picking up sand / throw it overhand / and / wasn't as i planned (wasn't as i planned) / sometimes i am just learning / day by day and im trying / every day to be better / and that's about all i know

circuit breaker
02:13

it's looked the same forever, once again i'm in your room
it's neither worse nor better off that i'm still here for you
i spend the night and feel the fibers in my chest collapse
i don't know how you've always made my circuit short like that
one foot in, one foot on the flame
i love you, if that changes things
i held out for things that never came
i'm always grieving everything
and now it's worse than ever, once again i'm missing you
as if i don't know better, as if it's changing soon
i know your voice like it's a siren seeking flesh again
i know i'll follow it and drown but i just don't know when
one foot in, one foot on the flame
i love you, if that changes things
i stood down for things that never tamed
i always salvage everything
mmm x3
as if i dont know better
one foot in, one foot in
mmm x2
i love you, if that changes things
mmm x3

axon, axoff

writhe in my skin, first thing in the mornin'
it's the shape that i'm in
it's the face that i don't belong in
it's all again and again and again
im on and im off and im on again
i think it over again and again
the axons on and off again
where do i go if i cannot go back where i came from
i'm on my own and i'm watching the world pass, wide-eyed
shadows that go all around in my mind for all time
i, i need a sign
(mm, mm)
i'm jumping the gun, 'in the gun
smoking the subtle fake-outs
toss me the one
box of my trust to shake out
it's all again and again and again
im up and im off and im on again
i think it over again and again
the axons on and off again
where do i go if i cannot go back where i came from
i'm on my own and i'm watching the world pass, wide-eyed
shadows that go all around in my mind for all time
i, i need a sign
(ha, ha)
oh yeah yeah yeah

enough
01:02
|
|||
|
and i never did
tell you how it felt
(and i never did)
look at me now, aren't i what you wanted?
i can't regret it anymore
i'm trying to regenerate
i don't know how long that takes
i have always wanted to be enough
aren't i what you wanted?

why the long face, baby? why the silence lately?
why the sun keep beating, can't it see i'm leaving?
there's a lesson to hold it down, cut me open and tear it out
now i don't go waiting around, super psycho and freaking out
take a number and wait it out
don't the good things come back around?
take a number and wait it out
don't the good things come back around?
numbers over a letter
some time's better than never
numbers over a letter
sometime's better than never

comedown
01:10
|
|||
|
it's not love that hurts, it's the dead end and if
it weren't one sided i'd be one good friend i guess and
fuck who i am without it
how do you feel about it?
i'm a grade A coward, waiting for a meteor shower
and that's how i figure it out
spend all my time just letting myself down
and that's how i kick it around
that's all i really do in a comedown

never did know
01:32
|
|||
|
never did know just how it started
suddenly i was there
on the roof of a car, outside a college
with party polluted air
and
i spent a whole year just to know even less about it
maybe that's just how it goes, when you dance around it
then i was thinking of times, you would call to tell me
baby you're just on my mind
isn't it crazy how the years go
i've lived a million lives
since the last time i knew just when you'd get home
and who you bring inside
and
i spent a few years just to try to forget about it
maybe there's always the whys
when you dance around it
i'd rather think of the times you would call to tell me
you are the love of my life

on the nose
01:12
|
|||
|
is it that on the nose?
you don't look too bad yourself
now, why is that what i sought out
there's a thought that i spoke loud
where'd ya go / where've ya been
wanna know / i've pictured it
mmm

grey over mountainsides
02:10
|
|||
|
grey over mountainsides, i say hello
it's a strange apathy, sweeping in time
oh in time
in every question my trust becomes fleeting
and i can't see anything that won't end up leaving
and sure they could care, what if they don't?
i only translate what yesterday knows
what do i know
what do i know
and i go backwards, to regain my sense of it
i know what happened, you made me unsure of it
and every answer, i never will know 'em
i can't count time the way i recount moments
grey over mountainsides, i say hello
it's a strange apathy, sweeping in time

fold under pressure
01:30
|
|||
|
i'm too sentimental, or i'm too cold
no one wants to hold me, just watch me fold under pressure
cry 'til my head hurts
i'm just a threat, until they're doing better
so don't ask me how i'm doing now
you know i won't really trust you anyhow
mmm
guess it feels pathetic to talk about
how much i conceal because i'd rather doubt that i'm worthy
of anything sturdy
i'm made of bones and bones just get dirty
so don't ask me if it's turned around
you know i don't really wanna let you down
mmm
i'm too sentimental, or i'm too cold
i'm too everything until the story's old

still the same
01:57
|
|||
|
it would seem, that you're still the same to me
i'm still dancing to your beat
in the disbelief that you could want me
some would say, i'm the type to push away
leave your life in disarray
but you never chose to heed the warnings
and i think i may never shake the things
that your smile does to me
or the sun-rays in your disposition
comforting, like i'm home and i can breathe
like a shelter and a sheath
it's a war out there, i'm warm in here
i still need to take the time and find the pieces
it would be the only thing i can believe in
don't you see, there is only one life i am living for
it still catches me off-guard
i can never know how far to let these things go
but i find all this reverence for the time
all that joy and it was mine
and i know, and i know
it would seem, that you're still the same to me
i'm still dancing to your beat, in the disbelief that you still want me

lowdown river turns
carry me out
my demons are the same size as me now
oh, how you've grown
and i'm going far away now
slow down firebird
takin' me down
white lies i seek like grey mountain peaks i
who are all you people anyway?
what're you standing there for?
i'm going far away now

This was not what I expected! I thought this was a pop group (first time hearing this band) but I had to eat my hat because my assumption was so wrong. If you are a fan if complex piano layers, check this out! Also, the bassist and drummer are insane in here. I choked hearing one of the riffs it was that good!
