Track Name: Numb
Gut feeling, I'm lying on my floor
And as you told me I should have cared a little more
I'm no saint, but I'm no sinner
Your eyes stare and mine grow thinner
Old friend, it's torture you left on me
And in your absence, oblique uncertainty
As I wallow in my sorrow, I'll press on into tomorrow

It takes numb to feel normal, it's normal to feel numb
Marinate in my bloodstream and soak until I'm done
Yes, I'm drowning out the few thoughts I left on you.

When broken it's your warmth that we seek
And that token of your love, we hit our peak
Give me something good dear, I'm becoming such a fool here

It takes numb to feel normal, it's normal to feel numb
Marinate in bloodstream and soak until I'm done
Yes, I'm drowning out the few thoughts I left on you.

Why can't you understand I lost myself today?
Why can't you understand I know no other way?
And in the dark I found your hand, but I lost myself

It takes numb to feel normal, it's normal to feel numb
Marinate in my bloodstream and soak until I'm dumb
Yes, I'm drowning out the few thoughts I left on you
Track Name: Doctor
Thread by thread, I pull apart my shelter, push ahead
But when I find just what I’m looking for,
I’m gonna need a friend, an open door

To be naive, to let it pass me by, and to relieve
Myself of everything in front of me.
To neglect responsibility

I’m gonna call on somebody, in a cry or plea
Could be something discovered in reality
I couldn’t tell ya, it hits us in different ways

I know we’re young but I feel so old
Get me the doctor, call me the doctor
One by one we become undone
Get me the doctor, call me the doctor

Now we’re here, but all we want to do is dissapear
And that thread that you were walking on
Has now withered in your years withdrawn
You’re gonna call on somebody, in a cry or plea
Could be something discovered, in reality, well
I couldn’t tell ya, it hits us in different ways

I know we’re young but I feel so old
Get me the doctor, call me the doctor
One by one we become undone
Get me the doctor, call me the doctor

Oh, the days they pass me by
I sit still but I don’t know why
And in the night, I’ll rise
I’ll never go, so I'll never know

I know we’re young but I feel so old
Get me the doctor, call me the doctor
One by one we become undone
Get me the doctor, call me the doctor
Track Name: Catch You On My Way Out
Once again you wait, while I get my head on straight
Again I missed your call
And in the wake of this evening, I just can't shake this feeling
That I'm farther from you now
So my knees touch the floor, I feel something never felt before
My beliefs got in my way

I got time, it's all I need
It's been a while but you do concede
In a modern world, you're a different kind
With every step I take you fall behind

And I'll catch you on my way out,
I'll catch you on my way out of town

I'm always running late, so failed to clear my slate
And I pack my bags this fall
And do I show I care? Nah, I put my feet down anywhere
Nineteen years, but I got nowhere to be

I got time, it's all I need
It's been a while but you do concede
In a modern world, you're a different kind
With every step I take you fall behind

And I'll catch you on my way out,
I'll catch you on my way out of town

In the doorway, split in two
Hear my name, but it's hurting you
Track Name: In The Summer
Oh I’ve been down this road for far too long,
and now these tired bones refuse to walk, to carry on
Loosen your grip and let the noise
Of these notes become your voice.
The shackles of your greed
Will rust away, they will recede

We were fine then we didn’t mind back then
In the summer making our own plans.

Open your hand, admit you see,
and with time you’ll understand me.
It’s not right, these games we play
I want it all and you hide away

We were fine then, we didn’t mind back then
In the summer making our own plans.

On we walk down the block to find it,
but we ain’t gonna find it, not anymore.
Passing windows, look at the reflection
We walk in no particular direction anymore, not anymore.
Track Name: Lying Through Our Teeth
Starry eyed but not unaware
A poor soul to fool
Dodging streetlights, late nights, all nights
Chasing after you

You’re all ears, but where are your eyes?
The kids won’t rest to your surprise
You won’t learn what you don’t understand
Slow them down but that’s all

Here we sit now lying through our teeth
In the middle of what appears to be
Something sacred, we can hardly teach
And we just can’t compete

We’re the future, we are the cure
A morsel of fear
Dodging streetlights, late nights, all nights
A product of you

Here we sit now lying through our teeth
In the middle of what appears to be
Something sacred, we can hardly teach
And we just can’t compete
Track Name: Tranquilize
I don’t want to know, I’ll just let it play out.
See how this goes with time.
We’d see who we become, we may not like it,
but that’s just all we’d know.
You say your time here’s short,
and I can understand your hurry.
You know I try hard, I really try hard,
but still you’re letting go.
So, I guess that’s all we know.

