Need Your Love
04:08

We haven't spoke in awhile
Oh, I don't miss your words
The thorn in my side is gone so long
I'm heading home alone
Go put your best dress shirt on
Find the closest mirror
Doll yourself, show off some skin
Make up the messes that you love to live in
You show up out of the blue
Thinking I'll pull through
But this fool knows better
You think I can't get enough
But you're a poison I won't touch
What's the point in acting tough?
When I know I don't need your love
I'm not waiting
I'm not scared
I'm not waiting
You think I can't get enough
But you're a poison I won't touch
What's the point in acting tough?
When I know I don't need your love
We haven't spoke in awhile
Oh, I don't miss your words
The thorn in my side is gone so long
I'm heading home alone
You think I can't get enough
But you're a poison I won't touch
What's the point in acting tough?
When I know I don't need your love

Back Burner
03:49

I'm sorry is all you can say
That's fine with me, as long as you stay on the line
I've got so much love to give
But if I'm always waiting
Where will I begin?
My feet are tapping
My thumbs they twist
And I wait, and I wait, and I wait
And I wanna look away but I resist
I think I've been here
Three times this week
And without, and without and without
A word or a call, you've brought me to my knees
Oh can't you see?
I'm sorry is all you can say
That's fine with me, as long as you stay on the line
I've got so much love to give
But if I'm always waiting
Where will I begin?
I'm not a back burner
There's no smoke anymore
I'm done treading water
Say the word and I'm yours
I'm like believing in second tries
But don't get to thinking
I want to count that high
I've found my patience
Time and time again
But looking and searching
For something I shouldn't have lost
Isn't how I like time spent
I'm sorry is what I will say
For holding too tight, and pushing away
It's just I've got so much love to give
But if I'm always waiting
Where will I begin?
I'm not a back burner
There's no smoke anymore
I'm done treading water
Say the word and I'm yours

Should've Known
04:54
|
|||
I need my heart to break so I can feel
I need to know that love is something real
Baby, I'm hard to heal
I should've known on the day that I met you
It was cold, and you told me that it wasn't a date
Too late, I think I'm feeling
I could've seen, as the seeds were slowly growing
I was blind, cause it's hard to find someone who fits
Isn't it, where is my reason?
The way you looked at me, your smile so subtle
Where could I go wrong?
And now we're here, a couple months down the road
And I'm afraid, but so full of hope
Are we okay? I ask on repetition
Then they came, excuses pouring out like sudden rain
I don't have much to gain from you
But baby, this is all so new
Don't wanna lose the way I felt, your apologies empty
Where could I go wrong?
I don't wanna miss you anymore
I don't want my happiness to be a chore
What you put me through is unlike what I've felt before
I don't wanna miss it anymore
And who are you, to do as you please
Not some king, no I'm not on my knees
Not begging for love, begging for you
Oh baby you're playing a game for two
The way you looked at me, your smile so subtle
How did I go wrong?
I don't think I miss you anymore
There are no more bottles on the floor
Baby I don't miss you anymore
I should've known
I could've seen
You weren't the one for me
I don't think I miss you anymore
There are no more tears on the floor
Baby I don't miss you anymore.

Find Your Way
03:05
|
|||
You're asking questions I don't think I know the answers to
I hear the worry in your words what are you gonna do
Your inquisitions put me in a new position
What am I looking for?
No substitution, I'm not sure you're the solution anymore
There's no other way
So I'll just wait right here for you
There's gotta be someone in the universe
A boy who's smile turns into fireworks for me
I think I've learned my lesson
Finally no more stressing
So find your way to me
Find your way to me this time
We're turning pages to a book that seems to never end
But being honest, there's no room for me to play pretend
Still I keep reading, my heart bleeding as I skip ahead
Searching for happy endings like the ones I heard sitting in bed
There's no other way
So I'll just wait right here for you
There's gotta be someone in the universe
A boy who's smile turns into fireworks for me
I think I've learned my lesson
Finally no more stressing
So find your way to me
Find your way to me this time

Different Kind of Night
03:55
|
|||
Staring at my pocket waiting for a light
The one that makes me feel alive
It's a different kind of night
Coax myself to check the time
Time to make up my mind
Should I stay or go outside?
You're not much of a talker
And I'm not much of a dancer
All I need is an answer
I'm in control but I don't know
I see the door in front of me
Turn the knob and set me free
What has this night done to me?
Now I walk these streets alone
Turning stripes to yellow thrones
I don't mind ruling alone
I don't mind walking alone
You're not much of a talker
And I'm not much of a dancer
All I need is an answer
I'm in control but I don't know
I see the door in front of me
Turn the knob and set me free
What has this night done to me?
You're not much of a talker
And I'm not much of a dancer
All I need is an answer

