Friends of mine
This world may seem cruel at times
But I will be your shoulder to cry on
I will be there, even when all your friends are gone
When all love has left you
And you think that your life is through
I will pick you up again
And take away the bad thoughts from your head
I know how you feel, I've been down that road before
Don't think this is over, there is so much more
This life holds so much for you
Why give up? This could turn into something new
You don't have to face this alone
All the troubles you face will soon be done
Take my hand and come with me
Soon, we will be set free
You tear yourself apart
And shiver at
Every corner I turn there are phantoms
Memories that I can't forget, burning like candles
They haunt me in the night
Like undercover street lights
In Darkness, blinded by shadows
Wondering alone amongst the ghosts
In light the blind are given hope
The ghosts disappear and truth shows
The sky is dark and I've lost my way
Vague silhouette's of disarming strangers
That's how they fool you
A facade to make you believe their intentions were good
Shut out from the way of kings
Feeling like I'm trapped and being held captive
This place is ruled by fear
There is nothing left here
In darkness, blinded by shadows
Wondering alone amongs
There is a look on your face that's like you've been to hell and back
Somber, you watch as the lights flash
Take a sip and drown your sorrows
The Jack and Coke won't last long though
Slip and sway through the dimly lit room
Shadows dancing, they're all around you
Intoxicated by her light
One last drink, it'll be alright
Lay the glass on the counter
Your eyes gaze upon her
A smile flickers but she walks away
A temporary bliss to numb the pain
Take a breath of this frigid air
Other people walk by as you just sit there
Inhale from your lungs the smoke that keeps you "alive"
The only thing you feel that keeps you grounded on this l
I find myself laying on the floor staring at the ceiling,
Going over in my head how everything happened, trying to find its meaning
Wondering why the death and grief was chosen for me
Stricken with such afflictions, I walk this road, unbeknownst where it leads
I don't know where this road goes
I don't even know if I will end up back home
But I will follow it in hopes of finding something worth living for
Maybe this road will open new doors
Keeping my eyes to the sky wondering if you're okay
Maybe it was supposed to end up this way
You're safe and I'm still here to try and make sense of this all
But before you're able to walk you h

Watchmaker - Hands Like Houses
Watchmaker, teach me the ways.
I want to learn the secrets and the sciences of seconds,
The methods to dull my ears to the sound.
Teach me how to rewind, rewind,
So I can relive every second,
Minute, all I missed oh.
I'm always focused on the next thing
If only I could pause and breathe, teach me how!
If I were a watchmaker, I'd build suspension into the springs.
Hidden gears, secret faces.
Undiscovered hours to keep you in.
There'll be no back, there'll be no forth,
Just us, where we are.
Watchmaker, teach me the workings.
I want to learn the secrets and the sciences of seconds.
Teach me the seasons, the measure of these ma
Misunderstood is a word of encouragement
Those who are misunderstood are the gateway to sequence
Initiating love and the fight for creativity
Live the life of a dreamer and don't forget it
Never left alone, even in your mind there is no solitude
Wheels turning, misfortune follows you
When there is so much going on, you get knocked down
You have the power to pick yourself back up again, you wear the victory crown.
This world has sucked the life out of the individual and loving
People are lost and wondering
The next time you see someone alone and pondering, think of that
They could have gone through hell and you wouldn't even know or
