Your Life Away
05:56
|

Overtime
I’ve got a lot of friends
it keeps growing
Keeping me company when my hand’s glowing
Setting it down is worse than not knowing
Don’t give your whole life away
That is all you have to do
I don’t mind, really
I just don’t like talking about that anymore
Life’s been a lot of ‘tell your story’
‘When did you meet and where’s it all going?’
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Hold on tight
There are a lot of things arriving at your door
Try to engage and stick to the story
You haven’t changed but now you’re less boring
Don’t live your whole life away
That is all I ask of you
Life’s a lot of sleeping though
I’ll get some problems resolved in my dreams
Holding a gaze is hard while floating
Where have you been and where are you going?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?

Can’t you see
Through this man
He is not
Good for them
Are you
Are you
Are you
Animal
Are you
Are you
Are you
Honest
Right back to
Where we’re from
Animal
Toting gun
Are you
Are you
Are you
Animal
Are you
Are you
Are you
Honest
What we see
Not a test
Nothing to ignore
Waiting with
Bated breath
One foot out the door
Now it’s time
Lead the way
Give them shelter
From the reign
Are you
Are you
Are you
Animal
Are you
Are you
Are you
Honest
What we see
Not a test
Nothing to ignore
Waiting with
Bated breath
One foot out the door
Choose not to
Say and do
Nothing in return
Lead them all
Train them all
So that we endure
All that we can do
See right through it all

Schedule

Waking up, different from getting up,
A plane to Chicago was proof enough,
That I should just blindly trust within the universe,
You showed me it is real.
You made a change, I will never forget,
Now I wish I could show you, everything it meant,
Even if I would try, I don’t know where I’d begin,
Whatever it is, I don’t understand.
I’ll never know what you go through,
But I’d do it all again with you,
With a life that feels it's always on the go,
I just wanted you to know,
That's okay.
Now it’s harder to enjoy the view,
Feels like I stole it, all away from you,
It makes me hate myself, and what I do,
But deep inside I know that’s not quite true.
Now I’m back all alone in the van,
I’m crying ‘cause I know I’m doing all I can,
Maybe its something else, something out of my hands,
Whatever it is, I don’t understand.
I’ll never know what you go through,
But I’d do it all again with you,
With a life that feels it's always on the go,
I just wanted you to know,
That's okay.
Baby if you need me I can fit you in my schedule,
Baby when I need you can you fit me in your schedule.
It gets cold at night, cold at night,
I just wanted you to know.

Fitness

Run with me fitness is all I know
Run with me fitness is all I know
Run with me fitness is all I know
Train my mind to hunger for playback and talk
Follow closely these voices it’s better than thoughts
Forward Motion God is the words of this song
Don’t complete these words, just cut them
Run with me fitness is all I know
I’ve done a lot of mixing with my numbers
You’ve made a lot of mistakes with my pride
But if life is change and change is hard, will patience be what’s living?
How much farther to go?
I’m outpacing a feeling that someone can serve as a home
Just focus on reaching the things that are under control,
And do it alone
Look down at the road
Lift up your feet
And convince them to never be slowed
And we used to blame distance when something was wrong
And it used to mean something when someone was gone
And it used to be silence and now it’s a hum
And it used to mean something when someone was gone
Run with me fitness is all I know
Run with me fitness is all I know
Run with me fitness is all I know

In a Paradise
04:21
|

Give me something to help me pass the time
A shallow effort to wade through what seems eternity, i don’t mind...
Giving up if it means i can unwind
To find out i am trapped inside who i shouldn’t be
I’ll give you something if you return in kind,
A subtle dose of nothing more than complacency, you may find...
I see an Eagle in a tailored suit
There’s nothing quite like its point of view
It’s like a mirror looking through my eyes,
A life, unlived, shadowed by disguise
We are all just waiting in a line
Forming thoughts we think would never occur to them
But we could never fully satisfy
Our endless need to know what doesn’t occur to us
Eagle in a paradise, it comes, it goes, it already knows,
Your life, has it passed you by?
It came, it went, now you’re in a hole

