Slow Down

slow down close your eyes You’re not alone
everyone goes through this You’ll survive
time goes it won’t come back. never miss a beat
(You think) I know how to act but I’m still learning
if theres never an answer is it really a question, but then why do we have to ask
I guess just accept it and try to embrace it and let every little thing last
slow down close your eyes You’re not alone
everyone goes through this You’ll survive

Lights Out

don’t keep walking home alone, You’re looking pretty.
pale cheeks and a crooked smile get to me every time.
I know its getting pretty late, but the contents of this cup have rendered the tip of my tongue, pretty fucked up.
if You have to call it that
You used to call Me that
does he call You that?
wait for Me at the top of the stairs
can’t wait to see You up there, with the lights out.

These Walls
02:23
|
|||
|
the snows dancing around, my visions a little bit fuzzy
but if I crash this tonight, well I’d be fine with that
because I feel alright with how I’ve been living my life (so far)
and You would’ve been proud, if You’d seen me tonight.
The things that these walls have seen
Are all coming back to me
this long dark drive home is bringing back so many memories
of those late hot summer nights in the tall grass back home
but I’d still like to see You say, “Sorry for what I did to You!”
but I think I’m finally over You

was walkin over to Your place last night. started thinking of all that white light. do You sleep well? where You come from. how I can help, ring your bell.
as we talked about the future, I laughed. (we know it works out, so it goes, and.)

Island
02:50
|
|||
|
You are an island, no bridges to your shore
so theres nothing to burn when You send them home
these waters aren’t friendly, no stars to guide me in
S.S. Relation, crashed into the coast (and I’m never coming back)
just a weekend attraction or a summer away from home
hope You’ve got change, I’ve only got big bills.
hope You like cheap thrills. (and I’m never coming back)

Something You Miss
02:09
|
|||
|
think of someone You knew, back in junior high school the parties or even your first kiss
think of them now moved out your home town, and tell me, the part that You miss.
well maybe You know where they went to or so, You at least try to pretend that You do
the internets a scam, You don’t know where I am unless we’ve talked in the last month or two
the times sure are changing You don’t need to say it twice I’m just wondering what I’ve been doing with my life
I said, “its all predetermined, we don’t stand a chance.” You just smiled and unzipped my pants
I know I learned more just by lookin at stars, than any girl taught me in the back of a car
I leanred how to dream, how to hope, how to wish, just think of the time that you miss (tell me the part that you miss)

Hearts Fall
03:02
|
|||
|
do my dreaming in the morning ‘cause I don’t let my brain think at night
but once my livers done its job in the bright early light, I can drift in and out of Your life
red symmetric sticker she stuck to my wall, adhesive held the slightest chance that we might last ‘till fall, September came and it fell
all the times that You choose You give in to abuse
all the things that He said to get his way into your head
I’m pretty sure You never meant a single word that You said
blue eyes, bruised pride, a broken heart never mends

Realization
03:10
|
|||
|
focus real hard, squint your eyes, what You saw once before was a mess of white lies
stress from your job, bills over due, the smile on your face is pullin me through
it’s the little things in life that make living so sweet, we don’t have the right to cheat our destiny
theres cream for your coffee, butter for toast. just knowing You’re still there matters the most
I’ll meet You in one hour, hope these clouds don’t mean rain. the first day of our new lives together again

Send Me Your Titans
02:22
|
|||
|
send me your titans and I will move mountains, I’ll take you on in many forms
got a book that can bite and a battle to fight I’ll be ready to crash and lock horns
and its not like You to rot the summer, and its not like I’ll see You next fall
1..2..3!
Saunter through cities and crawl beneath valleys I’ll run faster than I’ve ever ran
with your scent on my lips and a flask at my hip I’ll catch You however I can
send me your titans and I will move mountains, I’ll take you on in many forms
got a book that can bite and a battle to fight I’ll kill you when we crash and lock horns
and its not like I made choices back there, and its not like I made a bad call
but its not like You to rot the summer, and its not like I’ll see You next fall
1..2..3!
