It’s cold comfort Taking one on the chin Just to know you care But I wonder Why do you ask where I’ve been If you cannot meet me there A new view is taking hold tonight It’s a free ride Easier to breathe from the moment you're alone Taking back what’s mine The signal’s coming through loud and clear, not a plan in sight It’s a free ride Taking back what’s mine I’m not coming home tonight If I break even Then that’s a good day for me And it’s not like you noticed But I promise It’s nothing more than it seems I just need you to give me Some space to be free It’s not easy It’s just what I need right now A new view is taking hold tonight It’s a free ride Easier to breathe from the moment you're alone Taking back what’s mine The signal’s coming through loud and clear, not a plan in sight It’s a free ride Taking back what’s mine I’m not coming home tonight We can’t run from everything But we can sure keep a different pace So don’t try to take it personal Because this time it’s not, it’s not about you A new view is taking hold tonight It’s a free ride Easier to breathe from the moment you're alone Taking back what’s mine The signal’s coming through loud and clear, not a plan in sight It’s a free ride Taking back what’s mine I’m not coming home tonight

The greatest risk of coming down Is they decide when you’ll be found The shapeless take this reason to see Time stands still, my heart beats fast I blink one time and minutes pass An empty room is staring back at me The faces on the wall are coming alive And they’re out to get me This is the end it seems It’s growing dark as these flames dance Please dear God just one more chance Please just let me take one more breath They don’t want to take me alive They don’t want to take me alive They don’t want to take me alive They don’t want to take me alive The voices come from everywhere Spirits crowd with frozen stares Waiting for their chance to descend Their icy hands steal my breath A growing pain inside my chest A silent prayer is all I have left The faces on the wall are coming alive And they’re out to get me This is the end it seems It’s growing dark as these flames dance Please dear God just one more chance Please just let me take one more breath The faces on the wall are coming alive And they’re out to get me This is the end it seems It’s growing dark as these flames dance Dear God, one more chance Just let me have one more breath They don’t want to take me alive They don’t want to take me alive They don’t want to take me alive They don’t want to take me alive

Caught in the streetlight with nothing to lose I gave up all I had except the excuse But when will I find It’s not out of my hands It’s the moments I stand Don’t call me lost It’s just the way I move In and out of thoughts Don’t bring me down You’re just the one I blame When you’re not around The struggle is constant, it’s all that I see I’m moving all I can except for my feet But when will I learn It’s not the questions I have It’s the answers I grasp I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling Don’t call me lost It’s just the way I move In and out of thoughts Don’t bring me down You’re just the one I blame When you’re not around I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling I’m caught in the moment, the moment is calling Don’t call me lost It’s just the way I move In and out of thoughts Don’t bring me down You’re just the one I blame When you’re not around Don’t call me lost It’s just the way I move In and out of thoughts Don’t bring me down You’re just the one I blame When you’re not around

Specters 04:27
I’ve seen this one before, staring at an open door But I’m waiting every time ‘till I cut me down to size Cause everything she needs, well she wears upon her sleeve, And I’m latched on so dangerously Supersonic, catatonic, whispering: “it’s symbiotic” Hypnotizing hits of lightning, enterprising and melodic Tell my heart to stay, when I face-to-face away Cause I can’t find the words to say Tell me how, tell me now Things will change this time Making up all these specters That haunt your mind Coming down, from the sound Where they promised you life Now you’re close to the edge Because you’ve lost it again Haven’t seen this trick before Wait, where the fuck’s the floor? I’m waking up inside, slide, throw me back in line An underhanded taunt taking everything we want As we look on so hopelessly Through whispers we suggest They are not impressed Reach out to what’s there But they... are… not… So will you take your chance Weigh in or let it out Or would you rather drown in misery? Challenge fate through mistakes Each time they'll make you see One wrong step can mean death for all that you believe So tell me how, tell me now Things will change this time Making up all these specters That haunt your mind Coming down, from the sound Where they promised you life Welcome back to the edge Because you’ve lost it again This time was last time and your crime Goes on and on and on You made this cascade of blind faith For nothing in return This time was last time and your crime Goes on and on and on You made this cascade of blind faith For nothing in return So take your time We are fine And far less blind Because it’s our time (This time was last time and your crime Goes on and on and on You made this cascade of blind faith For nothing in return This time was last time and your crime Goes on and on and on You made this cascade of blind faith For nothing in return) So tell me how, tell me now Things will change this time Making up all these specters That haunt your mind Coming down, from the sound Where they promised you life Now you can’t see the edge Because it’s got you again

Well I’ve got a lot to say And I’m sure that you do too A half-hearted lesson learned From watching faithless from a view I’d simply walk away And you’d keep your secrets too A sleight-of-hand and change of plans To keep me locked inside of you... You’re so cold Hearts of gold And blinded by the most sincere distractions It’s no use No one else Can make beautiful make no sense Makes me feel Like hiding coral beneath the sand Like you do Each time you smile and I melt, then I taste the lie And I’m scared We’ll never fall off the edge of the knife Well I fell to your crusades But I flew the banners too A short-sighted compromise To twist the knife and wonder why... I’m so cold Your heart’s gold And hamstrung by the worst of pure intentions Let’s get used And I'm not scared now As we fall over and over again Each night you become a part of myself But then I'm waking up with somebody else But when you're smiling at the thoughts in my head again And when I'm hanging on by just a thread again But you fake it, you break it and all we are But when we fake it, we make it 'cause No one else Can make beautiful make no sense Makes her feel Like hiding coral beneath the sand Like I do Each time I smile and she melts, then she tastes the lie And she’s scared We’ll never fall off the edge of the knife No one else Can make beautiful make no sense Makes us feel Like hiding coral beneath the sand Like we do Each time we smile and we melt, then we taste the lie And we’re scared We’ll never fall off the edge of the knife
