Do not Write, Do not Call,
Cut all contact, no transmission at all,
As your colors, stretch and fade,
stars align and you are much to late
No more Lights ok? We don't need the Glow.
Nothing here should Sparkle, and nothing here grows old
So if you don't remember, maybe you should Breathe
Days all run together, and we don't need to sleep
All we wanted was to watch you burn
You won't like it but you've got to learn
This medication is not for your pain
but you don't need it now anyway
No more lights ok? We don't need the glow.
Nothing here should sparkle and nothing here grows old
If you don't remember, Maybe you should breathe
Days all Run together and we don't need to sleep
Poison on the apple, soured on the tree
Linger all you want to, you don't have to eat
we can watch you starve, wrapped up in your sheets
we just wanna watch you burn till theres nothing left but teeth.

Back into the world before.
It gets harder to go home.
While it all comes down in sheets.
We can stand beside the street.
I hope you never find a cure.
It turns ten times through the vein,
Not a wrinkle just a stain.
A reflection of a bruise.
Cause you're so good at what you do.
Cause you're so good at what you do
Picking pieces to appear.
All the hazards became clear.
Reservations run aground,
somewhere north and cold we're bound.
And I just need a little more.
It turns ten times through the vein,
Not a wrinkle Just a stain
A reflection of a Bruise
Cause you're so good at what you do
A reflection of a bruise
cause you're so good at what you do
Cause you're so good at what you do
It turns ten times through the vein
Not a wrinkle just a stain
A reflection of a Bruise
Cause you're so good at what you do...

Its over. Would you believe?
We want to, Burn everything.
Its just a dream. Wrapped up in tape.
With glitter, filling the veins.
Say what you want today.
We don't negotiate.
For everyday, for every week,
Nowhere to hide, no time to sleep.
All that you want, all that you crave.
Think what you want, but stay awake.
Hold on, Do not breathe.
Ignore them, 'cause nothing really matters.
With your disease, we wondered,
Would you believe?
That you can't drink the water.
You can't stay here any longer.
For everyday, for every week,
nowhere to hide, no time to sleep.
All that you want. All that you crave.
Think what you want, but stay awake.
Is this all there is today?
There is no other way.
We're gonna give it all to you.
We're gonna lose it all its true.
No one had to make me choose.
We're gonna lose it all, its true.
For everyday, for every week,
nowhere to hide, no time to sleep.
All that you want. All that you crave.
Think what you want, but stay awake.

Stay in Bed

here you come all dressed in red,
with an ex drawn cross your chest.
So lets lay down, we'll play dead.
Point the spotlight, at your head.
Maybe you should make amends,
For every single word you've said.
Lets draw a circle 'round your heart.
Its always been the hardest part.
Lets take it back, lets move it through.
Should I be sorry for this too?
You should know now that nothings new.
I can't stand the sight of you.
Maybe you should stay in bed?
A million Soldiers Marching On,
And in your kingdom theres no god.
Paint our X's on the signs
Who ever said that "you'd be fine"?
So can I watch your cancer Spread?
Turning Black and turning red.
They all Care. For what its worth,
I hope your medication works.
Lets take it back. Lets move it through.
Should I be Sorry for this too?
You should know now that nothings new.
I can't stand the sight of you.
Maybe you should stay in bed?

Nothing

Every night, in this room, I am cold. I don't move.
While we're spinning, I point at you.
Then a drink spills. Nothing moves.
This old rug, I've had for years,
and this notebook. You just stare.
There is Nothing.
There is Nothing Left to do.
There is Nothing here for you.
There is Nowhere, left to go.
Might as well just go back home.
The right hand is made to kill.
While the left is full of pills.
You should choke all of them down...
There is nothing.
My nose always has to Bleed
For all the things I put in me.
No way to bleed all you out.
No way to drown out the sound.
If the clock is set for ten,
But when we wake, don't matter when?
Nothing here, means a thing...
There is nothing.

Wake Up, you're breathing deep this time.
All eyes, Focused in just fine.
Well Meshed, shedding as we're lit.
Chewed through, to the ants, deep inside the earth.
Once you're bleeding Blue
As you wondered who
in the evergreens
And the needles dig in deep
If you whisper Lula-byes, all you've gotta do is stay outside,
So you wake up, go to sleep. No one even needs to say a thing.
So Twitch, Prepare what goes wrong.
With fresh scribbled covered walls.
An this, Moving in straight lines.
Lets just refill your prescription one more time.
If you swallow hard
But Bleed blue tomorrow
You just barely breathe
in the gutters and the streets
If you whisper lula-byes, all you've gotta do is stay outside,
So you wake-go to sleep. No one even needs to say a thing.
One more time into the earth. Somehow it just seems to work.
When ash blocks out all the sun, you twist you turn, as you run.

