I loved it much more than I think you know Does that come as a surprise to you? But this is not about bitterness Or confidence Or any confusion of the two I think that this is about pride somehow More than it is about trust Well I can leave mine at the door If you can learn to listen and digest I'm only gonna ask this once But where the fuck do you get off Carrying that grudge around Aiming it at anyone you can Don't your shoulders get a little sore? Well I don't wanna carry it around no more A real boss don't have to be a boss to get ahead She's only gotta be the man And it ain't fair for you to throw that back at me my friend Can't you see me I am doing what I can Well doesn't it bother you when all your friends keep passing you back All your cigars? It's not as if it makes me happy when I hear That you aren't doing well I just get so fucking angry When I see us burning bridges full of cars So hear me now and take this chance to believe me I never ever stole from you I reserve the right to be confused And I don't think that we deserve to lose Doesn't coldness get a little old? Well I don't want to carry it around in my soul No

One day you will know the truth about me I say to the photo in my mind I say you have so much to witness And I'm laughing cuz I'm curling up inside And all the times that you could not find the words Are what I call my perfect memories So why is it all the things I said Are all I ever could remember of me? Well I say so many things And I mean both less and more Wish I could make up my mind I keep trying to make it to yesterday Cuz I can't forget how you feel Despite my smiling I'm losing faith that there's another way So if I start to let go You must me know That it was real I know the answer is only in my head I just believe that only fools claim to really know I wish you could see the great things in store for me In the meantime could you please tell me where to go Your skin is the closest I've been to purity You know I think of you all the time Where can I fly now that you've shown me gravity? There is no line There is no line Well I mean so many things And I say only less or more Want to stop making up my mind I keep trying to make it to yesterday Cuz I can't forget how you feel Despite my smiling I'm losing faith that there's another way So if I start to let go You must let me know That it was real

Subject 08:12
Hey did you ever know I never was what you said I was Did you even think to ask me if it might be true? I cannot think back to a time when I could think clearly Must have been you Well I've asked myself so many times over the years How the fuck do I get off this train What's now what's next what's new And I can't believe there was a time when I could believe so clearly Must have been you But that isn't me No it never was That isn't me So don't believe in anything But your battle scars and the shit you bring Spit it out, lift your voice and sing Hey did you ever know that I never had what you said I had Hey did you ever know that I never went where you thought I'd go O I am just an animal Made to feel like a criminal Subject to laws that are greater than mine O but I'm more than just an animal How can I feel so criminal? Subject to laws that are greater than yours

I-fi Wireless Fidelity for sky Your I Powerless And infinite as mine This song Or death Beyond the final breath We speak the truth sometimes Like myth-chord mountains, sine wave hills The dots are all out tonight It's time to not quite get my fill This song Or death Beyond the final I can't wait to hold your hand in mine I will wait right here Just out of time I can't wait to hold your hand in mine I will wait right here Just out of line So you're going on your little adventure now Don't forget your bag of meaning Last time you forgot it somehow Ooh it's no surprise You only read between the lines Oh look you've got me talking Talking to myself again Bubbling nothing Churning on ideas They start, yeah, they never end Ooh it's no surprise You don't see the lines with those eyes Do you? Why not just take me with you I've never had more in my life before What better time to throw it all away? Why must you pull and taunt me? You fill my mind up so much but won't even leave One thing to say Oh it's no surprise You see through my eyes Do you still want to follow me to higher ground?
5.
Icarus 05:16
I'm such the little Icarus And you're my blazing sun And I don't wanna come down Cuz I'm having so much fun So I'll just climb climb higher Til the ground and I am one You set my wings on fire We looked just like a star So now that I'm falling faster I'm wondering where you are It's getting hard hard harder to find you With this back of burns and scars And can they really blame me For the warmth I had to feel And can it really matter If only the ground is real It's just so dark down here without you And it will take so long to heal

Tygersong 04:37
How you colour up my eyes How you swallow all the lies How you know to cut right through How they want to cut you too How they comb your smile all while the fuse inches fast How they fear the game that they've played now that you're in the past And the stillness you've held, yeah The stretch when you bridge out the gap What do you think it means When I mean to put my foot in the trap? There's a tiger haunting me Did he come to cut me free There's a tiger wanting me Did he scare you all away? How you slink, yeah, you think to move Even death is just a breath in your room, in your groove You burn my soul out and I'm who they blame Mark my words I'm going to do it again fuck the pain How you storm the mind, I could find at a million degrees How we climb all while that we know that they're burning down the tree But they're gone anyhow, what was that you were trying to say? Right, you were whispering, you want me to blow them all away There's a tiger haunting me Did he come to cut me free There's a tiger wanting me Did he scare you all away Do I scare you? You better run
