this is all I ask
take all those pictures of your doubt
and burn them
put that energy into the past
open your eyes wide
and try to see me
starving for a chance
you don't know what this means to me
all of the lifetimes all give the same
that's still the knife that cut through me
a soul
is your own path
through the flood you make your way
for as long as you can last
and if you have
hands to push you past
all the places you can't face
remember what you have
starving for a chance
you don't know what this means to me
all of the lifetimes all give the same
that's still the knife that cut through me
come on Bailey
starving for a chance
'cause you don't know what this means to me
all of the lifetimes all give the same
that's still the knife that cut through me
go

the machine is bigger than me
all because of you
the beautiful fuel
I'd have to scratch my face away
just to keep my name
all of this for more
more of the same
yeah
my jaw's been broken open
to swallow what you send
got to get it get out
got to get it got to get it got to get it get out
I'd rather bite your tongue bloody
to feel life again
got to get it get out
got to get it got to get it got to get it get out
the machine is stronger than me
because the weak
are more than a few
I fight against
I fight alone
I fight myself too often
too often I let get
yeah I had to let it go
come on now
my jaw's been broken open
to swallow what you send
got to get it get out
got to get it got to get it got to get it get out
I'd rather bite your tongue bloody
to feel life again
got to get it get out
got to get it got to get it got to get it get out

a mirror’s truth
the door that opened to light my steps
this is the first time I have realized
how far my home is
how deep my heart has fallen
like an angel from the south
only passion makes it easy
to bear the aftertaste of the sky
these hands hold my head high enough
to wear this mask for only you
this is for a mirror’s lies
all soothing as a locked door at an acid party
to find it was only fantasized
that I was heightened somewhere inside
a soul with no home
where I was the frame
and only the painted image remains
these hands hold my head high enough
to wear this mask for you
this is for you
Matt Bailey on guitar everybody
and take this with you
every night you close your eyes
and in your deepest pool of dreams
please remember this is for you
if you only knew

if you find yourself lost in a line
far away from mine
give yourself up
you find Lucy left in the sky
hiding out from the light
wake the fuck up
feel all the beats fall into time
so dissonant with mine
here's the plot
go
yeah
feel all the beats fall into time
dissonant with mine
this gentle descent
they watch you
slip through the wonderland
they bought you
this gentle descent
they watch you
slip through the wonderland
they bought you

where could we go to escape this place
I have a thought but it could be wrong
if anyone knew they'd surely be mute
and when stay hungry
it's what keeps us strong
where could we go those two steps ahead
left me sideways pulling my hair out in bed
while two steps beside further inside we found a friend
she's shining a light
through the doorway through the night
we push closer to a height
where we see everything without using our eyes
they're following me
so scared I can't see
we're lost
this maze has got me eyes wide
where could we go
where have we gone
through a doorway or somewhere beyond
they're following me
so scared I can't see
we're lost
this maze has got me eyes wide
they're following me
so scared I can't see
we're lost
this maze has got me eyes wide
eyes wide
eyes wide
eyes wide
eyes wide
eyes wide
eyes wide
eyes wide
eyes wide
eyes wide

I was thinking of you
in a room so empty and cold
that your skin seemed too perfect
for me to feel
still I touched your tattoo
it matched the vicious sensation
euphoria grants you while you're above
I hope what I dream will come true
you could realize that I am the one you adore
and someday will become
so close that we could share souls
so close that nothing in this world
could ever tear us apart
why can't you see me begging for you
I don't want to be alone
inside I feel all the things you don't
I was thinking of you
in a room so empty and cold
that your skin seemed too perfect
for me to feel
so close that we could share souls
it matched the vicious sensation
euphoria grants you while you're above
why can't you see me begging for you
I don't want to be alone
inside I feel all the things
no
