Rare Loyalty
04:00
|
|||
|
I'm always on the dark end of the street
I'm never the girl you wanted to meet
I'm always somehow always getting it wrong
I'm always go on talking for way too long
I'll never be who you want me to be
I'll never ask for your rare loyalty
So take this half way heart of mine
Bring it someplace wild and set it free
cuz I've already let this go on for way too long
I shouldn't have even written this down into a song
but I'll hold myself with both of my arms
until I believe that I am strong
But I can't stop trying
and I can't stop crying
and I can't stop lying
to myself
and I can not deny
that I'm always wonderin why
no one ever picks me up for themselves
I'm just a book on a shelf
a book on a shelf
So I will learn to read myself

Our Shine
02:46
|
|||
|
I met him up on top of the mountain
maybe past quarter of 8
he said how you been doing darling
I said alright, but now I'm great
he pulled out a bottle of liquid fate
and said well then let's celebrate
Because
It's your shine
it's my shine
it's our shine
it's moon shine :ll
We're just having a good time
what's mine is yours when you are mine
and I know that it's alright
when I got you to share my shine
we let the the love pour out like water
we sat there talkin for hours and hours
we didn't know how far to go
but we were doing it on our own
We've been doing it a long time
holding hands as we walk the white line
even when the times are tryin
you'll be there to share
It's your shine
it's my shine
it's our shine
it's moon shine :ll
We're just having a good time
what's mine is yours when you are mine
and I know that it's alright
when I got you to share my shine

I Quit
03:48
|
|||
|
Every day that boss man pushes me around
makes me get back up just so he can kick me down
tell me what to do, tell me what I don't
tell me one more time, I swear he won't, and I said
CHORUS:
You can't fire me, I quit
I've been working way too hard and way too long
to keep putting up with your shit
You can't fire me I quit
I've been working way too hard for way too long
and I'm tired of it
Working for the man every night and day
I swear to God there's gotta be a better way
I spent all my working days dreaming
plotting and scheming and planning on Freedom
couldn't wait to be old and retired
I wished that boss man would tell me I'm fired
cuz then I'd say
{Chorus}
I couldn't keep selling my life minute by minute
Life's not a game, you can't just win it
over worked and underpaid
so when the boss man started yelling
That's when I said
{Chorus}

Steer Me Away
02:28
|
|||
|
I feel your touch, I want your love
but you're so far away
I won't ask you to come
I want more than just some
I wish you'd give it all away to me
I breathe you in, when you breathe out
I want to know what you're without
I want to fill the empty parts
I want you to feel me when we're apart
I know you've only ever learned how to be lonely
but how do you feel when you hold me
There's not a single thing that you could ever owe me
but when you're here I feel like that's when I'm the whole me
You're my wheeler, and my dealer
won't you steer me away
you're my drug and my luck
you're just a feeling today

Man In A Hollow Tree
02:38
|
|||
|
There is a man in a hollow tree
Everything he does he does for free
you've never seen a man who's so happy
as the man in the hollow tree
He sleeps all day and he smiles all night
never once been in a fight
he knows it'll all be alright
he sees his future is oh so bright
all he has is all he needs
never once has he felt greed
every moment he is pleased
as he sows his happy seeds
There is a man in a hollow tree
Everything he does he does for free
you've never seen a man who's so happy
as the man in the hollow tree

Higher Than Heaven
02:07
|
|||
|
Higher than heaven
every single day
I smoke marijuana
because that is how I pray
and if you go and take a look in my bag
I'll tell you exactly what it is I have
fourty ounces of freedom and bottle of Jack
that's what I call fuel for my YOLO swag
cuz I might not see tomorrow
today is all I have
and I'm gonna make the means necassary
to make myself glad
sex drugs and rock n roll
my whole damn life is outta control
but there's one thing I know for sure
that my music has got so much soul
Because I'm in love with melody
and rhythm's my religion
sixteen notes and harmonies
that's what I was born and raised in
and if you wanna fuck with me
you better be on the beat
using this old guitar
to try to get something to eat
butter for my piece of bun
peace for my people
music is the church of God
and singing is the steeple
when I make that beat drop
I'ma make a booty pop
when I hit the microphone
I'm make em, make em stop
picking on a string
picking on a wire
when I start singing
I seek to inspire
but you came to hear me sing
yall didn't come to hear me rap
my music is so dope it's a matter of fact
but before I go
but before I stop
we gotta make some room
to let this beat
Drop

