Shallow Sleep
I'll sing it loud, I'll sing it proud
I'll never know what my life is about
I don't care if I stand out
I've worried about less and it's all gone south
What goes through your head?
You're silence seems to be hand fed
With no ear to lend
You gave up that right, you're lonely tonight
And I won't pretend
So sing it loud, sing it proud
You seem intent on calling me out
Your questions they cast a shadow of doubt
And this fine line makes me want to shout
What goes through your head?
You're silence seems to be hand fed
With no ear to lend
You gave up that right, you're lonely tonight
And I won't pretend
I sing of rebellion
So I don't do what I'm told
I'd strip myself naked
So I could sing about being cold
I'd sing of my happier side
But, it just wouldn't feel the same
I'd strip my life away
So I could sing about being in pain
So why can't I just be proud?
Why can't I just figure this out
What goes through your head?
You're silence seems to be hand fed
With no ear to lend
You gave up that right, you're lonely tonight
And I won't pretend
I won't pretend
I won't pretend

Wanted You To Stay

Wanted you to Stay
It's all over
The evening news
It's all over
Even before it began
It's all over
Before we had time to choose
It's all over
If you see the world the way I can
I wanted you to stay
But you laughed in my face
you wanted things to change
That's the way they were made
They want to give us a label
They want to bottle us up, and send us off
But that won't give us time to breathe
I wanted you to stay
But you laughed in my face
You wanted things to change
That's the way they were made
They want to give us a label
They want to bottle us up, and send us off
But that won't give us time to breathe
I wanted you to stay
But you laughed in my face
You wanted things to change
That's the way they were made
I wanted you to stay
But you laughed in my face
You wanted things to change
That's the way they will stay
They want to give us a label
They want to bottle us up, and send us off
But that won't give us time to breathe

These Day Are Almost Gone
Sit back enjoy the show
It's not like you've got anywhere to go
Turn on the stereo and we'll get stoned
It's not like you've got anywhere to go
It's not like we belong
These days are almost gone
These days are almost gone
An empty field and old guitar
It always seemed like we would go so far
Even driving nowhere in my car
It always seemed like we would go so far
Need an ending to this story
Stick around and write it for me
These days are almost gone
These days are almost gone
So I'll let go now but could you tell me
When this party ends will we still have a place here
So long my friend I'll see you when you
Come around again but don't get stuck in a rut here
Sit back enjoy the show
I know you've got somewhere you've got to go
It's not like we belong
These days are almost gone
These days are almost gone
These days are all but gone

She Knows I Know

She Knows I Know
When you take the bait
You learn from your mistakes
When you rush the gate
You narrow your escape
She knows I know
She knows I \know
When you play the game
You do so without shame
When you walk away
You bear the brunt of the blame
She knows I know
She knows I know
And it's changing me
Changing the way I think

Nothing Close

Nothing Close
He's sunday morning
He's dinner at 5
He's all warning
And no surprise
He's nothing close to me
Nothing close to me
He'll wrap you in comfort
I'll wrap you in lies
He'll put in the effort
But me, I never try
Now do I?
He's nothing close to me
Nothing close to me
He's your way of playing it safe
He's an image you need to keep
You can't wait to tell the girls
That you found someone so sweet
You're gonna wake one morning
You're gonna open you're eyes
When sweet becomes boring
You'll turn wise
He's nothing close to me
Nothing close to me
He's got nothing on me
He's got nothing on me

Hard To Believe

Hard To Believe
I was down
Well I was kicked around
It's a matter of a time when you live in a glass house
I could feel it coming in the pit of my stomach
But ya looked so fine, when ya said goodbye
I find it hard to believe
That everyone I knew
Has been leading me to you
I find it hard to believe
That everyone I've kissed
Has been leading to this
Leading me to this
Leading me to this
I was bored
I was self assured
Kicked around and I came back for more
It does wonders if you stagger summer
But ya look so fine, when ya blew my mind
I find it hard to believe
That everyone I knew
Has been leading me to you
I find it hard to believe
That everyone I've kissed
Has been leading to this
Leading me to this
Leading me to this
I find it hard to believe
That everyone I knew
Has been leading me to you
I find it hard to believe
That everyone I've kissed
Has been leading to this
Leading me to this
Leading me to this

The Last Word
There's gotta be
A better way
Than to take back every word I say
And I must have been born yesterday
But I'll see this through, I'm unafraid
But it's so easy to say
When the words are said
They wind up on my conscience
So easy to say
When a perfect sky, it mocks me tonight
I got the last word
And I'm sorry
I know we've seen brighter days
But solemn clouds are so quick to fade
So hold your breath for one more day
And I swear I'll take all your pain away
But it's so easy to say
When the words are said
They wind up on my conscience
So easy to say
When a perfect sky, it mocks me tonight
I got the last word
And I'm sorry
And I know sometimes I just don't think
And I know sometimes I just don't think
And I know sometimes I just don't think
I just don't think
But it's so easy to say
When the words are said
They wind up on my conscience
So easy to say
When a perfect sky, it mocks me tonight
I got the last word
And I'm sorry

Keep It Simple
Let's keep it simple
You look out for me, I look out for you
We're gonna keep it simple
You look out for me, I look out for you
Throwing away all the expectations
We're Throwing away all the games we've played
Let's keep it simple
We're gonna keep it simple
There's nothing I'd rather do
Than to tuck myself away with you
Don't think act, I'll react
Don't think act, I'll react
Let's keep it simple
You look out for me, I look out for you
We're gonna keep it simple
You lay down for me, I lay down for you
Throwing away all the expectations
We're Throwing away all the games we've played
Let's keep it simple
We're gonna keep it simple
There's nothing I'd rather do
Than to tuck myself away with you
Don't think act, I'll react
Don't think act, I'll react
