STATE FAULTS LYRICS

1. Sleepwalker


Goodbye, stay gold
We said goodbye to golden summers
The tide was high, our dreams went under
Holding on to our last breath we walked away
I am left in the wake of this epiphany
That I must walk alone, that I am all alone
That my heart's a haunted home,
And it's all I've ever known


2. Cities


In a city between two failed cities
These kids are drowning
Their anchor eyes are cast to the sidewalk
Beneath a sky full of stars
I just wish you'd make me believe you're someone else
I wish you'd take me for more than a silhouette
Like the white owls, like ghosts in the snow
Like you'll never know
Like diamonds crushing diamonds
Like beauty destroying itself
Your heart's a failing city
So pretend you're someone else
Like the white owls
Like ghosts in the snow


3. Arrowhead


From this desolate peak
I feel the tops of trees pointing back at me
Like a million teeth
Wishing the wind would come and swallow me
I'm cursed to spend this weary life
Throwing ghosts into forever
But they never disappear
They come to life in my sleep shivers
So I'll crack my baby teeth on these platinum dreams
They're falling down, we're falling down
Its so cold I can see my breath, is there a second death?
Is there something I missed?
What have I become?  Am I far gone?
Its so cold and there's nothing left, is there a second death?
Is it something I said?
What have I become? Am I far gone?
Its my life staring back at me
Its this dirt stuck in my teeth
Its these machines hooked up to me
Is this life?  Are we alive?


4. Shiver


[Instrumental]



5. Faultlines


I was sleeping, but my heart kept vigil
Through winter nights, deep rivers
Bitter nights, sleep shivers
Window panes and breathless whispers
Haunt me for as long as you'll have me
I couldn't keep you here with me
I couldn't be your diamond eyes
I couldn't see you through your shine
You cant save me
Don't cry for me
I'm already dead


6. Wayfarer


I cant move on
'Cause everything means everything to everyone
Time bridles dreams like waves decay the coast
We're broken vessels, we're full of ghosts
My eyes are packed with gauze
I don't want them anymore
'Cause what you see is rarely ever what you get or what you want
My lungs are full of sand
I don't need them anymore
Cause I've been swallowed by a sea that I built from my regrets
This cant be the end
These tidal waves are drowning me
They're swallowing up my effigy
This cant be the end
As a whisper in a roar
A death rattle in a roar


7. Teeth And Bones


We're kids without homes
Carrying backpacks full of ghosts
We're drunk driving through our lives
Lives like cities without streetlights
And we're alright
Am I cursed with quivering teeth from the cold trapped in my bones?
With a mouth full of clouds the rain pours in my lungs and I am gone
'Cause there's an ocean inside that pulls at me, its tearing me apart
And every wave is a whisper goodbye, and I'm told to carry on
We're just kids without homes
Carrying backpacks full of ghosts
We're drunk driving through our lives
Lives like cities without streetlights
And we're alright
Cause there's an ocean inside that pulls at me, its tearing me apart
And every wave is a whisper goodbye, its just so hard to carry on


8. Sleeptalker


I never did, I'll never forget
The way the veins burst from your hands
How you were fighting for breath
And holding on when there was nothing left
But bitter nights, sleep shivers
I can hear your voice still screaming
Forever searching for something
I wont let you disappear from my life
This weight upon my chest
"Can you see me?" "Can you feel me?"
Like the rivers we once sailed, I cant stop
Bitter nights, sleep shivers
I can hear you at night
You're screaming "You lied!  You lied!"
"This love was never made for me," so you turn your head and die


9. Hallways


I watched you float away past the terrible machines
From a guilty bride and a heavy heart cemented to my sleeve
I feel your ghost looking down at me and its getting hard to breathe
With you standing on my chest, i guess I'm dying for some sleep
And all the promises we wont keep
Hospital beds, fluorescent white
Your gasping breath, your fading eyes
Begging me, they haunt me every night
The morning light dancing through the blinds
Of the house we built on a love that died
You don't live here anymore, but I still feel you
Deep in my bones
Receiver, receive her
"Level this home"
Just let me sleep here
"Winter is nigh"
I cant leave, dear
Its all in my head
'Cause I'm a hallway lined with ghosts
Can you smile now?
Is heaven what we dream?
Can you forgive us both for being so naive?
For both our selfish hearts, this my apology
Is all I have to give my everything


10. Vespers


The cold crept in the day you left
This shepard's skin wont catch my breath
This silence screams to hold me in
When the sun sleeps I'm alone again
Because there's nothing left
Maybe I'm a wolf seeking blood in shepard's skin
A lonely heart that breaks when the sky caves in
Make my palms bleed by the cracks in your teeth
Smashing my teeth on concrete
Scraping my knees on these worn dreams
These thoughts weigh infinite
Like the sands of the sea drowning me
There was no wreckage, no broken bodies
Just the seeds of regret planted on this burning bed
And you'll watch me burn
Maybe I'm a wolf seeking blood in shepard's skin
A lonely heart that breaks when the sky caves in
Alone like the eyes of a wolf whose lost it's pack
Alone like the eyes of a wolf


11. Skeletons


I feel them caving in
These fragile walls I built from falling stars
From the weight of every wish
That fell on deafened ears and echoed endlessly away
No more desolate peaks
No more wishing that this coastal fog would devour me
I'll wipe the sand from my eyes
And realize you gave me nothing
That I can call my own, nor a heart to call my home
Dreamcatcher, you've lost your baby teeth
So do you believe?
Or have you lost the will to dream?
We're making wishes on dead stars
They echo endlessly, they echo back to me
We're building cities in our hearts
The weight is crushing me, its getting hard to breath
'Cause time cant stay
These feelings so fleeting will all float away
