I met a girl and she knew everything about herself but no one seemed to work for her favor Her cafe teeth were hard to please, she tapered but she never ceased to search for someone she could savor I met a girl and she knew everything about herself but no one seemed to work for her favor The magazines were worn with hits for psycho war machines but nothing could arm her for failure Born at the bottom of a bottle Her teeth were all her own Raised by the black eyes she borrowed With fire she never got behind Body and mind Worked harder and harder still She wouldn't stop Iron will The climb Never seemed to high When she got to the top nobody dared to overthrow But nights got quiet she felt so alone I met a girl and she knew everything about herself but no one seemed to work for her favor Determination well defined a partner never crossed her mind until she felt the solemn loss of neighbors "You're too stuck up and clean" They said "I will have things how I want" She said "You won't let me touch you you're so mean" They said "I deserve respect I am not a fawn" She said "I would like you better if you changed your look" They said "I'm not yours to change I'm not yours to run" She said "You're too smart for your own good" They said "I will never lower myself for anyone" She said I will never lower myself for anyone. I met a girl and she knew everything about herself but no one seemed to work for her favor No nobody could keep up her only speed was speed up she didn't need someone who would waver

Smoke 03:24
The hurricane said come on in Tempting dust devils That look a lot like my friends Debris runnin like bloody veins Shards of grass, blades of grass Cuttin out all I thought I knew Smokin with a gun Gritting teeth through the gaps Runnin fingers along to tremble where I was Aint I fun? Ring of lead lungs With red eyes from starring at the sun Am I not enough Or is life just too much Sensitive to the touch What do you see in those clouds To rob the sky's colours When you come back down Who am I even talking to Cause I've seen all your strength and I know this aint you How can I not ache When I was raised by rules that the law makers break I've held off for far too long With so many people on the other side I must be wrong Was this a bad key after all So out of tune with the chorus play a different song Choking on my gun Pink matter melting like waterfalls and seepin through the gauze Aint I fun? Voices fall numb With dead eyes from starring at the sun

Break Another glass of wine Guess you still cant make a prince casting pearls before swine The jester found his way out of the box Wearing the king's socks He demands respect prancing around in stunted pirouettes Play the fool Blame an incident on ignorance hide hands behind those tools Mistakes Loop again in time Cant wait for the next line So here I am again Trying to make ammends Tripping over endless thoughts of what I want, what I can do to get judges consent 10 out of 10 I just wanna be someone That other's can depend Say There's nothing left to say Cause if birds were sorry to leave then they wouldnt fly away The kiddie pool's sprung another leak Wait for someone else to notice And maybe they'll fix it next week Lala la la la Mu dah buh dah lee dah doo doo doo dah dah Chah lee ka bay da boo da bah bah Bee da boo boo boo da dee dooh doo Bah bah baaaaahhh So here I am again Trying to make ammends Tripping over endless thoughts of what I want, what I can do to get judges consent 10 out of 10 I just wanna be someone That other's can depend Box closing tighter in Breathe pressure from the audience with expectations Get 10 out of 10 I just wanna be someone That others can depend

I've been busy Kickin' rocks So focused on where they were I never looked up But now I'm lost here And my stone is gone The future's been turned to fear And the day turns to dawn You know I'll never be In the stars I think someone told me You'll never get that far You know one day I'll be Dust in fire Till then please roll my bones On your wire Days and nights see A freezing flame I need to do something But my body is lame Not very gifted With the spoken word The balance gets shifted And I'm sorely heard You know I'll never be In the stars I think someone told me You'll never get that far You know one day I'll be Dust in fire Till then please roll my bones On your wire The future is movin to fast Let's see how long I'll last You know time ticks on a different tone Don't even need The contacts On my phone You know I'll never be In the stars I think someone told me You'll never get that far You know one day I'll be Dust in fire Till then please roll my bones On your wire You know I'll never be In the stars I think someone told me You'll never get that far You know one day I'll be Dust in fire Till then please roll my bones On your wire

