I Won't Wait 02:23
I won't wait too long Time says you're sure So let it go on by So come on! I can't believe how we used to be friends, she said I've got to know I've got to go, she said You took enough time Enough of my heart, she said I've got to know, got to know It's time you start talking, if you should have the words I know you play silent I see it all, when I don't want to Here's you're chance to take it back So move on Time says you're sure, don't let it go on by

Sign on the line when it's time to sell your soul No progress in silence So goes the undertow The story leaks, it's a B movie A horror scene with the shittiest ending You play the part and call it a loss Cos what you're passing as a beating heart is a ticking bomb It's big hit! You've got children screaming and women leaning to kiss your filthy mouth Can't stop you now! It's prestigious! You're sweeping award season with your picture greeting the shoppers in this town And the tide rolls out... The suit and tie, they bring out your eyes Ocean-blue iris and the sadness inside them But no act is feeble, they're pitching a sequel A franchise can last so long So let's go! Now or never be free forever All ties severed, true contender This role you were born for, a lone rogue soldier If fear moves closer then it's all over You're dead, you're done Then it moves on to the next one who can hold on to what it all means No second-rate actor, no silver screen glamor No everyman panhandler with a dream No script, no cast, no focus-group No audience, just me and you All together with a broken projector No cares, no prayers Because there is no director

Your heart was mine Whether or not you have known Too long time talks of weeping willows But I couldn't let you know How long it's been I couldn't let you go I left at winter's end And then I was gone Oh, come spring and summer Grow the path I was on Cos I don't wanna see it there Autumn's almost here Don't want to know What I've done It ends so fast Like I knew it would It ends when you're not careful

It Walks 03:00
Baby needs a long vacation Tell it to your poor bank statement To get away To leave the machine just for a day Commuter train will feel like a far away dream Baby runs the race all evening When late at night, I slip away in toxic sleeping A line divides the road Some may come, some will go But we're all headed home Even lost souls like me To walk away From where we're fated, destined to stay Commuter train still feels like a prison to me It's true It's not supposed to take this long It's cool It's not supposed to move It walks Ha, ha, ha It walks away like a lover in the rain leaving everything Commuter train, lock me up Hide all the keys Don't release me Baby needs a long vacation Late at night, she's questioning her situation Ha, ha, ha

If there's words, than I'll remember, So I got to make words work, and remember time and place, and where I was. I'm alone on my bed's corner, and that's the only place I've been, While the city weather's right now to explore. But I think I'll keep it up, oh if you only knew, how I keep it up. How I still keep talking to you. If I had only waited until you walked it out, if I had only eyes to see it through, If I was just a second late to call you out, would you turn around or go straight home? Would you call me in the afternoon, like you'd do when nothing's wrong, nothing's wrong? I think you'd probably wait until you built it up. You would just hold on to being mad. I have seen the bites from the calmest friends, and you're just way too calm to be that cool. But I think I'll keep it up, If you only knew, how I keep it up, how I just keep talking to you.

An institution sinks A poisoned well You're fire in the sea I'm ice in hell A cold sweat! Leave regrets for death They don't belong A weightless guarantee A whispered lie I can do all that you please Just let me sleep at night Because my head's a shipwreck Don't let it bring you any stress My heart is still strong Forward! If the time has come Ignore the cues, the starting gun To make a break and waste away with me The enemy, the charlatan The dead end street, the blown engine Yeah, money is thin Life's hard, but not for long Days changing states Passing like thoughts, like hearts My hands in yours We'll carry on Forward, girl! The day is ours Through blackened skies, with weary arms You state all of your claims and sing along No enemies, we charlatans Our dead end street, my blown engine Yeah, money is thin Life's hard, so hard But not for long
