Reasons
03:41
|
|||
We were told since we were young
Kids, your dreams will all come true
Part of me still dreams for part of you
Fast forward through the broken ties and all the countless “I told you”s
And part of me still bleeds for part of you
I know you started to move on
I know you have your reasons
But hold on to this song for me
Cause I’m not leaving
Hold on; it’s a bumpy ride, but hey, it’s worth it in the end
Part of me still needs a part of you
Sing to me, won’t you look at what we’ve done?
How could you leave when you know how far we’ve come?
I know you started to move on
I know you have your reasons
But hold on to this song for me
Cause I’m not leaving
No, I’m not leaving
No, I’m not leaving you far away
Even longer nights make light of everything I want to say
No, I won’t regret mistakes I made with you
It’s a long way down
And I’m not leaving
I’m not leaving
I know you started to move on
I know you have your reasons
But hold on to this song for me
Cause I’m not leaving
You started to move on
I know you have your reasons
But hold on to this song for me
Cause I’m not leaving
Woah
Cause I’m not leaving
Woah
No, I’m not leaving

Watch Me
03:04
|

Lay down the phone
Sit there alone
Holding a cigarette
I don’t even smoke but you are the reason
All that I know
Is that I don’t know
I’m trying forgetting it
My mind is changing like the seasons
But please
Tell me you didn’t watch me
Watch you walk away
What a fool you’ve made
A fool you’ve made of me
And I’d be lying too
If I said that I loved you; said that I need you
When there’s always someone new
So I hope I never find
Another somebody like you
Another somebody like you
Watch you go
Who would have known
You were just faking it?
I wanted to have something to believe in
Suckered in
That’s what I get
For giving you my best
But still somehow you are the reason
Oh whoa, please tell me, please baby
Tell me you didn’t watch me
Watch you walk away
What a fool you’ve made
A fool you’ve made of me
And I’d be lying too
If I said that I loved you; said that I need you
When there’s always someone new
So I hope I never find
And these eyes have burned themselves into the back of my mind
Somehow I didn’t see the signs and you were out of line
It’s not right
It shouldn’t be this hard to let you go
Let you go
Tell me you didn’t watch me
Watch you walk away
What a fool you’ve made
A fool you’ve made of me
And I’d be lying too
If I said that I loved you; said that I need you
When there’s always someone new
So I hope I never find
Another somebody like you
Another somebody like you
Whoa, another somebody like you
Another somebody like you

Boundaries
03:32
|

Where would the lines fall if you tore up and scattered them?
Where could you hide without the boundaries that guide you?
It seems that things can fall between the cracks – but don’t look back
Just try to let it go, cause I know it can overwhelm
This will not be lost
This will not be lost
Take it from me, I’ve come to feel that things are better than they seem
I can’t believe how far we’ve been
Distressed and insecure, it’s hard to tell when things go well
Just try to let it go, cause I know it can overwhelm
This will not be lost
This will not be lost
Take it from me, I’ve come to feel that things are better than they seem
I can’t believe how far we’ve been
When do you take the chance to make it past the things that bind you?
I’ve got to think we’ll make it through
This will not be lost
This will not be lost
Take it from me, I’ve come to feel that things are better than they seem
I can’t believe how far we’ve been
When do you take the chance to make it past the things that bind you?
I’ve got to think we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
We’ll make it through, whoa
We’ll make it through

Throw Me Away
04:08
|
|||
Mama said, don’t you go thinking with a cigarette
You’re bound to go up in smoke – just forget it
And people talk, and people tell me things that you can’t say yourself
But I’ll get over it
The way you act
Got me up this wall and now I’m coming back, down
You had me stuck
And thinking maybe I had screwed this whole thing up, now
Your face might get stuck like that
You try to throw me away, but I’m gonna stay
At least for a little while, cause I’ll be okay
And I got nothing to say to you and that face
At least for a little while
Oh, a little while
Ooh, yeah
The way you act,
Got me up this wall and now I’m coming back, down
You had me stuck
Thinking maybe I had screwed this whole thing up, now
Are you having a heart attack?
Cause your face might get stuck like that
You try to throw me away, but I’m gonna stay
At least for a little while, cause I’ll be okay
And I got nothing to say to you and that face
At least for a little while
Oh, a little while
Are you having a heart attack?
Cause your face might get stuck like that
You try to throw me away, but I’m gonna stay
At least for a little while
You try to throw me away, but I’m gonna stay
At least for a little while, cause I’ll be okay
And I got nothing to say to you and that face
At least for a little while
I know you won’t wait
And it’s okay
At least for a little while
Oh, a little while
Oh, a little while

