Don’t your cry my dear
There’s no need to grieve
I am still right here
I will never leave
Lies will have their way
Of making you believe
But if you choose to stay
You can never leave
Oh he should’ve given you love he should’ve given you
Oh he should’ve given you trust he should’ve given you
Oh he should’ve given you hope he should’ve given you
He’s just got you falling in love and now you’re falling
Oh he could’ve given you strength he could’ve given you
Oh he could’ve given you warmth he could’ve given you
Oh he could’ve given you joy he could’ve given you
He’s just got you falling in love and now you’re falling through
Never cast your pearls
Before the dirty swine
You’re not of this world
You don’t need a sign
Oh he should’ve given you love he should’ve given you
Oh he should’ve given you trust he should’ve given you
Oh he should’ve given you hope he should’ve given you
He’s just got you falling in love and now you’re falling
Oh he could’ve given you strength he could’ve given you
Oh he could’ve given you warmth he could’ve given you
Oh he could’ve given you joy he could’ve given you
He’s just got you falling in love and now you’re falling through
ooooh

All These Hours
04:39

Tell me it’s a season
Tell me things will change
Dark will turn to light and
White will turn to green
Tell me it’s not a lie
I cannot cry in vain
You know I’ll drink in all
The sweet words you say
All these hours I...
All these hours
All these hours
I believed
Could I be deceived
Could I be deceived
Could I be could I be could I be
Deceived
I’m running out of time
But this won’t be the end for me
You’ve taken what was mine
But this won’t be the end
This won’t be the end for me
This won’t be the end
For me
I don’t know who I am
So tell me who you are
And how can I put my faith
In everything you are
All these hours I...
All these hours
All these hours
I believed
Could I be deceived
Could I be deceived
Could I be could I be could I be
Deceived
I’m running out of time
But this won’t be the end for me
You’ve taken what was mine
But this won’t be the end
This won’t be the end for me
This won’t be the end
For me

In Your Room
03:31
|
|||
Catapulted through the door
Into a state of poverty
Burned by cold synthetic lights
Exposed for every eye to see
And nothing is quite what it seems
Here in this reality
But in your room
In your room
In your room
I was safe and warm
Misdirected troubadour
Living each day so wastefully
Rising to the left and right
Falling simultaneously
And nothing is quite what it seems
When there is no gurantee
But in your room
In your room
In your room
I was safe and warm
In your room
In your room
In your room
Two hearts once in sync
Now so offbeat
Oooh
Oooh
In your room
In your room
In your room
Two hearts once in sync
Now so offbeat

Not Another Timid Soul
02:49
|
|||
Got my neck pointed at your head
I wish could count my frets instead
But you hum a tune I never hear
And your presence takes away my fear
And now
I don’t wanna chase you around
And now
I don’t wanna cut you down
And now
I don’t wanna take control
But I am not another timid soul
You say you see my words in the air
They float around you while you sit and stare
And I’m not sure what planet you’re from
If I knew don’t you think I’d come?
And now
I don’t wanna chase you around
And now
I don’t wanna cut you down
And now
I don’t wanna take control
But I am not another timid soul
I’m not another timid soul
I’m not another timid soul
Oh oh oh
I’m not another timid soul
And I’m not gonna take control

Loss has a disfigured face
with a crooked smile that will not wait for me
to comprehend the truth of this piercing reality
Oh what
I wouldn't do
To have you come back home
But that's the way it goes
And I suppose
Your light was on and now it's off
But that's the way it goes
And now I know
Your eyes were opened and now they're closed
Pain was a familiar chore
With a heavy weight demanding more of your
short time and energy
Until you were too weak to see
Oh what I wouldn't do
To have you come back home
But that's the way it goes
And I suppose
Your light was on and now it's off
But that's the way it goes
And now I know
Your eyes were opened and now they're closed
When your eyes were open
You taught me to believe
We'd see each other again
Yeah you taught me to believe...
And that's the way it goes
And I suppose
Your light was on and now it's off
That's the way it goes
And now I know
Your eyes were opened and now they're closed

