You always say the same things
And I don't know if you hear
That small voice keeping me alive
You think you know
Where we will all go
When this is all done
And you're washed up
So what's the point of
Pretending you know?
Fooling yourself
Just let it all go

Every day has its ups and downs
Don't think of your situation too much
Will you smile, will you be set free?
Can you see all you were painted to be?
Some days all you want is sleep
Your mind is crowded and it's hard to breathe
Will you smile, will you be set free?
Can you see all that you're needed to be?
Sometimes you just have to ask for help
You just need to learn to hold on

Level One
03:25
|

|
You call up all your friends
And you fill up your basement
You put the disc in the console
And wait for your mind to go
Everywhere it's been before
When will you do more than level one?

Unplugged Alarm Clock

I woke up to your voice
I guess that's what I need
I need to hear you
Hear you in my dreams
I don't help myself
Ignoring all my problems

Metronome

Life changed that day in April
In a room full of all of these people
I was waiting, but I didn't know
My life would change that day at that show
No one is complete on their own
Life is more than just some dumb metronome

Where Are You Going?
03:33
|
|||
|
I heard you were moving
Where will you go?
I've lost all feeling
I've been moving too slow
Our bodies will rot away
And it will be too late
For us to think of other people

Closed Lid

You'll never see anything
With your eyes shut
You'll never see anything with those
buildings crowding
If you're never wrong, you'll never learn
You won't go further
Though I don't know my last day
I know you're with me all the way
You'll never see anything
With you're eyes shut
We don't feel anything
When our love's gone

Mess
04:02
|

|
There's a mess in my room
I made it for you
My car is full of empty cups
And I can't say I'm full
I wish I knew what I was doing
But if I did, I wouldn't learn anything
I wish I knew where I was going
But if I did, I wouldn't learn anything

Myself

I was so scared, so scared of everything
I was so cold, then your voice got so loud
Suddenly everything made sense

If You Quit Listening
05:26
|

|
You learn because you know it helps
You cry because you know it hurts
If you play a game, you'll win or lose
So do you scar or do you bruise?
If you think too long, you'll miss your turn
The easy way out will hurt you most
