Sometimes

I've spent too much time
It's too close to where we grew up
I've spent too many hours
In combat alone, cold to the bone
Sip a cup a tea
All the formalities, feelings of spring weather
My thoughts come together
Life can be sad, sometimes a drag
Alone
Life, a start and an end
I keep pretending I'm fine
Excuse me, what's my name
I prayed last week, what has changed
I do, I say, I'm not fine
One thought at a time, get back in line
Sip a cup a tea
All the formalities, feelings of spring weather
My thoughts come together
Maybe I'm mad, maybe I'm sad
Who knows
Life keeps on moving
So I'll keep on moving along
Pass along the memories
Watch, I'll show you how
Take a step, leap of faith, I'll remain
You're never alone, never alone
Pass along the memories
Watch, I'll show you how
Take a step, leap of faith I'll remain
You're never alone, never alone

The first time I knew you were golden
Fell back like a fool you were calling
I waited a day hoping something
would rise from the grave someone save me
It'll be ok
I waited for you hoping someday
I'll look back on you smiling no change
The day you were calling, heart stop stalling
Filled to the brim, I am dying
It'll be ok
My word she's calling
I hear my future comin'
My word she's calling
I hear my future comin'
My word she's calling
I hear my future comin'
My word she's calling
I hear my future comin'...

Little Man
04:49

I know he'll come around
Let's see how he plays his cards
In the back of my car
Right foot forward
Not much to go back to
He's got nothing to lose
Do you know how it feels to be a little man
In a world that doesn't take your hand
How it feels?
Hasn't it been too long
He can always take some
More of it, more of it, more of it, more of it
Hasn't it been too long
He can always take some
More of it, more of it, more of it, more of it
Back to a corner
Feel the wall as he backs too
Facing no one at all
Started with the real kind
Ended on the right time
Paid in full for his crime
Do you know what it's like to nearly understand
How a boy can turn into a man
How it feels
Hasn't it been too long
He can always take some
More of it, more of it, more of it, more of it
Hasn't it been too long
He can always take some
More of it, more of it, more of it, more of it
I waited nine years for you to lie
Waited four years to do what I needed to
When I needed to
Hasn't it been too long
He can always take some
More of it, more of it, more of it, more of it
Hasn't it been too long

How Long
02:47
|

|
I've tried, I tried each different way
Too long. Too far to go away, hey
I'm tired all the same
Over and over and over and over and
I've tried, I tried each different way
(I tried, I tried each different way)

I Know It
03:46
|

|
I'm at a loss for words
Drivin' through the night
I might be home by five
Tell mom I'm fine
Have you ever had to hold the world
Pressing on your back
The air seems to feel just right
My body's tired
It's not my favorite part, I know it
It's nearly half past four, I know it
Exit 365, my fears
It's never been so near, all year
Power past those droopy eyes, let out a sigh
I know a secret place, somewhere to hide
Have you ever had to hold the world all by yourself?
Drive around from town to town
Running from the past
It's not my favorite part, I know it
It's nearly half past four, I know it
Exit 365, my fears
It's never been so near, all year
Turnin' the corner
Feeling the breeze
Somebody next to me
Someone I can't see
It's not my favorite part, I know it
It's nearly half past four, I know it
Exit 365, my fears
It's never been so near, all year

Cope
03:26
|

|
We got problems, we got friends
We got issues streaming in
Safety blanket horoscopes
No answer meaning simply cope
And we know why we can feel it
Something inside burning all right
And who knows why we're still in it
Something inside, scared enough to hide
(Hi-ya)
Get past Chicago to our home
Get past tomorrow, no we won't
We know it's about to change
Deep in our sins, no one to blame
And we know why we're not feelin' it
Something inside keeping us dry
And we know what keeps on holding us
Fight, you and me, the possibilities
I just want to choose to live my life
Give me something so much more
Go back and forth, stay side-by-side
You were meant for so much more
We got problems, we got friends
We got issues streaming in
Safety blanket horoscopes
No answer meaning simply cope
I just want to choose to live my life
Give me something so much more
Go back and forth, stay side-by-side
You were meant for so much more
I just want to choose to live my life
Give me something so much more
Go back and forth, stay side-by-side
You were meant for so much more
(Hi-ya)
(You were meant for so much more
You were meant for so much more....)

