Finest Hour

This'll be your finest hour
But you'll run out of time
Cause I know you're a fragile flower
And soon the sun won't shine
And if you see me looking up today
Don't let your eyes be carried away
Like mine
I hear the song you sing yourself
And man, I hope it's real
Cause when you're gone there's no one else
To feel the way you feel
It's gonna take so long
I hope that I'm not wrong
Oh no!
You waited for so long and still the moment never came
Is patience still a virtue if it hurts you all the same?
If you wish upon a star
Your dreams will not come true
But if you're screaming hard enough
Someone might notice you
And wouldn't that be nice?
Someone to give advice
To you
Hey now, settle down, it's not your time
And if it never comes, you'll still be fine
Just take this moment, and make it last
Don't live for the hours, they go by fast

Final Warning

I see a bird flying down
In a mirror of eyes
The moon in the sky becomes clearer when you
Don't know what it's shining for
Soon it'll be time to put down your mirror
And struggle just a little bit more
I see lonely hands
Reaching for a thing to forget
Cause it keeps on happening every day
But it still ain't happened yet
Someone out on the edge of the water
Is begging you to call their name
Gonna keep on drifting farther
Cause it's too simple to feel the same
Got a word everyone wants
On a level that nobody hears
Unforgettable feelings, ever changing fears
Living of the crumbs of tomorrow they swell
Behind a skinny thing that you kept in the corner
Like quarters inside of a broken machine
Paying off the debt of a funeral mourner
Too loose to wrap around your fingers
Are the strands of dust that made you strong
And under the only occupied space you
Put them back where they belong
Choking up on nothing 'til it
All comes up so black and heavy
It makes you smile, and sit, and wonder
Is this what you asked for? And are you ready?
Got a word everyone wants
On a level that nobody hears
Unforgotten feelings, ever changing fears
Unforgettable feelings, ever changing fears

Hearing My Voice

Such a long time to be waiting
And I still don't know when
Every time I get this feeling
I go back to where I've been
Guess it's too late to feel cheated
But it still don't seem fair
I can't ever be defeated
If I really don't care
And I don't wanna come this clean
Tired of hearing my voice
But I'm so sick of what I've seen
That I'm left with now choice
Do you still feel it was worth it
Keeping tabs on every word
Did you think that you'd deserve it,
Keeping track of what you heard?
And I don't wanna come this clean
Tired of hearing my voice
But I'm so sick of what I've seen
That I'm left with now choice
I was half asleep, I was sinking deep
In a little dream I had
When I understood, knowledge came so cheap
And I couldn't help feel sad
All I wanna be is to think I'm free
As I look at what I do
I'm so self aware, I don't even care
What I get myself into
It's a game we love playing
And it's really sad and strange
It's a shame, the things we're saying
Is it ever gonna change?
And I don't wanna come this clean
Tired of hearing my voice
But I'm so sick of what I've seen
That I'm left with now choice

Until I Remember
05:35

The weight that's passing through your mind
Sets straight the thoughts you left behind
You can't remember what you never knew
And you're afraid of what you'll find
It seems like every other day
I'm trying not to slip away
To just hang on 'til I remember
What it is I need to say
It's all coming back to me now
I knew I would figure out somehow
But I'm not ready
I can't hold steady
I'm not ready now
I'm not ready now
But I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
Dry your tears until the colors fade
And if the answer don't come, it's the choice you made
No one hears half the words you say
And the question's not answered, but the fear won't go away
I don't know why you won't give it a try just one last time
I guess you think you've lost your mind
You say the path you chose is the only way to go
And that might be true, but there's so much you don't know
You sit and complain that the pain's too much to bear
But it's a pain that you consciously made yourself aware
I can't comprehend all the time that you spend on this one choice
So much it seems you've lost your voice
Sweet little one, are you coming undone?
Well please don't lose your head
I guess now and then it's okay to pretend,
But your fantasies are dead
Won't you smile?
I know that things might take a while
But maybe it would all be worth it
If you would simply let it go
Isn't it strange how things never change
In quite the way that you want to?
I never see you looking at me
And I can't say that I blame you
Because there's nothing left to say
