Cut Me

You never have much nice to say
All your words are dull and gray
Your world must be unending bleak
I often wish you'd never speak
You were my friend
You were my life
Until you cut me
And you left me to die
I've moved on from your ugly ways
I'll make it no matter what you say
You can keep all your shit to yourself
It's plain you'll never wish me well
You were my friend
You were my life
Why did you cut me
And leave me there to die
I try and I try
To find a way
To make you say
I love you
You won't begin
To make the change
To see the way
To the light
You were my friend
You were my life
Until you cut me
And you left me there to die
You were my friend
You were my life
Why did you cut me
And leave me with your lies

Free Me

When the time comes
You'll notice
How my heart runs
You're closest
Take my hand
You can take it
Where you want to
I can't stop you
Even if I wanted to
Take my hand
Please believe me
You can free me
You can break it
I don't miss
How I can't run
Make a break toward the sun
Here's my hand
Please believe me
You can free me
Where did it all go wrong
I trapped myself just to show
Now I'm stuck in a cage
I can't escape on my own
Please believe me
You can free me
Please believe me
I still love you

Piece By Piece

You've got a lot of faith in your direction
I hope it leads you from destruction
I don't see how you keep from making mistakes
taking on more than you can handle
I find myself walking down the wrong road
thorns cut my shins, vines strangle my thoughts
my feet ripped raw by shards of glass expecations
broken on rocks of my sanity
I can't be everywhere at once
I'll rip apart piece by piece
You've got a lot of faith in your interpretations
I hope they lead you to the truth
I don't see how you keep making assumptions
Winning more than anyone should
I see myself slipping underwater
I watch the pieces of me float away
My head explodes when I can feel the pressure
broken teeth, no more sympathy
I can't be everywhere at once
I'll rip apart piece by piece
I can't be everywhere at once
I'll rip apart piece by piece

My Machine
03:15

She walks in off the street
Makes a line straight for me
Keeps her hands tucked to her sides
I can't see she's got me blind
She makes a move all curves and blades
Whips her hair and I need aid
I can tell it's no surprise
If I don't come I'm gonna die
She's got my
She's got my machine
Keep my hands where she can see
On her lips I plant the dream
Take a ride in her corvette
I may be blind but I know what's next
Find a beach just up north
I try to scream, but I'm hoarse
I can tell it's no surprise
If she won't come I know she'll die
She's got my
She's got my machine
She's got eyes and razor blades
Such a high I'll never taste
Keeps her hands tucked between her thighs
I can't see she's got me blind
Keep my hands where she can see
On her lips I plant the dream
She makes her moves all touch and taste
I do my best to reciprocate
I can tell it's no surprise
If we don't come I know we'll die
She's got my
She's got my
She's got my machine

Missed You
03:20

You were never there
And I know it can't seem fair
Now you're gone for good
And I am alone, again
And I only want to say
How much I wish you'd stayed
You dear should be afraid
of things you never said
And time is the only way
I can be okay
Sometimes, now you're dead
I hear you in my head
Cause it's the only way
I can be okay

Long Way Down
04:32

And there's a moment
Where they reach out and they touch you
But you don't know
Why they can't leave you alone
You just want to
Make it by yourself without their help
But you don't know
How to keep yourself sane in the process
It's a long way down
You've got to have the ground beneath your feet
The waves a distance out to sea
The air above to let you breathe
The space inside to accept what's real
You've got to make the space around you feel
Like the comfort that used to be real
Lock it up so no one can steal
That piece of you only you can heal
And in that moment
Where they reach out and they eat you
You take the feeling
And you eat it for your self
It's a long way down
You've got to have the ground beneath your feet
The waves a distance out to sea
The air above to let you breathe
The space inside to accept what's real
You've got to make the space around you feel
Like the comfort that used to be real
Lock it up so no one can steal
That piece of you only you can heal
