I'm watching the rain fall down my windshield I have for a while now, a while now, oh why now And it's leaving quicker than you ever said you loved me cause those words they fleet on little feet making paths that stain from us to them, and now it's just a silent sin Oh quicker than you loved me, loved me, loved me Say it like you want me, you miss me, I need to Map a path from our words to heal up our sore souls You're leaving quicker than you loved me, loved me, loved me And those paths are writing in the storybook of lying under Sheets of rain and snow and all the lovely things below, weighing down in us from just another show of Complexity in its simplest form of living is to just be with you during all those little silly times Tracing paths with words and cranking out our silly rhymes Under sheets of snow and every lovely thing below Oh quicker than you loved me, loved me, loved me Say it like you miss me you want me I need to Map a path from our words to heal up our sore souls You're leaving quicker than you loved me, loved me, loved me I'm watching the rain fall down my windshield I will be for a while now, a while now, a while now

Hush there my dear now don't you fear What's a'wreaking havoc underneath your mattress No snakes or ghosts, no friendly hosts You're not gonna find him, lurkin' in your mind hun Cut it open let it out, breathe right in and drown it out parasitic, none left in it, slowly getting more acidic Taking the life right out of me, heaven seems like a place to see until Sunrise, making it's way back into your eyes Don't fret my dear, what's there to fear? You're in Safety's arms now there's no cuts or harm now Those snakes and ghosts they're friendly foes Learn to pick your battles, they're what shine and rattle until Sunrise, making it's way back into your eyes Learn to pick your battles, they're what shine and rattle

Icarus 02:52
Your fingertips provide my lips with mazes to follow we start from the end and work our way in this labyrinth so hollow You swore on that storm we'd find ourselves torn Falling faster Catch me slower, and I'll lower us down to the sea I fashioned these wings with hopes to begin Something more stable How could I know that someone had stolen that from the table?

Quiet Lights 02:35
A quiet night with stormy skies I walk to your door in the rain to feel my brain A screeching light and glowing eyes the forest beckons to your call and you hear the angel fall can you feel your face when you're diving through the rain? can you see your dreams as they wash away the pain? I know that it's hard, I know that it kills you but all of these wars, they build you So keep holding, keep holding on keep fighting, I'll make you strong 'Cause it's those quiet nights they bring you light
