Together, Hereafter
03:08

With your eyes as warm as snow,
looks like we've made it home.
It's a lot darker than I remember,
but forget it,
we're here.
Wait,
where my reflection?
Wait,
Where's yours?
My hands caught fire.
Let's retrace our steps.
With your eyes as warm as snow,
looks like we've made it home.
I can't quite remember the journey.
But forget it,
we're here.
I guess that this proof,
that love is thicker than water.
until death do us part.
Together, Hereafter.

A Set Of Reasons
03:18
|

|
Give myself a reason,
to cross out the words,
I thought I meant
May have caught you off guard,
with the message I sent,
Forever just setting myself up.
Unworthy, but waiting for your love
A set of reasons just to pinpoint the blame,
They Say I'm changing everyday,
But I still feel the same.
I find a purpose and reason in you
To hold you close,
to give my hands,
a sense of purpose other than
to just write out all these thoughts
I'm still trying to make sense of
A set of reasons just to pinpoint the blame,
They Say I'm changing everyday,
But I still feel the same.
I find a purpose and reason in you.

Tension In My Neck
02:53
|
|||
|
Side sleeping on my shoulder,
with tension in my neck.
and like paper I will fold her,
just to avoid this wreck
and it's like Sam said,
"The kind of tired that sleep can't cure."
and it's like Sean said,
"Empty and that is where I found her."
That is where I found her.
Stumbled on a scheme I'm building,
just to fill this book.
And the dreams I keep getting killed in,
for the changes that I took.
and it's like I am,
the worst person I can be,
I just hope i can,
disappear in these stars I see,
these stars I see.

Take these eyes away,
Take these aching limbs.
For the words you construct,
my burning branches are falling.
and spilling over are the flames,
tress in the foreground of the city-scape.
I'm scared but only on the change,
watch God dissolved we are what we create.
I'm staring out the window.
And I keep trying,
to crawl out of my skin,
but as soon as I smell freedom,
I start crawling back in,
and the effort either way,
Becomes redundant and lost,
and this is your life,
end in silent applause.
And spilling over are the flames,
trees in the foreground of the city-scape.
I'm scared but only on the change.
Watch god dissolved we are what we create.
I'm staring out the window.

Pursuing Balance
03:13
|
|||
|
Inside all your demons sleep,
there is a stranded truth i can concede.
Live in the structures I built up for myself
and I hold true the words that I wear on my sleeve.
This is only half true
Pursuing balance as I run backwards,
I see your face dissolve the lights you left on.
Falling through the cracks again,
I sit and I stand and I am,
What I am,
Perceived as a name to a face you forgot,
A slave to perception,
we are,
are we not?
This is only half true.
Pursuing Blanace as I run backwards,
I see your face dissolve the lights you left on.

Collapse In One
03:57
|
|||
|
We wake,
and tell each other,
fall backwards in a whisper,
To the chasms,
That hold our former selves.
And all that's left,
are the memories of the lessons learned
on these rocky shelves.
You hold us close together,
and grasp firmly in a shiver,
underneath,
our forgotten winter.
We fall,
and catch each other,
climb upwards in this weather
to the mountains,
that drape our current state,
and all that's left are the metaphors
of the battles lost,
to reach this garden gate.
You hold us close together,
and grasp firmly in a shiver
underneath,
our forgotten winter.

Desperation Demos

I bought the physical copy of this demo, #2/50, the night before All Tomorrow's Shoeys. I bought it again almost two years later when Jen was in a bind. In between those purchases I bought it on vinyl from Craigos. What I'm trying to say is that I've bought this fucking thing three times now and I'd probably buy it again, so you know it's good, aye!
