Outside

So I swallowed the gall and I let you fall
didn’t heed the signs
The taste of my mouth as it all dissolved
and it took some time
It unfolds like a shade as it melts into the wall
for me to find
You wanted to stall
so I made the call with you in mind
‘Cause I’m on the outside
tell me are you alright?
‘Cause I’m on the outside
I could never tell if we were on the rise
‘Cause I’m on the outside
tell me are you alright?
‘Cause I’m on the outside
I could never tell if we were on the rise
Flipping back through the pages
we were bounding down the halls
with arms entwined
Little drunk and the blush
painting ‘cross our baby faces in rewind
I’ll hold onto this for so long
I’m not sick of you
All curled up and the curtains drawn
You know the weight of the way we do
You know the weight of the way we do
‘Cause I’m on the outside
‘Cause I’m on the outside
So tell me are you alright?
‘Cause i’m on the outside
I could never tell if we were on the rise
‘Cause i’m on the outside
Tell me are you alright?
‘Cause i’m on the outside
I could never tell if we were on the rise

An empty promise now you’re missing what you came for
It feels ironic to be tangled and bound
I guess the bits of telephonic buzzes are the almost
Mix the gin and tonic and pretend I’m around
It’s a former you
It’s a deja vu
It’s a point of view
Just do what you want to do
It’s a sober truth
It’s a shade of blue
It’s your favorite muse
Just do what you want to do
A tiny glimmer in the corner of a bookstore
But you’re hardened that it feels like a chore
You hope a part of you still lingers in the margin
Reaching for it as it falls to the floor
It’s a former you
It’s a deja vu
It’s a point of view
Just do what you want to do
It’s a sober truth
It’s a shade of blue
It’s your favorite muse
Just do what you want to do
(Just do it)
Just do what you want to do
(Just do it)
Just do what you want to do

Sideline

It was eating away
how we didn’t bother
You were counting the days
and I felt smothered
Now we’ve taken space
and the will to recover
It’s great to see the smiling faces
of our brand new lovers
If I’m honest I’m another
Whole people waver like a landslide
I’m glad you called this summer
I hear you keeping on the bright side
Oh well- we hurt each other
A failure by design
It’s time to clear the clutter
I’m always rooting from your sideline
I know I’ll miss your sister’s kids
and I’ll ask about your mother
Think it’s just that kind of thing
even though we know we’ll never
Oh it hits this type of change
rattles at the shutters
All the sudden shift of lanes
yeah now you’re burning rubber
If I’m honest I’m another
Whole people waver like a landslide
I’m glad you called this summer
I hear you keeping on the bright side
Oh well- we hurt each other
A failure by design
It’s time to clear the clutter
I’m always rooting from your sideline
I think we tried to prove them wrong
just like the kids do
I think you knew it all along
and I think I did too
If I’m honest I’m another
Whole people waver like a landslide
I’m glad you called this summer
I hear you keeping on the bright side
Oh well- we hurt each other
A failure by design
It’s time to clear the clutter
I’m always rooting from your sideline

Only Key
00:40

|
I gave you the only key
Banging on my own front door
Shall we break the burden?
It’s so heavy
I’m inclined to try all night
Left in the bitter sun
Squash out the need to run
I’ve got to find the might
To realize
See it in a better light

The Storm
03:12

You caught me frowning in the mirror
Wont let me blame it on a bad year
I tend to pent up all my anger
and you know I’m quick to point the finger
I turn it to myself
‘Cause I can’t be
Who I used to be
3AM there’s a storm inside of me
And now I’m squirming in my bed clothes
Imagine smashing up my windows
Next thing I’m knocking down my own trees
You find me ripping up my Main Street
And now I can’t be stopped
‘Cause I can’t be
Who I used to be
3AM there’s a storm inside of me
and when we fight
Just know we’re on the same side
It’s all on fire
Down power lines
I hope we’re on the same side
No I’m no liar
I’m just preoccupied

