I've got to run away from everything tonight I hate this place, I'll get away and I won't return so say what you want to me then be at peace when I leave (and I'm leaving) I've got to run away, I'll disappear for good I'll leave behind the feelings I've for you, they'll hold me back and I want you to understand that I am not your man (I'm nothing) when I am far away, this world will start to fade you'll find your life is changed when you forget about me I've got to run away from everything without you in this auxiliary, another day and I would fall part to hate the words I'm saying would be to hate me too you know I'm leaving some distance down the road I will forget you, I won't turn back watch the shadows lengthen, watch them spin around watch them lay flat, I'm not coming back if you wanted me too, know I can't remember you but as some relic from long ago when I was someone else your soul hardens your soul hardens a shell is your arrogance you know, you knew someone else, someone who would run away run away run away run away run away run away

Lock me here with the words that you said what was meant? you say you're not making sense there are parts of my life that I can't control I wanted to see you and I didn't keeping gold, hung over my head (you're for remembering not for taking back) don't talk to May 'till you know that I've left (keep me in your heart, Yellow Jacket) Hey Yellow Jacket keep the scarf around your neck it's freezing all morning and I'd hate to see you shiver it's not concern that I'd feel for you, why would I? you've made your choices without me, three rings on your finger walking down the street we'll talk, justify the morality to suffer not the fools but suffer for their families October again, the best time of year when shit's not sorted out we'll get to that eventually when there's snow in the air this is me, your heart's in my arms where it'll stay and every time you look away I'm fading I have known for a while now that what you feel for me is wonder at the way that I talk all quiet and undercut like leaves falling on the lawn but keep it to yourself, know when I tell you these jokes that I hate it when you smile now fall, fall, fall fall apart in bed your rings are in my pocket and I shouldn't be proud of my stance but I am so tell me what I'm feeling and feed me seeds of anger since my eyes refuse to cry let me settle as a singer write a chorus for the morning as cold as the northern wind raining from my fingertips runs up you spine the down again tell me why we crawl beneath our dreams reveal to me the mystery but there's no answer it's just what we do but why? is it what I fear? these days are weird when the clouds have cleared catch me down by the water I can't care about anything, about you today through tomorrow this is me, your heart's in my arms I could crush it and never see you again keep your rings in sun in shine and I'll leave then oh the final time I look away we're bleeding we're bleeding we're bleeding we're bleeding we're bleeding we're bleeding we're bleeding right!

snow, make your home inside of me cast you shadow when the lightning strikes in the night form its shape in unnatural ways and scare away the dreamers in my sleep

May 03:30
May, stand beside, I don't know if you're right but stay I'll hold in my hands all your body to mend, rest awake tell me again that you love me and then we'll be away pretend not to hear all their warnings we fear will waste our lives oh but we can try and put our health aside, let our bodies fall apart we hold in our eyes visions of another life we can't create but try and reach towards the glow of a world with the hope of future May, stand beside, love the feelings we hide between our skins nothing is meant and I don't care how it ends I won't take anything less we don't have to go on when we both know that we're wrong we're not made for this world, we'll make it our own though and sleep alone, pull the curtains closed and fold the canvas (rip it off) sleep alone, lay the lights down low and fold here into me May, stand beside, I don't need to be shown to your friends the silver it spreads up your arms down your legs and only you know when it ends

Think of me 05:25
the sunlight opens up the wall the kill the night left in my bedroom and wake me from the fold of gold and silver are the night skies in my dreams I let them fall around me then fade away, leave me in my room it's today, I'm leaving black and red is the road long and pointless it stands burnt in the day swallowing the rain float right down the stream the gallop up again find good company then run away, run away and to the beat of footsteps know there is a song and it goes right now right now I'm where I want to be but if you feel the need stranger, you can think of me know I won't stop you oh you could act out more call me in the morning I would pick up anything but nothing more can happen I'm not wasting all this time no it's my time to live to win to be present every second see the brighter side once in a little while but it's hard when the wind blows as hard as it has now I feel mangled misused a sickness is hatching in my head no I'm not alone here, I'm not alone here it's crowded, I'm pushed against the wall and every feeling here is evil just floating around in circles, circles here I raise my head (I look at the sun) open my eyes (burns bright as it does) I shake myself (and I know that) I've arrived where I'm meant to be but darling memories I've left you strewn along the road thrown out the window you could find every piece a jigsaw is the story and all it does is think of me never forgetting oh in the future I will find the morning light I'll pull my body up and feel it's sun finally I'm here I'm real, the birds sing in harmony all is right with days with nights I fit here in the corner more than any other place in reason and in shape perfection's tedium but probably worth it in the long run I'm not sure I just know I'm bored some problems solve themselves grow until they burst there's no guarantee there's no guarantee no guarantee will you think of me?

The weed 04:52
open the window let me in wrap around my body constrict me tell me the future will you stay the way you are? I promise May is nothing to me, a thorn in my side let me say heaven is a blanket where the world recedes all my problems roll away with the tide so grant to me relief on the basis I stand in your bedroom with arms intertwined am I right? I think I'm right in heaven do men breathe so deep? in heaven do we dream? roll up the covers let me stand or leave me here to root a weed is born, a weed is born listen, the wind blows harder when there's love on its trail to deliver every kiss to the sun I hope one day we can recover the loss for now just keep everything under your tongue well heaven's gonna come it's gonna cover me up and your dreams may shine bright next to mine but pretty faces don't get you where you figured you'd be give it time and another lover maybe the wind blows north, and it's blowing sharper than a broken bone I won't go outside it'll cut me down I know that I'm not strong enough I'll never reach heaven again, I'm sorry now say you'll be there say you'll wrap around me keep me planted here the weed, the scum of your heart open your eyes, see me (the weed, the weed, the weed) open the window let the wind in part your lips across the middle (ode you'll say to me) open your chest and let this love blow away

decorated in the cloth I watched my mother sew I leave home I walk alone (alone, alone) down the side of the road (down the side of the road where I live) it's not raining tonight but it's raining tomorrow I watch the sun collapse (casting shadows on the grass) into the distant land (I see only through the glass) where the lumberman sings and the forest just cries and cries right now, I'm where I want to be finding the reason finding it all in fire and hate with a lens of solid gold I'm trapped beneath the slumber of a New year, wasting away between every minute I wished I could stay but the path was made and I followed along as sure as the river wept grabbing at the shore there is no choice but to run with the flow so I do, and I do decorated in the cloth I bought, it's mine alone I walk home with hands of steel and scars my body's a painted machine and it's starving, I'm breaking apart longing for centuries I need someone to feel me or strip me down past the skin and bone left behind the curtain is the ghost of all unknown know me know me know me know me I sleep alone staring at the walls of my room where the rain trickles down but all is right now I'm gone
