The Arsonist
She said she likes fire engines
But that ain’t the truth
She liked the boys in uniform
But what can you do?
Man this feels so familiar
Egos starting to bruise
My jealous mind is a killer
That comes alive with the blues
Trying to stay on the tracks of the mainline
And then as if right on cue
A bit of truth wrapped in a white lie
Another turn of the screw
Light on the details and short on the fuse
Severed our ties, said our goodbyes
Tired of sorting the truth from the lies
She started to cry, got lost in her eyes
Numbed by the words she spoke through the sighs
She wears a disguise by playing the friend
She runs down the clock just to start it again
Then I look in those eyes…Oh man!
Gonna throw the switch on the mainline
I’m gonna turn this around
Gonna light a fire to the grapevine
I’m gonna turn this around
Rebuild the trust and the regard
I’m gonna turn this around
Or drag the whole thing out to the graveyard
Where I’ll burn it all down, down, down, down!

The View From Orbit

The view from orbit
I like the sounds that anger makes
The words are loud
The fist comes down
The tension breaks
From out of bounds
From deep within
Just walk away
You lost today
Consuming all the rational thoughts
Consume me, transport me
Make me feel indifferent
I don’t even answer my calls anymore
I don’t even answer my calls anymore
Climb aboard, there’s more to see
I adore you
Just gotta figure out how to show you

Left Unsaid
Low energy
No memory
Useless waste of time
Consuming me
Holding my head
Taking my time
Fall out of bed
Fall into line
It should have all been left unsaid
You took as much as you could get
Forget it
Regret it
Pathetic
Pass the phone this call’s for me
What’s that you said
Talking in rhymes
Over my head
Maybe this time
It should have all been left unsaid
You took as much as you could get
Self
Self-fulfilled prophecy
Blood was spilled
Like you said
It should have all been left unsaid
You took as much as you could get
I made a bet and now I regret it
Self-fulfilled

Reel It In

Reel it in
Ate stems every night for a month
Traced colors and lines
And lost touch
But near the end
I finally reeled it in
The need analyze so much
The search for meaning and logic
I suppose the reason is
The line will reach an end
Reel it in
It I can
Reel it in
If I can
We started bright
We started to blur
The light dissolves
The light endures
Reach for the sky
Reaching for the sky
To find a savior
I will not betray you
I was trying to save you
No need to agonize so much
Freeze every moment in time
Cause the line will reach an end
Time to reel it in
Reel it in
I can

The Clock

The Clock
Ticking down, ticking down now
Ticking down, clock is ticking down
Ticking down, ticking down now
Ticking down, the clock is ticking down
The clock is slowly winding down
It’s getting hard to focus now
The vision’s gone
There’s only sound
It’s coming ‘round
It’s going down
Do you believe now?
You all look the same
Same disguise on a different face
Nothing to gain
Feeling lost
But rarely feeling shame
They’re probably drowning out the sound
From the endless bouts of hope and doubt
The fearlessness of holding out
We won’t bow down
We don’t know how
Hey, look at me now!
We’re always down
Come around
It’s a big sound
Come and drown
We’re always down
It’s allowed
We’re at peace now
We were so close
But we struggled to remain
Pulled the plug
Baby down the drain
When you’re down
When you’re down
You can drown
I look around
Look around
Where are you now?
When you’re down
You can drown
I look around
Look around
Look around
Where are you now?
We’re always down
We’re always down
We’re always down
We’re always down
Do you believe now?
