Riding on a coffin that's in bloom With the thought you will come soon Drowning in the air Looking around Hoping that you Will never come down Sitting and waiting Trapped under the ground Wondering if you will ever come across my sound I've been waiting Till the break of dawn Footsteps above A fleeting fawn I can taste the blood inside my mouth She can tell that this is going south If she stays with me She'll never be free But I'm sure that's something That she can see Sitting and waiting Trapped under the ground Wondering if you will ever come across my sound I've been waiting Till the break of dawn Footsteps above A fleeting fawn They are scared of what they do not know I must run deeper in the snow Veins are so dry Can't feel a thing She looks into his eyes And feels a strange sting

Standing in the graveyard There's nothing I can see Looking all around me there's a grave that says Stacy Staring at the tomb as I'm tripped and smack my head A dreary omen that Somebody wants me dead Running all around as the blood drips from my face Clawing at the gate And I cannot leave this place And I'm staring at the tomb I slowly slip away I know that there is someone who can't wait for me to stay Standing in the graveyard I am not alone Looking at the someone this has now become my home I know I'll never leave But that's not to my dismay I know that there is someone who can't wait for me to stay

Spinner 02:29
Even if you're thinking of me I'm sure there's something you can't see Pulling at the end The thread will always bend I wonder what this can mean You know you shouldn't be here I harbor all of you're fears Red, orange, and green They've all lost their sheen Let's spend the night here alone

I'm standing on my own There's nothing you can show It's you that's killing me I'm the one thing you can't be Stuck in this place again Stuck in this place There's nothing I can send Stuck in this place again Stuck in this place This will never end Standing in a cell You can only sit and dwell The lock's so fucking tight Let's break it and take flight Stuck in this place again Stuck in this place There's nothing I can send Stuck in this place again Stuck in this place This will never end

Star Miner 03:34
Don't stand so close To the wall You just might trip and fall Gazing into dreary streets Lights so dim and oh so bleak Watch your step Some just can't take a bet The walls slowly closing in It seems you can never win

The Isolated 03:56
It's twelve thirty in the morning The black light shines on my face I can't see the light in your eyes Take me there it's such a strange place Staring at the hole in the wall Thinking about the night before Mysterious thing that you said to me Her books falling down They settle on the floor I won't be Your diamond dog The isolated Scream the song She can't anyone who Takes your life It's something to do It feels like the world is so small Knowing there is only us Leaving behind everything we knew Good for us Leaving so much lust Feeling the lock on the door Stuck in this place I can't hear a sound Shadow in the light Don't leave me alone Knowing there is no one around I won't be Your diamond dog The isolated Scream the song She can't anyone who Takes your life It's something to do

I'm sitting by sea Watching the days go by Waiting for when the night sky drowns Wading in the water The pit burns so deeply inside I'm always afraid of foreign thought Swimming in the blackened sea There's no light above or life underneath It seems endless every time Far away from here is where I'll never dine Resting in a broken place Bloody red cry fleeting everyday I'm sure that one day my time will come Scraping away waiting for the sun Burning both the lights Fleeting times going by The stinging cold's so comforting Hoping for my own There's nothing left in my bones The aching breaks my symmetry Swimming in the blackened sea There's no light above or life underneath It seems endless every time Far away from here is where I'll never dine Resting in a broken place Bloody red cry fleeting everyday I'm sure that one day my time will come Scraping away waiting for the sun

Brigade 02:43
It's been An introspective night Peer at my reflection in the light You can tell that it's true Warm, running down Like a raven in its flight Wait to see the fire that can bite And I'll surely be blue Brigade It's what I'm looking for Tell me where it is and I'll you there Come close I am nothing like they say Made a lot of debt I can't repay But at least I've got you Brigade It's what I'm looking for Tell me where it is and I'll you there

I feel as if I'm losing my mind Trapped inside this space And I'm losing track of time Gazing at the writing on the wall Wondering if you Will ever ever fall She knows that the stitches aren't tight There's nothing I can do But try and see the light I can see the tearing in the seams Filling her head With complicated dreams Feel as if I'm losing my mind Leaving with my back against the wall I can hear the harlequin chime Knowing there is nothing I can do to stall I can see the flicking flame Watching as the night does by Knowing someone needs the blame I wonder if you can tell me why Looking for a place I can call home Everybody thinks I am helpless on my own I can see the lights across the sky She could tell It was all lies It seems as if I'm grasping at the strings Finding all the things that are meant to be unseen I can feel the shears are cutting close Knowing in the end I'll become a ghost Feel as if I'm losing my mind Leaving with my back against the wall I can hear the harlequin chime Knowing there is nothing I can do to stall I can see the flicking flame Watching as the night does by Knowing someone needs the blame I wonder if you can tell me why Stranger in the abyss It seems that there is something I have missed It has come to take me away I try to speak but there's nothing I can say I discover that my time is out Seeing only staring Faces about Even though I'm leaving with grace No one notices the grin upon my face
