We won't close our eyes any time, any time
But our minds unravelling like twine
Drinking brine, we'll see ourselves through the night
If this is not where I wanted to be
At a quarter past nine, or twenty to three
I will lay down and hope for some sleep
[I will lay down and hope for some sleep]
The dreams we can keep replayed on the stream
[Replayed on the stream]
Wake up, it's time for the stream
Abandon your dreams
It's all for the kids
CHORUS:
Maybe I can't save you, but I can do my best to help somebody else
We know the best cure is laughter so pure
And that is what you're in store for for sure
BRIDGE:
We will be the guillotine and separate your sadness from your health

VERSE 1:
You are not the first one to believe in me
Guess something you said though got through to me
CHORUS:
But I'm not my biggest fan even though some days I am
What a paradox I know, gotta learn to let things go
And I'm trying, yeah I'm trying
To believe in me
VERSE 2:
I was not the first one to believe in me
But I'll get on the wagon and in time start to see
BRIDGE:
And to my wife and my little sister, I know you're both my biggest fans
And both my parents are amazing, I know you do the best you can
I've got great friends who all support me, I'm making new ones every day
Don't let these feelings half destroy you, don't let the doubts eat you away
CHORUS 2:
But I'm not my biggest fan even though some days I am
What a paradox I know, gotta take things as I go

Bury me, bury me in a cemetery of symmetry
Line us up like rows of tiny trees
Making mountains from geometry
All creation groans
The saviour waits inside our homes
He watches us, he's taking notes
Who are we when doors are closed
Bury me, bury in a simple tree memory
Watch me break the ground quietly
In a future where we'll never be

With Our Own Hands

VERSE CALL:
I want to stay where I am
I didn't have a stronger plan
VERSE RESP:
Take me back before attack
Because the default
And now it's my fault
You and I aren't so designed
No one's perfect but we're still worth it
CHORUS:
This is how it is and no agenda's gonna fix
Who we are and what we've done
With our own hands
BRIDGE 1:
We are the least of these things
The darkness of our hearts is something we can't fix
On our own
On our own
On our own
But we are not alone
BRIDGE 2:
So wait for me, I don't want to tell you twice
So now we won't survive by ignoring good advice
