At Lullaby's End

Lullaby Zero 01:12
When the sky has turned to black Close your eyes my little dove Think of something you want back To remind you of the love And I share this song with you So when push does come to shove You'll have something beautiful To remind you of the love When the darkness settles in Only silence from above Know the sun will rise again To remind us of the love

It was raining when we said goodbye I remember it like it was yesterday and I Remember seeing in your eyes all the promises we made How I would never say goodbye to you And you would never ever leave me too But one of us was forced to lie And now I'll spend my whole damn life Til I can find a place where no one dies I'll never be anything better than I was back then And I don't know which way to go Cuz my mountains crumbled on the day we tumbled I had found something that I'd been searching for But I won't, won't look anymore It was raining when we said goodbye I remember it like it was yesterday and I recall The promises we made when I looked into your eyes You'll never be anything more than a memory A strong one, but a memory A poltergeist in a catalog of love And we fought so hard We held hands I remember sayin' that it might not get much better But it couldn't get much worse And we pushed it up the hill just to watch it roll back down And we lost the war, my love, now someone else will wear the crown And if you could just see this, it'd be so much better here today But I know some day, some way It was raining when we said goodbye Gonna let the rain wash this all away Every sin every prayer every broken word Wash it all away And I've made up my mind Let it wash away Still the fact remains Still the fact remains That one of us was forced to lie Now I'll spend my whole damn life Til I can find a place where no one dies

I've found love in a darker place than you dear And I've known hope in more crushing depths than these But what is that familiar sound? Is this some tragic ghost I've found? When you paddle out from shore Be sure to bring back none of your Beautiful lightning or your terrible storms And I've been stung now worse than anybody And playing doctor never gets me far But what's the point of love when you have to wear these kid gloves? When you shoot off into space Be sure to note the time and place So I can follow and catch the orbit of your face In every room we take away the air My love and I, the drifting subtle pair And I can tell our story to anyone I think will care If she walks out of that door She probably won't be back for more But I'm sure that I can't handle this thing anymore So goodnight nobody Goodnight Goodnight nobody Goodnight Goodnight nobody Goodnight Goodnight

She fell like a star down here Torn into fragments by the atmosphere And it seems a little weird that the more we talk The more we break into pieces of me and you I don't believe that I didn't see this comin' I always pride myself on my detective eye And I don't know if this haunts you but it haunts me that We could be so much more We could be brilliant or we could be bores We could be so much more I guess there's not much left to fear Cuz you can't kill what's dead my dear And it seems a little weird that the more we try The more we're confused by the look in each other's eyes I don't believe that I didn't see this comin' I always pride myself on my reflective eye And I don't know if this haunts you but it haunts me that We could be so much more We could be heroes or we could be bores So you've heard it all before Well don't let it go to your head Cuz my mouth is a graveyard for things I've left unsaid There's so much more that we need to say We both see things in the exact same way And it seems a little pointless to try to hide All the things that we feel inside So we let it all out, let the fire spout And we blindside all of our satellites But I still believe in us I still believe in the things we wrote down In our sacred book And I will see you at the end On the other side, my friend So you've heard it all before Well don't let it go to your head Cuz my mouth is a graveyard for things I've left unsaid We could be so much more We could be so much more

Hollow Echo 05:04
I came to this town And what I found, what I found Well it shocked me to the core Never seen anything like that before When I came to your house You shocked me to the floor And I hate to be the bearer of this bad news But the world is spinning out of our control And if we don't get a hold I'm afraid that we won't know How to let go How to let go Of this hollow echo How to let go Of this hollow echo And I wonder if I'll ever sleep again I don't know All the things you put inside my head How they echo And I hate to be the bearer of this bad news But your world is spinning out of your control And you need to let go Of this hollow echo How do I make you let go of this hollow echo? And I know I sleep Cuz the angels come And they visit me in my dreams And I know you sleep Cuz the angels tell me everything, what they see They see madness when you sleep And lightning in your dreams This thought This thought Can I bear this thought? Can I bear this thought? This nightmare Can I bear?

Lone Gun 03:56
It starts with a feeling like love or loss Taken to the air on your permanent cross You're wasting too much time Here's where it cuts At the edge of a knife You've got the love but you cannot find the life to break it open You've got a nice set of eyes You've got a cute way to be wise And you've got a strong alibi But I don't buy that I don't wanna be a lone gun anymore I don't wanna know the sad songs on the radio I just wanna see the sunrise on another day I don't wanna be a lone gun anyway Well it ends with a cloud rising up in the air You could be free if you weren't so scared to fake it That's alright You never talk twice when you argue with me Give it all away but you not care to take it I don't mind that You've got a nice set of eyes You've got a cute way to be wise And you've got a strong alibi But I don't buy that So I don't wanna be a lone gun anymore I don't wanna know the sad songs on the radio I just wanna see the sunrise on another day I don't wanna be a lone gun anyway Oh, everything seems okay But I bet you thought you could get away But not today Oh no not today Cuz I don't wanna be a lone gun anymore I don't wanna know the sad songs on the radio I just wanna see the sunrise on another day I don't wanna be a lone gun anyway

Do you remember the songs she would sing? Do you remember the joy they would bring? I used to feel safe for a moment Now I can't remember it What do you do at lullaby's end When everything's quiet and darkness sets in? Well I used to think that I could take care of myself I have tried to get back to that place Where can I hear the simplest of rhymes? I long for it daily, but we all grow up sometime Where do you go at lullaby's end? What do you know that I don't know, my friend? Where do you go at lullaby's end? What do you know that I don't know, my friend? A little more real and a little less pretend Where do you go at lullaby's end? Sing to me angel of violence and war Sing of bold lovers and dreamers and more I'll take this for granted until it's too late But since life is so short it makes no sense to wait For the nightmares to pass and the struggles to cease We strain out the good and then search for relief I think it's just better if we all pretend there is nothing but darkness and peace At lullaby's end
