Left Before the Leaves
03:14
|
|||
I left before the leaves fell
They trailed the road to my new home
Now I hear them falling
Everytime I feel alone
Left everything I’ve known
I don’t feel like I have grown
They’re saying it just takes time
I’m so tired of that line
Oh, don’t break apart yet
It’s all behind you now
I left before the leaves fell
They trail the road to my new home
Now I hear them falling
Everytime I feel alone
Did not wanna make you sad
To take a chance I thought I’d have
They’re saying it just takes time
I’m so tired of that line
Oh don’t break apart yet
So much in front of you now

Drawing Diamonds
01:43
|
|||
You burn in my eyes and all my thoughts at once
Your smile turns a whole town into dust
You could destroy every single thing I own
I’d still be begging you to take me home
Shine sunlight on a freshly planted seed
Make me believe in everything I read
You burn in my eyes
You draw diamonds through the dark clouds in the sky
When I’m next to you
|

I sit so patiently
Waiting for the end or company
Through tired eyes
I can’t shake thoughts of leaving in the night
Hiding messages
Carefully placed and you just looked straight
Ooo I thought you could see through
OooOoOoo I thought you could see through
The mask, a heavy sight
Jet black, in fact, it's been weighing on my mind
Uninspired
So I’m focusing on focusing my light
To a siren’s call
A midnight toll you could not hear
Ooo I thought you could see through
OooOoOoo I thought you could see through

Come Over
03:11
|
|||
You wanted to hear everything
When I was splitting at the seams
Made me so serene
I wanna be your anything
Come over
I’m already in bed
Waiting for you to crawl inside of my head
Tie me to your string
Keep me by your side all spring
Watching colors bloom
Outta the window of my room
Come over
I’m already in bed
Waiting for you to crawl inside of my head

Matchbook
02:44
|
|||
I’ve been skirting round the edge of the world
With a map saying “head for the pearl”
and a matchbook, I’m torching my trail
I’ve been skirting round the edge of the world
I’m at rest, let the chemicals play
Haven’t been myself anyway
Heard a voice I could swear that I knew
Saying “boy, I see right through you
How do you live like you do?
Thought it was bright blue…..”
Stacking debts that I don’t wanna pay
Can’t afford that shit anyway
Once again I’m bound to be late
It might just be my fate
It might just be my fate
It might just ring true
How’d I get so blue?
How’d I get so blue?

Sunshine Fix
02:59
|
|||
Too broke to go out
Too sad to stay home
Come pick me up when I feel low
And I ain’t got no one I can relate to
Who knows me like you do
Been a long time dragging on
But I can try to let the sunshine fix my state of mind
Oh, what if I can’t provide for you
The way that I want to?
If you need a working man
Well I don’t have any career aspirations
And no motivation to resign to a nine to five
But I can try to let the sunshine fix my state of mind
And if I’m too far gone down in this hole
Find me there with what’s left of my soul
I can try to let the sunshine
Always taking its sweet, sweet time
I’ll try to let the sunshine fix my state of mind

Winedrunk
03:27
|
|||
I could use your energy
You always move in hyperspeed
Spellbind my broken mind,
Make me believe
That side-eyed offering
Is twisting life in front of me
This warm glow inside is growing all the time
Hypnotizing sight
Let me see your inner light
When I look inside, the past slips away
But I can see it in your eyes….
You’re winedrunk in the afternoon
Winedrunk, I know you
Winedrunk, the way you do
Winedrunk, ooOOOoooOO
Now I can’t believe
Your trust in me means everything
Spellbind my broken mind
Make me believe
I feel asleep in a sunbeam
While you sang the sweetest melody
But I can read between the lines….
You’re winedrunk in the afternoon
Winedrunk, I know you
Winedrunk, the way you do
Winedrunk, ooOOOoooOO

Glass of Water
02:55
|
|||
I need a clear clean glass of water
Feel beat down, starting to think that I oughta
Try to align stars and stripes to find the pride that left my mind
But evil around every turn has all my love seeping out real slow
Hold on, you know
This feeling won’t last forever
Been trying to escape the endless haze of minimum wage
But every job will drain your soul and then come for your bones
Come pick me up
Give me the strength to get up and face tomorrow
Hold on, you know
This feeling won’t last forever
Every day now it’s just getting harder
I need a clear clean glass of water

Puzzle
03:26
|
|||
We don’t need to be alone
It's just my eternal
Need to pull apart and break
The good things in my life
But if I left New England cold
It don’t mean our love won’t grow
Now it seems to me the puzzle’s sitting incomplete
And I’m left wondering what it’d be like if the pieces lined up differently
But if I left New England cold
It don’t mean our love won’t grow
“Oh it’s strong and we’ll be fine”
We say that almost every time
I don’t be alone
I wanna be where I will not feel like this anymore
I wanna be back in your arms, piece up your broken heart
I wanna be where I will not feel lonely
There’s a point of no return I find when the sunlight hits your eyes, they start to shine

Love Alone (Moon House)
05:23
|
|||
I know how it must look to you
All these things I put you through
I’m not as jaded as I seem
Maybe I’d be if I ever had dreams
If it’s too late to make a change
Don’t wait for me, I’ll float on my way
The best years of our lives?
Maybe
It’s just another day
I just want what’s best in the end
A moon house for all my friends
We’ll dance and play among the stars
And never have to be apart like this again
Would you follow me down the old road?
Would you follow me anywhere I wanna go?
Would you follow me into the unknown?
Would you follow me if I told you
I still don’t know where I’m going?
When you find love, you find out
If it’s truly all you need
All that matters in the end
Well at least I’ve got my friends
To make it alright
It's one long lifetime
I’ll find my way home
And never be in love alone again
