It's sublime that you get more tough
The more you sense that our death is coming
You're hitching a ride to the final stop
It's just a way to pretend you're living
Why do you think it can't happen again
Why do you think we're so indecisive
'cause in the end it's just your dream attacking dreams
There's still a future beneath the blame
Just like a life in repair you're hiding
Too great a cost to predict youre shame
Holding court with the years presiding
Why do you think we can't change it again
Why do you think we are past romancing
'cause in the end it's just your dream attacking dreams
Regret is a game where it's better to fail
Than to drown in your circumstances
Oh, it's cold comfort dreaming on nails
You're better off chasing second chances
Why do you think it can't happen again
'cause in the end it's just your dream attacking
Why do you think we are past romancing
'cause in the end it's just your dream attacking dreams

I've hidden from you for no reason at all
No context at all, just my habit, my fault
Just my habit to blame, no reason at all
Not earnest at all, just a pretext to thought
Your wish for peace, it's drowning down the well
That's where I fall
No rest for the weary, we've got them believing in fate
That's my way in the world
So the memories that keep us together
Are the same that bind us and tear us apart
So let's reach beyond our disconnect
And betray what we suspect
Are traitors and rebels for love
Are traitorous and rebels for love
This is our judge
Our private opinion has fully condemned us
A desolate justice
Isolation, come as a welcome state
But now there's no escape from within
From this prison within
Your wish for peace is running down the well
It's spinning 'round, that's where I fall
No test for the weary, we've got them believing in fate
That's my way in the world
They're rebels for love
That's my way in the world
A desolate justice
That's my way in the world
From a prison within
That's my way in the world
We're rebels for love

Pacing

Don't forget that you are more
Illusion/Disillusion
Looking busy to avoid them
To diminish them
Is to chastise them
A quick release to separate
Skin from skin provides relief
What begins within
Is to cherish them
In the wild, there's no control
Don't forget that you are more
Your wildness, it keeps you pacing
Don't forget that you are more
Wounded, and you're trapped again
The battles won and the battles spent
Live on to fight again, in the wild there's no control
Don't forget that you are more
Your wildness keeps you pacing

The Princess Mole

I sought you in a difficult season
Where I tended to hide my heart
But I telegraphed all my moves
To draw it nearer to you
There was no reason to be so fearless
You were hoping I'd be insincere
But I kept the hope that I'd choose
To draw away from you
I don't want to drop it, I don't want to drop it
It's just an old habit of mine
It's just a wound that I hid in my heart
Bleeding a drop at a time
Our forbidden love's in need of repair
But how can we reach past the tipping point
Reach past a three-point circumstance
To disconnect from you
We've resigned that there isn't any time
The moments we have are pregnant with the past
We're never too tired to explain
That it'll last, it'll last
I don't want to drop it, I don't want to drop it
It's just an old habit of mine
It's just a wound that I hid in my heart
Bleeding a drop at a time
We've resigned that there isn't any time
And the moments we have are pregnant with the past
We're never too tired to explain
That it'll last, it'll last
We'll spin it together 'til the collapse

The Ides

Trust the flag with a terrible deal
It's driving you hard over the hill
It's pushing you to a certain ugly truth
So lift high that flag you believe in
Taunting you snapping into the waves
It's leading you into a terrified bombing raid
It's a raging torrent throwing you down to the earth
Oh loyalty it's such a dirty word
You can measure your pain here by degrees
Oh sympathy is such a dirty word
You've left behind the blind asking the blind
Diving down to your bleached possessions
No idea of what you've hidden here
A sailor of your twisted night
broken by your twisted stare
So return to your careful crawling
You tell yourself there’s an easier way
But you can’t tell your friend from foe
There’s no escape from your poison airs
It's a raging torrent throwing you down to the earth
Oh sympathy it's such a dirty word
You can measure your pain here by degrees
Oh gratitude is such a dirty word
You've left behind the blind asking the blind
There's no feeling without meaning in the end
I have possession in the end
I have the passion in the end (in the end)
Diving down to your bleached possessions
No idea of what you've hidden here
A sailor of your twisted night
broken by your twisted stare
Oh loyalty is such a dirty word
You can measure your pain here by degrees
Oh sympathy is such a dirty word
You've left behind the blind asking the blind

I’m the Jack of a lonely trade I fear
I’ve mastered none that you seem to grow fond of
Well none worth a mention
Oh, we’re so unmentionable
Let’s see that show of hands that you really care
For anything worth crying over for real
For the one who’s everything
Anything worth mentioning
All that preening and pruning
Is more fun than the show
All of that terrible truth
Is as boring as love it's boring its way into love (unmentionable love)
I’m just a Simple man, and i’m begging you to breathe
Just dreaming of gathering just enough shadow
well just enough for shade
We’re so untouchable
Let’s see those dreams deferred
Long enough to breed
that neglect of contempt
Or at least enough to forget
It’s so unmentionable, or at least untouchable

The Strung-Outs

This is the way that I am, for the moment
This is the way that I approach you
This is the way that I delight you
Shining on you from so far away
This is the way that you absorb me
So meagerly you try to reflect me, oh no
You radiate me so coldly again
You briefly satisfy me
This is a shout out to reach all my strung outs
This is for the art of escape
This, our malaise that we tore from the same fate
Oh it’s fatal, oh it’s fatal
This is a shout out to reach all my strung outs
This is for the art of escape, yeah
This, our malaise that we sold out for praise
Oh it’s fatal, oh it’s fatal
Oh it’s fatal, when you say it’s over it’s only over
When you say it’s over
This didn’t take too long to find an error
Or even a newborn condition to set in
It didn’t take any new recognition
To liberate, to court a new flame
This is the haze that covers it all, oh well
This is a well tempered point it’s changing
To set aflame setting fire to the ash that falls on a new path
This is a shout out to reach all my strung outs
This is for the art of escape
This, our malaise that we tore from the same fate
Oh it’s fatal, oh it’s fatal
This is a shout out to reach all my strung outs
This is for the art of escape, yeah
This, our malaise that we sold out for praise
Oh it’s fatal, oh it’s fatal
Oh it’s fatal
But it’s only over when you say it’s over...

Hello, Strollover

I believe that you’re spinning around
You’re spinning around in your make believe
You are a person of interest
with no personal interest in staying sane
You, you’re stepping in time, you’re out of step
you never regret, to let it all go
you’re never one to quit, so what will happen to it
when you let it all go?
You’re just using what is tried and true
But what is tried and true is really grinding you down
You never guarded your heart
You never looked to your heart to stay the same
You, you’re stepping in time, you’re out of step
you never regret, to let it all go
you’re never one to quit, so what will happen to it
when you let it all go?
You cut it quick, you cut it loose, so let’s be free from dignity (2x) Let’s be free
Sure, you’re sugary sweet
You say all the sweet words that no one really wants to hear
Oh you’re not a bother
But it’s such a bother to pour some salt on the wound
You, you’re stepping in time, you’re out of step
you never regret, to let it all go
you’re never one to quit, so what will happen to it
when you let it all go? (2x)
