No Need

Recorded at Caffé Vivaldi, New York City on November 2nd, 2009

Lyrics:

Too many years lost
Lessons never learned
Too many promises
Bridges that were burned
We speak of happiness
As something that we've earned
We're sleeping back to back
Wishing that one of us
Would have the guts to turn and see

No need for us
To wait for the rising sun
Now perhaps I'm the one that's faking
But if I closed my eyes like you
We wouldn't be fading

The sun is rising
Seeping in
Shadows cut across your skin
I wanna give in
These thoughts won't let me go
They follow me into another day
A hollow shell fading away

Too many years lost
Lessons never learned
Too many promises
Bridges that were burned
We speak of happiness
As something that we've earned
We're sleeping back to back
Wishing that one of us
Would have the guts to turn and see

No need for us
To wait for the rising sun
Now perhaps I'm the one that's faking
But if I closed my eyes like you
We wouldn't be fading

No need for us
To keep staring at a blackened sun
Now perhaps I'm the one that's faking
But if I closed my eyes like you
We wouldn't be fading
