You can wait all day
if you want
Sit dissecting
the clock on the wall
No mistakes, there’s just
nobody home
Acquire tastes to enjoy
what you don’t
So we just wait
We never go
Tried to make waves but I’m up on shore
How could I know
Coded words in a verbal war
We never go
Tried to make waves but I’m up on shore
How could I know
Coded words in a verbal war
Take me with you
when things all go wrong
Drop me off just
before they resolve
You don’t know if anybody’s listening
And you don’t know who’s out to get you
You just hope they won’t forget you
And we just wait
We never go
Tried to make waves but I’m up on shore
How could i know
Coded words in a verbal war
We never go
Tried to make waves but I’m up on shore
How could i know
Coded words in a verbal war
I’ll always have my anger
It’s never left my side
And you could kill it with me
If you cut in to try
You’re always missing something
I’m always way too high
I get a rush on the wrong things
I’m just happy to hide

Maple
I can’t believe my eyes
It’s amazing how you grow right through me
Maple
It’s a compromise
Here’s a wasted year for clawing through me
I die every time
You pull me under
This close to light
‘Til you change your color
Maple
Show me where to hide
I’ve been choked out, thrown out, drained of feeling
Maple
You don’t have to try
You’ve outgrown your home from floor to ceiling
I die every time
You pull me under
This close to light
‘Til you change your color
(They tell you it’s
out of love
That you deserve
to be locked up
But all the signs say,
“Chain the warden”
x2)
I die every time
You pull me under
This close to light
‘Til you change your color
x2)

Someone’s calling out for me by name
But no one hears ‘em
I keep driving over just in case
Only lonely for ya
Something tells me I’m in the wrong place
If only i could
Make myself forget you for the day
Only lonely for ya
Take time to call it
Bow out if you don’t want it
Face down and floatin’
I choked and no one noticed
Can’t hang around here,
Can’t climb my way out of here
One or the other,
It all reminds me of ya
Only
x4
Someone wants to put me in my grave
And I got both feet in
Tried to find somebody who can say,
“I’m only lonely for ya”
I’m only lonely for ya

You know me
I’m your projection
Flashing light on a screen
Your own
Theatre of tension
You know me
Under-aggressive
Someone’s dog for the day
I go
Where I am directed
And I’ve tried, to stay
Where I am protected
The only kid on the team
I win
By dodging rejection
You don’t know
How far out I landed
Washed up on the beach
Alone
A free man, but stranded
I saw you
on the outside
You’re always looking in
I told you
how to get to me
So where have you been?
You wanna be passionate
You wanna be in love
Nobody told you
how it’s done
You’ve been on the wrong side
of your own mind
And I’ve been waiting my turn
to step inside

Transparency

It’s always
the time to choose
Couldn’t change, but I wanted to
You say it’s personal
The big leagues
I’m missing cues
Losing track of what I want to do
It’s irreversible
I told you, “Don’t wait around,
You’ll break my concentration”
I’m falling out
But I don’t want you now
I’m only a poster boy
Your choice abomination
I did without
And I don’t want you now
It’s a matter of urgency,
I’ve met with my contender
If you thought it was bad before,
I’d never say it, but I wanted more
Took a course in transparency,
And all that I remember
Is a night lying on the floor,
Thinking back on what I came for

Stick it out with me
Show me you care,
it just looks like cruelty
What an awful feeling,
getting above it all to see that
It’s always raining
And somebody won’t take shelter
It’s all the same
when you consider
what I offer
Who would want it?
I was thinking ‘bout our ventures
How each one hurt a little more
I’ve been digging to the center
To find I’m rotten at my core
It’s always raining
when I’m home alone
I’m only waiting
for someone I know
Someone wants to put me in my grave
And I got both feet in
Tried to find somebody who can say,
“I’m only lonely for ya”
