You Belong to Me

There was a time that I convinced myself
That I was weak, for what it's worth
You came along and nursed me back to health
You stuck with me through all my worst
But like all good things must come to an end
We were no strangers to this truth
I couldn't count on you to stay a friend
When your true colors would bleed through
She has a way with getting in my head
And I would (die/cry/fly) when she said
"Hold me, put your arms around me
I can change tonight, you'll see
You belong to me"
I miss the times when I was on my own
And I'm not speaking out of spite
There's something nice about being alone
At least there's no one left to fight
Kiss me, or you're gonna miss me
By the power invested in me
You belong to me
Love me, like the stars above me
When push comes to shove, I'll flee
You belong to me

Feelin' Fine

Rescue me, I cried
When I couldn't make you happy
But I made the first move to escape
Lest you be denied
I would take off running gladly
I couldn't stand when you changed your shape
And after all, it's good to know
It won't be hard to let you go
Now I'm free from your shadow
And I've been feeling fine
Lost in you
Or was I just lost in my surroundings
I welcome these newfound arrangements
I was through
The buzz in my ears still resounding
At least it's better than estrangement
And all these lights are calling to me
I answer, thought I hesitate
I felt my old self passing through me
I'm slipping towards that awkward state

Lose My Way
04:07
|

I've heard that time would heal the damage
But maybe I'm beyond repair
I'm far removed from when I came from one so savage
Broken wings and hollow, faithless prayers
Though I don't mean the words I've spoken
No, I was just blowing off steam
'Cause I had fallen so far down
The worst in me is coming out again
I don't want to lose my way, so I repent
I left you thunderstruck
It seems I'm running out of luck again
I don't want to lose my way, my dearest friend
This temperament is so unlike me
So I cry, "What have I become?"
And now I wait for god to play his hand and smite me
And to my fate, I will succumb
They can't convince me I'm not broken
When I am tearing at the seams
And all this feels far too token
It's not unlike a waking dream

Corrode, Crash, Explode
04:23
|

So it's happened, bound by my word
You're entrapped and begging me
Give you some slack and
Crying that you don't know my anymore
And you're spot on, even the mirror
Has forgotten, my reflection's looking
So rotten, ever since I
Burst out and gave you what for
So I will bid you adieu
I run to find my better half
Don't this feel like deja vu
The words etched on my epitaph:
"Corrode, crash, and explode"
Something's calling, and I admit
I've been stalling, forgive me
For acting appalling, it's no longer
Something I can ignore
Corrode, crash, explode
There's no excuses left to bode
I'll turn myself inside out
My answers don't lie in the stars
We're walking a different route
I heard you crying from afar:
"Corrode, crash, and explode"

Said I
05:42

One by one, we drop like flies
Day is done, so says the skies
So I cry, I am I said
Shall we lie, in broken beds
And nothing is wasted
Least you can say you chased it
So without a care, we put on airs
Keep me out of your affairs, said I
And all the hippie kids are hypocrites
Who wallow in self-righteousness, said I
I am my own, I am alone
One by one, these days do pass
(These days do pass so slow)
To the sun, we go at last
(And so at least we go)
So I cry, I am I said
(I am I said, said I)
Do or die, through hell we tread
(We go through hell to die)
You've got me debased and
I march on through the wastelands
Your time has passed and come so fast
Blame the broken hourglass, said I
Lying snug in graves you dug
Relying on your sacred drugs, said I
I am my own, I am alone
