1. For a long time we stayed down and all we said was sleep alone. Watch the city fall with those eyes so low. Watch the sunlight, watch it go. Watch the storm rise. Watch the storm fall. Watch the storm rise… I watch the storm fall.

(Mere Anarchy, Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt LP, 2018)

 

2. Come take these days away, load me up when skies are grey. Blue moons are falling now through all the years we wondered how.

(Blue Moon, Destroyed LP, 2011)

 

3. Open to everything happy and sad, seeing the good when it’s all going bad; seeing the sun we can’t really see, hoping the sun will at least look at me. 

(Slipping Away, Hotel LP, 2005)

 

4. A fine line will set you apart, swallow my name, swallowing down.

(A Case for Shame, Innocents LP, 2013)

 

5. I don’t want to swim the ocean, I don’t want to fight the tide, I don’t want to swim forever. When it’s cold I’d like to die.

(When it’s Cold I’d Like to Die, Everything is Wrong LP, 1995)

 

6. Hold myself up ‘til tomorrow hold me down again. Feel the darkness coming over, see how it begins.

(Machete, Play LP, 1999)

 

7. Slowly rebuilding, I feel it in me. Growin in numbers, growing in peace.

(We All Are Mad of Stars, 18 LP, 2002)
