The Reversal
03:09
|
|||
|
In a nation that only seeks to divide us
Cope with the outcome like some kind of virus
Sent down a path guaranteed to collide us
Scope out the man who believes he’s King Midas
Uh oh
Put him on trial
Uh oh
Put him on trial
Advances in logic to the point of reversal
You can’t rob it
This ain’t a rehearsal
Take me higher
Jump up to your flight song
Can’t help but feelin’ like
Somebody left the lights on
Once I was told to stay on the roads less traveled
Streets made of gold tempt me away from the gravel
Take a little look the mirage will unravel
Shiny bricks made of lies from the mouths that won’t tattle
Uh oh
You can say libel
Uh oh
The truth will come find you
Advances in logic to the point of reversal
You can’t rob it
This ain’t a rehearsal
Take me higher
Jump up to your flight song
Can’t help but feelin’ like
Somebody left the lights on
Uh oh
Put him on trial
Uh oh
Put him on trial
Uh oh
You can say libel
Uh oh
The truth will come find you
Advances in logic to the point of reversal
You can’t rob it
This ain’t a rehearsal
Take me higher
Jump up to your flight song
Can’t help but feelin’ like
Somebody left the lights on

Summer Sunrise
03:15
|
|||
|
All alone
I find myself
Immobilized
Guided misrealities
Floating in my mind
I know
Skylit but stealth
I find myself
With nobody else
I find myself
Sending out the vibe that tells
Somewhere between starting up and selling out we lost our way
Peddling recycled notes and a retired phrase
And we rise with the sun without AC
Can I vent about the summer heat in a Cali king with satin sheets?
Go on
Looking in your face
Wrapped around my woes
Open my eyes
Ain’t nothin’ but a disguise
Oh come along
I find myself
With nobody else
I find myself
Sending out the vibe that tells
Somewhere between starting up and selling out we lost our way
Peddling recycled notes and a retired phrase
And we rise with the sun without AC
Can I vent about the summer heat in a Cali king with satin sheets?
Go on

Another Late Night
03:41
|
|||
|
If you want to get ahead
Then you must fit the mold
You'll only succeed if you laugh when you're told
Given the odds you've got quite the risk
Some shots that you make are the ones that you missed
Something about the way that you left it
Got me thinking so many questions
Wrote you a text but I haven't sent it
Oh yeah
Another late night
Are you bought or you sold?
To get to the top
Take a lonely road
Tell us the odds
If you wanna get hit
Some shot you will make off the ones that you've missed
Something about the way that you left it
Got me thinking so many questions
Wrote you a text but I haven't sent it
These aren't the terms that I accepted
Turned me into some kind of skeptic
Worked too hard to let you just wreck it
Oh yea
Set up because it's what was said
You've had enough of second best
Turn up the love for your plans
Oh yea
Something about the way that you left it
Got me thinking so many questions
Wrote you a text but I haven't sent it
Oh yea
These aren't the terms I accepted
Turned me into some kind of skeptic
Worked too hard for you to just wreck it
Oh yea
Something about the way that you left it
Oh yea
Wrote you a text but I haven't sent it
Oh yea
Something about the way that you left it
Oh yea
Wrote you a text but I haven't sent it

Goodbye Juliet
02:45
|
|||
|
I’m tired of living my life like
Something of which you can judge
I tried to share the limelight
But your eyes darkened with envy
I can admit that at first I
Wanted all of your crazy
Since then I’ve come to realize
No longer can I call you baby
Goodbye Juliet
I never really liked you
I liked your silhouette
The first time we met
I knew it wouldn’t last long
Just a quick duet
Was the summer ever after
What you thought it all should be?
You know that I’m a disaster
I’m sure you’ll do fine without me
I can admit that at first I
Wanted all of the ways we
Snuck off into the nighttime
But it doesn’t phase me
Goodbye Juliet
I never really liked you
I liked your silhouette
The first time we met
I knew it wouldn’t last long
Just a quick duet

