- Any Other Heart
And this is my last remaining filter on my last remaining words
It's leaving the taste of something bitter on my tongue
I'm leaving a letter full of reasons along with a line that starts to blur
Into a page that says you faded way too young
'Cause you're leaving something short of innocent
I'm still thinking of the times we should of spent
It's as if this form of treason crawled up deep inside your head
- Baltimore
Tomorrow I will climb aboard
A northbound train to Baltimore
I'd hoped we'd leave with lips and not a fight
And I'm not sure just where I'll be
But I'll find you when I find sleep
And I'll think of times you spent with me so please
Just keep your head on your shoulders
- Close The Distance
I found hope
In the back of a closet
Written by a child's hand
On pieces of parchment
Yellowed and old
I've never seen
That kind of belief
- Go To Hell
And I heard you noticed every day while I've been here beside myself
How your bedroom smells just like me and how you found somebody else
There's a letter that I wrote you just on the back of your top shelf
In case you think the things I've told you, you will hear from someone else
It talks about the things I feel when it's just us inside the dark
About the things I like to think while you lay so close to my heart
And I can't seem to find the words I mean so I try to hold my tongue
While I lay wide awake and restless you should read it says,
- Goodnight Moon
And Don't go to bed yet, love
I think it's too early
And we just need a little time to ourselves
If my wall clock tells me that it's 4 in the morning, I'll give it hell
Cause I've been trying way too long to try and be the perfect song,
When our hearts are heavy burdens
We shouldn't have to bear alone
- Hear Me Out
Where did you go
How will I know
If you hear me out
I need this now
Watching as the leaves fall down
The colors where we use to run and play
Another year's flown by I fear
- Hold On
Let's get to the point and all take our tongues out
And not show off our scars not leave here with doubts that
Things in life well they could've been easier
And let's make sure we fought for all that we leave with
And lessons we're taught make sure we believe them
And promises kept all turn into secrets we'll keep to our graves
Get down on your knees when
You feel sure the path ahead is about to end
- House Of Hallways
Go Radio - House Of Hallways
And as it gets dark in this house of hallways
And no corridor leads to the stairs
With still wet black paint on all the windows
We got no clocks cause time don't care here
So tell me your name young noble stranger
- I Won't Lie
Four in the morning and I'm sober walking through the rain
It doesn't matter where I'm going everywhere's the same
Cold dark room
I've put myself into
You were a window to a world that I could never know
And asked for every piece of me and so I let you go
Way too soon
- Kill The Beast
And you put yourself onto the cross
And built your wounds to cover spite
So I can't be the man that martyrs you tonight
'Cause we're all paying heavy costs
So leave your speeches with your soapbox
We might be patient but we're still lost
Spitting blood and bleeding all of us
Just look what you've become
- Letters And Love Notes
And I'm tearing down the walls I've made
To try and keep girls like you away
But still you'll find your way right back into my heart
And am I'm the only one like this
- Lucky Street
And I watched the Atlantic Ocean rise to meet New York.
And everyone involved got way too scared that life was way too short.
And we all sang songs about things we'd take back if given the chance again.
And I'd never seen the sky a sadder shade of grey.
And I thought about the words I told you and others I forgot to say.
So just tell me that you'll hold my hand.
We'll stand together here in New York sand.
- Over Me
It's 3 o'clock and I'm still underneath every cloud over me
And every face that I pass on the street says you will be loved without me
And then you say
It's hard to love when I'm the one left standing
Hard to smile without a change of pace
I just lost myself in the days
It's hard to miss what I can't hold on to
And try to keep what I can't embrace
- Redemption In The Verse
Today a daughter will hug her father and ask when's Jesus coming back
He wonders should he even bother with the words
'Cause all he got her in the world was just a box filled with regret
It played a song that sang redemption in the verse
See since the day the sunshine left it left its marks on both his wrists
And pulled the center of his heart out by a noose
See without the sun you just can't grow into the height that you belong
- Singing With The King
Don't take another day away from me
'Cause I don't got many as it stands
Here on the rooftop screaming like the world stopped
Another cigarette for both of us, hold my hand
I'll take us both to the top of the world if I can
Cause mama it's okay, tonight I'm going to sing with Elvis
And we will sing a couple songs just for your ears so sing along and hey
If I go down in the quicksand don't grab my hand
- Strength To Stay
Can you breathe, does it hurt
What's it like when you can see it coming
When it takes all that you got just to speak
Can you hear every word as the morning comes and is all transforming
Would it make the slightest difference if you could see
And you wanna get out of here
'Cause you don't have the strength to stay
- Swear it Like You Mean it
Oooooh...
Hands down I swear that I came so prepared to be here myself
And I'll be just fine, but most of all the time you're with me on my mind.
It's why I stay so cold and asked you "Please don't go"
And you were turning out the lights so he could sing to you because you want him to.
I think he wants you to.
And as for me I spend the night a darker shade of blue
And dance with the thought of you
- Thanks For Nothing
And how does it feel to be the name that's on the page
To know that you've joined the rank of all of the people I hate
And how does it feel to be the one that's center stage
To know that your just a face
That started this horrible game
I hear you saying that it hurts so much
You never really thought it through
I'm tying nooses and you know this ones for you
- The Ending
Do you ever feel
That you can't wake up
That today's a dream
And you've just been stuck
That nothing in this house breathes the same
If everybody in the room maybe stepped out
You'd never have to see the past where you hit the ground
- The Truth Is
Just a list of things I'd do if I could fly
Oh I would fly straight to the moon
To bring the sands back here to you
And we'd make castles where we'd spend our days
And rooms that last eternities
And perfect cracks get fixed with ease
And if it falls apart faster than we had planned
We'll plan for something else
- Things I Don't See
You find the color in things I don't see
And you found a way to make me believe that I
I don't have to walk this road alone
And patience I can lack to live and learn is what I need
A stubborn man is blinded by pride she said to me
I might just be on to something now
And maybe your mind's made up, we'll right the wrongs today
- What If You Don't
I'm building my own cell tonight
And I will never make a key
It's just me and the dark
Alone here with my heart
And won't you come and set me free
And you and I we have a history
And not much here outweighs the pain
