Some Time
00:48
|

|
One more final wave
To surf to the shore
You may look cool but your insides
Tell me more
I've been drinking like hangovers are on holiday
When you're gone sometimes
Time will fade away

Fever American Dream
03:28
|
|||
|
Broke your leg on a burnt out tree
End of the world, I guess we'll see
Sometimes you gotta use a sword as a stick
But I've grown tired of that trick
Speak of the devil, the devil in me
Avoid the void on your TV
I'll be the first one to admit
When I was young I talked some shit
Fever American dream
Get what you want, not what you need
So throw your hands up and feel the heat
Let the dream melt reality
Built a shrine all to yourself
A wall around everyone else
You keep pretending everything's okay
It makes me sick, your birds of prey
Fever American dream
Get what you want, not what you need
So throw your hands up and feel the heat
Let the dream melt reality
And you wring out the truth
And you dry out your lies
Pick and choose the news
Ignore what you don't like
Fever American dream
Get what you want, not what you need
So burn the house down, you bought it cheap
Let the dream melt reality

Want
04:10
|
|||
|
I just wanted to be happy
But no one ever showed me
I went to show up at the party
But the house was empty
So I thought I'd roll the dice
Take a shot, and say goodbye
Because I am too damn tired to bounce back again this time
I wanted to see you
Even though you'll never love me
I want to lay out in the field
And pretend it's still sunny
And I noticed that you've been low
Even though you're still stoned
Because I can hear you cry when Lucy's smiling in the sky
I just want to see the seaside
Before it gets stormy
But the red tide closed the beach
Why didn't you warn me?
And how much have I had to pay?
For loving things I push away
And I wonder what has been the cost for locking my heart in a box

Buy The Ticket
04:26
|
|||
|
You're the one that I want but not the one I need
I keep getting hung up on what entices me
Is this love or is this fire, I ignore the warmth
I don't know what I feel, except I feel stuck
Buy the ticket, ride the ride, my best friend said to me
If you're the carousel then I can't keep from circling
And if I spin a bit more than what I had in mind
Chock it up to forced expansion, hold on to the ride
Promised I wouldn't feel much when I saw you again
You look happy, now without me, another vow broken
As the car rolls back into the station
Uproot all the furniture, paint the ceiling red
Even if you insulate, you might still hit your head
Another babe will find you and hang out past the hour
You can run but you can't hide while forfeiting your power
Promised I wouldn't feel much when I saw you again
You look happy, now without me, another vow broken
As the car rolls back into the station
And I wanted to tell you
You're the one that I love
I wanted to buy flowers
But got stuck in the mud
And I wanted to tell you
That you're the only one
I wanted to stick by you
But I know that you're gone

Break The Ice
03:48
|
|||
|
The galaxies inside your eyes hug the stars all in the sky
The color of the sea after a storm
I feel the spin of the orbit- the whole world lives between your lips
The world lives in a promise of a kiss
And I sharpened the edge with all those words you said
All those words I read inside your eyes
And if I press the point, will it just serve to annoy
Just serve to unwind the string
Still I'd do anything to break the ice with you
Still I'd do anything to break the ice
To break the ice
To break the ice with you

The Final Hallelujah
04:37
|
|||
|
Plucking my guitar, all I hear is weeping
Bullet through your head, bullet through my heart
Started out so sweet, life can make you sour
The hallway in our home, that stretched out for forever
Sat behind you while in class
Stolen sentences and laughs
I once knew you more than that
Set the table, serve your lunch
Have a seat, the only one
In the cafeteria
You talk to the world, you hold up a boulder
Keep on looking at the demon on your shoulder
I sent up a prayer under neon lights
Dragging through the streets, the final hallelujah
You and I got in the car
Hit the gas and drove so far
To the middle of nowhere
Searching for answers in the wind
Blowing on my naked skin
In the juniper forest
Clutch the handle of a locked cathedral door
Survey the Sistine, vandalize the ceiling
Stories can be cruel, omit what isn't needed
Will we die of thirst, seeking the idyllic?

