Wake up tears down my face
My heart numb and aches
Wide eyed grief comes too soon
So much left to say
Did you come to us
In through the subconscious
Deepest selves longing peace
A place to lay all of this
Can I even call these dreams where I see you a nightmare
Can I even Call these dreams where I see you a nightmare
I move through the day
I move through the day
I move through the day
I move through the day
I hope you come on by
Maybe it will ease my mind
Sleepless nights I dwell
Wishing your plans didn't go well
Can I even call these dreams where I see you a nightmare
Can I even Call these dreams where I see you a nightmare
Can I even call these dreams where I see you a nightmare
Can I even Call these dreams where I see you a nightmare

What Happened

It's another awesome brand new day
I have to say I really love the way
The sun is made brighter
You are so much it seems
Getting lost in the ver air you breathe
When the company stays in between
We conquer any and everything
How can all of this be real
Day to day mundane so surreal
Who would ever want this to end
Why would we go back to then
Can you please tell me
Is it plain to see
How did it come to be
What happened
Can you please tell me
Is it plain to see
How did it come to be
What happened
May have trapped a thought running through my head
Better by myself instead
Who knows where such ideas began
Every bump a bruise more challenges
Takes everything and then some to resist
Is it all too much to keep my friends
Time to piece together peaceful ammends
Would it show good faith if I can
Share all of my feelings
Could this be self care then
Am I doomed to live in a past tense
Shell shook by experiences
Coming to learn new expressions
Tired of moving through the motions
Survival means accepting my emotions
Can you please tell me
Is it plain to see
How did it come to be
What happened
Can you please tell me
Is it plain to see
How did it come to be
What happened
Can you please tell me
Is it plain to see
How did it come to be
What happened
Can you please tell me
Is it plain to see
How did it come to be
What happened
Can you please tell me
Is it plain to see
How did it come to be
What happened
What Happened
What Happened

Push and Pull
03:14

All this time we had to look around
All this time we had to look around
The push and pull ebb and flow
I go whichever way the breeze wants to blow
When the wind lifts me soaring through the air
There isn't a worry, fear, or a care
The goin' down I may need help
Prayin a new gust will come isn't going well
It's let loose way of fixing things ourselves
Aiming for a soft plot and hope it breaks how fast we fell
All this time we had to look around
All this time we had to look around
The push and pull ebb and flow
I'll head whichever way the path before me goes
Can't think feelin' fine the past is yesterday
Who'd have guessed dreaming would see chance slip away
The push and pull ebb and flow
The push and pull ebb and flow
The push and pull ebb and flow
The push and pull ebb and flow
All this time we had just to look around

Got no Time

Thanks didn't know I'm still grieving
You're the last on I expected to see
I'm sure we both had to grow up
From you what's even an apology
Next time we see each other keep walkin
Need some space to go through the processes
Am I asking for too much perhaps
Maybe this should be common courtesy
No sorry? Just what's up? Got no time for you
No sorry? Just what's up? Got no time
You hold your chin up so high
Certainly not what I was expecting
Even if we never split on bad vibes
You had to leave that room a vacancy
Don't pretend you've forgotten
Let it slide 'cause you were the play thing
I can try to lead them away from water
But the well ahas always served tainted drinks
We rarely change for our own sake
The harm of keeping you around is on me
This all brings me to wonder
Should of, could of, would ofs all the possibilities
No sorry? Just what's up? Got no time for you
No sorry? Just what's up? Got no time
No sorry? Just what's up? Got no time for you
No sorry? Just what's up? Got no time

If I could go on alone
In the cold of the night
Have to get these feelings off my chest
Would the words ever come out right?
Day by day gets easier moving on
I can try to hear your voice in the wind
When I can't remember it off hand
I just keep breathing

Come Around
03:59
|

A rose by any other name still has thorns
This wouldn't feel right cause the welcome is worn
The way things used to be was never the same
I call back to who I was but the ain't in frame
I've been waiting for me to
For me to come around
Its tough to feel again when did I break
I just wanna give I just wanna take
The smell the lights those eyes give me faith
What we've built can be remade
I've been waiting for me to
For me to come around
Life is scary and only temporary

Bend Break

Time moves slow
Sitting on the shore
Looking out on the lake
Everything so far away
The ice gives way
The rolling waves
Crash and break crash and break
Crash and Break crash and break
The sun some say
Fades beyond the trees
And the sky which shines
Are gods who didn't stay behind
Time crawls slow
Sitting on the shore
Spacing out on the lake
Everything seems fake
The tide rise
Lift spirits
Zephyrs sink ships
The sun will rise
With or without
Knowing or have doubts

Holding On

So much can change
With the morning comes the rain
We all get hurt with time
But that helps us feel the same
Holding time try to stay forever
Maybe things will turn for the better
Maybe what we need to be is together
Holding on
Gather up your will
No time for staying still
The roots we grow
We don't see them from our hills
Holding time try to stay forever
Maybe things will turn for the better
Maybe what we need to be is together
Holding on

tortured by the CIA and the waterboarding just ain't cutting it. All they'd have to do is play "Mermaids" on repeat, and I'd admit to faking the moon landing — anything to make this song stop. "- Seven Days
