Break
02:52
|

your luck ain't running out
it's been walking slow for some time
and as it closes the door
it's looking you in the eye
if you laugh about it now
it don't mean you got it right
I ain't much for figuring how
it's finding out the why
only never do you smile
the heat's been turned off for years
I'm up for another trial
another failure to appear

Hang On
02:48
|

I don't care where you been
you seem alright to me
I've been talking, to your friends
runnin' wild in the streets
hang on
you're sinking fast
I'm nowhere near you now
hang on
hang on
you're sinking fast
I'm nowhere near you now
hang on
never true, what you hear
same lies, same mouth
what's the point? who cares?
I'm alright, underground
on the move, settled down
got it right, do it wrong
don't you think? don't you dream?
don't you want to get along?
hang on
you're sinking fast
I'm nowhere near you now
hang on
hang on
I’m sinking fast
you’re no where near me now
hang on

He's Alright
03:47
|
|||
I'm gonna run myself into the ground
happy to take anyone around
anyone here I might know
anyone here who gets too close
he's alright
steal 100 dollars to get by
I never walk when I can ride
a plan to get straight I'll never do
who needs jesus if he needs you too
he's alright
stutter in my step with every breath
feeling my heart burst through my chest
a weaker man can't handle his high
make it through today, see you tonight
he's alright

Spin
02:40
|
|||
oh, they're rippin' up the streets
the places we know
where we used to meet
we can no longer go
here it comes again
that same old spin
but nobody asks
like we're not alive
born in a trap
waiting to die
here it comes again
that same old spin
so tear down my house
poison my air
break deep hallowed ground
like nothing is there

Town Limits
03:57
|
|||
you can't remember how you got to bed
and all the lights are turning bright red
all business with everything to prove
all the words add up to refuse
looking hard for your voice
your heart is shot and your soul is all noise
you forget how to breathe
everything is what it seems
everybody that shares your blood
They ain’t ever left this neighborhood
they laugh at you when you say you should
"no one gets out, son. it's understood."
it's understood
it ain't easy when you're scraping by
car don't start, brother getting high
spend two dollars for every one saved
now you got a kid on the way
everybody that shares your blood
They ain’t ever left this neighborhood
they laugh at you when you say you should
"no one gets out, son. it's understood."
it's understood
there's no out, only down
even the graveyard is inside of town
struggle more, all you want
home, is where you haunt
everybody that shares your blood
They ain’t ever left this neighborhood
they laugh at you when you say you should
"no one gets out, son. it's understood."
it's understood

Loneliest
02:47
|
|||
find someone who's lonely too
go make her lonelier than you
oh you sell her shit she already bought
run around, do what you want
she'll never leave, she knows it's true
being alone is worse than being blue
she'll never know you helped her drown
don't sweat it too much and put her in the ground
what if, so what, you're calling cards
shrug off her stare, head to the backyard
when it's getting dark and hard to see
fight off the urge to set her free
she'll never leave, she knows it's true
being alone is worse than being blue
she'll never know you helped her drown
don't sweat it too much and put her in the ground

Here is the Here
03:54
|

here is:
the river I jumped in
the song I'll never sing again
the bottle that took my dad
the drink to bring him back
the scar that barely healed
the pain that became a shield
the drug that helps me sleep
the vow I never believed
the path that got too steep
the message never received
the language only I speak
the last time we disagreed
Here is the here
Here is:
the chance I know I won't take
the feeling I just can't shake
the name I heard last night
the reason I won't have to fight
the money I forgot to save
the key to somewhere safe
the gun to answer our prayers
the number for someone who cares
Here is the here

Carefully it Goes
01:21
|
|||
I was thinking about the sparks we made
when you talked to me
Late at night I can feel you
reaching out to me
Carefully it goes
What about the wishes we made
without a star in the sky
It's never too late to believe
in a flicker of light
I know I've been a hopeless case
I'll see you on the other side
Carefully it goes

The Street
02:56
|
|||
with a warmth I hadn't felt in years
it pulled me away, numbed all my fears
in place of all of my cares
nothing on nothing and nowhere
how much we give
not to live
how much you pay
to live this way
safe place, I've never been
let me back in one last time, again
how much we give
not to live
how much you pay
to live this way
this street, has become my only home
we can share a shot, and I'm still alone
and a warmth I hadn't scored in days
it pulls me down while I shudder and shake
how much we give
not to live
how much you pay
to live this way

Someone New
02:30
|
|||
I ain't ever seen nothing like that
a slow burning love burning out so fast
I should have known it'd all turn bad
waking up naked, thinking of the past
someone new waits for you
I know nothing that I say
you and I will never change
someone new waits for you
A full retreat to bury our dead
we pull apart the closer we get
I kind of like the way we dance
nothing to lose, nothing to have
someone new waits for you

Tomorrow
02:44
|
|||
never in a thousand years
could I let this go
I made you mine, in due time
a possession I keep close
all the angels that I see
spread out their wings
whistlin' breeze, sung out of key
see what tomorrow brings
I know all your secrets girl
lying never helps
as long as you let me in
I will never tell
waiting up for you tonight
how'd you disappear?
in the kitchen light, I'm ready to fight
I'm everything you fear
I know all your secrets girl
lying never helps
as long as you let me in
I will never tell
maybe in another life
I'd be someone good
you speak your mind, I'd be kind
nothing misunderstood
I know all your secrets girl
lying never helps
as long as you let me in
I will never tell

Let's Get Out
02:59
|
|||
they were wrong
there's where your were born
and where you belong
string us along
selling lies until
the money's all gone
bring you home
it's just a trap
let's get out
limit the choice
there's no way out
without a voice
make some noise
there's a king to kill
his palace to destroy
I call you out
let's burn down this house
let's get out
