5. The Notes Of My Reflection

[Instrumental]

6. A Short Walk Down A Long Hallway

Let me be the one to breath.
I bathed in mud to wash away the dirt.
Blaming you for all that hurt.
I let you down and soaked up the lies.
But you're the one that opened my eyes.
I let it go and dropped to my knees.
For your forgiveness I'm begging you please.
Cos I broke down and soaked up the lies.
You're still the one that opened my eyes.
Let me be the one to breath.
How did you find me?
When I was layin so low.
I've been hiding.
I've been breeding.
Disgust. Disgrace.
You'll slap that look right off of my face.
I'll play god. I'll play dead.
You'll be the one to shoot me in the head.
And I'm waiting and I'm wanting.
Still hating. Still haunting.
Disbelief and denial.
You're the one that put me on trial.
And I'll try and find out why all these things leave me in doubt.
But this time I'm wrong.
Let it go. Let it out.
And I'll find you. And I'll touch you.
And I'll see you. And I'll trust you.
I've been wanting.
I've been craving.
All these thoughts are real and I'm shaking.
So cover me in this dirt.
Bury me with all that's hurt.
What luck have I found?
My head spins round and round.
I found the feel. I found the flow.
I found what I've been looking for.
I've been wanting.
I've been craving.
All these thoughts are real and I'm shaking.
So cover me in this dirt.
Bury me with all that's hurt.

7. The Critic

Contemplation.
Revelation.
You've tried to bury us with pure hatred.
Cos what you think and what you say is loud
so start eating that shit we're gonna feed you now.
I can't believe that you think you're right
when everything that you say comes from out of spit.
So keep living off that shit you wrote.
Say it again and again and again I'm gunna slit your throat.
You're not the only one alone here.
I see names without faces and the faces hid in fear.
Have you felt humility?
Insanity.
It'll drive you crazy so hey you big critic.
Come and get it.
You won't admit it but you'll spit it out.
And you're the one with the scapegoat.
And it's shameful.
You should be hiding your face now.
You'll take a swim and you'll take a dive
and when you're found facedown will you be alive?
You think that you can be heard in your own little world.
You think that you have the time to be writing those lies.
And you all hide your face so I can't see you smile.
Contemplation.
Revelation.
You've tried to bury us with pure hatred.
Cos what you think and what you say is loud
so start eating that shit we're gonna feed you now.
Have you felt humility?
Insanity.
It'll drive you crazy you'll take a swim and you'll take a dive
and when you're found facedown will you be alive?
Can you? Will you?
Keep it down?
I can see why you're jealous now.
The lights shine on us and your lights shut down.
In a sweat you break.
As we take stage: in your mouth is a 12 gauge.
Why don't you pull the trigger.
Or shut up before your head gets bigger.
I think it's time for you to come clean.
So come clean.
Before your envy bleeds blood green.
Misery is placed and I'm talking to you.
Are you feeling alone?
Your tragedy comes son.
Are you feeling alone?
Because your words at you?

8. Gorgeous

One whisper from your breath is all I hear.
One gaze of deep green eyes is all I see.
We don't need to meet to know.
You're all the same to me I hope.
One touch of fingertips is all I feel.
One kiss from your sweet lips is all I taste.
We don't need to meet to know.
You're all the same to me I hope.
One scorn from all your wrath is all I need.
To know of your typicality.
We don't need to meet to know.
You're all the same to me I hope.

9. You Broke Like Glass

Can I get away?
Get away from you.
Cos your broken edge is what told the truth.
Standing: in the corner you start facing the wall alone.
Shaking: you crawl away.
But by now you've been so consume.
You gave it up for a dirty dime a dozen now you're layin in the corner so lonely.
Locked up. Locked down.
So down and out.
I'm watchin you die slowly.
Standing: in the corner you start facing the wall alone.
Shaking: you crawl away.
But by now you've been so consumed.
Can I get away?
Get away from you.
Cos your broken edge is what's killing you.
And I choke at the sight of you.
And I choke.
Yeah you're turning blue.
Do you feel fine now?
Can I get away?
Get away from you.
Cos your broken edge is what's killing you.
Do you feel fine now?
And I choke at the sight of you.
And I choke.
Yeah you're turning blue.

10. In The Closet

What do you want them all to see?
A blind man with blind faith is he your fuckin enemy?
All he wants to do is survive this painful cancer.
You should be looking for the answer now.
And as the silence breaks.
Give him what he can take.
And he finds it hard to be alone.
And as the silence breaks give him what he can take: a way out.
Why don't you set it aside cos he's got nothing to hide you just put him down.
And as the silence breaks give him what he can take: no way out.
He hides behind the door.
You've got it locked and bolted down.
Cant' see behind the door.
Come out. Come out. Come out.
It's time to show the world.
God gave you wings to fly.
So fly the fuck away.
Come out. Come out. Come out.
And Jesus saves.
God gave you wings to fly.
And as the silence breaks.
Give him what he can take:. A way out.
Why don't you set it aside
cos he's got nothing to hid you just put him down Go!
What do you want them all to see?
A blind man with blind faith is he your fuckin enemy?
Come out. Come out. Come out.

11. Sonic Death Monkey

Red lights gleaming screaming.
You entice this time.
Can't you see I'm teething?
Bleeding from inside.
For you I will not lust.
For you I will not bust.
Which way should I go?
Or should I know.
I can't take it back.
I don't want it back.
For you I will not lust for you I will not bust.
So lay me down.
So I can find my peace now.
So lay me down.
Let me be at ease this time.
So lay me down.
Can't stop the way I feel this time this cancer's eating me inside.
Can't stop the way I feel this time this cancer's eating me alive.
For now I'll weep and wallow.
Cos inside I feel so hollow.
Make me out.
Take me out.
Make me out.
To be the one.

12. There Is Always

[Instrumental]

13. Love In Autumn

I remember when things just weren't the same.
My life went up in smoke.
The end came crashing down on me.
Just when I found this piece of sympathy.
You turned your back.
Walked away after the eulogy.
Can I touch your lips?
Feel the motion of your kiss?
I remember when I first saw your face.
You took my breath away and left without a trace.
So here I stand empty handed point of view.
I took some time.
The search is up and I found you.
Can I touch your lips.
Feel the motion of your kiss?
Where did you go?
It's not the distance keeping you from seeing me.
It ain't the weather changing minds or changing dreams.
It's not the sight of you when I stepped off the plane.
I think that things will be much better off this way.
And when my seasons change:
I might have to pray for rain.
Now that I've found you, you're not leaving me.
Please stay right by my side.
I'll give you everything.
There she goes.
There she goes with me.
Another lonely winter I don't think we'll see.
Where did you go?
