Is this the end?
Is this the end of what we could have been?
Is this the end of the road?
Will we find our way back home?
As you stand on your stage, pedestal high
When your pillars fall down you'll look toward the sky
But all you'll see is your star as it stalls
You'll be the only one to blame for your downfall
The world is spinning out of rotation
I'm getting sicker with every second
As time passes I can barely see the end
Is this real or a dream
'Cause nothing seems real to me
We've taken steps forward only to be pushed back down
Is this all over now?
You speak like a child, you don't make any sense
Just throwing cheap thoughts into space
They float but don't strike, they're just empty
You look for the impact but the moment is fleeting
Are you with me?
Are you listening to what I have to say?
I'm on my knees, begging for you to be listening

Every story starts with a "Once upon a time..."
When the stars had aligned and everything was fine
Then when things start to change
And our dreams start to fade
When we live through the bad things
So many people tell me I'm going nowhere fast
How many times must I start all over
To get back to where I stand here?
I'm running in circles and fighting a lost cause
We need to start all over, start all over
I want to close my eyes and sleep forever
They tell me, "Forever's a long time. Forever is a long time..."
So many people tell me I'm going nowhere

Oh My Molly

There was once a time when things were mine
When I kept my thoughts wrapped in my mind
I've been so busy waiting for the pain to subside
But all this time, I've been just fine, I'll be just fine
There was once a time I was alive
When I tried to speak my mind
We've gotten busy waiting for the pain to subside
But, all this time, we've been just fine, we'll be just fine
You take and you take
But what do you want from me?
What do you want from me, Molly?
Oh my Molly (I'll be just fine, I'll be just fine, I'll be just fine)
There will come a time when things will die
When it'll seem that my life has gone by
I've gotten busy waiting for the pain to subside
But, all this time, I've been just fine, I'll be just fine

Morse Code

Blink twice and look around
The blurry world aligns
I lost my place in space and time
By reading between the lines
The signals that you send
Just dots and lines in my head
The anchor holds me out at sea again
The message has become so worn
And nothing makes sense anymore
You keep this image in your head
A nighttime chill invites a sleepless night
So what happens when the morning comes?
You keep this image in your head
And there it stays
But all it takes is just a moment to wash it all away
So I freeze up, words stuck to my teeth
A phrase on my lips, full of honesty
A silent scream of sound
That just comes crashing down
So I freeze up, words stuck to my teeth
A phrase on my lips and my heart on my sleeve
A silent stream of sound
That screams when it comes crashing down
(I'm restless, I'm relentless, I'm reckless, I'm a wreck)
So I freeze up, words stuck to my teeth
A phrase on my lips, full of honesty
A silent scream of sound
That just comes crashing down
