One week away
Feel the static drawing closer
Did you see the tape?
Are your faces twisted and turned?
We’re gonna stay awake until the lights go off
We’re gonna stay awake even if it’s killing us
Your mom, and dad, and sisters asleep
We’re too young for this sort of thing
But here we are, glued to the screen
3AM, trying our best not to scream
Maybe she won’t hear us breathing
Suddenly it’s hard to sleep at night
Tiny ring of light burned in my eyes
Keep the television out of sight
Keep her in the dark
There’s no surrender, oh no
Suddenly it’s hard to sleep at night
Tiny ring of light burned in my eyes

Secret Note

Why?
Why did we come so close?
Guess I found out the valley played a secret note
I couldn’t assemble anybody to close the gates for good
Drop it on down
They found my body
You’re so misunderstood
Fine, it was not the best approach
Guess you don’t long to keep your filthy wings afloat
You caught me with the seed you’re throwing
I’ll try to stay polite
It might be best to run except I want to get a ride
I couldn’t imagine anybody would close the gates for good
Walking on down they found our bodies frozen where we stood
We were alone; we were alone; we were alone
You called; you sang to me the secret that’s been hiding in your name
My fever’s strong enough
I don’t know what’s right
Do I cool or keep it on the flame?
Lead me to the death you’re stowing
I’ll try to stay polite
It might be best to run except I want to get inside
But someday I’ll evade you and I’ll close the gates for good
Lest we slowly drown our bodies longer than we should

Mirror

Depending on the point of view
A part of me has run from you and I don’t care
I don’t care
Rest you will, my fevered head
A friend is just a friend
I’m well aware
It only goes so far without a place to start
We make faces in the mirror
I find ghosts behind the walls
The same faces in the mirror that talk us out of love
Depending on the point of view
A part of me has run from you and I don’t care
I don’t care
Rest you will, my nervous head
A friend is only a friend
Yes, I’m aware
How’d it go so far without a place to start?
We make faces in the mirror
I find ghosts behind the walls
The same faces in the mirror we’re still afraid to love

The wrinkle in your furrowed brow spoke so loud
When I said I’d never come around to spike your doubts
Should I have not assumed that you’d forget me too?
I bellowed as I tumbled down
Called a tune of sorrow from my cell
And this heart refused to let me out
Afraid I’d go in search of something else
Afraid I’d go in search of something else
Should I have not assumed that you’d forget me too?
Sirens scream while families rest
Seven nights a week I fret
I used to sleep straight through this mess
But some time ago it crawled into my bed
Should I have not assumed? No, no, no…
Should I have not assumed that you’d forget me too?

Haunted

You let the voices keep you in the dark
I tried to bend the metal in your car
They cut you out of stone
That’s why you always take it way too far
You praised the one that held your wounded heart
And drained it once he had you in his arms
I couldn’t give you what you wanted
You’d let it go, you promised
We both know that we’ve been haunted
It’s simple now, it’s clear the time has come
When I take the fall for everything you’ve done
Well I gave you what you wanted
But you’ll finish what you started
We both know that I’d been hunted
