Layed in bed all day
I told myself that it would be this way forever
But I know
The sunshine's beating down my door
And you know
All I gotta do is get to it so
Help me help me if you can
I need a hand to help me up
Cuz once i'm there, there's nothing I would fear
No, I cant stop.
The first steps always the hardest just to see past all this grey
But once i'm there I know i'll be okay.
I'll be okay
I'll be okay
It's always something
That I seem to do
A little cognitive dissonance my mind can't hold up through
But I know i'm only human
And this is all a game
So i'll play the fool.
Help me help me if you can
I need a hand to help me up
Cuz once i'm there, there's nothing I would fear
No, I cant stop.
The first steps always the hardest just to see past all this grey
But once i'm there I know i'll be okay.
I'll be okay
I'll be okay

Moral Color Scheme
04:49
|

So this is where we disagree
Our past and future seem to barely meet
But I haven't forfeited since I was 10
The simple things that used to go away
Our minds seem to over-complicate it now
I would believe you if I could
But these treaties require special ink
And you lack the will to sign your name
Hold this down, love, I can't
I can't believe what I cannot see and you are slowly fading
So hold this down for me
I've seen your moral color scheme swiftly turning grey
And I'm afraid
You'll blame the tide for taking me away
I'll blame your lies that never dissipate
But i'm not so sure if I can go through with it
I'm willing to look the other way if you promise that you'll change someday
Cuz I'm just a fool for you
Hold this down, love, I can't
I can't believe what I cannot see and you are slowly fading
So hold this down for me
I've seen your moral color scheme swiftly turning grey
And I'm afraid
So sit here in silence with me
Help me pretend that things are how their meant to be
I have every right to be angry
Cuz all I've ever known was you
Hold this down, love, I can't
I can't believe what I cannot see and you are slowly fading
So hold this down for me
I've seen your moral color scheme swiftly turning grey
And I'm afraid

Protector
04:40
|

Even when you go to sleep, don't forget me
Could have been your silhouette, dark and mysterious yet
Fire, fire, fire to your engine that's not burned bright since I got home.
Even when you turn to go, baby don't leave a note
I've seen you leave too many times not to know
I'm at fault and I know i'm to blame
But I can't sleep tonight, no I can't, sleep the same
If I could play this melody each night I would, before you go to sleep
To keep the demons away from your dreams
Cuz I know, yeah I know, what it's like to sleep alone with no one to hold
So protector, protect me tonight.
Cuz you sneak in and out of every part of me
You fade in and out of all of my dreams
So protector, protect me tonight.
Even when I'm not there to guide you
I will be that solar system right above you
So play that song for me, play it please, I know I can be more.
I can be more.
If I could play this melody each night I would, before you go to sleep
To keep the demons away from your dreams
Cuz I know, yeah I know, what it's like to sleep alone with no one to hold
So protector, protect me tonight.
Cuz you sneak in and out of every part of me
You fade in and out of all of my dreams
So protector, protect me tonight.
(Stay away from my dreams, stay away from me)
Protector, protect me tonight
Cuz my thoughts have wasted and all of my time has been spent
Oh protector, protect me tonight
Protector, protect me tonight.

Mondays

I wish to abide by the waves
Let them cover my skin in salt and stay
A member of this under water family
Surrounded by your beauty for all my days
So hold me at the bottom of your rope
Keep me suspended on your notes
And as long as I can hold you this close
I will know, I will know, I will know
I will stop living in this haze
I swear I will no longer wish away Mondays
And coffee with you, after staying up till 2
5am never felt so good
So hold me at the bottom of your rope
Keep me suspended on your notes
And as long as I can hold you this close
I will know, I will know, I will know

Monster
05:13

Did it make you feel like a man?
Did it make you feel stronger?
Did it make you feel like a monster?
Well I know, well I know, well I know you are.
Cuz I have cried so many tears here, but you wouldn't care
And I have lied to all my friends.
So how did it feel to take the life right out of me?
Cuz I can't eat and I can't sleep and I can't breathe.
I keep seeing your eyes as I fall asleep
And I keep feelin' your breath right next to me.
I can't believe this is me
No, I can't believe this is happening
But I'm lucky lucky lucky they say
But am I, tell me am I, am I really?
How did it feel to take the life right out of me?
Cuz I can't eat and I can't sleep and I can't breathe.
I keep seeing your eyes as I fall asleep
And I keep feelin' your breath right next to me.
So stop making sense cuz nothing makes sense not anymore
Stop the axis, these turns are killing me and I can't take these spins
Not anymore.
How did it feel to take the life right out of me?
Cuz I can't eat and I can't sleep and I can't breathe.
I keep seeing your eyes as I fall asleep
And I keep feelin' your breath right next to me.

Found
03:53

Tried to see what's real what's underneath
Tried to see the truth, the inbetween
But I would rather cover my neck in shame instead of face the day cuz
I thought love was so much more than sex and drugs and pioneers
I tried to cover up my lied
In pretty colored paints and
Porcelain covered liners but
You held tight and soaked up all my insight
For good, for bad, for I have
Found it here
I have found it here
Tried to teach myself not to be so cruel
Tried to bite my tongue and follow all the rules but
You said humans are frivolous creatures that live like sheep and no one
No one should be so timid and lifeless
I tried to cover up my lied
In pretty colored paints and
Porcelain covered liners but
You held tight and soaked up all my insight
For good, for bad, for I have
Found it here
I have found it here
You stole my sleep and I'll never have to dream a dream without you by my side
I tried to cover up my lied
In pretty colored paints and
Porcelain covered liners but
You held tight and soaked up all my insight
For good, for bad, for I have
Found it here
I have found it here