Fall
04:23

I'll take my chances this time
I'll that gold from the mine
No matter, it feels right
I'm sorry, I won't be polite
It's headspace, I have it for free
Thinkin' 'bout me, all I wanted to see
I'm sorry, it's a really high bar
This fall has been a little too hard
Alright, 'bout time
Caught in the breeze
Daylight, my sight
God I can see
It's my pay, write a check to the wolves
Happy, fresh right out of the pool
They said, "Well, you're a little too tall
Don't think twice, step away from the fall"
It's not fair, there's only death from a war
New life, waiting just as before
I won't cover, not this time
New me, same tune to the chimes
Alright, 'bout time
Caught in the breeze
Daylight, my sight
God I can see

Soft Side
03:46
|

|
It doesn't make sense, how people just forget about
Things will not happen, but we're safe away
It doesn't make sense, though, how people just forget about it
Oh, we're watching the waves crash through today
Oh, it's a paradoxical way this life was made
Think for a little bit, what happened two years ago
I can't remember for too long
I think I can recall hearing someone talk about it
Quietly preachin'
I hear it call me, I hear some voice
It doesn't make sense, though, people just forget about it
Oh, we're stuck in the waves from yesterday
Oh, it's a complicated little problem
I don't even wanna think of it
I don't even wanna think of it
Soft side, I've got a soft side
Soft side, oh, I've got a soft side
Listen for a little bit, before you start to talk about it
Good news is all they need to hear
And it's hard to find truth when you seem to always bleed
It starts to make sense, though, when there's a reason why
I hear you call me, I hear your voice
I wanna make sense, though, somebody needs to care about
And oh, you know it's a shame, there's no one to blame
And oh, it's our chance to change, this life we made
This life we made

June

Make sure you don't forget to say goodbye to June
She's afraid
It'll make her happier, it'll make her better for today
While we're over here waiting
Go over there and start saying that you do love June
Can't you see that she, yes we all agree the same
Her seasons don't change
What a terrible time to say goodbye
What a terrible time to say goodbye
We know you'll treat her right
Like a good guy should, go ahead
She couldn't be more prettier,
You couldn't be more shy,
Don't let it die
Step to that direction, all she needs is connection
Yes it's true, you love June
You wait so patiently for a girl like she, so fine
It's now on the line
What a terrible time to say goodbye
What a terrible time to say goodbye
Hold the phone, stop the car
No more waiting for some fantasy
There she is, don't let her cry
She just might
What a terrible time to say goodbye
What a terrible time to say goodbye
What a terrible time to say goodbye

Treetops
03:56

Up there in the treetops
We can climb away
Go back, no chit chat, pass the time away
And when I'm not there
Who's there to show you around
I wanna climb to just show you all that I've found
Brother, I'll be back around
Started from the ground up
Feels like yesterday
Playing back at Woodstock
Nostalgic everyday
And when I'm not there
Who's there to show you around
I wanna climb to just show you all that I've found
And when you can't see I'll be back to the ground
I'll show you, please know that Peter I'm proud
I'm proud
I haven't left you
Remember you have nothing to prove
Lord willin', someday
We'll be on the same way
Be home sometime
See the sunshine
Promise when you get tired
I'll be just a phone call away
Climbing over the trees
Makin' sure you're next to me
Take in all that we see
Fighting for direction home
Blowing shapes in the breeze
Finding their direction home
Take in all that we see
Finding their direction home

Trouble
02:29

Don't go to far away
Don't you know that God will change us
It's now or later, real or faker
Sometimes some lies cause us pain
Don't go to far from the light
There's a source that's never fading
It's here and there, everywhere
Hand in hand, we'll journey through the night
Think of all the times we had
Memories are often fading
There's hope out in the world
Hope out in the world
An old page turns to new

Lost Job

I lost my job to the city
Found out that it wasn't so pretty
It was Thursday when I slept all the day through
By now, I should have known better
What a change when they take your life away
I hope somebody had a better day
I lost my job to the city