Broken Crutch
01:50
|
|||
|
You should have always know it was never enough
pushin long white lines of the magic dust
pushin long white lines so you could keep it up
running down the road with a broken crutch
dividing everything you had into half
roaming on your own when you had nothing left
all so that you could have the last laugh
silencing the demons was your epitaph
and now you have gone and flown away from me
if you can let go, in time we will see
on the wings you will soar un til you're free
take a good rest baby let it be what it be

Resolution of Love
02:48
|
|||
|
The roses are in bloom
your baby girl is coming soon
give to her a name
as you play the waiting game
all things come to pass
even some love may not last
but as you watch her grow
there is one thing you should know
Momma I love you
yes I do
She looks to you for strength
even when she's so far away
she wonders what you'd say
when she goes so far astray
you showed her what is love
you are an angel sent from above
and for this she prays
that she may be like you someday
Momma I love you
yes I do
As I grow and become
my own version of woman
I hear you in my voice
and witness you in my choice
I am you when I'm my best
as I am yours I am blessed
guide me with your light
love is the sunshine, and you are the twilight
Momma I love you
yes I do

Liquor Owes Me Money
04:24
|
|||
|
[Well the honkey tonk stole my time and liquor owes me money
just about lost my mind when I lost my honey
out of luck and out of line
drank so much they called it a crime]
Well they locked me up and threw away the key
when the booze on my breath proved me guilty
but anybody'd drank that much too
if they'd been through what I been through
I met a man and I fell in love
I thought he was something special sent from up above
I thought that his heart was true
but he left my heart all black and blue
[Chorus]
The police man asked, "Ma'am how much you had tonight?"
I said, "Well, just enough to start a fight,
and I'll prove it to you if you don't treat me right!"
cuz my old man's the one you oughtta be standing down
He built me all the way up just to beat me down
He made my heart break and left me all battered
took our happily ever after and left it shattered
[Chorus]
|

BlueMoon
02:14
|
|||
|
well I'd rather be dead than live like my father
and I'll never grow up better than my mother
but the more I grow the more I see
what they saw in each other
Time might heal old wounds
but sometimes I'm consumed
by shame they painted on my face
and how I'm never quite in place
So I'm runnin, runnin, runnin away from time
So I'm runnin, runnin, runnin away from time
So I'm runnin, runnin, runnin away from time
So I'm runnin, runnin away
Everything the post man brings
says delinquent or declined
I thought I woke up sad today
and I just can't change my mind
Yeah, The dark clouds keep on following me
I can not run and hide
and I wonder if creativity
might be in decline
cuz the older I get
the more scared that I am
that everything
will stay the same
and I wonder how many times I can
runaway and change my name
and I wonder how many more lies I get
before they send me to the flames
So I'm runnin, runnin, runnin away from time
So I'm runnin, runnin, runnin away from time
So I'm runnin, runnin, runnin away from time
So I'm runnin, runnin away

The Fall
03:06
|
|||
|
I don't wanna wait forever
I don't wanna hear you say
When sometime turns into never
as I watch you walk away
[Chorus]
Maybe it's not even worth it in the first place
Maybe it ain't even worth it all
Maybe sometimes the climb ain't
sometimes the climb ain't worth the fall
and I can not tell a lie
I want you by my side
and when I come to you all the time
it's cuz I want to see me in your eyes
[Chorus]
Oh baby could you be my safe place
baby please tell me no lies
somewhere I can go run to
to hide underneath your sighs
and promise to never grow angry
and never to raise your voice
and at least mostly pretend
that I was your first choice
[Chorus]

