Stop Start

Tell me now you're clear
Why are you dancing
Why are you here
I'm so involved
To know more
All the ways to say goodbye
Miracles intact
Oh it's good
Got to get you somewhere
Cut you off sometime
Got to get you somewhere
Cut you off sometime
Got to get you somewhere
Cut you off sometime
I've got to stop
Start believing now
I've got to stop
Start believing now
And go this way
Oh it's good
The lies we say
Mean more to you
Than they mean to me
The lies we say
Mean more to you
Than they mean to me
But it's good
Oh it's good
You're not so much
Left to me
To see what I've done
I've been so far gone
Just to see what I've done
I waited for hours
To see what I've done
Lift my spirits
There's nothing new
I'll fall apart completely
If you change again
I listen for the song
In what you say
Wait for the dream again
But it's good
Got to get you somewhere
Cut you off sometime
Got to get you somewhere
Cut you off sometime
I've got to stop
Start believing now
I've got to stop
Start believing now
And go this way
Oh it's good
The lies we say
Mean more to you
Than they mean to me
The lies we say
Mean more to you
Than they mean to me
But it's good
Oh it's good
You're not so much
Left to me
To see what I've done
I've been so far gone
Just to see what I've done
I waited for hours
To see what I've done

It Should Be Clear By Now
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe
Words by J. Christopher-Rome
(Copyright Confusion of Words Music)
Every incentive to succeed
All the ambition thriving
Holding through
Move past, over so fast
I'm aware of sand
And aware of what's high
I'm aware of sand
And aware of what's high
It should be clear by now
It should be clear by now
Let's talk
How this pain never goes away
It's taken everything out of place
Try to face it but it won't change
It's not safe
Does it all fade away?
Does it all fade away?
Does it all fade away?
Friends that have been here longer than you
Will still be here longer than you
Just enough pleasure that we breath
Every ambition driving
Holding fast
Look back, over so fast
I'm aware of sand
And aware of what's high
I'm aware of sand
And aware of what's high
It should be clear by now
It should be clear by now
Let's talk
How this pain never goes away
It's taken everything out of place
Try to face it but it won't change
It's not safe
Does it all fade away?
Does it all fade away?
Does it all fade away?
Friends that have been here longer than you
Will still be here longer than you

If You Have a Gun (Show Me Love)
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe

If you have a gun
Show me love
If you have a gun
Show me love
I'm so easy to chase your eyes again
I'm so easy that I'll go through this again
I look a disaster
This panic quickens me
I'll sleep anywhere
Close my eyes again
If you have a gun
Show me love
If you have a gun
Show me love
If you have a gun
Show me love
If you have a gun
Show me love
It's so easy to chase your eyes again
Show me love
I'm so easy that I'll go through this again
Show me love
If you have a gun
Show me love

Rat Souls
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe
Words by J. Christopher-Rome
(Copyright Confusion of Words Music)
Tired
I came to this by looking down
There are worse things to trap you
There is no guilt, no answer
No perfect moment
No perfect moment
Done up
Sad eyes
Hung out
Tired
I won't be coming home.
I find these things are not needs
All the rat souls floating around
All the rat souls floating around
I can be so wrong
Done up
Sad eyes
Hung out
Tired
Done up
Tight arms
Dried out
Storied
I know that blood means pain
I know enough to scream
I won't be coming home

There Is No Pain If You Say There Is No Pain
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe
Words by J. Christopher-Rome
(Copyright Confusion of Words Music)
No contact is necessary now
No conflict is necessary now
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain
It's not what I need
Take it down, down, down
Take it down, down, down
We turn away from all control
Look to the dreams
And adore the past
For what it is not anymore
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain
No control
It's not what I know
Take it down, down, down
Take it down, down, down
Take it down, down, down
Take it down, down, down
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain
No control
It's not what I know
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain
There is no pain
If you say there is no pain

Less Critical
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe
Words by J. Christopher-Rome
(Copyright Confusion of Words Music)
You turn away and face the sun
And everything becomes less colorful
Find the hill that you fell down
And dig a hole to prove your ground
You've come a long way
You've become less critical
It comes from listening to you
Pull against your lies
Push against your lies
Do you know what life you live?
Pull tight the tourniquet again
Remember when you wore the crown
Gave every peasant their sound
A kingdom of song?
Disinterested now as a benefit
The world enough, the world around
Is such a long way
You've become less critical
It comes from listening to you
Pull against your lies
Push against your lies
Do you know what life you live?
Pull tight the tourniquet again
You turn away, and become less colorful

