Dizzy spells, caught in my personal hell
I fell short, caught up wondering what life was for
Fragile minds, clawing my eyes out searching for a sign
But all I saw, were man made scratches all on the wall

Mister doctor please come quick
I fear I am growing sick
All these thoughts run through my head
I can not allow it
Images flash through my brain
Faster than a bullet train
Oh my dear what have I done?
I think I am going insane
But I see you alone on that television screen
And I hope that someday I will make it inside of your dreams
We can start a life, it's my twisted fantasy
I'm messed up in the head, but that's alright with me
Daily life is such a bore
I think there is a little bit more than
Waking up and laying down
That's what entertainment's for
People tell me I should know they say
Life isn't full of rainbows
But they will never understand
I'm just here to enjoy the show
But I see you alone on that television screen
And I hope that someday I will make it inside of your dreams
We can start a life, it's my twisted fantasy
I'm messed up in the head, but that's alright with me

The Fall

Sometimes I fear the only thing holding me down is gravity
And maybe I'm not as important as I think I used to be
I've realized that people won't wait for you once you turn away
And by the time you come back it could be too late
I'm breaking down
Slowly but surely I'm losing my mind
Without a sound
My peak has now passed and I'm wasting time
I can say falling in love is the greatest thing now
But after the the joy is the falling out
I'm stuck between loneliness and telling the truth
Loving someone is a hard thing to do
I'm breaking down
Slowly but surely I'm losing my mind
Without a sound
My peak has now passed and I'm wasting time
Grieving over things that can't be repeated
Mindless numbing's got me defeated
I can sit still, and the world is still going to spin
When I stand back up worn ties will be hard to mend
But I'm happy now, I tell myself five times a day
But with every day I fear my purpose slowly slips away
I'm getting tired of the battles in my head
The comfort of dependency and crying in my bed
Is this the way that I want to be living my life?
Is it written in stone, can I dig my way out to make things alright?

Crushin'

You slither like a snake through this maze that I've made
Breaking down my walls with your pretty words and pretty face
It scares me to think that I could fall in love again
Because broken hearts can take a toll on my accomplishments
All around me lights are flickering your name
Like the universe believes that we should be in the same place
But your thoughts are the ones that I really want to know
Is this battle worth fighting for, can you be won?
Oh I see something the believe in
And oh, maybe this world isn't dark as it seems
So I will give it a shot
If I'm completely honest as I go to sleep
I think about you in hopes you'd enter my dreams
That may sound corny, but it's the best form of therapy
For a cynical thinker dying to be set free
Oh I see something the believe in
And oh, maybe this world isn't dark as it seems
So I will give it a shot
If you cannot say yes, then answer anyways
Cause I would rather die, than not know what you'd say
Oh I see something the believe in
And oh, maybe this world isn't dark as it seems
So I will give it a shot

Jet Planes

Jet planes leave a stream in the sky
Like a handwritten line an invitation to fly
Oh my now I'm up so high
It's my dream, I have wings and now I'm coming alive
Coming alive
Oh I can't see straight anymore
I am falling faster than ever before
And I can't deal with these weights on my ankles right now
Right now
My chin is pointing towards the sun
My eyes envy the birds I want to be like one
And spend my days soaring through the clouds and singing
Singing
Jet planes leave a stream in the sky
Like a handwritten line an invitation to fly
Oh my now I'm up so high
It's my dream, I have wings and now I'm coming alive
Coming alive
Fresh air blowing all through my hair
I'll go faster, a dare
The thrill beyond all compare
The land now seems all so bare
I can't help but to stare
What a tragic affair
Tragic affair
School feels like it's all a haze
Rain is falling and calling my name
I need to fly through showers in the sky
In the sky
My shoulders are beginning to itch
Feathers bursting through like a stitch
Angels smiling and calling me up high to play
To play
Jet planes leave a stream in the sky
Like a handwritten line an invitation to fly
Oh my now I'm up so high
It's my dream, I have wings and now I'm coming alive
Coming alive
Fresh air blowing all through my hair
I'll go faster, a dare
The thrill beyond all compare
The land now seems all so bare
I can't help but to stare
What a tragic affair
Tragic affair
Oh, and oh and I can't feel my feet
My back is covered in two wings
And clouds are all that I can see
Down below the people on the ground
Don't know the joy the brain can bring
If only they open up their mind
Oh, and oh and I can't feel my feet
My back is covered in two wings
And clouds are all that I can see
Down below the people on the ground
Don't know the joy the brain can bring
If only they open up their mind
Jet planes leave a stream in the sky
Like a handwritten line an invitation to fly
Oh my now I'm up so high
It's my dream, I have wings and now I'm coming alive
Coming alive

Look Away
03:51
|

It's not a body
It’s a girl
With her own messed up world
Don’t mistake a little skin
For an invitation in
Just look away
The thought arrives
She undresses in my mind
I despise the way I see her
She’s in my head
But I want her in my bed
I’m a monster, there I said it
So look away
She’s someone’s daughter
Look away
She’s someone’s daughter
Look away
She is not the one to blame
Let those thoughts erase
This isn’t just
Nothing satisfies the lust
It’s a cheap fake replica of love
She’s got a face
And a name, a favorite game
She’s not an object
So look away
For God’s sake
And your sake
And her sake
A lot’s at stake
So look away
She’s someone’s daughter
Look away
She’s someone’s daughter
Look away
She’s somebody’s daughter
It’s not the way to follow the Father

Go on and throw it all away
Live a life of simple things
Nobody needs diamond rings
Happiness is..
Doing what you really love
Cash is just another drug
As long as you're having fun
Life...is...
Wonderful
Go on and sing it out loud
Wonderful
Nobody needs to follow a crowd
Take a trip to paradise
Comfort doesn't have a price
Don't have regrets or think twice
Forget..all of your
Past mistakes and darker roads
Nobody needs to know
Any of your lowest lows
Life is..
Wonderful
Go on and sing it out loud
Wonderful
Nobody needs to follow a crowd
Wonderful
Go on and hold your head up high
Wonderful
Breathe in the sunshine
wonderful...wonderful...wonderful
Wonderful
Go on and sing it out loud
Wonderful
Nobody needs to follow a crowd
Wonderful
Go on and hold your head up high
Wonderful
Breathe in the sunshine

I backed myself into a wall about a year ago
I promised myself loneliness buried under hope
Thinking joy can only be fulfilled when I'm alone
But Adam without Eve is a man without a home
14 months have come and past all the while I
Was frantically searching for some purpose in this life
I found it in the cross and then lost my sense of self
Building up my resume and tearing down my health
So I'll sing, And I will sing
For my future darling who I have yet to meet
I'll sing, oh my dear I will sing
For you my love my future love is surely beckoning
Thinking solitude would benefit my soul
Hurt my ego and left me with nowhere to go
Now I feel like it is time to pick it up again
I can't make a whole with only my two hands
Opening my mind to possibilities is fresh
Two hearts beating closely, what a beautiful mess
So I'll sing, And I will sing
For my future darling who I have yet to meet
I'll sing, oh my dear I will sing
I do not know you yet, but you are surely meant for me
So I’ll sing I’ll sing
I’ll sing I’ll sing
For my darling