Thirsty Ground
03:24
|
|||
|
"Thirsty Sound"
All these swarming ants
leave me in a trance
butterfly touches down
without making any sound
memories float away
there is no simple word to say in a
moment so profound
teardrops quenching
a thirsty sound
so much fear and self-doubt
I wish that I could be without
but nothing ever comes
of a bottle left undrunk
I miss you so much
that I'll tear
all the clothes I used to wear and
as I revel to the sun
I will know
no war is won
no song is ever sung
nothing ever ends
everything just begun
|
||||
13. |
The Jury
03:32
|
|||
|
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury
I hope you will not rush to judgment
I hope you will not hurry
cuz there's quite a few things
you ought to have in mind
before you go on condemning
this poor soul of mine
The truth is I've already paid the price
I have already served my time
and there is no amount of money
fine dining, drugs nor wine
That could ever bring back
all the time that you once had
that could ever bring back
the time that you once had
maybe I didn't pay up
maybe I didn't do it right
maybe I stayed up
the whole damn night
maybe I'm not sorry
but then again maybe I am
maybe I just fucked up
as much as anyone can
but I swear to God
it keeps me up at night
but for as much as I've done wrong
so also, I have done right
in sharing my love and service
to those around me
and to humbling myself to the lord
on one bended knee
you can never bring back
the time that you once had
you can never bring back
the time that you once had
I know that's all the time I have to plea
and I pray that on behalf of our maker you will see
that although I am a sinner
I am truly sorry
and I hope that in your deliberations
you will find my salvation
and that I may too join you good people
in all of eternity
|
||||
14. |
Your Thing
02:14
|
|||
|
I hope this evening turns into eternity
I hope this feeling becomes ecstasy
cuz I can't stand it when you stand next to me
yes you really have gotten the best of me
absolute power corrupts absolutely
and baby clearly you've gotten that over me
you've got a one-two punch choke hold on me
I just wanna be your thing
I don't want to have to think
You can wear me like a ring
when I see you I won't even blink
and I will try so hard just to please you
and I will fight myself not to tease you
and I will wait as a book on a shelf
with secret letters unknown to anyone else
I will be the object of your desire
you will come over to rule my empire
and neither of us will ever be lonely again
or at least, at worst we'll pretend
|

Likely Widow
03:16
|
|||
|
You've got my heart sitting in your lap
it's purring just like a kitty cat
I think of you, and I think I'm smitten
this could be the greatest love story ever written
I've got your eyes in my mind
and they're staring straight through
they're beautiful and perfect darlin
just like you
Baby, please don't break my heart
the wanting is a prison cell
fighting this feeling is a rodeo from hell
oh well gee, I just, I think you're swell
yes you really have gotten me under your spell
you're gonna leave me a likely widow
sitting staring forever out my window as you
sail away on a sea of love
as lonliness descends on me like death from above
but it's better to have love and have lost than to have never loved at all
better to have paid the cost than to have never have fallen the fall
Baby please don't break my heart
|

My Night
02:20
|
|||
|
We've traveled for Miles and Miles
still so far to go
We have had all this time
but still we can't let go
I thought you'd be mine
body heart and soul
I had no idea
how it would take it's toll
I had nothing left to say
the price was far to high to pay
the cost of giving myself away
I would never be enough for you
all these lucid dreams
would never, never come true
as I watched you fade away out of my mind
I was so, so afraid of crossing that line
between you and me, the darkness and the light
you used to be my sunshine
now you are my night
|

Sunlake Daydream
03:30
|
|||
|
Sunlake Daydream
is it as glorious as it seems?
Will you runaway
with me on a make believe holiday?
Let's go and fly a kite
at the darkest hour in the middle of the night
we'll let it go until it lands on the moon
and if it takes forever it'll be too soon
I'll be your raft if you'll be my boat
and can help each other to stay afloat
on a raging river just you and me
we'll go all the way out to sea
and then we'll sail a ship on a sea of love
on waves of happiness with kisses and hugs
the stars will smile down on us from up above
and we'll just keep on sailing just because
|

18. |
Welcome Me Whole
01:58
|
|||
|
The loneliness is consuming
the solitude will cut straight through me
My cup is inexhaustible
but only as much as I am unstable
It's like the view from a prison cell
your own predestined, personalized version of hell
the fear is insatiable
this soul is unsaveable
I get on down, just to get back up
It'll never ever ever be enough
what once was has now become
an unrecognizable disappearing landscape
But I believe in the light inside the blackhole
that every light in the galaxy will eventually
be consumed by its pull
and theat when I make it there too
I will see it in full
a consummate, brilliant, shining specter
warmly waiting to welcome me whole

