08-03-2018 (2022 mix), originally by Sadistic View
eyes are so blurry
don't feel a thing
I'm in a hurry
you are too
I guess I'll show you
it don't mean a thing
do I owe you anything
where do you hide
yourself
slit my finger
don't feel a thing
I won't linger
does it sting
do I know you
and am I here
and I'll show you
I've moved on
where do you hide
yourself

shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you
I'm still alright to smile
girl, I think about you every day now
was a time when I wasn't sure
but you set my mind at ease
there is no doubt you're in my heart now
said "woman take it slow, it'll work itself out fine"
all we need is just a little patience
said "sugar make it slow and we'll come together fine"
all we need is just a little patience
I sit here on the stairs
'cause I'd rather be alone
if I can't have you right now, I'll wait dear
sometimes I get so tense but I can't speed up the time
but you know love there's one more thing to consider
said "woman take it slow it'll come together fine"
all we need is just a little patience
said "sugar take the time 'cause the lights will shine so bright"
you and I've got what it takes to make it
we won't fake it, I'll never break it
I can't take it
I've been walking the streets at night
just trying to get it right
it's hard to see when so many go around
you know I don't like being stuck in the crowd
and the streets don't change but maybe the names
I ain't got time for the game 'cause I need you
yeah, yeah, yeah but I need you
oh, I need you
oh, I need you
ooh this time

See Her Stay

the sun is setting
it's getting dark
I don't know if I can
see her again
I see her scars
they're shining and
when I need her most
she fades away
she breaks, she weeps
I gave her everything she needs
she's wrong, she thinks
she's better off just suffering
she's stops, she thinks
she offers up sincerity
she's strong, she's weak
I just want to see her stay
I don’t want to let her go
and I don’t want to see her beg
she sees the stars, she’s counting them
when I need her most, I fade away
she breaks, she weeps
I gave her everything she needs
she's wrong, she thinks
she's better off just suffering
she's stops, she thinks
she offers up sincerity
she's strong, she's weak
I just want to see her stay

Footsteps (take 1)

she
sleeps in silence
her eyes closed
to the world around her
I speak softly
as I lie
in the bed beside her
her footsteps are heavy
she begs forgiveness
for the truth
laid before her
I have no room
in my heart
to forgive her
her footsteps are heavy

she sleeps soundly
her eyes closed
to the world around her
I speak softly
as I lie
in the bed beside her
her footsteps are heavy
she begs forgiveness
for the truth
laid before her
I have no room

to forgive her
her footsteps are heavy

Blackout Days

08-03-2018 (2022 mix)
what are questions for
I've already lost my nerve
let my voice be heard
I hurt so much more
and I love this sound
but I hate this town
before I cross that line
I better draw one too
violence on my face
I never touch my skin
I'll never get this down
I'll never touch the sun
go across this town
come on and bury me
a scratch across my throat
come on and let me in
I remember things
I never did before
a message to the cold
you know this part is true
I am fine I said
I'm just falling down
I have blackout days
I never did with you

buy into the hype
it means a lot of things
I don't really like
singing in the rain
play your stupid songs
I don't know what they mean
I don't really want you
sitting next to me
it's true
silence
saw you
oh yeah
I'd be struck by lightening
just to be with you
save your stupid lines
because I don't like your shoes
I know it's not your fault
but I'll take it out on you
get a fucking haircut
and get a fucking clue
it's true
silence
saw you
oh yeah

see your faces bruised and
you know I'd never use them
even if you fake it
all the kids will lose and
and they'll never know
it's all about the trends
ripping off the old
know it's all pretend
copying the sound
only if it's in
and they'll never know
it's all about the trends
to them they are just faces
venues are just places
money in the bank and
know that I can take it
and they'll never know
it's all about the trends
ripping off the old
know it's all pretend
copying the sound
only if it's in
and they'll never know
it's all about the trends

you have big brown eyes
you're always by my side
forever want to be
staring out the window
just like you always do
staring out the window
just like you always do
you don't hear a word I say
it's like you're so far away
you don't hear a word I say
it's like you're so far away
you see when I play and sing
you always take things from me
don't even share with me
staring out the window
just like you always do
staring out the window
just like you always do
you don't hear a word I say
it's like you're so far away
you don't hear a word I say
it's like you're so far away

they all say to her
she's too pretty to be crying
when she looks into the mirror
all she sees is a lie
no one knows what she does at night
no one knows how hard she tries
no one knows what she fears the most
no one knows how hard she tries
I don't want her to hurt anymore
why am I the one who bites my tongue
and I don't want her to hurt anymore
why am I the one who bites my tongue
she lives life through her pen
all she wants is one true friend
why don't we ever joke she says
why does life have to be so bad
I don't want her to hurt anymore
why am I the one who bites my tongue
and I don't want her to hurt anymore
why am I the one who bites my tongue

I'm not home alone
somebodies in my house
I've had this thought before
I can't express it
if you bleed like me
dark is all you'll see
please just promise me
you won't regret it
she's not coming through
you know what to do
why are your hands shaking
why are your hands red
I'm not home alone
I've said it once before
if I don't say it again
I know that I'll regret it
it's better the second time
I don't have another line
if you look into my eyes
they're not bloodshot
she's not coming through
you know what to do
why are your hands shaking
why are your hands red

now I'm in salt and
now you're insulted
better dry your eyes
face looks bad

but you've never seen your face
I choose you a friend
I choose to offend
although it ends right in front of me
although it seems
it doesn't seem
I shouldn't leave
it's right in front of me
what you see
is what you get
what you get
is nothing
whatever you are
whatever you were
and you are going nowhere
I'm choosing a friend
I choose to offend
although it ends
it's right in front of me
although it seems
she doesn't see
I shouldn't leave
it's right in front of me
you're invited
if you don't mind it
it's in your hands
you can try it
if you like it
it's in your head
I choosed you a friend
I choose to offend
although it ends right in front of me
although it seems

Say Hello

08-03-2018 (2022 mix)
words are escaping
as long as you stay here
take me to the moment
where what we say is safe
conversations only
as hostile as you make it
happiness is empty
we never were ok
say hello to your bitter head
say hello to your empty heart
say hello to your eyes that lie
don't let me drag you down
words are escaping
as long as you stay here
take me to that moment
where what we say is safe
conversations only
as hostile as you make it
when happiness is empty
we never were ok
say hello to your empty heart
say hello to your bitter head
say hello to your eyes that lie
don't let me drag you down

it's just the
sound of your voice in the wind
it's just the
chance to see you again
it's just the
memory of your smile
it's just that
you'll always be my friend
I can see you
I can feel you
I can see you
I can feel you
but you're gone
it's just the
chance for one more smile
It's just a
Chance to say goodbye
It's just that
I need you by my side
It's just that
I could be there with you
I can see you
I can feel you
I can see you
I can feel you
but you're gone
it's just a
it's just that
I miss you
I hear your voice
in the wind
I turn around
but you're gone
