Post Truth

Is there anything left to say?
not between us, but ever again (ever again)
if it's all perspective
what you make of it
forever again (forever again)
then I can say whatever I want
to make you see
to make you believe what I want you to see
is there any room left to stand
behind your viewpoint, you're making your bed (making your bed)
if it's all subjective
what you see in it
you're laying (you're laying)
then I can say whatever I want
to make you see
to make you believe what I want you to see
post truth baby
echoing back to me
in this chamber
right where I want you to be
listen closely
scrolling down your feed
influencing
staring endlessly
then I can say whatever I want
to make you see
to make you believe what I want you to see

Drowning

maybe it's a fever dream
maybe it's who i used to be
but i cannot allow to bring it around
too much has happened to me
but i need to remember
who i can be
maybe it's a fever dream
maybe it's where i can cling
when i find myself drowning
too much has happened to me
but i need to remember
who i can be
'cause any port in a storm will help
any place to find myself
any respite to break the swell
so it can't take me down
but i need to remember
who i can be

Power
03:14

Power to create
Power to destroy
don't abuse your power
but power is all i know
Power to persuade
power to withhold
using all that power
power is all i know
don't ask me how it feels
it's just another regret, another regret of mine
yea, it's been there for years and years
it's just another regret, another regret of mine
been there years and years
used as sword and shield
been there years and years
used as sword and shield
power to include
power to deploy
it's power you agreed to
my power as a whole
power to affect
power to remove
power as a virtue
a virtue i confused
don't ask me how it feels
it's just another regret, another regret of mine
yea, it's been there for years and years
it's just another regret, another regret of mine

this conversation
it has so many doors
it has so many floors
an unwinding maze
but theres one little thing
just one little thing
one little thing I want you to say
temptaion
invitation
if it's all the same
if it's all the same
to you
one little thing
i want you to say
and it's not too late
'cause if you were wondering
then I'm wondering too
please don't delay
on that one little thing
that one little thing
one little thing I want you to say
let me say i'm too afraid to drop the ball
i'm not the type of person to come out and say it all out loud, no no
all out loud, no no
but if you listen carefully there's something hidden in between
imagine
imagine
that this conversation
it has so many doors
it has so many floors
an unwinding maze
but theres one little thing
just one little thing
one little thing I want you to say

Action
03:37
|

|
Intermittent little moments of grace
Trying to find pure spaces for
These impure thoughts
And I can't get it right
It always ends up back to this
And so I think
We have to break it down
Before we get it right
We have to burn things down
To get a reaction
'cause every action makes the dominoes start tumbling down
Action 'cause without action, the words we say are nothing but sound
A little more than I would like to admit
I would like to spin across the universe
But I'm no satellite
I'm always hanging on to this
And so I think
We have to break it down
Before we get it right
We have to burn things down
To get a reaction
'cause every action makes the dominoes start tumbling down
Action 'cause without action, the words we say are nothing but sound
We don't really need to stay
We can always run away
Don't you think
(We have to break it down
Before we get it right
We have to burn things down)
We have to break it down
Before we get it right
We have to burn things down
To get a reaction
cause every action makes the dominoes start tumbling down
Action 'cause without action, the words we say are nothing but sound

We Try
02:57
|

Everybody's famous
In their own mind
Writing in first person
Like it or not
And we care what others may think
And say that we don't
but the best part is
we try
yea, the best part of all of this
is we try
We choose an occupation
then we set out
We wear our obligations
an albatross
And we don't always meet
the goals that we reach
so we take it a day at a time
And we can't always stay
in the roles that we play
so we take it a day at a time
but the best part is
we try
yea, the best part is
is we try

Breakdown
03:10

sleeping
this might be the calling
breaking out of here
downward
might as well be falling
anywhere but here
it's hectic
herecy
it breaks down
along the party lines
the crown
it only knows what is allowed
it's hectic
herecy
it breaks...it breaks down
it breaks...it breaks down
wisdom
protecting the fallen
domestic appeal
baseline
calculated crossing
influential sphere
it's childish
fluency
it breaks down
along the party lines
the crowd
it only knows what is allowed
it's childish
fluency
it breaks...it breaks down
it breaks...it breaks down
ransom
potentially harming
disclosing what is real
habit
instantly corrosive
giftedly sincere
it's saintly
humility
it breaks down
along the party lines
the cross
it only knows what is allowed
it's saintly
humility
it breaks...it breaks down
it breaks...it breaks down
