Papier-Mâché

Papier-Mâché
Burning beds take a rest and ignore us
We’re dreaming a new
We’re Papier-Mâché
Sleeping sound with no ground left below us
Something in the room
Call it Papier-Mâché
You look better but better is broken
One together from two
with Papier-Mâché
Patiently I waited until I saw the light come on
It was inviting
Trembling I came to the door
They sold my ticket home
Nothing surprising
Fight the faceless
Force the focus
Time is timeless
Breathe for breathless
Shaming shameless
Grace for graceless
Save the hopeless
One and one and one
become one
Someone fell from up high just to warn us
If we should continue
We need Papier-Mâché
Before my final breath was broke
She looked into my eyes and spoke
The sky won’t save you
When you’re not safe at all
No, you’re not safe at all

Look How Far We've Come

Look How Far We’ve Come
Will you write me off?
When words are not enough
Soft light burning up
Will you turn if off?
We were something
We were something
something else
Lose the battle
Look how fast you run
Drop the hammer
Look how far we’ve come
Look how far we’ve come
No it’s no one’s fault
Summer slipped to fall
When seasons turn too cold
Love forgets us all
We were something
We were something
something else
Lose the battle
Look how fast you run
Drop the hammer
Look how far we’ve come
Look how far we’ve come
Did you find a safe getaway
You will find a safe getaway
Lose the battle
Look how fast you run
Nothing matters
Look how far we’ve come
Look how far we’ve come

Ever After

Ever After
Don’t be so foolish man
With the beating heart that’s in your hand
Too much for you to understand
So keep it safe until you can
Somethings gotta give
Here’s to us
All of these days roll in together
All of these days can feel like, ever after
Forget your sunny morning
Your happy face
All of these days rollin together
This too shall pass
It can never last, ever after
Forget your gloomy mourning
Your sad face
Let us stand and stare in wonder
This place can be so savage man
It doesn’t care about your plan
Feels like you’re running in the sand
Will you let it go or take a stand?
All of these days roll in together
All of these days can feel like, ever after
Forget your sunny morning
Your happy face
All of these days rollin together
This too shall pass
It can never last, ever after
(ever after fairytale tonight)
Forget your gloomy mourning
Your sad face
Let us stand and stare in wonder
Why do they say prepare for the worst
Hope for the best
Maybe they just have the wrong perspective
Maybe
All of these days roll in together
All of these days can feel like, ever after
Forget your gloomy mourning
Your happy face
All of these days rollin together
This too shall pass
It can never last, ever after
Forget your sunny morning
Your sad face
Let us stand and stare in wonder

The Night Before

The Night Before
I shot my mouth off the night before
Like a beast whose cage has a broken door
Yes, it’s true
It’s true
It’s true
On a mission to race the sun
Full tank engine twenty-one
Such a fool
A fool
A fool
Someone gave me a four-leaf clover
I looked both ways threw it over my shoulder
I stayed for the witching hour
The best time for growing flowers
I shot my mouth off the night before
Like a tractor across a concrete floor
Yes, it’s true
It’s true
It’s true
Led the horses to the run
Left the gate open thirty-one
Such a fool
A fool
A fool
Every time I swing and miss
I can’t back down I can’t resist
Cause I’m dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
Licking blades and kissing guns
Yes I’m dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
Licking blades and kissing guns
Another week another forty hours
Another cheap shot calling me coward
Someone gave me a four-leaf clover
And now I have to look over my shoulder
Every time I swing and miss
I can’t back down I can’t resist
Cause I’m dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
Licking blades and kissing guns
Yes I’m dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
Licking blades and kissing guns
Another week another forty hours
Another cheap shot calling me coward
I shot my mouth off the night before
I should’ve quit but I wanted more
Yes, it’s true
It’s true
It’s true
Time moves quick when you’re having fun
But the joke’s on you, you’re forty-one
Such a fool
A fool
For you

Dora Flood
Hello Miss Dora Flood
Would you please pour me something good
Sitting here is weird
It’s been too long
It feel good to be home
Shoebox blues from candy crush
Did what’s her name marry what’s his fuck
Feels the same
So strange
It’s changed so much
The past has passed the buck
So much to see
So much work
So much she’s with another jerk
All the feels are really catching up
It’s sucks feeling stuck
In Dora Flood I do trust
Cause she’s seen us at our worst
Judge and jury
Love, lost and lust
My shady lady luck
The grown are growing up
With shady lady luck
There are no roads
Left here to fake
Keep on your toes
What ever it takes
Time can be cruel
And time will not wait
Fall through the cracks
Repeat or replace
Here’s to the ones
That see all the brake
Here’s to the ones
That learn from mistakes
Here’s to the ones
That have lost their way
I hope you find your way
The stories that we will tell

Better Than This

Better Than This
The coffee’s paid for
The tables have turned
A role in reverse
Even the waitress knows what’s going on
I know you and you’re better than this
I know you and you’re better than this
Can you look at my face?
Has the cat got your tongue?
Say what you need to say
We don’t lie
We don’t run
Have you made up your mind?
Is there a fork in the road?
We can all use more time
But no-one likes to be left on hold
I know you and you’re better than this
I know you and you’re better than this
Guess I should go
One last hurrah
One last ride home
One last kiss
One last goodbye
Lay it down
