I’m stressed out
Feral
I can’t
Make a sound
Breathe in
Fall out
Green Grass
White fence
Plastic
Romance
This house
Burns down
One day
I’ll wait for you
I’ll find the truth
Your lipstick too
One day
I’ll wait till the skies are blue
Oh, one day
I’ll wait, I’ll wait for you
Oh, one day
I’ll wait
I’ll wait for you
I’ll wait for you
I’ll wait for you
I’ll wait for you...

DEAD DANCE:
*instrumental*
THE STRUGGLE:
Don't stare at me like that
I'm just here to dance
Like we would when we were younger
A true long lost romance
The strobe ligths
Paint us in time
Look into my eyes
Tell me that you're mine...
THE PRESSURE:
You said I don't know
I said shut your mouth
I can't see myself
Being around anyone else
I can tell when you're lying
Why can't you just play fair
I know when I don't sleep
I turn into a different person
With different eyes
And fears
Don't believe them
I need your time
Don't run
Don't run
Don't run
Don't run...

THE SUN:
*Instrumental*
WAR:
And it's war on these streets
Trenches in my mind are diseased
My lungs are filled with gasoline
This crucifixion, this sac religion
Just follow my lead
Things just aren't what they seem
This nuclear reality
It's far too cryptic
Apocalyptic
And I keep marching
And I keep leading
And I keep hurting
And I keep breathing
And I keep running
And I keep running
And I keep...
I DON'T WANT TO LOVE YOU ANYMORE:
I don't want to love you anymore
Love you more
I don't want to feel this anymore
Feel your love in my life
It hurts so real...
EVERYBODY'S BORING:
Cuz everybody's boring
Everyone else is boring, boring, boring
Why can't you be boring, boring, boring
Everything is boring, boring to me
Look outside your fucking window...

Scene iv: Bug on a Wall

CAMPFIRE SONG:
Maybe she has matured somehow
But that’s irrational
Yeah it's laughable
Maybe she's just happy again
Unpredictable
That's just how it goes
And this is my campfire song
If everyone around me would just sing a long
Like it’s the Fourth of July
And I’m feeling alive
And it’s the end of the night...
BUG ON A WALL:
If I were a bug on the wall of your skull
I would be afraid of how fast I would fall
From your deepest desires
They're all I inquire
Call me a try hard
Well at least I tried harder
If I was the edge of the cliff that you jumped off
I would grow a tree for you to climb up
But there’s no point in trying
The fake story climax
Call me a stranger
Well at least I’m still something...
AFTER THE SHOW:
After the show we all got high
I lost my breath and had to step outside
The rain was setting in just fine
I start to pace in circles
Killing time
If I leave right now
Could I see somehow
That everything is change
And nothing stays the same
Maybe there's a way out...
GUILT:
Hold on
Run as fast as you can
I'm on your side
I'm on your side
I’m not like him
No, i’m just like him
If that’s what you want
I’m on your side
I wear guilt and you wear pain
When I think of those days...

There’s a ghost upon a hill
That I’m not supposed to talk about
It might freak the children out
Anything but the children
Cuz they are the future
Bloody carcus on the street
Don’t you love your country now
Your son’s supposed to make you proud
Cuz everyone’s a winner
But we could be thinner
Don’t believe in everything you read
Nothing really matters when you’re old like me
23, with no degree
The end i fear
Is such a shitty friend
He never had my back
And she never left my head
Listen to the sun
She loves me half the time
But that is somewhat better than only in my mind
I don’t know anyone
Who answers their door at night
With love
Without love...

Cold
Dancing as you're told
Rhythm of the alcohol
Pain sits
In the churches of the night
The bell rings faint and quiet
And she's gone...