Paralyze Me
04:03
|
|||
You say my name
Brings me pleasure, brings me pain
Wasting my nights
Colors fade, our canvas white
Time for a shift
You're a boy I can't resist
I'm stuck in these surrounding
With your copper arms around me
My feet won't reach the ground
I'm here bound onto your body
Though I try to fill my lungs
The process has begun
Cause your love has paralyzed me
They can keep their thoughts
Still I persist, my hopes not lost
Taking what feels like years
Seasons pass, but still I fear
That I've thrown my bet, you're a name I should forget
But I can't leave
I'm stuck in these surrounding
With your copper arms around me
My feet won't reach the ground
I'm here bound onto your body
Though I try to fill my lungs
The process has begun
Cause your love has paralyzed me
Grab my waist, skin meets and there's a spark
I'll wait, no chance that I'll get far
Oh I think I'm seeing stars
I guess I'll wait a little bit
Your touch feels like the perfect fit
Boy, I'm wrapped around your heart

Your Design
03:36
|
|||
Well you'll be over there and I'll be over here
Dear, you'll get a lot of satisfaction on your own I'm sure
And if you can't find anyone to fit your mold
I'm certain you can get it off with your two fists
Don't wanna break my neck
Drowning in self respect
I'm not an architect
So, why would I worry if the stars were not aligned
Why should I worry if I don't fit your design?
If you can't find a man, I recommend drinks and drugs
I'd be lying if I said I didn't wanna see you rip yourself apart
And I'd also be lying if I said I wouldn't give more time to you
It's over
Don't wanna break my neck
Drowning in self respect
I'm not an architect
So, why would I worry if the stars were not aligned
Why should I worry if I don't fit your design?
Why would I worry if the stars were not aligned
Why should I worry if I don't fit your design?

Blunderbuss
04:00
|
|||
You have to learn to forget
You have to learn to forget us
A painted face you shouldn't have
Wasted days have gone and passed
Not my problem I don't care
Over, over everywhere
Decorations, hallowed plants
No more music, no romance
Think of all the times we had
Wishing they were not so bad
We're falling to this drink
I think we need to move along
Our hearts are on the line
Don't say they're fine
Forget
This life you're living without us
It's blown to pieces, blunderbuss
Aim at me
All your bullets firing fast
Woken up please take me back
Where I can sleep
I beg please
Fall to this dream
It seems we need to move along
Wherever you are
I hope you are forgetting
Well I hope you've had your fun
I hope you're still when you're done
We're falling to this drink
I think we need to move along
Our hearts are on the line
Don't say you're fine
Please fall to this dream
It seems we need to move along
Wherever you are
I hope you are forgetting
You have to learn to forget us
You have to learn to forget

Losing Track of Time
04:11
|
|||
The lights are off
And I see your silhouette in the shadows
Your eyes, clear as day, have found mine
I smile, and you follow
I feel our hands inching closer
I feel a pulse beating fast
I rest my head on your shoulder
I think this feeling could last
Do I look the part?
Could you share your heart?
When will this all start?
What would I give to hold your hands in mine
Or watch the stars with you, losing track of time
I've got so much of my love to share with you
What will I do?
The room is loud
But somehow all I hear is your laughter
You wind up in my arms again
Could you tell me what it is that you're after?
I felt our hands inching closer
I felt a pulse beating fast
I rest my head on your shoulder
I think this feeling could last
Do I look the part?
Could you share your heart?
When will this all start?
What would I give to hold your hands in mine
Or watch the stars with you, losing track of time
I've got so much of my love to share with you
What will I do?
I will lie awake
Hoping you find your way
What would I give to hold your hands in mine
Or watch the stars with you, losing track of time
I've got so much of my love to share with you
What will I do without you?
I'm losing track of time, why can't I call you mine?

The Day I Died
04:51
|
|||
There's no time for a perfect plan
Don't need a right hand man
Only thing I can do is try to feel alive
I guess I'm singing on my own
Taking the less known road
Traveling way back home the day I died
I'm done messing around
My hearts sewn upon the sleeve
And my heads in the clouds
Filled and bursting at the seams
Nothing will bring me down
My sermon will sound
All the thoughts released
Speak now or forever hold your peace
There's no time for a perfect plan
Don't need to understand
Only thing I can do is keep my chin held high
I guess you're singing on your own
I'm moving on alone
Traveling way back home the day I died
I'm done messing around
My hearts sewn upon the sleeve
And my heads in the clouds
Filled and bursting at the seams
Nothing will bring me down
My sermon will sound
All the thoughts released
Speak now or forever hold your peace
I don't have any perfect plans or a right hand man
Only thing I can do is like the life I live
I know I'm singing on my own
The grass has grown, and I've atoned since the day I died
Only thing I can do is walk in the unknown
I know it's hard to leave
Old time's a thief
But I've got so much to be excited for
