I Wish I Gave Only Love
02:31
|
|||
It's been a weird
couple of days
I wanna go but you wanna stay
I don't know
anyone here
I wanna drive but you wanna steer
And I, I wish I gave only love all the time
Its been a cool
couple of hours
I wanna plug in but you got the power
I don't know
anyone anymore
dead to the core I feel dead to the core
And I, I wish I gave only love all the time

Silver Lining

Not writing
Not writing anything
Bad timing
Bad timing everything
Silver lining
Silver lining on the door
Stop crying
Stop crying anything
Slow dying
Slow dying everything
Silver lining
Silver lining on the floor
Everything has its place
Ill put on on a face I leave hanging by the door
Not finding
Not finding anything
Bad lying
Bad lying everything
Silver lining
Silver lining on the door
Stop trying
Stop trying anything
Unbinding
Unbinding everything
Silver lining
Silver ling on the floor

Annemarie

Annemarie, keep me company
all the birds they sound the same
Annemarie, don't you set me free
when all the clouds refuse to rain
I'd refuse you if I could
If I had the strength you know I would
Isabel, I can't break from your spell
and you don't want me I'm told
But nothings wrong, no you sang me the song
and all my cards refuse to fold
I'd refuse you if I could
If I had the strength you know I would
The neon burns brighter
than the sunlight in the day
the city's gonna kill me
but I can't keep away

Oakland
06:45
|
|||
I've been running
traveling and gunning
between the bars and skies across the USA
I'll move to Oakland
and throw away what's broken
pick up the pieces of my mind across the yard
My body is a vessel
I turned 21 today
nothing new, nothing special
I turned 21 today
I move like death
across a room of scattered light
limitless and empty my mind drifts away
Oh I'm older
another year closer
hearing orders to close the borders of my opened mind
My body is a vessel
I turned 21 today
nothing new, nothing special
I turned 21 today
Tell me where we're gonna go
Tell me where we're gonna go, from here
Tell me where we're gonna go, after all

Evangeline
02:45
|
|||
Evangeline will we make it in time?
you gotta get me to the show
up all night and my mind ain't right
loving with nowhere to go
I made all the way from Santa Fe
your name burning in my dreams
the neon light sure feels right
but I'm dying in the in betweens
Evangeline, Oh my Evangeline
Isabel why's it so hard to tell?
when's my time gonna come?
Spent this life on the edge of a knife
and now two years on the run
You can treat me anyway that you like
I'm just a fly on the wall
But don't you leave me 'round wasted here
waiting 'round for last call
Evangeline, Oh my Evangeline
I'll shoot the stars right out of the sky
with a pistol loaded up with alibi's
Evangeline, Oh my Evangeline

Fish
04:28
|
|||
I wanna be a dog
I don't wanna be a man
I wanna be anything that isn't who I am
I wish I was a fish
Swimming in the ocean deep
Yeah i'd swim around all night and no I wouldn't have to sleep
'Cause I don't wanna wake up
don't wanna go to work
talking all day long you know my head begin's to hurt
Because I wish I was a wheel
I wish I was a bomb
anything that keeps me, keeping on so c'mon
There's a lot of cool bands
I wanna have one too
There's a lot of cool things I really wanna do
But time is running out
I'm running out of steam
I'm running like the sun I'm running right into a dream
'Cause I don't wanna wake up
don't wanna go to work
talking all day long you know my head begin's to hurt
And I wish I was a bullet
I wish I was a song
I'm wishing for the sun but I'm sitting in the fog so c'mon
And i'm tired of giving up
yeah i'm tired of giving in
tired of being good when all I wanna do is sin
Because i'm tired of looking back
I'm tired of looking front
I'm tired of looking in when I don't even give a fuck
Because I wish I was a wheel
I wish I was a bomb
anything that keeps me, keeping on
I wish I was a fish
I'm tired of being Tom
pretending that I know things and talking for too long so c'mon

Paid
01:37
|
|||
I paid the rent
paid it on time
you've paid your dues
I'm paying mine
I paid my credit card bill
to the last dime
you've paid your dues
I'm paying mine
So hang me up
for all to see
So call me Christ
or crucify me
Don't tell your parents
Don't tell the man
Don't need nobody
To understand

Soon
03:32
|
|||
I've just been waiting for my life to arrive
I sit here waiting but it's never on time
I know it's coming soon
I've just been waiting for the sun to explode
I've just been waiting at the edge of the road
I know you're coming, coming too
I know you're coming, coming soon
All day in the city and I wait on the night
All night in the city and I wait on the light
I know it's coming soon
I brought my dinner to the fork in the road
Sick to my stomach and I'm ready to go
I know you're coming, coming too
I know you're coming, coming soon
