Beautiful, Broken Thing

I've seen your broken heart
Stripped down and sold for parts.
You beautiful, broken thing,
You're a glass doll caught up in strings.
You can't heal your wounds with only tape and glue.
And what they say doesn't matter anyway.
It's time to go.
Let's get our bags and hit the road.
Just kill the lights, we'll disappear tonight.
Secrets lace your heart like vines,
wrapped tight to keep you inside.
Shut your eyes, fight back those tears.
Just pretend it doesn't hurt.
You're living like a ghost, but know you're not alone.
And what they say doesn't matter anyway.
We won't be
Just parts to this machine.
Just kill the lights, we'll disappear tonight.
(Disappear tonight
You and me tonight)
This world is full of wolves
But they’re liars to the core.
They don’t know you like I do.
They just hate the fire in you.
And what they say doesn't matter anyway.
We won't be
Just parts to this machine.
Just kill the lights, we'll disappear tonight.

LYRICS:
All heroes die eventually.
The world is cold, its heart and soul are slowly spinning gears.
And the worst to lose a child:
beneath the ice are the vapors of heaven and hell.
You're laid on these flowers for the fires to devour,
you disintegrate, and you fade.
A mother waits at the door,
watching for her son, for a boy who won't be coming home.
And neither god nor the devil are going to break the rules,
going to rescue you.
The freeway is king tonight.
You're laid on these flowers for the fires to devour,
you disintegrate, and you fade ...
but burn like a beacon to light the horizon.
The night is bright as day - we're awake
And the machine, it carries on.
It never breaks, it will never pause.
Not for the tears of men or gods.
Not for the death of an only son.
(All my life, these TV lights were burning brighter than the sun.)
You're laid on these flowers for the fires devour.
You disintegrate and you fade.
(Burn it down)
You burn like a beacon to light the horizon.
The night as bright as day - we're awake.

A Certain Degree

LYRICS:
When your world disappears,
you'll know it my dear.
It's a certain degree of sadness.
You spend your whole life
erasing what's near,
it's a certain degree of madness.
When your words disappear,
nothing is clear.
It's a certain degree of sadness.
You take your own advice,
such worthless insight.
How do you live with all your madness?
Hide behind your old disguise,
change who you are for your next new life,
no one stays and everyone goes.
You've lost real friends by your selfish trends.
Say how your life is just so right.
You're just so mad and everyone knows.

I still remember that night.
Our stars were so aligned.
Something felt so right,
Like a fire on an autumn night.
Some people go all their lives and never feel this alive.
I looked up to the sky, took a breath and spoke my mind.
The thoughts I hide, if you only knew.
I've been searching through this life, just to find a "me and you".
In this moment, one thing is true:
I'd bring down the sky just be with you.
Can't forget that night.
Those stars, I think they lied.
Should've kept my tongue at bay
But we all have our roles to play.
And the moon was lost in the clouds,
I couldn't find you in the dark.
You're like the ocean, baby.
I'm standing on the shore.
What's behind those eyes, if I only knew.
I've been searching through this life just to find a "me and you"
You want the world, and I know you:
Even if I bring down the sky, it still won't do.
And your eyes are not the same,
Am I just not everything you need?
I wish I could start over again
I'd slow things down and give you the time you need.
And I know you're not the sun - but you're still there in the air I breathe.
It's been some time since I've seen you.
And time has a way of revealing the truth.
It's been some time, if it's all right with you.
I want you to know that I'm always here for you.

2008 - The Coward, The Storm, & The Outlaw
by Renae
Not only is it free, but it's also probably the best post-punk album you never heard. Sounds like 'Envy on the Coast' and 'Underoath' merging to write a cowboy-western rock opera.

One of the most pure and heartfelt pieces of musical literature you'll ever hear. It's Bright Eyes meets Regina Spektor. Kaya of CTS cameos in the track 'Drones.'

These kids are some of the most hard-working, lionhearted artists working. We were lucky enough to grow up in the scene alongside them, then watch them rocket past us and everyone else we know.
