False Alarm

Just someone's name
To some poor doctor who must bring the awful news
No one to blame
So where does all the anger and the pain diffuse?
Into your heart?
Your soul?
A deep dark hole?
A fatal tragedy
With far too much debris
False alarm, but the threat is all too real
And isn't seen till it's too late
Broken heart makes me wish for some control
In this erratic world
You were a light
To many people, but now heaviness remains
And far too young
Without a goodbye or a final word, it pains
Me to wonder why
And how
Could God allow?
It's almost not worth thought
But can't be left unsought
False alarm, but the threat is all too real
And isn't seen till it's too late
Broken heart makes me wish for some control
In this erratic world
That spins faster every day
Our timeless ball
I wish you could've stayed
But we'll all fall sooner or later
So make sure that they know
Into the summer
Let it burn
Into the summer
Let his memory burn
Into the summer
Like a sun
Into the summer
Let it burn
Into the summer
Let his memory burn
Into the summer
Like a sun
Into the summer
Let it burn
Into the summer
Let his memory burn
Into the summer
Like a sun
Your wings will take you far beyond
False alarm, but the threat is all too real
And isn't seen till it's too late
Broken heart makes me wish for some control
In this erratic world
That spins faster every day
Our timeless ball
I wish you could've stayed
But we'll all fall sooner or later
So make sure that they know

You wear your crown
Like someone so sure of their place
Surrounded by
Those who'd never talk shit to your face
Secure in nothing now
You made a final vow
That you don't need us, but look who's come crawling back
The time has come and gone
Your second chance withdrawn
And the sun is blazing on your back
The clouds won't catch you when you fall
What you thought you had now seems so small
And while you drown the oceans rise
Just like Icarus you're still surprised
Simmer down
Before you boil over and make a huge mess
And this story might not make you cry
But the ending, you'll never guess
Secure in nothing now
You made a final vow
That you don't need us, but look who's come crawling back
The time has come and gone
Your second chance withdrawn
And the sun is blazing on your back
The clouds won't catch you when you fall
What you thought you had now seems so small
And while you drown the oceans rise
Just like Icarus you're still surprised
I don't need your half-assed lies
Your decisions will be your demise
Flying solo up so high
Clouds won't catch you, and I bet they won't even try
Just like Icarus
Just like Icarus
Just like Icarus
Just like Icarus
Just like Icarus
Just like Icarus
Just like Icarus
Just like Icarus
Secure in nothing now
You made a final vow
That you don't need us, but look who's come crawling back
The time has come and gone
Your second chance withdrawn
And the sun is blazing on your back
The clouds won't catch you when you fall
What you thought you had now seems so small
And while you drown the oceans rise
Just like Icarus you're still surprised

Just Here

Independence always felt so optional
Something I'd always liked to try
But through circumstances not so optimal
I guess we're just here
Unprepared and understanding none of it
Seems to be the theme this year
Make no mistake we're having such good fun with it
Well, at least while we still can
The sky is blue but so are you
To hell with all those fickle plans you made
They probably didn't matter anyway
You play the part and hope your heart
Can take another disappointment
From the longest "month" in history
Just another Tuesday
Melts into Wednesday
And falls apart into Thursday once again
But thank God it's Friday
That's what they'd all say
A so-called "week end"
But it never really does
So what's your pois-
I mean, how are you handling?
The least we all can do is try
(Right?)
But even that request can be dismantling
When all you wanna do is cry
The seasons change
But we're the same
So say goodbye to old Ms. Springtime
And hello to the brand new paradigm
A rise, a Fall
Reveals the call
Of Mr. Summer, who ain't so far away
But will our inner Winter choose to stay?
Just another Tuesday
Melts into Wednesday
And falls apart into Thursday once again
But thank God it's Friday
That's what they'd all say
A so-called "week end"
But it never really does
Never really does
It never ends
You hope and pray that yesterday comes back
But little do you know the consequence of regression
When all else fails
How do we set sail on a raging sea?
Raging sea
Raging sea
Raging sea
Raging sea
