Apple Tree 01:10
All I ask for is solid ground to stand on And a place to rest my head Lately I've confided in strangers More than anyone else It's so hard to get ahead If it's hungry you should feed it If it feels strangled give it space Grow a strong and healthy apple tree All the fragments of what used to be me Are gone As the water fills my lungs
2.
Breathing underwater See all of these lights go out You're a son, a friend, a brother You're not even by my side Your love is nothing to me Your lies are not saving me But if I could I would ask for forgiveness And if I would I'm sure you'd be giving it And if I could I'd be singing with you

California 03:49
Beauty fades, can anybody show me the way Guide me to a place where stardust fills my lungs again Remedy my solitary heart It's done aching Shaking off the silence and the scars Out in the dark where we know that our worlds collide I've never been a friend of the night Well you are free Friday night and it's almost over Scared of taking a dive Well you are free Who's going down with me California Beauty fades, can anybody show me the way Guide me to a place where stardust fills my lungs again Send me in reclusion Let me wash myself in your crystal blue Out in the dark where we know that our worlds collide I've never been a friend of the night Well you are free Friday night and it's almost over Scared of taking a dive Well you are free Who's going down with me Who's going down with me California

Banish 03:40

Weapon 02:55
Therapy won't help me sleep Torture me endlessly With your weapon Pharmacy won't help me sleep Torture me endlessly With your weapon Erase me with your weapon and save me
6.
You found me at the side of the road Beaten and broken You know where it all came down If love comes for free, it goes for nothing Sleeping right next to the fire A crackling warmth But the embers will burn you alive Even the fumes won't take you higher It's always heaven down No use in trying, no use in pushing on If you meet me and see me Start a fire Drag me all the way to desire Your charming persuasion Has left me nailed to the ground If love comes for free, it goes for nothing I'll tell you what it's like And how I'll be a letdown for the rest of my life I'll be what I am now The stone that helps you drown It's always heaven down No use in trying, no use in pushing on If you meet me and see me Start a fire If you spend your love on me A broken promise is all we'll ever be If you meet me and see me Start a fire
7.
Words that miss their marks Involuntary laughter Echoing sounds of nervous actors Trust is never trust And silence never silence No one's allowed to see the damage I'll bake a pie for you The moment you feel safe They'll come for you Running out of roads Why should I be bothered No one's allowed to see the damage Climb and hold me tight I am your private shelter Wear me out and scrap the remnants The tree stands strong and tall The moment you feel safe It'll start to fall You're feeling scared and alone I'm feeling numb and unknown You're being worked to the bone I'm being carved into stone Leaves are starting to shake Branches starting to break You feel like everything else Is more important to me I feel like nothing at all Ever happens to me Leaves are starting to shake Branches starting to break

Say 04:45
Down on myself again Head in the sand again Time coming after me A brutal confrontation with reality Walls slowly closing in Clouds follow after rain Fade all the memories You know you're not supposed to be on everything Since then I've come a long way Put you on hold for my sake And if I push you away I'll have myself again Face on the willow tree Trains always chasing me Fate, won the lottery A sudden exploration of mortality Be all you want to be Fear is not a part of me Lines in a diary Repeat until you actually believe in me You and I are the same So self-aware and ashamed And when there's no one to blame Right back where we began Since then I've come a long way Put you on hold for my sake And if I push you away I'll have myself again Gun to my head again Rope round my neck again Say you want more and more Say you want more and more Say you want more and more Say...
