You're speaking in tongues
Wide awake
Deciphering a message
From me
See your cold dead eyes
Wide awake
They hover over me
While i sleep
Ive been dreaming in black and white
I cant believe youve got such delicate eyes
Ive been dreaming in black and white
Tongue tied and all i can see is you
Ive been dreaming in black and white
All youve said is in disgusting disguise
Ive been dreaming in black and white
Roped up in these sick lies
Wide awake
Over me
Over you

Flash back to sunsets in the yard
Memories of late night chills
Grabbing sweaters to fight the
Bugs and cold bites from the wind
It all goes back where it used to be
Im Digging deep find my heart
I havent slept a wink in weeks
Longing for another sliver of light to shine before i go
I dont want to die the martyr
I dont want to die alone
I dont want to die a villain
I dont want to die at all
Then those sunsets turn to black
Im taken back to present day
I wish id been prepared for what happened
That day from August spent

Dance around the kitchen, one more time
Dance around the living room, one last time
Youre a fairy tale, scarred for life
Come a little closer, one more time
You're moving down to Florida, and Ill be fine
While I'm still here in Elgin, biding my time
Moving down to Florida, and it hurts this time
While I'm still here in Elgin, I'm up all night
Another fifth of Vodka, 10 more beers
Another night of poetry, spelled out so nice
Youre a natural wonder, scarred for life
Come a little closer, one more time

Almost There

Lately ive been waking up with new clothes and no memories
Lately ive been having bad thoughts, but ive drowned them in cans of beer
Lately ive had the strength to believe but no willpower to back it up
Lately ive been reading too much into signs i shouldnt know how to read at all
And im almost there, but your hand seems to high to reach
Ill make an attempt to right my wrongs but i cant just swallow my pride
