Once I felt you walking by the kitchen light
But when I saw you, you ran quickly out of sight
What could I have done wrong?
Should have whispered a song?
I wonder, I wonder because
I’m more afraid of myself than you
Once you came as far as the corridor
But at the threshold you were simply gone before
Before I could ask you to stay
Before I could even explain that
I’m more afraid of myself than you
It’s not fun in the dark
With no one to hold on to
What could I have done wrong?
Should have whispered a song? I wonder, I wonder

I Hold Your Horses
04:41
|

I’d hold a bible
If it could keep the reins
On your heart in the dark
I hold a candle
That will not blow out
These flames that you allowed
I hold your horses
So they won’t run and bolt
And break all that you uphold
I hold a feeling
That I cannot explain
That you cannot contain
It burns out screaming
It burns out screaming
I hold your horses
Take turns but please don’t fold
It takes all that you can hold
I hold this feeling
See now the whole host
Sing my heart, let it go
It burns out screaming
It burns out screaming
That stitch in time is fine
To run free all our lives
Knots and ties won’t hold us down
All pumping hearts and cries
Just jump outside the lines
That locked us in our minds
I hold your horses...

At the Track
03:33
|

My heart dreams when I open my eyes
Blinded by invisible trials
My heart bleeds when I close my mind
Chasing hilarious lies
You’ve never placed a bigger bet
Now you’re lost at the track
Of your own device
You wage the weary choices
And the people that you cling to
With stakes so high
As high as expectations fly
They fly high...
You can’t drop the pace now
Or call it off
You run for the finish line
The race never stops
You really ought to keep poised
Why just lash out meaning to?
Riding high on in betweens
Fly on expectations that dive
You can’t drop the pace now
Or call it off
You run for the finish line
The race never stops…

The Weight
03:55
|
|||
I wish I could grow wings
Every time the siren sings
Even when I try to
Taking flight is hard
Every time the siren sings
Walking down that street
It’s not simple when we
Blab and lie so you won’t stay
And pray for wings to get away
The siren sings...
The weight of my world
Is on your shoulders
You didn’t know that
I’d blind and drive you
Out of my mind
Tried to scratch you off
The picture inside my head
Tried to shake you free
Of the hell inside my dread
The siren sings
The weight of my world
Is on your shoulders
You didn’t know that
I’d blind and drive you
Out of my mind
Tried to scrape you off
The picture inside my head
Tried to shake you free
Of the hell inside my dread
Out of my mind...

Talk 'Til Blue
04:25
|
|||
You talk ‘til I’m blue
I don’t know where to turn
To reach for air, to reach for truth
Even if I poured your soul
And made you pay
You’d still find a way to say
The things that sting, that crush
Walk upon tightropes here
May as well hang from them
While I wade waters wide
With knots slick and sly
Lose my way
Stuck in standby