Tranquilize my tiger eyes
Tranquilize until the day we die.

The words fell slowly from their lips,
but quickly melted me.
Reluctance in my chest, my eyes refuse to rest.
Through the door you fade from view.
Bleak in the bone, grim at the gut.
Still my blood flows.
But your voice it follows me,
a friendly haunt, you see.
Show me all you know.
Through the door I let you go.

Tranquilize my tiger eyes
Tranquilize until the day we die.

There’s something in the air, it’s undefined.
A common killer’s stare we fall in line.
Never thought you were the type, you let me down

Tranquilize my tiger eyes
Tranquilize until the day we die.
Track Name: Pockets
My town, empty like my pockets
I chase your shadow for a while
But I can’t crack a smile
Ghost town, living in this small town
Towered by the city lights
Oh on these lonely nights.

Oh my friend It’s been long
No need to pretend
You’re just one step ahead
And I’m hot on your trail
But then you run, run, run from me

Your voice, muffled in a phone call
There’s laughter in the background
And it’s all around
So take me, take me to the concrete
Show me to the angels, the industry

Oh my friend It’s been long
No need to pretend
You’re just one step ahead
And I’m hot on your trail
But then you run, run, run from me
Track Name: Killing Me
You can take my vision but I still see
Yeah you make one wrong decision
And we all will bleed
Hiding behind you words
And it dawned on me
There’s a part of us in our faults
We’d all like to keep

It’s one thing if you’re still wrong
It’s another to mistake
Don’t pretend to know it all
That’s just another thing to fake
But you can take my freedoms
And justify each slip
It’s a never ending cycle
I can’t pause to get a grip

Oh you’re killing me honestly
And in all your age you will see
That I won’t go from where you came
Oh you’re killing me and
I don’t feel the pain

You can take my vision but I still see
Yeah you make one wrong decision
And we all will bleed
Hiding behind you words
And it dawned on me
There’s a part of us in our faults
We’d all like to keep

Oh you’re killing me honestly
And in all your age you will see
That I won’t go from where you came
Oh you’re killing me and
I don’t feel the pain

Can’t you see what you do to me?
My visions blurred
I overheard you

Oh you’re killing me
Yeah, just killing me

Oh you’re killing me honestly
And in all your age you will see
That I won’t go from where you came
And i always knew, I wouldn’t feel the pain
I wouldn’t feel the pain
Track Name: Bring The Rain
The days may change
With the length of your hair
And the clothes that you wear
But you’re still some kid
And you're farther from home than ever before

You grow tired
In your search for salvation
A hunt for your place in this world you know
It birthed you, it molds you
It tears you apart

It’s out, out, out with the old
And it’s in with the new
We want back, back, back to the old
Just a lonely few singing

“Bring the rain to my front door
Bring a thundering sky
Tame the fires that burn the walls
Of a life that waves goodbye”

The hours defy me
The weeks are drawn on
As they fit to a song
Oh and the frustration,
The cause within sight,
My teeth chip as I bite.

It’s out, out, out with the old
And it’s in with the new
We want back, back, back to the old
Just a lonely few singing

“Bring the rain to my front door
Bring a thundering sky
Tame the fires that burn the walls
Of a life that waves goodbye”

What have I become?
Just another one away from home
Something takes my hand
But my feet won’t walk along
New hopes tower us
And our eyes were doors
But they walked right through
Now it’s haunting us
In the only home we’ve known

Bring the rain to my front door
Bring a thundering sky
Tame the fires that burn the walls
Of a life that waves goodbye
Track Name: Take It Out
This feeling’s okay, yeah it’s alright
But it could be better man
I don’t mean to fight
Still we do, and I don’t know why

You take it out
You take it out
You take it out on me

You’re innocent eyes,
So quickly devised
A blanket of wrongs
And a series of lies,
But I digress
How’s loneliness?

You take it out
You take it out
You take it out on me

You need me but you don’t know
Give me a piece of that gold in your head
We’re broken, but we don’t know
Left on our own in this march to the end

You take it out
You take it out
You take it out on me
