Away

|

|
What am I doing?
Give up the ghost
Dysfunctioning
I heard the most
What am I doing here?
When will I leave?
And if I ever do
Will it be enough for me?

Ten Year Old Me
02:00
|
|||
|
I don’t wanna know where everybody went
And I don’t really wanna know where everybody went and
I just wanna sit here typing into WordPad
I don’t know of anybody
That I wanna see, anybody
I don’t fuck with anybody
I don’t wanna see anybody
Killing me you’re killing me I can’t be around them
I go to read my worn-out bible underneath my bed
Cannot find the words to get words out of my head
Cannot find the words to get words out of my head

You Felt Bad
02:16
|
|||
|
When I asked around you said you felt bad
Said I didn’t care, then had a panic attack
But we were both so sad when I walked away
If you feel so bad, why not try it again?
If I heard the sound in my voice it all starts
Surrounded by friends
Will I see you again?
See if I care, that’s not who I am
I am confused I am scared I am something else again
I am not sure if you care but I am aware that when
You go with me to your planet
You will not stop and get off
To ensure me, assure me to complete my heart non-stop

True
01:48
|
|||
|
If we’re still pretending
That the world is all ending outside
Then there are a few things that
I have no reason to hide
I cannot keep pretending I am one of you
Two thousand years ago you’d see me too
I am nothing but a plant designated for a body
The kingdom of our heaven is at hand
What does that mean you ask?
I cannot tell you
I only see blue,
Space, moon, deep, true.
I am still of the world
I need to break through
It is so clear to me that now I need to shake you

These Days
03:54
|
|||
|
These days
I cannot be around you.
Wasted
I cannot talk about you.
They say
You aren’t allowed to be aware
A simple thought
A note, a word, a prayer
Should never be – it’s all for me
And I’m walking home
Envisioning another city
Where no one needs me – reclusive and withdrawn
It’ll never be a sacred place
Be a sacred place until we
Live beneath palm trees that don’t belong
|

Why?
00:54
|
|||
|
I know you
And I don’t know why
I think about you
And I will not try
To tell you how I think about you
Cause I don’t want to cry.
I don’t want to cry
I don’t want to feel like a child anymore

Lines
02:22
|
|||
|
I can see you fine
In a dream I had some peace of mind
I’m stuck between the words between the lines
I can’t stand to see
You look around and not see me
But that is just how it is gonna be
If I find the time
I’ll run away you’ll never find
Me between the words between the lines
Some will feel the need
To prove themselves with selfish deeds
It’s time we had a real awakening

UFO
03:33
|
|||
|
I want to get off the globe
Wanna take a ride on a UFO
There isn’t anything for me
There isn’t anyone for me
So why must I stay here? I just don’t know
You say the things you want
Like that you are in love and it feels so wrong
When will I look into the mirror,
See somebody that belongs here?
When will I learn to be? It’s been so long
What will it feel like
To leave without a goodbye?
And is it all right
If I meet some friends along the way?
Stop you to say hi
But never look you in the eye
And is it all right?
All right?
All right?

Comet
04:34
|
|||
|
I saw the sun rise in the sky
Over bottle glass house
It took it a while to get up high
And, on the ground where they once lived,
I am alive, I am inside
When underground, they've long since died
Everything comes to a close
No one will know you.
You were all alone.
But I see your face, see your clothes
I saw you tell a lie, and shut your eyes
But you opened your mouth
It took a while to open mine.
Everything comes to a close
When the comet hits, you’ll be all alone
But I’ll have a light, have a home

Salt
04:46
|
|||
|
Any time
All the time
Unraveling out of the earth
Tell me there's another way
Salt in my eyes
A far off place
Emptiness I've never felt – why?
As sea expands to sky
Drought will turn to snow
Emptiness I've never felt – why? I guess
There's always a first time to try
Water is calling me
Rising above my feet

|
If we have to go tonight,
If you say the words are right
I won't say what's on my mind
I'll be there
When we reach eternal life
I'm a husband, you're my wife
Make it somehow simpler than
Riding bikes for two
Riding bikes for two
Into the stars
Into my heart
Bikes for two
|

Clean
01:30
|
|||
|
I want to feel clean.
We want to say all the right things
Soap and brush and scrub and chemical,
Chemical
Say things we don't mean
Can I even die?
At the moment, I don't see why
Time is of the essence
Of the essence
What does it all mean?
Mustn't be surprised
Look into the whites of your eyes
If it's not exactly criminal,
Criminal
Somewhere inbetween
|

Something
04:32
|
|||
|
While the world
Comes to a close
I’m dreaming about driving around in the snow
And such is life
That’s how it goes
my tires get stuck,
It’s fucked
You’re right
I know.
When the sun goes down
I am glad that I’ll remember when
Can I make something out of nothing, again?
At least I know consistency
And it’s not like I owe anybody anything
It's over now

Suit of Clothes
03:04
|
|||
|
It's 64 degrees when I go to rest my head.
The world will stop its spinning round today
And oh, there is a future where I don't have a body
I don't have to have a body
I don't have to live this way.
So much love has been
I know that when they touch me
I cannot begin
I stare at the ceiling, I lie
I lie
I lie
It's time, I suppose
To take off my human suit of clothes
