1.
Mercury 03:00
You go Driving circles Or drowning down Again You go Silver shimmer Need a revelation Silver haze burns red We are Bordering zeroes Caught up On our own selves
2.
Butch Queen 03:40
If this is what I am Just let my body go that way 'Cause I don't mind to die trying To make some sense of my desires Babies fighting to survive The most violent divide In and out of falling skies Anorexic in our smile And you should dare to walk our silence The distance that we paved It's not a tamed one The parts you'd like to know Just treat them as if they're your own Coffins, class rooms and nothing in between But empty photographs of me We better not Better not break it We've been warned
3.
When we wake up Sometimes bursting words collide And we know just what to say Yet we stand silent And it's alright I know you don't mean to be cruel But I wish that I could shine Bright enough to give you Everything that you need It's just that I keep messing with my foolish sense of pride If I could take what it means Instead of what it seems Well, then I'm guessing everything we'll be just fine It's been some time And I don't know about the rest But I know how I feel And I'm staying here Sharing secrets Even making you upset Being wrong about being right Trying just to give you Everything... 'Cause I can't give up on you Tear these toxic walls around us It just takes a little time To rearrange
4.
Is it the time to tell It doesn't matter anyway And since we're both walking on ice Just trip and slide Anytime but now Anywhere but here Anyway you say it's real Your calling out's so rude It's so much better to stay cool We outline the size and the depth Of your distress It's all in your head
5.
Savory 03:55
Hey angel, consider your position Framed to be consumed Savory Savoring your sympathy Hey angel, fly over and bless me See you feign surprise That I'm all eyes And you're all you need to be Hey angel, whatever position We consider fit to put you in You'll protest your complicity Easy now One hand will wash the other One hand will wash the other Hey angel, fly over and bless me See you feign surprise But I'm all eyes And we're all we need to be, need to be Easy now One hand will wash the other One hand will wash the other
6.
I guess there was fire on the streets But I can't remember much Those days are gone and I've been out of touch And if we are trying to succeed Well, I don't know what it means We're just wiping tears 'Cause we try and we try But we're hiding what we've got inside And enough is enough 'Cause it's tearing me apart And if all the characters are wrong Then I guess I'm not the one The end is near, my friend, you've got to fall And when we see colors turn to gold And we're moving much too slow We are cursed to crawl
7.
Summer Sky 02:05
Leaving this trail Of nothing to shine for Overexposed To my own disruptions And I look up to The summer sky Wondering if I'll ever try To break these walls Or if I'll just die inside Learn and regret Fear for the loss, fear for the gain A cycle that chokes A burden away from myself
8.
I am a desert now I am a plain I am invisible Just another winter's day I am the games we play I am ok These are extensions Of the weight of the world If I could be What's in between To rest my head Motionless and out of sound I am the sleepless talks On starry nights The woods under the light Of the moon on summertime A thousand furry tales Before the rain Battle the extensions Of the weight of the world In waves of green Shaping out the shapeless Searching for a way to disappear Or a shelter from the fear Of this whole mess Was all in vain?
9.
I'm wearing out of you I'm wearing out of your double standard morale I'm wearing out of your self-righteous hands I'm wearing out of vultures in disguise I'm wearing out of mindlessly embracing the tide I'm wearing out of you I'm wearing out of books that you never read I'm wearing out of boots just stomping my head I'm wearing out of whinings you haven't earned I'm wearing out of battles not in my name Wearing out of you
10.
Double Me 04:16
Promise you won't break me If you ever catch me Smiling without irony Or sadness in my eyes Restless enemy Behind my eyes There's a shadow burning bright She grabs my neck Pressing with the softest hands Always there to lend me Help to lose myself Trapped inside the age of no age Old and overrated Ready to let go
11.
Chances are so sad and lonely Chances are that we are wrong Chances leading us to nowhere Chances falling from our souls I get on my nerves Shouting questions to myself I fade wide awake Holding on for brighter days Chances burning down the hallway Chances are we could be strong Chances fell asleep and drowning In the pool of our hopes
12.
No, it's not what we meant to say We don’t really love each other What happens when the summer’s over? How long before distance becomes a chore? I'm approaching with great, great trepidation I hope you’ll understand Before you speak think about what you're trying to say Who else is there to blame for miscommunication? You're getting caught up in the excitement You making promises you can’t keep You need to leave all your options open Too much momentum This room feels like it's going to explode Too many angles Too many factors to cover Waiting for signal You're searching for network You have to fight to stay in control of the situation Anxiety, Anxiety you give me no mercy Grind my teeth smooth and flat in my sleep We took some pills to calm us down Then we needed help to come back up Just trying to stay in control of the situation Too much momentum This room feels like it's going to explode Too many angles Too many factors to cover Waiting for signal You're searching for network You have to fight to stay in control of the situation They fall apart so easily Too much momentum This room feels like it's going to explode Too many angles Too many factors to cover Waiting for signal You're searching for network You have to fight to stay in control You have to fight to stay in control No, you don’t have to fight to stay in control of the situation
