Keeping Score

Cold snap, on a bitter night
The fire, it flickers in your eyes
And I can’t see, whether you’ve punched that ticket
Same suit, but the holes they’ve been mended
Do you remember where you are?
Have you lost yourself?
Although we won’t go very far you,
Are you keeping score?
And all these memories they won’t last,
‘Cause I’m lost myself
Instead they’ll drift into the past you,
‘Cause I’m keeping score.
this means more.
A haze drifts, at the edge of my vision
Time slips, was this my decision?
I can’t be left all alone,
It seems strange
It’s foreign, but somehow feels like it’s home
Do you remember where you are?
Have you lost yourself?
Although we won’t go very far you,
Are you keeping score?
And all these memories they won’t last,
‘Cause I’m lost myself
Instead they’ll drift into the past you,
This is your last night, say all your goodbyes.

Portrayal
02:41

I’m a little taken aback. At the fact that you’re running away
Oh it’s nothing personal, in fact, it’s friendly
There’s just a lot that’s going on, and there’s a lot right now in play
My life’s a poker chip at stake, so deal another hand and trust
This is an act of portrayal.
Cobbles breaking down
Drowning just behind the dam
Lake is filling up
After all we’re turning into sand
You wear that outfit well
But the sizing is slightly wrong
You wear it almost as
A second skin that you’ve had on
Portrayal, it fits you well, Portrayal.
I’m lying on my back, flicking paint at the ceiling
(Let it dry)
Let it dry and watch it crack, find your meaning
Cobbles breaking down
Drowning just behind the dam
Lake is filling up
After all we’re turning into sand

Tan Walls

Feel the wind it’s blowing on your face
Stark reminder of this exit out of autumn
Straight ahead and you won’t miss
People you chose to leave behind
All these lies
She takes her time, slowly
To leave from your mind
Spin to win escape these guilty thoughts
Oh how they abound
I’m climbing up the continental divide
But Im crying “down down down”
(“Pick me up I’m falling”)
Throw me in the rushing water
And let me disappear,
It’s loud, no one will hear
(I’m done)
I’m done with this doubt of mine,
(I’m done)
I throw it away over every climb
These tan walls take me there, me there
Something new, To distract you, only
So long as blowing leaves are shifting sands
They’ll bury people you left under
All these lies She takes her time,
To slowly leave your mind and have
These memories convert,
File formats to a smile from a hurt
(tan walls, carry)
So I rest with the pain inside my tent
On my breath it floats up to the sky
(tan walls, bear me)
No longer living with regret.I think I’ll like tomorrow’s ride
At least until your song comes up
Throw me in the rushing water
And let me disappear, It’s loud, no one will hear
(I’m done)
I’m done with this doubt of mine,
(I’m done)
I throw it away over every climb
These tan walls carry me
(These tan walls carry me)
These tan walls carry me
I hide, behind tan walls

Boredom Showers
04:20

This sunset, you’ll never get it back today
It’s gone now, spins towards the other way
This water wheel, will turn as long as there is flow
And ordinary maintenance oh don’t you know?
Afford a little time, to yourself
(take time for yourself)
Ignoring anybody else
(ignoring anybody else)
The trickle, the trickle down my neck so warm
These boredom showers never disappoint.
Afford a little time, to yourself
Ignoring everyone, everybody else
But that still wont bring it back
It’s never coming back
It’s never coming back
It’s never coming back
It’s never coming back
(‘cause you try so hard, chest up to the)
It’s never coming back
(counter drinking PBR, those happy hour prices)
It’s never coming back
(got you pretty far)
It’s never coming back
It’s never coming back
No never.

Riches Are Hidden
05:18

Down this, street it’s never ending, it’s blazing passing by
Oh it happens all the time, how you won’t evade my sight
A little car it’s navy blue, it’s a curse though it’s crimson red
A response programmed in my head, how I could have sworn you said
“I will never ever leave, I could never cease to be, to exist”
or was that me? Who’s to trust their memory?
A door swings open wide
Some say the riches are hidden
Come on and take my hand
The finest jewels lie within
I see your car everywhere
And no I won’t replace, even a single frame
We’re running out of film it’s fine, i’ve kept you in my mind
Where I sand down these edges, iron out the lines,
Anything offensive or defined
Yourself in a memory a moment passed
(such a shame, steer right towards the rocks you’ll never change)
“Would you want to go around again?”
(run aground and stranded on the shore)
I told you twice it was just this once.
(such a shame, left adrift it’s said you’ll never stop)
“Would you want to go around again?”
A door swings open wide
Some say the riches are hidden
Come on and take my hand
The finest jewels lie within
(I see your car everywhere)
A door swings open wide
Some say the riches are hidden
(I see your car everywhere)
Come on and take my hand
The finest jewels lie within
I see your car everywhere
Hope is Irrelevant
