The Closer

everything you thought you knew
it's fallen apart it's come unglued
and what you're hoping for becomes a slamming door
slam the door lock the lock
don't look back it's what you chose
i will never close the door 'cause i know what you're what you're searching for
everywhere you've come and gone
it's become quite clear you don't belong
and what you're searching for becomes a slamming door
slam the door lock the lock
don't look back it's what you chose
i will never close the door 'cause i know what you're what you're searching for

the writing is on the wall my lover...
please don't stand so tall...
i never have felt so small my lover...
can't hear me call...
you're cutting me down to size my darling...
only in your eyes...
we are desensitized my darling...
the truth is told in lies...
when eye to eye meets tooth and nail
i'll be there ferocious and so frail
when eye to eye meets tooth and nail
i'll be there ferocious and so frail
i'm turning my back to you my darling...
now i'm walking away...
i can't even speak your name my darling...
'cause you still hold sway...
i'm down on my knees for you my lover...
you do just as you please...
the knife in my back so deep my lover...
placed with so much ease
when eye to eye meets tooth and nail
i'll be there ferocious and so frail
when eye to eye meets tooth and nail
i'll be there ferocious and so frail

Sugarcoated

there's no life living without you
dreaming about you
you know you keep pulling me in
i can't breathe i'm drowning without you
my lips are turning blue
when i'm not breathing you in
time won't forget won't forgive all he's done
time after time he has shown you're the one
you don't care it hurts me to say this
but i must face this
i only can live and let live
you know he hurt you like he has before
and i know he will go on and on
and show mercy like he's shown before
'cause he knows you you will go on and on
don't look back i'm blind to these moments
it's nothing i've chosen
i just cannot see what you see
time won't forgive won't forget all he's done
time after time he has shown you're the one
don't hold back you cut like a knife to me
you're taking my life from me
i cannot just live and let live
you know he hurt you like he has before
and i know he will go on and on
and show mercy like he's shown before
'cause he knows you you will go on and on

In Hiding

i see the words in your eyes i feel your pain and there it remains for all your days there the words remain
this silence your silence tells me everything your silence it hides love coursing through your veins
don't you hide away from me set your voice free it's everything it's everything it's everything to me so please don't hide from me
i hear the voice in your head it's calling out to me through the faces you make and the things you break it is so plain to see
it's timing they tell me timing's everything in time we won't notice all those little things
don't you hide away from me set your voice free it's everything it's everything it's everything to me so please don't hide from me

peering up through the floorboards
only to see you smile
that empty smile
for a little while
peeking into your bedroom
just to see you sleep
that restless sleep
i was never deep
what's the matter
i was always there
or would you rather
i didn't care
reflections in your mirror
i'll pull at your tangled hair
when you needed care
i was never there
i cracked open your heart
here in your cold cold room
your frozen tomb
i will see you soon
what's the matter
i was always there
or would you rather
i didn't care
and after everything
you don't need a thing
not from me
they say the best is yet to come
but i can't believe i can't believe i can't believe it's true
it's true
it's true
it's true
drawings on the window
hearts on foggy glass
cross them out so fast
these feelings pass
counting every step
as you creak across the floor
i was such a bore
but i wanted more
what's the matter
i was always there
or would you rather
i didn't care
and after everything
you don't mean a thing
not to me
they say the best is yet to come
but i can't believe i can't believe i can't believe it's true
it's true
it's true
it's true

Disaster
05:34

my love...
the road laid out ahead of us is long and it's shrouded in the darkness of a cloud
and now...
there's thunder and there's lightning crashing down when i look for you you're nowhere to be found and i fall and i fall to pieces now but you won't pick up my pieces after all
so now i know now where you stand in this disaster
and i understand it doesn't even matter
the words are twisting up and curdling in my mouth
'cause i know now where you stand in this disaster
so now...
our lives lay scattered out across the ground
when i look for you you're nowhere to be found
and i fall and i fall to pieces now
but you won't pick up my pieces after all
'cause i know now where you stand in this disaster
and i understand it doesn't even matter
the words are burning up and spitting out my mouth 'cause i know now where you stand in this disaster
so now i know now where you stand in this disaster
and i understand it doesn't even matter
the words are burning up and spitting out my mouth 'cause i know now where you stand in this disaster