Straining spinal nerves until they snap Dealing with the Discord Driving through the Discord No choice around it but to fall for the trap Dealing with the Discord Driving through the Discord Blinding eyes piercing through my neck Blurring lines shaking screws unchecked Tunnel vision am i changing lanes Swerving vertigo with tightening chains Diesel disdain Diesel disdain Diesel disdain I got Hyperdrenaline The possibilities are far too catastrophic I didnt mean to hurt no one I didnt mean to hurt no one Just one wrong move can push, push, push neurotic I didnt mean to hurt no one I didnt mean to hurt no one I know i have to try There couldnt be more motivation risk their lives for transportation But i dont wanna... Dealing with the Discord Driving through the Discord Diesel disdain Diesel disdain Diesel disdain I got Diesel disdain Diesel disdain Diesel disdain I got Hyperdrenaline

Molehills 05:07
Can't go to bed I'm thinking what to say I need the right words To tell you I've changed And these ghosts Don't want to turn the page Fill the sky With all that it could take Run from my lungs Ice that froze the walls Can't remember what I said But I heard teeth fall Are you sure Give it time You're so young You're so blind It's a phase Don't you see Dont you know who you're supposed to be It's so hard talk With this veil I was given And without regard for the life you discard You're making molehills out of mountains again Cracking, bending Without shelter from the hail All I wanted was to know You weren't part of that gale But you're there One more tack One more brick In the back It's for attention A disease Don't you know who you're supposed to be Know who you're supposed to be Another silent meal The jagged gates wont bend And without regard for the life you discard You're making molehills out of mountains again Even if you aren't there I'll make sure you know Even if you look away You will hear my throat Even if you don't accept it I won't play your game I don't know who you're yelling to But that's not my name Say my name Say my name Say my Say my name x4

Sink 01:27
Someone stole my cells when I was asleep Replaced with pills and broken teeth I don't feel like I did just the other day I sink into my sheets without a trace I drown I drown I drown I drown

Get this time away I can feel it in my bones You see it in my eyes The comprimising dull tones Cause god I need a change That's come from yesterday Progressive flags aren't flying dangling a hook And now is lookin far too late Get this time away 22 anvils blockin like a brick wall stackin With a pyramid formation Can't conform, the high school tires tether torn Another failing mark in concentration I think I feel it I think I think I feel it feel it I think I feel it fading out of my blood I wanna seal it While complications try to steal it The real deal can make a deeper cut The class Grew up Traded lettermans for a tux Pier docks were left behind Peer pressure tollin through my mind Startin to recoginze too much TV Startin to blur the lines in front of me Slow wrist Forte Get this Get this time away I can feel it in my bones You see it in my eyes The comprimising dull tones Cause god I need a change That's come from yesterday Progressive flags aren't flying dangling a hook And now is lookin far too late Get this time a- Wake up it's 12 o' clock again The world moved forward on while you slept in Short circuit in the daisy chain The ticket stub was found under the train Wake up it's 12 o' clock again The world moved forward on while you slept in Short circuit in the daisy chain The ticket stub was found under the train Get this time away I can feel it in my bones You see it in my eyes The comprimising dull tones Cause god I need a change That's come from yesterday Progressive flags aren't flying dangling a hook And now is lookin far too late Get this time away

We thought we were ready when the school bells rang I'm falling up I'm falling up A picture of prospect had slipped the frame I'm crawling up I guess I'm still afraid of the dark Carried little crow wont you be still It's not your time Perched for the front lines No one needs a casket in the landfill Remember to think Dont let yourself sink Lunchtimes spent in a daze Talkin bout nothing Talkin bout everything Laughing from the beach at the waves Always thinking with our eyes never learned to swim thought that it'd be fine come the day It's time There's no book Where's the line We thought we were ready when the school bells rang I'm falling up I'm falling up A picture of prospect had slipped the frame I'm crawling up I guess I'm still afraid of the dark It's the last act of the play (There's not much I can do) Maybe I can just stay (There's not much I can do) If I pay the price, these dorms can keep me safe from outside It's too soon for house lights We thought we were ready when the school bells rang I'm falling up I'm falling up A picture of prospect had slipped the frame I'm crawling up I'm crawling up We thought we were ready I'm falling up I'm falling up We thought we were ready I'm crawling up I guess I'm still afraid of the dark
