Move Along 03:11
lyrics
buy track
Yeah I'm cloudy in the morning So I caffeinate Clear my head and clean my windshield And I'm on my way And I wish I could remember All the things I say Well I might never know But it doesn't matter anyway... Yeah I move along I just move on Yeah move along Move on And you thought you knew what you had Til you didn't have it And you thought you knew who to love But you couldn't stand it And you ask yourself Why do I have these awful habits? You might never know Don't waste your time to understand it Yeah you move along You just move on Yeah move along Move on And when we're lost We'll be found The open road We go down Yeah we move along We just move on Yeah move along Move on

Smile 03:30
lyrics

He can push, he can touch He can tell you you ain't worth much He can twist, he can lie His friends all say he's not that guy Smile You're prettier that way Smile You've got nothing to say Smile Just act like you're strong Smile There is nothing wrong I am told life's not fair It's not my problem, why should I care? You've got to get yourself together Don't worry dear, you'll get better Smile You're prettier that way Smile You've got nothing to say Smile Just act like you're strong Smile There is nothing wrong He says I'm crazy, it's all overblown Behind closed doors so no one will know It's he said, she said, you should just let it go But I'm not safe here cause he's everywhere Smile You're prettier that way Smile You've got nothing to say Smile Just act like you're strong Smile There is nothing wrong Smile There is nothing wrong There is nothing wrong There is nothing wrong There is nothing wrong

The Wanderer 03:39
lyrics
buy track
It feels like January When it is colder than it seems And I am solitary Can't find a way to make this seem... Like home Alone Here in another city I have a place to lay my head I guess it's sanctuary But living this way it gets... Old Alone What do I do now? There is no distance really Cause who you are is where you'll be No matter where I wander I always end up here with me Alone Alone Alone

My Concrete Heart 03:35
lyrics
buy track
We're made to be fragile We cut and we scrape Wounds sometimes heal but scars, they remain Warm by design Haunted by time But I've got a cure Just mix it up and pour I'll build a concrete heart and it will never break I'll tear the old one out and throw away the pain And I'll never bleed I'll never bleed Again No pulse and no fever No tears left to cry No sorrow, but no joy A worthy sacrifice Maybe I'll miss it Maybe I won't know Maybe there's no difference Deep within my soul I'll build a concrete heart and it will never break I'll tear the old one out and throw away the pain And I'll never bleed I'll never bleed Again Warm by design Haunted by time But I've got a cure Just mix it up and pour I'll build a concrete heart and it will never break I'll tear the old one out and throw away the pain And I'll never bleed I'll never bleed Again

Leaving Town 02:57
lyrics
buy track
I saw the words in your mouth Before this all went south This time I said, it's not my fault I walked around without pride Thinking inside I had died Birds were singing outside my door Do you even recall? Did you see me at all? I heard the tone in your eyes I backed away from your lies This world is not what it seems Shrouded by words you had said Burrowing into my head You brought my heart to its knees Do you even recall? Did you see me at all? Now it's time for me Now it's time for me To go My feet hit the floor You thought I'd stay here for more See me, as I walk on by Do you even recall? Did you see me at all? Now it's time for me To go

Lights Go Down 03:52
lyrics
buy track
Oh, it's tempting You asking me to stay I know you'd let me say Whatever I need to say But you don't really know my heart And you don't know my shame So, it's tempting but I must be on my way And the lights go down And the darkness settles in (are you still here?) And I fall down Over and over and over and over again (And I can't see you) And I don't know what I am doing And I can't tell you what I don't know And these things that I've got, that I can give Are not enough Here, dance with me Underneath these stars Don't resist me If I let things get too far If we just stay in this moment And forget about our hearts Then, just maybe, we won't have any scars Cause the lights go down And the darkness settles in (are you still here?) And I fall down Over and over and over and over again (And I can't see you) And I don't know what you are doing And I can't tell you what I don't know And these things that I've got, that I can give Are not enough For you

Little Girl 02:41
lyrics
buy track
When I was a little girl I thought I understood When I was a little girl I knew I should be good Keep all those bad thoughts in your head Pretend to be normal instead You said it's all just fine Pour yourself a glass of wine Remember to smile and nod Don't give your thoughts on God Paint those pretty lips Wear that skirt that clings to your hips There's no need to speak Distrust makes you seem weak One day you'll understand What it takes to please this man Give all you have, take none You're the moon, he's the sun One day we'll all wake up We'll learn we've had enough One day you'll understand That you can't please this man Little girl

Common Ground 03:35
lyrics
buy track
There's too many bricks laid down for walking There's too many fists held up for fights How many times were you held down so I Could stand up for your rights I have no words for this conversation My heart's been tied up with a string If I believe you've been treated wrong Then what's been happening to me? We're spinning round and round (and round and round) We're never standing on common ground Our tails we're biting We're just widening the gap They it's better late than never I say we've all shown up too late Too tired now to hold our heads up high We revel in each other's shame I see you there right in front of me We're both drowning in this deep blue sea But I won't reach you, I won't even try Your hands aren't raised to meet mine We're spinning round and round (and round and round) We're never standing on common ground Our tails we're biting We're just widening the gap We're all in this alone, together We might hold on for a night Still clinging to our own needs Not waking to each other's plight We're spinning round and round (and round and round) We're never standing on common ground Our tails we're biting We're just widening the gap

Worlds Apart 03:09
lyrics
buy track
My feet are on the ground But yeah, I'm spacebound I'm leaving out tonight On my first class rocket flight And I will find myself a place among the stars I don't think that it's really all that far I will find a way to get to where you are From worlds apart The air right here's so thick But yeah, I'm breathing in I'm heavy, weighted down From all this gravity around I wish you were still here Within my atmosphere But life, it separates from love And we drift away But I will find myself a place among the stars I don't think that it's really all that far I will find a way to get to where you are From worlds apart Ignition on I'm lifting off Commencing launch Countdown 3..2..1...yeah I will find myself a place among the stars I don't think that it's really all that far I will find a way to get to where you are From worlds apart
