    Shelf in the Room

    The key is so distant
    I've opened doors
    Know when to listen
    know what to listen for (yea)

    The shelf in the room
    has been the way of holding me
    and letting me stay

    Kick me out
    let me go
    I don't belong here no more
    A releasing sense of getting tired
    Hold myself
    I can't hold myself

    The shelf in the room
    has been so true
    I can hide in
    the shelf in the room

    Holding out
    never hold in
    holding out
    never hold

    Know when to listen
    Know what to listen for
    Believe in resistance
    don't let them tell you anymore
    Is there anyway/no
    to get away/no
    Ask myself
    while I stay inside

    The key is so distant
    I've closed my doors
    The shelf in the room
    is rain waiting to pour


    Touch, Peel and Stand

    Since I know how low to go
    I won't let it show
    Won't you touch me/touch me
    I won't let it go

    Yes, I've finally found a reason
    Don't need an excuse
    I've got this time on my hands
    You are the one to abuse

    You're always talking back to me
    You won't let it be
    Won't you touch me/touch me
    It never bothered you before
    Now I stand and I peel for more
    Won't you touch me/touch me
    I won't let it go

    I've got this time on my hands


    Face of the Earth

    I'm the one receiving the pain from you
    You would make these lies
    I would take them true
    You're self existing
    no chance of listening
    Close your eyes I will help you pray
    Listen to God and tell me what he said
    and what he says

    I'm the one receiving the pain from you
    Break me down so shove me in a shoe
    You put it on and walk on me all day
    Me it wouldn't surprise
    It's something you would do
    I watch you

    I am the ground and the dirt
    walk on me
    Face of the Earth


    Solitude

    You are plain insane/inside you live
    Tonight/afraid the pain will give

    Don't you want to feel
    Death has done your part
    You chose not to feel
    You've won a lonely heart
    The devil opens his eyes
    He breathes right into your face
    If you like the smell
    You'll really like this place

    You'll really like this place
    Are you ready to shake
    Don't be afraid of the snake
    The will to negotiate

    You are you/get used to it/open
    The same don't appeal/but it will/you are you

    Live to live
    to die inside you will
    Anticipate solitude

    Follow me back home
    No other place to go
    No need to smile or get stoned
    you'll always be alone
    You'll always be alone
    your body stripped down to the bone
    No breath to scream out or moan
    No freedom nowhere to run
    Solitude


    The Down Town

    I know a town where people are running
    Away from life it seems very funny
    They think they are smart
    don't doubt what they say
    Scared of a change
    existing only

    To bring me down

    Thought less in heart/desperate in honesty
    Failed from the start/wasted and suffering
    Supply them their drugs/just don't take them away
    Scared of a change/existing only

    To bring me down

    I don't feel like I should even worry about you
    But I take the time and you push me away
    I don't care too much no more
    I always seem to waste my breath
    Go my own way
    Go my own way


    What's Left For Me?

    Taken by surprise/by the size of my brain
    Knowing all the time all the lies/all the games
    Thinking up a storm/when it storms it's going to rain
    Taking what's mine all the time/all the time

    Take some for yourself
    It's all good for something
    And when there's no more to give
    The window will shine in the light
    On what's left for me

    Know in your mind that you've got to remember your name

    Staggering around/can't find a place to sit down
    Nothing suits my ass
    Toast to some champaigne of pain
    I know you can bring us all a bottle
    Remember the time when time was a friend
    And you could make him lend you a hand
    Now there's a place where taking takes place
    And time just gets in your way


    Freak

    Watch the time
    wait for me
    patience is reality
    I don't know how it feels
    no, I can't see with your foot in my face

    I don't know how it feels
    I can't decide

    No, I can't see
    with your nose in my business
    Your ass in my space
    Your life
    as my problem
    Your foot
    in my face

    I won't
    I can't
    I'm lost
    I'm a freak

    Trust my lie
    and you will die
    I can't succeed
    Now I can't fail
    I don't know
    how it feels
    I can't decide

