A cascade of a tone depicts my home (I revive)
Vibrant, the language is thrown (I see my eyes in utero)
Accountable, and life, from then, was known
The wave that crashes upon your throat

Your soul rests in a grainy picture
The earth and sun, they were a window
I’m not turning my back on you
‘Cause all of this is just temporary merry-go-rounds
Through all my progressions, you stood there by my side
Vulnerable in stark white, you look out at the sky
With those tentative eyes
You’re somewhere above the clouds
You’re somewhere above the clouds
It’ll catch you when you least expect it, but that’s how it’s gotta be
Caught in these psychosomatic apertures on the flier
Down and out, and I don’t know where I’ll go
When my time comes to fly (you’re above my head)
I hope I’ll be seeing your face
You’re somewhere above the clouds
You’re somewhere above the clouds

The flagship deity of the first world doesn’t have me convinced
I see for miles these trees and sand
From the deep blue sea
To my friends who roam the barnyard
I’ve got a question: how does this exist?
Hearts they pound
The reason unknown, but the sentiment's visible in bright lights
They march down these city streets everyday
How does this exist?
This should not exist
Why does this exist?
This should not exist (and I’m amazed)
Solace rests in the leaves of minds far too beautiful to bear the weight
We’re tearing it down, the world
I hope at the end of this maze lies a tranquil escape
Beyond our own imagination lies the true size of this place
The cosmos cannot be contained within the lines of a page
So in a hazy gaze, just before the slumber
I realize my own naivete and feel nothing but comfort

Just past these trees, I found a loving arrow
Pointing me towards the shore and the ice
I am the duck in between the earth and moon the split second before they collide
What mustn't I do?
One by one the bricks they crumble under circumstance
And one by one I build the city over water
Never let me be narrow
So I can tell the rest of the story
She’s been caught up in the functions of her body
Young and naive, impressionable
One by one the bricks they crumble under circumstance
And one by one I build the city over water
Never let me be narrow
So I can tell the rest of the story
Don’t ever let it slip out your head

I saw emotion flow out from your formation
I have a note with all your glowing attributes visible in flashing colors
I love you more than you could ever know
Follow me for one night
Let’s float away to that starlight oh-so far away
And to this day, I’m out of breath

Sat behind the wall between work and my eyes
A long walk against a throe
A long silence I wait to be broken
Unrequited words, my gaze had been frozen
The notion never seemed to grow beyond the guise of a concealed horizon
And yet the sun it shines so brightly
A falling of the leaves let my earnest devotion
To the figure from a dream, so close yet so far from my speech
Harbor evermore, I got caught in a storm that left my apathy to fall
And misery put up on the shelf
And here came the days
A mellow lie rests in frame
And all of the life it would save
For a moment I was kept awake
Up high in a crowded room, it was all that I needed to move
But in this day and age, you’re just words on a page
The blanket where I lay
Waiting patiently for the world to brake
As I sit in my room, juxtaposed by the view of my consolation
You are colorful, even in defense
I conjure up your poise and nature
In my mind and soul I cater
A battle never won is not how this will end
And here came the days
A mellow lie rests in frame
The ghost still lingers in a haze, and I’m left repenting my ways
Up high in a crowded room, it was all that I needed to move
But in this day and age, you’re just words on a page
The blanket where I lay
I recoil at the sight of the clock
A vivid image, yet so esoteric
And through my mind’s eye, I avoid the plight
‘Cause I know I’ll always have somewhere to run
Back to when I saw your eyes lock into mine
And play a melody that spoke to me deeper than words
A vivid image, yet so esoteric
A vivid image, yet so esoteric
Oh, but the question marks on your eyes
A mellow lie rests in the corner of my eye
A mellow lie rests in the corner of my eye
(A mellow lie, a mellow lie)
A mellow lie rests in the corner of my mind
You’ll always be in mind

A star went out the night a wish dissolved
Another day under the endless night sky
A defeated sun will not rise
It tried
He used to burn so bright
But now the alphabet has dampened him
The letters attacked with no hesitation
The sun was ripped to shreds
The dying star nears its final rest
It looks to me and says one last thing before it died
“I had it all, ripped away from me, ripped away from me
And I had it all, ripped away from me, ripped away from me”

Ideas swirl my head, then they leave my hands
Nothing is attained via chemicals
Sedentary haze in my grayscale eyes
Get another trophy and hit another wall
Who am I?
Nostalgic fantasies of the times I could see
“It’s all abstract”
You’re lying, where are the colors?
A brand new day, and nothing will change
Can you see the death inside the eyes of the high-functioning?
Woah, it’s all abstract

Inelastic (Set in Stone)

For a moment I thought the toys between my eyelids were something I, I charged
Not something I grow
With time, I sought to break apart the barrier between my two fists and its jaw
On the days that snow filled my iris
I fell down the stairwell for far too long (I fell down the stairwell)
I saw many things I did not wish to, wish to (I’m inelastic, I’m inelastic)

Harsh Wall

Hearts can knock you down, but don’t let them make you fall
They seldom glance upon thy cigarette to ask you why
Some say that spades are bound to walk atop a separate world
One day that might come true, woah
Don’t let this game push you around
You’ve got a harsh wall coming at your broken eyes
And the fall back to your teeth
You’ve got something running fast right towards your mind
But that’s something that you’ll probably never know
Clubs can’t stand when they want to
The world is crude in iridescence
Diamonds, oh you find a way to find amaze in everything
Don’t let this game push you around
You’ve got a harsh wall coming at your broken eyes
And the fall back to your teeth
You’ve got something running fast right towards your mind
But that’s something that you’ll probably never know
You’ve got a harsh wall coming at your eyes

I know a place of gardens
Tell me when apples grow
I know a place where we can stay
Take these in, shelter from the tide, and watch your right
Save the world, hold your hands up high, the red leaves the sky
I know one day you’ll be a beautiful animal inside the confines of the record player
You’ll look down at the world below in silence with a tear in your eyes
The genie emerges and time is all I ask for
Because one day when you grow old
The seeds you wasted will hit you like you’ve never been hit before
‘Cause the time, it matters, it matters, it matters
And finally catharsis
