Dirty Love

Right on time to see the show
It’s been a while, you’re in the front row
A crazy silent stare
Your hands shake, gets hard to breathe
And now you're wired and you're freakin out
Feel alive, if just a little
Look around, far from divine
Kid, end all this sittin around
Dirty dirty love
Veil it somehow, urge is louder than thunder
Fuel the fire in your heart, toss the dignity, restart
Dirty dirty love
Feed off the rush, the perfect friend
All senses on alert
Just conjure up your fantasy
Help is on the way
Desperately trying to wind yourself
Help is on the way
Devil’s in sight to mask the wound
Crash, you’re overcharged
You’re right on the money again
And your antics delude you
Gotta save it up, gotta give it up, get in
Now you’re wired and you’re freakin out
Go the mile, make it official
Final call, you’re out of time
Stand down, got your head in the clouds

You Are Untitled

Just do what you have to do
But at the end of the line when your best is overthrown
Revalue
Memory's pacing slow
Live in the clouds
You're always stuck inside the roundabout
A no-escape maze is leaving out the clues
Just when you have it all figured out
Wish everything just bounced right off of you
Simply let it be, it can last forever
You'd never assume control again
Wave it all goodbye and salute an end
Make amends soon
The ghosts from your past conducting
Starting anew adamantly
Opponents now block the view
And if there's reason enough, let the questions overflow
Who are you?
What is there left to show?
A face in the crowd

Lifeline

Straight till morning it will bring
The quest within, what could have been
Catch the lifeline
A great escape for miles to see
Not all about just being short out of time
Dealing with a short fuse, I can never reach you
Living with the now-gone sour
Soon infects each passing hour
Laying down the hard truth, what won't kill will trick you
Run with this idea today
Target change some other way
A simple task, a simple mind
Each of your senses feels the rush
But always desire to give it up
Let go your defense
Gotta keep it all together, think it through
Gotta get a little further, better view
Once in a lifetime's not enough for you
Bits and pieces, they will sting
There's never really any answers
Just stretch out your real fright
Never meant to back down, not a controversy, can't be truly sorry
Grinding down the sick mood, wrapped around what’s untrue
This is all I ever had and you will never understand
Never let your stride choose, it will never miss you

Headroom

Dive in the craze, be part of the scene
Spring about, free from enclosure
Down the runway slide
In the zone, a parasite
Million miles away from home
But the world has got you
Ride the city at dawn, watch it swallow you whole
There’s nothing that you need to undergo
You’ve thrown all sense right out the door
Take a look, you’re your own imposter
Stuck inside, one-room hospital
Genuine beauty has been slaughtered
You sure know how to make it count
Won’t take much to figure out
You’ve become so unmerciful
Settle in, misuse the clout
Every move so mechanical
Got this far, making the headroom
Rising star, greeting with headlights
You won’t survive at all at this rate now
All you need to believe is every step has simple order
Live these very short times
One more clone, a socialite
Masking of your overtone, they’re mad about you
Enjoy the encounter when they beg and you cower
Tell me what it is that I don’t know
Side of this fence, you’ve been before
