Aqueous (2009)
Dave's Song
You might find sunshine in a box
But then all the people will start to talk
Of what they've found at the end of the day
But then I would have to say
That you would have to be insane
To stand in the pouring rain
And I wish that I could know All there is to know
Waiting on a painting of the sun
To fall on to the lawn
And if it burns all you know
Then there's nothing left to show
But the world so upside down
Spinning along and around
And I wish that I could see All there is to see
Know, there is to know Know, there is to know
Mind Games
Crooked signs and street lights all just pass me by
I slip inside your world that's quickly changing mine
And it's alright because I got your back and you've got mine
Just slip inside and groove your mind down
So down I go The sights and sounds that I've been shown
They hypnotize And cast a shadow on my eyes
And I can't see
You're making it perfectly clear to me
That it's alright, that it's alright
My mind breaks open like water in the sky
My thoughts keep growing and changing all the time
Like waters flowing I'll show you what's inside
My thoughts keep growing and changing all the time
Mice
How many wrongs until its right
How many times have we hit that light
How many days inside my car
If you couldn't hide your unsightly scar
And it seems you've changed today
But if the cat is gone the mice will play
Nobody cares what you think
And you make it better with the devils drink
And it's hard to say that nothing's changed
But nothing could ever be the same
Because of all the sins that you owe
Well I don't believe that no one knows
And will the true come back to haunt you
I know the truth can set you free
Or will the true come back to haunt you
I know in time that we will see
And who's to say what we were there for
And who's to say what can't be said
All the questions you couldn't answer
All the thoughts inside my head
But are you even being honest
To yourself and to your friends
No you're not even being honest
It will come back to you again
In time we learn to grow (every time we pass go)
And the ending no one knows (when your true self shows)
It's in the choices that you make (it's more than a mistake)
You only get what you take I know in time you'll break
Falling
I tried my hand and made a plan
But it just fell apart
It's just too hard to get you right
And I can't find the way
But if you see me falling then you know I won't get up
In life you learn to work it out
But often times you'll fail
And half the time we criticize
Instead of watching out for your mistakes
But if you see me falling then you know I won't get up
So if it's all inside the mind
And all the fears I had inside
Won't manifest until I die
Was it even worth the time
The days will change but I'm the same
And nothing here was real
And all the walls come crashing down
And I just can't get out
But if you see me falling then you know I won't get up
So if I ever get the time I'll try to make it worth your while
I'll keep on running till I die
Was it even worth the time
