Doobius 04:23
lyrics

We always had your back when somebody cried... Bullshit on all your fantastic designs But it gets harder with each time… To cover your tracks, blur the lines The stories too good to be true We want so much to believe you And never would I say That you should fade away If you could just be real we might be Tight still You can try, but you can never hide your dubious side Got ‘em all convinced that you're a prince You’re living a lie You can try, but you can never hide your dubious side Got ‘em all convinced that you're a prince You’re living a lie… a lie Remember back when you cried- I let you down… To anyone and everyone around But never once did you tell me Shut me out passive aggressively How’m I supposed to make things right When you refuse to even fight And never would I say That you should fade away If you could just be real we might be Tight still You can try, but you can never hide your dubious side Got ‘em all convinced that you're a prince You’re living a lie You can try, but you can never hide your dubious side Got ‘em all convinced that you're a prince You’re living a lie… How’m I supposed to make things right When you refuse to even fight And never would I say that you should fade away If you could just be real we might be tight still

My Time 03:22
lyrics

Nothing’s quite as dark as a bright, sunny day Warm is everywhere but the cold spot I lay Take my breath away... Take my breath away... Take my breath away… I lay back with my eyes wide open Staring at the sky, bluer than your eyes I lay back with my eyes wide open Staring at the sky, bluer than your eyes Try to soak the light up before it all fades Flashes of the past fuse and form your face (You) take my breath away Take my breath away... Take my breath away… I lay back with my eyes wide open Staring at the sky, bluer than your eyes I lay back with my eyes wide open Staring at the sky, bluer than your eyes And the dragonflies say it’s my time My time...

Flight 03:22
lyrics

Set fire to the heavens above No command of a God of love So many mouths to feed That’s cause enough for me to bleed Trade Heaven eternal for a fiery inferno Punish the wicked Consequence is meaningless The price of my actions: more babies in caskets Say what you want Nothing can keep Can keep me from All that is mine Set fire to the heavens above No command of a God of love So many mouths to feed That’s cause enough for me to bleed Trade Heaven eternal for a fiery inferno Punish the wicked Consequence is meaningless The price of my actions: more babies in caskets Say what you want Nothing can keep Can keep me from All that is mine Say what you want, nothing can keep me from taking flight Keeping your feet on the ground is fine for those afraid to even try High above in holy light Nothing for me in this life Set fire to the heavens above No command of a God of love

Heirlooms 04:46
lyrics

These four walls stood Stood for something you can never leave behind Behind the eyes of sadness We poured over A lifetime of sentiments and collectables Dividing up these precious treasures And I never dreamed these things would mean anything to me You can’t take them with, so you leave behind what you love It’s understood, what might seem like knick knacks to me Encapsulated your dreams So I’ll try to find the beauty of your smile In each trinket I keep And I never dreamed these things would mean anything to me You can’t take them with, so you leave behind what you love And I never dreamed… I may not have much, but these amulets make me feel strong Take what you want, just remember me when I’m gone I may not have much, but these amulets make me feel strong Take what you want, just remember me Isn’t it nice, like sugar and spice Everything that a girl could need Long pearls, short hair for girls Fringe down to my knees Lovely ladies lined in pink and gold we called a cameo Tiny pictures in black and white we called a tin-type I may not have much, but these amulets make me feel strong Take what you want, just remember me when I’m gone I may not have much, but these amulets make me feel strong Take what you want, just remember me Remember me Remember me