Dandelion

Lacing up to run again
the magic mile
I’ve been having fun
like I’m entitled
I’m a dandelion
still a child
better mow me down
of all my wild
Tendencies
Tendencies
On the way out
she said “I’m not gonna watch you as you float away”
I’m not looking for no one but my own self to blame
I’m not trying to strand you while you lay awake
I’m just hoping you’re here when I return
No one asks me anymore
It’s out of style
Blocking out my closest friends all the while
Breaking myself up again in two piles
Better scrub me down
of all my vile
Tendencies
Tendencies
On the way out
she said “I’m not gonna watch you as you float away”
I’m not looking for no one but my damn self to blame
I’m not trying to strand you while you lay awake
I’m just hoping you’re here when I return

High

I’ll just pretend we’re in an indie film
Play a soundtrack loud as we drive away from your hotel
As if we’re underneath some spell
Slam on the gas I start to question myself
Tonight you know I better catch that flight
Oh you learned oh you learned
You found I barely have my head on tight
Throw it all to the wind
Oh yes I’m high
and I’m tired
Tongue tied
Can’t tell you why
why
but you’re right
I know that’s what you’d rather hear
Your buckle clicked as we broke through
With a look so cold
Beside the paper moon
Tonight I don’t how to act surprised
Let it burn let it burn
It’s like you hardly even had to try
Throw it all to the wind
Oh yes I’m high
and I’m tired
Tongue tied
Can’t tell you why
why
but you’re right
I know that’s what you’d rather hear
Throw it all to the wind
Oh yes I’m high
and I’m tired
Tongue tied
Can’t tell you why
why
but you’re right
I know that’s what you’d rather hear
I know that’s what you’d rather hear
I know that’s what you’d rather hear

Meltdown
02:58
|

|
Now we’re finally taking it serious
What took so long?
I’m sick of feeling deliriously blind
I wonder should I stick around
Cuts you to the bone are you bleeding yet?
You said it we’ve got a lot in common
But then you fade into the background
And now that all of the chips are falling
Five seconds away from a meltdown
Seconds away from the broke bough
Seconds away from the unsound
Seconds away from the body count
When did I become quite so delicate
what for?
‘Cause now I tend to think I’m irrelevant
and wrong
Desensitize you to the nines
Fine
but then it starts to overdevelop and
we’ve let a lot build up here
You said it we’ve got a lot in common
But then you fade into the background
And now that all of the chips are falling
Five seconds away from a meltdown
Seconds away from the broke bough
Seconds away from the unsound
Seconds away from the body count
Five seconds away from a meltdown
Five seconds away from a meltdown
Five seconds away from a meltdown
Five seconds away from a meltdown

Wedding Guest

Is my shirt too tight?
Do I seem all right?
Do I look like a boy
in a suit and tie?
Nice to meet you
I am fine
I’m having a real nice time
Thanks so much for having me
Hold one moment I just might be
Losing it
Hard to believe a safety pin
holds it all together
I am crawling in my skin
I’m sizzling on the frying pan
Do I make you uneasy?
Shaky hands
spilled all my medicine
and now I’m sick again
Can I slip away
to a safer place?
To a body that feels okay
Find a state of grace
Ladies in the bathroom line
staring in fluorescent light
Try to smile don’t offend
Will this party ever end?
I’m losing it
Hard to believe a safety pin
holds it all together
I am crawling in my skin
I’m sizzling on the frying pan
Do I make you uneasy?
Shaky hands
spilled all my medicine
and now i’m sick again

Swerve

Things are falling to shit again
your friends tie it up in a bow
You’re not making any moves
but you still want a place to go
You take one hard on the chin again
like you did just an hour ago
You’re not fooling anyone
and they all have the want to know
And now you’re hitting the walls again
Your fears stacking up in a pile
but you’re not scared of anything you say
with a crooked smile
You take one right to the heart and then you stall
on the second mile
but you’re not taking any calls
and you’re deadset against the dial
You want to stay right with everyone
You want to go left alone
You want to stay right with everyone
You want to go left alone
You want to stay right with everyone
You want to go left alone
You want to stay right with everyone
You want to go left alone
You want to stay right with everyone
You want to go left alone
You want to stay right with everyone
You want to go left alone
