FRENCH MISTAKE
done the last real life
beside it's hard to see
the dotted line leaves space for you
to jump on the next ride
if luck runs out
blame this interception
forget that it could do harm
unless it's blown out of the water
I know how to help this one out
so here comes your turn
now I'm feeling something tonight
what is the next concern
too perfect, it's a possible return
to the open wound
YOU FILE
in all this time I wait for you
I staple down my heart
won't somebody please undo this dream
I'll believe you when the lights come on
and the army starts to fight the incoming
soon you'll be much easier to capture
so calm down
any desparate thoughts I have left in me
an acceptance missed by just a bit of laziness
it's only the unspeakable fear
somethings gone
I don't know how long it's been since it seemed this way
LOSE ME
farther leads to you
sink and whine
livid cries
I'm still in line
loose me
I cling to this
I know it's on you
it's around
this time I will be calm
see it in time
as far as I know
you will be with me
as I whine
EVERYBODY KNOWS
open up
I once was sleeping
all remains are in safe keeping
looks like everybody knows
I want to learn the secret my way
it's right behind me
so softly
centered in a field
hold to kill
I'm in the same rotation
waiting on a clear reason
why this is the wrong way out
it's right behind me
so softly
lock down inside
more of you buys my time
I never knew this is the way it goes
PROZAC
left alone
to hang on your last words
taken out slowly
those eyes feeding
love don't you feel the beating
left alone
to hate the last ten seconds
ever needed someone whole
say it before I'm done
can't you say it
before I think of the next time
in all this burning
RELIEF
mark out any thing that takes no time
failure fails when nice is one more lie
wait a while for me to be ready
ready for the last snow
I stayed
no one
no feeling in my toes
walk on
move or I may implode
this is not called relief
at last I swallowed
wait til rainfall to countdown
making trouble
we'll be found
TIME AWAY
don't rely on me
my feet are stuck and my eyes leak
but I feel the ceiling drop
the floor rising
it won't stop
time away is all I need
a curse walks around here
I see it hide behind my chair
and it peers at me
it's grip is so strong
it bruises me
everynight the light blows out
silence hears me coming
everyday it fakes us out
silence hears me coming
GUNNER
there is no color here
I'll wait one more minute for you
I suppose I might leave cause I can see
cause I can see him
I see my killer
my shadow has disapeared
so has my ghost
I'm still waiting
I'll get you before you get me
so many people aren't here
but I was meant for you
you'll get me before I get you so I see
FUNCTION
watch it only I don't know
how to get a thing like you
I'm sold on your line
all nice and straight now
I'll tug on this end too long
something shut down on the way here
I don't know what it is
or what it has to do with me
talk to me but I will promise
something strange is coming down on me
and now it's already over
all this wasted time at being so good for you
and now it's already over
WHERE I LANDED
why must I have you around here
i can't forget every sound I fear
no mistake stands in line
take time to remember how you once were
this is not an intrusion
I welcomed it in
