Drown Me

There once was a girl who fell for another one.
Called them her lover, 'cause she sure a hell loved it
when they spoke about the future.
The life they'd have together.
In the woods, big tall trees like nothing could matter.
No one would say "This isn't right! You're not okay!"
Maybe she wouldn't worry what her mother had to say.
Her family weren't religious but sin was still sin in their eyes.
Jesus Christ!
Go ahead and drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles set me off. Set this off.
And drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles.
And hold your breath 'till you reach the top.
Pray to God from within.
Scrape your knees let them bleed out down,
across your feet and to the ground.
And I will try to bite my tongue,
hold my breath and think
of the safest haven in my mind.
When the big hand strikes twelve,
I'll speak through my teeth and say...
Go ahead and drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles set me off. Set this off.
And drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles.
And hold your breath 'till you reach the top.
Go ahead and drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles set me off. Set this off.
And drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles.
And hold your breath 'till you reach the top.
Go ahead and drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles set me off. Set this off.
And drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles.
And hold your breath 'till you reach the top.
Go ahead and drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles set me off. Set this off.
And drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles.
And hold your breath 'till you reach the top.
Go ahead and drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles set me off. Set this off.
And drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles.
And hold your breath 'till you reach the top.
Go ahead and drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles set me off. Set this off.
And drown me in the holiest of waters.
Light your candles.
And hold your breath 'till you reach the top.

Picture frames.
Over exposed photos from better days and quieter thoughts.
Late night walks along your side.
Late night talks about the mind and how the you see
is different to me.
Head to toe,
we see flawless places faces with days that'r covered by
outright ignorance just turn a blind eye and preach
your innocence. You're not that innocence.
Preach your innocence. You're not that innocent.
Time in taping my mouth.
It's overtaking me. It's overtaking me.
Time is filling me with doubt.
It's overtaking me. You're overtaking
me.
Faceless names.
And a clock without a second hand in it's second home.
Well raised by a family of four.
I could almost beat the door down, with the beat of my heart.
Together we'd make a marching band.
Sing it over and over and over again.
Time in taping my mouth.
It's overtaking me. It's overtaking me.
Time is filling me with doubt.
It's overtaking me. You're overtaking
me.
Time in taping my mouth.
It's overtaking me. It's overtaking me.
Time is filling me with doubt.
It's overtaking me. You're overtaking
me.

Parks (Acoustic)

Today I'll wake up.
And I'll try and look you in the eyes.
Don't get me wrong it's what I want.
And I'm trying so damn hard.
But my mind is dislocated,
from every move I make.
Sometimes my hands will shake.
And my mouth won't say the words I need to say.
Give me time and give me patience
And I will give you what you want.
All that you deserve.
I'll give you all I've got.
But for now there's song.
And I know it might not make sense.
But it does in my head.
And not too often does that happen.

Road To Nowhere

Take me down this road to nowhere.
And you can watch me fall.
And you can watch me.
Take me down this road to nowhere.
But drive slow.
'Cause my mind's turning left and turning out right.
And I don't mind
at all.
I'll take this walk with one foot forward
and two hands overhead.
To let you know I'm fine.
To let you know
to leave your baggage low so you can breathe
without suffocating me
you're suffocating me.
Slow and steady I can hear her.
Slow and steady take me nearer.
Slow and steady move me forward.
Slow and steady I can hear her.
Slow and steady take me nearer.
Slow and steady move me forward.
Slow and steady I can hear her.
Slow and steady take me nearer.
Slow and steady move me forward.
Slow and steady I can hear her.
Slow and steady take me nearer.
Slow and steady move me forward.
