There's a bird on a wire
Singin' songs about you
When I look away
And I can't say
I don't think about it
When I see your face in a puddle
On a street in the city
It's makin' me insane
Going back to my old ways of
Forgetting everything and
I'm sorry to say that I miss you
Don't ever think that
I'm much more than what I've become
And I don't think that you ever
Expected me to be
There are some things
We might never understand
Leaving myself, leaving my head
Lonely and free
Breaking down every piece
Of what I've done
Makes no sense at all
I like it anyways
Getting swept under the rug
When you last looked
Maybe I'm just crying wolf
But I took every hand I shook
As a blessing or a curse
Never trust anyone
Is what you learn
As far as we're concerned
Better off a vision than a blur
Breaking down every piece
Of what You've done
Makes no sense at all
I like it anyways
And I'm just hoping next time you'll stay
There's a dog on the corner
Barking songs about you
When I cross the street
And I can't admit that I'm lonely
Traded my only hope for a dollar
And a place to sleep
It's a privilege to be hopelessly hopeful
At the end of the day
When I know you're okay
Breaking down every piece
Of what we know
Makes no sense at all
I like it anyways
And I'm just hoping next time you'll stay

Toy Car

These memories are getting weaker
Like the lungs in my chest
And I cannot help
But feel like I'm writing
The same song though years have now past
And maybe I'll never get sober
And maybe my weakness is my only strength
So I'll sit by this fire
Until the embers burn away
Maybe I died
In that summer heat
New Mexico desert it buried me
In that flipped car
Head buried in my knees
Can I hear you oh whisper another lullaby
To soothe these demons
Rattling deep inside
The child I once was
Tangled in who I've become
This life we lead
Is such and strange and fleeting thing
But I'm not ready to give up
I'm gonna put up a fight
I'm chasing the sun west
Til I hit the sky of a sunrise
Breaking the night
And I'm tossing and turning
I can hear the road it's calling
To reclaim yesterday
My heart is spread across
The vast lines of these highways
Cause we were born to wonder
Stitched in the hands of time
(repeat)

Built A Fire
02:55
|

If I wake up
I'll still be drunk
Finding my way on back home to you
My heart built a fire
I swear it embers for you
I'm sorry if it doesn't show
With anything I do
And I know
I did it to myself this time
Scrambling for things
I didn't never wanted to find
But I've done it once
And I'm bound to do it again
I'm tired of being a stranger
To your bed
If I wake up
I'll still be drunk
Finding my way on back home to you
My heart built a fire
I swear it embers for you
I'm sorry if it doesn't show
With anything I do
Our words
They're traveling like bullets
Aimed at the back of our heads
When we least deserved it
And I know it's true
Cause I'm always thinking
About the last thing you said
I love and I miss you
And I wish that you were still
My best friend
But I've done it once
And I'm bound to do it again
I'm sorry for being a stranger
To your bed
And if I wake up
I'll still be drunk
Finding my way on back home to you

The Folly

Down by the water
I will weep
Down in the cabin
I will weep
For the rest of my life
I will weep
Trouble for breakfast
Oh lord there's trouble
When I sleep
Trouble in the morning
Oh lord there's trouble in my dreams
For the rest of my life
I will weep
Well tomorrow
Is a new day
So they say
And I can't wait (So they say)
I wake up early
I got the whole day
Just to weep
For the rest of my life
I will weep
For the rest of my life
I will weep
Down by the water
I will weep

Rewind

Am I insane
Well I really must be
Over analyze till it all fades away
Am I insane
I keep clawing at my body
Cause my insides are boiling
It burns
It hurts
To be alive
Today means nothing
Tomorrow can wait
And yesterdays
A story to tell
Just not for today
Where did you go
You're not how I remembered
Childish games
To a life drown in addiction
Where did you go
When the sunlight brought a smile
Now clouds overhang the remnants of
Dreams we used to chase
Words we used to undying say
What a stumbling stuttering mess
To ruin such a thing
Tell me why should I rest
Holding my last breath
If all of this
Crumbles in the end
Maybe what you see
Is all you'll ever get from me
And sometimes you gotta find
A little rewind rewind in your mind
Even if it's a life
Today meant something
Tomorrow still can wait
Yesterdays a story to tell
Just not for today

Oh darlin' on those sunny days
You can hear me laugh, sing and dance
Against the grain of a war torn train
So do excuse me sir and miss/
If I show no signs of fucks to give
This rundown town's got nothing left
Just a heart broke in this ladies chest
Oh darlin' on those rainy nights
You can see me dreaming of a time
When your hand fit so close to mine
I know one day
You'll be coming around
Without a whiskey rage and a shotgun smile
Crazy lady can't contain
But you can have my heart 'till my dying day
When those rainy nights have gone and past
And those sunny days are here to last
My darlin' I'll be true to you
Like the clouds in a sky of blue
Oh darlin' on those sunny days
You can hear me laugh, sing and dance
Against the grain of a war torn train
So do excuse me sir and miss/
If I show no signs of fucks to give
This rundown town's got nothing left
Just a heart broke in this ladies chest

