Geist
03:03

There lies a ghost inside of me
There lies a ghost in everyone
It will never leave
Never find peace
The sight of light
All depends how much you want to feel
You can’t bury it or burn it out now
Pre-Chorus:
Don’t take too much medicine it might make it worse
It might make it worse
Chorus:
This Geist lives inside your head
It follows you wherever you go
There’s hope that it all will fade
But that would be an easy door
For escape
The lights go down
You breathe in deep
You’re trying not to watch it reappear
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Wake Up
For the dream has all but ended
The pieces you reminisce on
Are nothing more than remnants
These fragments of fantasies
That are thoughts in your future presence
Render you rigor mortis
It’s hardening up your essence
No longer an adolescent
We’ve graduated to grown pain
It doesn’t heal the same
It penetrates to the bone
Moving around the marrow
And making itself at home
So much it leaves us in fear
If we ever feel like it is gone
Chorus

Six States Away
03:32
|

|
The last time I felt this way
I was six states away from home
Trying to remember what you just said
I am coming up with blanks
Except I know that look on your face
I’ve seen it too many times before
Pre-Chorus:
You’re disappointed but never more than I am in myself
But never more than I am in myself
Chorus:
It’s life like a Steinbeck fantasy
I’ll stay as close as you’ll let me
You’ll never know the bones of an old house
Until you try to move when it’s quiet
Then there’s no getting out
Talking with every move I make
It’s always stepping just the wrong way
Down – down – down
Pre-Chorus
Chorus

How the Blood Talks
03:18
|
|||
|
Watching from the safety
Of the corner above the stairs
Watching as he caves again
As she brings him back to tears
And tomorrow she’ll put on a different face
Gaslighting the traces of memory
Chorus:
It’s how the blood talks
These are the voices
I hear sometimes
They say diamonds are forever
A girl’s best friend
But she etches spite into his face
With a slap of her hand
And I drown it all out
With Roy on the radio
Because “only the lonely know”
Chorus
