Rarities
04:45

I’ve been behind closed doors
Don't know what I've been searching for
Some kind of release, something's buried deep in me
The days seem to be growing longer
Growing tired, wearing thin
So with my hands pointed toward the sky
I reach for such great heights
I've never been so sure, I've never been so sure
Until this moment, until we reached for heaven
They told me not to reach for things that I can't see
For things that just can't be
You will learn to believe, you will remember me
These are the rarities
The few and far between
The faintest of dreams
I've bottled everything
Don't know where life is taking me
We're on a never-ending road
And if we don't grab a hold we're sure to lose it all
You will learn to believe, you will remember me
These are the rarities

Castles in Spain
04:29
|
|||
A battle is brewing
The devil and God are raging inside me
This war has gone on long and strong and I’m failing
I’m making a life of thin branches
And building a house made of glass
I built castles in Spain, found a home in clichés
And I can’t find my way back
I’ll sculpt you into the perfect piece
And make you out to be everything
I keep my head in the clouds
For fear of what lurks underground
I do this to myself and no one can help me now

Self Talk
03:52
|
|||
They’ll build you up on compliments
And make it so you won’t forget that
Hidden in the passive message are aggressive undertones
It's hard to be yourself when you struggle with your confidence
And all you ever want is to be someone else
I know I don't love myself now
But if I could find some love in me somehow
I'd paint my sky in colors that I like tonight

Funerals
05:07
|

Funerals are for the living
Nothing here is for the dead
We have reached the time and place
To fill ourselves with regret
Sympathy is for the weak
I’d rather stand on my two feet
Than to let my last breath be wasted on apologies
The rain is getting harder here
The lights will flicker, signaling
A call to arms, a battle cry
Knowing time’s not on my side
If I have to die, just let me die
I wonder how I would be
If I moved forward on this one way street
No tears to cry or breaths to hold in
Just moving forward until the end
I am trying to be strong
In this handshake-line procession
With all these "I'm sorry for your loss"-es
It's as empty as this casket and I'm just here
In a room with way too many flowers and I'm choking on the air
And I try to hold my breath but my eyes tear
You never wake up, never go to sleep
You're just lying on your back and it goes
On and on, and on and on, and on and on, and on

Rumspringa
03:50
|
|||
This could be my last chance
My last breath in my hands
If only the future was as clear as I’d like it to be
When I was young I didn’t want to grow old
But the world has made me cold
Where is the warmth that I used to have
When the darkness tried to pull me in?
If I live without living, I’ll die with regret
And this pain in my chest will become a habit
I’ll spend the rest of my life drowning in it
Drowning in who the world has made me
Drowning in it, drowning in it
Turning through old pages of old stories and times
The broken record of tears and scars of mine
Who would have thought I would have made it this far?
So close to the end, but with what left to show for it?
