour seeps into your being
Changing like a feeling constantly
I can’t help the trouble that you’re seeing
No line between the end and reality
Just another product of misfortune
Already there’s been several casualties
Of course, I’ll always leave my door open
I know I can’t change some things
I keep them where they are when I try to stitch the seams
I can’t shake some things from me
But whatever I do I just can’t let them be
It’s easy to lose time through desperation
No time of day to feel it in your bones
I know that I’m never much consolation
Although I try to help the hours go
I know I can’t change some things
I keep them where they are when I try to stitch the seams
I can’t shake some things from me
But whatever I do I just can’t let them be
I know I can’t change some things
I keep them where they are when I try to stitch the seams
I can’t shake some things from me
But whatever I do I just can’t let them be

When Will I Be Gone?
04:54
|

Watching lights dance on my walls
Knowing they’re just chemicals
Every end in the same evening
Indulging in a misplaced feeling
Taking in some stars again
I never finish then I start again
Cutting lines I don’t want to cross
Bury them deep or cut them off
I know my eyes just look like glass
Mirroring words I want to last
Falling into night for a while
To step away from the ongoing cycle
A hand’s flow later I’m holding it back
Just the same as when it never made it past
Now here we are and all there is is time
Just some time and some spreading lines
Now I’m not one to hang on
When will it be gone?
When will it be gone?
When will I be gone?
A hand’s flow later I’m holding it back
Just the same as when it never made it past
Now here we are and all there is is time
Just some time and some spreading lines
Now I’m not one to hang on
When will it be gone?
When will it be gone?
When will I be gone?
