You Say a Name

If it were up to you
You'd fill me up with gravel
What a thought to make me bullet proof
When rocks already made me full
If it were up to me
The cement would be my jacket
What a thought to make me bullet proof
When I'm already immune to it
You say a name that you know I don't know
From that you made the moment slow
I caught your lies why don't you just say so
You make it hurt when it's a show
I don't wanna hear it
Anything you say
You just can't admit
That you just betrayed
All that we tried building up again
Oh it's too much then
I can see you drool
At the sight of their conscious
Bending to your rule
It's just you, not us
Anytime you ring the bells you think
We'll fall and then sink
Until I hear
You say a name that you know I don't know
From that you made the moment slow
I caught your lies why don't you just say so
You make it hurt when it's a show
In this moment, you're just an act
And since you noticed, you can't turn back
In this moment, you're just an act
And since you noticed, you can't turn back
In this moment, you're just an act
And since you noticed, you can't turn back
In this moment, you're just an act
And since you noticed, you can't turn back
You say a name that you know I don't know
From that you made the moment slow
I caught your lies why don't you just say so
You make it hurt when it's a show
You say a name that you know I don't know
From that you made the moment slow
I caught your lies why don't you just say so
You make it hurt when it's a show

Across the hall
Almost saw you
Didn't bring all
That you want to do
Oh
I didn't know that you heard
I shouldn't have said it then
Oh
But now you just see that floor
And you can't take it anymore
Oh
I wish I was colorblind to you
Because you're just super glue
Oh
On that detail I dwell
I guess I'm alive and well
And I wish I could talk to you about it
But anytime I vent I get self conscious
Eight days away from
Everything I wanna meet that
Waits for me on that side
But I know
Without that fourth side
I won't know
That I'll be denied
Does it
Sound good or is it at least
A little like my type or am I
Finished from the start oh no
Oh
I didn't know that you heard
I shouldn't have said it then
Oh
But now you just see that floor
And you can't take it anymore
Oh
I wish I was colorblind to you
Because you're just super glue
Oh
On that detail I dwell
I guess I'm alive and well
Yeah you know I’m never feeling merry
Got that cherry no strawberry
You know very well I’m scary
Broke my knuckles now you hate me
Used to date me now you rate me
One to ten, zero’s a maybe
Been catching crimson stars lately
Little white buddies come save me please
Sour and sweet
They say you are what you eat
But all your mannerisms
Seem one sided to me
And yet i still pity you
I mean, screw you hey-yo
I’m sorry I didn't know
Oh
I didn't know that you heard
I shouldn't have said it then
Oh
But now you just see that floor
And you can't take it anymore
Oh
I wish I was colorblind to you
Because you're just super glue
Oh
On that detail I dwell
I guess I'm alive and well
Across the hall
Almost saw you
Didn't bring all
That you want to do

All a Fuss
03:34
|
|||
Been through too much for us to say
Go away
So I'm here if you need a friend
When I see you pass again
I'll smile and wave I'm being genuine
I know probably seems I'm being fake
But I'm not finally I'm awake
Said you were a bad influence, but I did that on my own
I've become worse I think you should know
Last time we met I tried to blend in
Didn't realize you'd changed since way back when
Been through too much for us to say
Go away
So I'm here if you need a friend
There's been too much between us
I've made it so it's all a fuss
Wrote a song about how I felt then
I've seen my flaws so here's this instead
I see now how it was me
Didn't know how one sided I seemed
It might not work anymore
But to be support that's what I'm here for
That birthday that you gave
Those gifts you thought of and made
It still hangs on my wall
The memory before the fall
Wrote in my book before you went
Thanks for the time in the car they lent
Someone to lean on, that time we spent
Said you're gonna miss me, is that what you meant to say?
Been through too much for us to say
Go away
So I'm here if you need a friend
There's been too much between us
I've made it so it's all a fuss
Wrote a song about how I felt then
I've seen my flaws so here's this instead
I see now how it was me
Didn't know how one sided I seemed
It might not work anymore
But to be support that's what I'm here for
So I'm here if you need
So I'm here if you need
So I'm here if you need
So I'm here if you need a friend

