Lull A Bye

the bottom of a bottle
just a mouthful away
like a small child begging
come out and play

it hits like a brick 
right in the face
all has subsided
all is displaced

problem solved
after so many years
one last breath
no more tears

hitting the floor
it all turns so white
say to the stars
goodnight goodnight

Redshift

covered in snow
talking to walls
everything is different now
but you don't know

run from it all
hide in the night
staying in the shadows now
don't let me fall

i want to see it spill from your lips
roll off your forked tongue into my ears
our spades on our sleeves
there would be no more fears

i want to hear it echo aloud
solidify it in my hurt mind
let's take off our gloves
it's time to be unkind

you're not the one
you know by now
take a hammer and break this
this silent vow

can't live this way
it's all a lie
throw things to the vultures now
why should we try

i want to see it spill from your lips
roll off your forked tongue into my ears
our spades on our sleeves
there would be no more fears

i want to hear it echo aloud
solidify it in my hurt mind
let's take off our gloves
it's time to be unkind

only way out
is to give in
smash it all to pieces yeah
let's scream and shout

time to let go
time to be free
feel the force of the redshift
ending the show

i want to see it spill from your lips
roll off your forked tongue into my ears
our spades on our sleeves
there would be no more fears

i want to hear it echo aloud
solidify it in my hurt mind
let's take off our gloves
it's time to be unkind

unkind

unkind

unkind

don't hit rewind
