I am a person who breaks pushes barriers with their speech 
I break down walls of stress, buried under painful emotions and mistakes 
I've ruptured wounds opened not just by myself 
I want to be their friend not just somebody else 
Who makes life harder and brings on headaches 
Forces their chest to bleed and pound with haste 
Rips off those rose tinted glasses to reveal life isn't free 
Of heartbreak, sadness, and unfair beliefs 
I don't want to be that, I don't want to be that 

Open up to me 
We can choose not to agree 
Tell me anything you like 
And I'll promise, I'll listen and sigh 
When you tell me about the sadness you've been through 
I can relate to it, I can relate to it too 
If I embraced you without telling you, 
Would you feel better? Would it make you feel better? 

We're companions in this world, my friend 
I can help you through it 
You intuition forces you to deny it; just see through it 
When it billows up in your mind, you won't break free 
Unless you open up to me, you'll see 

Trust me that I won't understand, but I will try to understand 
But if we relate to one another and find a result 
We will prevail

Zen Den - - -> Open Wounds

[Why do we crave the comfort? Why do we crave the comfort?] 

We sit in silence because there is nothing left to give 
And if I break out of my shell, my spine will erupt in chills 
What will people think of me when they see I'm not alive? 
They will inspect me as if they are watching the moment I die 

I reject this forceful stillness; I reject it everyday 
I will embarrass myself at a moment's notice to prove that I'm awake 
I feel the sun rising, thing light filled with love 
And I search for it in the people around me 
I want to hear the cry of doves 

We live life without knowing its true intentions 
But I will test them and learn to forget them 
I set my own agenda, and that's what we're all supposed to do 
Many people think we're controlled by the world, but it's really just me and you 
Any reconstructed rule is composed of force and fear 
And if you choose to believe it, your heart will sear 

I'm challenging ideas, I'm challenging ideas, and it's beating me down 
People have told me to mold my smile to the majority, a frown 
And not challenge intention or ways of being 
But if that's the truth, I'm bound to failing 

I search in the fine details, I search for their worth 
To inspire my net set of ideas, to pass along the good word 
And if you're listening to my wisdom right now, 
I'm not putting myself on a pedestal 
I'm just another mind on this Earth waiting to be fulfilled 

Take a step back, man; take a step back, man 
Relax, man; relax, man 
And find to true love, and find true love 
It's all around you; it's all around you

Sleeping Bags In A Row - - -> Comfort?

What are they saying about me? 
What are they saying about me? 
What are they saying about me? 
What are they saying about me? 
What are they saying about me?

Everything Speeds Up - - -> What Are They Saying?

Isn't it sad that we must learn from our mistakes? 
We dig deep unconsciously 
When we try to find companionship, sometimes passion is weak 
And we try our hardest to revive something we can't keep 

Other people are hurtful in the most malicious ways 
You will butt heads, and the stress will conquer your days 
But we can admit there's someone who we could treated better 
We bullied for amusement, but who said saying nothing was any better? 

We must hurt to love 
It's nothing we can foresee 
Some people see their mistakes as regret 
But I see them as learning 
Yeah, I've hurt people in my past, and I've been hurt too 
But if I sustained this hate for years 
I would miss out on the joys of life from my fears 

I can never go back, and I'll give anything a chance 
You have to love like you've never been hurt to truly love again

Milkshakes in the Rain ---> Hurt to Love

I'm an open book; can't you tell? 
I don't have any secrets worth keeping to myself 
I don't know how to live, and neither do you 
And privacy only misconfigures what it means to be human 

Look into my eyes, tell me the truth 
I've unintentionally done something to me, maybe you 
I need your clarity and sensitive touch 
Because I have entered territory I haven't explored much 

There was a time I was unslept, locked inside my brain 
I couldn't comprehend why I felt so ashamed 
Lying awake, restless, becoming lost in my delusion 
I've never experienced so much confusion 

The only thing I could assume was my body was being adjusted 
By a chiropractor in Roscoe Village, they helped me ease the tension 
From the stress I locked inside my body from all the overworking
And restless nights I had accumulated up until that moment 

I wasn't the same person 
I was confusing as hell 
And if I ever hurt you just tell me 
I want to learn it well

Endless Days At Stroud - - -> Let's Talk About Confusion

That night, your fling's Dad was in the hospital 
You looked at your phone and wished time would shift 
And you could be there for him 
But it was New Years Eve, you were drunk and drowning 
So you ran, so you ran, so you ran 

I tried to lead you the right way, but you just kept on running 
We stopped in front of a bar, I grabbed your shoulders 
"Megan, what are you doing?" 
You screamed you didn't know me, but you were staying at my place 
We weren't aromatic; really just friends out of place 

A bystander walked up to her and whispered in her ear 
"Do you know this man? Why is he here?" 
Megan, you said you didn't know me, and I was bothering your sanity 
But I was only trying to retrieve your well-being 

The woman accused me of taking advantage and raping your love 
But I was trying to be your friend, Megan, not to be that someone 
She threatened to call the cops if I didn't step away 
And, man, you ran off as soon as you left my stay 

I screamed at you that night 
The most angry I've ever been 
My roommate and his girlfriend thought I had gone off the hinges
I'm a passionate friend, don't wear me down 
I was only trying to save you from the danger that surrounds 
"I could have listened to you but I didn't; I don't know how to explain it" 
And that's when I knew the respect of our friendship was fading 

Being taken advantage of by a friend, being accused of rape 
Shuns all the respect I offered you to take 
We weren't acquaintances after that day 
Even when you returned from London and requested my friendship to stay

Morgan - - -> Megan

How would you feel if you didn't belong in the place that you worked? 
I work in an office that neglects emotion and human worth 
The people there don't acknowledge each other much 
And that is a fact, without contradiction 
I won't talk about unique behavior 
That isn't my decision 
Everyone plays their own song 
But they're always dissonant; they never come together 
They are foreign to the world they've built 
And there's a cesspool of neglect in the middle 
And they all just watch 
If someone were to fall in, 
They would remain still 
They would remain still

Human Crier
