Sit outside your apt
I can’t take any of this
I’d do anything for you
Days over, I didn’t stop there
The sign says everything falls
Apart and into place for you
Savor the memories on the way down
And if this is how it goes
Keep all your secrets on the way out
Not gonna dig this ditch for you
Snipers in the building
Where do we go, when we go?
Days spent cleaning after you
Seams have come undone
Now what do we do?
I see through
The pain of chasing after you
Savor the memories on the way down
And if this is how it ends
Keep all your secrets on the way out
Not gonna dig this ditch for you
Buried hatchets watch them grow
From me…to you
She waited there for you
Keep all your secrets on the way down
Won’t you come back home?
Take all the memories on your way out
Won’t you come back home?

January, you're miles away
Was it wrong to let you in?
You were there out in the rain
It was always sink or swim
Do what you feel
You go and you take it away
You go and you give it away
You go and you take it away
Take my heart it don’t beat anyway
You go and you give it away
You go and you take it away
You go and you give it away
Take my heart it don’t beat anyway for you
April nights, I hear your name
Was it time to let this go?
You’re still there, out of the frame
It was always wearing thin
Say what you mean
Take my heart it don’t beat anyway
You go and you take it away
You go and you give it away
You go and you take it away
Take my heart it don’t beat anyway
Mean what you say
It’s the idea of sleeping
That keeps me up all night
Is this the bed we’re making?
Struggle to cover up
You go and you give it away
You go and you take it away
You go and you give it away
Take my heart it don’t beat anyway
You go and you take it away
You go and you give it away
You go and you take it away
Take my heart it don’t beat anyway for you
Say what you mean...

Blackouts

I can hear their footsteps, they’re calling out to me
I’ll take them for a walk, a place to bury one more stranger
We all eat lies when our hearts are so hungry
A quiet violence no words can escape from
On the way down, there’s no way out
Home is where the heart is, but nothing good can stay
Hold your breath now, take back the sound
Closet's a cemetery, it’s just the parts we play
Things aside I feel the same way
I break stride just to hear you say
You can’t take anything from me
Settle down into our caskets
The bright lights will separate
The promise in everything you said
These days are long, the nights are few
So cut your losses now
On the way down, there’s no way out
Home is where the heart is, but nothing good can stay
Hold your breath now, take back the sound
Closet's a cemetery, it’s just the parts we play
We measure meaning with sentiment
Faces on places we call home
Pavement floors that we once called our beds
Grew cold and faded like the rest
The blackouts have turned to grey
The street lights will separate
On the way down, there’s no way out
Home is where the heart is, but nothing good can stay
Hold your breath now, take back the sound
Closet's a cemetery, it’s just the parts we play

Daybreak

Straitjacket spread on bare skin
Fitting feels just right
Words crawl across the page
To let down and linger
Diffused the handheld look in your eyes
Buried down to the core
These backseat love affairs
On warm nights send shivers
A million day breaks
Couldn’t keep me from you
No place is safe
It’s only safer
They couldn’t keep me from you
Still voices linger
Broken skin beneath the sheets
Sweat pours over these nights
Inhale the evidence
It runs through my fingers
My fists are full of blisters
And borrowed lullabies
A hollow vacuum that you wore
A million day breaks
Couldn’t keep me from you
No place is safe
It’s only safer
They couldn’t keep me from you
Still voices linger
Couldn’t keep me from you...
You fill the space between the hole in my head

You can’t keep dancing with the devil and wonder why you’re still in hell?
Putting the rope around my neck
The stains are fresh
The fabric wet
And you, you crawl, you drag me around
And you, you run with scissors to feel alive
And you sink me
Raised by wolves and schoolyard gossip
Embrace every angle, I bought and sold it all for you
It’s too late, time is ticking
Arrived dead on the first date
Sold out without a clue from you
And you, you crawl, you drag me around
And you, you run with scissors to feel alive
And you sink me
Until we’re free to meet again
Wrap your words around my neck
We choke on better days
Don’t go back there anymore
And you, you crawl, you drag me around
And you, you run with scissors to feel alive
And you sink me