Love, don't go
Please stay home
I need time
To rewind
Fear, don't leave
I'm in need
Look inside
I can't hide
Fate, don't run
Wait, have fun
I wanted to
Spend my life with you
Hammock hangs loose
King of the porch
You were strumming guitar
and singing the chorus
You beat the world, but took yourself out of the game
Weighing a fight
And lighting a match
While cutting the cord
Becoming detached
You beat the world, but took yourself out of the game
Hammock hangs loose
King of the porch
You were strumming guitar
And singing the chorus
You beat the world, but took yourself out of the game
Weighing a fight
And lighting a match
While cutting the cord
Becoming detached
You beat the world, but took yourself out of the game
You beat the world, but took yourself out of the game
Tighten your grip
And sold the porch
You broke your guitar
Broke up with the chorus
You beat the world, but couldn't find harmony
Heard the song
And quit the band
Sixty-five
Lonely old man
You beat the world but couldn't find harmony
You beat the world but couldn't find harmony
Tighten your grip
And sold the porch
You broke your guitar
Broke up with the chorus
You beat the world, but couldn't find harmony
Heard the song
And quit the band
Sixty-five
Lonely old man
You beat the world but couldn't find harmony
You beat the world but couldn't find harmony
You beat the world but couldn't find harmony

My life began when I met you inside that bar
The sound of kids outside decorated your smile
Fall asleep to the waves, dream of me as you go
I never wanted to fit in, just to be known.
My life started when I met you
I'm terrified of what I'll lose
How can I keep from reaching?
It's a party town, don't you know?
I'm only here for a while
I just wanna have some fun
Before we run out of time
I tried to bottle up your scent under the sand
The message washed back up into my open hands
To see the break more clearly I tied back my hair
Even in paradise you see despondent stares
My life started when I met you
I'm terrified of what I'll lose
How can I keep from reaching?
It's a party town, don't you know?
I'm only here for a while
I just wanna have some fun
Before we run out of time
I got caught up in your arms
Promised I'd keep my distance
1987 reigns supreme
When you're plugged into the dream
Tell me we'll never leave, we'll ride until the end
Our love's a place on earth that feels like heaven
Tell me we'll never leave, we'll ride until the end
Our love's a place on earth that feels like heaven
My life started when I met you
I'm terrified of what I'll lose
How can I keep from dreaming
It's a party town, don't you know?
I'm only here for a while
I just wanna have some fun
Before we run out of time
I got caught up in your arms
Promised I'd keep my distance
1987 reigns supreme
When you're plugged into the dream

Every step of the way
We walk the line
Your days are numbered
So are mine
Time is piling up
We struggle and we scrape
We're all boxed in
Nowhere to escape
City's just a jungle
More games to play
Trapped in the heart of it
Trying to get away
I was raised in the country
I've been working in the town
I've been in trouble since
Set my suitcase down
Got nothing for you
I had nothing before
Don't even have a thing
For myself anymore
Sky full of fire
Pain pouring down
Nothing you can sell me
I'll see you around
All my powers of expression
And thoughts so sublime
Could never do you justice
In reason or rhyme
Only one thing
That I did wrong
Stayed in Mississippi
A day too long

Even If I'm Far
02:58

Please take me back in your arms
Back where I belong
Forgive me for being wrong
I'm sorry for what I've done
I finally understood myself
Oh, iris of mine
I never wanted to leave
And yet I still said goodbye
And even if I'm distant
It doesn't mean I don't love you
And even if I love you
It doesn't mean it's enough for you
I can't stop thinking about
The way you looked at me
I can't stop wondering
What I may be missing
And even if I'm distant
It doesn't mean I don't love you
And even if I love you
It doesn't mean it's enough for you
But I would hate to peel away
The years that we accumulated
Just let me peel a clementine for you
You're near me when you're far
I'm near you when you're close
I'll try to close the gap
But is my love enough
You're near me when you're far
I'm near you when you're close
I'll try to close the gap
But is my love enough

Self-Conscious Dancer

Hey kid, standing in an art gallery
Tracing colors that no one else can see
And don't be afraid to run, afraid to smile, or be a Pokemon
You washed the dye out of your hair
You found yourself a new connection
Do you feel afraid to sleep with your old friends
And I'm scared to do it too, afraid to lose someone I knew
Cause I know the beat drops back in the end
Do you feel like you're a self-conscious dancer
Maybe God is a self-conscious dancer too
So why not not give a shit, and shake that ass like it's a decade past
Why not give your ego a a piece of your mind, well alright
You hold on to what was, don't want what is
You keep wondering what if, but if doesn't exist
You hold on to what was, don't want what is
You keep wondering what if, but if doesn't exist

See You Later
02:52
|

Maybe you can find
A place you can unwind
A bungalow with someone with some soft skin
The night reflected in the ocean
Bottles iced in styrofoam
A home where you can drink in the view
And I thought it was worth it
And no one's life is perfect
But still I wish that we had worked it out
Caught up in what you remember
And I'll be back this next December
Anyhow, goodbye for now
