Tameless World
04:00

I blaze like a wildfire and gaze at the sea. Float through my mind where you'll never find me. Out here on this island so far away, been hypnotized for too long to say. I've seen the wind break it's way inside. I've seen the water come to take my life - And all without will, or ill intent, like the breeze on this lovely day.
Wide, unbound, and tameless world... all your chaos will erase me, and all these moments with you alone... no one else will see.

The Open Landscape
04:38
|

|
Sweet little voice that repeats what "they" say. Airy, like an open landscape fertile for thoughts that have yet to grow, so allow me to plant everything I know.
And every sign says turn away from this sweet little waist and porcelain face so deathly pale, but beaming with light.. to shine on my pathetic life.
I try to stay abstract and intact, but she pulls me to the flame, and silences the words, and leaves me here again.
On through the crowds of repressed inmates, shaking their fists at the thought of escape. You and I could live like the first day we breathed the light and felt the earth shake.

Get Away or Disintegrate
05:58

Never signed onto it, and never agreed. The path we inherited too cruel to believe. Lifted the canopy, uncovered by uncertainty, saw walls of lies as far and high as my eyes could bear to see. Looked behind, the marching line extended to infinity, and very few looking around, but I found you.. and you found me.
Let's step out of line and set out for the sea. Find ourselves an island and hide in the trees. Our days are passing away right as we speak, and I don't need them to understand if you're there with me.
Let's escape it all. Watch them fade in the fog. I must get away... or disintegrate.
I can't take another day of this. It all feels so meaningless. Like advertising, falsified. A life built upon plastic lies. Our thoughts divided; empathy selective as our memories. Distraction while we fall asleep. Block out the screams under our feet. But I can't seem to look away. I'm burning up more every day. I've run out of tolerance for fools who cheer their own tyrants.
Let's step out of line and set out for the sea. Find ourselves an island and hide in the trees. Our days are passing away right as we speak, and I don't need them to understand if you're there with me.
Let's escape it all. Watch them fade in the fog. I must get away... or disintegrate.

And Though We Fade Away
04:34
|

Come in tune. Learn to see what pay won't fix, you can get for free.
Everything that breathes should know this: There's no recourse for wasted moments.
Breathing fast, counting steps is no way to live. I teach myself.
Everything that breathes should know this: We're all crests of a wave with no end.
And though we fade away, we are but the fruit. And though we fade away, I'll still be with you.

Be With Me
04:01
|

|
This world can be cold, but I feel warm with you. And despite what life may have put us through, we could stop right here and just have this moment, 'cause things like us never last too long... And I need this like the ground beneath my feet. Just to know that I still see what's real. And hold you close to me, like gravity.
You know. You know. You know you should be with be.
Sometimes reason gets in the way. Feelings come first and we make words to take their place. Maybe we can't be explained. Maybe this artwork won't fit that frame, but it's beautiful, and it deserves this light. Even just to witness something so, so right. Don't disregard all that you can't describe if it's real. Feel it while we're both alive.
You know you should be with be.

Catacomb
03:52
|

|
I wove an intricate catacomb, riddled with traps and old lost hideaways, and stayed there alone. Convinced of my reasoning, there is no place for me where I belong, so this must be home. Familiar and comforting to shut off from everything that's out of my control.
I don't want to be so closed. Hiding away from the world. Making up reasons to fit the way I've been all along.
If I could go back and show myself all I was missing and figure a way to break through the shell, I might not be standing here wondering where I've been for all these years.
I don't want to be so closed. Hiding away from the world. Making up reasons to fit the way I've been all along.

Duet
04:18

I can't remember the first of my life.
I won't remember the last.
Whatever we'll be in 80 years, is whatever we were in the past.
Only the bones left behind could prove we were real.
Some pictures we took with a smile.
But they'll never know how we feel.
The sounds that you make in my ear when we're close as we ever can get. The rhythm that brought us all here. The times we will never regret.
I hold you close to make up for the years before we were born, and after we're dead.
In the blink of an eye... we'll stand on the stage, and sing our duet.
Squeeze my hand like it's the last time, 'cause someday it will be. I hope like hell that your face is the last thing I see.