Tiny Little Secrets
02:42
|
|||
Tiny little secrets
Live inside my head
Tiny little secrets
Fill me up with dread
And if I gave you one to carry
Would you still love me?
Do you think that we could bury
It for eternity?
Would you like to see all of them?
Some are sitting in my garbage bin
Some are flushed into the cold ocean
Some are lying in my diary
Tiny little secrets
All grown up so fast
I thought that they would disappear if
I kept them in the past
Would you like to see all of them?
Some are sitting in my garbage bin
Some are flushed into the cold ocean
Some are lying in my diary
Would you like to see all of them?
(I still love you)
Some are sitting in my garbage bin
(I still need you)
Some are flushed into the cold ocean
(I still want you)
Some are lying in my diary
(I still love you)

Quickly
03:11

Oh no here we go again
I can feel it
Oh no it’s happening again
I can hear it
I woke up this morning
Feeling heavy
Something weighed upon your chest
But it wasn’t me
You’re gonna leave
I don’ t wanna be afraid anymore
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna feel ashamed anymore
And I’m tired of standing at death’s door
Just do it quickly
Something final in your voice
Stung like needles
A sense of resolve in your words
No chance to reconcile
You discarded
I wondered who i was to you
If it all mattered
I left you with nothing left to do
But to
Leave
So quickly
I don’ t wanna be afraid anymore
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna feel ashamed anymore
And I’m tired of standing at death’s door
Just do it quickly
I don’ t wanna be afraid anymore
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna feel ashamed anymore
And I’m tired of standing at death’s door
Just do it quickly
Just do it quickly

Nothing but Something
04:08
|
|||
You're always going somewhere
Nowhere never finds you
Sometimes there's no time with you
And any old time will not do
But when your body seeks to stop
I'll have nothing for you to be holding onto
Nothing for you to be holding
Nothing for you to be holding onto
But something
Something
oooh
You’re chasing after someone
And no one can ever catch you
For you will have had everyone
You know someone will not do
But when your body seeks to stop
I'll have nothing for you to be holding onto
Nothing for you to be holding
Nothing for you to be holding onto
But something
Something
And I'll have nothing for you to be holding onto
Nothing for you to be holding
Nothing for you to be holding onto
But something
And anyone might give you the time you never had
But by then you won't be able to go anywhere
And you might wish to be anywhere but there
And anyone might give you the love you never had
But by then you won't be able to go anywhere
And you might wish to be anywhere but there
And I'll have nothing for you to be holding onto
Nothing for you to be holding
Nothing for you to be holding onto
But something...something...something....something

Unbeholden
03:31
|

You expend energy
Dancing around
Your convictions
Circumventing covenants
I've counted all our words
Unspoken, unthought, and written
Over one million composed
Still nothing was said
Please
No more maybes
Please
Let me love you
Why do you waste energy
Being so mad at me
We only have this time
And it's brief...
Please
No more maybes
Please
Let me love you
Please
No more maybes
Please
Let me love you
My unbeholden

Catch
03:08
|
|||
You're not one for melodies
Or sipping wine under the trees
Or lying down on the rugged ground
Discussing all of life's tragedies
Silver coins rest in your eyes
They're tools you use to hypnotize
The weak spirits who'll always stray
Who you will later demonize
(Is there no justice for us?)
You're not one for empathy
You don't have the faculties
So pack your suitcase while I cry
Ask my soul for sympathy
For your vices as you grin
And hold your laughter deep within
Prepare for your next journey
Cuz you can't feel my suffering
(Is there no justice for us?)
And you think you're all that
And you think you're a catch
And you think I think about you all the time
And you're right
You parasite
Your venomous appetite
My oversight
Now I must go; there's much to do
To take high roads I never knew
If I look back and you're behind
I'll blow blessing kisses to you
And there will be justice for us
And you think you're all that
And you think you're a catch
And you think I think about you all the time
And you're right
You parasite
Your venomous appetite
My oversight
Never again will I let you in here
Never again can I let you in
My heart is just too fragile for you
Never again can I let you in
My heart is just too broken for you
Never again can I let you in
My heart is just too precious for you
Never again can I let you in
Never again, Never again, Never again, Never again!
You’re not one for melodies
Or sipping wine under the trees
