A broken gaze from the low candle light casting your shadow against the relief with charcoal and pieces of clay I drew the perfect portrait of you that way when you leave a piece of you will stay right here with me with charcoal and pieces of clay I drew the perfect portrait of you that way when you leave a piece will be right here with me we stalled for hours I recall it like it was yesterday I reach for your face but all I can reach is the space you once stood your portrait remains engrained in my eyes looks like hers would never tell a lie let's not grow old, let's just stay here in time I know I've seen this before but I'm still wanting it more I'm glad I get to see you when I'm dreaming When I wake you're already gone and I'm still here left alone I'm glad to see you right here in this picture we stalled for hours I recall it like it was yesterday I reach for your face but all I can reach is the space you once stood your portrait remains engrained in my eyes looks like hers would never tell a lie let's not grow old, let's just stay here in time let's just stay here in time your features from this portrait I've made your details I can no longer save let's just stay here in time we stalled for hours I recall it like it was yesterday I reach for your face but all I can reach is the space you once stood your portrait remains engrained in my eyes looks like hers would never tell a lie let's not grow old, let's just stay here in time

don't worry friend, you'll never be alone just turn it up, the watts will lift my spirits oh we are the souls, I swear to god we thrive yeah we are the young hearts that die tonight we are the echoes of an era ride it hard 'til our knuckles break cue the grand finale we'll all be feeling this tomorrow so throw me west into the ocean or east into the streets I'll find myself a little warmth to keep me going in the tides, in the dark is better than this cold which will only turn us all to stone journey living times hearts brothers blood my skin has been worn, but it's much too thick to break I always come back swinging it's not the way I was raised it's the way I was born the way I was born like a tank I won't die so listen, don't tell me this won't go I'll never die I'll never die we'll all be feeling this tomorrow so throw me west into the ocean or east into the streets I'll find myself a little warmth to keep me going in the tides, in the dark is better than this cold which will only turn us all to stone journey living times hearts brothers blood we'll meet up soon my friend, the night will save me with no destination, the street lamps will lead the way ship off this corpse when I am through and then we will all take the dive

As it is revealed I still sit in question belittling myself every chance I get only to be swept up in it all after we've met signing up was just the start arriving here was just the beginning arriving here was just the beginning I should have known right from the start that things would be different should have known right from the start that things would be better now it's an open ocean and we'll all drown a chaotic turn of events you're not around, it's all in my head but now I'm hooked like the fool I can be and now I'm hooked so what? now I'm hooked like the fool I am Now at the end I'm still asking questions I should have known right from the start It's now or never.

All Creation 04:15
that's all, these arms can't carry this head up high a fragile grain, to know that this heart is still waiting lacerate like fire seal the wounds with steel wire these wings unweave and unfold night air burns the skin wasn't meant wasn't meant for winter's wind hold on no warmth here from the sun so hold on there's no warmth here from the sun we heard it live all our eyes witness to all these people all falling from the sky and I couldn't wait to see him pay for his sins and that wrath will surely come for him we took the dive, we'll hit the ocean floor by night we held our breath stayed until we reached the end this home there's hope.. That's all our minds are made Seal the wounds with steal wire That's all our minds are made Seal the wounds with steal wire There is hope this home there's hope, there's hope this home there's hope, there's hope

the sky, the glass on the street everyone, 1, 2, 3 and tonight, the glass on the street everyone, 1, 2, 3 go we still struggled to find ourselves and struggled to uncover will a thousand volts revive us both? sky claim these battered bones I will now take off this blindfold finally see where we are going one less chance there's nothing more for me get me out alive save my soul save my soul, save my soul one more time it's what it is, but at the time it was an endless ride I'm weightless, and taking flight carry the world over my shoulders as best I could exceeding speeds, she's on the threshold looking in I pass right by and now I lye here trying to reason why (I will now) I will now lift the blindfold which has covered my eyes and I'll gaze into the sun 'til I begin to see the ashes from my shadow was the burning of my soul now I'll take off the blindfold which blankets my eyes and I will gaze into the sun to see the ashes of my shadow it's what it is, but at the time it was an endless ride I'm weightless, and taking flight carry the world over my shoulders as best I could exceeding speeds, she's on the threshold looking in I pass right by and now I lye here trying to reason why as the ticking clock had stopped at 10:00 and I had closed my eyes I know the sound was only keeping me from you through smoke and mirrors I will never reach the end though I had tried the door was open, you were out of sight a dead connection, all I want to do is call her remember the sound, sound of something real and once again we have changed everything put the pieces back to make a whole one more chance to right the wrongs

you are such a hypocrite it's shit like this that keeps me up nights you think you know everything you think you're on top it's all your fault we're in this mess disbelief is my only reaction an absolute destruction of trust depreciation, intimidation, lust I know you, I know your secrets I know your ambitions I know you, your troubles I know your truths (HEY HEY HEY) I guess it's true what they say (HEY HEY HEY) if you want something done right then do it yourself he'll tear them all down until there's no one left as we challenge the sun as we burn out like stars get your head straight c'mon do what you got to do man get your head straight you've grown so blind too blind to see it's all in your actions not up to me not up for discussion it's not up for reason not just a distraction don't hold your breath can't shake this feeling don't lose your head can't find a solution I won't help you out this time around it keeps on running through my head I won't keep trying to save you I wont help you this time around, liar why are you the only one? you're deceitful just another point of your idiocy you'll turn us both to ghosts I swear you'll turn us both to ghosts I'll say this is the longest day of the year this is the longest day of the year

cause in circles we run the distance was just but we are waiting around for something that would never come to us cause our hands grew tired wearing thin wearing thin and by now you should know by now the very roots we've made embed us in the ground the ground we lay believe me dear I did not mean to break your heart but these broken bones have all but fell apart I've seen the biggest buildings fall now it's up to me to be stronger than ever I know by now your end is near well you better run you better run for cover time to resign from this position now here we are the two of us standing face to face one hand on your throne and one hand on your throat your ship has run its course the horizon will be the sign you better watch your step or you will be left behind you better watch your step or you will be left behind you better watch your step or you will be left behind believe me dear I did not mean to break your heart but these broken bones have all but fell apart believe me dear I did not mean to break your heart but you will be left here bleeding from your eyes it's like trying to fight for air tied to anchors drift to shore somewhere I can keep on breathing in this water As far as we've gone, we'll never get back there
