Impersonations

Leave me here and then you go
Erase the world with alcohol
I am not alone, I’m a loner
Bracing for another day
Just as long as I can stay
Numb enough to not think about it
In every way I wanted you to stay
But not enough to change my ways
You told me once who we are is down to fate
So I guess that is to blame
For each new year we played the part
Of two tied by one beating heart
Hoping that the act turned to actions
But now the scene has changed again
Lovers trying to be friends
Another day of impersonations
In every way I wanted you to stay
But not enough to change my ways
You told me once who we are is down to fate
So I guess that is to blame
I know you wouldn't stay with me forever
I won’t stay here too
But I know you wouldn’t leave me over nothing
I just gave you an excuse
In every way I wanted you to stay
But not enough to change my ways
You told me once who we are is down to fate
So I guess that is to blame

Go To Sleep

AM worries, midnight thoughts, nothing here seems sane
and if every drama by daylight fades, by late night breaks the strain
but i can’t go to sleep, can’t ever release
I can’t go to sleep, even when my mind has me beat
life in colour only works when colour can be seen
but when the sunlight darkens then the one thing left is dreams
but i can’t go to sleep, can’t ever release
I can’t go to sleep, even when my mind has me beat
in a fearless rush from dawn to dusk where everything gets turned to rust
indelicate, impersonal, the constant threat of time coming true
watch the same thing in different forms, hoping it will change
same old drama, same old cast, just on another day
but i can’t go to sleep, can’t ever release
I can’t go to sleep, even when my mind has me beat
in a fearless rush from dawn to dusk where everything gets turned to rust
indelicate, impersonal, the constant threat of time coming true

You & I

One more cigarette before bed
Every book in this house has been read
Screens on screens like waves of a tide
Anything to keep me occupied
You and I could’a been the best thing that ever happened to me
But you and I just need the distance so It can feel like a dream
Writing lines looking back and forward
Taking time and leave it distorted
Once the words had sense and meaning
Now just means for self-defeating
You and I could’a been the best thing that ever happened to me
But you and I just need the distance so it can feel like a dream
Was it just a waste of time - Well, isn’t everything
And the memories intwined - Still worth remembering
I could never promise you - I could never promise too
Anything more than a while - Anything more than a while
Every day’s a new chapter written
And all good stories have their villains
So I need space without distractions
But most of all I need your absence
You and I could’a been the best thing that ever happened to me
But you and I just need the distance so it can feel like a dream
