Track List

  1. Well, I’m sitting here thinking about what I’d do.
    Simple life, simple rules.
    It’s hard when I’m getting there alone.
    You’re a prize at the end of a simple road.
    I’m giving you the antidote to me.
    How bad could it be?

    Everyone’s so foolish when they think about
    How you and me both turned out,
    Apart when we should’ve been together.
    You got yours well, I’ll get mine
    I’m wasting time, wasting time again.
    We never learn in the end.

    Don’t I still sound like we’re so perfectly in tune?
    I still sound like I’m here waiting for you.
    I still sound like we’re on to something new.
    I still sound like I’ve grown; but, I’m just like you.

    I know you better than you think you do,
    You take me and tear me in two.
    Oh, it something you shouldn’t do.
    25 years to meet your man.
    I’m still here innocent again, it’s how I’ve been.

  2. I’ve been safe and sound, then it came to me.
    How you locked me up and threw away the key.
    Is there a meaning to another sleepless night?
    I keep the shades apart so we don’t stay alone.
    Visitors in dreams, in another form.
    You’re out of reach and I’m out of reasons why.

    Sad, the way I’m feeling as I missed the train.
    Slowly watch the ceiling caving in.

    You caught me off my guard, I never seemed to mend.
    You’ve been a well-kept secret I refused to share.
    And when you came around, I let it slip away.
    I’m looking at the seeds in your family tree
    Everyone’s moved on except a part of me.
    I’m a bloody wound, so would you soak me up?

    Sad, the way I’m feeling as I missed the train.
    Slowly watch the ceiling caving in.
    Sad, does not appear a temporary thing.
    Oh, it never helps me when I keep it in.

  3. I want to be distant lover,
    Call you when you’re down.
    Disconnect myself from me.
    I want to be distant lover,
    Right before we drown.
    Cut my rope and set me free.

    But it’s you I’m calling mystified.
    Are you faking suicide?
    What’s the use of hurting yourself now?
    But it’s you taking me back and forth.
    I’m down like a wounded horse.
    What’s the use of hurting yourself now?

    I want to be distant lover,
    Swimming in my cell.
    Patience never worked for me.
    I’ll never be just another.
    Would you reconcile and
    Tell me if I’m in too deep.

    I used to love her.

  4. Your love is like the ocean but there’s no one around.
    It’s empty of emotions, deep as the sea of sound.
    Every time I dream of an angel in disguise
    I swallow up the fever and never decide.

    If love is the way you’re loving the feeling that I want to be wherever you are.
    Then something will change; give me a reason because it’s tearing us both apart.

    I’ve seen the world through your eyes, what a sad experience.
    You were to me always, prohibited area.
    Do you remember what a spark we used to have?
    Ever since, I lost touch with myself, I can’t feel a thing.

    Does it mean anything to you?
    It doesn’t mean anything

  5. Skeletons in my closet.
    It’s never safe to come out.
    Cast a spell on my conscience.
    Send a shiver down my spine.

    I said I want to take you into the water.
    I want to take you into the night.

    All I hear is pitch black.
    Nothing matters anymore.
    I miss the sound of your footsteps.
    Making your way down the hall.

    Something’s bad now,
    Where do you belong?

  6. What is the noise I hear? It’s sweeter than it sounds.
    Beyond the wonder years, it lies six feet underground.
    Now you’re expecting me to be a mystery when
    All I’ve been to you was a thrill to kill or multiply.

    This time I don’t want to push it too far.
    Oh no, I don’t want to push it too far.
    Been so confused, out of the dead, into the blues.

    Ugly as you could be, at best you hypnotize.
    Where all the words you use with me could only criticize.
    I’ll bathe in wet cement, so we could disconnect.
    You may seem beautiful, but you’re the devil in disguise.

    This won’t affect me, like you they come and go.
    Living in overdrive. How was I supposed to know?

  7. Everything just comes and goes
    She said to me I’m the best you’d ever have
    But I’m simply not amused
    She sees herself in a wedding dress
    The only thing I see is a deathbed
    I’ll never be like you

    She was a saint I could not find
    What should we do if we’re lonely inside?
    She was a saint I could not find
    What should we do with our bind?
    Is there anyone out there?

    A bad addiction is a bad infliction
    I’ve bottled up a romance for a while
    It keeps changing like my moods
    Out of bounds where you’re safe and sound
    I should’ve let it rest a long time ago
    I’ll never be a tool

  8. I am what I was meant to be
    I won’t pretend we’re enemies
    I’ll do my best in hanging on to all we are
    One heart to give two souls apart
    We live the day that never starts
    Tonight, was safe and sound until she came around

    Stop looking for answers that’s what she would say
    It’s all in your head
    It’s all in your head

    She is the fairy under my old dirty pillow of white lies
    A cloud has fallen in too deep
    We go to sleep
    I’m waking up into a dream
    It’s all a blur or so it seems
    The time is right for you and I to say goodbye

  9. Lately, I feel difference somewhere in my mind.
    There might be something missing from what I left behind.
    I can’t go on pretending that everything is intact,
    When I tried all the pills, none of them react.

    Now I’m losing my temper, out of control.
    This year’s December, I’m letting you go.

    I hold myself responsible to what’s become of me,
    An addict to my dramas and anything in between.
    I’m a problematic in case you didn’t know.
    No one seems to please me, no one seems to show.

  10. What you see when you’re asleep doesn’t really matter.
    Lose the feeling, counting sheep, they just seem to shatter.
    Visions of a naked truth traveling a distance.
    Use your space it’ll take you far, far from the existence.

    Are we dreams? Are we lost?
    Are we free of remorse?
    Are we dreams? Are we lost?
    Are we real? We’re just ghosts.

    Keep in mind what clues you find. They might come in easy.
    Close your eyes and memorize because what you see is imagery.
    Am I the only one to see it when we come undone, caught up in a monogram?
    This dream has begun.
