Don't you look at me
After what you did
It's your fault I’m sick
I'm feeling nauseated
Something is stirring in me
It's crawling and screaming
(Something wants to get out)
Feeling so unsettling
bothers me endlessly
(Anger wants to get me)
Cancer between you and me
Want to know what I think?
(Cancer would be lovely)
Worthless is all you'll be
and all you ever were
(That's what you say to me)
Something is waking in me
It's hungry and hurting
(Got a sense of purpose)
Feeling makes me happy
I forgot what that means
(Something more than empty)
I get to tend to my garden
Flower's a blooming
(Flowers for the deceased)
Fertilized by your body
We work well as a team
(Wish I wasn't dreaming)
Put your name in lights you know
We'd all watch that movie
Psychological thriller
We'd never see it coming

Trip on the Horizon

Never one to go without, I always keep a spare
Glaze the view of my mind, the poison burns me
See me at my lowest high, ought to know it's pointless
Moving forward is unreal, looking back is useless
Keep it going
I'm sure it's alright
Feed my addiction
I can never die
Got my keys under the couch, I’m ready to take off
Dressed in yesterday's attire, set myself on fire
Stare into the westbound sun, trip on the horizon
Living on the Eastern shore, know it could be colder
Keep it going
I know it's alright
Feed my addiction
I can never die

So It Goes

It’s like I’ve been here before
I thought I slammed that door shut
You wanted an encore
You want it no matter what
That angel grin again
Those sweet misleading eyes
And I’m selfish cause I think that I need it
And so
It goes
On, and on and on and on
I wonder why I even try
I could stop but you said no
Did the silver lining lie
When you ran away back home
I think about this all the time
You're never coming back
And I’m selfish cause I think that I need it
And so
It goes
On, and so it goes on
Just like you to
Cut and run from
All you've done so far
Can you face me now?

Cold and Dead

I know you cannot be here
I'm just so tired of being alone
I know you cannot be here
I'm just so tired of being alone
Well the words that we wrote
Can never match the words in our head
You left me your coat
And I still feel cold and dead
Chopsticks and heartaches
Late night alone with my thoughts
Chopsticks and heartaches
Late night alone with my thoughts
The airport is close
And all flights lead out west
You left me your soul
And I still feel I lost the bet.

Looking to the West
Living in the east
The sun hits my chest
The cold hits my feet
Powers out again
Snow on everything
Hope you like the heat
Guess it's not for me
Moving to the West
Goodbye to the east
Whatever it takes
(I) could walk, fly or drive
Gonna quit my job
I don't need the raise
I just wanna leave
(Cause you're) all I wanna see
Made it to the West
Sun rising in the east
Nothing's what I thought
(you're) nowhere to be seen
I found myself a room
I need something to eat
Hope you found your place
Hang in there for me

The Sea

Standing back as the whole world goes down
we all knew but we never cared how
we found out from the sky and the sea
our inevitable tragedy
it's not real if we tell ourselves right
cameras raise to a sky without light
the cold gets colder and colder and colder and cold
the sun goes further and further and further and further and further
(Further and colder and further and colder and further and colder)
wave after wave, nobody is safe Walk, fly or drive, there is no such place
For us to hide away and survive
Are you ready to dive, swim for your life
(Swim for your life, swim for your life, swim for your life)
As the buildings fall into the sea
As mother earth takes back her body
Worlds we made become memories
To lie forgotten and buried at sea
(Buried at sea, buried at sea, buried at sea)
those of you who made it here
low fruit for the trees to bear
hang here now, what else to be
dive into the sea of trees
I cannot be the only one
to admit that we told you so
but the world is drowning now and there’s nothing left to do
Everything is flooding now
And there’s nothing left for you
I am lost at sea
Desolate I see
We are lost and free
Drowning in the end of eternity
To the East and to the West
Nothing made this much sense
To the East and to the West
All the same in the great abyss
To the East and to the West
Nothing made this much sense
To the East and to the West
All the same in the sea

Reverie

I’m so flooded with emotions
I am not prepared for the end
the end of all the things I know
the end of everything
Stomach is turning inside out
and panic echoes in my ear
feeling like my heart will explode
I'm praying out of fear
It's all my fault
It's all my fault
All that I'm missing is you
but you're lost under a black veil
All that was aging is new
but all that I want now is you
The fault is but my own to bear
deny as I may, I don't care
contemplating all my actions
I should have seen the canvas clear
Beautiful as the picture is
Not a soul could tarnish it but
Try as I might, to add a detail
Continue to push the end back
So it goes on
So it goes on
All that I'm missing is you
but you're lost under a black veil
All that was aging is new
but all that I want now is you
All I want in the end is you...

triumvirate of mid-Michigan miscreants

Faultered Step recommends:
Faultered Step bassist Alex dons an acoustic guitar and a new persona under the name ALVU. A more personal and close to the heart project.

An EP from Faultered Step drummer Garrett in his own moniker. Very different from FS but very much a unique voice to be heard.
