The old familiar sting
Puts lightning in my veins
When minutes pass like hours
Until it's mine again
I never thought I'd find myself
In the dark
But now that I'm here
Have I gone too far?
Seems the night is never ending
My heartbeat races away
One more time is what we tell ourselves
Just a scratch across a broken mirror
Try to hold it all together
Afraid of falling down forever
Break the chains
Of the things that hold you down
Rise above and overcome
These fixations
What leads us on this way
Are motivations
But why do we stay subject like we are
You don't know how I feel
To want it so bad
"One more time"'s another lie
Before I hit the ground
Don't you take this from me
When I want everything
When I want everything
One more time is what we tell ourselves
Just a scratch across a broken mirror
Try to hold it all together
Afraid of falling down forever
Break the chains
Of the things that hold you down
Rise above and overcome
These fixations
These fixation
It seems the night is never ending
My heartbeat races away.

Lights shine bright,
Quickly I turn to face
A warm embrace
That surrounds me.
Deep within myself,
I hear a voice;
I hear a calling.
When I open my eyes
My perception is skewed.
My mind begins to greet
My sweet introspection.
How could I ever leave
This detrimental dream?
How do I know this is real?
How do I know that it's not in my head?
How do I know this is me
In this escape from reality?
Aware
Of all I am and all that surrounds me.
Fractal flowers form
Leaving trails inside my eyes.
Hindering time;
Suddenly the walls start breathing.
Reach inside myself
To find what's left of me.
As I search the unknown,
My mind drifts absently.
Drown out my ego.
Losing my sense of self.

What can I say should I turn away
Is this worth our time
I've been here for what seems like days,
If days were minutes
Is anyone catching on
Is anyone out there
Is it still my turn to speak
Or should I start here
Get comfortable
I'll ask you some questions
And make some suggestions
It's time for me to diagnose your mind
Make a little change
To your somber day to day's
What's got you down
is it your reverse frown
You put it on for them
Or is it there
Or is it you
Do you live here to decay
Or are you scared of more the same
I don't know what you're trying to say
Have I lost my mind
Can we truly rebuild
What isn't broken
I don't know why you brought me here
This was my sisters advice
Here' a few things I could say
To pass the time
We all have issues
Thing about the wounds we can't suture
And afraid of the future
In our dreams we live in
Dilated times
Are we making progress
Are we making progress

My sweet heart
You're burning in place, dear
Is everything alright?
Looking back,
You see the resemblance,
Still looking for a difference.
I'll just tell you what I see
In the different faces that you're making.
It's those things that you can't hide,
So let down your disguise.
Stumbling
Tripping over shadows
Of the past.
You took the high road and found yourself at an impasse
(Through impulse).
The lives we live are underwhelming
I need a face that's not condemning
Help me find the missing pieces
Fragments of me before me
I'm all out and you're dragging me under
Just another place to hide
From this view your lights shinning brighter
So let's re-light this fuse
I'll just tell you what I see
In the different faces that you're making
It's those things you can't hide
So let down your disguise
You took the high road and found yourself at an impasse
(Through impulse).
The lives we live are underwhelming
I need a face that's not condemning
Help me find the missing pieces
Fragments of me before me
Lay down your arms and be free
Lay down your arms
The lives we live are underwhelming
I need a face that's not condemning
Help me find the missing pieces
Fragments of me before me

Directions have to be clear,
we've come to a stand still appearance shows
that we care, but the truth isn't there when I look around.
Fumbling the pieces and stumbling to new places,
Can't look me in the eyes,
time wings us and presents us with
different circumstances
we leave together,
but arrive at different times
we don't see eye to eye
losing faith in the amount of times
we can give this another try
Look at us,
are we just insane,
as we, walk away
we fall, we fall
off the map
Let's make this right, and for one more night
(even if it's insincere)
if all else fails we'll indulge ourselves
(maybe we can stand a chance)
we'll make believe that were not in denial
we'll keep it alive
One more time
put it all on the line
you and I
can't be miserable all the time
we won't make this right
we won't be alright
even if it's for just one night
we won't make this right
we won't be alright
even if it's for just one night
words are worthless here
suspended in an instance
words are useless here
until you sink
Call my bluff
we're not strong enough
we think we know the rules but we are never going to see eye to eye just make up your mind
cause baby loving you is like ritual suicide
one white lie
gone awry
Let's make this right, and for one more night
(even if it's insincere)
if all else fails we'll indulge ourselves
(maybe we can stand a chance)
we'll make believe that were not in denial
we'll keep it alive
One more time
put it all on the line
you and I
can't be miserable all the time

Deserters we've been called,
But together we are one.
So stand just one more time.
I know you'll be alright.
In this moment you and I align.
Slowly drifting away from fear
But still unclear how
Our influence gauges things outside of our control
Ageless now in the extent of memory
We must go on
Can't you hear what courage sounds like
To a cadence inescapable?
Both our eyes on the horizon.
There's no stopping our arrival.
So take my hand,
There's no second chance.
We carry with us
The wonders we seek.
When you stop to stare at the light
Is when you'll find your peace.
What doesn't fade in the atmosphere
Will never leave us alone.
Doesn't seem to answer
The questions why.
