I don't ever wanna let you down
(But you can't keep doing this to me)
Whoa! It makes me cringe
The way you do it for you, and I,
I do it for my friends
You've got the substance
But you're giving nothing to make amends
Just know this isn't for me
Inspiration. I need you now to come through
Congratulations. I'm lost again so thank you
I'm only getting older the end is near I feel it
I suffer from delusions.
My second lapse of reason
If only once my intellect paralleled my craftsmanship
I'd forge the weight of my conscience to be lighter than most
Instead of feeling sorry i'd break my heart to show me
And you and us and everyone
True inspiration

How do you fit in when you're left out of every joke?
I'm always the punchline
I'm writing again: tragedy
Three lines at a time your
bad habits don't shadow the good
Step into the light
And show me what goodness should look like
If I could fix you I would and oh how I'd miss you
That's no one but me at your door
Show me what friends are for
I'm right here and I'm never leaving
is what you would say
Awaiting the day of your return
I want to pick you up in spite of your ways
I'd love to pick you up but you're just too busy
If you could squeeze me in
until your thoughts passed through
then you would leave me in utter shock
I know you know so can we just agree to agree
that I'm always right
and you might learn a thing or two
I want you to pick me up
in spite of my ways
I love you so pick me up
or am I too late?
Are you on your way?
I've been waiting for days
I will not complain
I would wait for years

In this dream the afterglow
Time is coming 'round
To lose my inhibitions
And surrender to the sound
I rot, I grow
Turn into the wind
Dense undergrowth is beckoning me
To follow the trail in
Healing light surrounds me
Shadows twist and turn away
The rivers flow out of my heart
And I'm here to stay
And I am born again
Open your eyes free from your pride
Believe in beauty more than I
You are the hope designed to doubt
But all your fears: just wash them out

I won't let you go away
I kind of wanna watch you survive today
What happened to us?
Where did we go wrong?
I can't hear the sound of hope in your voice anymore
Where did it go? Where did it go?
Listen to the streets
Listen to your heart
This is human life
Don't let us fall apart
(Where did it go?)
I can't hear the sound of your voice

In Flight

I followed the winding case into a skeletal embrace
Left me with nothing but the lingering of this place
Swing swing through the trees that have surrounded me and
Watch watch the water that you found astounding
How did the distance ever let you find me?
But now it's just the distance that is so binding
Breathe in the smokescreen that clouds my mind away
As I sit and wonder why the time is still passing me
All of the planets had alligned when you alligned with me
Now it's just a mess and the stars are blinding me, me, me
You always stray and I always make time to stay
Even for a second cause you make my entire day
Blue skies now turn to gray as the water washes over me
And it kinda feels like its happening just in spite of me
Oh Swing swing, swing swing through the trees

I think all you think I am is second rate
I think you should look into the mirror
Collapse
Collapse
Collapse
Bricks and empty faces
I fall between the spaces
Between the lines
of the phrases you are speaking
Your voice, I hear it weaken
Or is it mine?
Stand up and face your fears
I stand up and face my fears

Count Me In

I am on to you
You're just a fawn to me
I'm just a pawn to you
How I'm drawn to you
With such artistry
Or you saw through me
My unpredictability
Swinging through the trees
Where our spirits meet
Whatever sets us free
And we could go so far
On optimistic attitude
I fell asleep with angels
And woke up next to you
And I'm counting backwards from
Ten million infinity
Whatever's closest to the end
It's my only hope won't you count me in
From where I must begin
This is the end of something old
This is the start of something new
Altruistic point of view
Instead of focusing on me
Obligatory fortitude
I am focusing on you
