Glass Tightrope

I know what you said
When you left my bed
Now it's all that echoes through my mind
When you looked at me and said you would be mine

Just Out of Focus
04:49
|
|||
|
I am standing right in your way
It's not your fault you couldn't read the grey
The thought looms closer almost everyday
Nothing has changed
Drove my car up and down the street
This is the only place that I can think
I'm missing you in the passenger's seat
Off in the mountains
My shadow remains
And you can stare right at me
But I'll be just out of focus
I know that you're out there
You didn't believe in the gates
So trust when I'm saying
I'm on my way
I'm neutral
I'm still a character
But I'm a side-quest
There's no progress

Time Passes, People Move
04:15

You always told me, "time passes, people move"
The water washes away what's left, an emptiness
You always told me, "time passes, people move"
You always told me, "time passes, people move"
Retcon me out of your life (retcon me out)
Retcon me out of your life (retcon me)
Retcon me out of your life (retcon me out)
Retcon me out of your life, please
As the curtain falls
I can see it all
Standing in the hall
Please pick up this call

Softest Bullet
02:47
|
|||
|
It just missed you
It barely grazed you
The softest bullet ever shot
Flew right past without a thought
And struck my head
Oh yeah
It just missed you
It barely grazed you
Ferris wheels and parking lots
I wouldn't dare to let them rot
Can't fade away
Can't go out like that
I can't fade away
I can't go out like that
So move along
There's nothing left to see
There's nothing left for me
Is there room in the story for me?
Is there room in the story for me?

Behind I-5
04:18
|
|||
|
I got out of the water
My brain lopsided
And then I climbed the ladder
To get a better view
Saw beyond my moment
Saw a sea of cars
And I saw a billion people
And they could see me too
I miss my old friends
If only I could remember them
I look back at where I was
The waves all down below
And I sit back down
And down into the water
And all I can do is remember
And all I can do is remember
Would you be a dear and remember?

Well, hello there
My, it's been a long long time
How am I doing?
Oh, well I guess I'm doing fine
It's been so long now
And it seems like
It was only yesterday
Yeah, ain't it funny
How time slips away
You’re above
Hope you’re doing fine
I wish that I was there
To make you mine
Now I feel that
It's all over
And I can't feel my face
Gee, ain't it funny
How I'll slip away
Gotta go now
I guess I'll see you around
A long road ahead
Please listen gently
While I fall down
Gee, ain't it funny
How I'll slip away
We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

Cracking with the Dawn
04:06
|
|||
|
He's fighting for breath
No air in his chest
Suffocating inside of his head
They'll take him apart
Keep his bones in a jar
Preserving his heart inside of a Tupperware box
Yet another goodbye
Softly weeping as I
Carry his coffin away
As the sun comes up
I'm cracking with the dawn
As the sun comes up
I'm cracking with the dawn
Barely hanging on
His ghost nearly gone
Oozing out of the cracks in the back of my skull
Now I'm all alone
In this dirt we once called home
Digging my six foot deep hole in its spot next to yours
I'm cracking with the dawn
I know it won't be long
I'm on my way down
As the sun comes up
I'm cracking with the dawn
As the sun comes up
I'm cracking with the dawn
As the sun comes up
I'm cracking with the dawn
As the sun comes up
I'm cracking with the dawn
We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
I can't stop myself from waking up
I can't open your eyes
Anymore

In Remission
03:24
|
|||
|
Hard stop on the concrete
Blood leaks from my ears
There's no sense remembering
All I see is the veneer
I thought I could wake up
And enter a world without you
But the bottle's running empty
As my memory renews
I know the show must be over
But goddamn, we had a good run
I'll spend the rest of my life looking over your shoulder
In remission I'll remain
I know the show must be over
But damn, we had a good run
I'll spend the rest of my life looking over your shoulder
In remission I'll remain
Until the dirt fills up my brain

When Everyone Forgets
01:59

And what about that man?
What about you?
What about Denshaws?
What about you?
Martin, for a worthless old drunk
No earthly good to anyone
It doesn't matter anymore who you were or where
Every town, every city is just like the last
A waypoint on an endless road that goes nowhere
A place to stop running, to think, to hide
Another job, another name
Is that enough?
It has to be
It's all you've got
|
||||
11. |

|
Is there room in the story for us?
I am the answer
And you are the question
I stared out my window
A cloud of crows engulfed the sun
It was you
I just knew
I'll have my heart attack
Die at 34
I'll still be right here
I'll still be right here
Have your heart attacked
Don't come crying
I'll still be right here
I'll still be right here

Just Like You Are

I try to rocket but it would not fly
Sorry Houston but I built it on a lie
There is gravity between us but I'm getting pulled down
I really wish you would just come back to the ground
You are high on your silver chair
I once knew who you were
Now I see you from afar
You, you are just another
Another star
Oh I'm sorry Penelope, my boats off track
But unlike Odysseus I won't get back
I have my memories, you have the same face
But that girl before is another place
I was different and you were too
Our past is a window that we can look through
I know there's others here
Your lasting effect on me is what I fear
Now I don't know who you are
You are just another star
Unreachable and beautiful
I see them every night
They're so far away
Just like you are
You’re another star
Oh
Another star
Oh
|
||||
13. |
||||
|
I'll leave it alone
Now that I know the answer
There isn't any room
There isn't any room in the story for us
For us
There isn't any room in the story for us

Lucky Note
03:12
|
|||
|
I know the show is tonight
Just wanna make sure you're alright
Baby, you're my lucky note
I'll sing it right on the tone
Cause people disappear, they go away
But please babe, not today
We can sail right through
The waves of dreams anew
The waves of dreams anew
I tried to push my way through
But there's nothing I can do
Just trying to make my way to you
Just trying to make my way to you
Just trying to make my way to you

Plastic Roots
07:47
|
|||
|
It's all on me
I pushed you from that tree
The stars dance in your eyes
But nothing lies beyond
Nothing lies beyond
It's all me
Decomposing
The stars look nicely in your eyes
But they're setting like the moon
Like the moon
I'm demanding
For a stand-in
I can't do this again
So I'll start taking
Your applications
Who can be me better than I was?
With all thats gone wrong
Where the hell is this astroid?
We've taken too long
At this point you're pretty much out of my mind
But when I close my eyes I think about you all the time

An Epilogue
04:20
|
|||
|
Now I know there's no room in the story
But at least I made the front page
Leather bound, cover closed, yes, it's over
I'll see you at the end of my own
We've all got arcs and they're waning
So make the most of each page
Choose each word like it's your last one
The finale is on its way
Now it's all that echoes through my mind
When you looked at me and said you would be mine
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
I miss my old friends
If I only remember them
Wish they could be here with me
The old, the old me
The endgame, he has won
But for how long?
Another night and another road
And still the deadly game goes on
So must he
North, South, East, West
A man alone
The fugitive
