We'll Be Ok

Look how my garden blossoms underneath this shady tree
delicate spectacles they're budding to impress their queen
tending to the details, intricately my precision for your plead
could it be that I am lacking sense of your abilities
My petals wait to unfold, concealed are secrets
but when they open up, unveiled my forfeits
I'll finish the work subdued, and I'm able to see right through, and it's safe to say, we're all afraid, cause nothing stays the same
What is our next move along these piles of proof
floating around, and around
I'm casting complications out into the tranquil seas
watching them scatter softly drifting steady then they sink, when the skies are stirring it's my signal that I've caught your lease, then rains pour down and wash away the resolutions I've tried to keep
I'll finish the work subdued, and I'm able to see right through, and it's safe to say that we're all afraid
I'll finish the work subdued, and I'm able to see right through, and it's safe to say we'll be okay, but nothing stays the same, nothing stays the same

This Old Wall
03:45

I'm under the influence of my elation
and weighed down by comfort warming the night
I've caught you like a fever
the illness travels on to mend my heartaches
it's breaking down this wall and shaking me free
at last I'm free, you've lit the dark and hollowed space between my shaded dreams
The more I rely on someone to give my affection
the more I can feel it's taking me in it's too late to turn back
I'll stick to where I'm headed and it's by your side
I'll follow on because it's shaking me free
at last I'm free, you've lit the dark and hollowed space between my shaded dreams
I'll stick to where I'm headed and it's by your side,
I'll follow on because you already have led me far away from that dismal place behind that old wall, it's fallen down and shaking me free
at last I'm free, you've lit the dark and hollowed space between my shaded dreams
this old wall is falling down, falling down, I'll follow on with speed
this old wall is falling down, falling down, I'll follow on with speed

Don't Thank Me
02:40
|
|||
|
the candles lit upon this cake are failing to oblige
these wishes that we often make dissolve until they die
this poor me state of mind does no one good
it's cases much like this that I despise
Don't thank me, it should be you
that's taking my gratitude
it's getting easier to admit when I'm wrong
Once lonely I couldn't recognize my apathetic tune
it drowned out the peaceful tones of white, to shades of somber hues
but that was the old me, I've been revived
the pulling of this stubborn will of mine
Don't thank me, it should be you
that's taking my gratitude
it's getting easier to admit when I'm wrong

The Portions You Leave
04:11
|

|
Give up to what's not improving
those hand that take and deliver
with all the finished remains you have sold me
it's gone, the taste of my glory and now replaced
by my hunger, withering down by your unsought intrusion
when my needs aren't fulfilled by keeping...
the force in me to a steady lull
silencing me, as I'm gaining on the portions you leave
feed my ill devotion, take your best shot at freeing a force that loves the thrill
This part I hate when we're choosing by chance less fate
and I'm losing vision of how to surpass this endeavor
so now the stakes are much higher because involved
are desires and our behaviors conclude the illusion of clean release, when it's bringing...
the force in me to a steady lull
silencing me, as I'm gaining on the portions you leave
feed my ill devotion, take your best shot at freeing a force that loves the thrill
the past is set by strategic moves that are best for the present, and now the rest proves my humbled defense
summons inside...
the force in me to a steady lull
silencing me, as I'm gaining on the portions you leave
feed my ill devotion, take your best shot at freeing a force that loves the thrill

Try

I remember everything you said
the echoes in my head won't die
I believed every word was true
I was as worthless as I lie
save your petty excuse, I was only a child too
so go ahead and try to break my bones with all your
sticks and stones, they'll never hurt me
and all your clever names and funny games
won't leave me bleeding and helpless anymore
I tried to make sense out of your hate
your heart was darker than my skin
my eyes became the butt of every joke
to you and all your friends
I thought you'd grown up by now
but you're the same old playground bully
so go ahead and try to break my bones with all your
sticks and stones, they'll never hurt me
and all your clever names and funny games
won't leave me bleeding and helpless anymore
you can't control how I see myself
you are forever trapped and I am free
so go ahead and try to break my bones with all your
sticks and stones, they'll never hurt me
and all your clever names and funny games
won't leave me bleeding and helpless anymore
I remember everything you said
it was as worthless as a lie
you have no excuses anymore
why did I even try
