Take Shelter (Lyrics)
Emmanuel Casillas

We used to live
in a small house
the walls stood still
that was enough, it was enough

Sunlight creeps 
through a window
the bed lies still
without a sound, without a sound

Do i live in the back of your head still?
Will you take shelter?
I still live 
I still live

The clouds came in 
the walls fell bare.
The paint began
to tear away, to tear away

It was not enough, not enough

Do i live in the back of your head still?
Will you take shelter?
I still live
I still live

Lyrics:

recovering silence, disturbed by the scratching
playing in my head heard by the bedside
fucking thighs smacking ride cymbal sweet nothings 
whispered oh it was never simple now tell me
are cold nights long gone have they ended the songs
about tears and longing his pockets buying
stringing along my mannequin dancing for him 
stage lights dimmed and

it's playing in my head
it's playing since you left
it's playing in my head
since you left

two players switch punches it was a game
turned real strikes connected into pain
losing my grip your figure turns away
broken the chains you're not the same
and now with the other behind the wall
none the better you're reaching the fall
and i'll be waiting watching from afar
his presence faded revealing the scars

it's playing in my head
it's playing since you left
it's playing in my head
since you left

it's playing in my head
it's playing since you left
it's playing in my head
since you

man in reverence
begging for silence
give me peace
give me peace

it's playing in my head
it's playing since you left
it's playing in my head
since you left

it's playing in my head
it's playing since you left
it's playing in my head
since you left

Perfect Escape - Emmanuel Casillas
Lyrics

Perfect Escape

Crashing
Too many things, pressing on all sides
Bring me to my knees, down at your feet

I feel like I’m crashing, destroying myself
I feel like I’m crashing, crashing in myself

You’ll find me braking, against the voices
They push me faster, they hunger for more

I feel like I’m crashing, destroying myself
I feel like I’m crashing, crashing in myself

Scraping metal, against my forehead
My mind is shaking off the endless noise
I walk away from, the laughing ashes
and I throw down a burning match

I feel like I’m crashing, destroying myself
I feel like I’m crashing, crashing in myself
