OPEN LETTER

I've been wasting years away in silence
Had to screw my head back on again
I spent some time relearning how to be Levi
And finding out who really are my friends
I've written several songs for you to sleep to
Or maybe even give yr attention
I promise that the words I'll sing are pure and true
But maybe not the happiest they've been
And if you'll really listen
There's something I wanna tell you
It's not an easy thing
To sing
I almost left you behind

Even when I leave my body to a place that I thought I could never go
Something is calling me back to reality before I can get too low
I'm out of the woods, I'm into the dungeon
I'm tryin' to eat, I'm tryin' to function
I promise I ate, I promise I'm fine
I wanna be alone, I wanna live all on my own
I wanna be alone, I wanna throw away my phone
I wanna be alone, inside a dark and quiet home
I wanna be alone, yea I can feel it in my bones
Whenever I'm tryin' not to think of everything that's led me underground
Something reminds me that I can dig myself up if I make a special sound

KEEP ME ON A STRING

If I've been a burden
Then I understand
Maybe someday I'll learn to
Live in my own hands
All of our time together
It was meant to be
Memories I'll treasure now
But if you have to leave
Keep me on string
So many nights you stayed up just to watch me drink
My mind was movin' so fast I could hardly think
Now i know how it feels to lose the one i love
I promise I can change, but if you've had enough
Keep me on a string

Late at night
I hope you hold yrself tight
Angel eyes
The devil sings yr lullabies
No matter what happens
I'm tryin' hard not to forget
It's not the end of the world – just yet
Still sometimes I wish I could relive the day that we met
Double check
That necklace is around yr neck
You're a triple threat
Beautiful, sweet and perfect to me
If now I'm a stranger, and you'd prefer to drift away
It's not the end of the world, I'll be ok
I'm tellin' you darlin', you'll always be my Vermeil

EVIL WINS

I wrote a song in 10 minutes that would take you a whole lifetime
I let the devil sing a lullaby
It was divine intervention that struck a chord and helped me find
A way to live beneath a falling sky
And if the rapture is tomorrow
And I'm swallowed by leviathan
A bottomless pit is where I'll go
To suffer until the very end
Evil wins it always has to in the end
Evil wins (evil wins)
Evil wins (evil wins)
Evil wins

THE ONE & ONLY TRUTH
03:29
|

A collapsing room
I let the walls cave in to make my tomb
Never felt so right
I can't distinguish days between the night
Pressure to consume
Life's moving fast
I'm still in my room
Reliving the past
I'm rotting away
I'm out of my mind
There's no one here to save
(There's) no one left to find
Even in my youth
I disregarded the one & only truth
Life will pass you by
And before you know it you've just grown up and died

THE CROSS / THE BASEMENT
06:33
|
|||
|
Like a fable etched in stone
I thought our story was forever
The fact that I'd end up alone
I would have believed never
Like an icon of the past
Your memory stays true
And if I feel an angel's presence
I'm only thinking of you
In a tower high above I can see you playing with yr hair
Sometimes I wonder if you ever cry, or if you even care
And if I leave this mortal shell behind please don't be scared
I brought this on myself
And this is the cross that I must bear
Like a ship in murky water
A thousand miles away from shore
I just trying to find an island
before I'm thrown overboard
The only peaceful moments when I can finally rest my head
Are when I'm thinking of all those sweet nothings we both said
Being such a jealous bastard really takes it's toll
The gaping jaws of Leviathan are going to swallow me whole
And if we leave this love behind I'm sure you'll find a nice replacement
I found the bottom of the bottomless pit
But I have heard that there might also be a basement
There's a basement
Open the door to the basement
Now I can finally face it
End of an era of my life
Giving my soul to the evening
I can't believe I'm not dreaming
I present my final sacrifice
Keep going, underground,
You'll miss them less if you are not around
