One Way

One way to save your soul is to say
That it's just a phase and you're on your way - yeah, you're on your way
Well I hope it didn't hurt when you let go
Because I can't pretend there's somewhere else you'll go
It's a sinking ship and you're on a trip, there's nothing better - yeah, there's nothing better
Can't we just pretend that none of this is real
Because it makes more sense than to trust what they feel

The Fog

Late night
You're all alone
You ought to come inside
Inside my home
It's dark without a fire
You need to find some wood
A candle in the darkness
I never thought you could
I never thought you could
The next thing you know
From underneath
The fog came up
And took you away
And when I awoke
There was nothing left
A wasteland
And everything was dead
It's always the same
And no one ever learns
Everything you build
Returns to the earth
Returns to the earth
The next thing you know
From underneath
The fog came up
I pushed you in
Pushed you in

It Won't

Flirtatious talking
Leads us to walking
Back to your place
The look on your face
Your friends have their doubts
But I’ve figured out
That if we can kiss
They soon won’t exist
Come close
Nose to nose
Until I can feel
The fabric of your clothes
Talking in shadows
That soon disappear
Chasing the shapes
Wish you were here
To replace all the nothingness
Fill all the silences
Touch all the places
That want to deny all this
Love
I’ve had enough of
Leaves me let down
With no resolve
I'm hoping she'll call
But she won't
I'm hoping it works out
It won't, it won't, it won't

If I stay here any longer
Think I'm going to fall in love with you
And I know that's not the kind of thing
Your boyfriend would want me to do
But you're so pretty
And I'm such a fool
And everyone here knows it
What I'm going to do
'Cause every other guy
Around you now
Has that same look in their eye
That I do now
And I'm so sorry for me
Yeah
Thought that we could just be friends but
Now I know that's not the case
'Cause every time I go to sleep now
All I can see is your face
And it makes me smile
For just a little while
Until I remember
The situation I'm in
And this is all so perfect
This is all so just
My life has never been like this
This is all a first
And I'm sorry for being
So predictable
This is so predictable, yeah
Yeah, thought that we could just be friends but
I forgot how sweet you are
But you're not that into me
And I'll push my luck too far

He saw you last night
You can spare the lie
‘Cause I heard you laughing
As I was passing by
I don’t know how long
‘Cause I couldn’t bare to stay
So I left you behind
And went my own way
I know it’s true
Him and you
Well, what does he look like?
Does he treat you good?
Does he make you feel right?
The way I never could
Well, I’m sorry
But I just can’t shake the thought
You’d be better off with
Someone you forgot
Can’t you see
It’s me
You and me
I’m ready
You and me
Diastole

Healing

You always say the saddest things to me
If only you could see the person I can see
I know what you've been through and you think you've earned it
But I know who you are and I know you don't deserve it
There's always somewhere for you to stay
You're always too much a distance away
And if you get too drunk
You'd don't always have to settle for bottom bunk
Please don't hurt me
By hurting yourself
'Cause I feel you, I'll heal you
When you feel like there's no one else
