Miracle 02:45
Oh my god he didn’t lie, now I need an alibi Waited too long to change my views, Now I know I’ve been used One size fits everyone, guaranteed loaded gun (No religion understands) I heard yesterday, tomorrow, will be no good Rarely know what I want, what I want, want to know Given up on giving in, made a decision torn within Not spoken to anyone, no religion understands Feeling the pain of a miracle Feeling the pain, I understand Feeling the pain of a miracle
2.
Bite my tongue and throw it away Give me the words I mean to say Raise my hand and read this sign Understand everything’s fine It’s so easy to realise You don’t mean that much to me Hold my breath and tell me lies You don’t mean that much to me You don’t mean that much to me Understanding and standing tall Understand I don’t care at all About your thoughts or your opinions Take a wild guess what am I thinking Cause I’m lonely, no more alone Falling silently, into the silence I’ll be screaming Got a choice and got some time Make a decision maybe decide What you want and what you need Stop your talking hurry up and leave
3.
Repeat 02:05
I told you once, I won’t tell you again This is it, beginning of the end You had your chance, you won’t get it again This for you, could be the (end) I know you’re not listening when (I have) to repeat myself Don’t talk down to me You always talk down to me
4.
If there’s a beginning then there’s an end If there’s an enemy there might be a friend If there’s a start then I won’t want to stop If there was love then I forgot Nothing left to say yeah I don’t want to know Try and sedate me Never let me go If there’s a lost there might be a found If there’s ignorance I won’t be around You steal my dreams and leave no receipt Add fuel to the fire and get no relief Nothing left to say yeah Going nowhere Tired of fighting No longer care
5.
Crawl 03:23
I haven’t got it yet but the sickness is in the mail I know I bought the ticket but it’s the train that’s derailed Cause I don’t want to falter you’ve given me a faith A faith that can lie, I’d crawl for you Miss my medication every now and then To throw myself off, I know it’s not pretend Cause I don’t want to be, controlled by you You’ve got the price to make me see it through Cause I don’t want to be, controlled by you To give me what I need, I’d crawl for you When you siphon up the sun Leave me dark and alone Why won’t, you give me what I need Dawn breaks, only to re-emerge unscathed I’d crawl for you Loss of any connection, through never getting to sleep I never really wake it’s a cycle I can’t beat Cause I don’t want to have change the frequency This frequency of mine belongs to me Cause I don’t want to have to change the frequency To clear this static of mind, I’d crawl for you
6.
Cloud 02:43
Sunny days are now overcast Can’t promise you but I know it’ll last Feel this front come from behind May make you lie down a while Change your view to a different point Now give you something you won’t enjoy, cause My mind’s not what it used to be My mind plays tricks on me My mind’s not what it used to be yeah My mind I know these clouds will not bring rain Just a few tears for this hurricane Feel this tremor fall and fault Now give you something a little unknown Change your view to a different point Now give you something you won’t enjoy, cause Falling sideways without the fall I miss that shooting star Change of season with a distracted smile Storm cease a little while Maybe it’s just a dream These nightmares that make me scream Gravity relents a while Waiting for night to fall, cause
7.
Circle 01:47
Hate, the way you make me Hate, the fever that just won't break The lies I don't want to Share Coming full circle Smile, pretend everything's Fine, lies that you tell me Lies, that I'll never ever Write Coming full circle Lie and say it's all ok Wash another horizon away You only left me time to soothe the pain
8.
Howl 03:02
Shifting these sands with a fine toothed comb Reminds me of the lies, I took home Three tours in, in this foreign land No promises, more demands I want to know for sure Will I be the same, will I need more, I fear Everything’s backwards and undone You got this horizon I’ve got this gun I don’t want to hear about your perfect little world Endless choice, non-deserved Let the wind Howl Ignite the fire that’ll never ever stop Adjust to the silence and reset this clock The pain of youth and the loss with age I won’t forget those memories are saved
9.
Blah Blah Blah You make me feel unhappy I want to slice your face off And wear it as a nappy AAAAARRRGGGHHHHHH Slice off your fingers And stick em in your holes Feed you laxatives And watch you explode AAAAARRRGGGHHHHHH I want to kill you
10.
Colourblind 01:43
Screamed so hard I forgot what I said I’ve grown accustomed to life with no bed I know all the answers Just not sure of the questions If you understood what I said Try and tell me what did I say Even my parents can’t remember my name I’ve already seen the future and what it means It came to me In this remembered dream, Youth and death are gone the same, one the same (I’ll be dead by thirty –three no reprieve) Don’t trust myself, so I won’t own a gun Destroying everything seems like fun Don’t want to kill myself but I Don’t want to live I’m just waiting for this life to give
11.
Surprise 02:11
Starve these emotions with a chemical numb Reattach these wings that were burned by the sun Hold this reflection as you relearn to fly No warning signs and no reason why Everything falls apart Do it again, lie and say that you’d never lie Your version of the truth is no surprise, yeah Covered in darkness and discovering a light Being shown grace when everything’s a fight Change these colours slowly change your view Rediscover hope rediscover you
12.
Let me tell you something, I got something to say You should have listened to me I’d have made them pay You’re just not listening, you don’t understand Sign these thoughts with these broken hands I know you’re wrong Cause I’m always right Now you see it and oh no you don’t You shouldn’t be allowed to vote Bi-partisan is just a waste of time Too many bold strokes not enough fine lines All we are, are zero’s and ones I’m no zero, I’m one, self righteous man It’s just my opinion but guaranteed fact Safe as houses you can bank on that All these details are a waste of time Drop the bomb tow the god damn line
13.
Clearly 03:51
Subtle as a brick to the face I’m a bulldozer with not enough space I’m a short fuse holding a match Decide now how you want to act It’s like what they say Who are they and what do they say It’s like what they say Who are they and what do they say Make a point and make it clearly Quiet as a scorched earth I know what these words are worth I’m a talk straight and to the point No connections for this joint cause Whisper to me there’s a hole in the sun And tell me how you want to be won I feel alright, I feel all left I feel like I’m in charge of this mess cause
