wanna meet
wanna meet
wanna meet the deadlines
can u throw me
can u throw me
can u throw me a lifeline
they raise my heartbeat
raise my bp
raise my bpm
i’m their biggest fan
i’m devout to them
but never there to greet them
poster on my wall
memo on my desk
need a way to find them
need a backstage pass
fire exit glass
never far behind them
they raise my heartbeat
raise my bp
raise my bpm
i’m their biggest fan
i’m devout to them
but never there to greet them
oh…
meet the deadlines
meet the deadlines
gonna finish me
gonna cross me off
‘less i cross that finish line
gonna punch me in
to the paving
punishment the punchline
they raise my heartbeat
raise my bp
raise my bpm
i’m their biggest fan
i’m devout to them
never there to greet them
oh…
meet the deadlines
meet the deadlines

el hombre invisible

i know you’re there
i look you in the eyes and you disappear
spinning off in the air
holding on to the ghosts that brought you here
back to dust back to particles parallel
yours are footsteps on the invisible
staircase in the air
swept you up under the gap under the back door
for a moment
i catch your eye
and in an instant
i know why you come by
take my hand take my hand
lead me off to the other world
you’re treading the air, treading the air
and i’m just trying to keep myself afloat
back to dust back to particles parallel
yours are footsteps on the invisible
staircase in the air
swept you up under the gap under the back door
for a moment
i catch your eye
and in an instant
i know why you come by

you’re on the wrong page
just check the back for the solution
wake up / wake up / wake up / wake up!!!
screw your head on collision
drivin in the wrong direction
wake up! wake up! yeah the hazard lights are flashin!
cuz you are oh you are
you are going the wrong way
you are oh you are
you are going the wrong way
i’ll keep drivin’ all night long
red lights strike me, i go on
i’m on my own but i’m, i’m on a roll
i’m on the road where i’d rather be
i lost the will and replaced it with a way
screw your head on / head on / screw your head on collision
cuz you are oh you are
you are going the wrong way
you are oh you are
you are going the wrong way
you are / you are / you are going the wrong way
i’m on my own but i’m, i’m on a roll
i’m on the road where i’d rather be

why do u fight it when u know that you've got it?
and would you lose it if i told you you had it?
come close to me
my doctor used to be but now a storyteller
he’s writing scripts for people LEFT RIGHT and CENTER
come close to me
come close to me
come close to me
why run away from the things that you’re chasing?
is it the fear that it’s fear you’ll be facing?
come close to me
tell me what you know about me
i’m bleedin but it’s not as it seems
tell me what you know about me
and not the shit you read off that screen
tell me what you know about me
i’m bleedin for a nurse to fix me
tell me what you know about me
i’m lookin like i wanna be seen
