Half Empty 05:19
lyrics

They believe in me As often as they try They know not the burden They can’t look me in the eye Sever my affections Without ever standing by I’m always the last one to smile But the first one to cry Return the heart Before it’s past its better days Catch you in the moment Sit beside me, stay Children crying because Their mother’s gone away She’ll be gotten soon At the rate she’s whispering She’s whispering Whispering Chorus She’s free Lovely Help me I’m half empty My sweet Something I’m weak And half empty This sweet illusion you Control the petty mind Your eyes seductive But your heart is all but blind Your life begins to crumble between your fingers and your thoughts All will fall to pieces if you try You could crumble it to pieces if you tried Chorus Bridge The wait is almost over Then they’ll see in time Then they’ll see in time The world is on your shoulder And they’ll see this time And they’ll see this time My reflection sends me Staring back in time As a younger man I never questioned why Someone tells me As I weaken deep inside It’ll follow you forever No leaving this behind No leaving this behind No leaving this behind Can’t leave it all behind Can’t leave it all behind Chorus Bridge

Time 05:10

Twenty years have come to pass And this place hasn’t aged a day Faded writing on the glass The room is smaller than I remember We’ve chased time It’s passed us by We all grow old Or so we’re told It takes its toll Chorus Your love has such a bitter taste Sweet innocence, alas, erased Keep on living if you dare Believe those memories will take you there It’s the hardest days we spend To cling to a love that never ends How was it everything you dreamed When nothing’s ever like it seemed Though time’s changed me To the one that got away It’s safe now to return here You don’t recognize the face That you admired when I was younger We drift apart It breaks my heart I need to know The love you’d show To let me go Chorus Time won’t heal these wounds These self-inflicted scars of mine We’ll change with the seasons Build upon the heavy line And when you go away I’ll be here to stay If there’s no more words to say We’ll save them for another day Goodbye Goodbye

Bring It Around 06:51
lyrics

God only knows where I’ll be in the morning This time I guess I’m on my own I think I’ll be just fine Mother, don’t be afraid I’ve got to go today I’m never coming home I’m never gonna stay This dirty sound it feeds my soul A crowded place I can call home This dirty sound it feeds my soul A crowded place I can call home Chorus Here she comes again I’ll be here waiting for You to being it around If I fall again You make sure, babe That I turn it around Going down to Georgia To die Westward to the Dakotas To see an old friend of mine Brother, meet me in LA I rest my soul on fame I’m headed to Philadelphia To stay This dirty sound it feeds my soul A crowded place I can call home Chorus I’ll wait a lifetime to be right, yeah To move somewhere out of sight, yeah I’ll wait a lifetime to get high, yeah It’s much too far for me to see To tell me what I shouldn’t be Oh yeah Oh yeah I’ll wait a lifetime to be right, yeah I’ll wait a lifetime to be right, yeah Chorus The sun turned off again I’ve fallen too far To bring it around Have I lost you, friend? When I hit bottom Maybe I’ll see you around

Eyefly 05:24
lyrics

Behind those eyes Lie worlds beyond our own A gentle stare, heavy Makes me feel like home This love that I know nothing of I feel no fear Spoke so soft Whispering lonely in my ear Aurora streams of light Listening, holding tight They leave me not where I lie Die Chorus Sleepless and alive Feeling your light on high Be somewhere I like I Eyefly These oceans deep I’m afraid I’ve fallen to the dark Angel, scarred angel Who keeps my heart Season’s eye, open smile That melts my dreams away And emptiness, to seek regress Your truth shall have its day Never lessening doubt Please don’t burn out loud Dying from inside out Doubt Chorus Into the lonely night The reason I doubt I can die Diamond in your eye I Eyefly I can’t control myself (Get Away) I’m watching you I can’t control myself (Get Away) I’m watching you I can’t control myself (Get Away) I’m watching you I can’t control myself (Get Away) Control myself Chorus Chorus

Silence 04:11
lyrics
buy track
All alone in this empty place My living boundary Can I disappear without a trace? Be just a distant memory? Keep my body through the night Return me to my sacred sorrow Save me should I lose this fight And dust will cover all we know Chorus Lay me down Without violence Laying face down In the sound of silence Does it hurt to go alone Watch from a distance I can’t do this on my own When you’re gone in an instant Chorus Believe in me Red sun horizon Across the sea Resounding silence Keep dreaming Keep dreaming Keep dreaming Keep dreaming Keep dreaming Keep dreaming Keep dreaming It’s only a dream after all Chorus It’s over now End your defiance Call on your own black cloud For comforting silence Agony ceases You made a difference Rest in pieces Until we meet again It’s only a dream after all It’s only a dream after all

about

The Phoenix Bridge image

The Phoenix Bridge

Loud and soft. Off kilter, but on point. Perfect imperfection. A constant regrowth of musical scar tissue. An infinite pattern of destruction and rehabilitation. Contradiction, yet making complete sense. Not Grunge, just Crash.
