Something To Say

I have something to say
Gather 'round and listen
I've got nothing to say
You can all leave now, if you want to
But I'm not feeling okay
If you'd like to stick around
I'll tell stories of Nowhere
When my journey began, how I started to drown
When I fell in the ocean
When my love finally left me
I was washed up ashore
Found this new view unsettling
And I fell in
To the arms
Of Chemicals
Now don't you dare
Try to save me
I have something to say
Like these tired eyes, I'm burning
I've got nothing to say
I'm just sick and tired now, from not sleeping
And I'm not feeling okay
I can barely make a sound
But I'll sit here and worry you
'Til some questions arise, and you start to wonder
When I fell in the ocean
When my love finally left me
I was washed up ashore
Found this new view unsettling
And I fell in
To the arms
Of Chemicals
Now don't you dare
Try to save me, again

Heart of the forest,
we've lost our way.
This here will calm your nerves,
so don't be nervous.
Where are you now?
I can't breathe.
I'm underwater, where breathing is done much differently.
Don't follow, keep your head above the water.
So says the coelacanth with the razors in his hands.
Turn around, this is no place for you to be,
Look inside yourself, the answers that you seek,
you won't be hearing them from me.
Take my breath away, leave me shaking in the corner.
Coming to, falling through, you'll be safe until the morning.
Recollection, mind is a blur,
See your face, I hear your voice,
calling out my name, but I am lost forever.
Small white pills take all the pain away,
make me feel alive.
This here will cut me down, so don't you worry.
Where are you now?
I can't breathe.
I'm underwater, where breathing is done much differently.

These days are getting shorter,
I don't want to go to school.
Counter-rebellion with no leg to stand on,
look what they've done to you.
We are victims of our own failure,
fragile, though we were at one time
a promising group of children
Generation
lost ambition,
and the government shut down,
but they couldn't capitalize.
Suffer tyrants,
backwards progress.
Don't let them take our freedom away,
they're waiting for us to fall
We are dead inside,
all of us alone.
But there is something to be learned about
from all of our mistakes.
I would think that we'd be pushing
all together as a team,
but we stand divided
and demotivated

Hey hey my Carolina
We go back a ways
I just wanted to let you know
This song is for you
This is a lullaby
To sing you off to sleep
When I'm looking at the moon
I hope you're seeing the same one too
Oh my sweet Carolina
I've been waiting for so long
To hold you in my arms
I know I will fight forever
To ever see you again
Hey hey my Carolina
We go back a ways
And I just wanted to let you know
I've been thinking of you
This is amphetamine
So I can stay awake
To avoid those dreams
When I'm alone and your'e not next to me
Oh my sweet Carolina
I've been waiting for so long
To hold you in my arms
I know I will fight forever
To ever see you again
That night I was all alone
Buried in the Chicago snow
And someone that you knew came out to help me
He invited me inside
When I walked in I saw your eyes
And you saw mine
Next thing I knew
I was floating away with you

A sidewalk you are stepping through,
I saw the other side of you.
Transparent, though you've got my heart.
This is not a good start,
I went outside, you came out later
but you swore to me
that you were never there.
Silence,
take me away
I've been stuck outside my bed.
And I'm trying
to find a way home
for a place to rest my head.
I am falling all over the place,
wouldn't look you in the face.
You saw me and you turned away.
This is not a place to say,
there's plenty here to make me wonder
if I'm real or I'm sleeping and
a wishing well will certainly not save me
Silence,
take me away
I've been stuck outside my bed.
And I'm trying
to find a way home
for a place to rest my head.
Like sheep, I'm led to slaughter
by an ancestor of mine
who's disagreeing with the way I ease my pain.
And I am caught out in the rain,
cold and shaking, was I sleeping all along?
Or is something happening here we were never conscious of?
Silence,
take me away
I've been stuck outside my bed.
And I'm trying
to find a way home
for a place to rest my head.

Knapsack

Though I left here a long time ago for a long list of damn good reasons.
Thought to myself "I will never return."
But look at me now,
longing for nostalgic comfort.
But I can't stand some people here,
this house is not a home.
I have left a piece of myself
something lost along the road.
With a knapsack full of optimism,
dreams, and just a bit of liquor,
take the time to appreciate the scenery
it will get you there quicker.
Seven days ago, arrived into this place that I call home for now,
somewhere to track down my dreams.
But I haven't been sleeping,
'cause there's too much fucking noise out there on the outside
and I can't seem to get away.
But I can't stand some people here,
this house is not a home.
I have left a piece of myself
something lost along the road.
With a knapsack full of optimism,
dreams, and just a bit of liquor,
take the time to appreciate the scenery
it will get you there quicker.

I'll Stay Home Tonight

They found me on your kitchen floor
I snuck in through your bedroom window.
Remind me of the days when I was happy without you.
They're so far gone.
And how does my blood taste,
stumbling off your lips?
If you could be my medication,
I'd drop all these pills.
Pick up all the empty bottles,
and drop them off the earth.
Evasive, like the criminal they never could catch,
and I haven't slept in weeks.
I lie awake and dream of you,
my dreams, they'll never come true.
And how does my blood taste,
stumbling off your lips?
If you could be my medication,
I'd drop all these pills.
Pick up all the empty bottles,
and drop them off the earth.
This room is spinning faster than ever before.
I'm trying to stay high.
Tell them all be quiet,
careful what they wish for.
I'm never coming down.
And how does my blood taste,
stumbling off your lips?

That look in your eyes
Atrophy setting in
I swear I tried
And you were always there
I'll open the window
And stare down at the street
All of these voices in my head
Keep telling me
Whoa, darling I miss you
Whoa, darling I'm here
I'm so tired of waiting
And you were all that I had left
Now these memories
They haunt me in my bed
You're barely surprised
When I say that I'll come back
You're right outside
Watching me through the window
I'm scared and I need you
I'm staring down at the street
I hear your voice inside my head
You're calling me
Whoa, darling I'm shaking
Whoa, darling I'm fine
I'm so tired of waiting
And you were all that I had left
Now these memories
They haunt me in my bed
