Back When We Were Kings

You said
You had it down to a science
I didn't try to deny it
But if left me cold, cold, cold
I stood
I was looking at numbers
I tried to change my color
But I'm too old, old, old
Still though
I've got nothing but patience
And an ego that's waiting
To move on, on, on
It stays
Hiding in all the memories
Some kind of tender energy
That's all gone
[Chorus]
And I know, and I know, and I know
That it's always the simple things
And I know, and I know, and I know
You've got me lost around the edges of some kind of familiar taste
And I know, and I know, and I know
You loved me back when we were kings
And I know, and I know, and I know
Those days were happy but it feels like the memories have all been erased
Those days were happy but it feels like the memories have all been erased
In a moments of pressure
Chalk it up displeasure
And you move on, on, on
Still though
I was looking at figures
Trying to get the picture
But you moved on, on, on
[Chorus]

Teeth Dreams

I've been dreaming that I can't find any doors in my house
That all the windows disappeared and I had been locked out
I've been dreaming that I had someone else's teeth in my mouth
And they all start to fall out
They start to fall out
[Pre-Chorus]
Oooooooh
These memories I keep
Don't speak to me the way you do
[Chorus]
Everything was better
When we dreamt about our lives together
I can't sleep
When everything is falling down
We know we should but couldn't
Even if we could, we wouldn't
And now I can't sleep
Because I've been having teeth dreams
I've been dreaming of bumping into you and what I would say
I've been dreaming of an asteroid that ends the human race
I've been dreaming of your teeth starting to decay
I've been dreaming that I can't dream so I just stay awake
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

Self Control
04:45

|
Your skin is brittle like black magma left to breathe
Your skin is thin, that ego never left at ease
Your skin is tyrant reptile, survival alone
Your skin was never meant to call that body home
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hate to say I lost my self control
To say I know when I don't know
Your eyes are passing silence, drifting in their sleep
Your eyes are silent hatred, I know they've seen that deep
Your eyes are beautiful, I know they don't believe
Your eyes were never meant to help that body see
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
And if you tire of your love then let me go
You gotta stand up on your own two feet
And if you tire of your life then don't let go
Promise me, remember breathe
[Chorus]

(This one's about how free will is an illusion)
My personality
Doesn't belong to me
I'm part of something else that I simply can't control
All these thoughts I know
They are not my own
I give them to you to try to make me something whole
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't see you
I'm just coming in, coming out
[Chorus]
Why do you always have to find it obscene?
That somebody else could be living their dreams
Somebody else, completely unseen
Or something is hurting not like you and me
Whatever you take from the ground and the sky
We'll say our prayers when we say our goodbyes
I'll let you be you if you leave mine to me
Always unclean, I was born green
That I do exists
I cannot resist
And I cannot discern my shape from my thoughts alone
So I play my part
Try to have a heart
Try to have something before my age starts to show
[Pre-Chorus]

King of Holy Irregulars
01:58
|

|
You stood
King of holy irregulars
Sending to calls to your messengers
That you're gone, gone, gone, gone
I saw
Your quite face on a video
You were numb and you didn't know
What was going on, on, on, on
Still now
Is the place where you used to be
I know you won't remember me
When you go, go, go, go
I'll stay
Cuz there's nowhere else for me
Your teeth are falling around me
But you'll never know, know, know, know
Ooooooh
Ooooooh
Ooooooh

You woke up like a hurricane
You had me marching to the beat of your drum
Stopped the blood rushing through my veins
And you filled them til I was numb
You were caught up in the wanderlust
With your hue spinning round and round
I've never seen anything so bright
And I awoke to that lovely sound
[Chorus]
You make that breathless, breakfast freshness with paprika and yams
Kickin' Costa Rica indica like 2010
I can always find some faith
When you measure to the milligram
You make that breathless, breakfast freshness with bananas and booze
Kickin' Serbian sativa like it's 2002
I can always find some faith
When you make me feel like I'm brand new
