I Don't Want To Dream

I'm owning up to it
I've got plenty to go off now
I've got a monster built
but it's weak at the knees and easily falls down
Every waking moment I see it die
dead dead dead in the blink of an eye
I just want to live
I don't want to dream I just want to live
If it's abandonment
issues see a shrink don't talk to me
cause by my notes
I've been on my own since age 16
no it's not a mess
no I'm not a wreck
though I've had help along the way
I've walked head first into every hell I made
every waking moment I see dreams die
dead dead dead in the blink of an eye
I just want to live
I don't want to dream I just want to live
no it's not a mess
no I'm not a wreck
though I've had help along the way
I've walked head first into every hell I made
every waking moment I see dreams die
dead dead dead in the blink of an eye
I just want to live
I don't want to dream I just want to live
but every waking moment I see dreams die
so I'll fight fight fight for my life
but every waking moment I see dreams die
so I'll fight fight fight for my life

This is where the calm stops
illusions fascinations bored relations negotiate
their way out
of paying for miscommunicated
hatred of why love faded into the pavement and trailed into the
sewers where my lab sends its rays through every fiber of my veins
while my vision blurs I see the shadow of you turn
What a time what a place to be mislead
are you the lost in my head
that gives me reason to sin
what is this
your body is trashed
I guess your stuck with this plan I set
lucky for me your a root in anarchy
A child lost with no road
a mind lost with no remorse
the perfect companion to start a disaster
this is where the rain starts
the collapse of gods
chambers of hiders come uncovered in fire
oh whoa
oh my my this mess we made
in such little time
What a time what a place to be set free
aiming for nothing but catastrophy with
the perfect companion to start a disaster

I Mean, I Partake

Empty the vase, empty the vase
turn into a basket case
empty the gin into your skin
if a needle will be faster just stick it in
the look on your face is a dramatic attempt
to get someone to pay for everything
and not just the drinks
I mean, I partake
in the same mistakes
and I still owe plenty to the bank
amoebas in space
have the right idea
finding just one, becoming just one
the flowers they die on the floor over night
the pedals escape out the door
I guess just like everyone else their looking for something more
the ozone is harsh in the sticky marsh
and the alligators see their prey
thats reason enough to show anyone
the benefits of suggesting to stay
I've been accused, I've been accused
of letting down a woman or two
I've been accused, by a brain cell or two
of sabotaging a relationship or two
I've been accused, I've been accused
of letting down a woman or two
I've been accused, by a brain cell or two
of sabotaging my future with you

The Ghost Has Returned

what do you have to say now, you're left in shambles
broken reflections
cover your distaste with the melting planet
all around you
sink, an anchor with no hope, and now
your looking for a way to
Breathe, The ghost has returned
to haunt with no mercy, no sense of urgency
just a constant strain on you
what you long for, is far past attainable
no peace of mind in sight
drag, the days drag on
pulling you back to earth
grow, your growing weary
dragging the added weight
you sink, an anchor with no hope
looking for a way to
Breathe, The ghost has returned
so, what now
to amend the steps we took
so, what now
to pick up where we left off
to haunt with no mercy, no sense of urgency
just a constant strain on you, what you long for
is far past attainable, no peace of mind in sight
Breathe, The ghost has returned
