-Faux Pas Promises-
Through your eyes I see a city there,
And all I want to do is to get you there
Where the flowered salty sea looms in the air
I knew one day I’d get you there
Memories are various slide shows –
They’re built off a process of what’s known
You can’t escape all things you’ve kept
Because before you know it, it’s all that you have left
When I had to sink to float,
And you became my only hope
The world could fall every night,
And you became a guiding light
I found myself in such lonely place
Drowning in the reflections of your face
The water seemed to hold us both down
In my thoughts and past all sound
When I had to sink to float,
And you became my only hope
The world could fall every night,
And you became a guiding light
Through your eyes I saw a city there,
And all I wanted to do was to take you there
Where the flowered salty sea looms in the air
I never thought I’d fail to get you there

-How Long Was Forever?-
He woke up, and he outgrew:
Silly hearted dreaming, what all little kids do
Those story books never cost a lot,
But his were destroyed or lost in the garage
And sooner or later he outgrew colors and fantasies
He lost his rhymes of orange, pink and milky-cream
His lazy sleepy days, his endless summers dream
The very thought of his stuffed fluffies
And all those years have treated the reformed oh-so well
They’re heavily medicated sans their dizzy spells
And as your mind grows soft and weary, life is only to grow old
All those dreams were lies, and so were your hopes
And sooner or later he outgrew colors and fantasies
He lost his rhymes of orange, pink and milky-cream
His lazy sleepy days, his endless summers dream
The very thought of his stuffed fluffies
And sooner or later he outgrew
And sooner or later pretend just isn’t for you
This time is fleeting, and they all knew
And sooner or later, you will too

-Love Will Tear Us Apart-
*(Lyrics originally written by Ian Curtis and performed by Joy Division)
When routine bites hard,
And ambitions are low,
And resentment rides high,
But emotions won't grow,
And we're changing our ways,
Taking different roads.
Then love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Why is the bedroom so cold?
You've turned away on your side.
Is my timing that flawed?
Our respect runs so dry.
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives.
But love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
You cry out in your sleep,
All my failings exposed.
And there's a taste in my mouth,
As desperation takes hold.
Just that something so good
Just can't function no more.
But love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.

-Dead Romance-
Our destiny, it failed this far, and now, I know why
You put everything off until the end,
And everything remained the same
From safety until now,
We were reducing the speed,
To realize all the terror and were forced to grit our teeth
You’re crazy; I know
You’re dizzy; so what?
You’re lost and lonely but smell like home
Those observations from desperate minds,
They’re are emotionally straining
No one wants to end up here: adrift and paying a toll
I try to reflect on the animal
Perhaps it’s just my way
I try to think it out sometimes, but blurry have become such days
You’re crazy; I know
You’re dizzy; so what?
You’re lost and lonely but smell like home
You’re crazy; I know
You’re dizzy; so what?
You’re lost and lonely but smell like home
And when the suppressed memories spark,
They mentally double for your time
So, perhaps everything within in this design are the things we were destine to find
I realized all our years as our romance died
Yeah, I realized all those years,
As our romance died
I’ll never go back home
I’ll never go back home
I’ll never go back home
No, I’ll never go back home…