The Damage Done
02:37
|
|||
|
I've been running from everyone else
but I'm not scared of anyone more than myself
But they are the mirror to what I've become
I don't want to know the damage done
Could I ever come back from what I've done?
If I were to change my ways, what would I become?
Could you help me to help myself?
out of this hollow grave I built it myself
I don't want to die anymore
I want to live
I still have so much more left to give
I'm not gonna live forever
It's not up for debate
I just want to live better
before it's too late
|

21. |
Many Happy Returns
02:24
|
|||
|
Many happy returns
on all the bridges that you burned
and as you fade away
all you did will come back to you
hear my clear and loud
you used to stand so proud
but then they cut you down
tell me what to do with you know
you threw it all away
now you have nothing to say
get on your knees and pray
that the good lord will take it away
|
||||
22. |
||||
|
I've been making a lot of changes
taking out my insides just to rearrange them
and I took you out too
cuz I know exactly what bad can do
It wasn't your fault, I made all my own decisions
fucking up so good with immaculate precision
wisdom weighs more than innocence
so I walk around with heavy hands
under a bad influence
I remember waking up in so much pain
couldn't even remember forgetting my own name
sleeping with the devil my only friend
praying to God that it would end
but I learned to live to see a brand new day
I learned to live a brand new way
I had no idea what joy would come
When I was saved, pulled out from
|

Which way is up?

I Disappear
03:08
|
|||
|
Whenever I am with you
My wildest dreams come true
I slowly fade away
with every word that you say
it's in the way that you care
makes me feel like I'm not there
I dissipate into air
a gossamer until I disappear
I disappear
I wish you could take everywhere
I'll get real small and hide in your hair
you can skin me and wear me like a fur coat
as you recite all the words that no one knows I wrote
let me be your shadow
hide behind follow below
you be the clouds, I'll be the rainbow
how quickly I fade, how quickly I go
I disappear

Trailer Park In Heaven
02:34
|
|||
|
I've got fancy french doors on my pink double wide
and inside we're always listening to John Prine
the couch has got some tears and it's covered in dog hairs
and if you're looking for a flat screen it's not there
There's a trailer park in heaven when you die
you can't fit a camel through a needle's eye
you can't take it with you and neither can I
So there's a trailer park in heaven when you die
The neighbors are always are always awfully kind
you can always count on them if you need a ride
there's never any judgement in their eyes
cuz you can't look down on someone who is in the sky
There's a trailer park in heaven when you die
you can't fit a camel through a needle's eye
you can't take it with you and neither can I
So there's a trailer park in heaven when you die
Bet you didn't know that Jesus Christ was white trash
he gets his kicks on an old John Deer just mowing the grass
he likes to take it easy, watching the time pass
but if you call him ignorant well he'd probably kick your ass
There's a trailer park in heaven when you die
you can't fit a camel through a needle's eye
you can't take it with you and neither can I
So there's a trailer park in heaven when you die

Violation
04:00
|
|||
|
all the truth is just a dirty pair of glasses
all your words are just death and taxes
I tighten up while you relax and
my hands are loose and small in your hand
I guess I'm letting go
but I haven't let you know
I need you like I need a bottle of pills
and a pen filled with blood with which to write my will
You know I'm always scared to be alone
you are always happy to help me postpone
looking at the monsters under my bed
and exercising demons that live in my head
I guess it's cause you're inside me like them
more of a cancer than you are a friend
kill me with kindness pull wool over my eyes
a parasitic venomous trusted alibi
I loved you then and I love you now
this you know
you wouldn't pay the violation
so I let you go

"On Letting Go"
We're all just great pretenders
we just let it slip away
in the end what we don't surrender
well the world will just steal away
Gotta leave it behind
If we go out west
we won't ever come back
but admit it babe
you love a heart attack
Gotta leave it behind
Everything diesbaby that's a fact
but maybe everything that dies someday comes back
put your make up on and fix your hair real pretty
we're leaving tonight we're gonna burn this city
Gotta leave it behind
Everyone you've ever loved
anything you've ever known
everything you've ever touched
anything you've ever owned

