Aviation Goggles

I've got aviation goggles in my top drawer
From a war that happened here on earth
Protect my eyes from the icy winds that are sure to catch my throat
It's just I had a problem with the fact that after all these years I spent on my back
I still find incentive not to come
It had nothing to do with you that's just where I was
I've got aviation goggles in my top drawer
So when I go to war with myself I'll dust them off and hope that they do me well
Come right here you've got to stick with the pack
Because it's not about you it's the familiar facts
You've got to dull it out quick before they actually hear your mind
If life is all we have worth living what's the point in our decisions
Break ourselves to know the feeling
We are not alone
I figured out when I stopped breathing I was the one that you stopped needing
Break myself just to know the feeling, we are not alone

Snake

I had a memory of my face hitting the concrete
I think I was only two. I've got the scar still for proof
It's overwhelming when the time comes for me to hide my feelings
I know I'll probably surrender. I know how much that would kill her
I had a lover
She danced amongst the fog like she was warm blood
She told me I was hers and I said gladly, and that's about the time she knew she had me
She was vicious
A human sized snake, I was constricted
She hurt me that's the truth
But she looked a lot like you
I didn't know you wanted to meet God that bad
I didn't know you wanted to dissolve like that
I didn't think you'd actually go through with it
I realize now that all you had to do was live
Infectious her
She loves me so pure
I know that if she got the chance she'd claim me as hers
And hold me in her arms so tight
She'd never let me change my mind
Infectious her
She loves me so pure
I know that if she got the chance she'd claim me as hers
I'd love to know she held my life
I'll come real soon just not this time
Still she lures me
Her cold blood embrace could just consume me
The next time she tries to constrict me
I won't put up a fight I'll make sure it kills me

Industry Standard

Do whatever it takes
And throw your innocence away
Anything to be on the stage
Do whatever it takes
Throw your beliefs down the drain
We don't want those here why won't you just listen to me
Just make them fall in love
The real you ain't enough
Spill out your artistic blood
You're not beautiful enough
It's just the simple stuff
Make sure you fit in the real you is just too much
Live up to the standards
And part your hair this way
Put make up on so they can't see that you're flawed in any way
I said people have to like you
Oh people have to love you
People have to think you're everything and they could marry you one day
Just make them fall in love
The real you ain't enough
Spill out your artistic blood
You're not beautiful enough
It's just the simple stuff
Make sure you fit in the real you is just too much
We want people to love you when you do good
We want people to hate you when you mess up
We want people to worship the ground you walk on
Just loving you is not enough
We want people to love you when you do good
We want people to hate you when you walk through the door
We want people to kill themselves when you say you won't perform anymore
It's the industry
Just listen to me
Love me

Dead Rose

I think something's changing it uh...man that hit hard
I'm losing sensory feeling but I know what love is it was given to me once and I think it killed me
It's just the small little things
I could clean you up so nicely I could get into your veins
I could make a difference you see
I could be the only thing you need
And she said I'm begging you please
I need I need something that will bring me to my knees
And she said I'm trying to beat the freeze
I need something that can make me forget how to breathe
And you were so pure
I touched the surface
You hardly were there
I know you wanted more
And she said I'm begging you please
I need I need something that will bring me to my knees
And she said I'm trying to beat the freeze
I need something that makes me forget how to be me
Now you're just a dead rose

Yellow

Your heart was built by hands guiding stars together
And my brain was built by hands that tangled up some thread
I thought I'd let the world untangle it
And I thought I'd let you tangle it some more
But I got sick when I thought of you rolling your head
And I got so uncomfortable I thought I'd have to get myself new skin
But I knew it looked good desperately waiting for a cue
You said you can't remember what I look like off the top of your head but all I know is that you surface in blue
But your soul's yellow, that I swear I watched it thoroughly my dear
You probably didn't even know I was I must've kept my distance just to draw you near
Just to draw you near

I Used to Hate Myself
04:00

I've got something that'll make you mad
I'm over all the times we had
I'm over you always complaining about your dad and I'm fine
I've got something that'll piss you off
I stopped avoiding your house on walks
I don't look for your face in every coffee shop and I'm fine
If you asked me if I missed you I'd say never in a million years
I'm probably wrong, I miss you still
If you asked me if I'm doing well I'd let you know that it's more than I could hope
I'm at war with myself
I used to hate myself
I guess I kind of still do
And I spent half the time just blaming all my problems on you
So I got comfortable
It's all I could do
And I got closer than ever to working out the way I should get to you
If you asked me if I missed you I'd say never in a million years
I'm probably wrong, I miss you still
If you asked me if I'm doing well I'd let you know that it's more than I could hope
I'm at war with myself
I used to hate myself
I guess I kind of still do
And I regret all of the time I spent wasting all the love I had on you
I want it back now
It's the right thing to do
But if I see you in the future I won't ask for it or even leave a clue
