Lost Your Name Lyrics

3 ContributorsLost Your Name LyricsI need a place, need a taste
Need someone so whole and clean
I need a spark, I need your spark
To light this house so dark and deep
 
So call my name
Call my name
 
I lost my head, lost my heart
Cast in iron, it will heat
I lost your name, lost the shape
Of our bodies tangling
 
And when I cry, do you cry?
I listen so ever quietly
For a sign that my time
Is over and out of reach
 
Even when you scolded me
I still felt it special
Can feel it with my eyes closed
Laying in your tangles
 
Lost your name
Speak up, calm me down
Be my novocaine
 
 
Call my name
And even when I'm hurting
Do you feel the pain?
 
Swallowing
A part of me
There's a colder side to everything
 
Pardon me
For offering
You can leave me with your eyes closed
 
Even when you scolded me
I still felt it special
Can feel it with my eyes closed
Laying in your tangles
 
Lost you in a steady flow
At least I thought so
 
I need a place, need a taste
Need someone so whole and clean
I need a spark, I need your spark
To light this house so dark and deep
 
So call my name
Call my name
 
 
I lost my head, lost my heart
Cast in iron, it will heat
I lost your name, lost the shape
Of our bodies tangling
 
And when I cry, do you cry?
I listen so ever quietly
For a sign that my time
Is over and out of reach

Cut Me Open Lyrics

2 ContributorsCut Me Open LyricsI could've sworn that you knew my conscience was not clean
(You fade in and fade out)
Crawling up into nothing at your feet
 
You're going to leave me all alone again
Don't say you never did
And by the time I get to know you
In this shell of emptiness
I'm drowning
 
See my fate
See all
It's such a shame
 
Fake what you love
And I've had enough
And there's a colder side to you that we've not seen
(You fade in and fade out)
Crawling up into nothing at your feet
 
Lay your hands on me
Pull me out
From your background
 
Falling at your feet
Find me out
Cut me open
 
 
Show me how you weep
And spill your heart to me
 
I never know what it is telling you
I hope that it is "stay"
Take a look at what I've left for you
This pain to wash away
I'm drowning
 
See my fate
See all
It's such a shame
 
Lay your hands on me
Pull me out
From your background
 
Falling at your feet
Find me out
Cut me open
 
God save us men
Cut by a jagged edge
Fall to your knees
Defeat shadows me
 
 
I could've sworn that you knew my conscience was not clean
Saw a hole in me
 
Glow, be the sun in the morning
And show me that you're here
Take the time to get to know me
And see there's no one else
 
Talk, won't you say?
Save it for another day?
Come be my light
The sun in my night time

Reflection Lyrics

7 ContributorsReflection LyricsA weak hold, some call it pitiful
Their reasons, say what you really mean
I cave in, ran out of miracles
Reflection, who do I really see?
Oh, I'll come down and take it in close
 
You said you'd come when you're ready
And I've been taking my time
Burn all the wreckage and start it all over
We're building a message and life with you closer
 
No faith in anything and I have no back bone
Call me an enemy but I hope you linger
Won't you wake up and see it all for the first time
And speak up, say what you really mean
Oh, I'll come down and take it in, open my eyes
You see that I'm ready
Come save me from medicine
I'm close
 
You said you'd come when you're ready
And I've been taking my time
Burn all the wreckage and start it all over
We're building a message and life with you closer
 
A weak hold, some call it pitiful
Their reasons, say what you really mean
I cave in, ran out of miracles
Reflection, who do I really see?
