You fit into me like a comma
at the end of a thought about home
but you left me here once again
to face this night alone

The curve of your back is an answer 
to the question of how things should be
but from where I sit there is nothing
cause that's all you left me

I'm pacing the tiles 
watching the hours be erased
Just lost in the aisles
counting the moments
till I finally see your face

The light in your eyes when you se me
like it's been years since we met
It takes all my fears and my troubles
and lays them down to rest

I'm pacing the tiles...



Comma

The streets are calm tonight
Everyone is fast asleep or out of sight
This feeling is unlike
Anything that I have known before tonight

There's no need for sleep
Chicago has abandoned all her busy streets
We'll dance in summer rains
You and I may never get this chance again

Let's set it all alight and spill into the streets
The dark is breaking for the eastern sky
We are more alive than we will ever be
And we can travel faster than the light

The rain inside our skins 
There are no moments but the ones we're in
The dawn has washed away
Anything I could've been before today

Let's set it all alight and spill into the streets...

Cause I know when it ends
Then the rest of our days will begin
And we can pretend
That we know we will always be friends
Yes we know we will always be friends

Let's set it all alight and spill into the streets

Faster Than Light

All your dreams fell apart at the seams
and cast you to the side
The saddest thing is you don't believe
that you deserve to smile

Oh, but you don't know...

We've all faced the battles
We all bear the scars
None of these things matter
you don't know just how
beautiful you are

If you could see just what I see
then you would understand
until you do I would recommend you
would just take my hand

Oh you don't know...

You Don't Know

We were standing on the edge of the world
Being battered by the tide and surf
Marking distance by the curve of the Earth
Feeling weightless from the lightness of words

From the houses that are lining the coast
To the concept of the Holy Ghost
The thought of you it haunts my memory so
And it follows me wherever I go

And the call that that I hear back to me
Lives in everything that I can see

Like the golden mean, in everything
You're in everything that I can see

Painted in the frame of Gherardini
Written on the curve of galaxies
I can hear it in the Music For Strings
And he space that is between you and me

Golden Mean

You're lookin fine no clouds in the sky
All of these things they seem so right
But still this thing won't pass me by
Maybe it's just being alive

No envy no pain, not even rain
Nothin to keep me feelin fine
Still in the face of all of this fine
I find I'm faced with somethin inside

Oh oh oh oh oh, I am extraordinarily low
Oh oh oh oh oh, guess that's just how these things go

I can't see here and I'm glad you're here
I couldn't want want anything more
Still in the face of all of this fine
I find I'm faced with something inside

Oh...

These streets of pillars and spyres
are funeral pyres, just fuel for the fire.
All these killers for hire in banker's attire
just fuel for the fire

All the things you own will end up owning you
we can not be free, till we loose everything

Let's burn it all down, to ashes
Let's just burn it all down
Let's burn it all down
We'll throw it all into the fire

You might think that you know just how this'll go
Just wait for the show
JP Morgan and Chase there won't be a trace
Just ashes and waste
Everybody thinks someone owes them somethin
The priests and all the sinners will all be smoke and cinders

Let's burn it all down...

And oh, the rest of our days we'll bask in the blaze
of the remnants we razed
We can take what remains and rest in the shade
Of our disarray.

Let's burn it all down...


Burn It All Down

Susie Lee

The way you smile at me
So condescending you'd think you were the one
to think of this

Don't get ahead of yourself 
I gave up long ago and just could not admit
you were a passing tone
a note to get me from here to there
a stepping stone
I loved you 'cause you were there

I spent all my days
trying to find ways to pay for all the things I had done
I never stopped to think 
If this was anything I would want or if you were a
passing tone...

I am far enough now to see 
how the process evolved
just how shallow you could be
the problems we'd never solve



Passing Tone

Every day's the same when you live too far from the sun.
And I have become tired and old waiting here.
Out here the air is so thin that there is no song,
no air moves along my melodies are waiting for someone to carry me.
You keep me just close enough to your warmth that I can't let go and by the same token I'm just far enough that I'm dead and cold.
I've been on this path at this pace for such a long time that I can't decide if it was me or someone else who drove me to this fate.
You keep me just close enough...

You must believe that you're everything and we all revolve around you just can't see your light.

You keep me just close enough...
