Stars Fall

Look into my eyes
Let's live on forever
We burned all of our regrets
There is nothing more to remember
When death knocks at our door
We won't answer, we won't go
We'll be running through the trees
We won't look back, now or ever
When we've reached the top of the hill
We'll watch the cities fall and rebuild
We'll live to see the end of the world
We'll know our love will never be killed
Burning down around us
Everything we know laid bare
When the stars fall from heaven
Where will they land?
Listen to my voice
Let's love always together
We've counted all of the stars
They don't seem that far at all
This is the last night.
As the ashes fall from the sky
The calm settles in
What do we do now?

Walk With the Dead
04:04

why are you scared of emptiness?
why are you frightened by silence?
why do you struggle with vacancy?
why are you fearful of kindness?
you are amongst the only ones
paralyzed without the sun
you can’t deny you’re on your own
caught in a field that’s overgrown
you can walk with the dead
you can walk with the dead
be alive.

there are laws of the universe, and we have broken every one
the world is in chaos, how can we last another 100 years?
the truth is, we were not meant to.
we never knew what we had.
it's not about the rising seas, it's not about the polar bears
it's only about your God-given right to fuck everyone over.
this is why we can't have nice things.

Dancing Sad

i envy you in a way
but you always circle like a buzzard on rotting flesh
it's really noble of you to keep this place so spotless
like the blood was never there.
all those gray hairs
are from doing the opposite of what i had planned for you
hold on to my hand now
do you regret this at all?
we're gonna find out.
if you sing this song again
you'll be dancing sad again
if you see my face again
you'll feel sorry for your sins
if you feel like you can't win
you'll be dancing sad again
if you see my face again
you'll feel sorry for your sins
i miss you in a way that i cannot explain
like a friend that guides you home
how very naive of you
so disorderly, coded, tangled and exploding
follow me, forget of those dreams
and all those sketches of hope
they're unattainable now.
hold on to my hand now
do you regret this at all?
we're gonna find out.
am i nothing?
are you near?

Take Down the Sun
04:40
|

|
you’re set on destroying yourself
listen to the words that you say
shouting it from the rooftops
it seems the whole world has gone away
the risk i take to be your man
i can’t take to save your life
high above the rooftops no
you can take your life tonight
it’s so cold
freeze your soul
planes fly low
dear god, no
it’s a sign
take the step and you don’t fall
float away we don’t care much at all
rise above and grab the lights
it burns your head, you’re filled with spikes
look below we are ants you can crush
one by one they are all meaningless
it burns your eyes it burns your eyes
what have you done
it burns us all
it’s all undone.
take down the sun

Dead Pixel

You're like a dead pixel
I never see the full picture
You're like a dead pixel
I can't keep up with your misery
What do you want from me?
I left my life behind for this?
You're too far gone, you're always high.
The pain grows inside
I'll just jump from this speeding car
And leave you on your way.
I think we met each other in a bad year.
I've always dealt with your shit
But now we are so low.
Has it ever been so dark?
Without the orange glow of city lights
Look up to the desert sky
I'm lost with you and I'm lost without you
It's not enough to throw it away
Just enough to drive me insane
I'll try to make it all okay
Just so you know, i don't care at all.

You Are a Child
05:07

hold me tight
don't let go
it seems tonight
i want it to end, right now.
my feet are old
my eyes are old
you are young, again.
my body has failed
my soul is frail
it's my time to be young again
you are young, again.

The Him
06:19

|
Some days you waste your life away
These times I find no words to say
A crime I once committed filled me
Too much of heaven's eyes I saw through
Only when meanings have no reason
They're taken beyond your sense of right (and wrong)
Small boy kneels, wandering in a great hall
He pays pennance to the air above him
White circles, black lines surround me
Reborn, so plain my eyes see
This is the reason that I came here
To be so near to such a person
I'm so tired, I'm so tired