Staring through
I can be anyone I wanted
I'm tired it's true
But everything I did is
Overdue
And all this running is hurting
I can't leave
And I won't cause
I want you
I want the feeling of falling through
The double jump of my heart to you
And I love where we are
But if it's home or the stars
I promise I'm not too far from you
(Not too far, not too far)
(No not too far, not too far)
Final days, just look at the first
See the stars and you know that you're cursed
What they say it can be reversed
Let them hear, surely they've heard worse
But if you stay in silence
They'll go to the moon
Without you
If they look down it'll just be easier to look at the sky
To get past the clouds like a meteor that shook up the night
If you go fast enough
You could be someone's shooting star
But until I get there
I want you
I want the feeling of falling through
The double jump of my heart to you
And I love where we are
But if it's home or the stars
I promise I'm not too far from you
(Not too far, not too far)
(No not too far, not too far)
I took it too far but I thought I could switch up something
Oh and I guess I thought you switched up too
But you act like everything I said was nothing
You reminded me of your old ways
Reel me inside that looping maze
Makes me think that's where I should be
But as long as I can see it
I want you
I want the feeling of falling through
The double jump of my heart to you
And I love where we are
But if it's home or the stars
I promise I'm not too far from you
(Not too far, not too far)
(No not too far, not too far)

Past Belief
04:26

Long ride down to the empty thrills
Waiting for something we should think on
Don’t mention what we should’ve said then
I can’t just leave, but i’ll still go
Start going down the empty hills
Cool breeze at night, been gone for too long
I should turn back, stop thinking too much
Just watch the lights, they’ll be gone soon
I wish I believed in the past
So I could slip away from my future
But I mean at least you could ask
The vague light that glows still where you were
I miss you like you’re already gone
Translucence, I look it turns on
You didn’t care about talking to me
You just wanna hear your voice instead of me sing
You miss me like I’m already gone
What if I gave you what I had drawn
Ease the pain so you’ll disagree
You bend the rails to change how I’ll be
I wish I believed in the past
So I could slip away from my future
But I mean at least you could ask
The vague light that glows still where you were
I wish I believed in the past
So I could slip away from my future
But I mean at least you could ask
The vague light that glows still where you were

He Sailed (Interlude)
01:12
|
|||
Came to meet us but you didn't
Want to after what you heard
Oh, all that you had said
The only thing I know
Is he sailed
Saw me just the day before
What's my excuse that it's not more?
Oh, all that you had said
The only thing I know
Is he sailed

Blueshift
03:42
|

I've been watching a star
No other way to see it, it's far away from me
I've been wishing on a star
No way to know if the legends are for real it seems
That maybe stars don't shoot like they say
But I can dream anyway
I want to see a blueshift
But it's not any closer to my reach
I want to see a blueshift
But I'll still go against what they preach
I've been wishing on a star
All I want is to see it turn blue
Start to feel the heat as it comes close
But that just happens to a few
I want to see a blueshift
But it's not any closer to my reach
I want to see a blueshift
But I'll still go against what they preach
I've been wishing on a star

Too Late to Catch Up
02:39
|

We're gettin’ paid two hundred sixty Jeffersons an hour
Don't be so surprised when you do nothin’ and I'm feeling sour
I can see that he's the president but now I'm feelin’ like the king
Don't you see this castle's heaven sent you're here because of me
Here three years the deer won't stop me gears and shears will make it clean
Don't you understand that this is the best work you've ever seen
Maybe I should make an introduction
We been out here every week in the heat of the sun
For a guy who's got himself feelin’ like a skeleton
And when time has come I doubt they'll even have a reaction
You're pickin’ weeds while I'm buildin’ the ground
Cop drives by you hide to not be found
To every other seat somehow you're bound
Make sure that when I pass you don't make a sound
Maybe you have noticed that I'm bein’ hypocritical
I'm writing rhymes on his time it seems like I'm being cynical
I know that you're right to judge me
I'm a god but also nothing
The skeleton is tellin’ ‘em some praises and they say they make it
None of what they spit's legit they quit before they split to sit
I get it the job seems a lot to keep a ghost alive
But I know that you've realized it's not a key to grow does it not hurt your soul
When you take the pay
And you're chillin’ inside almost every single day
There's nothin’ more that I hate
Than the time you waste
I could cure the world before you close that door
When you move at that pace
You're pickin’ weeds while I'm buildin’ the ground
Cop drives by you hide to not be found
To every other seat somehow you're bound
Make sure that when I pass you don't make a sound
Maybe you have noticed that I'm bein’ hypocritical
I'm writing rhymes on his time it seems like I'm being cynical
I know that you're right to judge me
I'm a god but also nothing
Lightning blood flashin’ it's power they hunger
I'm feelin’ like Zeus, I'm the real son of thunder
I wanna, pound down outta town hear a loud sound
Back around, don't know how I found it but I'm time bound
In a minute maybe there'll be somethin’ makin’ me leave
Don't stop writin’ rhymes you're like a sloth suckin’ tea leaves
Play so many notes don't even know that you would believe
Basically I'm sayin’ it's too late to catch up to me
Maybe you have noticed that I'm bein’ hypocritical
I'm writing rhymes on his time it seems like I'm being cynical
I know that you're right to judge me
I'm a god but also nothing

