can a shared home be this cold
how could we ever hope to know
the other's needs, we're drifting apart
all while looking for a place to meet.
an island of a man, i brush away your hand
show you every reason exactly why i can't love or be loved.
you're too far to hear but when we're close i don't have the nerve to speak.
i can't make the words come out i never say what i really mean.
do you wonder why it's hard? do you wonder when did this
thing start for me? because i do. i think about it. i wonder...
what do you see and what do you hear when i speak
what crucial piece am i missing
do i need to go in search of a common word, a common phrase
we could learn or create a shared language for us two
where you can hear, and i can speak, and baby someday i'll hear you
we're building walls in subtle ways how
silent nights turn into silent days
oh, you're home now? i didn't notice
we shuffle to our rooms and go our separate ways.
try to find a light to save,
i'm putting love to rest, putting love to shame.
putting an end to all the care that we once gave.

peace of mind

i don't love but i can wear disguises.
i'll wear a mask, pull the hood and hide myself for you.
oh, it's a shame that you learned not to mind it.
how did you learn not to mind it, not to mind me?
i can try until i'm better, but i know that will never be.
i can try to make it better, but i know that's getting old for me.
it's old for me, it's over for me.
peace of mind, it's all i'm trying to find.
i don't speak, i can't meet your eyes.
i stare at walls and stare at floors and stare all through the night.
a downcast gaze, a downcast life.
i know i chose to live this way alone inside.
in time it gets better, that's what i'm told to believe.
you work hard to make it better, but what if this never leaves?
it never leaves, it's always with me.
don't tell me i can't change
i know what i have to do
but it's too hard when i'm burning bridges and burning up all the days.
the chances missed to make amends so i'm here to say
i am sorry for all my ways.

absolute terror field

feign sleep terrorized in a bed a mile wide
i got enough room for him and you and your body of lies
his breath on your breath, both breath on mine
i drive myself mad thinking where do you spend time
but i keep it on lock i keep it low
the silence and things unsaid, well hatred grows.
oh i can't wait until you come home
let's talk about what i know
i can't wait until you come home
don't come home.
feign sleep terrorized in a bed a mile wide
i got enough room for him and you and your body of lies
his hands in your hands both moving up your thighs
is that dress you wore for me filling up his eyes?
i can't keep it on lock i can't keep it low
no more things unsaid it's time to make it known.
lies do a funny thing
they make their way in and poison all my feelings.
it's time you take a seat
have a little chat about infidelity.

sexual healing part 2
04:02
|

|
oh you want to be debased?
i can do a lot of things really well but honey i exist on shame
how am i supposed to be the man you need
when i'm here dealing with i'm dealing with the same damn things.
i could be a man who
takes a stand who
takes a chance you
should just take a chance on me.
take a chance on me, help me believe i've got something more to give and i've got something more to be
than a victim of love, of hate, of pain, of rage, of those who took it all and sought to gain ownership of me
a heart now bruised
i was property to them so i'll be property for you.
it's sexual healing baby, part II.
i want to be debased
i will do anything you ask i'll take control and give it all away
a choice to not be free
but at least it came from me
i'm learning how to love and learning how to live and how to be
a victim of love, of hate, of pain, of rage, of those who took it all and sought to gain ownership of me
a heart now bruised
i was property to them so i'll be property for you.

lovers again
04:17
|

|
oh baby i know it's hard to part
but we tried, i tried
it wasn't enough to erase the pain
or take back and change the suffering we made
despite the tries and the changes made
i know it's enough to make us stay
our house in half from our broken ways
our broken hearts could never hold the weight
of our love.
time, it finds a way
to make us hurt, to make us worse
turning love to hate.
oh i pray
that someday soon we can learn to love again
oh baby we can learn to love again
oh we can learn to be loved again
through the nights spent in rage
those hallways that we held to block the way
i can still feel our love.
but our house is in half from our broken ways
our broken hearts could never hold the weight
of our love.
we can learn to be loved again
we can learn to be loved again.
we can learn to be lovers again.
we can learn to be lovers again.
we can learn to be lovers again.
we can learn to be lovers again.
we can learn to be lovers again.
we can learn to be lovers again.
