Too many people We are alone in this darkened room Smoke swirls above my head Mould fights for life on the ceiling And I feel They can hear my every thought in here Now I can hear, they whisper in my ears again When I close my eyes I see nothing from before Standing below the blackened moss that bleeds from every other home around me In a sea of blue tiles I stand here alone with only a suitcase And I have lost my home People here they disappear The forgotten shout but no one hears Shibuya calls again A sea of faces. But again, I am alone In the busiest of places Now I can hear, they whisper in my ears again When I close my eyes I see nothing from before Standing below the blackened moss that bleeds from every other home around me In a sea of blue tiles I stand here alone with only a suitcase And I have lost my home

Sometimes I think things No one should The Unforgiving Current Sweeping me away From the light that illuminates Everything I've ever known And I ask myself Who should I believe? I stand here alone Beneath the shadow of all things And I feel so small A teenage ghost laughs in the distance Oh how you've let us down he says Oh how you've changed Now and then I try To drown myself in you It's the only thing That even moves me anymore When I'm sailing through The current works against me It's the only thing That even moves me anymore Sometimes I say things I didn't think I could The heavy fog around me Clouding my head And in the light of a new day Beneath the power lines I hear you say Everything is different And who am I to disagree

Dreaming 04:28
Dark red painted lips Won't you walk me home Look me in the eyes and tell me That you don't care about The things I say or anything I do I hope you know I don't want to dream anymore It makes it harder to live I don't want to dream anymore It makes it harder to live with it Tonight the wind it sings Another lonely song Can't make out the words It haunts me And in this bar I am Alone and I'm alive for just one night But when I'm home I don't want to dream anymore It makes it harder to live I don't want to dream anymore It makes it harder to live with it

Today the sun leaks through The fabric covering my eyes Shining on my face Reminds me what I'm missing But it's you I think of I check my phone to see If anyones still out there An unfamiliar face Sanders around this town Sut It's you I think of And it's me Sinking further away from you Into the sea, can't you help me And what if everything The old and new Dissolves with you And what if everything I worked towards Dissolves into nothing Another piece of me Slips away before my eyes Everyone I know sleeps while I'm awake Is it me they dream of? Or are they just sinking further Away from me silently Will they wait for me? And what if everything The old and new Dissolves with you And what if everything I worked towards Dissolves into nothing

Vanessa 04:34
Dying flowers An unmade bed A closet full of summer clothes That keep you near to me And when I'm stuck In this unholy place I picture you in my holy sweater Peaking through And nothings real when I'm around you When I fade away You bring me back to the surface And when I go I'll be just one call away from you We're never truly apart I'm always one call away from you Endless hours Working late I count the time until you return And my day starts again Hopeless lovers We never choose There's nothing outside this place That's more than here with you And nothings real when I'm around you When I fade away You bring me back to the surface And when I go I'll be just one call away from you We're never truly apart I'm always one call away from you

Trust 05:03
You're more inclined, with my history To focus more on what went wrong But don't you ever wonder What I think about when you're not there In time you'll find it doesn't work for me It doesn't make me who I am Trying to hide under The excuse that it repeats itself It's not fair Don't let it pull you under Just think about when I'm no longer there No longer there Don't let it pull you under Don't let the time we have just fade away Fade away You must decline any fantasies That give you reason to belong And now I guess you wonder What is left for you when I'm not there Don't despair Don't let it pull you under Just think about when I'm no longer there No longer there Don't let it pull you under Don't let the time we have just fade away Fade away

Well I don't mind the end you surely hold Cause I already know About the threats you pose But this time I know what it's like to be used I'll just throw you away Burning out at last I say This time I quit A weakened flame closes in on you Only familiar shame Can come from meeting you No more will I ever call your name As the withdrawal takes my breath I hold onto what's left of you and I inhale You already know, so just let go (You know what is coming next)

Mother 03:03
Because of you I am Inclined to say why I owe this all to you All this time you stand by And even when I fall into despair I never doubt how much you really care And I tell you all the time And I know you listen But I'll be there too anytime Sometimes you say you're sorry But it's fine the faults mine I couldn't do the same You worked hard and It paid off And even when it seems that I'm not there It should be obvious how much I care And I tell you all the time And I know you listen But I'll be there too anytime

Acting 03:00
Tonight the wind it sings a lonely song Unlikely friends they'll never meet This act is ending soon And the narrative is strange enough it's far too much for me And she can't watch anymore It's not the same as it was before Morning washes us ashore This is it for you I'm sure She thinks that time itself is equal to The knowledge gained I disagree And I won't keep wasting time wandering If I've become something I hate Oh no I won't And she can't watch anymore It's not the same as it was before Morning washes us ashore This is it for you I'm sure And maybe one day I'll let you into my head It's not as easy as you think
