Hold On 04:12
Every day a little further from the past Oh how some can fade and some will last Others can grow and others are cast In the stones of walls In the stones we use to break the glass In the bones we break to restore breath In the ones we lose to grips of death I’ll hold on I’ll hold on, I’ll hold on To the threads that you shed If I find that you’re gone I’ll hold on I’ll hold on, I’ll hold on To the blood that’s been bled If I find that you’re gone I’ll hold on Walk gently on freshly sown grass Leave prints on the handles of brass Take time to compare and contrast In the rituals In the lies we use to comfort friends In the cries we make to release stress In disguise as one to be blessed I’ll hold on Chorus We won’t meet again I’m afraid to say Like so many other things that are left in the way We won’t meet again I’m afraid to say Like so many other things that are left in the way A growing fear of the dark I’ll hold on To the life that we led But if you find I’m gone Please hold on Chorus

Never Know 02:54
You’ll never know me never know you Won’t you spend a little time with me? Before I have to go I’ll spend a little time with you So lock me up turn off the light Throw away the key Clearly reason alone can’t keep me here We both know that it’s all a big waste of time And it’s best to not interfere Maybe you’re wrong Wrong about the forecast, wrong about the sea Maybe you're wrong, Wrong about wrong the forecast wrong indefinitely Not everything can be the way you want Not everything can be your way Being alive is a compromise.
3.
Our spirits up head down No problems left to drown No purpose for us here There’s no reason to be bound You’ll find the things that last Are the things slow to burn Easy come easy go Often heard but hard to learn Often heard but hard to learn Winter sprung summer And it took me by surprise The days were for the lows And the nights were for the hights You’ll find the things that last Are the things slow to burn Easy come easy go Often heard but hard to learn Often heard but hard to learn Tear it up and tear it down x 4 You’ll find You’ll find the things that last Are the things slow to burn Easy come easy go Often heard but hard to learn Often heard but hard to learn

Memory is real, it comes down to emotions And that’s where you’re weak, most of you peak Proving your devotion I am not angry, I am not amused People often enjoy being abused Slip into something more comfortable What you wear when you’re alone More layers covering bone When you’re most vulnerable I am not angry, I am not amused People often enjoy being abused Did you focus too long? Now what’s blurry is wrong And that’s where you’re weak, most of you speak Of what you’ve known all along Known all alone
5.
The pretty things don’t mean what you think The pretty things that rise through the rank The pretty things don’t say what they mean The pretty things to mask the unclean The smell of fresh flowers, the smell of the oak The Staleness they hide, the paleness they cloak Don’t cry to me, when it’s healing you seek Don’t cry to me, the truth you can’t speak You’ve been deceived unintentionally You’ve been deceived by everything Don’t cry to me Don’t cry to me the truth you seek Don’t cry to me you’ve been deceived Don’t cry to me you’re not that weak Don’t cry to me
6.
People love to say you’ll regret the things you didn’t do Not the things you did, it’s a lovely cliche An easy way to get you to reflect on all the times Or for everything you did Everything else wasn’t done
7.
The clock is armed it means no harm It still imposes its will The clock is armed i’ve lost my charm Feeling over the hill The clock is armed sounds the alarm When I’m feeling most still The clock is armed it means no harm That doesn’t mean it won’t kill Doesn’t mean it won’t x 7 Doesn’t mean it won’t kill Didn’t die young that’s not your fault In the middle I’m getting caught Memories made to deceive Fighting off routine In life there’s no guarantees At least we’ve rolled up our sleeves Got our hands a little dirty To sleep in graves with conscience clean Doesn’t mean it won’t x7 Doesn’t mean it won’t kill
8.
Ignorance is bliss What ignorance is this? repeating the emotion But all the facts you miss To argue for the truth Is to argue for a myth Comes natural to those The spirits walk with Repeat Obdurance breeds No good deeds, no good deeds See what’s atrophied Lacking sympathy Unquestionable certainty Amazes me Comes natural to those Who lack humility Repeat Chorus No good deeds, no good deeds Never had empathy You can't walk in someone's shoes Change your mind with no breathe between Close your eyes to avoid changing views Never had empathy You can't walk in someone's shoes Change your mind with no breathe between Chorus

This is just a turn of phrase For everything you didn’t do Something else got done This is just a turn of phrase For everything you didn’t do Something else got done Something else got done, something else got done This is all a trap No way out People love to say You’ll regret the things you didn’t do And not the things you did People love to say You’ll regret the things you didn’t do And not the things you did It’s a lovely cliche It’s an easy way to get to you, it’s an easy way to get to you It’s an easy way to get you to, it’s an easy way to get you to Reflect on all the times you hid Don’t be too good, don’t be too shy I’ve watched the world pass those people by Don’t be too good, don’t be too shy I’ve watched the world pass those people by Don’t be too good, don’t be too shy I’ve watched the world pass those people by This is just a turn of phrase, this is just a turn of phrase, this is just a turn of phrase This is just a turn of phrase

The Rabbit 03:31
The Rabbit has stained the face of the moon Better hurry up, the sun is rising soon The Rabbit has stained the face of the moon Better hurry up, better hurry up Hope to die My Heart I cross Not lost for good The good I’ve lost The good I’ve lost Trying to provide, protect and partake Nothing could survive the snares that you stake It didn’t have to end so violently but Thieves they rule the night stealing silently Thieves they rule the night Chorus All the marks that you bare While trying to repair All get swept away Into obscurity That’s the way it seems But I still see you in dreams The Moonlight Levels the field You see what I see No colors revealed No colors revealed Chorus
11.
One day your feeling will match the look You gotta hold on to it tight You’ll never get back all the time you took Looking for the light In the cellar of the past The very few things that last There’s no way left to defend The harvestmen Was it love or close enough You know i’m the pretender At least I pretend to be When I’m the defender In the cellar of the past The very few things that last There’s no way left to defend The harvestmen Leave you pretty, stupid, young Leave you ageing on a skeleton hung Leave you hollow and silent Like the harvestmen Don’t be convinced that nothing is the same If change is constant, nothing can change To the things that you loved the most To the things that you wanted It never was, will never be You can’t go back once you’ve gone away The moment you leave it begins to decay It’s not a reason for you to stay It’s going to be ok It’s going to be ok
12.
Precision 03:25
I let you cut me open With precision, a plan to remove what’s diseased Secretly hoping Everyone wishing But i’ll let you do as you please Something inside of me wrong Something inside of me wrong Something inside of me gone I left with just a token Of the vision, ready to nurse what’s left of me The words so softly spoken Of decisions, leaving you the indemnitee Secretly hoping Everyone wishing But I’ll let you do as you please Something has got to be wrong Something inside of me wrong Something has got to be wrong I’ll not lead you closer Strive for separation I’ll not lead you closer Strange infatuation Secretly hoping Everyone wishing But I’ll let you do as you please Something inside of me wrong Something inside of me wrong Something inside of me gone Something has gotta be wrong Something inside of me wrong Something inside of me wrong Something inside of me gone
13.
Of It All 03:54
By the time you reach the light that you seek The suns already been set Start over again We aren’t getting out of this alive It doesn’t matter how hard you try You can learn the truth or buy a lie Either one will help to pass the time The way you sing to me sells it so easily A simple waltz to the end Embrace my friend Chorus We seem to be haunted We seem to be close To breaking into the middle Of it all Of it all Love it all...
