Nothing More

Do you recall, the night we looked
We built it up, we built a room, do you recall?
We built a room, for all our friends
You climbed too high, and down I fell, do you recall?
Now I want nothing more, then you to be the one, that I’ll be holding on
Cause I want you more, then every single doubt , you got me figured out
Do you recall, when the sun set, the flames were dying
Across the water and I shivered neath my breath
You didn’t know, my broken plans,
But when my demons came running out
You shook their hands
Now I want nothing more, then you to be the one, that I’ll be holding on
Cause I want you more, then every single doubt , you got me figured out
I’d lose every ounce of sleep
Just to lay next to you
I’d see the moon rise and run
If you came along
I’d climb up your walls so high
Even though I hate the height
Just to be near to you
If you asked me to
Cause I want nothing more, then you to be the one, that I’ll be holding on
And I want you more, then every single doubt, you got me figured out

Belshazzar
03:54
|

Running too fast I fall, sinking too deep to crawl
I know the way this goes
I’m trying so hard too see past what my eyes want to believe
Is it the writing on the wall?
I know I did you wrong
I know my heart is set in stone
And I don’t belong in your presence
If I could take it back, I would give everything I have
Just to be blameless in your eyes
Silver and Gold wont do, I don’t want it all I just want you
Am I running out of chances?
I know I did you wrong
I know my heart is set in stone
And I don’t belong in your presence
I know that I’ve done wrong
I claimed it all for my own
But I never thought that I’d run out of chances

Strange
03:32
|

Look my way, you better hide your eyes
Words to say beneath the silence
If I had my way, you would be mine tonight
Sleeping on the front porch swing, it’s only midnight
Five cups of coffee, I must be out of my mind
Might be another closed caption night
And I wonder how we will make it out of this
Such a strange strange moment in time
And I wonder when I will see the sun again
You come and go just breaking me down, testing my patience
Holding onto every word, I cant remember
Were there warning signs, I should have known better
But nothing’s really changed at all
And I wonder how we will make it out of this
Such a strange strange moment in time
And I wonder when I will see the sun again
You come and go just breaking me down, testing my patience
And I wonder why, all the time
Can we get off this ride?
I wonder how we will make it out of this
Such a strange strange moment in time

Mind Games

I guess I understand you more now
But I feel much further away
I found out we don't like the same music
And you still love your ex-girlfriend
Guess I'm missing a page out my rule book
I'm alone not stuck in the past
I don't wanna keep looking forward
If you just keep looking back
I've tried for so long just to believe the words that you've been saying
Do all my friends seem strange or am I the one who keeps on changing?
Looks like Natalie's home for the weekend
We'll drink coffee and sit on the roof
All the birds they went home for the summer
How I miss that Ravynn's tune
What makes sense anyhow
And who even knows right from wrong
Is it the moon that tells us where we should go?
I've got all my fears sitting here
Watching like dolls on corner shelves
God help me see clear
Passed all the darkness I let wander in my mind
Looks like Natalie's home for the weekend
We'll drink coffee and sit on the roof
All the birds they went home for the summer
How I miss that Ravynn's tune

Witches
05:06

Some might say look out for witches
Some might say they thought I was one
Some might say they thought God was the Devil
By the way we all like to act
And I sew all my memories into a map
And I know I will never be going back
You set fire to anything different
You despise what you don't understand
And your sharp tongue keeps on accusing
With blind eyes rolled back in your skull
And I sew all my memories into a map
And I know I will never be going back
And I cast my spell on you, you asked me to be this
And I cast my spell on you, you made me believe this

Rearview
04:35
|
|||
You’re looking back in the rearview mirror
And I’ve been looking there too
You analyze it from every other angle
Except what we go through
I didn’t see it
I can’t believe it
I’m hanging on every word that you never said to me
You’re living back in the rearview mirror
And I’ve been living there too
You analyze me from every other angle
Except what I am to you
I didn’t see it
I can’t believe it
I’m hanging on every word that you never said to me
I’m pushing on
Fighting to let you go
But I can’t move on from you
I can’t move on
I’m getting lost in my own illusion
It’s too much for me to face
You don’t even recognize me
For who I am today
I didn’t see it
I can’t believe it
I’m hanging on every word that you never said to me
I’m pushing on
Fighting to let you go
But I can’t move on from you
I can’t move on
Does it even matter when it comes down to it?
Is there a reason I’m still fighting in the middle of the madness?
Can we even take it when we face the factor?
Are we just here drowning? I just want to feel something

