She (he) said it's over and I'm leaving but I wanted to stay
I thought I'd see you in the morning time
But when I tried to call I got the dial at your end of the line
Oh ain't it funny I don't feel a thing?
Maybe it's boredom, the numbness, the cold
Maybe I sort of just fold
It's getting old

Tell Me All About It
03:28
|
|||
Tell me, tell me, tell me all about it
I swear I'd like to know but I don't
"You're such a dick," I'm feeling like Nixon
Sick such as short sold
But I won't show it now, I'm not sure how
Visit in a minute misses
You must have misheard mister mistook me for a hipster
Little does he know, I'm just a felony, end of his rope case
And point, you point the finger
Speak before you know, while you're selling me straight up the road
But one on one's not quite as fun, is it mister cynicism?

Karma
02:36

Let me be the first to admit
On so many nights I've done it
Thought too big, lost my shit over something so small
And I take it back, take it back, but it really don't change
That you really don't want it
And you really don't need it though
I'm starving honest but I really can't feel it so
I think I'll manage take the damage
Chalk it up to karma
So don't you panic, I can stand it
And at worst I'll die young
But I'm dying young baby
Let's see have we completely lost it?
On so many nights you've done it
Thought too small, not at all over something so tall
And you take it back, take it back but it really don't change
That you really don't want it
And you really don't need it though
I'm starving honest but I really can't feel it so
I think I'll manage take the damage
Chalk it up to karma
So don't you panic, I can stand it
And at worst I'll die young
But I'm dying young baby

Don’t move if you wouldn’t mind
I’d like to remember this for a lifetime exactly how it is
Stone proof that we couldn’t hide
Sidelined to leave embers lit
By our night time dreams
Of bridges burning
And I feel it
Is it wrong to say
That i feel something?
I phoned you but you couldn’t find
Find mine on the members list said, “they might mind”
I know exactly what this is
Stone proof that you shouldn’t hide
Sidelined to leave embers lit
By your night time dreams
Of bridges burning

I know time has a funny way as it may
Of sneaking up on you
Don’t you ever sell yourself short
And I know there ain’t no sun today
Yesterday was likewise a grey one
The view from the windowsill is a bore
It's a bore
But then the rain came and rose up a flower
Smiling in the wind as she waved
And with the pace of the clock plays a score
Through the passing of hours
But you’ll never hear it
With your back turned away
I know i’m not the one to say as i lay
And count the cracks in the ceiling
But don’t you ever sell yourself short
I know that the sun we crave day to day
Shines on all that you’d love to hide
By the windowsill on the floor
And you’re torn

It's True, I Do
04:06

I smoke too much i drink too much
I don’t eat enough
At least that’s what they tell me
I talk too much i yell too much
I don’t think enough
At least that’s what i’m telling
Myself i know well and i don’t like me anymore
And its so sad to say that i’m feeling this way
But its true, I do
I want too much i take too much
I don’t give enough
At least that’s what they tell me
I talk too much I yell too much
I don’t think enough
At least that’s what i’m telling
Myself i know well and I don’t like me anymore
And its so sad to say that i’m felling this way
But it’s true, I do
You left me weightless hopeless dead and floating too
You left me scarred and choking hurt and broken too
And I hate to say that its true but I do

Go on, get out, don’t speak
Turn the radio up
Oh don’t mind me finally i see its never enough
And I (you) am (are) a spirit born to be
Born wild and born free maybe (baby)

Waited For You
02:43
|

I’ve waited for you
And i’m so glad to see that you made it
And came through
You don’t know just how much it means to me
‘Cause I don’t wanna burn out like roman candles
And if that’s how it turned out
It’d be too much to handle
You waited for me
And you’re so sad to see that i made it
And brought three
But you’ll never know just how much it means to me
‘Cause I don’t wanna burn out like roman candles
And if that’s how it turned out
It’d be too much to handle

Acetaminophen

My heart is hurting and my thoughts weigh heavy
And there’s no use serving
A prison term that was never yours
My heart beats heavy and my head is hurting
I think i’m ready to go home now
Acetaminophen
My heart beats heavy and my head is hurting
I think i took too much last night
My heart is hurting and my thoughts weigh heavy
And there’s no use serving
A prison term that was never mine
Acetaminophen

Leave A Light On
04:41

When life’s a shattered hourglass
When the time has passed
And when the sand
Is scattered aimlessly about the floor
And you wish you could go back
So bad to get some more
But you can’t and then you say
Leave a light on for me
I don’t know if I will be getting too much sleep
As i lie awake dreaming of future memories
Now that life’s a flowered grass
And the time has passed
Now the sand is a castle
We built and moved to drier shores
And i sit and reminisce
Oh to go back so bad i’d get some more
But i can’t and then I say
Leave a light on for me
‘Cause I don’t know if I will be getting too much sleep
As I lie awake dreaming of future memories
Because we all fall down
