Heavier the Crown

He’s walking in the sky with a heavy gauge
So much for war
So much for war
Now stepping down to you just to deliver
What you asked for
To even the score some more
Some more
And these people standing round, do the even care?
What he will do
If he wants to
You’re marking down the time, would you get away
If I asked you to
What he would do
To you, would you?
Funny how the time goes when you start
Building up the walls around your heart
Holding all the aces weighs you down
Heavier the crown
To save the day
Will only be a mistake
Funny how the time goes when you start
Building up the walls around your heart
Holding all the aces weighs you down
Heavier the crown
Funny how you make it standing up
With all the things you end up making up
Holding all the aces, play it down
Heavier the crown

I must have been sleeping
When you decided to give in
And render yourself something
Plastic you must be more lost than I am
You hold on to it so tight that you already lost it
It doesn't matter how many things you have
Or how many you blame
For every badge you wear
You still have the same name
You hold onto it so tight that you already lost it
I must have been sleeping

Neon Distraction

I will keep the wolves at bay
If you keep the black dog from my shoulder
I will work all day and night
And try not to get any older
I will not act wounded
Despite all my scars
If you pretend not to notice them
Glowing in the dark
In my neon distraction, city lights
I won't miss the ocean if you hold me tight
In my neon distraction, city lights
I can feel the sea breeze if you hold me tight
I will keep the smog out of my lungs
If you kiss me with the salty air
I will keep the black clouds from my eyes
If you bring me the sunshine
In my neon distraction, city lights
I won't miss the ocean if you hold me tight
In my neon distraction, city lights
I can feel the sea breeze if you hold me tight
Hold me.

End of the Night

Hand shakes, outbreaks
Feels like all I take
You’re one to make
Me feel so straight
And moving too late
Deep breaths, my guess
Has desired effects
But nothing less
Would pass the test
Lead you to rest
Besides, I’ve already tried
To close my eyes to all that would lead me to size
Up all advice and contrary ties
End of the night
The end of the night
Comes on despite
All we would fight
The scene plays too loud
Strangely sound
Strange days have made
Us close and put paid
Besides, we’ve already tried
To close our eyes to all that would lead us to size
Up all advice and contrary ties
End of the night
The end of the night
Comes on despite
All we would fight

I Used to be Beautiful

Wide awake and I'm dreaming
Existentialist
And I, used to have a reflection
But now I don't exist
And for, all the things you told
Some of it was true
That I used to be beautiful
Now I am just you
Excuse me while I talk a while
I need to hear my voice
Not echoing inside my head
But rolling from my mouth
I've minced my words and
I've chewed my heel and
Now I bite my tongue
For I used to be innocent
Now I am just young
Through temptation and desire
To hide what I've become
The road has narrowed and
despair has become
my only one.
For all the things I told myself
None of it was true
like I used to be beautiful
Now I am just you

No Excuses

I saw the lights go out
On the way down
I heard them screaming out
On the way down
No point now
No excuses
No point now
No excuses
I saw the latter day
I saw it somewhere
Too much too hard too late
Oh well
No point now
No excuses
No point now
No excuses