Love of Loves
07:20
|
|||
|
I wonder what you're thinking when I
Fall asleep before you
I'm trusting you from every point of view
Do you think we share the same dreams
To explore, too?
It was true at that point I knew
Going up in flames in a good way
Passion that I need to entertain me
We got the love of loves
That some long for
Going up in flames in a good way
Passion that I need to entertain me
We got the love of loves
That some long for
Some long for...
Hey!
Haha charade
Hey!
Haha charade you are
I wonder what you're thinking when I
Fall asleep before you
I'm trusting you from every point of view
Do you think we share the same dreams
To explore, too?
It was true at that point I knew
Going up in flames in a good way
Passion that I need to entertain me
We got the love of loves
That some long for
Going up in flames in a good way
Passion that I need to entertain me
We got the love of loves
That some long for
Some long for...
Hey!
Haha charade
Hey!
Haha charade you are
We could achieve greatness
I'm not fine on the wait list
Equate this to a love story with a face lift
Find happiness on a boat off a remote island
And stay wildin' from Belize to Thailand
This is our fun and it's here to stay
Cause we're missing our plane and running away
We love all day
Like what up what up
It's your beauty that I crave
Back up back up
Curiosity killed me like you knew it would
Double Dutch
Amsterdamn you look good
Got a house with a library
Floor with a lounge
With you by my side, baby
Never have to scrounge
So good it'll go on tour
They'll write it in the history books as pure lure
And if you ask I'll never need more
Because you got the love that some long for
Some long for...
Hey!
Haha charade
Hey!
Haha charade you are

Forgotten Words
04:32
|

|
Is there nothing left to say?
Forgotten words all in my brain
We give it away
We give it away
We give it away
We give it away
Is there nothing left to say?
Forgotten words all in my brain
Let’s not just turn and walk away
Can we give this another day?
We give it away
We give it away
We give it away
We give it away
Is there nothing left to say?
Forgotten words all in my brain
Let’s not just turn and walk away
Can we give this another take?
We give it away
We give it away
We give it away
We give it away

Ghost for a Minute
02:48
|
|||
|
We lock eyes
Different sides of the room
Your gaze so suggestive
Drinks are full
And so is our mood
So fucking suggest it
I’d say I’m lucky to have you, too
They say it’s too good to be true
We could be connected
We could be connected
Thought I saw a ghost for a minute
After seeing you nothing’s like it
Can I ask the cost for admission?
Saw you in a dream, I’m a psychic
Thought I saw a ghost for a minute
Didn’t know they made them like you
Pretty quick-tongued for a cynic
Hold your breath cause I think I might excite you
Thank you for coming
I’ll see you soon
Right where you’d expect
On a sunny summer afternoon
Look what we’ve been blessed with
They say I’m lucky to have you, too
I say it’s too good to be true
We could be connected
Thought I saw a ghost for a minute
After seeing you nothing’s like it
Can I ask the cost for admission?
Saw you in a dream, I’m a psychic
Thought I saw a ghost for a minute
Didn’t know they made them like you
Pretty quick-tongued for a cynic
Hold your breath cause I think I might excite you
Saw you in a dream
Saw you in a dream
Thought I saw a ghost for a minute
After seeing you nothing’s like it
Can I ask the cost for admission?
Saw you in a dream, I’m a psychic
Thought I saw a ghost for a minute
Didn’t know they made them like you
Pretty quick-tongued for a cynic
Hold your breath cause I think I might excite you

We Are the Wolves
03:40
|
|||
|
Let’s get drunk and go out into the woods
Yeah, we are the wolves
You know we should
Is this making me feel better than I feel?
Be honest with me dear
When you’re in the dark
You have no fear (You have no fear)
Love the subtle way you sharpen your teeth
Just to be with me
Keep me company
Gotta get back to what I need
Fate comes to fate
And dream comes to dream
Let’s go out and lose ourselves with no one else
You know we should (Know we should)
Bring it all back
You know we could (You know we could)
I think about it all the time
How we could be a family (Family)
Expand the tree
Gotta get back to what I need
Fate comes to fate
And dream comes to dream
When we’re done with the day
Having lost our way
It’s our love’s perception
In the right direction
Gotta get back to what I need
Fate comes to fate
And dream comes to dream
A mid-conversation what-did-I-just-say?
I zoned out on myself
As far as I can tell
Gotta get back to what I need
Fate comes to fate
And dream comes to dream
When we’re done with the day
Having lost our way
It’s our love’s perception
In the right direction
When we’re done with the day
Having lost our way
It’s our love’s perception
In the right direction
Gotta get back to what I need
Fate comes to fate
And dream comes to dream

Guards & Weapons
03:28
|

|
(Ayo ay oh ay oh ay ah)
They decided that my enjoyment is less than legal
Whether or not I share the same thought as most people
They don’t care that you do it
Just where you buy it from
Or there’d be fire in the fields
Not guards and weapons
Guards and weapons
(Ayo ay oh ay oh ay ah)
Tied to a promise
Law-bound to your land
Shaken and stirred
Promised your word
On a bridge of sand
They unmasked a blinded youth
And where they’re destined
Slid down the cabinet door
As they’re met with guards or weapons
Guards and weapons
Guards and weapons
Scarred and threatened
Lines and sections
With their guards and weapons
Guards and weapons
(Ayo ay oh ay oh ay ah)