Say You Do
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe
Words by J. Christopher-Rome
(Copyright Confusion of Words Music)
Say you do
To all the fires far away
Say you do
To all the fires far away
I have come home
And I have tried to make this work
Over the threshold
Against the knives held at my throat
With trust on my right arm
Conscience and clear sky and mind
Rust on my left arm
Of all the impatience and failed tries
And it won't show
Another pain is pushing through
But it won't grow
Out of blood and out of hope
No quiet push upon me
All tender remains and the buried lie
Head to hand in chains
I'll take the race, I'll take the time
No quiet this upon me
Compelled to break the chase
When no one tries
Burn the promise of change
And finally hit the ground
At the end of the line
And it won't show
Another pain is pushing through
But it won't grow
Out of blood and out of hope
I have come home
And I have tried to make this work
Over the threshold
Against the knives held at my throat
And it won't show
Another pain is pushing through
But it won't grow
Out of blood and out of hope
And it won't show
Another pain is pushing through
But it won't grow
Out of blood and out of hope
Say you do
To all the fires far away
Say you do
To all the fires far away
Say you do
To all the fires far away
Say you do
Heart to head by chains
Burn the promise of change
Heart to head by chains
Burn the promise of change
Say you do
Heart to head by chains
Say you do
Burn the promise to change
Say you do
(Far... note... fell...)

How Can You Not Love Me Now
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe
Words by J. Christopher-Rome
(Copyright Confusion of Words Music)
I see you
With your eyes open
So damaged and so severe
My eyes, my heart, open
How can you not love me now?
How can you not love me now?
Getting used to a lot of things
I made a sign where I needed a sign
I have to learn to sleep again
I have to learn to drive again
How can you not love me now?
How can you not love me now?
I know you
So sincere in silence at best
I fall apart at every breath
How can you not love me now?
How can you not love me now?
Getting used to a lot of things
I made a sign where I needed a sign
I have to learn to sleep again
I have to learn to drive again
How can you not love me now?
How can you not love me now?
How can you not love me now?
How can you not love me now?

Burned Black
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe
Words by J. Christopher-Rome
(Copyright Confusion of Words Music)
Waiting for tomorrow
I'll wait forever
To make your point
Am I supposed to think before you answer
I'll take this out on you some day
I'll take this out on you some day
You got too close to shake me
You do so well just to suffocate me
Do what you have to do
To leave me
The moment never comes again
The moment never comes again
Beehive and honey
In the lion's dead body
Even in pain it was just enough
What a liar a friend can be
To just get on with your life
Just get on with your life
All in time, all in time
(I believed in you, I believed)
I believed in you
All in time, all in time
I believed in you
The moment never comes again
The moment never comes again
In this fall I'm given
All the right air to breath
Brilliant and contrasting seasons
Coming clean
But you break my confidence
And I'm supposed to think
You'd just get on with your life
All in time
You got too close to shake me
You do so well just to suffocate me
To kill the dreams that chase me
Do what you have to do to leave me
The moment never comes again
The moment never comes again
Waiting for tomorrow
I'll be going home
All in time
This begins to affect my mind
But if we cannot reacquaint
And the moment never comes
Total and complete
All in time, all in time
You got too close to shake me
You do so well just to suffocate me
To kill the dreams that chase me
Do what you have to do
To leave me
The moment never comes again

Call This House By Name
Music by Christopher Moncrieffe
Words by J. Christopher-Rome
(Copyright Confusion of Words Music)
Pretend it's forever
But it's not safe
A measure of where we stand
And what can't change
Things to learn from long ago
Tiny twists and schemes
I'll call this house by name
I'll call this house by name
Found a way to lose myself
Find myself in everything
Takes time to disappear
Plot the lines, build and rearrange
I'll call this house by name
Mouths held together
I'll call this house by name
We're not coming apart
I'll call this house by name
Mouths held together
I'll call this house by name
We can bring this together
Next time you start
Don't lie, but don't tell me
Where is your life with me?
Where is your life with me?
Where is your life with me?
Who laughs, who cries
Who's crying out now?
Who laughs, who cries
Who's crying out now?
Who laughs, who cries
Who's crying out now?
Who laughs, who cries
Who's crying out now?
Where is your life with me?
Where is your life with me?
I'll call this house by name
Mouths held together
I'll call this house by name
We're not coming apart
I'll call this house by name
Mouths held together
I'll call this house by name
