Strange territory Though we've passed this way before Strange territory A thinness I've not known before For I'm a turnhurling madness driving fire upon ice fields of air But she's already gone, taking hope with her For I'm a sting riddled wasp's prey sic'd on by her indifference At least now I get to touch Her wicker face Will you satisfy the urges that you conjure in your night? Will you satisfy my questions crowding every space we share? Will you take my hand or will I still call out your name? Will you wait here wanting something more from me? It's eating me I can feel it chew It's eating me It's violent now Pennsylvania summer, where have you gone? Will you satisfy the urges that you conjure in your night? Will you satisfy my questions crowding every space we share? Will you take my hand or will I still call out your name? Will you wait here wanting something more from me?

It's hard business getting out of bed when you feel like this It's past worth it and it's picking at the seams telling me what I want more I once had a dream To tell me that I'm I'm swimming but I'm four strokes past the bearing I've been And this ocean keeps pushing me out with the tide I feel my cracks as they divide Sold short and anguished All the work worthwhile succumbed to a battle hardly won Bloodshot and spaced out You'll never listen never learn Only teach me what I'll spurn I once had dream Passed through voids and parsed through numbers Can someone tell me where I begin? I'm swimming but I'm four strokes past the bearing I've been And this ocean keeps pushing me out with the tide I feel my cracks as they divide

God is and astronaut I could never see from so far up You fill me up but sometimes you're just too much to bear God is an astronaut I could never hold you up Every time I try I give too much You just can't get enough Of throwing it all in my face You were never there The way you said that you would always be So keep it away from me God is and astronaut I could never see from so far up You fill me up but sometimes you're just too much to bear God is an astronaut I could never hold you up Can I begin again? Get out of my head Get out of my bed Get out of my head Every time I try I give too much You just can't get enough Of throwing it all in my face You were never there The way you said that you would always be So keep it away from me God is and astronaut I could never see from so far up You fill me up but sometimes you're just too much to bear God is an astronaut I could never hold you up Can I begin again?

I've died a thousand times I've killed a hundred too I swallowed all the signs And now I've paid my dues Now ask how all it's gone I say it's all alright But there's no way it's true I hope it might be soon

What if I said there was more to this than you could ever see? Spinning blindly in the dark I pray that you'll just let me be It doesn't matter anyway You never hear a word I say Turned around to see our backs all turned against the chilling sea I leave no stone unturned but tides all churn against my sanity And I am snowblind, seeding, stuck Into the surf I'll cover up Cast aloft to settle down Battered by a furious sound And in the waiting room I found I've got more chance than just to drown Play shy sun high Never could let go Long night starlight Maybe just one more It's times like these that make me wish that this was just a fantasy It's times like these I wish that this was all a dream It's just a dream
