Wonder Veil

Everything's always falling
Falling through my feet like I'm the only one
Inside of my head
How am I supposed to lead
When it's always been a dream of mine it seems
I cannot wake today
I know too much to say a word
Every time I lose my wonder veil
Feels like I've been taken for all that I had
With no hope of ever getting it back
This time it will be different
What a way to stay inside the empty hole
There's no telling how far it goes
Can I find a way to leave
And a game to play that puts my mind at ease
Instead of tearing me
To believe I need to win to be happy
Every time I lose my wonder veil
Feels like I've been taken for all that I had
With no hope of ever getting it back
Everything's always falling

One-Armed Bandit

Don't wait too long to become my friend
I'll never let you down again
Never let you down again
Someone help me battle this to the end
I'll never ask you to again
If you just let me in
I live meagerly
Nothing comes for free
Unless you break inside the machine
I try to make my way through this god awful place
Every since I remember my eyes would go
And if I ever saw the end what would happen then
Could it take one spin to lose control
One-armed bandit
I can't stand it
I'm losing my hard-earned pay
Hundreds in it
Lost in minutes
Betting on a written way
Could it be so high the chance to lose all you made
All the bills and the rent don't give me hope
The more you lose the more you try to regain a bit
Keep it to yourself, if I win you'll know
One-armed bandit
I can't stand it
I'm losing my hard-earned pay
Hundreds in it
Lost in minutes
Betting on a written way

Reel Lies
03:35

|
I'm losing your trust
Feels like empty
Reel lies lately
No more escape
I do what I must
But somehow I'm sick
Wishing always
On the four ones
To change my life
And someone has to be the same
Always plays to win the game
Leaving me dry
And balling up to hide

I'm Yours

Will I be lonely for a hundred years
Or will you be mine for the time
It's only love
It's only love
That makes the way I feel
I've got so much to say
But some days the silence is all I portray
Don't turn you away
I'm yours
Will I be lonely for a hundred years
Or will you be mine all the time
All the time
It's only love
It's only love
That makes the way I feel
I've got so much to say
But some days the silence is all I portray
Don't turn you away
I'm yours
I've got so much to say
But some days the silence is all I portray
Don't turn you away
I'm yours

Dream I've won to keep myself around
What we want we know it can't be found
What we find, addiction to a lie
Pay a price to chase a different life
It's as small as us
We don't care what's going on down there
7235 I'm still alive
As long as I'm here
Anytime I feel it coming on
I just try to keep one thing in mind
Wealth is not awarded overnight
And those who lie will find it hard to thrive
Try to understand
It's so hard to get this out of my head
7235 I'm still alive
As long as I'm here

If I had to kill right now
What would I use
I'm not just another thing
Made for your abuse
I'd probably take this axe in hand
Put it to good use
Slam it right into your back
To keep you guessing who
No one knows
No one knows
If I had to kill right now
What would I use
I was never just another thing
Made for your abuse
It doesn't take a rotting vein
To see what we've come to
The chaos of an uphill race
That no one wants to lose
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
So life goes

In his shadow I can see
Creeping towards him eerily
Innocent he wants to leave
But when he speaks I can't breathe
I can feel you
I can hear you
Early warning took him in
Sudden sickness ravages
How are we supposed to choose
When time decides we both lose
I can feel you
I can see you
Are you getting tired of waiting
Are you getting tired of having nothing to show
Are you getting tired of waiting
Are you getting tired of having nothing to show
Are you getting tired of waiting
Are you getting tired of having nothing to show
Are you getting tired of waiting
Are you getting tired of having nothing to show
[Go on, lazy afternoon]
Are you getting tired of waiting
Are you getting tired of having nothing to show
Are you getting tired of waiting
Are you getting tired of having nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
[Go on, lazy afternoon]
Nowhere to go
Are you getting tired of waiting
Are you getting tired of having nothing to show
Are you getting tired of waiting
Are you getting tired of having nothing to show

So Says The Man

Stranger years yet to come
Early warning for the waking one
Way things are is so absurd
Hear it closely from a rich man's word
So said the man there will be no love
Be no love
So says the man
So said the man there will be no love
Be no love
So says the man
