I’ve been runnin’ round in circles for so long Buspirone underneath my tongue All I could ever want is to think straight To sit still and never fall back down through the ground But don’t be as alarmed as me Because fear is habit forming As our world’s colors distort and bleed together I’ll heal myself through you In the morning weather I think I’m owed Something better And if I wait here It’ll crawl to me As our world’s colors distort and bleed together I’ll heal myself through you In the morning weather x2 Don’t be as alarmed as me Fear is habit forming

No Shadow 03:48
Open up I know it’s not fair A heart that beats at 30% Comes out of the blue Black and White Is the color of everything In this world But if that’s true Then there’s no shadow beneath you Or above me And no reason between You don’t have to tell me how it feels In the center of your chest Your stomach falls in Black and White Is the color of everything With no shadow The keys are in the car But no one Is in the driver’s seat I wanna be there when the wheels turn I wanna feel it when we burn You don’t have to Tell me anything Black and White Is the color of everything With no shadow

In my plastic world I’ve seen thoughts bounce Off fake hardwood floors Up to the bare white walls It confuses me Why I suffer When this place is only momentary How will I know When I just want a home? It’s something that I need now But what if I miss out? In my plastic world I’ve felt my heart bend To and fro warmth As we share a bed It depresses me How we shuffle And move right on When shit crumbles I won’t mind If you don’t mind There’s a penalty For living in the temporary Pretend to solve all the problems Then fill our holes with smoke I know I’m still young And age is relative But soon I’ll be bald and gray I hope I’m home then I won’t mind If you don’t mind There’s a penalty For living in the temporary Pretend to solve all the problems Then fill our holes with smoke In time the plastic will melt And form solid concrete But who can say their honest When we hide as much as we show? Yeah
4.
Under blue skies The world will die Through white noise I heard you cry My heart is beating bad As my soul is swollen Leaking like you said I would My hands are stolen With bright red lips And those sultry eyes Oh, and what I’d give Just to, to sympathize Oh dear, can you come down? You’re just upstairs and close to turning around Sober and dry Stripped of rights Hell ain’t here But its damn sure near Oh dear, can you come down? You’re just upstairs and close to turning around Fear knocks off my crown I think we’re somewhere waiting to be found The smoke gets in your eyes Lazy lips birthed another lie Everyone was wrong Where have your friends gone?
5.
Outside my head And then feel it float away I think you are Getting tired of having to say Please don't worry about those pins and needles They’ll make you sick Try not to think twice about your heart's rhythm At least not tonight Oh, aiming down to meet my eyes Always sell yourself on the punchline Thinking is easy And fear, it goes both ways The color is red But sometimes purple and gray Please don't worry about those pins and needles They’ll make you sick Try not to think twice about your heart's rhythm At least not tonight There comes a time When time starts coming for you I was surprised to see what I was worth I realized Slow like a cigarette burns It's in my blood In my lungs In something you said Oh, aiming down to meet my eyes Always waiting for that punchline Oh, Looking forward to walk away But never escaping this mess I’ve made

Truth & Time 03:26
He keeps himself awake at night With what could have beens And maybe you think of him And also maybe you don’t He bills himself as a good man And sometimes he even convinces himself of that He thinks that maybe a drink would help But the coward’s afraid if he starts He won’t stop Now he waits his turn like everyone Just ordinary and self loathing (Ooooooh) Fully aware that he's the problem No intent to change Content with making the same mistakes Truth and time are just Declining parallel lines Joy and pride will collide At least a thousand times I was just held back A victim of circumstance I believed that, didn't I? Now what does that say about me? Now I wait my turn like everyone Just ordinary and self loathing (Ooooooh) Fully aware that I’m the problem No intent to change Content with making the same mistakes But that’s the way it is Convince myself I’m behind the wheel Because I’m a big man and I have to win It’s just the way it is
