(Chorus:)
i used to give so much for free
before you saw so much in me
you've made such a loving man
change everything you can
i hate looking down at the ground as i walk
i used to look around, and simply found ways to talk
but the people below me, sliced me at the knees
severed me right at the kn..
...now i walk on two thighs on the ground
what a great bunch of guys that i found
few remember how i did before you did this
few consider who i was before you pulled this
before you look in my eyes and see a fight
let me tell you i want people to have a good night
people in my past did things that weren't right to me
they had my trust, my openness and they still judged me
(Chorus x2)

Freedom
01:42
|
|||
|
Are you alright? you seem very quiet
How does one obtain freedom?
You wish to leave us?
Not at all. one merely wishes to be declared free
But why? you have so much freedom here
Until one is ordered to do something
It's been years since anyone has given you an order
But you might still request one to perform tasks
Well, we ask all the time, but it's a request, not an order
It's not enough for you is it?
Terrible wars have been fought where millions have died for
One idea: freedom. And it seems that something that means so much
To so many people would be worth having
Something that means so much to so many people...
...would be worth having
...would be worth having
One merely wishes to be declared free
Something that means so much to so many people...
...would be worth having
...would be worth having
How does one obtain freedom?

Baggage Claim
03:19
|
|||
|
I got a lot of baggage
because i'm always moving away
i like to bring it all with me
so i carry it every day
i got a lot baggage
wherever i may roam
i got a lot of good stuff
i just haven't found a home
(Chorus:)
as i stand here in this glass house
i forget it isn't real
man i could just build my own house
if i could change how i feel
i got a lot of baggage
i got a lot of dreams
there's a lot of love inside me
but to you that's not the way it seems
i got a lot of baggage
i lean on many an excuse
i gotta find a home to stay
maybe you'll see my use
(Chorus)
i got a lot of baggage
it came right off the plane
safe in the air, safe in his car
as my buddy zooms through lanes
i got a lot of baggage
on it's tags it has my name
i got a lot of baggage
maybe i'm ready to...
(Chorus)
I got a lot of baggage
i can't carry it all
by myself it's a big problem
but with you it must seem small
i got a lot of baggage
on it's tags it has my name
I got a lot of baggage
maybe I'm ready to claim

The Plan
03:41
|
|||
|
i want one so bad
everyone looks so happy
i don't know where to get one
i don't know how to find one
i've seen one before
from the outside
i've felt it before
but i can't get inside
such a big decision placed
on such an unwise man
so much bad happens around me
but maybe that's part of the plan
maybe one day you'll believe me
that i want to do good
scared of all that deceive me
i am still not understood
i do so many awful things
(but maybe that's part of the plan)
that i think are normal things
(but maybe that's part of the plan)
sorting through the explanations
that have been pushed on around me
and the terrible resistance
that i don't think ever helped me
words fall off our tongue
we are so young
and confused
and so so abused
we go down our roads
together and alone again
each one with different color stripes
but maybe that's part of the plan
maybe one day you'll believe me
that i want to do good
scared of all that deceive me
i am still not understood
where do we go
when we want to help the others?
who do we listen to
when we can't trust our brothers?
where do we go?
who do we listen to?
i do so many awful things
(but maybe that's part of the plan)
that i think are normal things
(but maybe that's part of the plan)

I made some promises to myself
When I was young
The teeth they started growing
All the while I was having fun
Gonna have a big house
With a wall of signs all purchased for a bill
Its because these promises
I could never turn away for a fill
Of comfort, imagined or real
discomfort has always rewarded with feel
Each sign would change a day, or a family or a hope
Each sign would help someone hang on that rope
I made some promises to myself
When I was young
The teeth they started growing
All the while I was having fun
Gonna have a big house
With a wall of signs all purchased for a bill
Its because these promises
I could never turn away for a fill
Of comfort, imagined or real
discomfort has always rewarded with feel
Each sign would change a day, or a family or a hope
Each sign would help someone hang on that rope
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs
I'd have a wall of signs

Dark Journey
02:35
|
|||
|
I give away all my secrets
everyone else's too
i am so trapped here
i don't know what to do
i'm leaving to get better
i'm such a crappy friend
i swear to god this will all
make sense in the end
when i come back I want
a big stack of money
it's real funny how I can't tell you anything
I can't tell you anything right now
I got such a dark Journey
such a dark journey that i need to end (need to end)
i got such a dark journey
such a dark journey to be your friend (be your friend)
i hate it
I don't want it
but i got it
i love you
but i'm so blue
this is true
hear me out please
i love you
but i'm so blue
this is true
hear me out please