    Searching for things
    I can't see
    Mountains in front of me
    No nothing will conquer
    my existence
    Fear will not discover
    my brain

    I'm a freak

    Your foot in my face


    Now

    I feel alone even with myself
    but does it better me
    I'd like to tell you how I'm seeing now
    but ruins everything

    You try to judge me now/tomorrow's okay
    You try to tell me now how I should feel
    I don't feel like I should be here

    I feel alone even with myself
    Do you know what I mean
    I can't explain those things that seem to repel me
    They ruin everything

    Your fears are working now/but I don't complain
    I'm working hard to listen and that's okay
    Don't you know it's not okay to be afraid of me

    I hate to tell you but you're in my way
    I hate when someone tries to push me away
    Don't you know you can't be afraid of me
    Giving away all I'm feeling now

    Why don't you listen to this heart full of pain
    Sounds like complaining but it's hard to refrain
    Don't you know you can't be afraid of me
    Giving away all I'm feeling now


    Whimsical

    I can see the orange sky in front of me
    I can see things you'll never see
    People say it's all a dream
    But I can say words you couldn't speak

    Is it me
    can you believe
    You'll never live the world I live
    Is it me
    It is only me
    I can only live a world to live

    Break away from you
    shattered beliefs
    Detaching from my body
    desperate in grief
    I have changed the world in front of me
    One against all
    I'm starving this world

    Is it me
    do you want me
    You think you can have me
    Say you love me
    you want me
    I'm saving my money
    'cause I don't pay to breathe

    I'm not afraid to live/I'm not afraid to die
    I can only give what I see inside
    You can only take what I give of me
    You can only win when I'm not afraid to lose

    Subjected to you mother of nature/limited to the colour of your eyes
    Drained by the one you call your lover/She don't care if you live or die
    Well I don't have a problem/I evolved/Sometimes there's always problems

    I stand above


    Where I Stand

    Some of us play life
    like a board game
    It's new
    fun
    and you play it
    with people
    There's a time
    you get tired
    and you put it away
    Then one day
    you get it out
    and the places are broken

    Self disipline
    I want to feel before you
    Take it slow
    feel before you yeah

    That's where I stand
    Where I stand
    Where I stand
    Where I stand
    Some of us live life
    like we didn't know it exists
    Care
    Got to care
    or it fades away
    Then one day
    you come to life
    and living is over
    I just want


    How Do You Know You

    All I see is all to see
    Stubborn mind in front of me
    If you want I'll go away
    I'll be here some other day

    How do you know you

    And I don't feel you now
    And I don't see you now
    And I don't hear you now
    And I don't know you now

    How do you know you

    You/yes, I've kept the news from you
    You/yes it's all in your mind

    All I see is all to see
    Nothing talking over me

    How do you know you


    Cling

    It seems so slow to me
    Watching them drop like fleas
    Got to run
    Got to get over this
    I've faced me death
    I've drowned in piss

    Is it okay if I invade you
    Place myself before you
    Even though you think
    you're so much better than me

    I'll break this
    I'll take this
    If you
    I'll ache this
    fall through
    I'll break this

    There is no peace to bring
    Pain is the only thing
    That's holding on
    and won't let go
    And can take over you
    and won't let you know

    Is it okay if I rape you
    Make something else
    something out of you
    Even though you think
    I might just set you free

    I feel you
    I see you
    I know you
    I watch you everyday

    I crave you
    I've done you
    I've thrown you away
    Alone too much to hide


    Running Knees

    Ive come to complicate you / ive got a big suprize
    ive come so far to thank you / blood runs from raining eyes
    still in bed you never loose your head /
    they said whats that light i see /
    running knees they never seem to please me/
    you painted pictures of me / yea /
    id never felt so high / i never thought so low /
    no more screaming advice / its what i already know
    im not willing to die / im not ready to go
    my view was never you / yea / you painted pictures of me
    im always designated / left / right/ i would be alright
    you seem to constipated / no help from me tonight
    heh/ you chose straight out to fuck me