Lost Is Still A Place
05:10
|

|
"Lost is Still A Place"
I've been doing a lot of wandering, but I haven't left my mind
curiosity is drowning every line
and if you're wondering who I am
I'm a castle made of sand
Everyone has somewhere to go, so much work to do
everyone has something to discover that they know as true
I see them as they go by so fast, but they don't see me as they pass,
but I'm there
You can't see it; you can only feel it
Lost is still a place
We're all doing just the best we can,
but you can fail with or without a plan
there's no victory in a helping hand
faith ain't something that you understand
You can't see it; you can only feel it
Lost is still a place
when you're there, just barely hanging on
try to reach out, but it's gone
you only get it when you let it go
when you can't speak it that's how you know
you can't see it;
you can only feel it
Lost is still a place
It's been so long since I fell into your eyes
they rock and craddle me as my mother's sighs
you always did me that way
push me over with a single sway
I can see it; I can feel it
Love is still a place

you can't win when the battlefield is from within
you can't hide from what's behind your eyes
You know
it takes pain to grow, grow
and you can't stop the change
you can't stay the same
you can't move the blame
You Run
Anywhere you run to, anywhere you run that's where you are
You just keep running from yourself

"We All Fall Down"
I wish that I was of a higher caliber
I wish that I had all the answers
I wish I was pure as the driven snow
and I wish I knew all that there is to know
We All Fall Down
I don't know what it is that makes me feel this way
I don't know what it is that makes me say the things I say
I don't know what it is that makes me go astray
I don't know what weighs more, my blessings or my mistakes
We All Fall Down
with the good lord's mercy it's all gonna be OK
It's alright if I do everything exactly the wrong way
we're all star children dancing in a cosmic ray
born again and again in the dawning of each new day

"It All Comes Out In The Wash"
{Chorus}
It all comes out in the wash
No matter the price you pay
don't matter how high the cost
Doesn't matter what you make
in the end it's a loss
It all comes out in the wash
You can stack your money so high it'll blind you in both your eyes
or you can live a life in poverty turning nickels into dimes
you can save the whole world or you can just watch it pass by
you can spend your whole life screaming but we all end with a sigh
{Chorus}
you can get everything you want, and still want a whole lot more
remember every broken heart, is just another open door
you can fight a million battles and win a million wars
but in the end you must answer what the hell were you fighting for?
[Chorus]
you can spend your whole life searching for freedom from anything
or you can work to make a difference and end some suffering
but in the end you must realize there's only one place to begin
so take a look way deep inside cuz it's gotta come from within
It all comes out in the wash
No matter the price you pay, no matter how the cost
doesn't matter what you find, cuz in the end it's lost
It all comes out in the wash
WoowhOoo

Your gentle touches got a hold on me
I wish you would just let me be
I don't know why, I don't know
I wish you would just let me go
I think it's time to let it go
I close my eyes and your eyes are all that I see
It's stirring feelings fire burning up inside of me
I don't know why I can't just let it go
I don't know why, no I don't know
Let me go
If you won't let me go at least please come close
I can't take it anymore making love to a ghost
you haunt me in the hallways of my mind
I think about you all the time
Come here

"Walk The Tracks"
You know I was never looking for something like that
when I first saw you it was a heart attack
and I've been recovering ever since
you stole my heart my will my innocence
but you know I wouldn't trade it for anything
and worrying and regret are just two heavy sins
the pearl of wisdom comes at a great price
so come on now and here my advice
you only get out what you put into life
and what comes back to you is twice as nice
if you wanna walk the tracks ou gotta look out for trains
if you wanna fall in love you gotta feel some pain
and I know that I stole from you too
what'd you expect a selfish, greedy girl like me to do?
and what I took I can never give back to you
and there is one more thing I must ask of you
Please forgive me.

Good For Your Heart
06:56
|

|
Go for a real long walk
have a good long talk
let yourself be in shock
when your world is rocked
by the beauty of it all
pick up the phone, make that call
to the one you haven't talked to in way too long
pick up the pen and write that song
because it's good for your heart
be grateful for your mother
don't be hateful toward your father
no matter what they done
you're still their daughter, you're still their son
and it's good for your heart
take the time to make the time
ain't gotta have a reason, ain't gotta rhyme
if it takes all night
gotta make it right
it's good for your heart

