i went to the park today
and watched the city pass me by
picking out faces in crowds
countless combinations of three
and if no one gets this but you
that'll be enough for me

so don't look back
you can leave when you want
here we are at the start
my words fall short
no, don't look down
i'm looking to you
don't think too much on what you do

when the wind bites your face
and the streets are all empty
when you're stripping flesh to bones
you fear you found nothing new
just your tired soul

i took a walk to ease the pain
of the hundred thousand things that i could never say
and everyone knows you better than i do
this is just one long day that will never end

it never ends
no, it never stops
the sound of the walls closing in and the ticking clocks
you get no relief
no, there's no rest
because the reflections through the glass can never be the same
no, it's never the same

we rely on everyone to tell us who we are now
we can never figure out it for ourselves
and we are just who we pretend to be now
so be careful who you pretend to be

==================

how long is too long
before it's sad to wait?
i feel their eyes
cold on my back
free from fault
i'm waiting here
through judging eyes
i'm holding on
i see in you nothing wrong
don't let me down
when time has come

i'm waiting here - my friends would run

and i'll hold you close
just to let you go
and i'll push you down
because it's all i know
and i've waited here, patiently
to lose pulse through your heartbeat
hand in mine
put your hands in mine now, love

and i wondered why you never called
waiting here on my own
we have so much - we only know
what we choose we're gonna show

i'm waiting here - so, come on now

i'm getting older
can feel it in my bones
my body aches and time quakes
my eyes flutter and i'll see you when
it's a year gone by

sing your song of hope for me
about maybe one day i'll be free
cast it out and send me on my way
'cause i can't get out of my own head
when i'm on my own

everywhere i look is something new and
everything i see reminds of you and
own hands
your way
my friend
you'll stay
come home someday
now

i'm waiting on a cab to come
these neon lights they always numb
me to you
i can't see what i said when the time comes to end

so come on baby blue
i've been sitting here
staring back at you
take me somewhere new
where i've gone is gone
what i know is wrong

so come on baby blue
take me home with you
don't hold out for something else i'm
waiting here
take in all right now i see

and everyone i love is
everyone i trust 
is you

waiting for summer rain to clear away
the webs that are fogging my brain

and everyone i know has died 
in some way
i'm hoping to find life in black and white

my voice - it don't sing so loud
my head - buried in your shroud 
i know, i'm getting nowhere fast with you

stansions come so rapidly
i wave my head 
right around your tree
but i won't drive you home right now

i want to sit and stay with you
i'm open - my head is far from love
just pour yourself another cup of tea
and i will hold off slowly

and everyone i love is
everyone i trust
is you

and everyone i know
is missing trust
it's only truth

i'm waiting for summer rain to clear away
the webs that are fogging my brain

and everyone i know has died
in someway
i'm hoping to find life in black and white

and everyone i know has died
in someway
i'm hoping to find you in black and white

how did you put into words
the thoughts that have been mine all along?
i've been silent so long so
i can hear your wandering mind

waiting longer
year by year
falling further from grace till i'm walking on heals

i've been wrong for so long
that i'm wading through colors
waiting for someone like you
to take me away 
take me today
open my eyes please
and i hope you can see that
i wanted to be your
one and only
but, i couldn't hold me to you

all i can see is visions of ghosts
they feed on me
feed on me help me see
nothing good will come from everything i've waited for
i've waited for you
and i've told you i want you here right by my side
i can't believe my today i wanted to die
and i wanted to feel we were together in alone
i wanted to feel in love with someone i know

and i've longed for so long that
i'm wading through colors
waiting for someone like you
to take me today
take me away
open my eyes please
and i hope you can see that
i wanted to be your
one and only
but, i couldn't hold me to you

i'm holding the cards
never lending a hand
i'm tying the noose
that makes it too hard to stand
in this house of glass
i'm watching time
silent with numb eyes

and all this time i'm slowly been drawing the blinds
and handing you this neatly wrapped disguise
not knowing the truth, i'll hope i've fooled you
i'll hope you'll let me believe
i'll hope you've done the same as me
i hope you can see right through

so help me slow this hummingbird heart
before it explodes
but, it's never gonna be yours to own
and although it's awkward and forced 
it's the only truth i have to give

i'm walking in reverse because
what lies ahead
isn't what i'd hoped for
looking down the wrong end of the telescope lens
just please stop the clocks and let time stand still
let me make sense of the moment 
before moments pass
let me make sense of the moments 
before it's past

so help me slow this hummingbird heart
before it explodes
but, it's never gonna be yours to own
and this shaking smile is all i have for you
and although it's awkward and forced 
it's the only truth i have for you

all the things you've heard
all the things you've seen
never let them in they won't
change a thing

like cars on a track
i'll only hold you back
watch the fable grow
so your story goes

the window's always seemed like
your next to last hope
no one ever told you it's
always been rusted shut

so tell me something new
help me see
what i can't see in fear
the line of the story's
just a hand out of reach
what i know is enough for
something else and something else
i need something else in my life
someone else's something else 
pushed me away one last time

i'm seeing through this time
i can't hear you
it's sound we speak
we don't say a thing
one day you'll see
the things i've seen
i can't stand the way you talk 
all we do is talk
all we do is talk in
circles and i'm
dying to know

so give me something else
i'll take one of your pills
i'll take one of your pills
i'll swallow something else
just give me something else
for the pain
the pain pain i've felt all ways
just something else
i want something else
coursing through my veins i know
take me down right now
something else to make me alone

alone is all i want
alone is all i want
alone is all i want
alone is all i want

just let me be alone
cause no one i've ever known
has made it ok to be
ok to be alright
just give me one of your pills
so i can sleep through the night

i've never known
i've never known
i've never known
i've never known

so keep on talking to stop yourself from thinking
do you believe the words you say you are?
impressions depressing when not intriguing 
is everyone kindly polite or short of lens?

i'm pushing and pleading 
my eyes are not ready for reading
these lines of subtle diseases 
i'm bending and forcing
i am mending the breaking
my hands are too calloused for healing the weak

stories of others becoming your own
entwined and enticed without having a voice
you're screaming these nothings with full on aggression 
your eyes chasing a throne

i'm pushing and pleading 
my eyes are not ready for reading
these lines of subtle diseases 
i'm bending and forcing
i am mending the breaking
my hands are too calloused for healing the weak