Hello Possibility
04:00
|
|||
I wake up battered; I’ve let me down
Not much is going my way
But somehow they say things can only get better now
My luck - let’s say it’s all but run out
My gut is telling me I should back down
But I say things could really use changing now
But I’ll be strong
Cause yesterday has got me waiting on tomorrow
And I’ll be safe, cause I know my time is borrowed
Oh oh, I watch myself fade into a better me
So long, and hello possibility
Cause now I’m headed for tomorrow
Hello possibility
I wake up; tell myself “hold your head high”
Now I’m on my knees; I’m telling you I’m paralyzed
Oh, this is overtime
I’m on the line
This is my last shot; I can’t afford to be wrong
Oh but you know that I’ll be strong
Cause yesterday has got me waiting on tomorrow
And I’ll be safe, cause I know my time is borrowed
Oh oh, I watch myself fade into a better me
So long, and hello possibility
Cause now I’m headed for tomorrow
This is all I’m asking for
This is all I’ve waited for
Waited
I wake up battered; I’ve let me down
Not much is going my way
But somehow they say, things can only get better now
Oh, oh whoa
Oh, oh whoa
Cause yesterday has got me waiting on tomorrow
And I’ll be safe, cause I know my time is borrowed
Oh oh, I watch myself fade into a better me
So long, and hello possibility
Cause now I’m headed for tomorrow
Hello possibility
Hello possibility

Take More Than I've Got
03:28
|
|||
If you love me, would you let me know
When it gets harder to breathe than if you were to let me go
It’s a baser feeling, knowing that it’s not enogh
Not a bit endearing cause I know you’ve had it rough
Ooh
Tell me where we’d be without the bitter me
Without the things I bring and tear apart
With no idea of what it is you’d ever see
It makes me want to be a better person
Meet my reality
And take, take, take more than I’ve got
Why don’t you take more than I’ve got
If it scares me, then it must be what to do
I’m still amazed at the time that it must take to make it thrugh
A world of falsity and overwhelming deadly truth
Some days I know it’s not enough, yet I still do try for you
Ooh
Oh I try for you
Ooh
Tell me where we’d be without the bitter me
Without the things I bring and tear apart
With no Idea of what it is you’d ever see
It makes me want to be a better person
Meet my reality
And take, take, take more than I’ve got
Why don’t you take more than I’ve got
Tell me where we’d be without the bitter me
Without the things I bring and tear apart
With no Idea of what it is you’d ever see
It makes me want to be a better person
Meet my reality
And take, take, take more than I’ve got
Why don’t you take more than I’ve got
I wanna take more than I’ve got
Take more than I’ve got
No -
Take more than I’ve got
Take more than I’ve got
Take more than I’ve got
Why don’t you take more than I’ve got?

Used
03:42
|

I’m feeling like a used hashpipe
Set fire to me and I just -
I’m not a mess, but that’s what you implied
Makes me think, maybe there’s something wrong
Maybe there’s something wrong
Some days I feel I can’t catch my breath
I’ll say again, I’m not a mess
I’ve fallen short of what you’d expect
So I think, maybe there’s something wrong
Maybe there’s something wrong
Maybe there’s something
Maybe there’s something
Maybe there’s something
Maybe there’s something wrong with me
Oh, why can’t you just see?
Somehow it happens all the time
But it had never crossed my mind
That if it’s up to me, what I’m supposed to be
It’s not about you all the time
No, it’s not about you all the time
It’s about me
It’s about me
The way you preach drives me insane
But you’ll believe in my washed up fame, the same
Cause you know that I’ll be replaced
And that’s not okay with me
Cause every time we bring up, you get hung up
Why is it what you need, for me to be like you?
What’s so great about you?
Maybe there’s something wrong with you
And everything I do is running circles through your mind
Why do I keep you up at night?
Cause if it’s up to me, what I’m supposed to be
It’s not about you all the time
No, it’s not about you all the time
It’s about
I’m feeing like a used hashpipe
Set fire to me and I just might
I’m feeling like a used hashpipe
I’m feeling, maybe there’s something
Maybe there’s something
Maybe there’s something
Maybe there’s something wrong with me
Oh, why can’t you just see?
Somehow it happens all the time
But it had never crossed my mind
That if it’s up to me, what I’m supposed to be
It’s not about you all the time
No, it’s not about you all the time
It’s about me (Whoa)
It’s about me (Whoa)
It’s about me (Whoa)
It’s about me (Whoa)
It’s about me

About Getting Older
04:45
|
|||
Sing the rest for -
Sing your best for me
Cause my lungs are tired of
Being so sore
Sing the rest for me
It’s getting harder to stand back up
Shake the dust off your shoulders
This is tough
It’s getting older
I want you to know
Of all these roads
Yours will be longer
But you are much stronger
Take it slow
Time will show
Try to hold on to the laughter
There will be a better after
There will be a better after
Sing the rest for -
Sing the best for me
Cause my lungs are tired of
Being empty when they’re open
Being sick of never knowing
One moment, I’m so close
And you know it’s a long road
I want you to know
Of all these roads
Yours will be longer
But you are much stronger
Take it slow
Time will show
Try to hold on to the laughter
There will be a better after
Oh, there will be a better after
And I know
In my soul
This is all I’ve waited on
This is all I’ve waited on
I want you to know
Of all these roads
Yours will be longer
You are much stronger
Take it slow
Time will show
Try to hold on to the laughter
There will be a better after
Oh, there will be a better after
I want you to know
Of all these roads
Yours will be longer
But you are much stronger
Take it slow
Time will show
Try to hold on to the laughter
There will be a better after
(I want you to know)
There will be a better after
There will be a better after
Sing the rest for -
Sing your best for me
Cause my lungs are tired of...
