Stillness

Under the surface you struggle for a bit
When the hard part is over the tension quit
In so much water your tears can't be found
Now sway side to side, face down
I can't help but feel
The world is brighter now that you're still
We'll go for a ride, I'll drive your car
Leave it to rust in some junkyard
Find you a place where you'll always hide
That's keeping consistent with my alibi
I can't help but feel
The world is brighter now that you're still
Now that you're still
Now that you're still
Now that you're still
Now that you're still

Tension

It's out of the way, I'll be okay
So long as tension doesn't get in the way
Scrounging up from the ground, No I can't be found
Quickly turning, no I can't silence the sound
Keeping close to the chest, soul gets no rest
It's been calling, aching to put me to the test
Keep away from the wall, must get rid of it all
Slipping downward please don't save me from the fall
It's all right, the doors and the monsters locked tight
Whoa now, as it goes, deep down the energy flows
Can't go back so I run, face the fate of a gun
Crossing their line makes me out to be the one
Collapsing in on myself, straining my health
Can't get out and now I'll have to get by on stealth
I went against their rules, some would call me a fool
No understanding and they make me out to be so cruel
No sympathy, no enemies, I didn't do
No I really didn't do it
It's all right, the doors and the monsters locked tight
Whoa now, as it goes, inside the energy flows

Holiday

Hide away, holiday
Get yourself, get yourself, on his way
I'm nobody to you, you're nobody to me
Get away, get away, on his scene
Stomping boots, big blue suits
I can say, I can say, on his route
They stop you in the alleyway
Ask you where you was on Sunday (on Sunday)
You tell them the whole damn truth
But what's he gonna do?

Judgment

Justice weighs how each story goes
Measured with what is known
Who's the cause? Is it in this song?
Give it pause, lest you get it wrong
I give my testimony, let me speak at length
I hope with your attention it'll give me strength
Oh yeah....
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
I have no doubt I can put shadows into your decision
Make you think my innocence is evident in this situation
Corroborate to the date, no abate
There's my fate served up on a silver platter
Wrangling the lies, no reprise
Look into my eyes and say it doesn't matter
(Judge)
I will tell you now what it is that I will do
All attention, no suspension, intervention
Won't be told that this is out of the blue
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...

Justice (+ Reprise)
03:53
|

I only got one shot at this
Hands are shaking, heart is racing
All the joy that I am chasing
If there's only one thing I'd miss
It's not getting a second chance to experience
This second bliss
You know I can't stop dancing
It's a symptom of the causes
To believe in life's romancing
An irritable shiver trickles down
The best of my intentions
Serves to turn my joyous smile into a frown
Call me a liar, I know I'm right
There's no chance to win this fight
I once had a way to live again
But now I know, don't have to wonder when
Excitement's splitting through my veins
Can't keep steady
And it's driving me insane
I just want to rest my body flat
Can't do it while I'm moving
What would my conscience think of that?
Motor functions out of control
I'm remembering what I didn't do
And it's not the story I told
It's all a fabrication made up by the brain
I'm not the deeds that I have done
This last act will shut out their disdain
One way to go, it's a better way
It's in my control and they say that's not okay
I can recall the rising tide
Maybe if I show, luck will be on my side
(Reprise)
Now that I'm still, now that I'm still
Now that I'm still, now that I'm still
Now that I'm still (now you can't go back)
Now that I'm still (it's a simple fact)
Now that we're still, now that we're still
Now that we're still, now that we're still
