Safety Pin

To my American friends,
Peace and forgiveness yet, we can’t understand
In a nefarious sense,
Anchor thoughts to fears and what do we have left?
We’re falling asleep again
Far from numerical sense,
Ration feelings and then bury them in the past
Cause for concern in the end,
Make it or break it all that matters is where we land
So take me from now and then
I can’t run
I’m pulling the safety pin
And I can’t run
I’m banishing all regret
I can’t run
I’ll stand and face my fears
And I can’t run
There’s solace inside your head
I’m falling down

Hello there, tell me everything
That I belong here, restless in refrain
Through the snow here, the cold begins to change
me as I seek for, beauty through the pain
Hello there, they say it follows me
Within my bones they found it in my genes
Its like a whirlwind I should know
As I fall asleep with thoughts of everything
And I should go
But I can’t escape these walls surrounding me
It's best you know
To make believe ain’t all its said to be
Goodbye for now
I’ll say it like it will last forever, forever, forever
A satellite can’t fall forever
Another right has left me here and now
In my mind, a false surrender
I’ll take the fight to reign the strength I know
The satellites can never bring me down

This application denied
Misrepresented by wolves in disguise
Commiserating it all
A masquerade of collective windfall
The art of separating moments from ourselves again
We are compassion in these moments
Where our lives begin to bend
When the shortest breath in history
Can fill my lungs and keep me safe
This time we’re breaking the code
Fray the seams of a broken support
Let’s take it straight from the heart
Straight to my brain before we lose control
The art of separating moments from ourselves again
We are compassion in these moments
Where our lives begin to bend
When the shortest breath in history
Is forcing down the darker side of me

You are Heaven

Take this life I live and paint a picture in my mind
Frame it my dreams, remind me that is my life line
Daylight is breaking
Today in the making
Pleased to say
The ground that we’re breaking
This life that we’re building
Here to stay
Counting backwards down from this stationary day
Until the moment I feel at home and in my place
Here we are something
Yet here there is nothing we can’t say
I feel like the honour is to be your father
Every day
Silence is golden but
It's the in between that I pay my mind
You are heaven, you are heaven
Let’s take the long road
You are heaven, you are heaven
And it’s the life we know
As we wind our way through the maze of days
For the ones we love, for the give and take, because
You are heaven, you are heaven
Let’s take the long road

When you're drowning inside of yourself
Feeling too far away in your head
Burning a hole through your plans
Its tearing me away from you
Away so soon
Because I circle the thoughts in my head
Holding my heart in my hands
Searching to find the right words
To tell you I’m awake for this
Awake for
So when you’re lying alone in your bed
Grasping at all that you can
Know that I'd give my own hand
To take it all away for you
Away for you
Will you follow
Sleepless shadow
The light will come tomorrow
I’ll follow
Sleepless shadow
The callus heart won’t let go
Follow, I follow
Sleepless heart won’t let go
Well I remember when I was a kid
Holding your hand on my head
Taking away all I dread
A feeling that I need from you
Tell me I’m awake for you
'Cause I’m drowning inside of my head
Holding my heart in my