Things You Gave To Me
04:06
|
|||
|
An open heart and an open mind
open eyes and arms open wide
a hard, hard head and a strong strong back
standing up straight, never looking back
These are the things you gave to me
and you gave them all away so willingly
these are the things you gave to me
and you gave them all away
so freely
everything you had and a little more
a key of love to unlock every door
a roof over our heads to cover the holes in the floor
we didn't have much, but we had enough
we had all we needed because
all you need is love
these are the things you gave to me
and you gave them all away so willingly
these are the things you gave to me
and you gave them all away
so lovingly
an endless spring of generosity
kindness patience and humility
a kind of peace that does transcend
a kind of love that never ends
these are the things you gave to me
and you gave them all away so willingly
these are the things you gave to me
and you gave them all away so willingly
I hope someday to pass it on
someday my children may sing this song
and your love light will shine on
out of the darkness and into the great beyond

the secrets that we keep and the lies that we tell
well at the very least at least we meant well
the rivers will flood and the levees will break
lies will be told and hearts will break
It all works out
babies gonna cry and everyone dies
and that means everyone including you and I
horrible things happen every single day
but there are miracles and blessings every step along the way
it all works out
I've been wondering how much can I really ask for
I've been wondering what's on the other side of that door
I've been wondering could there really be more
I've been wondering what it is I'm here for?
I've been crossing my fingers
that my heart only gets bigger
so there will be more to devastate
when me and this world sadly must separate
|
||||
45. |
||||
|
It'll take a whole delivery crew
to box me up and bring me back to you
and I don't know what you're gonna do
when you find out what I've been through
[chorus]
I don't want to fall in love again
I don't even have the strength to pretend
I could ever fall in love again
I don't want to fall in love again
take my heart and break it in two
sew it back together with pieces of you
tell me something and tell me it's true
watch my heart turn from black to blue
[chorus]
walked so far into the dark, dark night
thought I'd never find the light
what doesn't kill you makes you stronger
maybe I could last a little bit longer
Maybe I could fall in love again
maybe I wouldn't have to pretend
maybe I could fall in love again
maybe I could fall in love again
it's just a feeling

Clean
04:52
|

I ain't nobody's princess,
nor have I ever been
the only kingdoms that I have ever known
have been heartbreak and sin
if it seems like I'm on high alert
it's cuz I only ever learned how to hurt
all the king's horses and all the king's men
couldn't put my heart back together again
If' you're looking for somebody clean
someone who's perfect and pure and pristine
someone who doesn't know, hasn't seen
all of the danger that love can bring
It ain't me babe
I ain't nobody's angel
but I used to fly high
before they clipped my wings
I used to kiss the sky
they stole my halo and stripped my robes
left me to walk in this world all alone
earned every scar but borrowed every bruise
now I'm laying here bleeding and begging for you
if you're looking for somebody clean
someone innocent pure and pristine
someone who doesn't know, hasn't seen
all of the wreckage that life can bring
It ain't me babe
out of the darkness and into the light
I grow stronger with every fight
Watch as my weakness turns into strength
watch me as I go to any length
I will fight for my faith and defend your heart
nothing could ever tear my trust apart
until I'm dead I ain't down for the count
I hope you hear me as I clear your doubt
It ain't me babe
If you're looking for somebody clean
someone perfect and pure and pristine
someone who doesn't know hasn't seen
all of the beauty that Love can bring
It ain't me babe

"Watch Dog's Dream"
I've never been an early riser, but I've seen a few sunrises
I know the mystery of love comes in many dark disguises
I always find it hiding behind an almost stranger's enlightened eyes
It never ceases to amaze me, the many ways that God does grace me
and no matter how far I roam I am always walking home
In the night sky/In the dark scar
wherever I am/that's where you are
In the night bird's watching/in the dawn's decay
in the drowning river/in the dead tree's sway
in the shooting stars/that rumble down the boulevard
in the broken mirror/reflected in every shard
in the siren's mourning/in the watch dog's dream
in the wind's betrayal/in the screaming sea
you always find me/right where I am
you have brought me/right to where I stand
I am lightened and humbled in your eyes
and so I praise you by reaching for the skies

Paying Rent
03:22
|
|||
|
Every stranger is a saint, and the sky is usually blue
no one has any complaints; every word they say is true
they are always glad to see you; you are always glad to be seen
you thought you heard someone say it, and now you know what they mean
you can't buy a house in heaven, your money has already been spent
you're living on a lease that's day to day, and right now you're paying rent
there are no laws in this land; power is held hand in hand
all the alarm codes are 70x7; every clock reads 11:11
grace ain't something you earn; it isn't getting what you deserve
love ain't something you earn; it's a flame that doesn't burn
you can't buy a house in heaven, your money has already been spent
you're living on a lease that's day to day, and right now you're paying rent

