does it matter
there's another train off the track
a bridge to nothing
perhaps
the shrieking birds
the next attack
pennies on your eyes
buy low, sell high
is that what got us here
and should I even care
bloody sky
fall is coming
dead leaves and tumbleweeds
wake up, your time is running out
fall is coming
dead leaves and tumbleweeds

could I compel you to lie
on the wreckage of our lives
come be my partner in crime
we'll steal our moments together
I've heard the past could always change
what's the use, who's to say
this worn out script, this tired play
doesn't want to know about tomorrow

I'm only passing through
on the way to nowhere
this ghost town
take a walk 'neath
this desert sky
where the wind blows cold on
your alibis
I'm floating in the water clock
I'm waiting
for time to stop
the wheeling birds
the endless sun
the future dream you're running from
your blasted garden
grist for the mill
of your memories
bleeding still
I'm floating in the water clock
I'm waiting
for time to stop

masquerade
not the face you feel inside
I know it's hard sometimes the rain
falling from the ceiling
coming down in waves
drowning in the question
nothing lost
nothing gained
and in the hallways where your heroes
crash and burn
it's a lonely walk
it's your lonely curse
up in the attic
where your ragged people hide
dressed in colors
that rarely see the light
in the mansion of your hope
and your despair
it gets so hard to see a world
where someone cares
and in the hallways where your heroes
crash and burn
it's a lonely walk
it's your lonely curse

wash over me
04:42

standing alone
on the shoreline
black stone
grey sky
pale light shining
the moon looks down
a messenger
our new religion
the waters rise
our cities fill with sand
our tomorrows
fill our hands with broken things
our king of kings
lies buried in the dirt
his cold command
no lullaby, no sweet goodbye
the moon looks down
and laughs
wash over me

open season
across this marble hall
the old gods crumble
cursing as they fall
when I grow up
I want to be someone else
but the wheel grinds
round and round and round
fire one
target locked
fire two
target down
storm is coming
the lights are going out
an easy reason
an easy mark, an easy doubt
in the blue light
of hairspray disinformation
Mr and Mrs America
are making decisions
fire one
target locked
fire two
target down

all those things
04:06

it's always goodbye
I don't even ask
all those things I wanted
to hold on to
what difference does it make
it's always the same
strange fruit
supply and demand
we'll make the world safe
for another madman
it's always the same
I can only laugh
when the skies splash red
and the systems crash
so it's lights out and
it's time to go
hit the switch when you
leave the room
close the door
say goodbye
to your blue sky...

it's over
before it even starts
all your pretty things
falling to the dark
the dogs of war raise their
voices to the sky
they howl they scream the sound
is crashing through our lives
crashing through our doors
marching in time
crashing through the walls we
hide behind
it's over
so raise your glasses high
wrap your feels in satin sheets
surrender with a sigh
don't forget to wave
goodbye

Room 291 Denver, Colorado
