Wax Poetic

"She always seems to color me
The only shade she couldn't see
I am transparent, I am a ghost
A grain of sand on the Sunshine Coast
I woke up today
And figured I'd burn everything
That made me think of you
And the saddest part is
I was left with nothing by the time that I was through
You had me like the first breath of a Midwest autumn evening
As the sunset fades to cold air to freeze the evergreens
So can we take some time to redefine what it is you thought you'd find
'Cause when you left that night, you left me behind
I woke up today
And figured I'd burn everything
That made me think of you
And the saddest part (the saddest part) is I was left with nothing
You were fibers in the thread that stitched demons in my head
The reason I'll drink on my own tonight instead
I never thought three beautiful words would have a grip so tight
You crippled my throat
You crippled my throat
She always seems to color me
The only shade she couldn't see
I am transparent
Transparent as a ghost."

Breathing In Sequence
03:33

"Breathing in the same sequence
While trying to make sense of your situation
What we got ourselves in, two more weeks of one way conversation
She says she's losing interest
I swear that we are best friends till the end
This could be the plans for revenge
But these words lead to dead ends
So close your eyes and kiss me like it's our last time
These lips need medication, these days are dripping poison, girl
Days to turn to nights, I wish on the stars in the sky
Be careful of the brightest, beauty is on the inside
I wish I could, but I know I can't take it back, it's serious
Just like heart attacks
My personality, avoid the scenery, I hate playing games with the industry
That builds these dreams, and tears them down
When my heart breaks, it makes a sound
This could be the plans for revenge
But these words lead to dead ends
So close your eyes and kiss me like it's our last time
These lips need medication, these days are dripping poison, girl
Days to turn to nights I wish on the stars in the sky
Be careful of the brightest, beauty is on the inside
So close your eyes and kiss me like it's our last time
These lips need medication, these days are dripping poison, girl
Days to turn to nights I wish on the stars in the sky
Beauty is on the inside
Beauty's on the inside."

"Well, sad, small, sweet, so delicate
We used to be this dying breed
I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about this
You kept still until the long drive home
And slept safe and close to the window
I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about
Who's to say you'll have to go? (I could go all night)
Well, say you'll have to go (I could go all)
To hell with you and all your friends
To hell with you and all your friends, it's on
Well, sad, small, sure and porcelain
You're skin and bones, I'm a nervous wreck
I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about this
You kept still until the long drive home
You slept safe and close to the window
I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about
Who's to say you'll have to go? (I could go all night)
Well, say you'll have to go (I could go all)
To hell with you and all your friends
To hell with you and all your friends, it's on
I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about
Anyone will do tonight
Anyone will do tonight
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Anyone will do tonight
Anyone will do tonight
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Anyone will do tonight
Anyone will do tonight
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Well, I've got a bad feeling about this (to hell with you and all your friends it's on)
I've got a bad feeling about this
I'm coming over but it never was enough
I thought it through and my worst brings out the best in you
I've got a bad feeling about this (to hell with you and all your friends, it's on)
I've got a bad feeling about this
I'm coming over but it never was enough
I thought it through and my worst brings out the best in you
I've got a bad feeling about this (to hell with you and all your friends, it's on)
I've got a bad feeling about this
Coming over, but it never was enough
I thought it through and my worst brings out the best in you
I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about this
(To hell with you...straight to fucking hell)
I'm coming over, but it never was enough
I thought it through and my worst brings out the best in you
I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about this
I'm coming over, but it never was enough
I thought it through and my worst brings out the best in you
I've got a bad feeling about this
I've got a bad feeling about this (I am you)
I've got a bad feeling about this (I am you)
I've got a bad feeling about this (I am you)
I've got a bad feeling about this (I am you)
I've got a bad feeling about this (I am you)
I got it bad
I got it bad
I got it bad
I got it bad
I got it bad
I got it bad."

"When the sun came up
We were sleeping in
Sunk inside our blankets
Sprawled across the bed
And we were dreaming
There are moments when
When I know it ends
The world revolves around us
And we're keeping it
Keep it all going
This delicate balance
Vulnerable, all knowing
Sing like you think no one's listening
You would kill for this
Just a little bit
Just a little bit
You would
Sing like you think no one's listening
You would kill for this
Just a little bit
Just a little bit
You would, you would
Sing me something soft
Sad and delicate
Or loud and out of key
Sing me anything
We're glad for what we've got
Done with what we've lost
Our whole lives laid out
Right in front of us
Sing like you think no one's listening
You would kill for this
Just a little bit
Just a little bit
You would
Sing like you think no one's listening
You would kill for this
Just a little bit
Just a little bit
You would, you would
Sing me something soft
Sad and delicate
Or loud and out of key
Sing me anything."

This Time Imperfect
05:45

"I cannot leave here, I cannot stay
Forever haunted, more than afraid
Asphyxiate on words I would say
I'm drawn to a blackened sky as I turn blue
There are no flowers, no, not this time
There'll be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words, I find
I'd show a smile, but I'm too weak
I'd share with you, could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me
I cannot stay here, I cannot leave
Just like all I loved, all make believe
Imagine heart, I disappear
Seems no one will appear here and make me real
There are no flowers, no, not this time
There'll be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words, I find
I'd show a smile, but I'm too weak
I'd share with you, could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me
I'd tell you how it haunts me
I'd tell you how it haunts me
(Cuts through my days, and slips into my dreams)
I'd tell you how it haunts me
(Cuts through my days, and slips into my dreams)
You don't care that it haunts me
There are no flowers, no, not this time
There'll be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words, I find
I'd show a smile, but I'm too weak
I'd share with you, could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me
Just how much this hurts me
Just how much you..."

Apricity
03:24

"Between summer's last sunset and winter's first breath stood a light that split the night.
Guiding me to the safety of the shores.
Shielding me from memories cast down on me like tidal waves, I'm laid to waste in a blackened abyss below.
Though she's gone, what remains eclipses my loss.
She remains the apricity in my heart throughout time."
