Thanks for Everything

You're half way round the world now, do you feel as empty as me
Think backward just two days so that I can feel less incomplete
Tracing patterns that you drew across the sky as you flew away from me
I know it isn't easy to say a real goodbye
You tell me see you later and we hope its not a lie
Shift our weight to bear the silence that we'll share, pretend you're here until next time
If all we have is just this moment, how can I communicate
the impact that you've made how truly much it means to me
and all the hours that we've spent I know for sure they'll make me ache
I guess thanks for everything
I guess thanks for everything
I can't believe you're gone
I hope its not for long
I know it isn't easy to say a real goodbye
You tell me see you later and we hope its not a lie
Shift our weight to bear the silence that we'll share, pretend you're here until next time

It is not easy to see
You let go so easily
Cause you’re still everything I think
And you’re still everything I sing
If you could see you like I do
Maybe then you’d feel it too
You're beautiful everyone knows
I can't ignore you
Cause I’m still loving the shadow
Of who you used to be
I know you’re gone
I do not mean wrong but
I wish you’d never loved me
When you smile, you challenge the stars
It's quite an unfair competition
I want to be wherever you are
I’m trying to keep from falling apart
Cause I’m still loving the shadow
Of who you used to be
I know you’re gone
and I do not mean wrong but
I wish you’d never loved me
I wish you’d never loved me
I’m slipping away
I’ll never be the same
You cannot lose me
But I have lost myself poisoned by obsession and dismay
Unfortunately for me, the incredible happiness that your love brought to me is, in fact, commensurate with the emptiness and desolation that the absence of your love entails.

Hypothermia

The silence haunts me, so I plug in
Something to distract me from within
I’ve tried to be fine, it’s not working
So I will have to just pretend
Tear down these walls, so I can breathe
I’m suffocating
Fall down again, so I can bleed
Remember what it means
To be alone when it’s so cold
There’s no one else I want to hold
In my arms, in my heart your cold
But I won’t let you go
There’s something missing in these lines
Something changed or you just lied
It’s easier to stand outside, I start to numb but that’s alright
Because my mind, it is on fire
Whoaahh
Tear down these walls, so I can breathe
I’m suffocating
Fall down again, so I can bleed
Remember what it means
To be alone when it’s so cold
There’s no one else I want to hold
In my arms, in my heart your cold
But I won’t let you go

Walking Blindly
03:20

I know I’m not insane
But a tired mind can leave you kind of frayed
Miraculous
How fast you got into my brain
Walking blindly
Silently crying out
I wish there was a better way
I only have myself to blame
It’s hard to forgive those who do no not wish to change
I recollect
All the mistakes I hide in shame
How can I not see?
This darkness is not me
so I will lay here in dismay
I’ll count these hours as they come
Rewind to watch it all undone
I know we’re not the same
So why am I refusing to convey
The vacuous
State that I can’t seem to escape
Walking blindly, please come and find me
I need to find a better way
I don’t recognize my face
I struggle just to speak my own name It feels so alien to say
I wish that I did not feel so betrayed
And the flood comes rushing in
I wade through it to wash away the sin You won’t define me anymore
I stand alone in pouring rain
There’s no rewind for me, I scream
YOU WON’T DEFINE ME ANYMORE...

Rampancy

I open my eyes but I don't really see
All that surrounds me it's blinding
I know that I can't sit here but I can not even stand
I'm paralyzed
Time has blurred to nothing, it's been a week since I have eaten
But I'm not hungry
I hate what I am thinking, but I think it anyway
Will someone please deliver me from rampancy
And I hate myself for hating you
Cause you say that it's nothing to do with me
And I hate myself for loving you
Cause there's no one but me to blame
I open my eyes but I can't really see
All that surrounds me it's blinding
I know that I can't sit here but I can not even stand
I'm paralyzed
Time has blurred to nothing, it's been a week since I have eaten
But I'm not hungry
I hate what I am thinking, but I think it anyway
Will someone please deliver me from rampancy
And I hate myself for hating you
Cause you say that it's nothing to do with me
And I hate myself for loving you
Cause there's no one but me to blame
(Open my eyes)
And I hate myself for hating you
(I can not see)
Cause you say that it's nothing to do with me
(I can not sit here)
And I hate myself for loving you
(But I'm paralyzed)
Cause there's no one but me to blame

Lungs

Lately I wake up early
I can't explain it
Most days I'm not so empty
But here today
My mind is not so stable
It seems I build too many towers
With such poor foundations
But what's the point of building carefully
When the view is far better with the thrill of uncertainty
When hellos not enough
The words get caught in my lungs
They're on the tip of my tongue
But I can't bring myself to say
All these words in my brain
Can't seem to make them go away
I just don't want things to change
You mean the world to me
Lately I fall asleep so slowly
I can't explain
So many thoughts that I cannot contain it
I need to find anything
To divide me from my mind
And never do I think of leaving
there's nowhere to run to anyway
Sometimes I wish I could change your mind
Cause false hope will kill me
When hellos not enough
The words get caught in my lungs
They're on the tip of my tongue
But I can't bring myself to say
All these words in my brain
Can't seem to make them go away
I don't want things to change
You mean the world to me
There's nothing to see here
What was left of me has dissapeared
I can't help but think of you
Hopelessly in search of what I did wrong
When hellos not enough
The words get caught in my lungs
They're on the tip of my tongue
But I can't bring myself to say
All these things in my brain
I can't stop things from changing
You mean the world to me
Now I crawl into my shell
Because for me there's no one else
And I hope you find yourself
In the arms of someone else.
