Silver Lining

Father you know, when you've
Fallen, the top rope, swings
Back and forth, oh back and forth
Off to your path, in the frame
Calling, just a whisper
No one hears
Sew it up, the thread is new
I bought it, with blood I took from you
Simple your words so soothing now
Bureau's open
My heart is blowing
Sullen, candid, stranded in your, stranded in your gulf
You want, then let go
They sold, it all goes someday
All goes someday
No matter if you're running straight or you're the law man
You're surrounded
Stoned while you get it, while you die for what you love
So your time is finally sharp enough
So jam it, courtesy is what it is now
Always dance with the marigolds
Bleeding so beautiful
Always dance with the marigolds
So beautiful
There goes your silver lining
Pushing down your mind
Believe it if they're lying
Don't tell me, don't, don't, don't, don't
Hold me that, that silver lining
I'm here until we end
Don't make me worry, don't make me care
Don't make me care

Tentative

All the while, tentative
All life stares
Colliery the fire burns
Shovel verve as you move
Who now told me that comedy
Was William it was, my manners run
Soil the cot, tentative
The blasts are so loud how can you hear reason
Where's my sedative
Stop with the invasion,
Feels too good, to be alive and well
With you and all your flaws
How long will you wait?
Does it matter?
It's this part you like
To pause
All the tools they cannot fill
Some have lost their bite
In the cold frame seeds will grow
But patience lies awake at night and beckons for your wandering eyes
Where's my sedative
Stop with the invasion,
Feels too good, to be alive and well
With you and all your flaws
All your flaws
All the while, tentative
All life stares

Lines
Form around the base
My pulse is hot, squeeze out my embrace
No, no, no, no, no, no
Too fast, too fast, can you make it slow
Here I am, explode with you, and I hold on, hold on
it's too late, I'm trapped inside
Come separate me from myself
I know it now, I feel it how can you deny when you want the ache
And there's a difference in your warning
Love
Sharpens in your belly
Take my knife, please, please
Stop, the sweat it chokes us both
We smile, and then we fold
Counterfeit, no that's not it, not that's not it, no that's not...
it's too late, I'm trapped inside
Come separate me from myself
I know it now, I feel it how can you deny when you want the ache
And there's a difference in your warning
Yes there's a difference in your, hey
It's too late, you want this game
Come die with me in pleasure's pain
When we come up for air I see the light inside your eyes
If this is what we came here for, let's dive, maybe a deeper course
Collapse, divide, unite, and fly
Let's fly, come die in me
Let's fly, come up for air
Let's die, separate me from myself
Let's fly, this knife will break inside
Your heart and mind
Let's fly, on a moment's pause
And your eyes speak the same as mine
And they say, and they say, and they say, and they say, and they say
There's a difference in your warning

For Walking

Don't know what to call it
But I know what it is
Idle is the secret
But I will go on ahead
And surrender's coming down
Yes you've been long and gone for it
I took it along and
You tore me down
It tore me down
You tore me down
And it's the secrets
Oh when we call are there
It's a revel, it's a way we know we're here
And the world will come unto ya
Some will even stop and stare
When the world reveals its secrets
Will I care
Oh will I care
Oh can I care
I want, want to control the way it goes
Call it in and lead this cult
Signal out, what you do you want
I know, explode
Every, every conscience cough it up
Satisfied but just not enough
Where we are is only part of who will be
Look in the mirror don't color it black
You can't deny what's looking back
You're not just an ordinary cut
Too late to walk away from what you've become now
Too late for walking and you've already seen your god
Too late for walking, you're no ordinary
Too late for walking and you've already seen your god
Too late for walking, you're no ordinary
Too late for walking and you've already seen your god
Too late for walking, you're no ordinary
Too late for walking and you've already seen your god
Too late for walking, you're not cut the same
Too late for walking and you've already seen your god
Too late for walking, you're no ordinary...
Too late for walking and you've already seen your god
Too late for walking and you're not cut the same
