How Long

I saw a shadow of you
Tree shadow on the wall
I thought of you, how we shadow
How we were, was that all?
Don’t waste your time cleaning our
Shadows off the floor
We move through these rooms but
We don’t live here anymore
How long, how long
We need to get out get out get out of here
We need to drive out drive out of here
How long, how long
Am I supposed to say it’s OK
To live on just the good things?
You know that’s not the way
Just understand I need for now
The only person in my corner to be me now
And then I’ll be OK
How long
We need to get out get out get out of here
We need to drive out drive out of here
I stopped doing things for myself
Don’t know why, or how long
Now our shadows are so faded
Can’t believe how long I waited
I need to get out get out get out of here
I need to drive out drive out of here
I need to get out get out get out of here
I need to drive out drive out of here
How long

Feet in the Sand
03:34
|

oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Last night I had a dream
I danced with fire and there were flowers in your hair and
We swam in waters blue and green
Don't wake me up now
Don't wake me up now
Sleep, my city sleep
Your buildings holding in our lights
They blink like concrete fireflies
Gonna let them out now
Gonna let them out now
Feet in the sand
Every grain is a dream I had
Life sifted and shifted, whoa
I’m following you, following me, oh oh oh oh
I’m following you, following me
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
So you sung me a song
And I lifted it up into the sky
It turned the stars into spies
Making sure we got there
Making sure we got there
To the land between the tides
One calm and one wild
You took my hand and said let’s go
I took your hand and said I know
I took your hand and said I know
Feet in the sand
Every grain is a dream I had
Life sifted and shifted, whoa
I’m following you, following me, oh oh oh oh
I’m following you, following me
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
And every night
You watch the edge of the sky
Burn down another day
How many times
In all those doors you opened did you see something change?
Now go
And when the stars grow dark and your path seems wrong
You know
You can find me here between the lines of this song, oh yeah
Feet in the sand
Every grain is a dream I had
Life sifted and shifted, whoa
I’m following you, following me, oh oh oh oh
I’m following you, following me
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh

Flying High
03:41
|
|||
Pick me up when I'm down
I'm flying high all over this town
Been around the world never found that treasure
Don't have ex-lovers only ex-whatevers
Keep it going keep it moving now to the last
You can't catch me cuz I move too fast
I'm either sinking deep
Or jumping through the clouds
I'm either blinking sweet
Or screaming out loud
I'm either off my feet
Or I'm running a hundred miles an hour
Don't try to stand with me
I'm flying high all over this town
Another bar spills out I'm hunched up in the cold
My breath follows me around like a ghost
I turn a corner I see you step into the light
My ghosts stood still and disappeared into the night
I'm either sinking deep
Or jumping through the clouds
I'm either blinking sweet
Or screaming out loud
I'm either off my feet
Or I'm running a hundred miles an hour
Don't try to stand with me
I'm flying high all over this town
And I wanna stay young for you even when I'm older
And I wanna make out with you even when I'm sober
I'm either sinking deep
Or jumping through the clouds
I'm either blinking sweet
Or screaming out loud
I'm either off my feet
Or I'm running a hundred miles an hour
Don't try to stand with me
I'm flying high all over this town
I'm flying high
I'm flying high
I'm flying high
Pick me up when I'm down

The Travelers
03:13

Oh we, we’ve traveled so far
I believe we’ve lived a whole life in this car
Let’s get out of the city again
We’ll find a new New England road
You’ll take the wheel and I’ll look at the stars
The stuffed sheep and dog will protect the car
Take me out of the city again
Between shifting gears you hold my hand
Oh we, we’ve traveled so far
I believe we’ve lived a whole life in this car
Oooooh ahhhhh
Oooooh ahhhhh
Let's go down to Charleston Beach
After the crowds have gone home
Tussle the salt from the sea in my hair
We swam out in the dark and we never felt scared
You held me like you’d never let go
We left our cares in the undertow
Oh we, we’ve traveled so far
I believe we’ve lived a whole life in this car
Oooooh ahhhhh
Oooooh ahhhh
Pull off here it’s time to go home
Let’s take the back roads
How many nights like this do you think we have?
I don't know
So let's hold them and keep them as close as we can
Take me out of the city again
Between shifting gears you hold my hand
Oh we, we’ve traveled so far
I believe we’ve lived a whole life in this car
Oooooh ahhhhh
Oooooh ahhhh
Oooooh ahhhhh
Oooooh ahhhh
Oooooh ahhhhh
Oooooh ahhhh

Cold Morning
03:07
|

In fading light
She sits on the screen porch rocks the metal glider
It creaks off beat
With the kitchen clock taken from the old store
In these times I feel you here
In the night
In the night, the night, the night
The air here
Still smells of tobacco and oil
Wafts into rooms
Just when she forgets about you
In these times I feel you here
In the night
In the night, the night, the night
Cold morning
You came without a warning
Cold morning
I would burn my hands to push back the sun
I would burn my hands to push back the sun
Into night
Into night, to night, to night
Air here
It still smells of tobacco and oil
It wafts into rooms
Just when she forgets about you
In these times I feel you here
Cold morning
You came without a warning
Cold morning
I would burn my hands to push back the sun
I would burn my hands to push back the sun
I would burn my hands to push back the sun

Hey Friend
03:26

Hey friend where ya been
Why don’t you call me hey
Before you cross that line
Please call me
Come to me
Your sorrows bring me
And I’ll make them mine
Come to me
Oh, we hate you
You left us your shattered mind
Oh, we love you
Did we tell you enough times?
Did we tell you enough times?
And you’re flying now
Over African skies
Your heart fully free now
Your dreams, reality
I want to punch you
And hug you at the same time
Oh you damn heartbreaker
We didn’t see what you see
Oh, we hate you
You left us your shattered mind
Oh, we love you
Did we tell you enough times?
Did we tell you enough times?

Weightless

Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today I
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today I
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today
Moving slowly through the day I
See my other life
Places when and where I should be I
See my other life
Roommates call my parents and
My mom is crying
Driving up to see me their
Little girl is flying oh I
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today I
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today
Can’t believe I’m standing here I’m
Breathing watching feeling
Can’t even close my eyes I
Stare at the ceiling
They always said you see your life
Flash quick before your eyes I
Never thought I would see mine
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today I
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today I
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today I
Shouldn’t be here I
Should’ve died today

It Comes in Waves
03:46

It comes in waves
An unstoppable force
Onto the page
Leaves me broken and hoarse
Whoever wants
To open that gate
Leave me my smile
Under the veil
Will I be free?
Will I be free?
Will I be free?
Will my demons let me be?
We’re all going
Around the sun
Fighting our ghosts
One by one
Whoever wants
To be in that place
Like an anchor let loose it
Rips through the pain
Will I be free?
Will I be free?
Will I be free?
Will my demons let me be?
Don’t tell me your secrets
They move quick through my skin
They haunt me I’m sleepless
Never come down again
Close it up lock it down
I don't wanna hear
What will escape from my mouth
And steal my comfort of fear
Will I be free?
Will I be free?
Will I be free?
Will my demons let me be?
It comes in waves
An unstoppable force
Onto the page
Leaves me broken and hoarse
