Mother, May I

Take another look at this life gone stale.
Open up your eyes to the desecration.
Who did you think you were fooling this time?
We can see that your light has faded.
You'll never know so don't pretend.
I can't believe you're back here again.
Stop your faking and start the waiting
for that other half to pass away.
Mother, may I question you?
How'd you get so sick and jaded?
Now you've got no life to call your own.
Scraping up your knees crawling all around me.
Hoping for my re-assurance.
Can't you see that I want nothing more
Than to see you on your feet again.
You'll never know so don't pretend.
I can't believe you're back here again.
Stop the faking and start the waiting
for that other half to pass away.
Mother, may I question you?
How you got so sick and jaded?
Now you've got no son to call your own.
You silly, little thing. You silly, little thing. You're such a silly, stupid little thing.
You can find her falling down
Trying to beat this cruel addiction.
But she's running into only this, my endless dereliction.
Mother, may I question you?
How you got so sick and jaded?
Now you've got no life to call your own.
Mother, may I let you go?
Don't wait up, 'cause I'm not coming home
Because now I've got a life to call my own.

Accident

Something came about in a tired little room
Lit with bright fluorescent and those paintings on the wall.
And you kept on talking...
But I can't take this shit anymore.
You hooked me; took me in, took a tiny ounce of blood.
Did my dirty work and you forgot about yourself.
Return one more sleepless night
'Cause now I'm losing I'm losing control (x3) Of this.
Finding out the truth behind your wicked little lies
was a blow to my heart and it shattered up my mind.
But I kept on giving...
But I won't give up my trust anymore.
You came back, had a cry, told me something otherwise.
Helped me find another little way to understand you.
Return one more sleepless night
'Cause now I'm losing I'm losing control (x3) Of this.
You're taking...
You've taken this...
You're taking this too far.

Change me.
Take all my love and take all my fears.
Take everything that you need from me.
Taste your fears.
Bury your eyes within my reach.
You’ll finally know just what you couldn’t see.
Change Me. Face Me. Change these stupid ways.
You can have what you have wanted.
You can have what you have needed.
You will never have to fear this if you…
if you just lie to him. Lie to him. Lie to him.
Lie to him and change me.
Change me.
Take all my pain and take all my years.
Take it all in and just let us be free.
Feign your way through all these smiles for 300 miles.
I’ll be here waiting for you to just come home.
Let… Let your… Let yourself free.

Cynical Optimist
03:59

You say the city is getting better.
I say it’s crumbling in your hands.
You say the sun shines brighter,
well I think it’s burning me up inside.
You make it out to be the best days of our lives
but I just see things otherwise.
You can call me a cynical optimist.
I don’t expect you to understand this but I hope you do.
You say we’re getting smarter every day.
I say we’re being told what to know.
Our authority has taken our free will
to know, to think, to feel what our body should.
I know it’s hard for you to think along these lines
but you want to, I can see it in your eyes.
You can call me a cynical optimist.
I don’t expect you to understand this but I hope you do.
"Our children can still play," you say.
But not without their armor on.
"We can still love our sons and daughters."
Until they turn their backs on us.
We’re losing our rights to live.
We’ve got nothing else to give.
Can’t you see we are turning our men against their brothers?
We cower in the fear they spread.
We gotta realize all that we’ve been fed
and step out from the womb of our mothers.
Step out from the womb of your mother.

As You Run Away
03:52

Running to the edge of everything we knew.
We could not comprehend this,
We couldn't fight it off even if we wanted to.
Chasing after you, 'cause after all, you allowed me to
add another chapter of wonder.
I'd give up my soul to help complete you. Well...
And I breathe and I breathe
motionless, as you run away...
And I breathe.
And I breathe.
And I breathe.
And I breathe.
So now, it would seem that I'm just another toy,
just another tool to feed your ego.
Just another fool to think that I could do this.
When did you become so hypocritical?
I thought you knew better.
Here I breathe and I breathe
motionless, as you run away...
And I breathe.
And I breathe.
And I breathe.
And I breathe.
I should remind you ever pattern is a rhythm,
that's what you have said before.
Taking over and taking control of this
overwhelming test of our devotion.
I can guarantee I will be there,
waiting patiently for the breakdown.
Never giving up my strength to overcome
this trial of absolute fidelity.
Your life should not be a vicious cycle.
But I cant help you out until you let me in.
