hey baby
come home to me
i've been dreaming of you
for a hundred years
sick of waiting staying up to see
if i'll be yours
even though you're not mine
do you think i want too much?
is what i give you not enough?
i'm just a shape to move against in the dark
could you love me if i begged
give every piece to make you stay
you have me because you know i won't turn away
callin callin but you're out of reach
push the thought away still i wish you were here
you've really got a hold on me
all i've got is time why'd i let you burn mine
do you think i want too much?
is what i give you not enough?
i'm just a shape to move against in the dark
could you love me if i begged
give every piece to make you stay
you have me because you know i won't turn away

august in the city i'm mistaking ash for snow
lonely's got me thinkin i know better than i know
an unmet gaze across the bar
summer fades, it's gone too far
hoods propped up along the streets
they're ready for the show
time again attention paid can't get the pace to slow
i look for you in everyone
it's nothing new, what's done is done
balcony a couple drinks
our friends just through the door
confessing to eachother things
we wish we could ignore
thoughts the same, hardly spoken aloud
a no-win game, melt back into the crowd
bleary eyed and stumbling i am trying to get home
after all the trouble think it's better i'm alone
in the neon lights of the casino
unchanged sights, just a view from below
i've got nothing left
the skyline's a cherried end of a cigarette
keep pace the past but i can feel it coming to collect
where do you go?

steady hands don't give away
you're hiding something
all it takes is one little slip
to remember this shit
you've been trying to forget
this heat's enough to break a good man
this heat's enough to do it
everyone around here's just
one paycheck from oblivion
hasn't it always been this way?
doesn't it all shake out the same?
everything that ever was
is everything that is to come
same mistake made only twice
should count for something
head down in surrender again
lay claim to all you've tried to resist
i always thought i'd be a good man
i always thought that i could do
all i've got is the sun in my eyes
all i've got is the sun in my eyes
hasn't it always been this way?
doesn't it all shake out the same?
everything that ever was
is everything that is to come

blessed blessed oblivion
scratched across a forearm
despite your best
what happens next
is not a hill to die on
we've all seen the prophecy
so suddenly appears
stretched beneath the highway
written on the bridges piers
how fallible the memory
of time and times before
easily forgotten
or spit out on the floor
liquid dreams run their gamut
not to admit defeat
you should've kept your mouth shut
coulda saved you from the heat
the center cannot hold
structure yields to chaos
body remembers everything
even if there's nothing learned
so go ahead
go on to bed
tomorrow's a bridge to burn
fire rage and fill the sky
til smoke eclipse the stars
you think you're back to where you're from
but you're just where you are
paint is falling from the walls
the house is still expanding
the noises that you hear are all
the softenings of landings
consider what's before you
as it considers you
homogeny
the final key
there'll never be anything new
the center cannot hold
structure yields to chaos
the center cannot hold
structure yields to chaos
talk forever naturally
til time folds into space
saying nothing loudly
desperate to keep pace
they'll kiss you once
then kiss you twice
then leave you for another
tighten that belt up a loop
there's only sleep for supper
maybe it's humidity
or plastic in my brain
but i'm so fucking bored
it's driving me insane
the center cannot hold
structure yields to chaos