Solitary 03:02
lyrics

Well, it’s such an old cliche but I guess it’s true They say that you never know what you have ‘til it’s gone It gets hard to hold on When the only way is to let you walk away And I know you’re worth the fight But, sometimes I wonder if I might be better off alone And yes, I know I can be cold And colder still the more the distance grows Is it all just in my head? Self-made misery and dread Tell myself to keep the faith, but sometimes I still wonder… Now I know - no, it’s not the same You never could let go Say you’ve gone nowhere, that you still care But when I reach for you, you’re just not there And I can’t wait around for you to see I’m right here So what does it mean to love? To accept the things that you can never change And be glad you have enough Of the pieces that do seem to fit in place But that’s easier said than done When my stories start to run Tell myself to keep the faith, but sometimes I still wonder… Now I know - no, it’s not the same You never could let go Say you’ve gone nowhere, that you still care But when I reach for you- You’re just not there And I can’t wait… I can’t wait No, don’t go! Now I take it back, you can’t just walk away Say you’ve gone nowhere, that you still care And when I reach for you- just be there Hear through my frightened words and know that I’m right here

Ghosts of Hollywood 03:43
lyrics
buy track
We set out to find the places tourists dare not stand in line Off the beaten path, a putrescence palm trees cannot hide All the glamour, all the murder All the glitz and all the shame Feels electric like a pulse that’s pounding in her dirty veins As I raise the peat to my lips, an unseen voice says, “take a sip” It’s gonna be a long, long night The party’s on the other side And if you catch a glimpse, don’t look into their eyes The ghosts of Hollywood will never die Shelly knew them all by name An index of forgotten fame A toothless smile to hide the pain The would-be starlet's silent shame Muddled like a lime within the gin Power House - the altar for confessing sins Down I go again, as you implore To the spirits - follow the floor And it’s gonna be a long, long night The party’s on the other side And if you catch a glimpse, don’t look into their eyes The ghosts of Hollywood will never die All the glamour, all the murder All the glitz and all the shame Feels electric like a pulse that’s pounding in her dirty veins As I raise the peat to my lips, an unseen voice says, “take a sip” It’s gonna be a long, long night The party’s on the other side And if you catch a glimpse, don’t look into their eyes The ghosts of Hollywood will never die The ghosts of Hollywood are on your side tonight The ghosts of Hollywood are on your side They’re on your side / It’s gonna be a long, long night

The Want 06:11
lyrics

I feel like I’m walking on a cloud Ever since you’ve been around A smile or a word could change my day It’s been years since I’ve felt this way You could’ve stepped right out of my dreams Opened doors & everything A part of me I thought must’ve died Ooh, baby, you brought back to life But what are these? The words I’m saying don’t sound like me Awake from the dream Lined eyes reading reality Oh, forget it Never mind Thought I’d try, but forget it Ever after is not my style It’s pathetic Who am I kidding, I’ll never get it What I want is the want And now it’s been longer than you’d think Make rules hard for me to keep I guess I should count myself lucky You find broken things interesting It’s funny, you’d think I would be fine Silently by your side With all of the many times I’ve lied A shadow hiding in the light But will I forever be kissing a mystery? The hero always must mask his true identity Oh, forget it Never mind Thought I’d try, but forget it Ever after is not my style It’s pathetic Who am I kidding, I’ll never get it What I want is the want

The fairest of them all, you have so many fooled Red hot flames give way to bitter, freezing cold Pretty on the outside when you’re feeling good The monster that’s within revealed in party mode So step into the light, my dear Your shadows can’t protect you here No glitter skin romanticising evil souls No liquid mass displaced could ever fill your holes Burn up in the light, sometimes I wish you would Skin so soft and fair, I know it probably could So step into the light, my dear Your shadows can’t protect you here Mirror, who is the fairest to me? Well, go find her and split the truth from the fallacy Mirror, who is the fairest to me? Well, go find her and rip the beast from the girl I know you’ll never be The candy house you built to lure naive ones in Resulting tooth decay from all your saccharine sin I’ll leave behind the stories for the real world The feeble fable never was a real girl So step into the light, my dear Your shadows can’t protect you here You say that you’re afraid, of what - I’ve never understood. It feels like just more trailer glamour You are not real, you are fairy tale Mirror, who is the fairest to me? Well, go find her and split the truth from the fallacy Mirror, who is the fairest to me? Well, go find her and rip the beast from the girl I know you’ll never be The girl I know you’ll never be The girl I know you’ll never be
