UNFULFILLED
Your good intentions nearly swept me away
Now you get down a little differently
It turns my stomach to stay here
Living unfulfilled
Back to the same mistakes
Now it feels like a broken part of me
Now it feels like you would pull the air out from my lungs to breathe
You're such a clever one
Never had to run
You're just so used to starting again
So now I'm sitting still
Wondering what's behind that smile
I need to know what's left
You've hit my heart over again
I'm afraid I've found pleasure in it
It turns my stomach to stay here
Living unfulfilled
Back to the same mistakes
Shameless
How can you hide so well?
No one could ever tell
I feel like letting go of everything
You've numbed me down
What a special lack of care

Barely There

BARELY THERE
Barely there
Barely visible beside me on my bed
You have the softest hair
I've ever ran my fingers through
I swear, this ghost is the real you
Lifting me up from my burdens
You'd better let me down
I'm less of an honest man
I am deserving of the heaviest hands now
Once in a while I’ll see you here
Once in a while it feels like every day we spent
(Now you're barely there)
In a vivid dream again
I'll follow you as closely as I can
You are my oxygen
Once in a while I feel like we're running back home again
You never knew it for certain
Well, I think you know by now
I'm less of an honest man
I am deserving of the heaviest hands
So lay it on me now
Grant me another day
Waiting here with the window ajar
And I thought I could hear you say…
How is it you feel so near?
Pressed in the fold of my helplessness
And I'll make it another year
Maybe another day

SALEM
Frequent to dream of a warm summer scene
I want you so bad to be there with me
So teach me to trick myself
I've slipped from my head to a sweat-dampened bed
I'm pulling away on a possible end
It's just so tightly fastened
If I could see that place take shape on the west-end wall
Dreaming through the days
Moving endlessly on
How long will you wait there for?
Lover, cover up
You will always lift me in my thoughts
Lover, cover up
Stay warm for a little longer
Or leave me to stay in your warm summer days
Leave me to stay
This is the closest we've been to finally feeling safe
Together, tangled up so comfortably again
So leave me to breathe in the warm shower steam
I'm pressed up against you
I’ll practice the feeling
It's just so tightly fastened
Wrapping around me now
If I could just see that place take shape on the west-end wall
Beautiful landscape
Oh, the heat of the sun
And all I've been longing for

Root Of All
It's been a waste of precious time
Nothing in its nature will provide
You have sold your soul
Let your heart away
For the looks of a better life
And now you're counting on the hope
The wrong you've planted soon will begin to grow
But the rain's been shy
And the soil dries too fast to provide life
You will spiral downward endlessly
When all you care for has been spent
You found a safer place to hide
And there developed quite the sense of pride
It's a toxic touch
Did it reel you in?
It will never provide life
And you will grow so tired of everything
You will never feel at last again
Even if it gets you near
You'll never find bliss
What a waste of precious time
To let your heart away for the looks of a better life
So when you're winding down the road
In search of a lending hand
Maybe then you will understand

HONESTLY
Just say the words
I'll be on my way back home to despair
So quick to offer you a hand
for you'll kindly pull me down again
I can't leave you
that melodramatic touch that I'm drawn to
Can't believe you
Won't you just look at me and care?
Seems that you've lost the ability to feel anything
I'm drawn to the emptiness inside
Fond of the lack of life in your eyes
So I will run 'till my legs go out
back home to despair
So quick to offer you a hand
for you'll kindly pull me down again
I can't leave you
That melodramatic touch that I'm drawn to
Can't believe you
Won't you just look at me and care?
Honestly
