- 20 Block
The only life I'll ever know,
Behind these weary eyes.
just a prisoner in my mind.
You brought me up,
You broke me down.
You didn't see the future, now
These walls were built strong.
They'll never let me down.
- 40 thieves
Do you ever feel yourself blinded by the neon lights,
hanging on, only to hang on?
You shuffle day to day to be lost up in the fray
and you're only saving grace is barely saving face.
Time goes by and I wonder will we make a stand?
All we want is to make it out alive,
- All Roads Lead Home
I climbed to the top of this mountain
with no fear of tumbling down.
For one brief moment in time
I freed my mind of this town.
Got clear sight of lights on the hills
just outside the city's grip
and just like that, just like that
- Brace Yourself
So come on bottle won't you help me find the words
That I only ever spit out when they're angry or they're slurred
To ask you why you always scared
When you don't even know whats there
Outside the safety of your door
What keeps you stuck in disrepair
Just let me carry you away
So brace yourself and ride it out
- Eclipsed
Your dead eyes spoke in a decimated language
Of summers past, our momentary lapse,
Your warm breath choked like a sea salt breeze
Left me somewhere in between the spaces in your teeth,
It's time to forget it. It's time to move on.
Stay, won't you stay for the summer because the winter might tear us apart?
I swore I'd never let this happen again.
No never not ever again
- Heavy Lies The Crown
The sun in sleeping sound
the darkness owns these highways
just three more hours
before we see the sun shine!
Remember how that song goes
which's now playing on the stereo
until we share another toast
- Hold Your Breath
Can you glance at me one more second,
Before you walk out that door?
When miles are standing in my way,
Feeling like a zombie everyday,
Those tired eyes will always get me home.
She said
- I Just Called To Say I Love You
No new years's day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring
No song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day
No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding saturday within the month of June
- I Want You Back
When I had you to myself
I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always make you stand out in a crowd
But some one picked you from the bunch
when love was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look.
Oh baby give me one more chance
won't you please take me
- Mt. St. Joseph
How can you sit there in your room like a caged up refugee?
Barely alive and all worn out with the fake plastic trees.
Is it the only thing that makes you feel like life has meaning?
The scars are tattooed down your arms.
All we wait for is everything that used to matter.
Now all that's left is our hope and battle scars.
All we wait for is everything that used to matter.
- My Girl
I've got sunshine
On a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside,
I've got the month of May.
Well, I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl. (My girl, my girl)
- Raining Excuses
When you're with him do you still feel alone?
So lower your draw bridge;
You know what the truth is.
While you can't sleep though the whole night,
He's lying beside you, hiding nights from you.
He's not the one for you.
He knows exactly what to say when you're down.
- Shoot For Seven
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
Waking up and feeling every dream that passes through you and me
It's easier to pretend these nightmares are in the narrative
Well as we read the programs of our lives and practice our lines
This must be a sign
- Siesta Key
It's Christmas eve and we're in Cleveland
We'll make it back if there's no snow
Just like 4 years ago in Philly
When we barely made it home
To all those nights spent on the road
With 8 hours left hours left to go
With the highway as a home
I spent my 25th in Cardiff
- Stamp Of Approval
Don't let the truth misguide you.
You'll never know her true intentions
of all the fear that lies inside you.
Thrown headfirst into submission.
Let's go!
Pray for the day that you can save your place in line.
- This Old Heart Of Mine
Ooh, this old heart of mine, been broken thousand times
Each time you break away, I fear you're gone to stay
Lonely nights that come, memories that go
Bringing you back again, hurting me more and more
Maybe it's my mistake
To show this love I feel inside
'Cause each day that passes by
- Wrightsville Beach
Paint a picture as we're walking on the street,
A collage of paint, cement and steam.
Just like Deja Vu, still life in a dream.
There you stood just watching
