In Stone

Remembering what you forgot
Worn out journals of the dreams you'd miss
Becoming everything I'm not
And still believing that your god exists
Early on
I know they followed me
I waved it off
And tried to stall the pending light
Bury mine, bury mine
Bury mine in stone
I can't recall what happened last
The days are blurring back into the night
The moment has already passed
I barely had a chance to make it right
Early on
I know they followed me
I waved it off
And tried to stall the pending light
Bury mine, bury mine
Bury mine in stone

Head On
04:58

Faintly sharpening will
Waking up to capture your daily photo
We're still climbing uphill
High enough to look down at the volcano
1, 2, 3 we'll peek every hour
Come with me, we'll share some air
I'm too weak for the world
Watching everyone think they found a reason
But you're my favorite girl
Stretching out the fall for another season
1, 2, 3 we'll peek every hour
Come with me, we'll share some air
Pain behind that door
Is like you've never felt before
Imagined only
I can't unsee things that I've seen, but I know
We'll never fall back in line
Go on tell everyone
Empty words you don't know how to stand by
So reluctant to show
Even though you'll wake back up after midnight
1, 2, 3 we'll peek every hour
Come with me, we'll share some air
Pain behind that door
Is like you've never felt before
Imagined only
I can't unsee things that I've seen, but I know
We'll never fall back and I'm letting go
Take it all head on
Without a ghost to weigh you down
Even if we know they're wrong
Another place to keep around
Even if we don't belong
Ignoring everything we found
Even if we know they're wrong
I guess I'm letting go
Take it all head on

Eroding
03:07

To know is not to see
Couldn't tell me otherwise
We see things differently
Only now I realize
We're all just waiting till we drift away
Tell me what I should be
And I won't apologize
You know why
I won't lie
You know why
And we're just slowly eroding
The worst part is knowing
If it was worth it all
Would you leave a second time
Finding your purpose how
Do I try to find mine
The past that brought you to my front door step, soon as I
Get over losing love
Here it comes again now
You know why
I won't lie
You know why
And we're just slowly eroding
The worst part is knowing
I won't lie
You know why
I won't lie
And we're just slowly eroding
The worst part is knowing
What will become of our fading sun
When we're all gone

Early Warnings
04:31
|
|||
A lighthouse, a beacon
A gust that brought me to my knees and
A vague horizon, still searching
You know you're not the only reason
Tomorrow, you're waiting
Relentless in your imitating
A better version of yourself
Emotions always withheld
Nothing you say will change a thing
But you say it anyway
Driving to you in pouring rain
Always made me feel the same
You don't try to mask it
Cut up by now, you're heavy handed
Early warnings could only
Reveal your shame, but you demand it
Another year older
Still here somehow and someone told her
Love is only suggested
But not what you expected
Nothing you say will change a thing
But you say it anyway
Driving to you in pouring rain
Always made me feel the same
How could I know that you would run
At the hint of something more
It's never enough to be just one
Of the others from before
Now that I know you will run
At the hint of something more
It's never enough to be just one
Of the others from before

Throw It Away
03:54
|
|||
The more we try
To hold on tight it all slips away
To calm your fire
Another night with nothing to say
Could it be more unclear
Holding someone else
And talking to yourself
A monument
Destroyed by war bracing for more
Watered down
The pressure mounts outside your door
Could it be more unclear
Holding someone else
And talking to yourself
Every night
Throw it away
Nothing's wrong
Throw it away
