Patience is fading for my longest love.
You keep changing into what I'm scared of.
I want to follow, but you make it hard.
I don't want to go, but you keep pushing, pushing us apart.
When I go left you go right.
I don't want to fight.
You know what's best and what's right.
When I go left you go right!
I've lived with you in awe of your beauty,
Charmed by you and your sincerity.
But underneath the skin, your hate is feeding.
You can't keep it in, the lies are bleeding.
When I go left you go right.
How do you sleep at night?
You know what's best and what's right.
When I go left you go right!

Bad for Me
03:24
|

My brain knows what I need, but my heart gets in the way.
I feel I have to justify my actions every day.
Then I hear you, I don't know what to do,
Because I know that love and free, and I think you would be bad for me.
You, you, you would be bad for me.
You, you, you would be bad for me.
So I'll see you in my dreams.
Yeah I'll see you in my dreams.
So I'll see you in my dreams.
Yeah I'll see you in my dreams.
I'm trying to do this thing called being responsible.
But my glass looks half-empty even though I know it's full.
Then I see you and imagine the things we could do.
I wish sometimes that I were free even though I know you'd be bad for me.
You, you, you would be bad for me.
You, you, you would be bad for me.
So I'll see you in my dreams.
Yeah I'll see you in my dreams.
So I'll see you in my dreams.
Yeah I'll see you in my dreams.

Hurricane
03:01

The wind is pulling
The wind is pulling
Hurricane
Building around you
Can’t fight against the wind
Suffocating
Don’t fight
Be lifted to the light
Feel the change in you
You can’t go back again
Hurricane
Building around you
Can’t fight against the wind
Suffocating
The wind is pulling
The wind is pulling
You are made new
You are made new
In the eye of the hurricane
In the eye of the hurricane

Marla

Ocean waves crash over medical waste
I'd give her up, but I'm addicted to her taste
Insidious aroma of the acrid breeze
Mind is caught in such a beautiful disease
You don't know
You don't know her
You don't know her like I
You don't know her like I don't know her
I don't know her
Know her
Know her
Know her
Kisses on fingertips, rubber and plastic
Unsteady waters make surfing fantastic
No one can bring her down
She wants to hold me down
Love her to bring me down
Love her until I drown
So much depends on fish net and safety pin
Follow along, just keep all your fellings in
Usher me into your plan of disaster
Feel myself falling, faster and faster
You don't know
You don't know her
You don't know her like I
You don't know her like I don't know her
I don't know her
Know her
Know her
Know her
No one can bring her down
She wants to hold me down
Love her to bring me down
Love her until I drown

False Flag
02:53
|

So you think you found the one
And now you’re on the run
How long can you flee?
Do you think you can be free,
In the shadow of me,
In the shadow of me?
You have a daughter and a son.
The adventure lost its fun.
Will you know who you can trust?
Or will your blood turn to rust,
In the shadow of us,
In the shadow of us
I know people can change.
Why would I think you’re strange?
The future is what we make
With every promise that we break.
Another vow has come undone.
How much longer can you run?
Do you think that you can win
Your losing battle with sin;
the shadow that’s within,
the shadow that’s within?
I know people can change.
Why would I think you’re strange?
The future is what we make
With every promise that we break.

Soil

Lay back,
be comfortable
Why prolong the inevitable?
But isn’t that all life is?
Isn’t that all life is anyway?
Live like a fire
Burn with desire
I won’t aspire
To your false elite
In your garden,
In your garden of peace
Call yourself royal
And rip out the weed
Replace the soil
Then you plant the seed
Then you plant the seed
I won’t be a child
Peaceful and mild
My roots run wild
Through your false elite
In your garden,
In your garden of peace