To Dumb to ever shake.
Up or down its all the same.
Underneath the guise of sleep,
Theres some things that never breathe.
Two Moth's grow inside of you.
To cut deep inside it too.
Of all the little bits you lose,
what's another one or two?
Draw a line to the edge of me.
Circle round till you can't see.
As it drips and pools in green
Underneath a different name.
Who said you ever meant?
Another bruise in a set.
Two more to reminisce.
Who said you ever meant?
All eyes shift up the tall tree
You can't choose, what you leave
Just a little bit to the left,
And a little bit to the right,
So far, what have you learned?
Is it just a bit to burned?
Well it still looks alright,
if you close both of your eyes.
Draw a line to the edge of me
Circle round till you can't see
As it drips and pools in green
Underneath a different name.
Who said you ever meant?
Another Bruise in a set.
Two more to reminisce.
Who said you ever meant?

Alcohol Drip

No matter how much I drink, I just can not block out.
All the things that you mean, an we can not walk around.
In your head you've portrayed. A million dreams that you've made.
While at the bottom I wish, in a bottle I'll twitch.
All you wonder we know.
If I could walk to your show.
We ran Blood that we give.
So, where'd we begin?
If there's one drip to save.
We could never behave.
I just can not believe.
There is blood on my sleeve.
No more, you don't have to go. The shape of your mouth I know.
One more sip and we'll drown. But no one will hear a sound.
As you whisper I sink. Always drowning to drink.
There is no witness here. Fall in love with your fear.
All you wonder we know.
If I could walk to your show.
We ran blood that we give.
So where'd we begin?
If there's one drip to save.
We could never behave.
I just can not believe.
There is blood on my sleeve.
While you shine as you know.
We just see you below.
In reflection we stare,
and pass out to breathe.
No more wonder we'll wish,
But just drown as we twitch.
If theres no way to know.
I won't see you back home.

Whatever

As I ride, looking far ahead sometimes.
If you're right, With a grain inside eye.
You could chew. But once it gets inside of you.
I can't go, anywhere to feel at home.
It is colder than the snow.
Moving slower as we go.
If you framed, everytime it looked the same.
An we'll sit, and just stare until fits.
It is colder than the snow.
Moving slower as it goes.
Drifting in and out we wake.
With a mood that swings for days.
I don't wanna wake today.
I don't wanna wake today.
I don't wanna wake today.
I just wanna stay in bed.

The Empty Sea

Breathing so hard. Whisper "it don't mean a thing."
With an old heart. And a wall made up of sheets.
As it lingers, and gets twisted up in rings.
As the snow drifts, and I can not see a thing.
Do you know where we are?
We're moving Much too far.
Living off of sleep.
In an empty sea.
Well nothing ever grows.
And we are much too old.
Fading off the glass.
Moving much to fast.
The snow it covers me.
And everything I see.
Drifting 'cross both lanes.
The White it looks so plain.
And if we both turn grey.
Forever stay the same.
Fading out the past.
The colors never last.
Is it cold enough?
Is it too late?
For all the mess we've made.
Never mistake.
The strap thats holding up,
All the world today.
An if it makes no sense.
I guess thats ok.
Do you know where we are?
We're moving much to far.
Living off of sleep.
In an empty sea.
While nothing ever grows.
An we are much to old.
Fading off the glass.
And Moving much to fast.
The snow it covers me.
And everything I see.
Drifting cross both lanes.
The white it looks so plain.
An if we both turn grey.
Forever stay the same.
Fading out the past.
The color never lasts.
Digging in too deep.
Drifting off to sleep.
Coming through in waves.
The color never stays.
So Cover up the path.
So, no way to go back.
Always floating free.
On an empty sea.

One more Call until we're gone, Everybody leave
We'll strap you down, and make our rounds.
With nothing in your dreams.
So would you believe?
I know why we had to leave
We don't live in dreams
We don't live and dream
With her case, she seems to make. But I still don't care.
As I should, I know I don't. An I don't even mind.
So, if you believe.
I know why you had to leave
And I know, you're right.
I know you're right, ya know?
I know you're right, ya know?
And I know you're right.
I'm sorry I drink so much,
I just can't sleep.
You're so much better, on your own.
Far from this disease.

I Don't Know

When I'm welcomed To the Room
Its so white, without the Moon
No scars, Echoing the same
I'll tell everyone "away"
Can I get something to Sleep?
My own eyes won't close for me.
Can I get something to sleep?
I don't know what's wrong with me.
Can I get someone in here please?
There is no room left to breathe.
Can I get someone to believe?
I don't know what's wrong with me.
And I will go wherever I need to.
And I can't move, but I don't need to.
Can I smoke on the ride through?
And I will move wherever I need to.
If no one knows, where I go
Cause no one needs to?
I don't know?
Sitting all alone in a room.
And I don't write, and I don't move.
Drawing light out of the moon.
Every step now as you knew.
I'm outside, and I can't move
Down the street, into your room.
I Don't Know?
