Everyone Is For Sale

I sing my songs
“Are you going to see the concert tonight
Are you going to hear it
Okay
You hear it and see it
And uh
It’s going to happen fast
And you’re not going to get it all
And you might even hear the wrong words
No
And then afterwards see I can’t
I won’t be able to talk to you afterwards I’ve got nothing to say about these things I write
I mean I just write em’
I don’t have anything to say about em’
I don’t write em’ for any reason
There’s no great message
I mean if you know want to tell other people that go ahead and tell em’
But I’m not going to have to answer to it”

We're Among Enemies
03:28
|

Ah, let’s face it
Face me unafraid
I am sheep.
It has growing teeth.
Our eyes meet
It circles me unafraid
I am a coward wearing Sheppard’s clothing
Ah, let’s face it
The bite stings
I’m afraid I won’t make it through the fucking mourning
I won’t run
I won’t write
You don’t bare any insight
I may be a jealous man
I may be a jealous man
I may be a jealous wreck
But a heart this cathartic doesn’t need your hand
New love
From ocean to sand
Back from hell with a lung in each hand
End of my rope
Undertow
New love hand in hand
Artists don’t paint for free
On the walls of shitty house parties
Artists don’t paint for free
But I will sing for you if you sing for me too
Ah, just face it
Face them not afraid
I won’t beg at anyone’s feet
I won’t fight
I may fight but I won’t flight
New love hand in hand
She won’t love you when she’s reached the end
Of her rope undertow
New love hand in hand
Back from hell with a lung in each hand
From ocean to sand
I’m new love new life new wife I’m unstuck
I could give a fuck
Artists don’t paint for free
On the walls of shitty house parties
Artists don’t paint for free
But I will sing for you if you sing for me too
I am lungs black hazmat last chance panic attack
Rub your fist on your solar plexus
Call all your enemies back
Call your enemies back
Call your enemies back
I am a heart out of tune
I am a heart out of tune
I couldn’t connect to you
Love is not destination
And it is not a place
We don’t get there by faking
Or by changing our ways
You are enough
You’re new life and new love
Don’t you ever give up
Sharp teeth the bite stings wounds heel
Tell them you’ve had enough
You’re new life and new love
But so far from a proper tune up

Conflict Resolution
00:52
|
|||
You cannot stay
You can’t just stand in my door way
You cannot stay
You can’t just stand in my doorway anymore
Anymore

Que Sera
03:14

You just looked away
And I said everything off the top of my head
Come sink back to the bottom
If I am a heart out of tune you’re just a flower that will never bloom
You will never bloom
You just looked away
So I turned and I said everything off the top of my head
If you float back up to the surface I’ll be sick
But at least I could finally breathe in
I have nothing to show you as proof
I’m only half as dead as you
Que Sera c’est la vie
What comes of me comes of me
Don’t pull up your anchor
Don’t sail to the shore
Just stay here at the bottom because I need your weight
I’m floating back up without you and without your help I’m afraid
I’m afraid that what has become of me isn’t half of the man
The man that I had once set out to be
But at least I can breathe after finally escaping
I’ll wait by the shore and bide my time
Love is no fairy tale
Love is no alibi
Que Sera c’est la vie
What comes of me comes of me
Don’t pull up your anchor
Don’t sail to the shore
Just stay here at the bottom because I need your weight
I am the beating of your heart when you whisper
I am the calm before the storm and when you kiss her I am
I am
I am the beating of your heart when you whisper
I am the calm before the storm and when you kiss her I am

Guilt Association
01:02
|
|||
Caught inside one big messy lie too complex to believe
You are too complex to be
Leave for me
Will you lie with me
Our world got flipped turned upside down
Just fight your way back for me
Fight your way back
Fight your way
I don’t know why I fight for you to believe
I don’t know why
I don’t know why I fight for you to believe
You are a fake wearing artists clothing
You are a fake wearing artists clothing
You are a fake wearing artists clothing

