Disappear
Just because you call on me,
I cannot hear, it's not the same.
I close my eyes and not look back.
All the things that I had to know.
Oh, nothing, just a thought that came.
You can't believe what I had to say,
all the things you'll never see.
I'll never be what you want me to be.
No, I can't disappear.
No, I can't.
Close your eyes and look at me.
I can't believe what I cannot see.
Everything is like a sieve.
Change your mind and you'll have to forgive,
and I can't disappear.
No, I can't.
No, I can't.
Flowers in December
Before I let you down again,
I just want to see you in your right.
I would've taken everything out on you.
I only thought you could understand.
They say every man goes blind in his heart,
and they say everybody steals somebody's heart away.
and I've got nothing more to say about it,
nothing more than you and me.
Send me a flower of your December.
Save me a dream of your candy wine.
I've got just one thing I can't give you,
just one more thing of mine.
They say every man goes blind in his heart,
and they say everybody steals somebody's heart away.
And I've been wondering why you let me down,
and I've been takin' it all for granted.
Rhymes of an Hour
Cannot hear what you're sayin'.
Could I tell you so?
And I can't leave my troubles,
and I'm goin' home.
Lyin' asleep, under deep, you know.
While the cold winter wavin',
why you stand there cold?
Of these things we were certain,
now we just don't know.
Lying asleep, under deep, I think that you know.
For the rhymes of an hour,
now I'm goin' home.
And I can't believe I'm nothin
'cause I'm comin' down.
Lyin' asleep, under deep, you know.
Cry, Cry
Cry, cry for you,
just like you knew I wouldn't do.
Cry, cry for you,
just like a song in the last light.
Should I leave it all away,
not like the kindness that you gave?
That's why I've never seemed the same behind your eyes.
I stood behind when no one asked me
and took you home after the fight.
I drove my car into the city lights,
drove down the road that I am blue.
Cry, cry for you.
That's what you think I wanna be.
Cry, cry for you.
An empty heart sets me free.
Cry, cry for you,
just like I knew I wouldn't do.
Cry cry for you,
just like a song in the last life.
Cry, cry for you,
just like I knew I wouldn't do.
Take Everything
I can't believe your thinkin'.
Say everyone's inside you.
Take everything, fake everything, say everything about me.
Oh, you... I won't break,
just because I don't wanna know.
Do you still become less make clear eyes pale?
You never got there, even though he said he will.
Sorry now that you've fallen from my eyes.
That's the truth.
Why tell them you vowed a thing?
Why tell them you vowed anything?
You're just waitin' for her to come apart.
You're just waitin' for her.
Take everything, fake everything, sing everything.
Still Cold
You already have a million hearts to break.
And all those times I never left you in the moonlight.
How come there's always someone else drivin' your car,
takin' you different places in the sunlight?
Still cold like the stars.
That's just the way you are.
Still cold like the stars.
You used to say your heart filled like a stone.
Now everything you ever wanted is your own.
Still cold like the stars.
That's just the way you are.
Still cold like the stars.
All Your Sisters
And I knew I was close to you. And I knew.
Catch me flyin' in the sun.
Catch me drinkin' of your wine.
I'm gonna put something in you,
make the devil feel surprised.
All your sisters wanna fly
around my golden sky
around my golden sky.
Just because you feel
hollow inside, it's real.
Just because you feel
hollow inside, it's real.
I'm gonna put something in you,
make the devil feel surprised,
make the devil feel suprised.
And I knew I was close to you. And I knew.
Catch me flyin' in the sun.
Catch me drinkin' of your wine.
I've Been Let Down
I've been let down,
and I'm still comin' 'round.
I've been put down,
and I'm still comin' 'round for you,
comin' 'round for you.
Take away everything if it feels fine.
Catch a shape in the circles of my mind.
Make me feel like I belong to you.
Make me feel it even if it ain't true.
Catch a train on a silver afternoon.
A thousand miles, and I'm gettin' there too soon.
Takes me there when I should be goin' home.
Tell me why I'm still feelin' all alone.
I've been let down,
and I'm still comin' 'round.
I've been put down,
and I'm still comin' 'round for you,
comin' 'round for you.
Roseblood
Everyday you can see
changes in her hair and smile.
I can wait a million days
while her smile goes away.
Sometimes I feel deceived
by the slices in her hands.
Secrets in her lipstick mouth,
shiny on again,
shiny on again.
Captured a smile, then that's all.
You won't know her, so it's okay.
Funny how things change.
Funny how things change.
Happy
Here's a light that holds me in sight
count my stars that are lucky in the sky.
There's a time when you go off the line,
and all my things look like someone else's memories.
Cold outside, burns a great big hole in my heart.
I'll just wait 'till you're happy,
and a smile makes it right.
It makes it right.
Sleep inside, oceans have smiles.
It shimmers and it glows.
For some people, I know it shines.
I know it shines.
Stay inside, don't color it with black.
They hold me in sight.
Count my stars.
Let them shine.
I know they shine.
Umbilical
She should've seen up through her mother's belly
alongside her sister(?)
She reached up for nourishment (?)
one day she opened her mouth wide
and swallowed her surroundings
(?) Now she is (?)
Now she is(?)
Her eyes are closed
in some kind of complete happiness.
Some kind of complete happiness.
Look on Down From the Bridge
Look on down from the bridge.
there's still fountains down there.
Look on down from the bridge.
It's still rainin' up here.
Everybody seems so far away from me.
Everybody just want to be free.
Look away from the sky.
It's no different when you're leavin' home.
I can't be the same thing to you now.
I'm just gone, just gone.
How could I say goodbye?
How could I say goodbye?
Goodbye.
Maybe I'll just place my hands over you
and close my eyes real tight.
There's a light in your eyes,
and you know. Yeah, you know.
Look on down from the bridge.
I'm still waitin' for you.
