So you've come to terms with
What she might say.
But you're going anyway.
Just to learn what it might be like
Oh, to be right about someone for once
in your life.
But nothing feels right words are too light
for what you want to say
So, you're testing her patience
loneliness could end with a name
But you're getting all the words wrong
"Trust no one" is all you say.
So you've come to terms with
what she might do.
But you're done with the misanthrope
that lies within you.
So throw yourself at the mercy
of what could not be.
(This could not be.)

Don't let them take control
It is your own,
I remind you.
Don't let them take
The scars you earned from the fight
We learned that they are your own
Just what have they done to you
Replace the old, the new
I damn them all to hell
I might as well.
Why do you run from what you were?
Don't trust a voice that sounds so sure
'Cause it onl tells you what you want to hear
The past can always be heard
In the echoes of the notes,
In the shadows of the words.
Don't give in yet.

I'm drawn to the city's lights
I take comfort in her arms.
Locked in her hold
I fell that I am finally home.
But it was the sound of the sirens
I lost it all.
Awoke to the silence
I recall everything, now.
I failed you.
I admit I was the one that turned away
Hold the line.
I will return some day.
In the heat of the moon she laid on the ground
Asked for my hand, said she heard a sound
It was just the beating of her heart
Slowing down.

Slow down,
Before you drink this bar dry.
Words don't work.
Honey, learn to say goodbye.
Cause there's nothing for me here now,
But the memory that just won't disappear.
Slow down.
I've been racing all my life
So loud.
But with you,
I could hear for the first time.
So tell them, there is nothing for me here now.
But a memory that just won't disappear.
They say you will find the road that
Leads you to what's right.
I don't believe them.

Take time to think it over
Don't be so quick to choose.
I realize you must move forward;
Careful what you do.
The taste of regret forming
On the tip of my tongue.
All the walls are falling.
What have I done?
'Cause this feels the all the space
That I cannot fillmyself
Just as it saves the life of the long lost soul
That cannot find an end.
I live a life by false pretense
So I play it cool,
A simple feigned, false existence
You saw right through.

The twenty in her pocket
Was burniung a hole right through her leg
I wish I could stop her
But I never knew quite what to say.
The doors in this place seem
To shut themselves these days.
I let you go,
I am to blame.
And the rhythms in her head
They never seem to fade.
Colored by the streets
She knows so well.
And the twenty in her pocket
Is burning a hole right through the ground.
I guess we won't be seeing you around anymore.
So while you wait for the rush and light
I will wait for you one more night.

I am of the land.
The rolling hills,
the somber silt,
which you saw
into the earth.
I will remain with you
Until you see my body
fade into the valley far below,
a place that I have come to know.
With the world spinning down
look around.
I stand with you.
You have not lost me.
I am the somber silt
in the land you till.

Oh, how time has aged
this house, this sand, this shore,
and my skin.
But you are timeless, love
A picture framed
on the table placed
it calms my fear
but you're just a ghost
that haunts me here.
I drive the coast most everyday
I search the rocks, the swell,
the sea they look the same.
For you are timeless, love.
I've been lost for years,
consumed with fear,
I beg of you;
return to me.
Now I pace the beach,
I guard the breaks,
and protect the sea.
I walk for miles,
as I have for years.
I'm tired now,
I release my fear.
I wade into the waves
Let the tide pull me out
Let the currents have their way
A ghost like a dream
Like the tear of a seam of your eye.
As i lose sight of shore
surrender me to the ocean floor.
And I'll see you soon.
