• Amazed Again - listen lyrics

  looked for somebody for a long time
  met all the other ones along the way
  everyone taught me little something
  everyone took a little piece away
  can't help but be changed by it
  let's be changed again
  
  lightning contains runaway breakdown
  humming brightly like a silvertone
  i'm shaking so hard that i vibrate
  it burns a path along the chain
  it flies right through me
  
  amazed, amazed again
  amazed, amazed again
  
  all that you are
  exploding into me
  empty your heart
  of everything
  
  sometimes the waves are coming at you
  ten feet tall
  and they will not wait
  if they're unrideable then don't ride
  you might be under for a while
  you will be humbled
  
  amazed, amazed again
  amazed, amazed again
  amazed, amazed again
  amazed, amazed again

• Breathing Room - listen lyrics

  what one chooses to believe is
  an outline of a picture
  and the content is a creature
  that too few will come to know
  
  when the judgement hits the pavement
  and the truths have all been told
  our illusions of uniqueness
  will dissipate like smoke.
  
  Save a little bit of room for me
  make way
  leave a little bit of air to breathe leave
  
  breathing breathing room
  breathing breathing room
  breathing breathing room
  
  while we slumber in our hovels
  various unknowns
  weave a web that will contain us
  but of which we have no control
  
  considering the chaos
  that conducts each waking moment
  it's a wonder that we bother
  to put things in their place
  
  what we spent all of that energy
  attempting to maintain
  temporarily who we thought we were
  the nature of our being
  is so vailed to us this far
  the world would try to hold us
  but we won't be here for long
  
  breathing breathing room
  breathing breathing room
  breathing breathing room
  

• Butcher - listen lyrics

  so what's the difference
  between the hearts of gold
  and all the souls
  that pave the freeway to the bank?
  the fading line between the user and the used
  the war of us and them
  me and you
  
  ask the butcher
  how does the idea
  of a merciful heart
  sit with you?
  forget the preacher
  he's going on about the lion and the lamb
  sleeping side by side
  you'd have the be naive to think they would survive
  
  turn wine to water
  we play beneath the waves
  where no one's saved
  sand is black and the sharks can't sleep
  the bigger ones consume the little ones
  so if you're small
  that's all you need to know
  ask the butcher
  how does the idea
  of a merciful heart
  sit with you?
  don't ask the preacher
  he's going on about the lion and the lamb
  sleeping side by side
  sleeping side by side
  sleeping side by side
  
  love eats hate
  and nirvana means
  to be extinguished
  it's true
  death comes down
  there's no escape
  might as well love
  what you do
  

• Emptier Things - listen lyrics

  keep my mouth shut like you said
  or else
  out come stupid stupid things
  to spoil the party of
  all the dealers and satellites
  i should
  should have learned to entertain, manipulate
  learn to play
  play to win
  
  onto empty, empty emptier things
  onto empty, empty emptier things
  
  red, red sand
  a rising tornado of bees
  following the scent of their queen
  all the things you showed me
  all of the things
  i had never seen
  
  onto empty, empty emptier things
  onto empty, empty emptier things
  onto empty, empty emptier things
  

• Everything - listen lyrics

  anyway, i was trying to say
  something else entirely
  too much truth turns you off
  guess it's time to learn to stop trying
  it's become a way of life
  to be misunderstood
  no one wants to tell it like it is
  i wish they would
  
  tell me something i don't know
  dont't be tamed
  show me everything
  uncontained
  i can't wait
  i just want
  what you want
  i just want
  what you want
  everything
  
  once upon a time there was no time at all
  i watched the line of smoke
  unwind across the room
  lacking all ambition
  busy with a vision
  balanced on a needle in a hurricane
  
  tell me something i don't know
  dont't be tamed
  show me everything
  dressed in flame
  i can't wait
  i just want
  what you want
  i just want
  what you want
  everything
  

• Invisible - listen lyrics

  fall fell and enough is enough
  days on end just burning up
  walls to climb and debt to pay
  never meant to live that way
  
  stars at night won't shine for me
  when nothing moves and nothings free
  traffic jams outside my door
  stuck in time just making smoke
  
  i woke up today invisible
  never really was too visible
  stand around just like a ghost
  calmly witnessing
  i have seen the cars collide
  everyone seems so surprised
  inevitably you don't have to say anything
  i never say anything intentionally
  eventually i will
  
  winters voice scrapes out a song
  the days are flat
  and the nights are long
  and you just submit to everything
  when you cannot speak and you cannot sing
  all the babies underground
  just counting days and sleeping sound
  strangers are parading by
  with guns to load and flags to fly
  
  i woke up today invisible
  never was too visible
  stand around just like a ghost
  calmly witnessing
  i have seen the stars collide
  everyone seems so surprised, and nobody sees
  inevitably you don't have to do anything
  i never do anything intentionally
  eventually i will
  

• Memory Fails - listen lyrics

  just take a pill
  be someone rational
  numb as a stone, hid by a veil
  born to a world: incomprehensible
  lock all the doors
  sharpen your nails
  
  memory fails
  what was the point again?
  memory fails
  hope's still alive
  let's untie her then
  memory fails
  
  wish i could be alone together
  so many others
  why do i bother?
  so sick of love, i reject everything
  he always comes to me
  he always comes
  
  let's play a game with broken telephones
  mirrors that speak
  forget what you're shown
  i play with fire
  some say it plays with me
  show me your soul
  it wants to be known
  
  memory fails
  what was the point again?
  memory fails
  hope's still alive
  let's untie her then
  still alive
  still alive
  still alive
  still alive

• Now - listen lyrics

  promises are made to be broken
  just like bones are made to be broken
  you haven't lived unti you felt it
  in fact your hardly real
  here is a new abraision for the tender heart
  here's some anesthetic at the cost
  
  i have to reimind myself
  that was then
  here comes now
  
  maybe i imagined the
  the way that you looked at me
  cuz the mind has a way
  of rewriting and sweetening history
  i have to need to remind myself
  that when a thing seems
  too good to be true
  it is, it always is
  
  i have to reimind myself
  that was then
  here comes now
  

• Wait Here - listen lyrics

  wait here just a little bit longer
  you love making me wait i know
  it's cruel
  i like that about you
  and ya say you can't help it
  just born that way
  nobody chooses
  born to break
  
  wonderful, wonderful
  help yourself, help myself
  born to break
  
  finally silence
  how many locked doors
  stole you from the jury's that surround
  and you say you can take it
  or leave it just as well
  but things seem otherwise
  
  wonderful, wonderful
  help yourself, help myself
  born to break
  

• White - listen lyrics

  so chalk it up to the sumertime
  things happen so fast in the summertime
  welcome to the ivory tower
  to the inner sanctum
  
  finally the real
  brand it in
  the whites of your hands
  breathe it in to me
  brand it in
  the whites of your hands
  
  almost twenty years
  smiling in my dream
  you come
  such a waste of
  something so pure
  
  finally the real
  brand it in
  the whites of your hands
  breathe it in to me
  brand it in
  the whites of your hands
