- A Million Days
It falls out like a thousand ways
Of my mouth and how I behave
You never see the both of us
In the same locations
A stone's throw from a basket case
So how'd you navigate this run around
I'll keep anything from getting out
- Albatross
One last cup of starlight
Before I wake, and start my day
A past so filled with promise
Before I lost,I lost my way
Oh that's okay and I'm alright
I guess I'll be lost again
For one more night
- Between You And I
So now she's on her way
Home from work, alone for dinner
You close the door to the microwave
Underneath that phone that just won't ring
Sittin' on the bus
Stare a hole right through the floor
Listening to the squeaky door
Open and close at a stop that's never mine
- Blown Wide Open
So I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I'd put away
And I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I'd put away
An there s a pile in the closet
That's where I threw some yesterday
Maybe under the rug
That's where I swept some the other day
- Break
If I take your side
The truth will divide
What I can't decide
Is which half is mine
I'll put off this fight
For one more day
It's so hard to keep
Those images at bay
- Broken Hands
When the light that shines turns bloody red
It'll distort halos in my head
I hate my hate Oh
When the ones you love turn leave and go
It'll distort all the things you know
I hate my hate Oh
- By The Way
One two three four
So you would be my one bad thing
Never when you tried
I let the fire burn out again
And then inside
So let my tears be realized
Before my eyes are turned
- Come What May
Break off a little piece of happiness
No body gets hurt more or less
Whatever it takes to get you through
The night is gonna have to do
Under the weight of daily bread
You'd rather wake to cake instead
Would you believe a photograph
- Control
Every now and then
I can feel this feeling
Hooking up to back when
Theres a difference
Can tell the difference
Between history and regret
- Do What You Will
|Let 'em out|Let 'em out of the cage|And ease the pain||So you do what you will|Do what you will|With the blames and my remains|Oh, yeah||This world becomes alive|When all else fails I won't|Even though it isn't right||Have you ever been surprised|Hit the brakes at the speed of light|Now we know just what's unwise||Let 'em out|Let 'em out of the cage|And ease the pain||Mama you do what you will|Do what you will|With the blames and my remains|Oh, yeah||Ooh, I found this mess again|Nearly on my own|Gonna give you one more try||How you ever wonder why|Never speak at all|Cause I only make you cry||Let 'em out|Let 'em out of the cage|And ease the pain||So you do what you will|Do what you will|With the blames and my remains|Oh, yeah||Do whatever you think's right|Outta sight and outta my mind|Open up the floodgates wide|Think it's time we live tonight||The path was there before us alright|Gonna give 'em quite a sight|I'll sing another chorus in rhyme|Gonna fix up all your pitch and time||Let 'em out|Let 'em out of the cage|And ease the pain||So you do what you will|Do what you will|With the blames and my remains||Do what you will...|
- Everything Is Fine
So you hate me if I'm open
But you love me when I'm closed
I used to be outspoken
Only on the phone
Used to keep my letters
Underneath your bed
Underneath you dress was
- Floodgates
IÕm opening the floodgates|IÕm opening a window|IÕm opening a doorway||While youÕre still away||Oh, reach out to those with a shyness|As they refuse to be found|Deep are the stillest of waters|It makes it easy to drown||All in all, nobody knows no one||Only while the world is fast asleep|Can I find a way to let the last guard down||IÕm opening the floodgates|IÕm opening a window|IÕm opening a doorway||IÕm letting all the flies out|IÕve gotta torch my hideout|ThereÕs nothing left to find out now||While youÕre still away||Help out the ones who are falling|When they need no help at all|Always the ones who are calling|Sometimes itÕs nice to be called||By yourself |Way too long|You exhume the fears |And then they hang around||IÕm opening the floodgates|IÕm opening a window|IÕm opening a doorway||IÕm letting all the flies out|IÕve gotta torch my hideout|ThereÕs nothing left to find out now||While youÕre still away||The walls will cave|The floor will sink|As the worldÕs asleep|And IÕm alone||Anxiety|The pictures are springing to life again|All of this while youÕre away|What have you got to say?||IÕm opening the floodgates|IÕm opening a window|IÕm opening a doorway||IÕm letting all the flies out|IÕve gotta torch my hideout|ThereÕs nothing left to find out now||While youÕre still away|
- Friends
In the post storm winds
As the ending now begins
We knew we'd fall apart
With a best friend burned
