WORD

Album Lyrics

ksera:

Collisions

I saw Death sitting waiting at my front door,

he said “it’s been such a long road, but now it’s time to come”

so I packed my bags made my way to the door

said no goodbyes, just I’ll see you soon

when we become stars….

Death and I walked through the town I grew up in

and laughed at the times that we almost met

but fate had it’s way and the timing was perfect

from years, to the months, to today

please hold your applause

I’ll see you all real soon

when we become stars…

Welcome all to the end of the world

where time is cheap and the seasons stay

for as long as they want, there’s no reason here to leave

so take a seat, sit back, enjoy the show

Near Misses

Race the sun on my way

through canyons and the dessert states

feel a strong disconnect, I’m an old soul caught in the modern age

put my life on my back, wear fingerprints as jewelry

keep my heart safe at home, my body at sea, my past in the ground

Put revenge down to rest

its a lost cause, call it a dying breed

put no faith in a Church, in only myself

and the love that I keep

You can’t catch a satellite

You can’t save what you kill

Stay where you are

don’t follow…

Meditations in an Emergency

Sing them a song and they will listen

to the words that can’t say themselves

say what you want there is no shame

in the truth, the ugly truth, we’re the same

but it’s all sounding the same to me

Hope for a sign that you’re someone

worth the time worth the money spent

when judgement day comes will you

stand and sing the words they want

(hey) it’s all sounding the same to us

it’s all sounding the same to us

with no secrets left to keep 

I swear I’ll find a away to sell my skin

if you let me

Dream, Like I Do

Tonight we raise the dead

and ask them how the underground is treating them

should we all just burn like stars?

stars that hang over head.

Could you set yourself on fire?

could you shoulder all the blame?

all my friends at the bottom 

know where I am coming from

all my friends at the bottom

know where I am coming from

To hell with dying young

I’ll stay until death drags me out

kick and scream, give me one more 

day to find the meaning of the life that I have lead

life that I have leave

Could you set yourself on fire?

could you shoulder all the blame?

all my friends at the bottom 

know where I am coming from

all my friends at the bottom

know where I am coming from

They don’t speak at all

don’t speak, like I do

they don’t dream at all

don’t dream, like I do

St Peter (Better Than Yours)

Peter stands outside his gate

when I arrive from endless sleep

he says I have some time to wait

when I ask he answers “someday”

He’s got too much on his mind 

to give a damn about me

I took for granted all the things that I was fortunate to have

like my family and my friends

I slept in late until the sun was almost dead and gone but

what was I supposed to do

I had too much on my mind 

to give a damn about you

I kept myself from giving in

with thoughts of my father 

in Heaven doesn’t want me there

then why should I bother

He’s got too much on his mind

to give a damn about you

I’ve got too much on my mind

to give a damn about you

We’ve got too much on our mind

to give a damn about you

Carry

The church bells in Paris are ringing out

they’re singing your song

as the world sleeps tonight

we’ll be staying up

singing…

Come name our daughters and sons to be,

the places we’ll go 

and as the world the turns to dust 

we’ll be staying up

singing…

I’ll be a better man then I’ve been before

I promise you that

and as the world falls apart we’ll be staying up

We will carry on

all alone

carry on

Hollow Grounds of London

Two months abroad from France to Spain

counting the stops to Madrid

in London I found no hollow ground

to lay and rest my restless bones

someone explain what am to do with all these trips around the sun?

if life’s not a game, love’s not a war

what am I hear to do?

Make no mistake I am on the mend

stitching the seams where they tear

from hospital beds I sent my best

“stay exactly who you are”

We collide like God and the stars

we set fire to the sun

with no end in sight

with no goal in mind

we will never be

we will never be alone

True Enough to be Interesting

They talk a little more with every step

that I take down that road that I’ve been on so long

far too long

and their eyes roll a little more with every word that I write

that shows them who they are, they really are

so burn every bridge that you cross

so you never go back again

the hardest part is moving on

take that first step won’t you

(you’ve been feeling lost living under the gun)

before they take everything that you are

everything that you could be

at the top the bottom doesn’t look so bad

but when you’re at the bottom the top looks

impossible to reach

take my bones throw them to the wolves 

I won’t feel a thing (feel a thing)

take my soul and give it to the poor

I don’t need a thing (need a thing)

going back and forth in this state of mind

Ambien

Heaven and Hell aside

you could of saved me if you tried

a lithe bit more I’ve been told

keeping myself above ground

with nobody else’s help

it’s been a long road I know

I’ve been a long road I know

Sleeping with my eyes wide open

I’ve been keeping tabs on all my friends

who I’ve loved then lost or lost to love

but I keep telling myself “it’s the same if your young 

or if your old”

burry me quickly or I promise I will find a way

to take you down with me cause you would 

take a life so you could stay 

and it’s long way back, but I needed

to say…

“the view from the top is much better than the bottom”

The Economist

I’ve run out of pages

no room for words to grow

and take on a meaning

for someone to call their own

Excuse my advances

I can’t control my tongue

it’s hard pressed and desperate

to break free and see the world

if I had the answers here

would you really want to know?

was all of this worth it?

does anyone care at all?
