call to arms
j hayes

see, i know what i need
room for me to breathe
freedom to choose the system of choice and be
at peace and alone, or in hiding somewhere in between
please, explain i'm on my knees
everything that i believe in has left my side
cursed and forgotten, I'm broken, and I'm losing my mind

how long must we remain here
in thoughtless devotion
to the promises we've made
that bind our feet as we're sinking
still learning to embrace
dibilitating corruption
when it's this genuine fear
of some violent erruption that holds us down

one more time around
we tell ourselves, yet here we are
hoping things will improve in time
yes they will
once we learn to abandon those surrounded
i've found, only you and your call to arms can save you now

but i don't know anything
except that you're selling out
please go away

like trading insults with an imbecile?
frustrating isn't it, tell me when you've had enough
of this reverberating uncertainty
and i will give everything that I'm choking down

yes, some things may never turn out as forseen
though I prefer never give in or surrender
to anything, screaming in vein "i belive"
like i'm armed and ready for anything
though somehwere I'm still thinking

they're to blame
they're responsible
for this pain
i feel
though in times in ways
almost supernatural
the ground shakes
lays waste to the impossible

once again...

i don't know what to say
i just know not to save
what little we have left for the end
unless we plan to escape



 


too cool for you
j hayes

she waits in line
for answers she'll never find
here i am
here i am
she's said before
there's never been so much more for her
here i am
here i am

she speaks softly so i won't know
i'll try not to be too cool for you
anymore

i'm caught blind
sided by your eyes
so here i am
here i am
though some might say
she'll just throw it all away
here i am
here i am

she speaks softly so i won't know
i'll try not to be too cool for you
anymore

inside out
head end upside down
when i fall away from you
lost or found
sink or swim, i drown
as i fall away from you

i'd like to think there's something wrong with you
but i know there's nothing wrong with you
but i don't know anything anymore

she speaks softly so i won't know
i'll try not to be too cool for you
anymore
i spoke softly to let it go
now i'll never be too cool for you
anymore