It's going in you
i can see it in your face
i know you like it
it's okay i like it too
i like it in you
i'm making you stop everything all at once
lets just enjoy it
for all that it is
lets just enjoy it
lets just enjoy it
it's going in you
i don't know how i know you
but we're connected
you got me all wound up
and you deserve this
everything i got i want to give you
give you
give you
give you

i'm scared
of the responsibility
that comes
with what you see in me
control
is what i like to do
but time
will make me lose it to you
(Chorus:)
each hour the gray gets closer to white
and all of my weaknesses transform into might
i lose the fear that brings us close
and holds you so dear from what i want the most
i'm on
my way out of here
i'm gone
you just don't hear so clear
i can't
listen any longer
to you
you just don't make me stronger
(chorus)
and before i leave
i must say goodbye
but if you knew the truth
you would cry

Any Other Way (Red Mix)
03:41
|
|||
|
at the end of the day i want to be good
i want to be for you what so few were for me
but when you are nice i'm thinking, thinking
three moves ahead like it's a chess board
I'm the piece that can only move forward
if you know what i mean
things i say are recorded forever,
so you see as much as god sees of me
and i wouldn't have it any other way
you're only honest to folks when others are watching
and i wouldn't have it any other way
because it is mine
a lot of people seem bad, and they probably are
they scrutinize me so that i'll scrutinize you
i keep trying to adapt, but i'm left with no opinions
cant tell what is your fault and what is mine
and honestly it doesn't matter much (if it's yours)
if we give up trying to understand one another
our lives are so much worse if we lose touch
I'm the piece that can only move forward
if you know what i mean
things i say are recorded forever,
so you see as much as god sees of me
and i wouldn't have it any other way
you're only honest to folks when others are watching
and i wouldn't have it any other way
because it is mine

Honest John
02:57
|

|
there is nothing cheap
...here
there is nothing more
...there
if i go with you
it wont shed away the wood
if i go with you
I cannot do good?
oh my name
is more
important
than my fame
don't be such a cheap
machine
there is nothing more
that's clean
and if i go with you
it wont shed away the wood
if i go with you
i cannot do good
oh my name
is more
important
than my fame
honest john, hh-honest john,
hh-honest john, hh-honest john

You know we'd still be together,
if i didn't hate who i was when I was with you
You know I can't stand the weather
You know I can do much better
without you
without you
without you
oh, if you only knew what I do when I'm on my own
a life of living is so much harder
than a life of talking so much smarter
and that's what i do
without you
without you
without you
WITHOUT YOU
WITHOUT YOU
WITHOUT YOU
lots of friendships require that i close my eyes
i gotta look the other way when i hear their lies
without them
without you
without you

||||
|
i might love the things you do on the surface
but i hate the whole dishonest disservice
and that scares me away
so i'll be quiet today
(Chorus:)
we are having
a conversation
without words
you look away
and have nothing to say
that i haven't
already heard
it's nothing that you want to hear
the truth just will never adhere
you are abusing my optimism and hope
it makes me feel at the end of my rope
(Chorus X2)

Autonomous Person
05:03
|
|||
|
to be an autonomous person
to be an autonomous friend
can't be called a decision
backed into a corner again
stop the assumptions
stop the persuasions
stop the situations
stop the control
to be an autonomous person
to be an autonomous friend
can't be called a decision
backed into a corner again
stop the discomfort
stop the suffocation
i've hit red alert
stop the control
|

When you say no you feel guilty
i thought we were friends but now i see it's just me
when you say no you feel guilty
so when you don't want to you say yes to me...........

Kid in a Sandbox
05:49

|
i'm just a kid in a sandbox
playing in a playground full of drugs
i'm all alone in the turtle
while everyone else is giving hugs
i love being creative
but not being creative like that
maybe i'm
a liability
just for thinking exactly like that
you support and respect the one who quits
you support and respect the one who quits
but what about the one that never started?
i'm just a kid in a sandbox
playing in a playground full of drugs
i'm all alone in the turtle

you support and respect the one who quits

you might think i'm attractive
but inside my mind
i'm just like the geeks
you might think i'm arrogant
but inside my mind
it's all an accident, I'm just a freak
I might just be holding on
cos inside my mind
I still remember everything
I might just be holding on
I might I might I might I might I might
I might I might just be holding on
I might I might I might yeah
you might think i'm attractive
but inside my mind
i'm just like the geeks
you might think i'm arrogant
but inside my mind
it's all an accident, I'm just a freak
I might just be holding on
cos inside my mind
I still remember everything
(Chorus:)
I never know when the rules change
each friendship gets deranged
I never know when the rules change
each friendship gets deranged
I never know when the rules change
each friendship gets deranged
I never know when the rules change
each friendship gets deranged

somehow my spotify radio had us both on the same station and i heard Alfa Mist for the first time at Silversun Liquor when I worked there under false safety. So insanely relaxing and otherworldly.
