Control 02:56
One the edge of this bridge Some kinda precipice Still you ask, "Are we going anywhere" You fight, I fight back You bite, I bite back Still you ask, "Are we going anywhere" Is everything under control You slip back and you're slithering Is everything under control This could be the one but you never will know Is everything under control Do you know where we're going Do you know who's still breathing On the edge of your words See through you like water Still you ask, "Are we sinking fast enough" You fight, I fight back You bite, I bite back Still you ask, "Are we sinking" Someone pulled the rug out Someone pulled the plug If this thing's going under, it can't sink fast enough

Avalanche 03:04
Keeping rhythm, seeking words Keeping myself bound to earth An avalanche is coming down Who are you this verse I heard A fire will be reaching out Stretch your splintered spine with words Keeping time with the clocks that you sold Lashing out with a punch that you hold Everyone wants their whole story told Live on and on and on and on and on and on Mother told you to watch all your words Wash your mouth out with phrases you've learned Everyone wants their whole story heard Live on and on and on and on and on and on My mother, she speaks so softly While I sleep, she whispers My mother, she listens closely All my skin, it blisters Unravel your twisted limbs Stretch your splintered spine for him An avalanche is coming down Who are you this verse I heard A fire will be reaching out Keeping rhythm, seeking words

Will you come down and will you open me up Will you fix me up, I'm all wrong They say you formed me from the clay and the mud But I'm all fucked up, I'm all wrong All these pills eating me alive Make me well or waste all my time Open wide, swallow, desperately searching Eyes closed, I follow, desperately give in With a handful of pharmaceuticals They're gonna fix me up, I'm all wrong Plucked from a rib cage with all my flawed DNA They'll try to shut me up, they're all wrong Peel open my head and make me better Shame to stay in bed through all this lovely weather And i'm not waking up Be my foundation when I am toppling over Given up the drinks but i am never sober And I'm not waking up
4.
Can't go back and we never could Can't relax like I said I would I've got nothing to do, I've got nowhere to be Where do we go now And could you look more bored It's first time Will you admit you're fed up For the worst lie I'll watch us writhe some more In the dim light Before I let it die And I know the facts and I wish you would It's a long way down and you shouldn't look You've got thing to say, places you'd rather be Where do we go now I've seen doom and he's coming soon Arms out stretched, he will reach for you Too proud to ever say, to proud to ever be Where do we go now

I retrograde, I wax and wane under your spell And I get so sad knowing I won't see you in hell We are not running fast enough That's enough, alright already Peel my filthy hands from you Capsize all your dreams and let you float away another day A soul to save, is all well that ever ends well Through crashing waves and secrets that time cannot tell We are not running fast enough Calm down We're dead in the water
6.
Will you speak my name or spit it out Tonight I will sit with your ghost And burn your bones Will you see my face or shut it out Tonight I will crawl to your grave Are you afraid Am I the ghost in your house or just an old story you read Are you still shaking it out - all of those ideas in your head Will you give my grace or cut it out Tonight I will dine with your ghost Are we alone Will you walk this way without a sound Tonight I'll sleep next to your bones And haunt your home Never alone, I creep through your home Ask me to leave or make me
