"Taxi Cab" I wanna fall inside your ghost And fill up every hole inside my mind And I want everyone to know That I am half a soul divided Sometimes we will die and sometimes we will fly away Either way you're by my side until my dying days And if I'm not there and I'm far away I said, "Don't be afraid." I said, "Don't be afraid. We're going home." I wanna strip myself of breath A breathless piece of death I've made for you A mortal writing piece of song will help me carry on But this you heard Sometimes we will die and sometimes we will fly away Either way you're by my side until my dying days And if I'm not there and I'm far away I said, "Don't be afraid." I said, "Don't be afraid. We're going home." So the hearse ran out of gas A passenger person grabbed a map And the driver inside it contrived a new route to save the past And checked his watch and grabbed a cab A beautifully plain taxi cab A cab, had it cleared out back and two men started to unpack Driving once again But now this time there were three men And then I heard one of them say, "I know the night will turn to gray I know the stars will start to fade When all the darkness fades away We had to steal him from his fate So he could see another day." Then I cracked open my box Someone must have picked the lock A little light revealed the spot Where my fingernails had fought Then I pushed it open more Pushing up against the door Then I sat up off the floor And found the breath I was searching for Then there were three men up front All I saw were backs of heads And then I asked them, "Am I alive and well or am I dreaming dead? And then one turned around to say, "We're driving toward the morning sun Where all your blood is washed away And all you did will be undone." I said, "Don't be afraid." "Glowing Eyes" We all are stranger creatures than when we all started out as kids, Culture forbids, We have romantic fantasies about what dying truly is, To fall off the grid. We live for the night's decor, It reveals what we dream of. I know there's someone at the door, They called for help, of this I'm sure, But do I want to say goodbye to all the glowing eyes, I'm holding on to what I know, And what I know, I must let go, But I would rather play a song for the eyes to sing along. We all know somebody who knows somebody who's doing great, I know some people who know people who are flying straight, But I'll kindly enter into rooms of depression, While ceiling fans and idle hands will take my life again. We live for the night's decor, It reveals what we dream of. I know there's someone at the door, They called for help, of this I'm sure, But do I want to say goodbye to all the glowing eyes, I'm holding on to what I know, And what I know, I must let go, But I would rather play a song for the eyes to sing along. This room is far too dark for us to stay around, Redemption's not that far and darkness is going down. Make them stop. I'm holding on to what I know, And what I know, I must let go, But I would rather play a song for the eyes to sing along. Make them stop. "Semi-Automatic" Night falls with gravity, The earth turns from sanity, Taking my only friend I know, He leaves a lot, his name is "Hope". I'm never what I like, I'm double sided, and I just can't hide, I kind of like it when I make you cry, 'Cause I'm twisted up, I'm twisted up inside. The horrors of the night melt away, Under the warm glow of survival of the day, Then we move on, My shadow grows taller, along with my fears, And my frame shrinks smaller as night grows near. When the sun is climbing window sills, And the silver lining rides the hills, I will be saved for one whole day, Until the sun makes the hills it's grave. I'm never what I like, I'm double sided, and I just can't hide, I kind of like it when I make you cry, 'Cause I'm twisted up, I'm twisted up inside. I'm never what I like, I'm double sided, and I just can't hide, I kind of like it when I make you cry, 'Cause I'm twisted up, I'm twisted up inside my mind. [x4:] I'm semi-automatic, my prayer's schizophrenic, But I'll live on, yeah I'll live on, yeah I'll live on. By the time the night wears off, The dust is down and shadows burn, I will rise and stand my ground, Waiting for the night's return. I'm never what I like, I'm double sided, and I just can't hide, I kind of like it when I make you cry, 'Cause I'm twisted up, I'm twisted up inside. I'm never what I like, I'm double sided, and I just can't hide, I kind of like it when I make you cry, 'Cause I'm twisted up, I'm twisted up inside my mind. "Fall Away" [2x] I don't wanna fall, fall away I don't wanna fall, fall away I'll keep the lights on in this place 'Cause I don't wanna fall, fall away I disguise And I will lie And I will take my precious time As the days melt away As I stand in line And I die as I wait as I wait on my crime And I'll try to delay what you make of my life But I don't want your way, I want mine I'm dying and I'm trying But believe me I'm fine But I'm lying, I'm so very far from fine And I, I can feel the pull begin Feel my conscience wearing thin And my skin It will start to break up and fall apart I don't wanna fall, fall away I don't wanna fall, fall away I'll keep the lights on in this place 'Cause I don't wanna fall, fall away Every time I feel selfish ambition Is taking my vision And my crime is my sentence Repentance is taking commission It's taking a toll On my soul I'm screaming submission and, I don't know if I am dying or living 'Cause I will save face For name's sake Abuse grace Take aim to obtain a new name And a newer place But my name is lame I can't walk and I ain't the same And my name became A new destiny to the grave And I, I can feel the pull begin Feel my conscience wearing thin And my skin, It will start to break up and fall apart I don't wanna fall, fall away I don't wanna fall, fall away I'll keep the lights on in this place 'Cause I don't wanna fall, fall away "Oh Ms Believer" Oh, Miss Believer, my pretty sleeper Your twisted mind is like snow on the road Your shaking shoulders prove that it's colder Inside your head than the winter of dead I will tell you I love you But the muffs on your ears will cater your fears My nose and feet are running as we start To travel through snow Together we go We get colder As we grow older We will walk So much slower Oh, Miss Believer, my pretty weeper Your twisted thoughts are like snow on the rooftops Please, take my hand, we're in foreign land As we travel through snow Together we go We get colder As we grow older We will walk So much slower +1 if you read all of these
