so busy tryin' that you can't see me
holding my hands up - i'm surrendering
i don't wanna fight you so i turn away
as you search for meaning in the words that i would say
cuz they're gone
dead and buried in the song
sang about it and moved on
dead and buried in the song
i hope you know
your open doors are begging 'please, i'm here, come get me'
you're standing 'round and i am far so please forget me
you grasp at reasons while your heart is slowly breaking
you say i rip off all my bandages too quickly cuz they're gone
dead and buried in the song
sang about it and moved on
dead and buried in the song
don't wanna hear me but i tried
if you've got nothin' to say then that's alright
you know what they say, it's that every good thing dies
you know what they say and that's alright
right? right? is that alright?
so busy tryin' that you can't see me
holding my hands up - i'm surrendering
i don't wanna fight you so i turn away
as you search for meaning in the words that i would say
cuz they're gone
dead and buried in the song
sang about it and moved on
dead and buried in the song
i hope you know

the city of roses has thorns, no doubt
too much time with your name in their mouth
now you're thinking of a hundred places
that you're thinking that there might be faces that won't look down
they told me not to bother with you
i told em' not to give a fuck what i do
cuz they don't even know you, yeah they sound like
don't even know you, yeah they sound like fools
sometimes you gotta walk away, you do
sometimes you gotta leave who's leavin' you
nobody gonna do it like you do
nobody gonna do it like you do
hear your voice on the telephone
i know that it feels like you're walkin' alone
like nobody wants to take the bully down
cuz nobody wants their name in the ground
but just trust me
that they want to (yeah they want to)
sometimes you gotta walk away, you do
sometimes you gotta leave who's leavin' you
nobody gonna do it like you do
nobody gonna do it like you do
believe in you

SEAT RIGHT NEXT 2U
03:36
|

won't beg him to stay its over
won't plead until i'm sober
i ripped up any notes he gave me
no need to relive it daily
didn't see the fire dyin'
didn't think him the type to lie
but i was three thousand miles from home
and i just couldn't help but cryin'
he can see you're one in a million (a million)
one day you might see it too
he's loyal as a dog
cuz he's doing what he wants
what he wants is what he's got
it's the seat right next to you
he's got your picture on the wall
and he dials you in his thoughts
like a tired old jukebox, yeah he likes to play that tune
yeah he likes the same old tune
monogamy, monogamy
got nobody left to take from me
i'm sorry of feeling sorry
i can never change what he sees
he won't say i'm one in a million (a million)
he don't see nothin' past you
he's loyal as a dog
cuz he's doing what he wants
what he wants is what he's got
it's the seat right next to you
he's got your picture on the wall
and he dials you in his thoughts
like a tired old jukebox, yeah he likes to play that tune
yeah he likes the same old tune
he can see you're one in a million (a million)
one day you might see it too
he's loyal as a dog
cuz he's doing what he wants
what he wants is what he's got
it's the seat right next to you
he's got your picture on the wall
and he dials you in his thoughts
like a tired old jukebox, yeah he likes to play that tune
yeah he likes the same old tune

OUT HERE
03:01
|
|||
i turn my face up to the sky
the city looks like shit tonight, like every night
contorted in my gut, i question everything
i'll get too drunk to say goodbye
so catch me out that limb
where smaller, newer leaves will grow
push me hard to the left
again, again, again and again
'til i'm out here on my own
her words are dripping out her throat
stale water, algae overgrown
ask me 'bout abolition, only to say stop again
i have smelled bullshit before
so catch me out that limb
where smaller, newer leaves will grow
push me hard to the left
again, again, again and again
'til i'm out here on my own

THE SUMMER YOUR DOG DIED
03:27
|
|||
everybody said you took it a little way too far
passing in and out of consciousness outside the hotel bar
but she never left your side
she made you feel at home
she was good and she was fine
as any person that you know
you lost control of your own wheel
and buckled in for the ride
the summer that your dog died
they don't even know a thing about her
that's what the problem is
cuz everyone goes home, sooner or later
mostly at 2AM
but she never left your side
she made you feel at home
she was good and she was wise
as any person that you know
you called your friends up for a fix
and buckled in for the ride
the summer that your dog died
you couldn't wait to...
turn out the light
start feelin' right
but when she looked into your eyes
it made you feel at home
she was good and she was fine
as any person that you know
you lost control of your own wheel
and buckled in for the ride
the summer that your dog died
that was the summer that your dog died
that was the summer your dog died

UNANTICIPATED GRAYS
04:06
|
|||
you've got new lines across your face
your hair is full of unanticipated grays
every night that she called you
every name in the goddamn book
to try and destroy all of you
well, some of it took
left my clothes on your bedroom floor
and you said "what'd you do that for?"
it's just my bad excuse to keep coming back
without givin' you a heart attack
scared to death of love, it's true
but i just wanna spend today with you
gotta find a new excuse to keep comin' back
without givin' you a heart attack
your story is a tragic one
where everyday meets the settin' sun
apocalypse, she is the only one that could make you feel at home
saw the wall buried deep inside
if you won't let me in then take me out for a ride
let's go drive out to somewhere we don't know
left my clothes on your bedroom floor
and you said "what'd you do that for?"
it's just my bad excuse to keep coming back
without givin' you a heart attack
scared to death of love, it's true
but i just wanna spend today with you
gotta find a new excuse to keep comin' back
without givin' you a heart attack
i've got time to make you mine
days unwind, without you mine
left my clothes on your bedroom floor
and you said "what'd you do that for?"
it's just my bad excuse to keep coming back
without givin' you a heart attack
scared to death of love, it's true
but i just wanna spend today with you
gotta find a new excuse to keep comin' back
without givin' you a heart attack

NO BETTER
03:36
|

i feel much better
ever since i went and killed you in a dream
some metaphorical plea that you might let me be
i strangled out the worst of what you had to say to me
not so different than you, when i was just your fantasy
and all the pretty horses shine and glisten in the sun
you wait around for hours just to sit on top of one
you traded in the cliche of a solitary man
you traded in your freedom like a true american
tell me, how does it feel?
like does it, feel too good to be real?
tell me, how does it feel?
where does all the time go
when you're all tied up in knots
what about the time
you felt like more than what you bought
i looked into your eyes
and saw the magic slowly rot
and you've got so much nerve
to act like it's somethin' that you got
but i know better, that i'm no better
in my own way, you know, i shoulda known better
tell me, how does it feel?
like does it, feel too good to be real?
tell me, how does it feel?

SMALL FISH SMALL POND
03:31
|

would you tell me if you know
where the body meets with the soul
i am so detached i'm someone else
don't move this body alone
severance has taken it's toll
i'm split down the middle of myself
and i don't know if i'm going to be
ten years down the road just dyin' to leave
in the smallest town that you ever did see
still nobody, i'm still a nobody
movin' east away from the coast
to the place that you like the most
where it gets so cold that you can't breathe
hidin' out is perfect for some sick of livin' life on the run
i don't know where i will feel more free
and i don't know if i'm going to be
ten years down the road just dyin' to leave
in the smallest town that you ever did see
still nobody
goin' back, back to where i came from
red flags, whiskey and boredom
broken down trucks in the driveway
nobody if you don't do it my way
i'm so afraid (afraid)
probably cuz i'm ashamed (ashamed)
wanna get away (away)
but some other way, yeah
some other way.
