I just wanna make it
but i’m tired and out of breath
i’m scared that you'll hate it
but it’s all that I've got left
don’t worry bout it maybe
Someday well be at our best
I’ve been losing sight lately
but baby it’s this or death
I'm off to La
told them I was thru
I was torn up dopesick & blue
I can’t ever go back that way
tongue tied & comfortable
Is Where i'll stay
I can't seem to shake it
dont lie and rise above
homesick & wasted
I climb up just to fall
don’t worry bout it maybe
someday we’ll be at our best
I’ve been losing sight lately
but baby it’s this or death
I'm off to La
Told them I was thru
I was torn up dopesick & blue
I can’t ever go back that way
Tongue tied & comfortable
Is where i’ll stay

will you listen give me time my love
I cannot bear the morning sun
I love the way you hold me down
were u wishing for a higher road
the one i promised soon would come
now all i taste is blood in my mouth
now all i taste is blood in my mouth
disappointment strikes the fiery ground
no thoughts or sounds follow me out
this bleak outlook on life
blue sky's a guise
I look inside myself
your mirrors blackened now
your mirrors blackened now
then you dance so gracefully your life
removes the ugliness i hide
but i fear one day ill let you down
torn between the missing piece
the constant beat i'm always
apologizing in my sleep
i've been dreaming of some relief
disappointment strikes the fiery ground
no thoughts or sounds follow me out
this bleak outlook on life
blue sky's a guise
I look inside myself
your mirrors blackened now
your mirrors blackened now
you're feeling high you're feeing low
you're feeling hot you're feeling cold
will you listen give me time my love
I cannot bear the morning sun
I love the way you hold me down

Hourglass Sand

i was wishing some highway would take us away
seems so often the night is our only escape
I've been drinking trying to soften the pain
days feel wasted watching the world melt away
days feel wasted watching the world melt away
oooooh
i was searching for truth when yr light caught my eye
then night fell the dream bit me mouth open wide
keep losing my words & my will to survive
i could be wasting my breath trying to stay in your life
am i wasting my breath trying to stay in your life
oooooh
i was awakened from sleep and delivered the news
seems an old friend was taken another too soon
with the wind at my back and a blade in my hand
i wait while the day becomes hourglass sand
i wait while the day becomes hourglass sand
oooooooh

Left To Rest

don't hurt yourself
digging all those holes in the yard
don't worry bout ghosts they don't walk thru the morning hours
dark idling in the back of your mind
at night when your lost he don't care that you’re mine
he don't care
I want none of this shame
I want none of those threats
old anger old names
just leave us leave us to rest
anxious enough picking at what was causing harm
don't follow those words they'll hurt us both
in the morning hours
dark idling in the back of your mind
at night when you're lost he don't care that you're mine
he don't care
i want none of this shame
i want none of those threats
old anger old names
just leave us leave us to rest
say my name
your silhouette of sorrow fades
