Half sunk in the mud
With one eye showing A cracked smile And hair still growing Your hands miles apart As if they'd never met You were the happiest I'd seen you yet |

More than ever it seems true to say
Things won't always be this way The ways we've thought to get this far Are as outdated as we are But I won't change it and neither will you When what seemed the appropriate are now the wrong things to do If in every act there's something good I haven't done all the good things I could And more than ever I know that's not true Are there any good thing left to do? Are there any right ways left to be? That's not a question best left to me Cause I won't say anything I should decide If intentions aren't possible to hide I won't act any way I don't Want to reveal if you won't |

I wiped away the sweat on my face
And I looked around the room There was nothing out of place But nothing was happening too soon I could see the empty chair Leaning against its shadow Even though there was nothing there There was something in my eyes followed Like marks across the sky Erased as they're made I could see people going by Through the moonlit shade But no one stopped to look Through the blinds on the window I guess they all took Me for someone they don't know A parade falls apart When the music slows down When the streets are in knots But there's no one left in town When the sweat leaves your face And the fear leaves your knees And you live in this place Where you live with complete ease |

What have you done
How could you be so So many times Accidents don't happen this much Not this time every day It's such a bad excuse To wait for tomorrow To think another day's Enough to wait for the next Do you really need time You know I can't leave Though you hate to hear this every night I can't keep you unaware Of the time that you have After how long you've asked I can't make you forget ... I've forgotten to say So many things Too many times Complete all the half thoughts That were only half mine About how if nothing happened That it was meant to be I can't believe what kind of things I made myself believe If I take my own advice It will always only show The meaning it's lacked If I found a new conviction Will you and I start to feel it Slip out of our hands |

Extreme ways are back again
Extreme places I didn't know I broke everything new again Everything that I'd owned I threw it out the windows, came along Extreme ways I know, will part The colors of my sea Perfect color me Extreme ways that help me They help me out late at night Extreme places I had gone But never seen any light Dirty basements, dirty noise Dirty places coming through Extreme worlds alone Did you ever like it planned I would stand in line for this There's always room in life for this Oh baby, oh baby Then it fell apart, it fell apart Oh baby, oh baby Then it fell apart, it fell apart Oh baby, oh baby Then it fell apart, it fell apart Oh baby, oh baby Like it always does, always does Extreme times that told me They held me down every night I didn't have much to say I didn't get above the light I closed my eyes and closed myself And closed my world and never opened Up to anything That could get me alone I had to close down everything I had to close down my mind Too many things to cover me Too much can make me blind I've seen so much in so many places So many heartaches, so many faces So many dirty things You couldn't even believe I would stand in line for this It's always good in life for this Oh baby, oh baby Then it fell apart, it fell apart Oh baby, oh baby Then it fell apart, it fell apart Oh baby, oh baby Then it fell apart, it fell apart Oh baby, oh baby Like it always does, always does |

If my head's on my shoulder
Then I'm getting older My face didn't look like this Last year I can see it clearly but the change seems early The only thing that makes me look back Is nostalgia ... Are your eyes getting wiser With compliments I know I'm a miser But the only thing that makes me look forward Is forgetting |

It's always this year's gift
Is it ever what I wanted Was I unhappy living in the past Has my growth been that stunted When to be ashamed is to be defined And all this self awareness The blind led by the blind An empty conscience is sensitivity I have to pretend I'm overcome with humility It always comes on time Not a second before the instant But this year I think I'd rather be a relic Than part of the present |
