Well of my sadness, do not overflow
Don't let the waters of your youth betray you
You have grown
Dam of my conscience do not show
Streams and drips of threatened exposure
Hold fast
The thing you guard is a sacred shame
Could come bursting through
At last
And you will drown in your pile on the floor
In knee deep water so close to the shore
A flood of your making, disposition to match
All it took was the Earth's quaking to open up the hatch
Endless as a nightmare and fast as other dreams
the walls give way to the drips and the streams
Well of my sadness, do not overflow
Don't let the waters of your youth betray you
You have grown
You have grown

Time don’t pass the way you which it would
We go slow through the bad and blink through the good
Life floods over filling with future doubts
And we can’t tell what we could live with or without
So we sit so still that our skin begins to shift
and I can’t tell if it’s a curse or a gift
I wonder where you are
As I do not feel the pain
I don’t know how I’ll appear to you
I never look the same
I just walk on through your mind
Like evaporated rain
Look at me and you’ll see
Every version there’s ever bee of you
And I sort of get the feeling that you think
That I could look right through
But I don’t know what is real or what is right
So I’ll lay in this moment just to feel alive
And I wonder where you are
As I do not feel the pain
I don’t know how I’ll appear to you
I never look the same
Born to my mother she knew it wasn’t long
‘Til I shifted so fast that I finally belonged
And I never felt peace in the moment
Now I got no peace at all
I’m restless and wanderin’ I’m crying out
But you hardly ever hear the call
And I wonder where you are
As I’m crying out your name
I don’t know how I’ll appear to you
I never look the same
I just walk on through your mind
Like evaporated rain

Look into me all the way through
Look into me to get to you
Shapes in my eyes which give way to yours
Don’t look away; we’ve never gone this long before
Stare into my mind
As it creates you
Look past me at the reflection
Of you
Each tiny line that your life has formed
Observed through me
Every path of light in your eyes
As you hold the gaze steady
The universe caught in an infinite loop of our sight
Long enough to see the truth, we’d see the lights in each other’s eyes
Stare into my mind
As it creates you
Look past me at the horizon
Of you
Look into me all the way through
Look into me to get to you
Color that surrounds the darkest part of you
Blurs all around us, everything is you

Walk on by her, she’ll flinch
Too many toes been walked on
Every swing of an arm,
She ducks it to move on… move on… move on
What if you were wrong
For once, for once
Shattered glass on the floor
All my cash in a drawer
So I gave it to you
Like a thousand times before
Let the carcinogens burn
Watch her stomach unchurn
Feel the linger set in
“The fuck is she wantin’?”
Left to wonder, left to wonder
What if you were wrong
For once, for once
Didn’t mean to let you think
This was happening
Let it go to far again
Show her off to all your friends
All her fault every time
She tried to find an end
But what if you were wrong
All along, All along
What if you were wrong
For once, For once, For once

Saw you on the day you arrived
Outskirts of town you asked us for a ride
Couldn’t hide the stars in your eyes
That’s when I knew, drew my gun
That you, you were, an alien
Ya you, you were, an alien
So many questions about the human race
Our existence, how could it matter in such a matter-less place?
Call us out, hear the chatter of human doubt
Will he kill us all? Have we hit a wall?
Oh alien, knew you were real all along
Oh alien, please don’t kill us, kill us all
Shot in the back I look to you
Stars in your eyes, no surprise, what you had to do
Oh alien, knew it was you all along
Alien, what have you done
And I wonder what you’ll do with the rest of them
Save them from themselves, think you’re their alien friend
But as I fade to black, I remain so unsure
Alien, I ask, What was I living for?
Oh alien, knew you were real all along
Oh alien, please don't kill the rest of them

What a wretched plan, to invest in a man
Who needs you to stand up on his own two feet
Got my babies and me, don’t need all of the sweets
Meet our own fucking needs
Snap 1,2,3
And we’ll float you away on a cloud you’ve never seen
Let you in for a peek at the inside of your dreams
But you won’t get past these three; nowhere to grow but up
We’re the ones who didn’t have time to give a fuck
And I’m basing all the thoughts of the things that you think you’re not
On the fact that you might need a little bit of what we got
But what the fuck am I talking about,
Let us breath you in with an open mouth
Got my babies and me, don’t need all of the sweets
Meet our own fucking needs
Snap 1,2,3
And we’ll float you away on a cloud you’ve never seen
Let you in for a peek and then we’ll take back everything
Cuz you don’t know what you need, and you’re not gonna find it in me
I only need these three, I only need these three
And you can get in on that if you stop being whack
Don’t talk at my back don’t tug at the strap
Don’t gnaw at the strings cuz they will snap
And I’ll have my babies and me, Won’t need all of the sweets
Meet our own fucking needs snap 1,2,3
Rude with my ladies, bebes gotta be shady
Move with my kitty cuz we own this fucking city
Then we’ll disappear in a puff, cuz it’ll never be enough
You’ve seen the light and you won’t give up
On the ones who couldn’t give a fuck

Why when you fear no death,
Why does it continue to rain?
It’s been a valiant effort to forget
The shame of your everyday pain
I often feel the best part of myself
is an ability to see my worst
And I often feel that if I know myself, through the weight of my life,
it’s a curse
Well living was always the hardest part for you
Why when you fear no death,
Why does it continue to rain?
It’s been a valiant effort to forget
The shame of your everyday pain
I’m feeling the dips and the woes we continue to collect
Small pieces of myself, I tear down as I built up
Got me feeling low, Rip away reality as it unfolds
So WHY do I keep on running when I do not fear my worst
And why, as I watch the world shatter around me, do I beg for answers?
Why when you fear no death,
Why does it continue to rain?
It’s been a valiant effort to forget
The shame of your everyday pain
