This is an acoustic version of a collab I did with Miami Jeff. We wrote the lyrics together. I sent him a demo of a song similar to this with just some guitar and the lyrics. He restructured the lyrics to flow better and added some of his own to it. He constructed a masterpiece with a full instrumental and vocal guide for me to follow. I was stuck on my own as well, Miami Jeff was cool with doing both, with this coming out as a reprise or alternative version. I hope you enjoy this one, and if you haven't heard the version on Miami Jeff's page, I highly recommend it. It has a very cool video, along with some awesome track art.


1)  THE BURNING LEAVES UPON THE GROUND,

     THE GRASS, THE TREES, OBSCURE THE SOUND,

     THIS FEELING OF IMPENDING DOOM,  

     SMOKE FROM THE ASHES HIDE THE MOON,

     REMEMBER WHEN OUR LOVE WAS NEW?

     NOW WHAT’S A THING LIKE ME TO DO?



          I’LL KEEP FLOATING THROUGH LIKE ROBOTS DO,

          EXPRESS NO LOVE, NO EMOTIONS TOO

          CLANKING AWAY WITH RUSTY PARTS, 

          LIKE THE TINMAN WITHOUT A HEART,        

          BUT DEEP DOWN INSIDE I CAN STILL RECALL,

          A SENSE OF WARMTH BEHIND THIS WALL,

          YOUR LOVELY FACE, YOUR EYES OF BLUE,

          FUNNY THE THINGS  ROBOTS DO?



2)  HIGHWAY HYPNOSIS HALF ASLEEP,

     THE TRUCKS, THE CARS, THE LINES THAT CREEP,

     I’M FEELING DROWSY, PASSING OUT,

     HORNS HONKING WILDLY AWAKE THE DOUBT,

     WHAT HAPPENED TO THE LOVE WE KNEW?

     NOW WHAT’S A THING LIKE ME TO DO?

          

          I’LL KEEP FLOATING THROUGH LIKE ROBOTS DO,

          EXPRESS NO LOVE, NO EMOTION TOO

          CLANKING AWAY WITH RUSTY PARTS, 

          LIKE THE TINMAN WITHOUT A HEART,        

          BUT DEEP INSIDE I CAN STILL RECALL,

          A SENSE OF WARMTH BEHIND THIS WALL,

          YOUR LOVELY FACE, YOUR EYES OF BLUE,

          FUNNY THE THINGS ROBOTS DO,

Like Robots Do (Reprise)

in my palms fall within
Etch your name in my skin

Take my life, do me in

Break my mind, Mistress Sin

Blur my eyes, Play pretend

That’s the game, she plays it over again 

Deaf to lies tell me it’s you and i

I remember that you hate goodbyes

Go it alone i swear i’ll be just fine

Thread to my life and yet we still cut ties

In my palms fall within

Etch your name in my skin 


Take my life, do me in

Break my mind, Mistress Sin
(Mistress Sin)
Blur my eyes, Play pretend
(Blur my eyes, play pretend)
That’s the game, she plays it over again 
(That’s the game)
Deaf to lies tell me it’s you and i

I remember that you hate goodbyes

Go it alone i swear i’ll be just fine

Thread to my life and yet we still cut ties

(Aaa)
(Aaa)

Still cut ties

Take my life, do me in

Break my mind, Mistress Sin

Blur my eyes, Play pretend

That’s the game, she plays it over again 

Deaf to lies tell me it’s you and i

I remember that you hate goodbyes

Go it alone i swear i’ll be just fine

Thread to my life and yet we still cut ties

Ties

steady on or it'll get worse  
i dont remember her words
but she spoke in her mother tongue

calm with her voice
but loud with her mouth
shes turning around
to see what she wants from me

Mother Tongue

Climbing Up The Walls (Pervenche Mix)

some life someday, i can repay, past self old ways, no dreams, all haze. feels like im spinning in circles ... with nowhere to run, always chasing the sun. Want you, need you, keep you, cut into the gray days, free me from this place. feels like im spinning in circles with no where to run... always chasing.

Hazy

Come now
The Light of the World
before we find ourselves so far removed
again

I know
you wrote it all down for us
but would you change your mind
this time

Please don't change your mind
about us