The Whole

When you look with your eyes widened,
And your mouth opened,
And you breathe so deeply.
You’ve been acting shy lately,
Can’t say what’s on your mind lately,
And you breathe so deeply.
How do you feel? How do you feel?
Up until the sun rises,
Just to use our time wisely,
And you breathe so deeply.
You’ve said you’ve seen signs happening,
But you can’t even look at me,
And you breathe so deeply.
How do you feel? How do you feel?
Like an echo from the past,
Here for long but not quite here to last,
You do some wrong then log the feedback,
And gather dust along the way.
Bet I do,
Always think of you,
Don’t regret what I do,
Just finish what you choose,
Its so hard, this I know,
In the end it's space to grow, not just distance.
How do you feel? How do you feel?

Safe or Not

Are you safe or not
Saying something new
Are you in a lie
Doing what you do
We can get it right
Believing in the light
Are you safe or not
Happens all the time
Happens all the time
How did I know that
You wouldn’t notice
Everything in focus
Everything in focus
We can get it right
Believing in the light
Are you safe or not
Happens all the time
Happens all the time
Are you safe or not
Stopped you but you just knew
Are you in a lie
The action was overdue
We can get it right
Believing in the light
Are you safe or not
Happens all the time
Happens all the time
Tell me what to do
Always seem to lose
Tell me what to say
Always in the way
Tell me what to do
Always seem to lose
Tell me what to say
I’m always in the way

Private Shield
04:08

Me and my private shield,
You can't see a single thing,
But we can you!
Fear my private shield,
You haven't any idea,
What we can do.
Just like a vine, you shall crawl, you shall snap, you shall seek, mindlessly, just like a vine stuck in dirt.
What you dig, whats your deed, ordinary, so naive, shall remain, secret screen, secret world inside, just for me.
Me and my private shield,
You can't see a single thing,
But we can you!
Fear my private shield,
You haven't any idea,
What we can do.
Just like a dog,
Heed and beg, tempered dog,
Time to move along, get along,
Chase and sniff your way on.
Oh simple mind, sob and moan, if you like,
Don’t bark at what you couldn’t climb, couldn’t find,
Tug your leash, to pretend you would bite at
Me and my private shield,
You can't see a single thing,
But we can you!
Fear my private shield,
You haven't any idea,
What we can do.
I’m stepping in between two worlds, shifting, like a ghost.
Time is a play, a good game, I can relate to that.
Left behind, you didn’t know, you couldn’t think, had to take a score so low,
High enough to line it up, and sigh, and size it up and blow some smoke for
Me and my private shield,
You can't see a single thing,
But we can you!
Fear my private shield,
You haven't any idea,
What we can do.

There’s thrill in the danger
Of having “it” all
It’s not like “it” made you
But “it’s” not your call
Have you ever felt “it”
“It” lives without a name
“It’s” more like a feeling If feeling felt the same
Now you’ll start to worry
And worry’s no good
For “it” shows no mercy
If misunderstood
A detrimental concept to inflict upon oneself
I’d offer my condolences if you’d put the words to rest
Now that’s “it’s” made you
Are you really whole?
Now that you’ve got something
Is thrill just fear disguised?
Although you deserve “it”
You’ll try to no avail
To find out “its” purpose
Is forever veiled
An interesting concept to attribute reason for
Impenetrable fortresses always have hidden doors
A detrimental concept to inflict upon oneself
I’d offer words of wisdom if i had the words to tell
We are stuck inside a home unsettled
What good is it if you can’t give it back
I like, you like, we like nothing
But we pretend that we’re happy
There is nothing left to (give)

Sifting

We shall get down to kneel,
Gathering for the big reveal.
We shall be prepped to pay,
Practicing to look the other way.
Progress is killing our home,
We're pretending to the throne.
If something's out there, know it's rare,
That I would ask and you'd reply,
Offer what you can this time.
