Every Week 02:46
The dogs are asleep Chasing wolves away. I'm on my feet Before the sun comes up today. What do I need? You will ask me If I ever sleep You will ask me The same thing every week. We are not built like walls To hold up structures, to be the glue. I wanna do it all I wanna let go and remember you. Don't tell me what I lose. You will ask me If I ever sleep You will ask me The same thing every week.

Old Wounds 03:08
You are wheeling down The same roads I thought You had left by now Given the damage they've caused. I don't see it all But I see a lot And you're caught in the "here and now" I see far beyond. You wanted it all, It still wasn't enough, So when will that stop? Given the damage they've caused. Old wounds hesitate They cut through, they time-travel Do you see your mistakes? Can you feel them unravel? Given the damage they've caused. It's an every-day-collapsing into What we should not do. Given the damage they've caused. You are wheeling down The same roads I thought You had left by now.

Parts 03:06
Sawed you off in the middle of the night. You were always on my mind Even when you didn't try. That's the price we pay for being so devout; Living in the precious memory of now. I know you will never see it like I do How can I expect you to? Come to me like a distant haunting Like some place I have never really been. Phantom limb equipped with feelings so precise. Almost believed you were exactly what you wanted me to see. I know you will never feel it like I do How can I expect you to? These are the parts of me I give to you.
4.
Itching 03:35
After midnight and before sunrise I get so hungry. It's a cold one, always a cold one When you're not around me. Like a dog at the window I am always searching. My itching youth is Countlessly blindsided And I am too open. It's a strange one, always a strange one When I'm left this hopeless. Like a dog at the window Like the sting you left me You're not real, you're just a shadow But still I'm searching.
5.
Bad Reaction 01:46
I am barely trying, You've got your feet on the ground You're in my head now. I can memorize you If you're not even there You could be anywhere. Can you tell? Oh, it's such a bother Waking up to the sound Of you not around. Always second guessing Always over-stressing out About what's gone now. Can you tell? I wont tell if you wont tell. And every bad reaction makes me feel like I am not the one you're thinking of.
6.
You know me, I am still Your rock in the water-- Only chipping slightly. Flood or drought, Receded doubt. Don't be fooled by failure It wont ever matter. Just say you're always on my side And everything will melt away. What was it that made me loose myself in you, And then made me reconsider? It rushed past before I had time to even grab it. I'll try to remember. Just say you'll always be around And everything will pass away.
7.
Unpronounced 02:37
Middle of summer, Fireworks going off, I heard your wonder, I saw it all. I just can't relax, As hard as I try. When the dogs bark at shadows, They get that look in their eyes. Hungry for something they'll never find. Could there be no other way? Skin gets so heavy, Feeling your ghost all around. Just when I'm floating on empty It brings me back to the ground. We'll go unpronounced, Shifting on all fours, Scratching names into pavement, Crawling through open doors. Hungry for something we'll never find. Could there be some other way?
8.
Thomas 03:23
This net gets thin and wide You're there where the visions reside You know whats up with me We've felt the slow leaking of time Moments and change Unforeseeable restraints It must be strange to be The one who stays the same An attempt to revisit the pull Of drying blood and bottles You sat unmoved and breathing In all of the thick loneliness But it's all the same When goodness and evil intertwine We know of the past and Still repeat it all the time.
9.
Unholy island, soft buzz of the sun radiates. Here is a rock they thought they gave you, But your's is an uncharted fate. Treat the stars like a road when you have trouble letting go. Wondrous, how they found you: Sun-bleached and lungs all full of sand. There are worlds yet to discover Inside that one you have there in your hand. Don't go back once you've left, you'll have time to catch your breath. There will be light, there will be rain To come and wash it all away. Heavy hands, withholding heart, It was over before it even got to start. Unholy island.
10.
Forgiveness 04:52
I watched you walk away Convinced that it wasn't the same. Dissolving water into my skin, I watched you change. When you come back around I wont put up a fight. I will let you in Every single time. The pain is lighter to bare Than the thought of you not being there. It's bleak becoming what we want It has left me struck. When you come back around I wont put up a fight. I will let you in Every single time. I will be angry if I have to be. I will be angry if I want to be.
11.
I hear your voice still so clearly underneath the door to my room. Floating in, shaking and grasping at intangible pain. This time it ran me over, pulled me apart completely, Then put me back together all rearranged. Does it count as haunting if it's kept secretly inside of me, Embedded in each and every space that lies between? Things that can't be avoided Try as I might to pretend That nothing is real That it's not the end.
