as I lay here all alone
My heart melts from icy stone
I recall my days of youth
filled with love and light and truth
you don't get it
no you just don't get it
sometimes things just come and go
You don't get it
no you just don't get it
These images are mine to own
holding on to heavy things
makes it harder to begin
letting go is always best
things feel lighter in my chest
And these images
I hold onto yet
The rain when it falls
the train when it stops
A girl with a smile
the sound of a doorknock
the tick of the clock
the touch of your skin
the feel of a win
A moon when it rises
sun when it sets
the look in your eyes
when I kiss your neck
the wind when it blows
freckles on your nose
the taste of red wine
the way you always blow my mind
As I lay here all alone
All these memories I have owned
Make me love, lighter and truth
is i'd never change my youth
you don't get it
no you just don't get it
sometimes things just come and go
You don't get it
no you just don't get it
These images are mine to own
The rain when it falls
the train when it stops
A girl with a smile
the sound of a doorknock
the tick of the clock
the touch of your skin
the feel of a win
A moon when it rises
sun when it sets
the look in your eyes
when I kiss your neck
the love in your voice
is my sound of choice
the best day of my life
was when you called wife
and
These Images
I hold on to yet

I've got your number
I've got your home address
I've got a feeling
that you like this dress
let's have a dance
I smell the scotch on your breath
the same stench that you left when you left me in death
this is surreal
too candid to be real
you comitted the crime
i was awake the whole time
left in the past
you were quick to move fast
I feel no guilt your next move is your last
brutality
that is your name
your past and your future are far from humane
if only you could see me now
back then
pray you never ever see me again
there are no eyes from the satellites to pierce these walls
we've got about four hours til we see the dawn
another 24 before they know you're gone
you thought you were rid of me
but I guess you were wrong
wrong I guess you were wrong
you were wrong
underestimating
wrong and there's no debating
no debating
and i'm back to reality
wait
i've got the motivation
now
i feel your exhalation
how
my dear so easily i draw the fear in you that you gave to me

Solace(feat. Kawehi)
03:12
|
|||
When the world rests on a decision
and the home you've built looks just like a prison
start stripping away cement
I said what I meant
and there's no way around but through
the broken hearts i went through
and there's no way out but through
through you
I am without solace
stuck with an impossible dream
but i continue to live it
i'm not who i seem
and there's no way around but through
the broken hearts i went through
and there's no way out but through
through you
I love you like a flame loves gasoline, gasoline.
I love you like a flame loves gasoline, gasoline
and there's no way around but through
the broken hearts i went through
and there's no way out but through
through you

When you came here
it wasn't what was said
that wraps around me
and fear surrounds me
chaos has come again
my worth is taken
and leaves me
stripped
and gives you nothing
what can i say where's satisfaction
where ignorance made drunk
heaven is my judge
you shouldn't have to see this
foolish honesty and love
lets be wise
lets see nothing done
i should be wise
for honesty is a fool
and loses what it works for
ill set down the pegs
that make
this music
I'll seize the glory
in a world so gory

slow down
feel it from the inside out
always know the pain and doubt
never hear what's good
never feel what's right
I am falling fast
in my house of glass
I am crashing quick
I'm so tired of your tricks
I am falling fast
in this house of glass
I am searching for a better way to be free
searching for a better way to be me
searching for a better way to be free
searching for a better way to be me
slow down
see the sun, the starts, the moon
shining oh so bright above you
always see what's real
always even in the night

Smooth(feat. Kawehi)

In record time
the words were mine
Put ink to the page
gave the story a stage
And now it's your turn
to make me learn
your show to make
My words to take
you make it shine so bright
I only feel it in my bones when it feels right
ooh when it feel so right
I only feel it when it's smooth, quick and quiet like
ooh and it feels so right
ooh
on the inside
ooh
yeah it feels so right
ooh
and even if I could decide
ooh
I'd still say it feels so right
Look for the shapes and angles
your words are your key
some fit close together
quite perfectly
And now it's my turn
to tell you to see
the ways of your words
make me weak in my knees
and you make you make me shine so bright

You make everything elusive
You make money out of stone
You teach a man to be symbol
Put him up on a wooden throne
You make bread out of body
You make me feel so naughty
You teach a girl to be an angel
Only to bring her to mercy
You could be the one who hates me
Cut me up in parts of nine
You could be the one who bates me
Blood is good, blood is wine
I could be everything that you wanted
some say I should
Instead I'm the girl who called you out
Just to show you that I could
you could be the one to holds me
in palms of your two hands
you could be the one who makes me
makes me hurt, kill, take, steal and
you can be so hypnotizing
you can be ever so loud
through the shouting and the raging
I still hold my head up proud
you do everything in the name
of someone else so high above
You say things that are meant to shame me
when all I do is done with love
I could be the girl
I could be your world
I could be the girl who calls you out
I could be the girl
To show you what you've got
I could be the girl who calls you out

3(feat. Kawehi)

there's no three in you and me
there's no love in this I see
only pain and aching limbs
steady hands hold heavy sins
I am dreaming, wide awake
left to walk in a shaky state
Packed my bags and hit the road
looking for a home to know
And so it goes
My life in throws
And so it goes
in your company
And so I go
Left you for the show
Took my three to the marquee
There is nothing for me here
no talisman to hold me near
empty shell held up in ties
you were born from a lie

The Harbor(feat. Kawehi)

She said
these falling tears
will dry
and go
like the tide i fall back
and wait
until it is time
baby you still see me
slinking back on the sand
baby you still see me
slinking back on the sand
put me to the test
I'll swim the water
weigh me down
but I'll swim the water
i see the light from the shore
I won't see it in the morning.
I see a dozen lights up in the air
they move back and forth so slow
i see a dozen lights
they all have names
Someone's coming to see them

I find myself just staring out the window
waiting for a knocking at the door
She said lover take your time but hurry up
cause I'm sort of in a rush
did i spit this story before
much more than a crush
said she wasnt bout the lust
but her heart had some rust and
if i help her dust it off she'll be someone that i could trust
i said loyalty's a must
honesty's a plus
it takes more than your butter skin soft to the touch
I checked her out for baggage
she didn't have much
wasn't quite what i was used to but I'm sure I could adjust
both curious enough
we sat down to discuss
just who i am
future plans and such
she asked a few questions
i said excuse me for a minute
but my destiny is calling and I gotta go get it
tell me
whats your name
so I can tell my friends of the good man and why he came
I can't lie
at first you all look the same
but you're not like all the others
just here for fortune and fame
girl I'm leavin on the next plane
I don't know when I'll be back again.
but I'll be waiting for you.
