Girl In The Mirror

So I just know that you're an anthem
And you're calling me handsome and it sets the mood
we both sing etudes
But theres this girl in the mirror
and my utmost fear that she'll sing the blues
Because she'll misread you
And though my hands are bound you're still the
chain
around
my neck
And I know I know what I want but right now
what
can I expect
So I'm a public spectacle
a regular robot with
nostalgic heart, but i play the part
of modern lover
without the cover of a title or name
but they all sound the same
over and over over I can't bear to say
that if you just call me that name that I wouldn't stay
So I get my fix on
in spit of all these butterflies
and little lies I have to hide from you
But its not a law I'm
breaking its a time of day
our distance makes it this way
Over and over and over I can't bear to say
That if you just call me that name, that I wouldn't stay
Over and over and over I can't bear to say
That if you just call me that name, that I just wouldn't stay
And though my hands are bound you're still the
chain
around
my neck
And I know I know what I want but right now
what
can I expect

The Sand

I want to see your eyes
I want to see the cloudless
blues beyond the planes I see
I want to see your eyes
I want to walk the distance
Out from all the birds
out from all the words
I just want to
go back to those sands
before I want to go back home
I want to see your eyes
I want to taste the sea
it's got a hold of me
I can't be more happy
I want to see your guise
Your face is makes me wonder
why you sat near me
remind of humanity

All I Want To Do
02:35

And all I want to do is tell you
and all I want to do is tell you how I feel
it feels unreal
and all I want to do is feel you
and all i want to do is lay beside your bones
and feel at home
and all I want do is curl up
and all I want to do is lay inside my bed
to be unsaid
and all I want to do is heated
and all I want to do is hate myself or you
and feel truth
and all I want to do is treason
and I want to do is shrug it off my back
my smile cracks
and all I want to do is hold you
and all I want to do is grow in your embrace
detail-less face
and all I want to do is know you
and all I want to do is be in your council
it would console

Bum Keys
04:34

I remember playing a piano
that didn't just have bum keys but
it was also out of tune
but oh how the sound could fill the room I don't know
I remember endless drives when
the minutes dictate how much gas I
had to get from A to B
but we didn't know what B could be did we
We felt the cold sea
pressed upon, our pale bodies
who knew it left a mark
if it's so clear then why's it so dark
but I guess it's not as easy to see
you've got a hold on me
But I shook my head and just grinned
But my empty eyes weren't full they'd just brimmed
so i pawned you off to my friends so
they could just win
I held onto you with no intention
to, to let go
the sheets were warm but it doesn't matter
it couldn't last and it made me sadder
We felt the cold sea
pressed upon, our pale bodies
who knew it left a mark
if it's so clear then why's it so dark
but I guess it's not as easy to see
you've got a hold on me
You've got a hold on me

Ninety-Two

I just got news from the front lines
I guess it's looking very grim
You say that you got shot and
you don't seem to care about him
I thought that I could take a bullet for
A friend such as yourself
so put me on the shelf
and let the dust grow
Though he's an outside source he
might as well have stabbed me in the heart
Though he's a notch in your sheets he
might as well of ripped my arms apart
Though he's an outside source he
might as well have stabbed me in the heart
Though he's a notch in your sheets he
might as well of ripped my arms apart
But i just keep throwing punches
just to prove my guards not down
below my chest
although a blow to my heart might just feel the best
But its just an act of nature
Because you think it'll help
the pain of being away
god i wish I could just stay
Over and over
sometimes it doesn't take words
But it still stings to know
That you're there
Though he's an outside source he
might as well have stabbed me in the heart
Though he's a notch in your sheets he
might as well of ripped my arms apart
Though he's an outside source he
might as well have stabbed me in the heart
Though he's a notch in your sheets he
might as well of ripped my arms apart
Over and over
sometimes it doesn't take words
But it still stings to know
That you're there

Jet

I see myself just sitting on a seat upon a plane
but the turbines fill with flames
and I can't just hold the reins so I'm just falling
Out of the sky so no one can see the freckles in my eyes
but I would rather hold you than a parachute
Your the laser pen and I'm the cat up on the wall
I can't trap you at all
But all the people that just saw they start to laugh
And though your so elusive I keep coming back see
if you would finally let me catch thee
But in my falling action between the skies and the sweet sands
my tongues tied with rubber bands
it's hard to fake romance when you've just fallen
And I don't know if I can be the cloud to hold you high
all I know is I'm just a guy
and when I just stand next to them and try to say my name
I have no wealth or fame
Just some quirks I can't complain about to you
So the serpents tongue won't bite if you don't talk quite enough
So I stare at my own feet and list off stuff
I'm spilling out my blood and making everyone look down
my tongue is in my cheek and my mouth won't make a sound
everybody thinks that I'm a wild one at heart but lets not start
I see myself just sitting on a seat upon a plane
no one knows name
it seems to keep me sane because I can't function
because loving is my game,
and it can't all sound the same
And I've paid off all my dues so I can get home on this plane

Go Climb A Tree
05:53

The houses were haunted
by all these ghosts and their troubled lives
troubled lives
The Ocean was near me
It tried to steer me towards the shore
to the shore
But all these trees burn in the fire
Because they want to get burned down
But we suck on leaves because
We want to see the sun in the ground
The voices at my house
Try to tell me not to let go, but their just echoes
they're just echoes
So fuck me, for thinking
we were close, we were to most
we were to most
I don't know when I just
Fell asleep last night, its such a fright
it's such a fright
But at least it beats
not knowing, I'm on my own
I'm on my own
But all these trees burn in the fire
Because they want to get burned down
But we suck on leaves because
We want to see the sun in the ground
So let me climb another tree