Splits

Trying hard to forget
The things I've done in the past
Was the illusion of forgiveness
Really meant to last
But we're not afraid of ghosts anymore
Or the tales that come with them
You can stay at my house
Anytime that you like
If you need a place to hide
You know I won't let them find you
If my roommate kicks you out
We never cared much anyhow
The way she feels about you
I guess I outta be leaving too
As the population grows
Our friendships starts to dwindle
And the lies we have told
Have split us down the middle
In the morning I found out
You're not one for goodbyes
Well that's okay, neither am I
I'll try and cover up our lies
In the morning I found out
You packed up and headed South
Still confused, not blaming you
I guess I outta be leaving too
As the population grows
Our friendships starts to dwindle
And the lies we have told
Have split us down the middle
In the middle of the night
I packed up and I took flight
Wasn't sure what happened next
But I just knew I'd be alright
In the early morning light
Apologizes come right on time
Split you up, cut you in two
There's nothing they can say or do
Skip the farewells
Save your time
I don't want to hear your lies
They say they'll miss me
But I'm not sure I'm gonna miss them too
Don't get me wrong; I will be sad
Miss the good times that we had
But in the moment my life ends
I sure won't be thinking of you
As the population grows
Our friendships starts to dwindle
And the lies we have told
Have split us down the middle
Well it happened again just the other night
You and I got into a fight
So I lied to you and I split you down the middle
You passed out about an hour ago
So I left you out, bleeding in the ice and snow
And I lied to you and split you down the middle

Siren
03:02

Well it took me four days to get off
A ship that I'd been on for years
I'm thirsty I'm tired and
The sirens been trying
To lure me into the depths
There's no use in trying kid
Look at your size
They've eaten up men and traumatized pirates
But when she whispers my name you will find
There's no option running away
And I don't get discouraged like I used to
So I'll walk the beaches and I'll build me a raft/ It's a graveyard of others who've tried
If you've got the strength then it'll take the weight
Eat away at your patience and torture your mind
My fingers have worn to the bone
So I'll take this rope and I
I am going home
Gather all your weapons say goodbye and kiss your family
And say you wont be back so they don't think you're coming home
Gray clouds hang above the ocean
Cast like shadows on to sands of time
You wonder how much you have left to come
But I don't get frustrated like i used to.....

Old Glass Table
04:10
|

Feel alone in a crowded room
When your best friend is a tombstone
So what? so is mine
And I'm not gonna hold your hand/
And I'm not gonna tell you I'll be there
'Cause I won't. I'm already dead
And I guess that's feeling sorry
But I guess that I just don't care
I'm not a fool or at least I won't be again
And you're laughing at a broken body
While you're puking in a porcelain sink
And you're falling through an old glass table
While you're falling out of everything
And you never felt more comfortable
Then when you're lying to yourself
And you never felt so restless
When you're sleeping next to noone else
My morbid obsession
That death follows like a shadow
Keeps nipping at my feet
And I would like to fit in
Cause you all look so happy
Weighted bricks caught
At the bottom of the sea
Ten years off the meds
That caged my every feeling
Turned addiction to coddle the fear of breathing
Sobriety to keep the ones I love still close to me
There's no control
No hand to hold
And you're laughing at a broken body
While you're puking in a porcelain sink
And you're falling through an old glass table
While you're falling out of everything
And you never felt more comfortable
Then when you're lying to yourself
And you never felt so restless
When you're sleeping next to noone else
Think your life is like an ashtray
Full of friends that passed away
And noone even cared to say goodbye (goodbye)
I'm a catastrophic mess
My past littered with regrets
Footprints stepped but nowhere lead
So were mine (So were mine)
I'm the last drag of your cigarette
A reminder that we're not all dead
Even when you think all's spent
So have I, So have I
And you're laughing at a broken body
While you're puking in a porcelain sink
And you're falling through an old glass table
While you're falling out of everything
And you never felt more comfortable/
Then when you're lying to yourself
And you never felt so restless
When you're sleeping next to noone else
And you're laughing at a broken body
While you're puking in a porcelain sink
And you're falling through an old glass table
While you're falling out of everything

Recluses
03:02
|

Never had time
To worry about the consequences
Wind to our back; bow to the sunset
We'll tear through the tides
Like a needle through flesh
Thrown from our beds to be showered in decadence
Sick as a dog/ Worn in my shoes
How many battles do we have to lose
We tear down the fences, smash all the windows
Leave me like glass on the floor
Why can't we all pretend
That nothings gonna happen
And why can't I be jaded and happy
It's all excuses
Abuse made recluses of all of us
Why is everyone screaming in my ear
Never had time
To worry about the consequences
Wind to our back; bow to the sunset
We'll tear through the tides
Like a needle through flesh
Thrown from our beds to be showered in decadence

I'll never see you and I'm sorry to say that I miss you
(Time ticks on by..
These days it's hard to move my feet forward
When I'm looking backwards
Maybe I'm just crying wolf
Borders wrapped around my mind
Distractions are the best cure)*
