Faith. Love.

Why do we always assume
The things that we say are not true?
Why do we cling to the touch?
We do it in faith and love.
Yeah, we do it in faith and love.

You (ft. Ruthie Thorne)

She walks on eggshells made from shards of her broken heart, and her plastic smile
And the mask she's wearing is causing her to break out, when she makes out, with the fake crowd
Just, just listen to me, just, just listen to me, cause the problem with this scene
Is that i've been here before, and everybody's got a reason why they're hiding right behind
crafted identities
Looking for better days, searching for sunlight...and it seems impossible
(I've been looking for some better days with sunlight)
Seeking out honesty might be a suicide attempt but i'll take my chance
(Seeking honesty might turn out to be suicide)
Because nothing could be scarier than lifting up that barrier
And finding you the real, real, you isn't you
He walks with head held high, but he's broken down inside...Porcelain doll is your middle name
It's a common habit for you to always bend before you break
Just, just listen to me, just, just listen to me, cuz the problem with this dream
Is that one day you'll be suddenly forced to face the ugly facts, the ugly facts of your
crafted identity
And I wish I could see your face, your face
And I wish I could know your name, your name

I saw the future, the future looked my way
I asked how ya doing, but he had nothing to say
This is the problem with the way things are:
I can't tell if i'm blind or if i'm in the dark
(But don't set a spark)?
Am I fading into the black?
It's hard to find direction, when you're only looking back
Am I falling through the cracks?
It's hard to reach the surface with this weight around your chest
But i'll find my rest...
Cuz i'll pack my bags and head for the city lights
I don't where i'm going, but i'm feeling just fine
I'll pitch my tent and sleep throughout the night
Oh God, please God, just give me a sign
Or tow me a line tonight
I saw a giant, the giant stared me down
I asked how's the weather but I got lost in the sound
This is the problem with the world I see
It's a battle to be king, and it's fought constantly
(Will I find relief)?
In retrospect, I don't regret
The decisions I made in time
It'll be okay, You'll always light the way
As I fall more in love with You, with You
Am I fading into the black?

I met her on the subway
And as anyone could tell you
It's only in the movies you find love upon a train
I stopped at all the exits
In the hopes that I would find you
Now riding home in solitude has never felt the same
And every time I call her up I seem to lose my voice
And underneath the ground the shaky signal turns to noise
I tried my best to search for her despite the losing chance
I know it's silly, but I was hoping for romance
I watched her coming down just like a raindrop from the distance
She'd hit the ground and break and take path of least resistance
Well I wish I knew the words to say (I think about what could have been)
Cuz I was hardly listening (My heart is slowly twisting)
If only you and I, if only you and I got off at the same place
I saw you in the corner
stealing glances by the window
If I returned the favor, I would only do you wrong
The odds of us uniting
are a slim to none confession
You'll always be a stranger, and that's why I sing this song
The 9-5, the day-to-day will be the death of me
All it would've taken was a smile to set me free
I tried my best to search for him despite the losing chance
I know it's silly, but even I was hoping for romance

If I say i'm unstable will you let me go?
If I open my mouth, will my arrogance show?
If I take you too lightly, will you take offense?
If I give you my all, will you give me a second chance?
Clouds are forming in the atmosphere
And I will slowly, slowly disappear
Thunder, lightning, raining down on me
It's a hurricane you're turning out to be
If you don't want me to stay here right by your side
Why don't you say so? Why don't you say so?
I can't find any shelter, can't find any light
I'm on my own now, i'm on my own now
And I can't understand you, can't figure you out
It's like you are the puzzle, that I don't fit into
The stories that claim you're the one that I need
Are the same as the fairy tales that I read in disbelief
Now there's a silence that I can't abide
Observing the wreckage that happened deep inside

Fortune Teller

The daggers in your eyes
Can not sympathize with my feelings
It took poison from your lips
For me to get the hint that you're leaving
Everyone else seems to think that it's fair but I don't
I wander the streets late at night seeking help but you won't
So now i'm asking for advice
Though I won't believe a word that they say
I'm not a mystic, not superstitious
But my palm is face up anyway
Will I live to grow old?
Will I be stuck out in the cold?
Will I get to erase
the mistakes that I made?
WIll I ever find love
that won't hurt to the touch?
Oh won't you tell me please
fortune teller
what will I do next?
Tell me what should I do next?
The furniture's here, and i'm left to rearrange everything
Now and again i'll wait by the bus stop where you up and left
You'll be the one who is living with nobles and dancers
I'll be the one who is stuck here without any answers
