Laredo – selft titled EP
song one
open the door, let your light shine on me. i’ve
wasted time,
worthless words of my past. I come to you, a broken
spirit on an
empty floor. but i keep running away inside, and i’ve
just found
a way to make you not my own. but i can’t stand this anymore.
and i’m so tired of useless words. so come and take
my hand, hold
it tight. i’m a bird with broken wings
song two
i didn’t see the sun come out today. you’ll turn the
book to watch
it fade away. from broken stones to broken bones
alike, they are
all comforting, i felt the wind blow and watched you
turn around.
i’m dangling. i played the jokes to fall right on my
face. it’s
comforting. can you get out of bed knowing what was
wrong a
symbol of truth? the stained glass window speaks it
from within,
it’s all comforting, in times i’ll sit and watch the
rain fall. i hope
that you’re alright, to see you fall right on the
ground with your
face right down and out.
song three
you’re trapped by an unseen captor, it makes for
uneasy times.
does he hold you with honest laughter? cheating is
such an easy
crime. it’s not alright to feel sorry for me. save
your pity for the
rest. just remember the best lesson learned, was the
one you taught
yourself. i’m back again. you’re waiting for me with
all the letters
that i sent to your door. i’ll rest assured i know
you’ve read them
and fell in love with the perils of war. i’ll watch
you change from
girl to martyr.
i’ll watch you die for some noble cause. i’ll turn
back time. i need to tell you i really love the way
you’ve changed
all the laws. the people see through your eyes. it’s
not that bad in
your eyes. the stars above shine their light. the
people see through
your lies.
song four
as i lay i follow a faint whistle. as you hear my
concerns i’m thankful.
song five
she walks a lonely path at night, and she’ll never
wonder why. she’s
heading right back where she’s going to. and this
dreary august
day finds her right back in her place. she never even
wanted to be
here. rescue me from the lies of this world. and i’ll
promise i’ll be
everything you see. i’ll be right there waiting.
another season has
come and past, and all the days have gone so fast,
and her weary
heart breaks and beats again. and maybe dreams aren’t
so bad, and
maybe nights just go on waking up and worrying about
things, and
i don’t even think i remember how the story goes…