And diminishing returns
You know you went too far
Well, all I'd needed was
- Glass Room
Alright|Summer swells to a close|Your skin still kinda glows|Even at night||It's just a couple of moments|To get past|And one or two of the moments|That never lasted|That's alright||I said remember how sticky|That you used to get|Rolling, swimming|In each other's sweat|And that was alright||Another glass room|Gets a little dark|And girls will be girls|Yeah they leave a mark|We're holding it up to the light|Because the melody don't|Sit quite right||When you go|I know the reason why|You take those moments|Sing them out like a lullaby|This is gold|I'm alright|Let's kill those wishes|Make it look like suicide||In a sarcastic way|I thought I heard you say|That you were alright||But to have such beautiful faces|And we were in such beautiful places|I wanna stay there all night||And then one more candle|And one last view||It's over, yeah it's over, yeah it's over|Yeah it's all over the place||And then another glass room|Gets a little dark|And girls will be girls|Yeah they leave a mark|We're holding it up to the light|Because the melody don't|Sit quite right||When you go|I know the reason why|You take those moments|Sing them out like a lullaby|This is gold|I'm alright|Let's kill those wishes|Make it look like suicide||One more reason to get a little cold|One more season and you're getting old|Oh just one more headache|That never goes away|The past starts bleeding|You look the other way||Another glass room gets a little dark|And girls will be girls|Yeah they leave a mark|We're holding it up to the light|Because the melody don't|Fit quite right||When you go|I know the reasons why|You take those moments with you|Sing them out like a lullaby|This is gold|I'm high as a pine|I kill those wishes|Dress them up in a suit and tie||When you go|This is gold||When you go|I know the reasons why|You take those moments|Roll them out like a lullaby|This is gold|I'm alright|Let's kill those wishes|Make it look like suicide|
- Ill Advice
Let 'em break your bones
they'll drop the sticks and stones
Sometimes
I'll serve it bloody rare
The animals don't care
Anymore
I'll hang out on descend
If it comes to an end
- Inhale
Cities crumble into forests
The black tops crack and float away
Change your mind and inhale
And every now and then it's broken
We'll fix it all up in the end
Change your mind and inhale
- Knee Deep
Make love by the window
With the toffs
Before you can jump
I'll push you off
And I'm knee deep with no sleep at all
When you're on my shoulder
I'm knee deep and I can't sleep it off
- Ladylike
So when she lays down it'll be
With me
Lord, she'll lay down with me
And when she walks out it'll be
On me
Lord, she'll walk out on me
- Look What I Found
It's solely operational
And we don't even have to sell
I roped it but what the hell
It's someone else's oh oh well
Stolen but it's okay
If integrity says no way
Well now it's here to stay
- Oh My
Say I'm obssessive
I don't wanna hear
Overly possessive
Who, when and where
When your arms go 'round another
I'll turn my back
Why bother
- Overemphasizing
Once was a man
Our age
He's all for himself
On stage
It turns a page
All through this time
He's outgrown
- Prayer
Fairweather friends
A season ends
And your conscience lends
All your lies a hand
Cause you're a star
And you'll go far
You stand in the flame
- Rest Of The World
Well there's this man of the world
Who gets all the girls
And does what he wants to
I was in his employ
Since I was a boy
It was the orders that I outgrew
The only thing I have to figure out
- Still Here
So while they satisfy
Their want to ink a deal
A world of status
Finds a home, oh no
With all the stories
New and old
We're thinking
This is all a dream
- That Song
That Song
So I always get nostalgic with that song
But in my room it's forced
It has to be in some car across the street
And I always catch the back of your head in a crowd
Just don't turn around
- The Oaf
Who'd you drag around my door if I
Keep it cracked they won't be here no more
Who'd you leave along the way
Leave 'em there don't come back today
Now who's the one who treats you right
Yeah leave him there don't come back to fight
Now who's the lad who wants to be
- Undersold
All the lies and all the kisses
And all the naive things he disses
Are gone now watch them fade out
It's not too hard to hang with losers
As opposed to fakers
And used to model debutantes and boozers
- Waste
So I knew you were fakin'
About your dreams
'Cause when you're wakin'
Everything's what it seems
I know you got roses
You wanta throw on my grave
But all the time you
You can't seem [to ?]
- Wolves
Oh mark my words
In between the lines
In every little piece
Of the stories entwined
I always told my side
My own way
