crying deep within,
he was the voice of a generation
stranded on the coast,
powdering his nose
skin pink like the wine,
he drinks to kill the time
and you know the lightbulb is burning out,
when you’re sleepin' on the pissed stained ground
—
the women only last so long,
now they stick around for the old songs
you were perfect when she'd need,
those emo melodies
and when she'd meet reality,
it was never quite what we dreamed
we never ever laughed so hard,
as when you passed out in the yard
—
and though he may have the arms,
boy you got the heart

quantum leap (for mom)
04:36
|
|||
I’m terrified by the whites of your eyes,
They’re growing darker with each night
And I’m anxious by the way that my heart skips,
I don’t wanna die like this
I’m mesmerized by the lights in the sky,
Getting closer all the time
In past tense I talk about that wish,
Came true but I’m not convinced
Another day another liquid consequence,
It is another victim of a kid’s lost innocence
Another picture from the past to jar my brain,
It is another reminder of the weight
It is another quantum leap,
From my heart down to my knees
Another time another microscopic lie,
That I wear to mask my pride
It is the only peace of mind, of mine
I’m paralyzed by the wrongs and the right,
Get thrown together in a pile
Unconscious in the grass I don’t exist,
Be careful when it hits
Another day another dog behind a fence,
They make a lot of noise when you’re trespassing
Another mention from the past that says your name,
Another winding route for a long parade
It is another quantum leap,
From the grave up to the trees
Another cure another glass of sour wine,
That I drink in record time
It is the only peace of mind, of mine

it was the picture of perfection
on the 4th of july
fireworks and dancing
under a painted sky, painted bright
you walked me to the guest room
where you looked me in the eye
said you weren't ready
I said babe it's fine, another time
how come I feel like I am so alone all the time
I wanna leave this life
I wanna leave it behind
and when my heart splits in two
it's half for me and half for you
so when I leave this life
you'll be my hardest goodbye

fire drill

It’s different when I’m alone
Now I’m always alone
Always alone
Wade into the water
And I can’t just shake it off
Working undercover
And I can’t quite shake it off
I can’t shake it
Go
Where the Kudzu grows
Where the pace is slow
In the summer
And try
Just do it out of spite
Just like a crimson tide
Spilling over
The push and pull
You lost control
Of it
At least they said you did
It’s a fire on a hill
It’s a sound so loud and shrill
Calling me still
Back to the hill
To repeat the fire drill
Step up to the microphone
The contestants microphone
Up to the microphone
Painted in a corner
And I can’t quite spit it out
Searching for the answer
Wish I could just spit it out
I can’t do it
Go
Out to a Grecian coast
Where everything’s too old
To remember
And drive
Like I’m at your side
Keep it between the lines
I know you’ll never
Make a plan
And take it to the end
Still I hope you can

the happiest song
02:17
|
|||
you sang happy birthday
it was the happiest song
all your friends sang along
making wishes for you
another year burned
turned to ash blown in the wind
my heartbeat is growing thin
beating for you
|

I would speak alone
in tongues that I don't even know
I feel so far away
so all alone
in a winter that I call my home
heartache turns to blues
the things I lost and have yet to lose
you lie motionless
in a cold basement
looking perfect as the sun
I can't help to dream
of basic love and of basic things
you were everything and everyone
I could ever hope to be
you were everything
|
||||
16. |
||||
time would toll heavy hearts
I would move to the west coast
to be with, just to be with you
I would change just most anything
to believe in this again,
but by the numbers you won't change
|
||||
17. |
||||
18. |
||||
waste good days
drinking with you
wait every few days
to do it again
time
all of this time
burned it with you
this can't feel the same
because I know who I am
I know what I am

picture of you on a merry-go-round
at the country fair in your nebraska town
I can't speak for you
but good things come to those who wait
and baby I will wait
my heart beats in hues
purple, red, white, and blue
white, and blue

time it fades like light
like a fire in the night
when the days return to night
you will change your mind
because you change it all the time
countless, endless times
change will come in twos
half for me and you
a peace for me and you
|
||||
27. |
||||
hazel eyes and a copper heart
time that's lost is time spent apart
the hidden words that I sing
the pictures in my dreams
the perfect way you breathe
to say I love you
I love you

parked inside a car
singing songs about a broken heart
I would hate for you to see
what I've become
head in other worlds
always singing about a girl
I would believe you if you were me
I'd be the enemy for you to see
but I'd treat you like a friend
like the friend you've always been
but I'd hate for you to see what I've become

threw for miles and miles

beats empty (for cerah)

when this heart
beats empty
without you
how can I stay happy
without you
|

take this moment
I would never
let them have it
I won't let it go

I dream of you on perfect nights
I pretend you are still alive
your memory survives
at night
|

34. |

take the breath out of me
when you cry I can barely breathe
I would move back home
just to be with you alone
