Endless Possibilities
1st verse
I threw your records out the window
Then bolted down the stairs
I had no time to think
About the perfume left in my hair
Come and find me
When you’re ready to blow my mind
Everything’s hectic
But at least I paid rent on time
1st Pre Chorus
Dodging Traffic
Feeling manic
As I run to the show
Back door entrance
I’m electric
Standing under the glow
Chorus
Endless Possibilities
But I want more
Say to me you know
That I’m not ready
Take your pictures baby
Please just let me go
Say to me you know
That I’m not ready
2nd Verse
I shuffled through the curtains
Knowing they’d want me back for more
Picked up the broken piece of
Rose colored glasses on the floor
Found the afterparty
Why should I wait in line?
No more friendly faces
Tell me is this a sign?
2nd pre-chorus
Missing magic
Kind of tragic
Nothing’s left to be seen
Unattractive
Sentimental
Caught somewhere in between
Bridge
But I’m not on the road
I’m stuck inside at home
Dreaming of what used to be
In some other life
A chance to spend one night
Up on stage
I’m waiting for you in the spotlight

1st verse
Today, I saw you on the lawn
Faked a smile and waved
Traveled home to lie in bed
Pretend it’s okay
I’ve been tripping over other peoples shoes
And their opinions too
I’m Skipping classes to get high & watch cartoons
Every second gone too soon
1st chorus
I want you to know
I Found Out
Don’t wanna see you go
It’s not too late
2nd verse
Stare
Out into the crowd
I don’t see your face
Just another therapy that’s
Ready to be replaced
And if you really want to know the truth I’m lying
Wearing colors that don’t reflect within
Wish that somebody would come to stoke the fire
Feed the flames cause im ready to start again
[Disco]
2nd chorus
I want you to know
I Found Out
Don’t wanna see you go
We can learn how to change
Bridge
People are told
That it should go unspoken
Figure it out
It’s all your fault you’re broken
Stare in the mirror
And try to paint a smile
Hold back the tears
Another missing child
Scream at the wall
Serve your prison sentence
Shave your head bald
To get your own attention
Drowning alone
Beneath the heavy water
Pulling my head out to breathe
3rd verse
Hey
I saw you by the pond
Call me when you’re free
I’m barely holding on
3rd chorus
I want you to know
I Found Out
Don’t wanna see you go
We can learn how to change

3437 Bates St
1st verse
Your picture hangs
Right by my window
I’ve slept for days
But still feel drained by
This empty space
As your replacement
I wilt away
In winter’s white shade
Then you appear
In misty silence
A calming wave
That crashes through me
Absorb that smile
Into my mirror
Lose track of time
In summer’s warm daze
PRECHORUS
Steeped in sunny afternoons
Those hazy halos play their tune all night
Wish I could see you past the dawning light
Nobody else can tell you what feels right
That even when days are cold it’s nights like these that
CHORUS
Make you wonder
Why your lightning
Leads the Thunder
Reunited for the anniversary
Of your return to set me free
I miss your laughter
We could write
Another chapter
Furled in fleece just
Draw the curtains
Let my arms surround you
2ND VERSE
You hit the switch
The door is closing
The settled dust
Creeping into view
Please
Unpack your suitcase
And rest your head
Next to your old(est) friend
BRIDGE
Every moment you’re away
With weighted absence
I see right through your quilted kindness
Do you think you’re *Ready* to move on
Who’s gonna love you when you’re gone
PRECHORUS
LAST CHORUS
Make you wonder
Why your lightning
Leads the Thunder
Reunited for the anniversary
But now I’ve learned to set you free
I miss your laughter
We could write
Our final chapter
Furled in fleece just
Draw the curtains one last time
And pour your troubles into mine
For the anniversary of your return to set me free
Draw the curtains let my arms surround you

1st verse
i’m staring it down
watching the clouds rise up
over my outstretched arms
turn off the lights
Debbie play something slow
on your twelve string guitar
lay on the ground
watching the shadows dance
across the kitchen floor
just for tonight
feels like we never left
the world outside our door
Pre-chorus
‘cause every time i fall apart it shows
so i just need to stop and let you know
that there’s no better way to waste my time
Chorus
i didn’t know that i could get this high
seeking out the silver in the sky
feel like floating back to you
i don’t ever wanna let go
heaven knows how many things i’ve tried
to make the corners of our life collide
show me every way you move
i don’t ever wanna let go
2nd verse
Wake from a trance
Shielding my eyes from raindrops
Falling in the streets
Spin me around
Show me the strength it takes
To sweep me off my feet
Final Pre-chorus (after synth solo)
And every time I fall apart it shows
So I just need to stop and let you know
I never felt complete when left alone
But deeply share the roots that we have grown
So Grab a bottle from the highest shelf
To take me out from underneath myself
There’s no better way to waste my time

