I don’t believe you now that this is over my head.
I’m finding out that they were wrong and,
these things don’t last forever.
I don’t believe you now that this is over my head,
I’m finding out....
Spend the night alone, sifting through the
things I thought were real when I was
young and grounding my two feet.
Drift out of this room, keep your head
above the words they used when you were
young and grounding your two feet.
I don’t believe you now that this is over my head.
I’m finding out that they were wrong and,
these things don’t last forever.
I don’t believe you now that this is over my head,
I’m finding out....
Burning up your lungs, all the words you
never sung while you were gone and
pulling yourself by the seams.
I am not the sun, fixed.
Don’t tell me that it’s not enough to think.
I breathe in and separate the scenes.
I don’t believe you now that this is over my head.
I’m finding out that they were wrong and,
these things don’t last forever.
I don’t believe you now that this is over my head,
I’m finding out....
Concrete falls like clockwork now that I know
how to let go.

Dear Dreamer...

I swear I’d love you forever if you’d quit asking me,
“Boy what is the matter?” Because you already, you already know.
This is the sound of losin’ my head in the clouds
to that siren song. You brought me in, took me apart,
and I’m already gone.
This is the sound of adaptation, of everything you never wanted.
We are not concerned with your concerns,
with how we should ride it out.
Keep on dreamin’ kid, when you see through the end
it’s something you needed.
I swear I’d love you forever, if you’d quit telling me,
“Boy, think with your head first.” Because you already, you already know.
This is the sound of disregarding everything
you said from the start.
You’ll never watch me break apart cause I’m already gone.
This is the sound of adaptation, of everything you never wanted.
We are not concerned with your concerns,
with how we should ride it out.
Keep on dreamin’ kid, when you see through the end
it’s something you needed.
This is the sound of counting down backwards.
I’ll light this town, and I’ll burn what I have found.
This is the sound.

A Compass To The Sea

Well, this is all I recall. Why does it feel like it’s taking us
a lifetime? (lifetime to) realize we
Wanted for years when were younger and we
didn’t care (about the) the things they sold us.
Don’t hold me down. Don’t hold me down.
I swear I’d love you if it only stops raining,
but I’ll just let you down again.
Well, this is all you refer to when talking bout the future,
why don’t you do (something to) take control and
wake up. Believe it. Just tell them that you are hallucinating
(but they can’t) make you give in.
Don’t hold me down. Don’t hold me down.
I never thought this would take so fuckin’ long.
I never thought it’d be so hard to sit and wait around.
My patience burns like a candle at both ends.
It’s glow is daring me to find out where this all begins.
I swear I’d love you if it only stops raining,
but I’ll just let you down again.

Stars

What is left to know? You know that I can make it, I can make it.
Follow the only light on at home. Stars will take you,
stars will take you home.
Call me when you reach the east coast.
Send my love and regrets to the Atlantic.
Follow the only light on at home. Stars will take you,
stars will take you...
Somethings missing and it doesn’t come so easily,
but on the surface the water sways me back to sleep.
Goodnight brown eyes.
Secrets sink like S.O.S. calls that are not heard,
I’ll melt for good if you don’t keep your word.
Goodnight brown eyes.
Tell me anything other than “I’m so sorry, I’m still only
lost at best, looking for the answers in the constellations
or just points of reference.”
When you find yourself, the sky will sing out loud like
whoa-oh-oh
Somethings missing and it doesn’t come so easily,
but on the surface the water sways me back to sleep.
Goodnight brown eyes.
Secrets sink like S.O.S. calls that are not heard,
I’ll melt for good if you don’t keep your word.
Goodnight brown eyes.
From rest stops, roof tops I will never let you down.
Time slows, hold back, let me write this down.
Just make it hurt. Just make it hurt.
Tell me anything other than, “I’m so sorry,
lets just talk this out.”
Tell me anything other than, “I’m so sorry,
lets just talk this out and come clean.”

Everything Is Fleeting

Well, the whole city flooded
when I found out the open road drowned all my thoughts of structure.
Oh, I can’t keep myself from thinking, cause it’s the hardest thing
to stop myself from doing lately.
This won’t mean a thing.
We’ll drive on like the sunlights fleeting, we’ll take heart as the
last song sinks into our bones (to our bones).
They’ll know us when we come home.
I’ve traded in my hindsight for these flawed telescope eyes
just so I could shake this out for once.
When this gets going we’ll get to talking how we always knew
it’d end like this, like this, like this.
This won’t mean a thing. This won’t mean a thing.
We’ll drive on like the sunlights fleeting, we’ll take heart as the
last song sinks into our bones (to our bones).
They’ll know us when we come home.
How do we walk away?
We knew it’d, we knew it’d
come down to this some day, oh.
Adrift and lost for words, so...
