Morning's first light
Your first waking breath
The way to make it all seem ok
To be breathing in the world
The way it looks out your window
The way the light shines bright
In a way that will always make sense
Well, it never made much sense
Since the time that you walked away
You felt regret in how your hand's always shaking
Oh, let that rain fall down
So, let's bring it around
We all fall down...
Dusty sheets and window shades
You're making sense of your everyday
To put in an effort on a chance to leave
But I guess that I just should've stayed
Then waited 25 more years
I fall asleep listening to you breath
The way it looks
The way you shake
The way your hands
How they always shake
Do you wish rain would wash you away?
The sun's absence at night
Makes you think that I'm listening to
Those same sad songs
That you used to fall asleep to
And in someone else's arms
You're in someone else's arms, yeah?
The way the moon rises in your soul
Made it seem like we were still old
But it's true it's all a wash because
None of us ever become that bold
(We'll never be that bold)
Morning's first light
Your first waking breath
The way to wake to life
With folded sheets; a masquerade
A different way to hide your face
A ghost like charm in the dim twilight
I never understood...
With my ghost like charm in the dim twilight
I never understood why...
I guess, I'll never understand why
Your hand's always shake.

I found fact in art, if we were kids I'd cross my heart.
Lifeless thoughts cauterize the pain,
Making a bed for an early grave.
Just to stay awake and beg,
For eternal rest of common sense.
Digress to be the beggar you chose,
To gain access to your vote of confidence
Or was it the consequence.
A circle to find it's edge an endless ensemble
Of what was so goddamn memorable.
It takes away the days and turns it to ice.
It's cold as hell enough to plea to die
But there's a guesstimated plan.
Plans never work so I guess it just won't happen.

I never was the one who made mistakes
I never was the one man a gold to waste
I never was a tragedy waiting for suicidal rage
Yeah, I've made mistakes but they'll make my day
You were the pain that I wish could stay
Amphetamine joys on a weekend holiday
A place to roll your head around
The desert seems nice around this time
Missed the place of rhythm and rhyme
We're just a tragedy waiting to explode
You're just history that ain't been written yet
So, take it from the grapevine
Write it down and say you've heard it before
These same chords will be played by the same kids
As they write the same words in different form
Heart-attack, lullaby, set it to sleep
I made your grave and now you'll rest
They made your grace and it's built for you to rest

All these angels and demons
Fighting a war that won't break even.
I know you're wrestling with yours
Tosses and turns your soul to the core
I can tell you this I've been there too,
But those angels seem to rest when I'm with you
We all live and die
But that doesn't mean that we beings have to die alone.
I want to go out in ashes of my fondest memories
Of when I found hope. In when someone else's eyes met mine
To let me know that I finally found a place like home.
I made a deal with the devil for your eyes to meet mine
And that when I die I'll wish I'll die right by your side
The truth is being a ghost could never got me home
At least I know I'll never be alone
As long as you never ever let me go.
Darling this place is hell but it's better than being alone.
Darling this place is hell but you make it feel more like home.
We all live and die
But that doesn't mean that we beings have to die alone.
I want to go out in ashes of my fondest memories
Of when I found hope in when your eyes met mine
Because darling it reminded me that a ghost could feel at home

If i had a memoir, yeah it would read
Quite the contrary of your popular beliefs
I'd say these last handful of years
Almost brought me to these uncontrollable tears
And I've grown to know that I could be
Anything that I truly wanted to be
At my funeral read my eulogy
Say something cocky like you miss me
A prodigy, a loving father, a son
But we all know the hell I put my parents through
So, say something about the shit I did
When I had nothing lose.
Well maybe, I've been drinking far too much
My body well it's rejecting these lungs
My stomach is eating itself again
I guess, I found this to be my new best friend.
These hotels, bikinis and drugs
You said: "Man I couldn't ever ask for more"
In a place here with our dreams on...
(the floor)
At my funeral read my eulogy
Say something cocky like you miss me
A prodigy, a loving father, a son
But we all know the hell I put my parents through
So, say something about the shit we did
When we had nothing... (lose)