We planned to make an escape
With that look on her face
That says, “I wanna get out of here”
So we packed our things and ran
No money in hand
Just riding to disappear
The needle on ‘E’ said something went wrong
The bra on the floor said something went right
The tune soft and sweet with the speaker on
The look of her in moonlight
Eyes on the road
But my mind is elsewhere
Her smile and her hair
The way she looks at me
The needle on ‘E’ said something went wrong
The bra on the floor said something went right
The tune soft and sweet with the speaker on
The look of her in moonlight
Light one up
Burn one down
Music of love is the only sound
Layers of clothes cover the ground
A parade just hit a quiet town
Cool when it’s hot and warm when it’s cold
I make the rules and I never been told
Slip to slide, I walk when I glide
Caddy in the chop shop I ride ‘til I die
So speak your mind, girl
Wanna go for a ride?
Cause I don’t bite
And the chemistry’s high
You’re glowing, I know it, you know that it’s showing
I don’t know what to do with these feelings evoking
You and me cast in the ocean
Will we sink, or will we swim?
Who cares we float
Just rescue me again
So we packed our things and ran
No money in hand
Just gotta get out of here
We planned to make an escape
Said that look on her face
Said I gotta disappear
The needle on ‘E’ said something went wrong
The bra on the floor said something went right
The tune soft and sweet with the speaker on
The look of her in moonlight

Seasons

You landed first
You were persistent
But then you fell off
Now it's non existent
If Spring is birth
Summer's existence
Fall is death
Winter is distance
Your image burst
It was consistent
With the sins of love
And moral enrichment
If Spring is birth
Summer's the reaping
Fall must be death
Winter is for weeping
Ooh Wa Ooh Wa Ooh Wawawa Ooh Wawawa Ooh
You want the truth?
You can't handle it
You can't handle it! (Can't handle it!)
Can't handle it!
Oh yeah it hurts
The best things do
When you heal from them and then you learn the truth
Time moves along
It doesn't stop
But we all race
Like we'll beat the clock
I took a jog
On the trial run
My back to the fog
Face to the sun
Ooh Wa Ooh Wa Ooh Wawawa Ooh Wawawa Ooh

I Change Me
03:52
|

|
Youth and exuberance
Old age and treachery
Let your mind trust your body
We’ll live a century
The art is a blessing
It teaches and it learns
What it’s like to be mortal
Written on pages still turned
It starts with a thought
But begins with an action
Like tires on the road
We’ve got some traction
A rising tide and some boats
Let’s all get lifted
Building bridges over moats
Privilege the gifted
When more is given
And less is taken
We form a family
And that’s worth saving
That’s worth braving
And that world’s craving
To be seen
A place of peace
Where war is boring
And loses you money
Maybe you go touring
But you’re killing comfortably
(From your) From your study
Killing comfortably from your study
It’s delusional
It’s animal
It’s disputable
We’re rational
Sometimes I feel like I’m better than everybody
The next day I don’t feel like I’m anybody
I need help
But not real "help"
More like I need another self
A clone I can send off and along
So I can focus all my focus
On this fucking song
Give me a “Hell yea!” if you hear me
Can I get a witness and a jury?
Make sure you get to enjoy me when I’m manic
But what do I know?
I’m just a kid from the Atlantic
Yammin’ on about cynical idealism
Getting’ slapped in the face
By something called realism
I still believe though
And that’s the difference
Between the ones who get it done
And the thousands that didn’t
So one day when those books come flying off the shelves
To find out what that guy was really all about
It’ll start here
It’ll start with peace
I can’t change you
But I can change me
I can ch-
I can ch-
I can change me
It’s delusional
It’s animal
It’s disputable
We’re rational
Sometimes I feel like I’m better than everybody
The next day I don’t feel like I’m anybody
I need help
Not like I need “help” help
More like I need another self
A clone I can send off and along
So I can focus all my focus
On this fucking song
What do I know?
I’m just a kid from the Atlantic
Hoping you get to enjoy me while I’m manic
I still believe though
And that’s the difference
Between the ones who get it done
And the thousands that didn’t
So one day when those books come flying off the shelves
To find out what that guy was really all about
It’ll start here
It’ll start with peace
I can’t change you
But I can change me
I can change me
