Endless Night

And so the midnight moon; it guides my way,
and I know the price I'm gonna pay.
The day was done some time ago,
a distant memory from below.
I know there is an Endless Night,
somewhere beneath the stars that hide.
You will find nothing there but me,
and in my slumber I'll be free.

Fate (Don't Fail Me Now)
04:30
|

|
Fate don’t fail me now,
I’m holding you responsible,
Cause your service has been honourable.
I’ve tried to catch the wind,
Treading on sheets of ice,
Dark enough to dream of night.
Oh it’s not such an easy thing,
To mount above the moon and stars,
For I tried, and my sky fell apart.
And the windows of my mind,
Fractured into flakes of crystal,
Glowing with a deafening whisper.
You can’t chase what doesn’t exist,
I won't let you so try to resist.
Won’t complicate what I know,
Just wear it around my chest,
And forget about the rest.
Because there’s things that I believe,
Like too much sanity can kill a man,
Well either way I’ve never been a fan.
You can’t chase what doesn’t exist,
I won't let you so try to resist.
You can’t chase what doesn’t exist,
And I shouldn't let you, but if you insist.
Fate don’t fail me now,
Cause’ you have been dying.
And I've been trying,
I’m still trying.

My friends think that I need closure,
I don't mind,
They're pretty good at saying everything twice.
I count to one thousand just to help me sleep,
That's just me,
I never make it past seventy-three.
My doctor tells me I should stop smoking,
And I just say "Hey,
What do you know anyway?"
Some people say old habits die hard,
I do agree
But still somehow she managed to stop talking to me.
It's been 5 days since I last showered,
Oh what a mess,
It's not my current record though, I must confess.
I went to the store to buy a brand new soul,
All by myself,
It cost eleven dollar bills, I only had twelve.
I draw back the curtains and open the window,
I feel fine,
Admiring existence is past time of mine.
Wake up, around midday,
Oh no I'm late,
I was busy tryna count past seventy-eight.

Just Like Water
03:08
|

|
I see your gardens blossom,
With beauty untouched and free.
They tell me that you need me,
They whisper eternally.
The lazy river tumbles,
You wash my fears away.
The river bed it fools me,
And pulls me down to stay.
Just like water.
The puzzled fox is howling,
The troubled raven sighs.
The hour tells me it's time to fly,
So I'll leave you with this goodbye.
Just like water.

In Her Youth
03:33
|

In her youth, she wore fidelity like a wedding dress,
Kept a high head, but with no means to impress.
Took a misstep, and tripped up on the dress she wore too low,
Paying no mind to the echo.
Take it slow
Don't let go
Stay afloat
Blowing out the sea of flames, that he lit years ago,
Sticking to her skin, and reaching out to old shadows.
Smouldering in the misery, strangled by the words she wants to hear,
Life is what you make it, until what you make it disappears.
Take it slow
Don't let go
Stay afloat
Now swimming in the constellations, she skips back to a sunnier day,
Sitting underneath the surface, where all the details can wait.
Oh I can't hold you, I can only hide the stains,
Live in a reflection, of all that remains.
Scratch these words into your mind, then let us dance amidst the hurricane.
Lift the butterfly from your heart, then lay it down outside on the window pane.

Out of Blue
04:24

Well I, I knew I was missing something,
And you, you knew just what it was,
You, you think just like me,
Oh but I, I think just of you.
Cause we, we came out of blue,
And now, we’re nearing full bloom.
And time is wearing me thin,
But it’s fine, cause I ain’t giving in,
No you’re mine,
And that’s all I really do care.
I, I knew I was missing something,
And you, you knew what it was.
Cause you were missing it too,
But now I’m missing just you.
And time is wearing me thin,
But it’s fine, cause I ain’t giving in,
No you’re mine,
And that’s all I really do care.
