Juxtaposed
The life we chose
You're resilient, but are we that different?
I will try to be whole
I will try to be whole again
I spent a fortnight pushing you away (pushing you away)
I turned a blind eye and kept along the sway (kept along the sway)
My bones are pale white, yours turned to grey (yours have turned to grey)
I watched the sentiment slowly decay
Capture dreams
Fear the unknown
I will try to be as pure as a disease
I will try to be whole
I will try to be whole again
I spent a fortnight pushing you away (pushing you away)
I turned a blind eye and kept along the sway (kept along the sway)
My bones are pale white, yours turned to grey (yours have turned to grey)
I watched the sentiment slowly decay
I spent a fortnight pushing you away (pushing you away)
I turned a blind eye and kept along the sway (kept along the sway)
My bones are pale white, yours turned to grey (yours have turned to grey)
I watched the sentiment slowly decay
I've spent so long loving you
That I forgot to love myself
I will cease to exist
In every movement made
I will not break

Full Sight

These flaccid walls, these flaccid walls
(Are) Almost as bad as writers block
But it's okay, it's going to be okay...okay
And I lie, and I lie it brings me to full sight
Oh it's coming fast, so fast
And I lie, and I lie it's give to take
No, it's solely theft, solely theft...but I try...
It's okay
It's going to be okay
(Oh) There's a million why's and way's to see this through
Like the milky way, like our space
It's okay
And I lie, and I lie it brings me to full sight
Oh it's coming fast, so fast
And I lie, and I lie it's give to take
No, it's solely theft, solely theft...but I try...
It's okay, it's going to be okay
Before you reach the cloud that's labeled "No Fly Zone"
It's okay
...And I waste my nights
It's okay, it's going to be okay..
And I lie, and I lie it brings me to full sight
Oh it's coming fast, so fast
And I lie, and I lie it's give to take
No, it's solely theft, solely theft...but I try...

I've got no sense of time, maybe I should have turned back when
I let the cracks on the ice give way.
But would you still be here today? Yeah, today.
Oh, you're hair has changed along with every new season
And the disdain in your voice made everything worse
But all joking aside, your name left the sweetest taste on my tongue.
I'm getting bored, I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored, I'm getting bored
Cause I got no sense of time
Yeah, I'm getting bored
Put me in a place you'll never forget
Not saying goodbye was my only regret
You were worried about you and I
for too long, yeah for too long
I'm getting bored, I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored, I'm getting bored
Cause I got no sense of time
Yeah, I'm getting bored
If I had to keep one memory
Please God let it be this one
Cause I got no sense of time
I got no sense of time.

Rest
04:52

Held against the wall
Feeling three feet tall
She closes her eyes and dreams of the man she wed
He goes to clench his fists
All the years that she's missed
A mother watching her children as they fed
Where did the time go
Did it die along with her smile
Did it wash away all the hopes that she had
Oh, she's next door
Begging and pleading and covered in sores
I can't recall when she smiled last
Oh, she'll take no more
Of him passing out on the floor
She needs a little bit of rest
Waiting for the train
Words can not explain
Thirty-four years of her life down the drain
Now she won't miss it
The fire has been lit
The passion for life and love has come back again
Where did she go?
I heard she walked out of the door
Oh, she's happy again
And she's free
Oh, she's next door
Begging and pleading and covered in sores
I can't recall when she smiled last
Oh, she'll take no more
Of him passing out on the floor
She needs a little bit of rest
Oh, she ain't next door
No more begging and pleading there's no more sores
Making him smile was a thing of the past
Oh, she'll take no more
No more picking him up off the floor
She found her, she found her happiness

All my precious moments
Gone away, away
My veins will soon part ways
If they don't learn to share my frame
I know I'm vile, and I know I'm wrong
But I've been this way for too long
I'll carry my savoury end game
And I floated out on the mountains
Floated out from the streets, yea
Far from the lights of the city
It's you, or it's me
It's me
I want a straw hut
An open plain
With the breeze and smoke of the day
With sharpened junipers, gravels, salts, and hays
With air that shares the suns rays
A colored space with no grey
I will watch the leaves fall
Everyday
And I floated out on the mountains
Floated out from the streets, yea
Far from the lights of the city
It's you, or it's me
It's me
And I floated out on the mountains
Floated out from the streets, yea
Far from the lights of the city
It's you, or it's me
It's me (x2)
It's you, or it's me
It's you, or it's me
It's you, or it's me
It's me.....

Save Me
04:34

I'm the man, I'm the beast
I'm the one who keeps the peace
There's still time to make your escape
So come around and bring the key
Killing time before we stumble
Tripping over our two feet
I hear the sounds in the distance
Is anyone out there
Please, save me (x2)
I am leaking and alone
I am draining but not as a whole
This whole world
This whole scene
The clock hands are gone and I'm still not free
Killing time before we stumble
Tripping over our two feet
I hear the sounds in the distance
Is anyone out there
Please, save me
Killing time before we stumble
Tripping over our two feet
I hear the sounds in the distance
Is anyone out there
Please, save me
Is anyone out there
Please, save me
Tripping over our two feet
I hear the sounds in the distance
Is anyone out there
Please, save me

You will call
Mistake me for a prayer
Take me in your favour
Too many have called
Nobody's listened
They all fell down
Too many notions
All the time
Time
Like a prayer, there's too many notions
Like they say, it will cause commotion
Like they say, there's too many notions
But you were not there
I'm just like you
It caused much despair
Time
Like a prayer, there's too many notions
Like they say, it will cause commotion
Like they say, there's too many notions
The air I breathe
The city it sleeps
But it won't stop
No man can be here anymore
Anymore...
Time
Like a prayer, there's too many notions
Like they say, it will cause commotion
Like, they say there's too many notions
Weep for the sun, and weep for the ocean
They can't be bought, but they can be risen
In time..
In time...
In time...
In time...

Vellore

It was a cold and windy autumn day
Thinking of all the words to say
Counting down the methods of trying to get closer...closer
I stumbled on a walk that night
Thinking of all the stupid fights
Trying to figure where all of this went wrong, where it went wrong
The days ran shorter
The nights drove longer
The sun had hit the ground and reflected off all the light
Just sit down on this bench
While I try to figure out something, to try and make amends
Grab my hand, grab my hand
It was once a pretty picture, but now it seems to be looking quite bland
Things aren't always what they seem
Not everything is a miracle or dream
Stay with me and everything will be alright
Everything will be just...
Fine
I'm alright
The tears in your eyes
The compensation of this is making up for lost time
Let me go
Let me go
I need to find my way back home...
I need to find myself back home
I need to find myself back home
Walk away
Don't you stray
I never want to hear you at my door
Back to Vellore...
Back to Vellore....
Back to Vellore....
