Walked alone again
Nothing to do with an hour to say to anyone
No longer left with second thoughts on mind
Not on mind
Not on mind
It's not mine
Oh it's not mine, believe me
So whose is it?
I don't know
We don't care
One lifetime finished and four left on the side
To follow me there
Cause one of these days
I won't have to cut time
For you stay again and again and again
And I'll settle in
Into the second best
Or whatever is left to forsake it
Just to make sure
That I'll be back (now I know)
Has it come to that?
Yeah, it's come to that again (anyone would know)
And you know everything
And I'm left clueless

Made fun of me for being your friend, again
not like those words had any weight left in them
and I remember
time passes and I guess I never knew you
in any real way
the big, wide and empty
it simply persists
the feeling that you are right
once this story is told
nothing stops it from growing more old
hoarding a treasure
a trove of words never said
no need to bother now
standing here, it just appears all too clear
whatever helps you sleep at night
holding onto those days a little bit too tight
whatever helps you sleep at night
holding on a little bit too
much, tight
I don't know what I want
I'd like to ask you for a favor
to let my words rise to the occasion
because any weight to them
might seem a little strange
something too heavy to believe
but I found out
what I saw in all of them
Isn't what I remembered either way
si mi boca se quivoca
a favor de quien estas
a favor de quien estas
So I leave it all behind
To see what altars truly stay
it's a one sided affair, but it's oh so sincere
maybe it's better to just pack it up my friend
What a fool I've been
Stayed too long in time
Of passing through
But I've gotta move on
Got to get out of my own way
whatever helps you sleep at night
holding onto those days a little bit too tight
whatever helps you sleep at night
i just know for a fact it isn't me

Puppies (Deluxe)

Well we've had a load of fun
But it's now time to say goodbye
The burden capsized and small
perhaps I've outgrown it after all
But echoes of barks and regret
Is all you get to keep
it almost bores me to sleep
The subtext of this song
is something I've thought of
for a little too long
That what you cherish and despise
both will forget you in due time
good luck keeping up
with all trial and error results
not even close to in tune
yeah, getting worse every day
all of my brutal ways
of saving the minimal bit of face
can't account for total loss
No one's fault but MINE
Should have spoken up
When I was afforded the time
so the worst you can do is harm
the fatal habits of misplaced pride
a proficient bit of art
but when I've said enough
I think it's time for me to go
like the day the dogs went home
I think it's time for me to go
like the day the dogs went home
but this is how we learn
this must be how we learn
this must be how I burn
is it gone too fast