Still Born
03:16
|
|||
|
I just can't let you go from my heart and my soul
my body is aching from a love still born
from my wound your heart was torn
and I hear it beating, beating, beating
I'm biting my teeth, ripping my hair
tearing my clothes because you aren't there
my arms are empty, my veins are dry
I still taste you with every sigh
and I hear you breathing, breathing, breathing
would you ever let me be
would your spectre ever set me free
I just can't let you go from my heart and my soul
my body is aching from a love still born
from my wound your heart was torn
and I hear it beating, beating, beating
|

Falling Into
04:10
|
|||
|
I don't want to hear your voice I don't see your face
but you've given me no choice with the strength of your embrace
it's such a cruel disguise the haunting of your eyes
the staying of all your ties
falling into, and out with you
your eyes paralyze me
your sighs bring me to my knees
and if you ever reached out
I would fall into the deepest darkest doubt
falling into, and out with you
please don't lay your hands on
I'm just barely hanging on
all of my missed calls are walking through empty halls
and haunted stair cases of my mind
falling into, and out with you
you're gonna leave me behind
it's just a matter of time
how, where, and when
until then we'll just pretend
falling into, and out with you

Tired of Being Lonely

"Tired Of Being Lonely"
I hate the way you look at me
I hate the way that you don't see me
I hate the way that you just stare right through
I hate the way I want you
I hate the fact that I do
I hate that fact that I can't have you
I'm so tired of being lonely
I'm so tired of being cold
why don't you come here and hold me
why are you leaving me alone
don't you know that I could make you feel right
don't you know I could keep you warm at night
don't you know it's satisfaction guarenteed
don't you know that I am loyal
don't you know I could be your queen, I'm royal
don't you know that I could set you free
aren't you tired of being lonely
aren't you tired of being cold
why don't you come here and hold me
why must we be alone
I don't want to hold on
I don't want to take too long
I don't need that much of your time
I don't need to know what's on your mind
but aren't you tired of being lonely
don't you want to come over and hold me
aren't tired of being so cold
why must you be alone
|
||||
53. |
||||
|
I've got nothing to hide, I haven't got any lies
there is nothing hiding behind these empty eyes
I don't have any ties, I don't have any lines
there is nothing between you and I
if you could would you come a little bit closer
if I was someone else would you approach her
she'd burn you up like a flame to her you'd do the same
Romance is destruction by another name
drink each others blood like it was red wine
stare so deep into her eyes that you read mind
making love like you're running out of time
fuck each other like it's a crime
you started the fire now fan the flame
both your hearts desire the same
not every door is locked and chained
so step right in and let her show you the way

"Letting Her Go"
I once knew a girl who was angry and mad
she felt like life had treated her bad
she had a hand full of habits that made her sad
reaching for whatever she could grab
but I let her go
yeah I let her go x2
she grabbed onto a man
who said he'd care and understand
but he took a fall and she fell too
into a scary world that was dark and blue
and I let her go
yeah I let her go x2
it took some time to realize
and then to get to the other side
sometimes life cuts like a knife
she's lucky she made it out alive
I'm letting her go x4
It took a lot of hands to help her up
and get her unstuck from in that mud
but she stood up tall and she cleans up well
and now she's got a story to tell

My Waterloo
06:12
|

|
I want you to be my waterloo
beat me up and break me down and tear me into
I want you to ruin me so that I can be something brand new
I want you to take the selfish singular part of me and beat it til it's black and blue
I want you to make me bleed until I need a complete transfusion of you
I want you to tell me all the terrible and terrific things about myself that I never knew
I want you to make me question every single thing that I do
I want you, I want you
I want to let me break so that I can tesselate with you, with you
You be the dirt and I'll be the flower
you be the light and I'll be the power
you be the night and I'll be the sky
you are a question and I'm wondering why
I'm not with you, with you
Is it too good to be true?
true

