Beachy Boy (Spoke Too Soon) 03:16
lyrics
buy track
Slow heart, still beating checking my pulse is such a chore Grey spark, no reason I don't know what I'm looking for I feel the same but see the light The numbness doesn't leave but I think you might These old vices stealing The color in my world I hate feeling the same Each day stuck on replay Looks like nothing has changed I spoke too soon, I spoke too soon again When I'm so far from home You call me on the phone and you Tell me i'm not alone I spoke too soon I spoke too soon again New day, no healing Though I try to downplay Same smile, same feeling But I come over anyways To clear my mind and talk about How I'm coming to my senses and tapping out My cold heart revealing How I needed so much more At peace but I'm still conflicted I'm sober but still addicted can you pull, can you pull me out of my mess? I hate feeling the same Each day stuck on replay Looks like nothing has changed I spoke too soon, I spoke too soon again When I'm so far from home You call me on the phone and you Tell me I'm not alone I spoke too soon I spoke too soon again At peace but I'm still conflicted I'm sober but still addicted am I crazy or not cut out for this? can you pull, can you pull me out of my mess?

I can't seem to trace our steps We forgive, forget but something's missing You try catch your breath but fall back into running circles and I'm just as tired as you and I can't find an excuse don't you feel it we're looking up while we're falling down don't you feel it we're chasing love before we hit the ground we go around I waste your time as you waste mine we go around you try to hedge your bets still you call me when we know it's over I still say it's for the best we agree until you need me and I'm just as tired as you and I can't find an excuse let's talk about what we don't say can you see where this is heading it's endlessly upsetting me am I just crazy and lonely? second guessing every minute not knowing if it's finished

You 03:25
lyrics
buy track
I take a look into the mirror You're not as cool as you thought you were Sure thought the specs would make a winner and All I wanna do is care a bit more For the lessons I bought but can't afford I guess I'm trying too hard to open that door Well I hope that it's just a phase, it's not all about you I think my friends are taking notice It ain't all about how I dress They say I'm coming into focus What if they find I'm a mess, she said, all I wanna do is care about you but you look so dumb, if you only knew Acting all shallow but that ain't true But I know that it's just a phase Take a chance on you There's something better for you

The Light 03:55
lyrics
buy track
Been thinking to myself We used to live so simply Back when the world was young Just a child in a daydream And now those days are dead and gone and all this truth just haunts me It can't be too good to be true Could I have wasted everything Could I see you like I used to? Could you help me to believe you? I'm hanging by a thread praying it can hold me I've seen so many risk it all only to give up everything I think I've lost what it means, lost all it's purpose (despite the pain in the night I'm holding out for the light) So many lines that I've crossed, no hope for perfect (despite the pain in the night I'm holding out for the light) I sold my soul for a dream but nothing's like how it seemed (despite the pain in the night I'm holding out for the light) I've finding myself between my desperation and need I'm holding out for the light I'm holding out for the light

Try to Believe 04:51
lyrics
buy track
it's hard to think about how your name has this familiar sting how it's hard to seperate the million things that we did for so long and how things are now i'll be ok in the sense that i can make it through the day but still I'm wondering if there's a better way than to burn every bridge I crossed with you is this drama naive am I wrong to be hurt should I leave you alone should I rub in some dirt and just drop it you stare me down watch me thrash around I'll give you a fight all through the night and I can't fake a smile despite my rare disease you're not afraid of me you say it's alright and I think that I might try to believe you

Growing Tired 03:51
lyrics
buy track
It's Friday night and the week's sunlight is fading fighting with my heart while I'm in the car and I hate it feeling numb at the wheel, I don't know how to feel simply speaking as I find could my hope come again through the face of a friend? all this fear and trembling reassembling everything I read all these pages turning you're concerned but I hope you can see I am growing tired of this make-believe far too many days where I fear it's just me and this God I believe please convince me that you're not scared of me I won't run away if you think you can handle my heart on my sleeve this month is long as I play along to the chorus set my soul at ease, help me see the trees for the forest nothing left to defend, just a means to an end as you give and take away watch me take in a breath, help me treasure what's left all this fear and trembling reassembling everything I need all these pages turning you're concerned but I hope you can see you may tire of me cause I'm not who I used to be (x2) please don't tire of me cause I'm not who I used to be (x2)

Searching for Something 03:33
lyrics
buy track
I catch your eyes, something isn't right, what's the matter you're stuck inside it's fight or flight your heart is shattered I watch you die 'bout a thousand times late in the night Just speak your mind I'll help you find the thoughts you scatter I'll hold you tight and give you sight despite disaster I know you're mine but still you fight me late in the night Can't seem to trust yourself still running from nothing searching for something I hear your cry for help got no plans of running searching for something I know you feel so disgusting (it's all I know, it's all I know) but could you risk it to trust me? (I just don't know, I just don't...) know if I can shapen up fast enough I want this to be over with, could it be so simple? I know that I'm a mess when everything is tough what could you have to say to me? could you have to say me? (or repeat) I will stick around, just hold onto me You keep running out of time, just run to me can't seem to trust yourself still running from nothing searching for something I hear your cry for help got no plans of running searching for something

You Don't Need Me 05:01
lyrics
buy track
I hear them say you're one in a billion that there's no other one for me some fortune in a world full of cosmic possibility but think about the odds for a second there's no good reason for my "luck" I can't allow the stars to claim responsibility I got a theory, a proposition you're not simply a victim to fate still your heart gave me permission to come right in I know you don't need me but you say that you want me You could be doing fine alone but still you chose to stick with me even on the days when it's to understand why you'd ever want to hold my hand we're both aware you don't need me but you chose me anyways There's something 'bout the human condition the fact that everyone is flawed that gives this romance just a flair of serendipity but if it all came down in a moment there'd be no blame or shame to bear we'll love and lose again for a while in perpetuity I got a theory, a proposition you're not simply a victim to fate but still your heart gave me permission to come right in I know you don't need me but you swear that you want me You could be doing fine alone but still you chose to stick with me even on the days when it's to understand why you'd ever want to hold my hand we're both aware you don't need me but you chose me anyways
