There was a time when it seemed so abstruse,
soiled and unfair
Now that’s diminished, all these wounds have healed
and I’ve got strength to spare
For the first time I feel so free
Regressive thoughts and declining views
have once reeled me in
But tales of conquered self-fidelity
have ceased to begin
For the first time I feel so free
Disheartened soul, submissive carelessness
Gambled away all my rights
There is no battle left for me to decide
Because I have won this fight
For the first time I feel so free

This piece of thread in my hand
is all I have of you
This piece of thread in my hand
makes me sleep a little better at night
And I'll pretend that you are here with me now
I know it won't be long before I see you again
This piece of thread in my hand
brings me a little closer to you
and this heaven that I
seem to have fallen into
Not once this whole time did I move
I was already there
And I'll pretend that you are here with me now
I know it won't be long before I see you again

Downstairs quick out the door
Late morning repertoire
Still idle, still idle
My mood still hasn't changed
I crack a smile not ashamed
I swear it, I swear it
I could have never spoke
I could have never spoke a single word
It always seems as if
It always seems as if you're just a breath away
I know what's on mind
You're simply on my mind, just furtive
Obsessions will not break
Obsessions will not break until I see you
Full boredom, yet I'm content
Not sure exactly where time went
It's standard, so standard
I don't even want to stop
Vivid thoughts just can't be topped
In spare time, in spare time
I could have never spoke
I could have never spoke a single word
It always seems as if
It always seems as if you're just a breath away
I know what's on mind
You're simply on my mind, just furtive
Obsessions will not break
Obsessions will not break until I see you
On Monday, I'll see you on Monday
I never wanted to
I never wanted to
Go in on sweet pursuit
cause I'm not good for you
Conflicting minds who knows
You keep me on my toes
and you will never know
no you will never know
You never let me down
So I'll keep you around
Shack up and shoot the breeze
We'll fill the void with ease
Your face starts off my week
So what if we don't speak
You're just a breath away...
On Monday, I'll see you on Monday

Black Hole

I haven't got a feeling in me
I've got a black hole in my heart
and it's pulling you into it
Suck you into me
I wanna drain you
Take your life away
So I can steal you
Suck you into me
I wanna drain you
Take your life away
I want to steal you
I wish I had some sort of regret
I wish I'd appreciate what you gave me
but I tore you into pieces
Suck you into me
I wanna drain you
Take your life away
So I can steal you
Suck you into me
I wanna drain you
Take your life away
I want to steal you
I want to steal you

Once I knew a boy
Whose life was full of love and care
But there was something they did not see
He was as sad as a boy could be
You're always and forever
You're always and forever
You're always and forever
with me
Once I knew a boy
Whose life was full of love and care
But then he left us without a letter or a cause
Leaving us to wonder why...
We will miss you, Anderson
Our hearts are with you now
We will miss you, Anderson
Our hearts are with you now
And we will never ever forget you
