- Cheese Factory, Captain of the Football Team
I feel hollowed by every time I let you down, because every stumble feels like one thousand defeats.
These sorry eyes speak every word that your mouth never could.
These skinny legs that shake with doubt tell me what this is all about.
These sorry eyes speak every word that your mouth never could
I want you more than my breath.
- Deafhorse for Michael
All I wanted was to see you again, I almost tripped on my own feet as I went to the door. Pushed your hair back, kissed you on the cheek you told me you love me but I can see you lying to me. I can see you lying to me.
It seems you knew from the start.
Exactly what you'd say.
When you would empty my chest,
and throw what was left on the ground.
I pull back the pieces.
- Let's Go, Stanley
I pull everything to close in order to keep this working, I always jump on ahead, so that I keep lurking,
In the dark all by myself, doesn't that contradict itself?
Why do I panic when you're not around? These mounds of paper give me something I've found, I'm looking for something, something not lost, but something repressed in this terrible mess.
- Riding Suns and Killing Stars
Oh I will punish my lips for every word they spoke to you, I hope it never comes out, the truths I never told you, your eyes don't even flutter the way they used to, when I'd tear down a wall and then another. but it doesn't matter.
I know my voice won't be heard
By the night that shadows me
It was never one to speak
So why should I speak now.
Bite the lip and turn away, my dear your back is killing me, all we are is lost at sea all we are is drowning me.