I don't care about the results and proceeds
I just care about feeling you close to me
I don't care how long it's been
I don't care about where and when
I don't care about who you've hurt or about her
I don't care about how many times you have lied
I don't care about how you scream and how you shout
I don't care about how quiet or how loud
I don't care about how many times you can hurt me
I don't care about how many times you can leave
I don't care about how many times you can leave scars
I don't care about how many times you have had to use your arms
I just care if you are here and
I just care if you will draw near

Earthquake Glow
02:32
|

|
You've got hurricane eyes and a tornado smile
you've got an earthquake glow like you're about to blow
I want this love to last, but if it's just a blast
let the time go fast, let the time go fast
you know it's hard to hear and
it's hard to hear
when this explosion's near
you're right in front of me
and it's hard to act, and it's hard to think
when it doesn't last longer than a blink
or maybe your lightening could set my forest on fire
brand new beginning, forced to inspire
start over with nothing but the roots
and now my ground is fertile and it's waiting on you
You've got hurricane eyes and a tornado smile
you've got an earthquake glow like you're about to blow
I want this love to last, but if it's just a blast
let the time go fast, let the time go fast

Winning For Losing
03:50

I'm winning for losing and it's all out of my hands
I'm winning for losing and it's something I don't understand
I'm winning for losing and I'm all the way out of my mind
I'm winning for losing and I'm running out of time
I never give up on the small things
I never give up on doing the wrong right thing
I never give up on beginning
giving up and starting all over again
I'm winning for losing and it's out of my hands
I'm winning for losing and it's something I can't understand
I'm winning for losing and I'm running out of time
I'm winning for losing and I'm all the way out of my mind
There's something about smelling the rain
There's something special about being present for the pain
even when the sun is burning
that's when you can see that leaf turning
I'm winning for losing and I'm all the way out of my mind
I'm winning for losing and I'm running out time
I'm winning for losing and it's out of my hands
I'm winning for losing and it's something I can't understand
I can't understand
I'm winning for losing and it's all out of my hands
I'm winning for losing and it's something I can't understand
I'm winning for losing and I'm all the way out of my mind
I'm winning for losing and I'm running out of time
out of time

a no motor demon dead-set on succeeding, a rocket destined for the ground
a fallen angel, a prodigal lepper, a stretched ghost screaming without sound
carried on the easy wind of never having one a thing
it's an iron-horse butterfly that sings in the night to let me know when to begin
I think I Just Might Win!
radiated willows dance as the wind blllows and I can see God's green in their veins
the uneven earth violently gives birth to a winner without a name
in a soap box derby gravity's got me pulled down by the weight of the world
and now it's just a question if it's hungry reputation can stand getting beat by a girl
combustion peels back our lips-cheek shows our skeleton smile to stay
nursing your nostalgia with destroyed reality will certainly lead the way
to a future full of failure that dissolves into a determination which flirting with revolution
of dead end transmission locked against a phase-shit to our ecstatic evolution

"I'll Leave My Socks On"
I'll leave my socks on
so my feet won't get cold while you're gone
I'll put a sweater on
so my heart won't grow cold while you're gone
I'll keep my lips shut tight
so I won't tell what's wrong from right
I'll tie my hair in a knot upon my head
and wrap up in it all the silent words you never said
I'll tie myself into a second hand helpmate
and tie up all my truths into delicate knots and beautiful braids
I'll only see you in mirrors
as the image becomes so much clearer
the lighting was always so much better
in the driving rain in the violent weather
I'll keep fighting til the end
I'm not afraid to fail, just afraid to pretend
I'm not afraid at all to fall
only afraid of giving in to nothing at all

"Be About It"
Religion is in your daily habits
as your vices multiply like rabbits
all is forgotten
I already forgot that you are rotten
I do not recall
ever knowing you at all
you shake your head like you are sorry
but I don't remember you ever getting to know me
and all of your mistakes are like garbage
given away freely to the public
I don't charge for the things that I give away
I don't listen to anything you say
you call me almost every day
you tell me that I need to change my ways
but still again I can't hear the words you say
all that talking ever did was get in the way
baby, you can't just believe
this is the way you gotta be
I love you no matter what and there's nothing you can do about it
every time you walk you're always trying to get around
baby some things you just gotta get through
before they get to you
there's nothing you can do about it
you ain't gotta believe
you just gotta be about it
