Tonight I passed a cemetery.

Almost a full moon, but not quite.

A big, beautiful luminescence

The dead's night light.

On the other side of the road was a church.                  

The steeple pierced the sky

I believe it was pointing

To the place I left behind

 

 

step through the darkness
appear on the streets of Old England
somewhere between you and i

stuck in the present day
people believe forward is the right way
change the time

you're a problem
you're a fix
play the game
it'll make you sick

step through the darkness again
re-appear on the streets of Old England
somewhere between you and i
something died
a murder at both ends 

bounce the ball
can't look back
cross the lines
and recover the Jack

stuck in the present day
people believe forward is the right way
change the time
and move their mind
antique America by Ripping it away

follow now
you know what i look like inside
lift your disguise
like fog, you own the streets tonight

words written on a page
will never say what i'm trying to say
my eyes are fixed on the way i want to feel
and you're here now
it's proof that the feeling is real

i'm misunderstood
and underestimated
i'm misunderstood
misunderstood

you cant figure me out
well im a common mistake, half awake,
all the time illusionist
i'm in the middle of hate
a twist of fate
bottled confustion with an explosive risk

its simple.

tomorrow i'll see you
with more lifelines on your arm
and i'll know that it's I, with a dramatic obsession,
that led you to this harm

i see this so physical
and i'll hurt for you
i'm a damaged piece of mind
i dont think i'm good for you

you're misuderstood
and underestimated
you're misunderstood
misunderstood

you cant figure me out
a common mistake, half awake,
all the time illusionist
i'm in the middle of hate
a twist of fate
bottled confustion with an explosive risk

its simple.

what's in an apology?
what's in a promise?
what has a part of me?
if you dont, well what's all this?

its simple.

let my voice blend into your music
im so appologetic
im sorry.

 

silver bullets cross my mind
thinking of you in a timeline
and ill always wonder why

silver bullets cross my mind
something, just something
showed in your eyes

an angel that knows no better
you happen to be half fallen
at the sound of thought

remain undecided
as you decide what to do
base your decision on distractions
now its harder to choose
but you do

go the wrong way
its your right way for now
you're a bullet of memories
i just cant allow

everything has meaning
hung back on the rifles of reason
silver bullets slide through my mind

sore eyes
dark in the dirt
buried in heart

believe mine
horrified by atmosphere
alone in the air

walk in the light
but im already there

beside myself
beside you
beside something i never knew

taste the sound
moist in its waves
unconditional
between love & hate

a new shoreline to begin my fate

still dark
but a sandy color
quick-sinking
with a lighter cover

my spirit washed away
somewhere between now and yesterday

light like a feather
shy like a dove
peirce throught the wind
and uncover my love

i am forever yours
forever yours

hollowed
hear the echoes fall through me
haunted
by the others inside me

i am not a shell
use me as a home
outgrow me
then leave me all alone

the beach, water, quicksand and dirt
add the wind, the waves, shells, they hurt

i am the equation of feeling
i am the object of emotion
i am what you make of me
a ship lost under the ocean

another silver bullet slides through my mind

you were a test
And I think I failed it
Because this is what happened

A second guess
To ease my broken head
Now look how it's deepened

Swung open your door
To let me in, let me in
Well just enough, just enough
To get my foot in

I'm hanging over your mantel
I am just a head, just a head
But I know, oh I know
It must only be in my head

Nothing hurts
Like the things you don't do
It's a mess
And I don't know what to do
Its best
To just
Wait it out
I guess

You don't know what I think
What I am, what I feel, what I say
You don't know how well I know you
Because you never gave me the time of day

A short summer
And then the winter was cold
Oh just to let you know
The 12 different you's are getting old

I almost know all of them by now

So
I don't know
Much
Way too much
For
The feelings I'm trying to ignore
And snow is on it's way
Whenever the summer is just around the corner

Just listen
Nothing's hidden
Read the lines
I have set inside my eyes
I wish you read them before you fell
8 is my number
And the number of months I've
Set those lines parallel

Hey stay a while
I don't know
But just don't go

Nothing hurts
like the things you don't do

Talk to me

I'm having a little bit of trouble
Killing this thought of
You
A word so overused
We don't even know it

Nothing hurts
Like the things you don't do
