LAKE

It bit
The itch
Only to see
If I had found curiosity
I'll float on down and drown in my own lake
Before your floor starts to reaggravate
Caught and its hard to take
If only i'd had my lake
i wouldn't have been dragged out
I could've been left to drown
I'll only hear it one time
(But still remember every word)
I can see im being sidelined
(And i'm put off by the glance)
It didn't work the second time
(Maybe third or maybe fourth time)
I'm gonna give up sometime
Dont base all of your instinct on your reflection
They will come around to cause you mass regression
Caught and its hard to take
If only i'd had my lake
i wouldn't have been dragged out
I would've been left to drown
I struggle to contemplate
Whats happened along the way
When i look as whats left of me now
I should've been left to drown
How can it be for me
That abstract topography
Has caused me to drop
Down my demands
And all yr doing inside of me
Is running amok really
But do I mind
Drown
Drown
Drown
In my lake

Idolising you was unwise of me
I was in fixation with a false representation of lust
You're the red rag
I'm the bull and I hope that we collide
It might make you realise
Silvers and coppers were more valuable to me than your trust
How weird has this become?
Something turns into nothing and nothingness turned me into...
Idolising you was unwise of me
You were the flower
I was the water I thought you would need
It was all too much
You drowned
The compacted soil rooted you to the ground
I can't pull you out
How weird has this become?
Something turns into nothing, and nothingness turned me into...
No one

And you said to me
You were going out on the tow
And you weren't ever coming back
Your words they pulled me down
Spiralling again
Looking round for friends
And if I took the call
Would she trip or would she fall
She'll take the longer route back home
To put off her mad thoughts of being alone
And if I could've been there now
I could've stopped her from coming down
The lights of her street they're just blurred
She's not the same what happened to her
Well it was just from half a chance
She saw the end of her romance
She spoke of where he would be but isn't
And what he'd do if he did but he didn't
And what she wants to do but shouldn't
And what she tried to tell him but couldn't
She should've taken the warning but wouldn't
Willing to back out now she isn't
Wants to promise that he'll stay but shouldn't
Moving away from the problems he couldn't
Spiralling again
Looking round for friends
And if I took the call
Would she trip or would she fall
She'll take the longer route back home
To put off her mad thoughts of being alone
And if I could've been there now
I could've stopped her from coming down
The lights of her street they're just blurred
She's not the same what happened to her
Well it was just from half a chance
She saw the end of her romance
Spiralling again
Spiralling again
Spiralling again
Spiralling again
I'm not

Eres Tu
04:52
|

Holding a snow globe but I’m trapped inside
I can’t abide
I haven’t seen you in years
Since you pushed me aside
You look
Familiar
Is this
A second encounter?
I think I think too much
(Hold the grudge)
I know we’ve lost common touch
(You’re the judge)
My body’s a braking frame
(Myself to blame)
I know we’re not the same
¿Eres tu?
I know you're fine
When you see a bee as a butterfly
You are
Familiar
Is this
Another encounter?
I think I think too much
(Hold the grudge)
I know we’ve lost common touch
(You’re the judge)
My body’s a braking frame
(Myself to blame)
I know we’re not the same

How Can It Be
04:38
|

Too much has changed for things to be as what they were
In my mind it never stopped
Words regretted as soon as they rolled off of your tongue
Mistake is only valid once
You've got nothing going on
But that's not an excuse
It's never an excuse
If I always get my way
Why am I suffering
If I always get what I want
Why've I got nothing
I guess I'm stuck in the motions of trying to claw it back
I never could
How can it be like it was
If there was never a thing before
Your set on a path now and I'm not gonna stop you this time
Not a word
You've got nothing going on
But that's not an excuse
It's never an excuse
If I always get my way
Why am I suffering
If I always get what I want
Why've I got nothing
I guess I'm stuck on a problem and it's never going back
I never helped
How can it be like it was in the past
If there was never a thing before
How can it be like it was in the past
If there was never a thing before
How can it be like it was in the past
If there was never a thing before
How can it be like it was in the past
If there was never a thing before

Calumny
02:59
|

Do you think that I’ll want to be associated
When your truancy is faced by harsh reality
When yr draining all that's good from me
And you drink from my mortality
Then i'm trapped from all I wanna see
Pretend you want what’s right in me
Leave me be
Leave me be
Leave me be
I’ll lead myself away from this calumny
You’re not the only chemist to wear a white coat
I’ve worn one too so stop the lectures and
Go
I shouldn’t feel this uncomfortable in my own home
Leave, me, be
Leave, me, be
Leave me be
I’ll lead myself away from this calumny

I'm Not (You Knew)
05:51
|

Faltered to succumb
When thinking ill decision
My own doing
I'll probably come undone
Giving constantly
Gratitude maybe
I'll wait
For it to unfold
It's given away
By my previous episode
I couldn't do it
It wasn't within me
Torn and bruised
I kept on falling every time
Spoke so fluent
It easily fooled me
Not big news
Staying awake is an impossible break
Just a constant mistake for me
Driven away from a forgettable face
Now I'm tethered to all I see here
What do I leave when I struggle to breath
You're pushing me doing much further
I'm never to sleep through and inaudible scream
Though it'll keep me up far longer than I knew
I'll wait
For it to unfold
It's given away
By my previous episode
I couldn't do it
It wasn't within me
Torn and bruised
I kept on falling every time
Spoke so fluent
It easily fooled me
Not big news
You traced the pattern
From side to side
Singing praises
Falsely claiming
If it's ancient history
Why's it plaguing me
Wonder wonder wonder wonder
Wonder wonder wonder wonder
Wonder wander and then by
The end I will decide
That in due time
I'll make it mine
I'm not
You knew
We shared
All the truth
You took
What you had
I took what I could
I'm not
You knew
We shared
All but truth
You took
At most a hand
I'm lost
Not this again

Always Uptight
05:00

I can not see you today
I’m busy doing nothing
Ain’t that okay?
Give to me 2 or 3 years and I’ll come your way
But right now I’m busy doing nothing
Ain’t that okay?
Spending too long on what I desire
Is causing disorder from my minds blind eye
Closest of friends
I stop thinking about them
It’s a vicious cycle I can’t comprehend
Now I’m left in the dark
I can’t see the light
Is it you or is it my minds blind eye?
All I want is us to be alright
Cos I can’t keep it in I’m always uptight
I’m always uptight
I’m always uptight
Spending too long on what I desired backfired
Spending too long on what I desired backfired
Everyone’s gone and all ambitions have died
I could of seen you that day
I lied
Spending too long on what I desire
Is causing disorder from my minds blind eye
Closest of friends
I stop thinking about them
It’s a vicious cycle I can’t comprehend
Now I’m left in the dark
I can’t see the light
Is it you or is it my minds blind eye?
All I want is us to be alright
Cos I can’t keep it in I’m always uptight
I’m always uptight
I’m always uptight