Somehow I Cry
03:57
|

I said I'm tired I need a break
But don't make me go to bed
I can live if I'm awake
Sleep is just shy of being dead
That's why I stay up late
To make today last
Tomorrow a bit delayed
If I skip to tomorrow
I have to deal with everything again
But the world's still in the nighttime
For this lifetime
And if I'm in sight I'm
Just a lie
In my world of bright dimes
Somehow I cry
And if I'm in sight I'm
Just a lie
I said I'm tired I need a break
But don't make me go to bed
I can live if I'm awake
Sleep is just shy of being dead
That's why I stay up late
To make today last
Tomorrow a bit delayed
If I skip to tomorrow
I have to deal with everything again
But the world's still in the nighttime
For this lifetime
And if I'm in sight I'm
Just a lie
In my world of bright dimes
Somehow I cry
And if I'm in sight I'm
Just a lie
But the world's still in the nighttime
For this lifetime
And if I'm in sight I'm
Just a lie
In my world of bright dimes
Somehow I cry
And if I'm in sight I'm
Just a lie
But the world's still in the nighttime
For this lifetime
And if I'm in sight I'm
Just a lie
In my world of bright dimes
Somehow I cry
And if I'm in sight I'm
Just a lie
Doo doo doo doo doo doo

In this rubble built myself a haven
Found solitude in smithereens
For decades I have laid here shameless
And who’s to tell you what it means?
They reconcile these remnants for you
A panorama of machines
And who’s to say if they adore you?
Forever draped in velveteen
And soon I'll have no eyes
Don’t wanna see it anymore
A tyranny without lies
A chasm with an open door
And do you find it unwise?
To hold a glass that’s got too much to pour
This continuity will capsize
It was enough for you but nevermore
We stretched his mind out to the brink
Mending what we had is too much to think
We saw it come as his knees got shaky
And the smog choking you and me is just a maybe
Visions always take back their gifts
I can feel his hand turning to fist
Nothing you do will last longer than your image
Everything you’re trying is pushed past the limit
And soon I'll have no eyes
Don’t wanna see it anymore
A tyranny without lies
A chasm with an open door
And do you find it unwise?
To hold a glass that’s got too much to pour
This continuity will capsize
It was enough for you but nevermore
It speaks when all is truly quiet
By whispering the unforeseen
Are these simply ramblings of a shadow
Or prophecies of the obscene?
With modesty, I must implore you
Can we forgo the guillotines?
With reverence for those before you
Can we end without killing our kings?
And soon I'll have no eyes
Don’t wanna see it anymore
A tyranny without lies
A chasm with an open door
And do you find it unwise?
To hold a glass that’s got too much to pour
This continuity will capsize
It was enough for you but nevermore
I truly think you meant the best
But you’re so caught up in yesterday
I believed in you until you left
Now i’m forlorn and watching it decay
Wish you wouldn’t bring back what I say
Those echoes strike me every day
But if you free me from this cold embrace
I’ll let you revel in my hideaway
And soon I'll have no eyes
Don’t wanna see it anymore
A tyranny without lies
A chasm with an open door
And do you find it unwise?
To hold a glass that’s got too much to pour
This continuity will capsize
It was enough for you but nevermore
So choose carefully your allies
They might unravel everything you swore
Be wary who you chastise
I was enough for you but nevermore

I See It Again
04:47
|

I had told you that I was sick
But not the night before
But I just knew I couldn’t stick
To lie oh can’t ignore
What I said
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you
Since I had told
The truth of it
Connected where you’ve been
A complete mold
Without the split
It could be filled in
Because you said
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you
Oh, I see it again
I feel it again
The deal I meant
It came back to you

Departure

I hear what you say
Just that simple “Oh, ok”
You don't know what that does to me
But I guess at least you don't have to see
Am I supposed to know if I'm wrong?
Cause I'm not seeing what your mind has seen
Why don't you know that I'm not that strong?
I'll never reach that end, so I'll just stay stuck in between
I'm done with now
I wish minutes count
Oh, not so loud
It's my limit
Found, always this sound
Like I've been hit
Round, oh please around
No sharp edges
When we saw that red
Do you remember what you said?
We just called it a dare
But to be flat out like this, is it really even fair?
Am I supposed to know if I'm wrong?
Cause I'm not seeing what your mind has seen
Why don't you know that I'm not that strong?
I'll never reach that end, so I'll just stay stuck in between
I'm done with now
I wish minutes count
Oh, not so loud
It's my limit
Found, always this sound
Like I've been hit
Round, oh please around
No sharp edges
I laid it out
Took off the armor
So now I just count
Until my departure
