Runnin' On Red
02:10
|

spinning my wheels
and coming clean
i've been running away
since i was seventeen
and now
i'm runnin' on red
aint looking forward
aint looking back
aint nothing behind me
that i need to have
oh boys
i'm runnin' on red
the future will find me
in good time
no sense in chasing it
losing your mind
oh oh
i'm runnin' on red
until the fire spreads
until nothing else exists
i ain't sayin i don't know regret
i have died a thousand minor deaths
for you
i'm runnin' on red
we all come upon folks
with nothing to give
no blood in their heart
no way to live
oh oh
i'm runnin' on red
gonna drive this car
'til the tank runs dry
gonna shoot every star
out of the sky
uh huh
i'm runnin' on red
until the fire spreads
until nothing else exists
until the fire spreads
engulfs all there is

River Of Doubt

I could live forever, in your vision of comfort and ease
but I don't truly believe
it's a fantasy to think, that the sun will never sink
just because you will it into being
the shine of their eyes, came as no surprise
I've always known there were monsters in the wild
ignore them if you like, but there are terrors in the night
that will seek you out and become part of your life
every ghost you've ever wanted,
every heart you've ever haunted
your tears are more poison in the glass
you may drink to drown your sorrows
but they're as buoyant as they're hollow
all your tomorrows are dictated by your past
in the dark we speak no language
on the banks where we languish
in limbo on the river of doubt
the silence that knows no boundaries
I may remain as you found me
a labyrinth that never lets out
..in limbo on the river of doubt
what good does it do, to agonize the state of humanity
it puts nothings towards your happiness or your rent
you burn your angry effigies, in protest of our vanity
solidarity with this growing dissent
but men are men and so are women
and children are beasts without supervision
the world spins out and teeters on it's side
all of recorded history is just a popular song stuck on repeat
you stand there looking for answers in the sky
we are the mold on the sandwich, the ants on an anthill
a train full of bandits soon to derail
I don't know how we've managed, 200,000 years of anguish
we all believe it was our own generation that tipped the scales
in the dark we speak no language
on the banks where we languish
in limbo on the river of doubt
the silence that knows no boundaries
I may remain as you found me
a labyrinth that never lets out
..in limbo on the river of doubt

See You Soon

Paint a portrait of me, ten years removed
Sing a song for me please with some kind of truth
I don't know nothing, so I've nothing to lose
I'll be home Sunday
And I don't know peace, I don't know war
I don't know peace but I've been to war
I don't know nothing, so I've nothing to lose
I'll see you all soon
Write me a poem that explains the feelings I lost
Standing outside your window looking through the glass
who last laughed and who looked back
all has passed
Show me the picture you took of the memory I blocked
Cancel the checks I wrote for all the shit I hawked
I don't know nothing, so I've nothing to lose
I'll be home Sunday
And I don't know peace, I don't know war
I don't know peace but I've been to war
I don't know nothing, so I've nothing to lose
I'll see you all soon

Untrue Story Of You
03:47
|
|||
I've been waiting for someone who doesn't exist
spent most of lifetime staring into the abyss
you can pick up the pieces you can shatter it whole
you can struggle your life away and then struggle some more
the end of the story has already been wrote
myths and the legends were just tales that you told
like a line in your song, every tired refrain
we all become what we pretend to be
the untrue story of...
are you still looking for answers or are you just trying to maintain
do you stand outside stoic, cursing the rain??
I've known many versions of you across the years
most of them were true or at least so they appeared
the end of the story has already been wrote
myths and the legends were just tales that you told
like a line in your song, every tired refrain
we all become what we pretend to be
the untrue story of...
I was dreaming of a ledge and an unknowable god
with both arms outstretched I believed I could fall
the future is uncertain, then again so is the past
for whatever it is you were searching, it has surely slipped passed
