Crying For Addiction

I am restless
I am senseless
In the depths of my mind
I am torn up
I am sworn up
In every way
And all the time
I'm a loser
Honey, boozer
And I won't make it out alright
I'm a death grip
Epileptic
So I only come out at night (
Do you think she'll see
What she does to me
Do you think I'll waste anymore time?
I believe if there's a way, we will get there on time
I believe if there's a way we will
I believe if there's a way, we will get there just fine
I believe if there's a way we will
You are heartache
And you're a headache
I'm trying to put myself together
You won't open up
No matter the cost
And I don't know what the hell is going on
Do you think she'll see
What she does to me
Do you think I'll waste anymore time?
I believe if there's a way, we will get there on time
I believe if there's a way we will
I believe if there's a way, we will make it just fine
I believe if there's a way we will
I believe if there's a way we will
(She's crying for addiction)

Fortress of Solitude

Well it's cold in the dark
And I'm sure you wouldn't know
How it feels to feel nothing
I'm numb down to the bone
My minds become a prison
And it's holding me back
I'm doing what I'm told
But there's so much to keep track of
Yes it's hard
I'm on my own
Making trips down to Chicago
Each time a bit more stoned
Memory fades away
And I don't know where to start
Can't make no decisions
When the darkness wants to start
My skin is turning crimson
And my eyes turn to gold
As I realize that all we've tried
Has kept us from our goals
Yes it's hard
I'm on my own
Making trips down to Chicago
Each time a bit more stoned
Yes it's hard
Secrets are sealed
And I'm climbing up the mountain
With a pot of golden dreams and I don't know
Yes it's the first time I have seen your eyes
I'm so cold

James Baxter

Lately I've been observing the way you're feeling
Some dragged out teenage mood rage without reason
All my troubles and doubts, I think I've got em figured out
But I'll crumble back to the milk and lose my brains without a doubt
Has anyone seen the way I feel without feeling
I'm no James Baxter, but it's getting faster
Has anyone lost their sense of way without collision
I'm no James Baxter, I fall apart after
I thought maybe if I listened
All the fools would be conditioned
Phrophecies go unfullfilled everyday
I'm just hoping for once I'll get my way
Has anyone seen the way I feel without feeling
I'm no James Baxter, but it's getting faster
Has anyone lost a sense of way without collision
I'm no James Baxter, I'll fall apart after
You're looking out, keep looking out
You don't question no question
My heart is gold, lungs filled with mold
Soothes my soul, I want you to know
I'm no James Baxter
Take it faster
Has anyone seen the way I feel without feeling
I'm no James Baxter, but it's getting faster
Has anyone lost a sense of way without collision
I'm no James Baxter, I'll fall apart after

Rabbit Holes

See she moves in colors through the air
She's taking breaths, I stop and stare
I can't contain myself from a femme fatale
Now she moves in music flowing white
Melodic bruises fill her smile
I see her walking in my imaginary aisle
I'll get out there's nothing to it
Wonder consumes me by the night
And every time I feel alright
I take a step and then I breathe another breath and then I
Fall through rabbit holes, loose my control
I'm growing ten feet tall, are you used to this?
I'm only learning how to live
This is how I realize that if I die
I'll fall right through that hole again
I'll lose my soul again
And if you're back by my side
I think I'll feel alright
See the moon spills in buckets
And if you put out too much
You won't want to get up again
To see the sun shine
Sticks and stones may break my nimble bones
And you keep playing with my ear drums
Till I let out a cry and I say
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
If it's true to me
I'll let all the anger out and you'll see
She flows through the air
Silently and softly everywhere
