Track Lyrics

A Quiet Mind Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
A slow strangle with your feet on the floor
I've got 14 angels and we're sleeping alone
In the back of a cave where the rest of us go
To feel normal
I call baby up, leave me alone
I'm in pain but I won't let you Band-Aid my wound
I am mad at a stage where I can't seem to handle my own
(Can't even handle my)
[Chorus:]
You give me a quiet mind
And I, I love you
You give me a quiet mind
And I, I love you
Until the end
Until the end, yeah
[Verse 2:]
Give me strength to be kind, to combine
All the good things in life that are so hard to find
But I have and I won't let them go like I do with my friends
(My friends)
Still hearing voices from front, from behind
They're the reasons I choose
When to live, how to die
When to cast, when to reel
When to buy, when to steal
When to fiend for the friends that taught you
Being inappropriate will
[Chorus:]
You give me a quiet mind
And I, I love you
You give me a quiet mind
And I, I love you
Until the end
Until the end, yeah

Somebody Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So you dropped me
Held me by my feet and let me go
I fell between the seat, but nothing broke
I've yet to feel that brilliant afterglow
The one I knew of years ago
And now I'm twisted
I'm twisted from the waist and spun around
Promised only sky, but given ground
I realized the makeup is for a clown
The clown I knew of months ago
[Chorus]
I only wanted to be somebody
So fucking bad, I came unglued
I only wanted to be somebody
And here we are now, yeah, face to face
And I'm fucking you
[Verse 2]
So you caught me
Wishing I were better than the rest
You hit me and left bruises on my chest
And when I wouldn't cheat, I spit upon your test
The test I tore up weeks ago
And now my fist is
My fist is for your face to cock the jaw
When I begin to rise, you start to fall
Now you know how it feels to drop the ball
The ball I threw back days ago
[Chorus]
I only wanted to be somebody
So fucking bad, I came unglued
I only wanted to be somebody
And now here we are, yeah, face to face
And I'm fucking you
[Bridge]
So I'll just stand right here for now
I should have won, but how?
I break a smartass grin
Who let the loser win?
Let's break a smartass grin
Let's let the losers win!
[Chorus x2]
I only wanted to be somebody
So fucking bad, I came unglued
I only wanted to be somebody
And now here we are, yeah, face to face
And I'm fucking you

Come in Closer Lyrics

[Verse]
The first born, my heart will call Truly
A God-like boy of the sky
The fog hissed away like a movie
And serpents go home for the night
The thundercloud rain hits the freeway
And the clowns put on makeup for show
The nightfall, my skin crawl kind of evening
Yeah, how the wind, she blows
And how the wind, she blows
[Chorus]
But I want you to come in closer
Come in closer, come in closer
Come in closer, come in closer, come in closer
Come in closer, in closer
[Verse]
Come dancing with devils
Need not know their names
But we'll waltz like an army
For the fear of our pain
And our souls become useless
As the day they were born
In a rusted arm rocking chair
Away from your storm
But still, the truth remains lethal
A lie made by man
Where my shoes become hammers
And my words become sand
Like a sour patch, a wedding batch
Of roses you threw across my floor
In the rusted arm rocking chair
Away from your storm
[Chorus]
But I want you to come closer
Come in closer, come in closer
Come in closer, come in closer, come in closer
I want you to come in closer, ease in closer
I really do
Come in closer, come in closer, come in closer
Come in closer, come in closer, come in closer
Just come in closer, in closer
I want you to, I want you to
I want you to, just to come in closer, in closer