Tangerine Sky
05:03
|

First Verse
Light, under my eyes, forming a lake
I dive away
Soft, tangerine sky, but I’m not around
Lost in the gaze
First Pre-Chorus
I don’t know where I am going
But maybe that’s setting me free
Searching for some way of knowing
The sweetness that falls from the tree
First Chorus
I wanted to know that
Time’s not here to waste away
Looking back you’ll say the same
Clouds may cover the peaks
But step inside your eyes
Look to the open sky
Second Verse
Lush, lavender grove
The roots underground
Expand without sound
Tangled in sleep, I turn to the east
At dawn’s edge a rising sun speaks
Second Pre-Chorus
I don’t know where I am going
But maybe that’s setting me free
Sit by a river that’s flowing
With sweetness that falls from a tree
Second Chorus
I wanted to know that
Time’s not here to waste away
Looking back you’ll say the same
Clouds may cover the peaks
But step inside your eyes
Cause there’s a brighter sky
*** 2nd part ***
I needed to stand back
Peer into the light of day
Paint a picture in the frame
Clouds water the seeds
So step into your eyes
Look to the open sky
Third Chorus
I want you to know that
Time’s not here to waste away
Looking back you’ll say the same
Clouds may cover the peaks
But step inside your eyes
Cause there’s a brighter sky
*** 2nd part ***
I need you to stand back
Peer into the light of day
Paint a picture in the frame
Clouds water the seeds
So step into your eyes
Look to the open sky

The Bootleg Fire
05:28
|
|||
1st verse
I count the cracks in the faces on the orange moon
And I dream of meeting strangers in a darkened room
The futures just a phantom it fades out of my sight
Im hearing cars out on the freeway in the dead of night
Say the word and you’ll never have to worry
Trace the stars, to guide you back to the sea
Set the scene as we’re dancing with disaster
Mark (Save) the flower, to guide you back home to me
Chorus
And the fire spreads
Over the canyon
Gentle heat and smoke that fills the air
I keep driving
Towards a distant companion
Name the place and I can take you there
2nd verse
I lend you my attention like it’s money for gas
You know the only thing you ever have to do is ask
I walked through the valley when the smoke had all cleared
Just to tell you I still miss you after all of these years

Phantom Phunkbooth
1st verse
Let the sparks fly
See the rocket go up
In the night sky
Hips move the rain falls
Celebration
Come and find me for the
Invitation
Last house on South Monterey
If you want to
We can dance together
In a dark room
Sweat on the stone walls
Hesitation
See the faces that I’ve
Been away from
Chorus
I’m Borrowing forgotten time
I Lost my reason and my rhyme
But I
Am chic and feeling fine
Velvet jackets and wine
Throw my glitter on and glide
Floatin like a butterfly
Above
The crowd that stands below
It was almost a dream
Ninety degrees the summer heat
Is breathing underneath our feet
Go down
See the sparkle that ignites
Lights that bounce and collide
Too hot to keep the mic alive
I’ve burnt myself so many times
Look on
See the embers as they die
2nd verse
Photographic
Never out of focus
Automatic
Plug in and turn me on
It’s electric
Current flowing through me
Double damage
Clutching the diamonds in their prime
Bridge
And we Pause Cause we’re stuck at the scene of the crime my dear
There’s room to relax in the back of the line my dear
Mix my feelings with tequila and the juice of a lime so clear
Imminent minor threat in a moment sublime my dear

I Never Got To Drive The Go Karts
1st verse
Let’s take a second
And go to the beach
Sand beneath our feet
Give our eyes a front seat
Clean up your mess
Cause we’re leaving this time
Such a perfect crime
But in the back of my mind
You’re wrapped in colors
But you don’t look warm
Threatened by the storm
Overwhelmed inside
Let me take you home
We’ll rest together
1st Chorus
Come
paint me a picture
Or tell me a story
Show me the world
That’s locked away in your head
I know it’s scary
It’s all been confusing
I wish I could tell you
Everything is okay
Know that I love you
And I’m here to hold you
Or give you some distance
So that you can feel safe
It’s temporary
This all will be over
I just want to share a laugh with you one more
Time
2nd verse
A rush of blood to the head
Reminds me we’re not dead
As we’re lying in bed
Come back to me
Don’t you know who I am?
Glitching out when you talk
With your music lost in space
Wish that I could take your place
I’m Afraid to lose you
Brdge
I thought you said you had done this before
I won’t call it in, I can’t take anymore
Striking yourself just to break through the haze
I need to know that you’ll still be the same
2nd chorus
Hold onto me and
I’ll keep you from drowning
I’ll show you the world
that’s right in front of your eyes
I’m terrified
Tell me how I can save you
i need to be brave
But I am desperate to cry
You’ll never know
How I tried to protect you
You probably hate me
For that shitty advice
Give us a chance
At the end for forgiveness
You know that I love you
And we both will survive

Drink Farewell
05:06
|
|||
1st verse
In the wintertime
I think of love and the turning year
Drink farewell
To the people with the mixed up tears
In a blade of grass
I see the twists and the turns of my future and my past
Weep for me
But only if you need
Prechorus
All the darkened streets and satin sheets turn to gold
In a couple feet a single beat you get so old
Chorus
I tell you what you already know
You can’t love someone until they’re too close
The lilacs bloom right after the snow
You can’t have everything till you go
2nd verse
In the heat of noon
I walked west in my battered boots
To a mountain stream
Drank the water and I ate the fruit
In an apple seed
I saw the birth and the death of the branches and the trees
Weep for me
But only if you need
Bridge
Slips right through
Edge of the final page
A tear
