Black Tears 03:03
What do we owe? Flowers turning to stone? Is there an ocean buried under the snow? Black tears, brown tears They taste like the ocean Is this where it goes? People just losing it all? We wanna go, back to where we belong Black tears, brown tears They taste like the ocean Heartbeat crescendos in my chest Lose touch when the sinking feeling hits Call up, hang up, black tears course down my cheeks I lost touch at the precipice Curved road means there danger ahead I’ll ascend for the hell of it I don’t care what the sign says Factory smoke blowing across the shore Passenger planes floating above it all Black tears, brown tears They taste like the ocean Is there a soul? Won’t they just them then? It’s like they know, yeah but they won’t admit Black tears, brown tears They taste like the ocean Heartbeat crescendos in my chest Lose touch when the sinking feeling hits Call up, hang up, black tears course down my cheeks I lost touch at the precipice Curved road means there danger ahead I’ll ascend for the hell of it I don’t care what the sign says Back up fall down again We return to the mosh pit We’re small, we’re large We fit in when the rhythm hits What it means to feel nothing x2 We’re all involved Eyes closed so we forget What it means to feeling nothing x2 We all dissolve Black tears when we’re apart

Your hands are raised above your head In stress, we try to hide ourselves My show, you came I saw your face When I get home I see the same again We laugh with hands in tight embrace Your eyes are like the sky We walk along the garden aisle To pick some vegetables we like Words are shapes and shapes are linked I’m a me and your one too Colors pink and purple hue One, two, three for my sick severed tongue And cheek a peck much less than What it is but just as gentle Especially on the neck

Zaheer 03:42
One foot out over the ledge Another step and I’m dead Empty myself I am wind Have no fear just like Zaheer Glancing down I feel the breeze The clouds no higher than my knees I’m looking out and all I see An empty void on its way to me Shut down cause I don’t want to talk I can’t seem to find the words Anyways it’s all a wash I’m not doing what I could I just want to see Mt. Rainier out my window again Flying west I see my friends Feel the inspiration again Climb up that hill, not again Lost track of time, you’ve been Feeling anxious all the time, I pretend I’m alright but I might step off that ledge Wake up in my bed First thought in my head Haven’t I done this before Weird feeling in my chest I don’t want to do this again Feelings darker than the melanin on my skin Ever wonder what it’s like To be “fucked up, man” all the time But the darkness, when it fades It feels good to be alive See my friends and hold them tight Laugh while we drink bud light Climb up that hill, not again Lost track of time, you’ve been Feeling anxious all the time, I pretend I’m alright but I might step off that ledge

Tell me that you’re still going do it But when the voices in your head are laughing To hard to get out of bed I just want to fit in I just want to look inward and feel whole again

Alone 02:48
I am not a wise man I left home at eighteen I thought I knew everything My family so proud of me It took about six months Before the great unraveling My adolescent brain So strained and constrained I knew Spending time alone Was the only place I felt myself Looking back I now know My life was turning black Mom was callin’ Why didn’t I call her back The cityscape erupts With those that sleep alone You can’t stand to see yourself alone (I try to sleep and dream of you) You keep wishing you’d turn to someone else (It’s fine I’ll make angels in the snow) You can’t stand to see yourself alone I try to sleep and dream of you You keep wishing you’d turn to someone else It’s fine I’ll leave when I’m alone You are not this body Identification of oneself in the physical Is the greatest ignorance Your true nature, wishes eternal Is beyond the body and mind The intellect, when the body dies The soul doesn’t die You can’t stand to see yourself alone (I try to sleep and dream of you) You keep wishing you’d turn to someone else (It’s fine I’ll make angels in the snow) You can’t stand to see yourself alone (I try to sleep and dream of you) You keep wishing you’d turn to someone else (It’s fine I’ll leave when I’m alone)
