Nothing To Say

I drew a picture for you last night
Hung it up till the paint dried
I couldn't get the shape of your eyes quite right
You know how my stupid imperfections keep me up at night
I can't stop thinking about how you compare everything I do
To a storm, so ominous and breathtaking, so irritating
I have nothing to say
Let's stop talking, If it's ok with you I'll go.
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
I wrote a song for you last night.
Spent 6 hours getting the melody right,
It was a little too depressing, you'd say that's typical.
I don't want to be too upsetting,
I don't want to spill all of my soul,
With blood dripping on the ground from screaming so loud and breaking my throat.
I can't stop thinking about how you compare everything I do
To a storm, so ominous and breathtaking, so irritating
I have nothing to say
Let's stop talking, If it's ok with you I'll go.
I have nothing to say.
I have nothing to say.
I have nothing to say.
I think I'll go.
This is who I am,
I overthink, I'm cynical, I do things wrong sometimes, I break, I spill my guts on stage to people I don't know.
You ask me why I always change my mind and why I'm so goddamn unpredictable
And all I can say is if it's ok, I think I'll go.
Because I have nothing to say.

Monster

If I say goodbye to these monsters could I turn on the lights?
Settle with these demons and stop this fight, could I?
Could I sleep where the ocean tide meets my feet and the moon says goodbye to the sea?
Am I a monster?
So it seems.
A nightmare, lost in a dream.
Am I monster?
Am I just a monster?
So it seems.
Somedays these city lights don't make sense to me, I want to follow a road away from this debris.
Take me wear to the sun it sings to the breeze and forms perfect rays of light, running through my body.
Am I a monster?
So it seems.
A nightmare, lost in a dream.
Am I monster?
Am I just a monster?
So it seems.
When will the day arrive where I don't eat myself alive,
where my monsters die and leave me in peace?
I could stop this fight,
I could stop fighting.

Temporary Life
04:45
|

I remember the street signs as I drove away,
That sunset it will forever be etched in my mind
I guess I'd imagined you'd beg me to stay
You stared into space, I saw nothing in those eyes
Sometimes it's not okay and everything's not right
No I'm it good at change, or with noise in my mind
I'm not our saving grace,
No not this time.
I poured my heart into a temporary life.
Excuse me for being so damn jaded,
Excuse my enthusiasm, it's obviously faded from breaking and shaking and trying and dying, it was all for a temporary life.
My greatest flaw is never giving anything up,
Even when it hurts so damn much
And I'm trying,
I'm trying to heal my mind and this my way,
My way of saying goodbye.

You'll Never Know

Why do you look at me?
With condescending eyes like I'm too dumb to realize what going on. What do you expect of me?
To sit and hold the weight of something so futile?
It's wrong.
You've never been alone.
Always had a crutch, someone safe to lean on.
Don't say I'm in the wrong.
It was my will to survive, that's why I left this all behind.
You've never been alone, and you'll never know.
I didn't want to go.
But it had been years since I had a place that I could call my home.
I couldn't bear it anymore.
My body was so frail from all the meds that I was on.
You didn't want to hold me.
I leaned into to you, and you were gone.
I cared so much about you it was almost it's own disease.
But my will to live finally beat my need for you to love me.
Yes I will sick but not in the way you think.
You'll never understand it and now that's okay.
It's ok with me.

I'm Not Weak
04:43

It's always late at night when these thoughts they seem to culminate.
They almost make sense in my dream like state
The words are so loud, they're so loud in my brain.
They scream if I loved you less I'd be okay.
But you knew it
All I'd ever done is forgive your flaws
You knew it
That I can't help myself at all
Not at all
I finally realize that's it ok to break
I finally realize that it's ok to not feel hate
I finally realize I'm not weak for always forgiving
That I'm not weak
As I walk away I curse the whole universe
For not splitting love is perfect halves so we're equally hurt
I curse myself for heavy thinking,
Feeling all this pain,
It's like a thousand bricks,
A thousand bricks deep seated in my brain
I know who I am and it's okay
I'll love you as I walk away, I'll know you are and I pray you'll find that person someday.
I'm not weak

Hi Thayer, last year I joined your show at the Reeperbahnfestival in Hamburg. I loved it. And so I bought your new record "shaky". And I love it! For I'm a little bit "old school" I prefer the physical CD. In Germany your former CD is not available. So I will buyt it in the US. When do you come back on tour to Germany? I hope we'll meet again. Greetings from Hamburg. Norbert
