Say You Are

Speak as you do
Do as you speak
Collaborate forms don't get caught tongue in cheek
It's easier said
And hardest to do
Confusing ideas are pulling out you
And you don't know what you're doing 'cause
You, because
You are not what you say you are (x2)
Who the hell do you think you are, 'cause
You are not, you are not what you say you are (what you are (x2))
Illusions are nice, and lies have appeal
But reality's real and now you can't conceal
That you're fucked up at best and you're going down now
And it's like waiting for the sun to rise
Rise up in your blackest eyes
You know it won't happen, but you hope, but it won't
Because
You are not what you say you are (x2)
Who the hell do you think you are, 'cause
You are not, you are not what you say you are (what you are (x2))
You are not, you are not what you say you are (x3)
You are what you are
You are not (x10)
No
You are not what you say you are (x2)
Who the hell do you think you are, 'cause
You are not, you are not what you say you are (what you are (x2))
What you say you are (x3)
You are not, you're a fucking piece of shit that's what you are

Waiting

So here we stand in no man's land
I feel so distant from where we were before
So much trapped in this one year
And there's always so much more
A constant uphill battle
But I'm...waiting, waiting
Waiting to see what tomorrow will bring,
Waiting, waiting
So we find the path of least resistance
Is it like a slow motion warning?
Why do we take the path of least resistance?
So don't make me out to be a fool,
You know I satiate and keep your soul full
Of every pleasure felt by the flesh
I've got you drowning inside this place where only angels sing
This all feels so familiar,
I've done this all before.
Yea, this all looks exactly the same,
And I... I've been distracted by the way you move and this game,
So here we find ourselves again
Yes, we're...waiting, waiting
Waiting to see what tomorrow will bring,
Waiting, waiting
So we find the path of least resistance,
Is it like a slow motion warning?
Why do we take the path of least resistance?
So don't make me out to be a fool
You know I satiate and keep your soul full
of every pleasure felt by the flesh
We've got each other drowning in this place where only angels sing
We are waiting, we are waiting

Hope, the Drug

Light a candle,
Face the Sun and tell yourself this all will be okay
Never mind the faded future
We paint it with the brush strokes of the past,
We sit and settle on...
Hope, the drug is running rampant
Through the veins and in the brain
The dopamine rewards us with a smile
This overreaching and stifled preaching
claims to bring us to our knees,
promising a sweet salvation
If ignorance is bliss then why aren't we happy?
Born into this we follow blindly,
Finding comfort in the easy truth
It lulls us into this fake security,
This magic medicine,
Stronger than love
We swallow down, we swallow down...
Hope, the drug is running rampant
Through the veins and in the brain
The dopamine rewards us with a smile
This overreaching and stifled preaching
Claims to bring us to our knees,
Promising a sweet salvation
If ignorance is bliss then why aren't we happy?
Between the dusk and the dawn,
We fall into the fear of who we are when no one's watching
Embrace the darkest part and only then will we be free
Hope, the drug is running rampant
Through the veins and in the brain
The dopamine rewards us with a smile
This overreaching and stifled preaching,
Claims to bring us to our knees,
Promising a sweet salvation
If ignorance is bliss...
if ignorance is bliss...
If ignorance is bliss, if ignorance is bliss
If ignorance is bliss then why aren't we happy?

Things are always good until they're not
'Till they suck, what the fuck do we do now
Isn't this something we've already been through?
There's nothing left for us to do
It's been passed down and broken
It's been twisted and tried
In too many ways, I'm finding these days that
People will always fool you
And it's got me going down, going down, going down
Falling hard
It's got me runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round
Screamin' loud
And I don't know, I don't know what to do (x2)
It always seems that the best things never last
They bloom to quick and pass by way to fast
It's a sad reality, if we just open our hearts then we could see, ya
That we're passed down and broken, ya we're twisted and tried
In too many ways, I'm finding these days that
People will always fool you
And it's got me going down, going down, going down
Falling hard
It's got me runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round
Screamin' loud
And I don't know, I don't know what to do (x2)
So, what do we do now?
Are we cowards, or do we find a way somehow?
Where are we going? Where are we going now?
I can see it, I can taste it, I can feel, feel it now ya
'Cause it's got me going down, going down, going down
Falling hard
And it's got me runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round
Screamin' loud
And I don't know, I don't know what to do (x2)