A Heart Out Of Tune
01:19
|

If I clap my hands will you count the beat
Keeping time with it
If I raise my voice will you sing for me time and time again

Speakers Corner
01:56
|

Do you see us
We are hollow to the touch because we were loved and lost
We were young
Oh and god had taken them one by one
All for what
Just to leave me here buried under music
Buried under music times up
Remember us
Eyes glued to the TV like a crutch
All for what
It’s all gone
You were wrong my love
We were young
Oh and god had taken them one by one
All for what
Just to leave me here buried under music
Buried under music
Sing on
Sing long
Sing for you and me
For the fallen ones
Sing on
Sing long because we found out who will if no one does
Stand up for the young bloods
Who don’t know any better and sing it all for love and let us be buried by music
Ah, my hearts back in tune by dear I can prove it
And let us be buried by music
And let us be buried by music

Suicide Pact
02:12

God twist
Twist the knife in my back because I’m still
Still getting used to it
Let go
Remove me from my senses until I regain all control
Don’t put that gun in your mouth and just smile like you mean it
Get up
Smile ear to ear
I’ve been standing in line
Ah, for quite some time
I’ve been standing in line to hell just waiting to take over
Times up
Wake up
Some friends aren’t real
Some families aren’t love
Enough music to get us through it
I sing out of tune
I am out of touch
I am no longer waiting this is mine for the taking
In hell we don’t get out of line we scrape from the barren
In hell we don’t make our own minds
Live under the stairwell
In hell her she is the reason
She’d never believe it
In hell it’s not the four seasons it’s no love or grievance of
I know where you live and I know where you hide
And I know where you keep your crown
The blood is in the water
I’m a shark I’ve arrived tonight
Tonight
Tonight hell is mine
I don’t give him a spit of a chance
The devil can’t hold me back

When you find yourself in love you’ll call out a savior you know nothing about

We Are Free
06:13
|

As I lay down in bed to sleep she askes me “Am I yours to keep”
I say nothing
I sing along to nobody’s love songs
I sing along like neither of us need to breathe
Because we are free
As I lay back down to sleep
You changed me into something I couldn’t be
You made me cold, tired, empty, relenting
I wish you’d see
When you get your feet back on the ground and your head is out of the clouds
Love come down your head is spinning around
The nights are long but with you they felt
You sang along and you didn’t know the song
You sang along and you lied straight through your teeth
You made me feeling like I’m nothing
I’m something just wait and see
When you get your feet back on the ground and your head is out of the clouds
Love come down your head is spinning around
The nights are long but with you they felt
They just felt short somehow
I’m so afraid that I’m not good enough
I’m so afraid that I’m not good enough for you
My love I tried
I am a sirens I won’t change my mind
But I didn’t wait my entire life just to sail your troubled waters
My love I’ve opened my eyes
Pulled up my anchor and said my goodbyes because I
Couldn’t live my entire life trying to fit your broken heart inside of mine
If I were going to change my love I would have by now
If I were going to change my love I would have by now
I’m not afraid that I’m not good enough
I’m not afraid that I’m not good enough for you
We’re not afraid that we’re not good enough
We’re not afraid that we’re not good enough
We’re not afraid that we’re not good enough for you
My love I’m tired
Lied through you teeth but girl so can I
Went other places when you slept at night
We are free
So did I
I cry out “Let me be free”
The surface looks down
Ah, they say
They say “Let em’ swim”
I smile and wave
I’ve got an ace up my sleeve
The nights were long but they felt like I was someone else and you were just a hollow shell
I had to cover up myself
The only way that I won’t hurt anybody else
Don’t get in my way
I’ll drag you into the sea
You cannot sleep with your eyes open
You cannot speak with the living dead
But I have been
I’ve been saying goodbye for so long
I have been saying goodbye for so long
You cannot sleep with your eyes open
You cannot speak with the living dead
I cannot believe it
I thought I was breathing
I cannot believe it
I would rather be with you than never sleep
