watertower
(zenith)

lying on my back
on the porch of your mother's house
she said you'd be home in half an hour

turtle in the road lying on his back
not much hope left now to reach the other side

watertower we can climb it if we want to
and i'm awake but you're still dreaming
i'm awake and bleeding

august starts to end we go back to state
we could still be brothers if we want to

watertower we can climb it if we want to
and i'm awake but you're still dreaming
i'm awake and bleeding

codependency
(zenith)

i get so tired of living your life
i wish i had one of my own
your holding me up
is bringing me down

no one cna make me take it
gets caught in my throat
i can't get it up

your holding me up
is bringing me down

i keep on waiting for you to
do something or anything
i wish you'd just step back
so i can fall
i'm always falling
oh i need to take responsibility

your holding me up
is bringing me down


pretty ballerina
( Brown)

I had a date with a pretty ballerina
Her hair so brilliant that it hurt my eyes
I asked her for this dance and then she obliged me
Was I surprised, yeah
Was I surprised, no not at all

I called her yesterday, it should have been tomorrow
I could not keep the joy that was inside
I asked for her to tell me if she really loved me
Somewhere a mountain is moving
Afraid it's moving without me

I had a date with a pretty ballerina
Her hair so brilliant that it hurt my eyes
I asked her for this dance and then she obliged me
Was I surprised, yeah
Was I surprised, no not at all

And when I wake on a dreary Sunday morning
I opened up my eyes to find there's rain
And something deep within said, "go ahead and find her,
Just close your eyes, yeah
Just close your eyes and she'll be there..."

She'll be there...

sick burn cut
(zenith)

this terror paralyzes
there it is again - family decided
brings us to an end
everything's in boxes
I'm not supposed to see
empty places on the wall
where people used to be
you cut me out just like you wanted to

chorus:
you cut me out it left a scar
you cut me out and I wander where you are

and our imbalanced act
drew the audience in
and they'd all hold their breath
to see if we'd fallen
they never new the secret
we weren't supposed to tell
hidden in a box at the bottom of a well
you cut me out just like you wanted to

and our imbalanced act
it drew the members in
they'd all come back clutching and crawling to see if we'd fall in
they never knew the secret
at the bottom of the well
but that's alright 'cos
I didn't want to tell

stuck inside me
(zenith)

i can't shake the bitter taste of the mess we made
sticks in the bakc of my throat and threatens to chocke me and if you're looking for apologies they're somehwere hidden yu can't see

the smell of your innocence buring
fills up the room 2 o'clock in the morning
setting the mood

and you can't get it out it's buried deep
it's somewhere hidden you can't see

stuck inside me

the light at the end of the tunnel might be an oncoming train and i get the feeling you're laughing at something behind me
and if you're looking for something from me
it's deep inside where you should be

stuck inside me

unconsciously
(zenith)

we drive around with the headlights off
at night for hours until we get lost

i watch you dance but you don't move at all
we jump so high but never fall

making love unconsciously
secretly so no one sees us
making love unconsciously

i hide behind this honesty
i make love on the phone
to someone you can't see

all the time

hey, what are you doing here I didn't expect to see you
it's nothing personal but I can't stand the sight of you/
he doesn't love you all the time
maybe he wants to wants you all the time

attack me from behind with a dull & rusty blade
in pieces on the kitchen floor the bloody mess you made

he doesn't love you love you all the time
maybe he wants to wants you all the time

i just want someone to tell me it's alright to feel this way
I just want someone to tell me it's ok

what are you doing here i didn't expect to see you
oh, you get so personal that I can't stand the sight of you

l
oves you all time

big wheel (fast with Andy)

beg off

maine



strap me in
(zenith)

strap me in before it's too late
before i change my mind
i like it here and i feel better
the medication's good and i feel fine

it's been 20 years twenty years
tell me why did i wait so long
can't figure my resistance
to this place where i belong
it's 8 o'clock in the morning
strap me in

strap me in i feel fine

we could just pretend you're unaffected
like we are we could just pretend you're alright
