8 PM
Driving on this rainy Wednesday
To see him
We both find our beds at the same time
Fast asleep
You are freshly satisfied
And I'm awake
Feeling sick to my stomach
8 PM
On the corner of my street
I can't sleep
And I can't help but lose my mind
'Cause in my dreams
Thought we shared some harmony
But I'm not here
And here I'm wishing I could be

Strangers
03:04
|
|||
|
With every moment
With every rising sun
Romance in movies
And poison television
The expectations
The misdirection of the eyes
A mother to be
A haunted love thief now
Strangers when we meet
(Dancing in the street)
Wait for you to leave
I'll make some money
Off of my misery
Or try the love song
That never comes to me
For every heartache
A bump of cocaine here and there
You need God bad
How dare you say that to me

The Waiting Game
04:11

Help!
I need elation
Just!
Some conversation
Wait!
I'll keep on waiting
I'll play the waiting game
But you always find a way
To force!
Into submission
Stripped!
Of my volition
Fuck!
I start to panic
I start to panic now
But you always find a way
You always let me down
You always let me down
Who needs enemies when I've got friends like you?
Help!
I need elation
Just!
Some conversation
Wait!
I'll keep on waiting
I'll play the waiting game
But you always find a way
You always let me down
You always let me down
Who needs enemies when I've got friends like you?
Who always let me down
Who always let me down
Who needs enemies when I've got friends like you?

Say goodbye to the valentine
Turn around and she's in her car to drive
And everything's okay
Say goodbye to the valentine
Check the mirror and she's always right behind
And everything's okay
Everything, everything's okay
Scratch and dent blonde
Scratch and dent blonde
And nothing is forever
But you put your hooks in me this time
Scratch and dent blonde
Say goodbye to the valentine
Though she's gone, but she's always on your mind
And everything's okay
Everything, everything's okay

Take a walk
You don't even know me
Take a walk
Up to the waterline
Take a ride
Going through the motions
Street light
Shining up and down the street
Make my way down to the floor
How this happened, I don't know
Take care
It was nice to know you
You're free
Free to leave if you want to
Take a walk
You don't even really know me
Now you don't even wanna touch me
So let's go
Welcome in the future
Big thoughts
Swimming all around our heads
And though things
Never seem to work out
Here's hoping for the best
You can take me for a ride
You can take me by surprise
Make my way down to the floor
How this happened, I don't know
Oh, this happens all the time
Oh, this happens all the time
Take the wheel
You can drive it for me
Think I've had
A little more than I need
I must be
Getting introspective
Because I feel
There must be something wrong with me

Oblivion
03:10
|
|||
|
Too dumb for conversation
Even though I'm buzzed it's still mundane
Bored in suburbia
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Oblivion
We go
Oblivious
What's new on television?
The most anticipated moment of your life
Bored in suburbia
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Oblivion
We go
Oblivious
And now everything is everything
And everything is changing
We'll go oblivious

Hey man
You sing what you know
It's all who you know
It ain't what you know
It's in the message
In the hands of suburbia
We watch the city
The town below
Where everybody knows
Everybody and their dog
We'll be here all night

I Am Evil
04:08
|

|
First thing I remember was breathing a sigh of relief
Can't believe I made it here in one piece
But "there are those who aren't so lucky," they said
That's why you're here after all I guess
Incessant thoughts and hopes and dreams
God knows something's wrong with me
Think of someone besides yourself
Somebody, anybody
I moved slowly, but I just couldn't look down
Still too real for a time like this
I kept wondering what time it was
Only a moment
My mind's got no vacancy
Taking stock of who I'm happy to see
All those years just blown away
Blown away
Well, am I evil
For moving quickly after this?
Well, I am evil
I am evil
I am
My mind's got no vacancy
Taking stock of who I'm happy to see
All those years just blown away
Blown away
Well, am I evil
For moving quickly after this?
Well, I am evil
I am evil
I am
Talking shit about
The violators of this place
Well, I am evil
I am evil
I am

Be Mine
02:35
|

|
We were driving in my car
Think we've been here once before
If you want it
You can have it
Anytime
I'll be yours
You can be mine
So be mine
We were underneath the stars
Waiting for the world to fall apart
If you want it
You can have it
Anytime
I'll be yours
You can be mine
Lover, lover
Don't you fall apart
Undercover
You still own my heart
We were driving in car
To watch the whole world fall apart

White Forest
04:53

Through the leaves
Under trees
Where the snow keeps falling
Follow steps
That I've left
Making perfect circles
Voices shape
Infiltrate
Things are not quite as they seem
Try to see
As I try to breathe
I can't see the forest for the trees
Watching me
Watching you
Must be living your best life
Feeling lines
Disconnect
Because this happens all the time
Drive-in scenes
And Christmas trees
I guess you love Nashville now
Seeing green
As you steal my dream
And steal my life
And watch me drown
This memory goes here
This memory goes here
This memory goes here
To the forest, white forest
Through the leaves
Under trees
Where the snow keeps falling
Follow steps
That I've left
Making perfect circles
Voices shape
Infiltrate
Things are not quite as they seem
Try to see
As I try to breathe
I can't see the forest for the trees
This memory goes here
This memory goes here
This memory goes here
To the forest, white forest
Through the trees, through the trees
Snow is melting from the leaves
Running free, running free
Running through the forest
