Sheltered Protests

I hear it's jagged
Unfair out there
Pulled wool over your eyes
Percussive protests
Sheltered air
You so upset after all the lies
Don't think it's a fault of mine
So I've got to set it right
I've got to make it right
I fit in all your shoes
Living through a screen
Shouting through screen

carelessly bagged up figures
cer vit and now soon to be maimed
she's got the surplus liquor
made for the task to deaden the frame
i'm now up for the task
so please just let me concentrate
so take your cer vit figures
i'll need to clear them out
so take your cer vit figures
i'd use to buy you out
now please just let me concentrate
so please just let me concentrate
i'm pulling at the embers to stifle a flame
exposing the naked air and reviving it again
i didn't need you
to come down and pad out the ride
you see
i'm madly inclined
i'm pulling out the big guns to stomple a fly
destroying the freight train and burning our supplies
i didn't need you
to come down and pad out the ride
you see
i'm madly inclined
i'm now up for the task
now please, please just let me concentrate
just let me concentrate

Another day, another load of shit to deal with
Or rather, ignore until it goes away
Well, I hear she's fucking you
I'm sure you both are swell
That's fucking great to hear about
I'm doing fucking great as well
Maybe this apathy
Is borderline insanity
What the hell is wrong with me?
Where's your creativity?
Repeat
At least it's better better than daytime TV
I change the channel every once in a while
To find another prominent asshole
Living high and mighty
I think it's like just another shit
I don't feel it's real

Where are we going now?
Hopefully its back somehow
I've been pulling teeth
This line doesn't matter
Try until I throw myself away
Climb until I fall right off the face
This time it's getting better every day
I lie, but I'll blame you anyway
So, if our time is running out
I'll tell you all to pause the count
Control, alt, delete
It still doesn't matter

to rant about
i need more money i need less hours
i need more money i need less hours
i need more money i need less hours
i need more money, i need you to be silent

you've been stressing about your job far too much
you'll rant about
i need more money i need less hours
i need more money i need less hours
i need more money i need less hours
i need more money, i need you to be silent

Wind

It struck a chord when I was thirteen
And it shivered all of my bones
Clutching to reality
But the voices called it home
It shouldn't matter what this means
But I'll hate it in the end
And I'll hate the way it pulls me back
Each time we reach amends
I don't need your help
Wind down
It's fine now
It's always been alright
It's never on my mind
Seven times I fell into
A place darker than this
It's not like it was back then
But I don't know what this is
And I think it's comfortable here
Right in my perfect shell
No one needs to talk to me
And I won't speak as well
I don't need your help
Wind down
It's fine now
It's always been alright
It's never on my mind
Wind down
It's fine now
It's never been alright
It's always on my mind

I've slept these days away
Lives chased through paintings
Time isn't anything
Lies about better dreams
You and me
Remember when we were young enough
I remember back to you
Proven now, I'm deaf and dumb
A party made for two
Let's go 'til the end
'Til they never want to hear from us again
Let's go to the bottom
Someday we'll rot in pictures beyond the picket fence
Calm has kept the quiet away
Falls we exaggerate
Have come to pass
Let's go 'til the end
'Til they never want to hear from us again
Let's go to the bottom
Someday we'll rot in pictures beyond the picket fence

sorry if i ever believed your bringing trifles to the forefront of a war
when you're paralyzed and painfully screaming for a surgeon who was taken long before
pray to god this quiet lasts, we go
because 'therefore', 'however', 'notwithstanding' won't begin to cover this ongoing report
when you're so broken and old, you'll wonder
why you've never taken this to court
pray to god this quiet lasts, we go

dread the day that you come to find
you know your place in the world
it's been steadily pushing you out
since the dawn of time
insistent banging on the door
let's you know that they're here
or have they been causing that ruckus
since before you ever moved in
quiet, quiet
quiet, quiet
bent backwards and smoldering
the door blows off its hinge
the quiet place that you found yourself
never existed
quiet, quiet
quiet, quiet
the quiet place that you found yourself
never existed

so they say
love's not a war
but i've been fighting off you for years
if words are art
art is a weapon
and my hands are tied
to the wheel of my own life
ive been tired of waiting for a brand new view of life
so they say
it's all a joke
so they say
i'll laugh at my own jokes

You and me
A long time ago
Now, I can see
Just how the story goes
I'll never let it go
The void wore the glue upon the seal
The voices were much calmer in the rain
Seven years ago it seemed so real
Seven times before I faced that day
You and me
A long time ago
Now, I can see
Just how the story goes
I'll never let it go
Thought I knew the line between what's fiction
Said I get over it all one day
Seven days ago we burned in pictures
Seven times before I faced that day
You and me
A long time ago
Now, I can see
Just how the story goes
I'll never let it go

you know your place
but do you know your name
or is it lost with time
you feel your failures taunting you
hopefully for the last time
you know your weight
it's hanging off your bones
it brings you close to god
you feel your failures taunting you
hopefully we'll all comply
you'll save
your life
tonight
alegria
oh joy

i'm at a loss to describe this deceit
let's rack our minds and design a darker street
cause the one you're going through
karmically won't do
tell me that you'll never feel no more
i'm far too lost to describe
if you don't mind, i'll try to find another way
cause the one you're going through
karmically won't do
let's redefine what you think to be true
no more lies, no more lies, just less you
i'll destroy what you think is you
and leave what's left behind

I meant to torch this to the ground
I meant to never turn back
I meant to live on fooling you
Now I'm eating all of that
I truly miss you not around
I thought we were finished act
You were the victim, you were betrayed
This perfect world was never fact
I'll show myself the door
And lie me down on the tracks
Can you please pardon my thoughts?
And can you tell me just go?
I promise I will let you down
I truly wish you all the best
