Guitar Cop 04:23
Three hours behind the day after mine You are afraid when you feel the ground shake And I would be too if I was with you If I was with you. That’s how it is I feel alright, and I like how I feel. The cops storming in, everyone is sinning. I’m in a fog, I’m all alone I’m on the phone The music’s too loud The cops play guitar I’m feeling so far from you I go for a ride, I don’t do a thing I just do what i like. Think back how I said, Remember I told you, I know you’ll be home soon. All – all of the world is my girl.

Everyone is hiding out, am I all alone in my house? The lights are on, but I can't see, are you somewhere else, are you here with me? Are you here with me? I feel that something's changed, but I just can't quite say If I can't see you how would I know if you're really true? How would I really know if I needed you? And what's it mean anyway, to be alone, in any case....? I'm not looking for a cure for my loneliness I'm not looking for a cure for my loneliness I'm not looking for a cure for my loneliness I'm not looking for a cure for my loneliness Maybe just some good medicine Everyone is hiding out, am I all alone in my house? Everyone is hiding out, am I all alone in my house? In my house I'm not looking for a cure for my loneliness I'm not looking for a cure for my loneliness I'm not looking for a cure for my loneliness I'm not looking for a cure for my loneliness Maybe just some good medicine

Visions 03:55
Oh – from the very start when I said you were my water and you thought I said that I couldn't live without you All of it counts, all of it counts, everything we ever did – (I'm so confused, tell me what I should do) and all of it shows, all of it shows, everything we ever did – (I'm so confused) Is it wrong to be wrong? Is it wrong to be wrong? And are we wrong to be wrong? Are we wrong to be wrong? Ooh, whatever happened to your skills as a telepathic? I still close my eyes and try to send you visions My visions My visions... Make it easy now Make it easy now Make it easy now Make it easy now My visions My visions My visions My visions

Let Down 03:22
We can try and find a way We’ll descend, descend We’ll make amends I refuse to believe we’re sinking Oh, if you want me too – you know I would do anything for you I don’t know how to let you down If you asked me to – you know I would do anything for you ‘cause I don’t know how to let you down Is this reality? I can’t believe who you’re asking me to be To be… Oh, if you want me too – you know I would do anything for you I don’t know how to let you down Oh, if you asked me to – you know I would do anything for you I don’t know how to let you down If you need me too – there’s not a thing I wouldn’t do for you ‘cause I don’t know how to let you down It’s almost like you’re holding a knife It’s almost like you’re holding a knife But you swear you don’t care too much You swear you don’t care too much

The picture is perfect ‘cause you are mine, most the time Asleep on the beach You cover me so comfortably I need to breathe but I don’t really need to... to see The picture, it is perfect It’s all good times, that’s the line Asleep on the beach Lost in subconscious Out of reach, No promises to keep You’re breaking me, You’re breaking me up You’re breaking me, You’re breaking me up In all ways sun, in all ways sun… If you look close, you lose it – in all ways sun, in all ways sun If you let go, it will escape – in all ways sun, in all ways sun Asleep on the beach Asleep on the beach Asleep on the beach Asleep on the beach In all ways sun, in all ways sun Asleep on the beach – in all ways sun, in all ways sun Asleep on the beach – in all ways sun, in all ways sun

Sheep Soda 03:59
I was in the amazing race, but I slept right through all the clues Is it in what we ask for? Is it in how we lose? Sheep soda mustard My memory is another Earth Spinning slowly, still sometimes throwing me Who was it now with the grass in their mouth? I always told you that it wasn’t anything to get worked up about But if I ever lost you, then, I would surely lose myself Who was it now with the grass in their mouth? Who was it now with the grass in their mouth? Who was it now with the grass in their mouth? Who was it now with the grass in their mouth?

I am scratching out all the sad parts of my song, so that you might sing along, so that you might sing along... So take some time to breathe and just sing along with me any words that you can think that might describe a place where you and I could meet. Meet me somewhere in between Dark fallen leaves and newly sprouted things Won’t you meet me somewhere in between? Meet me somewhere in between The words you heard when you first heard of me And the doubt stuck its bitter seed right between those shining liars teeth Meet me somewhere in between The words themselves and what they mean Won’t you meet me somewhere in between?

Enough 05:28 video
You don't see things like I do You can't know what I'm going through You're calling to me, but I've fallen asleep I've been acting, you should know, this is isn't me I've been acting, you should know, this is isn't me It's too much, but it's not enough It's too much, but it's not enough It's too much, but it's not enough It’s too much… Too much Now you don't feel the same to me Nothing’s as it used to be You open your mouth and I know what's going to come out that I've been acting, well, you should know this isn't me I've been acting, well, you should know this isn't me I've been acting, you should know, this isn't me I've been acting, you should know, this isn't me

Hands 04:41 video
Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? Is this a contest, who can hold on the longest? ‘Cause you got me so short of breath Nothing to lose, ‘cause there’s nothing left Maybe I am being naive but humor me, I only want to know one thing... Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? Girl, you know I don’t like what you do but I can’t control you How could you take our love and tell me that it's not enough? How? How did you think that it would feel now? Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? Is it out of my hands? If you really want to be with me, baby, why you with someone else? Why are you with someone else? Why are you with someone else? Tell me, tell me, Tell me, baby... Is it out of my hands?

Fix It 08:02
It’s true, You make me want to be more than I pretend to be In you, I see all I can do And though I’ve made mistakes, I’ve tried to be honest to you I wish it wasn’t so hard for me to tell the truth to you How can we fix it when it’s broken? How can we fix it when it’s broken? How can we fix it when it’s broken? You call me down when I’m down, I don’t know why When you said you’d cut me out, I almost died Oh, how can I let you down all the time? How can we fix it? How can we fix it? How can we fix it?
