A little more than I wanted right now
But I have enough time on my hands
Got to pretend that I’m on it like I’m
Just looking for someone who understands
I’m working on
Something stronger
Some monumental truth
I can show it to you soon
A little piece of the puzzle’s missing
But I got the clues to solve the rest
A little hole where the fever kicks in
I can never replace it but I’ll do my best
I’m working on something stronger
Some monumental truth I can show it to you
Soon, I’m working on
Some monumental truth I can show it to you
A little worse than I’m feeling right now
All it takes to end another night
A little better in a little while
Then maybe I can stand to try
I’m working on something stronger
Some monumental truth I can show it to you
Soon, I’m working on
Some monumental truth I can show it to show it to you

Colors hover over me
As I should be trying to sleep
I always keep to one side of the bed
Counting the washes of blue and red
And I've seen the fall
The last of the pavement
Is gone and the weeds have
Covered it all
Still tall as a city
But now it's just hidden in me
I watch tenderly
As the creature turns in its sleep
I hear it, I see it, I understand
I birthed it and hated it, now I'm taking its hand
And I'll miss the fears
They'll be gone by tomorrow
The shadows will follow
In a couple of years
The cracks will have healed
The memory sealed in me

Ellen, I am out tonight
37 Fahrenheit
There’s open windows in my mind
I know I should apologize for
Ellen, do you remember when
It snowed on Halloween?
You cried cause you got nothing
And I said we don’t need anything
We were kids some other time
The playground or the summertime
October was another life cause
We were never kids that night and
I keep remembering
More than was really happening
I know you don’t need anything from me,
you don’t need anything
Why would I be lying to you?
I am trying, too
I am trying
Why would I be lying to you?
I swear it’s true
And I’m leaving soon
Ellen, do you remember when
I broke your arm in a pillow fight
I think of it when I sleep at night
Same bed where I made you cry
Ellen, do you remember when
It flashed before your eyes
we would end up here someday and
I might tell the truth this time
I wish I didn’t lie to you
But it’s easy to
It’s so easy
I wish I didn’t lie to you
But it’s easy to
It’s so easy
I wish I didn’t lie to you
But it’s easy to
It’s so easy
I wish I didn’t lie to you
I swear it’s true
And I’m leaving

I am dreaming
of this presence
Keeping with me
I don’t need a friend, I’ll only break it
I don’t need a friend, I’ll only break it
I am touching
I have new fingers
I keep it with me
I hold it all, I think I can take it
I hold it all, I think I can take it
I can’t make it
Out tonight, I don’t know why
This is happening
Again
Again
I tried to shake it
Actually I tried to stop
the deepening
But there’s
No end
No end
I am speeding
Not of anger
Try to find out
If my body breaks the more I risk it
If my body breaks the more I risk it
I am watching
The things that make me
Lose your attention cause
If I am alone my body starts breaking
If I am alone my body starts breaking
I can’t make it
Back tonight, I don’t know why
But this is happening
Again
Again
I’m starting to love you
Actually I start to need
The way you sing
In my head
In my head
Please don’t leave me
Please don’t leave me
Empty-handed
When you leave me
I’m left hanging
When you leave me
Empty-handed
Please don’t leave me
I’m left hanging
When you leave me
Empty-handed
I don’t need a friend it’ll only break me
