how could i expect this? go on and push me to the edge. believe it's so suggestive. i never knew i had no chance. why can't we fall asleep, instead of falling for cheap tricks? i know it has nothing to do with me. but i'll be damned if i give you any credit. i heard you were bragging. i heard you were chatting with my old friends. i heard you were laughing. i heard you were cracking up about the mishappenings. i couldn't really care for them. don't make me go through that again. i guess it's all a choice if i give you a voice in my situation. you're so very welcome. no, i cannot help them. it's out of my hands.

no crying. darling, i've been feeling so alone. i couldn't imagine a life so gloom. knowing it all in silence. kindly. violently blind. no more will i find i can waste any time. i'd like you to ride with me to the edge of the seat. and nowhere i could be without a dream. without you next to me. violet. ultraviolet. so many times i could rewind the things in my head. but i know it could be dead. dead like the rain. dead like the winter rose. dead like my name. dead like all i've known. i know i can't move on. so i try to realize anything. i can wrack my mind. wrapped around your finger. like i could be anything without a sense of purposing. and so i give all i can give to all i love. but it never feels like its quite enough. who said that? who thought that in the first place? drag me down. drag me out. drag me behind everything. nothing seems to sing to me. like i could sing to every crowd in every place. so loud. but i'd rather just keep my lips solemnly shut. nothing i have known. another way to come home. another way to celebrate the things i've kept. and i still haven't kept you yet.

they said they'd leave it up to me. and me alone. and no i don't bite. they said they wanted me to see. but i don't see a thing that i've left behind. no certainty i'm personally responsible for all the ways you've been fooled. and all the ways you've been cooled down. cool down. rule it out. follow the rules now. rule it out. if you're not following the rules you'll get shut down. possibility. stringing me along. singing me a song. make it personal. make it last. make it matter. kiss your ass goodbye. move on to the next guy. move on to the next lie. lie to me. i guess it's a little more interesting. are you interested? i guess i may have lost it. but i'm willing to bet i can get back on. and i'm willing to bet i can gamble on the side of my best faces. my resting places. my grave. digging my life away.

-stalemate-
how could i expect this?
go on and push me to the edge.
believe it's so suggestive.
i never knew i had no chance.
why can't we fall asleep, instead of falling for cheap tricks?
i know it has nothing to do with me.
but i'll be damned if i give you any credit.
i heard you were bragging.
i heard you were chatting with my old friends.
i heard you were laughing.
i heard you were cracking up about the mishappenings.
i couldn't really care for them.
don't make me go through that again.
i guess it's all a choice if i give you a voice in my situation.
you're so very welcome.
no, i cannot help them.
it's out of my hands.

-violet-
no crying.
darling, i've been feeling so alone.
i couldn't imagine a life so gloom.
knowing it all in silence.
kindly.
violently blind.
no more will i find i can waste any time.
i'd like you to ride with me to the edge of the seat.
and nowhere i could be without a dream.
without you next to me.
violet.
ultraviolet.
so many times i could rewind the things in my head.
but i know it could be dead.
dead like the rain.
dead like the winter rose.
dead like my name.
dead like all i've known.
i know i can't move on.
so i try to realize anything.
i can wrack my mind.
wrapped around your finger.
like i could be anything without a sense of purposing.
and so i give all i can give to all i love.
but it never feels like its quite enough.
who said that? who thought that in the first place?
drag me down.
drag me out.
drag me behind everything.
nothing seems to sing to me.
like i could sing to every crowd in every place.
so loud.
but i'd rather just keep my lips solemnly shut.
nothing i have known.
another way to come home.
another way to celebrate the things i've kept.
and i still haven't kept you yet.


-pick-
they said they'd leave it up to me.
and me alone.
and no i don't bite.
they said they wanted me to see.
but i don't see a thing that i've left behind.
no certainty i'm personally responsible for all the ways you've been fooled.
and all the ways you've been cooled down.
cool down.
rule it out.
follow the rules now.
rule it out.
if you're not following the rules you'll get shut down.
possibility.
stringing me along.
singing me a song.
make it personal.
make it last.
make it matter.
kiss your ass goodbye.
move on to the next guy.
move on to the next lie.
lie to me.
i guess it's a little more interesting.
are you interested?
i guess i may have lost it.
but i'm willing to bet i can get back on.
and i'm willing to bet i can gamble on the side of my best faces.
my resting places.
my grave.
digging my life away.
