I've been on my own for a month a couple days to a year a big jump in the timeline of you I've forgotten all of the things your hair and your rings and your out there point of view Oh I forgot the way you move, and I'm ok with that Oh I forgot the way you lost me right when you said that I gather the thoughts and the rage living day to day just trying to see us through I gather something I forgot but I'd rather not so I bury it into a bad mood Oh I forgot the way you move, and I'm ok with that Oh I forgot the way you lost me right when you said that

Sacred 02:21
Close your mouth to hear those unspoken This is their biggest fear, when the world stops turning and I'll never know the feeling of my body broken alone But I know they weren't ready to go Close your eyes to see what you've created why won't you look after your own hatred and learn that love is alive and the voice is sacred And you know they weren't ready to go and I know they weren't ready to go

Queen Bed 03:50
So used to not trying I used to sit crying it hurt so much to see the wind blow when it never sent me flying I sit across from you a blanket not made for two but I built you into my life and I wouldn't know what the hell to do without your fussing and fighting without your soft arm when I'm crying the big queen bed that we lie in you're the wind that sends me flying You said when we talked the dark is always glaring at you you told me deep inside you wonder if it will ever let you see this through You said you'd go back to the old days when life wasn't turning you sideways too young to see the problems were at play cut grass and cool sunny spring days I want to be the person who stays I want to be the person who stays I want to be the person who stays I want to be the person who stays

Tonight I'm gonna fly out into the future of my own design nothing else to do but shine a light on all the good and bad inside this heavy life Why do I feel like I'll know what it's like? The one, two, and the three times I've had it on my mind Tonight I'm gonna sigh my breath into this world enough to end the night I'm gonna get a little high Write some pointless shit and then turn out the light Why do I feel like I'll know what it's like? The one, two, and the three times I've had it on my mind Why do I feel like I've put up my fight? Am I playing two sides? Which one's right? Tonight I'm gonna fly out into the future of my own design

Good Cry 02:48
God isn't here tonight he's out on the town dancing round and around not checking his phone for messages he's a bit overwhelmed with all the crazy shit we've dealt with he can't bear to see us move in this direction We all need to find that good cry a space to live where we feel right not much else for a good life not much else for a good life I have a little heart I show to some but not to others I hide myself away protecting all my insides and maybe you've been a part of what I do bring to the table but I don't have much left to give and I need you to be kind We all need to find that good cry a space to live where we feel right not much else for a good life not much else for a good life

The Tower 03:47
Say you won't take me by surprise I'm so innocent why don't you recognize My own shit is always put on the line so you can build a tower over me Well the damage is already done I'm a liar and a liar's never won Take my past and make it go full circle break it so you can somehow prove me wrong I can't take the useless fights and all the violence I can see you grew me just to set me on fire I don't know the words to your song and I don't care to sing it at all Break the pattern, it ends with me You can't change my world and what I truly see You're a victim of your own company I want to find my own way home Home, Home, Home I can't take the useless fights and all the violence I can see you grew me just to set me on fire I don't know the words to your song and I don't care to sing it at all

Hot Street 03:02
Heartbeat - you're gone Hot Street - too long Your ghost in song Your ghost walks on Wake the second day just to see the face of a God, of a God you never thought would come along It's here - they say This year - the change The fierce delay In fear we lay Wake the baby in the cradle, rock em hard and fast Take the child out of them so you can act like that Take the child out of them so you can act like that They kill - we watch They kill - we watch They kill - we watch

Philadelphia 04:17
Philadelphia - mom's hometown also a place where my heart broke down stripped down mattress and a party below you laid me down, we took it slow and I still get shy about that love we had always ready to please you and I still walk by the house I stayed in when I waited for you never really thought I would write a song about one of the big ones, one of the big ones Philadelphia, you let me know what you were thinking when you came to the show empty room, your face red with glow my heart was racing, my eyes hung low and I still get shy about that love we had always ready to please you and I still walk by the house I stayed in when I waited for you never really thought I would write a song about one of the big ones, one of the big ones You say you think of me you say you hear my voice and now you're a part of me wish I had more of a choice and you say you think of me you say you hear my voice and now you're a part of me wish I had more of a choice choice you said you think of me you said you think of me you said you think of me you said you think of me

You said I've been off lately something is simmering and bubbling like crazy You said I should try talk therapy it's the smartest way to clear my anxiety Why do you still love me when I'm in a red zone? I'm stuck in this episode and I can't ever let it go Be honest with me - what do you even see in me? Besides my insecurity and this hurt that just wont let go of me Why do you still love me when I'm in a red zone? I'm stuck in this episode and I can't ever let it go I'm feeling to open now need a tailor to sew me shut if I ever get off the ground will I know which way is up? I'm feeling to open now need a tailor to sew me shut if I ever get off the ground will I know which way is up? will I know which way is up? Why do you still love me when I'm in a red zone? I'm stuck in this episode and I can't ever let it go

Greedy Bay 04:08
I wish the words came as effortlessly as the wind that skims on the bay I would walk out on my front porch shoeless and sweaty ready to take on the day But you got me in your grasp you didn't even ask me if that's okay Bottle the sand and I bottle the shells where my dad ashes his cigars he's a man on the beach, grilling and smiling with the dog in the backyard Mom's on a walk again, look at the clock again she's been gone for hours toes between the sand, she'll return with a smile and a face red with healthy power But you got me in your grasp you didn't even ask me if that's okay you got me in your grasp you didn't even ask me if that's ok You took it from me you took this from me How could you take it? Take it from me? How could you take it? Take it from me? How could you take it? Take it from me?
