I took a walk in your shadow
You couldn't care less
You didn't even know i was there, i was there
You took my pictures down
You couldnt bare to look at me
But we know how it ends
And it's okay with me
I'll be haunting you
And you'll be spooked all by yourself
Im a ghost and you know
Im roaming through those walls
that you built, long ago to keep you safe and warm
But i'll be where you are, I wont be very far
You shattered every memory with vanity and fear
A promise should be held close, with passion and care
You can't run away, when im the air you breathe
You know
I'll be haunting you
And you wont be able to stop your legs from shaking
Echoes haunt when nothing else can reach you
Echoes haunt to touch your heart
so you wont have to look at me

Lights Out

You caved in, that house of glass is now your home
You left love waiting, empty handed by the door, never will return
Now your lost in a stare, your lost in those eyes
Find a way, touch me inside
When the lights go out, your heart fades to grey
It goes beyond the pale and nothing stays the same
And who’s to blame, our friends and father all share the same contempt
They wore the same name
Our prayers reaching, only to the ceiling, when your heart is not believing
So wear your crown king of pride, king of all who's fallen down
When the lights go out your heart turns away,
The wax it becomes dry and it covers
When the lights go out your heart turns away
The wax it becomes dry and covers up the shame
We followed Alison into the belly of the hole you never realized how deep that Hurt would go
When the lights go out, the saints fall away,
We find sweet the bitter taste that long ago
When the lights go out, the saints fall away
We find sweet the bitter taste that long ago seemed so strange

This is Where the sidewalk Ends
The road most traveled down my friend
We've sown a good seed, and fought a good fight
And now its time to lay out heads down for the night
So lay me down
As you lay me down, in pastures of green
Keep me on my back, stifle me
As you lay me down, in pastures of green
Hold me just a little longer, till I fall asleep
This is where your word divides heart from soul flesh from bone
This is where you tore me down to make me whole
This is where we come home
This is where we come home
As you lay me down in pastures of green
Im looking in your eyes, im trying to find peace
As you lay me you taught me long ago
Hold close to stillness, and fear will let you go

You wont see our faces anymore
There's nothing here for me and you
Loves white noise has found a way to fill that void
The emptiness is finally through
All those superstitions, masked our heart condition
A Generation without a vision
Water high and hell will shake tonight
We wont go silent, there's a fire inside
Wake the Dead
Tonight we wont sleep
I wont be a victim anymore
You know you had the sweetest lines
I plaid the part and wore the shame with pride
You know you were the best in lies
All of my excuses for the pain and failure
Are do to my existence and im obliged to leave here
We've been living half to death

Don't you dare look at me that way
Those lips are distant and those eyes a memory
Words are cold when conversation is one way,
I'll chase you down if you run away
Say you'll be there
Say this is true
When the feeling is gone, and the moment is over
Tell me there's more, that I've found in you
When the feeling is gone, and the moment is over
Let me hold you for a while,
I want to remember what it felt like to smile
They say we're doing fine but I know we're beggars in the longest of lines
You entertain me
With your wax wings
(Icarus did you know or did you lie
Because we fell to earth swallowed by the sea )

Once Removed
03:48
|

|
Grafted into something Beautiful tonight
Pulled out of miserable despite
My kicking screaming cries, and we're fine
We're doing fine
Pulled from a wreckage, some ships will never fly
Give into loves embrace tonight
Come a litter closer, we'll hold each other tight
And we're fine
We'll be just fine
How do you feel tonight
(He'll be holding you)
(You'll be better off tonight)
(He'll be holding you)
The Stars are calling
You undiscovered and used
You feel torn apart and confused
But you and me we're once removed tonight
We'll be alright

Fade

Patience is yours waiting on a calloused heart like mine
words are choice they reach few and far between the lines
I would offer you my hand, but they’re bracing me for my fall
(on our own from here, since when I cant recall)
I’ve been needing you here, as long as I recall
Oh, you’re still haunting all the empty spaces in between my empty places
Fade you’re fading
Right before my eyes you disappear
You’re fading
This lofty mind you bring me down to earth
She carried me away in the arms of lies
Subtle smile and cigarette now she’s standing in your way
And everything I am, is everything I blame
Oh, she became a weakness of mine, taste those rouge lips
Drank her red wine
Oh the way your memory moves inside
Oh the way she moved
Oh the way your memory moves inside me
Oh how she moved