Lawless
04:32
|

Do you miss my hair on your face in the morning?
Do you miss my dancing ways when the day is done?
I hope you your nights are longer now that you can't hear me
I hope you find your solace in whiskey river
Have I left you anything to think about?
Am I just another landmark you pass on your bicycle?
I know people move on and the dust sets in
Am I running parallel, ungrounded
You live in a lawless land
When all the sunlights gone, and the moon hangs comes over
My feet are tired out, and my mind won't quit
Your curiosity, is like hangover
You're just a ticking time bomb hanging over me
You live in a lawless land

Garden
04:45
|

I planted a thorn in my garden
And I wanted it to grow into a beautiful flower
I never knew, oh I never knew you reap what you sow
I’ve been going backwards all along
Oh my oh my, Oh why oh why
I’m looking for magic in the rubble
to conjure up a home, a place to call my own
I never knew, no I never knew a sinking ship won't float
I’ve been going backwards all along
Oh my oh my, Oh why oh why
Running again, oh I’m running again
Playing hide and seek with the devil and his friends
Can't break it, I can't shake it, this self-sabotage I’m dancing with
Oh my oh my, oh why oh why
I’m walking the same miles all over
And I’m circling them back, a ring around the same old map
I never knew, I never knew to look at what I had
I wish that I could take it back
Oh my oh my, Oh why oh why

Cowboy Song
05:01

Roughin' up the tough ones
Shakin' down the weaker
Straighten up your holster
Eye on the prize
Watch out ladies, didn't papa warn ya?
Better look out for those winds
Into the bar, everyone's sanctuary
When the dust circle spins
We're all just cowboys trying to shake some dust
We're all just cowboys, trying to jump the gun
It's the saint's call, quick draw
Shakin' up the dust
Sun-torn skin, brown and red
Got the stain of death in your lips
Blue chaps, boot straps
Go ahead and add another bullet to your sin
We're all just cowboys trying to shake some dust
We're all just cowboys, trying to jump the gun
It's the saint's call, quick draw
Shakin' up the dust
Tell yourself it means something
Tell yourself it's working
Tell em' it's your purpose
Tell em' that it's worth it
Blind, cowboys run
Blind, shooting' out your gun
Blind, paving out the way
Blind, holding Satan's hand to pray

Dog Days
04:33
|

Time keeps getting thicker with the mean Virginia heat
I used to think it’d get me, but I think I got it beat
I guess I’ll stay here after all and stop running from my fears
Cause God knows every time I try they always reappear
I think I’ve found some funny friends who just might stick around
I think I found a funny boy who loves this crazy town
I want so bad for all of this to last a little more
I’m finally feeling well enough to get up off the floor
I know I shouldn’t say it when I feel it
Cause I know that you don’t feel the way I feel
It gets a little harder every time you close my door
Cause I want you to come and stay a little bit more
I know that you’ve been wrestling in your mind
And I see the daily struggle you hide behind your eyes
You’re trying just to do your best to keep me out the woods
But I’m worried bout you baby, I’m worried bout you
Telephones don’t tell you you’re important
And the faces that you’re looking at can lie
So pick me up and put me where you oughta
And I’ll try to rest my eyes

It'll Be Fine
03:42
|
|||
When my eyes are finally empty
My heart will learn to fill again
When my voice is finished breaking
I can learn to be myself again
It’ll be fine someday
It’ll be fine, it’ll be fine again
You were not mine for winning
But I’ll be just fine again
you’ve been coming round for far too long
To believe I’d ever do you wrong
So I’ll ask just once to take it slow
Even though one day I’ll learn to know
It’ll be fine someday
It’ll be fine, it’ll be fine again
You were not mine for winning
But I’ll be just fine again
Looks like you’ve been sitting pretty
On the bed that I made up for you
And I’ve finally stopped pretending
That you ever meant a word you said
It’ll be fine someday
It’ll be fine, it’ll be fine again
You were not mine for winning
But I’ll be just fine again
