Verse 1:
I think I’ve cashed this out
This bowl of ash it tells
All my secrets, everything
Oh no I can’t surpass
Incompetence, relapse
Straight into obscurity
Chorus:
So, wake me up inside
I’m calling out tonight
That I’m down (3x)
This storm that burns inside
It is pouring out tonight
It’s coming down (3x)
Verse 2:
Every turn I make
Life's fucking aggregate
I’m the building imploding
Another blinding light
Just let me cry one night
Self absorbing empathy
-Chorus-

Consolation Prize

Flakes of fire (2x)
The sun is burning up
Smoke invades the air just like the men who took my children's life
Drink away (2x)
I cannot take no more
So many lives in vain, how can people cause so much pain?
And the air fills my desire,
To devastate, intoxicate,
Infatuation fills these bombs
And I ain’t got no qualms
Blinds ahoy (2x)
No more peripheral
Eyes are glued to my cell phone, lets narrowly avoid
See the news (2x)
I am so confused
So much dismemberment and so much I cannot do
What good can I do? (4x)
The anger and frustration
Brings on this new consolation,
Prize of the so obscene
Why isn’t everyone just like me?
I will ask all the questions
I will not compromise

Charlatans

Verse 1:
Throw away yours eyes don’t look at me
I’m just a sad swollen sore eyed soul lacking empathy
I don’t mean to rain on this parade
But this event has become one big cloud of haze
Pre-Chorus: (3x)
The charlatans are coming (2x)
(Clear 'em out)
Chorus:
Grab a look at yourself
Can’t you see you’re erasing all your memory?
Fields are gone, there’s nothing left
Can’t you see you’re doing what is contrary?
Verse: 2:
Give me your ears and all your faith
This life has torn me to pieces that we can’t replace
The sun is up and down again
A copper drives away; well is this all your offering
-Pre-Chorus-
-Chorus-

Chorus:
Lay me down tonight with your bedroom eyes
Can I see you?
Verse 1:
Well you’re a lost soul on the subway
We all see where this goes
You’re mother's pulling shifts down at diner
Your fathers been a junkie and he’s seen all of the roads
He’s somewhere out there stuck in limbo
Pre-Chorus:
Where is your escape and grace
He’s out there waiting for a trace
She says “can you tell me where to find him”
“Oh please just can you tell me where to find him”
Then she says….
-Chorus-
Verse 2:
You’re searching for the wisdom of a long dead old friend
But they’re still just hanging around the corner
You’re seeing all of the sites and wanna know what rules to bend
But there’s always something that seems missing
Then you say…
-Chorus-
Verse 3:
The train finally arrives and the door slides open wide
Boy, does this seem just the like movies
You meet him on the subway and as clear as day and night
Your black eye shows him all of the stories
And he says…
Chorus 2:
Let’s lay you down tonight, no bedroom eyes
Can I save you?

Lions Head

Verse 1:
I'm going on the run
As if there was a loaded gun
Pointed straight at me
I can't handle a life
Full of disgust and dirty mice
Ankles deep in fantasy
Chorus:
So fake me a home
Where I can hang up my coat and be alone
My life is full of dread
A darkness sets with a lion's head looking for a bed
Verse 2:
Blank stares, do you look at me?
With the same soul of disbelief?
I cannot unsee
Some I wills and maybes
Full of shit like rabbits with rabies
Just a catastrophe
-Chorus-
-Solo-
-Chorus-
So can you look at me
With those eyes of the open sea
That are sure enough to bleed
Tell me the tales
As my ship has already set sail
Onto the land of no retail

Quiet Down

Verse 1:
I think it’s time that I sat down and had a talk to me
The futures blurry but the past is all history
The nights are longer and the days are all a merging into one
And restless legs tell me it's time to roam
I think about those times way back, just like a time machine
Those days are gone and now they don’t like that I’m 23
Simpler times with all the free time and the fun that we all had
No wonder why my back hurts so bad
Chorus:
Retract everything
Don’t fall apart
I’m sure right now it seems so dark
Make a wish
Take a bow
I’m sure one day our lives will quiet down
Verse 2:
We’re all grown up, lives filled with time, yea we are moving on
My life’s a loading screen that’s frozen up, so turn it off
I miss those times but I’m aware that that is all in the past
Oh god I knew that it wouldn’t last
-Chorus-
