Always

Even when you cannot hear my voice
You can hear the music in the distance
Try to fight but you don't have a choice
I become the focus of your vision
Cause I'm always
I'm by your side always
Always
I'm at your side always
Think of all the memories we will have
Think of all the trouble we'll get into
By the time we make up what we lack
I will take a moment just to show you
That I'm always
I'm by your side always
Always
I'm at your side always
When we look back fondly on the past
Of friends that may be gone but not forgotten
We'll remember what we saved for last
Best to eat the fruit before it's rotten
But I'm always
I'm by your side always
Always
I'm at your side always

This Weight

Weight you can put on my back
Put on my back this weight
Say you like me please
Nothing in between
Like me please, say you like me please
Only if you mean it
Take your lumps
I'm taking all of your bags with an order of pot stickers
Like me please, say you like me please
But only if you mean it
Weight you can put on my back
Put on my back this weight
I can take the weight
May I get your things
Got me on a string
Tell me please, I can be the kind
But only if you mean it
I'll do my best
But only if you give a little bit back to me
Tell me please, I can be the king
But only if it please you
Weight you can put on my back
Put on my back this weight
I can take the weight

She gave back all that
She could give
In a graceful moment
She lived
Get back on it
If you dare
Get back on it
If you can
The grateful only
Escape
The grateful only
Get paid
The Holy Moment
Is around
The Holy Moment
Is now
I won't get pulled in
To this fight
There's always been a
Left and Right
The dislocation
Of doubt
Circulating
Throughout
More absurd than
The Sublime
There's no such thing as
Time
Revolution
Renaissance
Evolution
Goes on
I don't want to talk about it
Hold your titles hold your comments
All your words could write a sonnet
Take your treasure I don't want it

See It For Yourself
03:14
|

In with the old we can't let go
Cling to your guns
The message is clear
The only thing you want to hear about
You wouldn't believe it
You would have to see it
They didn't want you to know about it
You have to see it for yourself
You won't believe it till you
You have to see it for yourself
You read it once
You heard from a friend
It couldn't be wrong if you agree with them
Maybe if you read it
You don't have to see it
They don't want you to think about it
You have to see it for yourself
You won't believe it till you
You have to see it for yourself
By the time we find out
If we were right we'll be ready to know
Or we could dance around it
In the end we'll have nothing to show
In with the old we can't let go
The veil is gone
You can pretend
Don't be alarmed if you lose a friend
Maybe you concede
That you can be deceived
Or maybe you just have to give a shit
You have to see it for yourself
You won't believe it till you
You have to see it for yourself
By the time we find out
If we were right we'll be ready to know
Or we could dance around it
In the end we'll have nothing to show
You have to see it for yourself

If It's Easier

It feels like we're making mistakes
It don't feel right
So why should I stay?
You know how it feels
It's like hanging on before the storm
Hanging around
My hearts beating more and more
If you know how I feel
You know I can't go on like this
You should know better
Hanging on
I feel alive when holding on for too long
It feels like we're making mistakes
It don't feel right
So why should I stay?
And I know why you should feel compelled
To make it all better
But I know that I can't go on like this
Right back in the storm
What gonna make us go back and back?
It feels like we're making mistakes
It don't feel right
So why should I stay?
All the best for all your battles
Keep on hanging on for
The hope and promise of your status
Keep on hanging on for
Too long
It feels like we're making mistakes
It don't feel right
So why should I stay?

Separate
03:39
|

|
Believing that you could find a way
That you could mind your place
Could disguise your face
Receiving the news that your whole life
Was really a device
A part of their destruction
You really did believe it
You did if for the children
You did it for religion
You were on a mission
You finally separate
You finally stepped away
Deceiving you for so damn long
Don't know right from wrong
Stuck around too long
The thing is you'd be better off alone
Take a path unknown
Until your eyes start glowing again
I'm not throwing stones
You have a lovely soul
You treat me like your own
I treat you like my own
You finally separate
You finally stepped away

Innocence
04:03
|

|
We're really far away
Give me a chance
I'm not always like this
Talking through open doors
Innocent
Lying on oaken floors
Skin sticking to the boards
Don't go
I need this
I need to give up the ghost
We're really far away

I Wonder
04:56

Together
We could rule the land
Together
We could understand
And get back
To that other place
Where you're gone
And then we'll do it again
'Til you're gone
And then we'll do it again
I'm not your lover
I'm not your friend
I'm just a poor boy
Until the end
Where did it all go wrong
I Wonder ?
Where did it all go wrong ?
Where did it all go wrong
I Wonder ?
Where did it all go wrong ?
Together
We could rule the land
Together
We could understand
And get back
To that other place
Where you're gone
And then we'll do it again
'Til you're gone
And then we'll do it again
I'm not a good one
I'm not that blessed
I'm just a cynic
Privileged at best
Where did it all go wrong
I Wonder ?
Where did it all go wrong ?
Where did it all go wrong
I Wonder ?
Where did it all go wrong ?

No I'm not really making it up
In my head
No I'm not gonna sleep it off
Till I'm dead
Just close your eyes
And feel awake
Just close your eyes
And feel
Hold on
