Oh I fell for you Oh I fell for you What can I do I needed you Oh my heart's in two Oh my heart's in two What can I do I needed you We are so far gone I knew this day would come Oh I've got nothing to lose Oh you've got nothing to lose What can I do I'm leaving you We are so far gone I knew this day would come

Tired 02:27
I know you have been Trying to get from point A to point B I know you have been Tired I know you have been Trying to figure what's wrong with me I know you have been Tired But you can trust me when I say Things will get better (They always do) I have seen you when Your eyes are exhausted with smoke round your head I have seen you when You're tired I have seen you when The look on your face says you'd rather be dead I have seen you when You're tired
3.
I thought I was all alone but you found me And pulled me from my home The air is cool on my face Take me far from this place You dug deep in the ground Away from all sight and all sound I spoke of the time that had passed You said that I am free at last And if the night gets dark So dark that I can't see Will you hold me in your arms And tell me all that life could be And if I hide away again From all the little things Will you hold me in your arms And tell em all that life could bring Those years they passed in a blur I though that you told me you had learned I try to keep you in reach But you're changing like the waves on a beach You know I can't help but change Eventually my life gets rearranged I wish I could stay where you are But you can only ask so much before it goes too far
4.
New 02:25
What happened to you You got left on your own You aged overnight And took to the road I know I didn't come at the right time I know that you will come to find I'm the same as you It all feels so new And if you get closer we'll make each other new Why did you leave I know that you're in pain You should be with me So you don't go insane
5.
Upside Down 02:58
My life is upside down right now Bear with me while I figure it out So many things I've said are true But now I don't know what to do When I see you smile I know we should separate for a while I just need to be me I've had this feeling all along That I was the one who was in the wrong But now that I'm away from you I'm singing a different tune
6.
How It Goes 03:09
I remember the day you lost your mind I knew it was only a matter of time I remember the day you fell apart You told me it was from a broken heart I knew there'd be a time When the floors fell out but I was fine You should have said you're leaving me Given me some time to find some peace You should have said it wasn't right So I could've put up a fight How it goes
7.
Boundaries 03:12
I build boundaries I can't see And I'm working on my empathy But when I fall asleep It all falls apart I know that I can't read your mind I know I'm running out of time But some things are so hard to find Don't you agree When you sleep Do you think About me There are times I wish we never met And I think one day I could forget All the times we used to sit And talk The thought of you is stuck in my head It makes my body feel like lead I'd rather deal with anything Instead I'm so tired
8.
Home 03:35
Well I walked down your driveway I need to be left alone You said I could stay here I just wanna go home Home Remember that time last summer We sat in your car and got stoned You could see straight through me I knew then you were my home Home Over the years I grew distant And for that I must atone But when I try to get closer You say I've burned down my home
9.
Water fills your boat You're floundering and sputtering You wake as the waves pull your down I saw you sway You silhouetted on the dance floor You have never acted more alive Follow me I'll lead us to somewhere safe And you can finally rest And when we wake Our brains reprogram naturally And we can know ourselves Fight through the crowd All the sights and all the sounds Find me where your two paths meet In your house The flames are climbing up the walls But we have no trouble finding sleep Go outside And count the stars till the stop spinning You will want to stay And as we light Our cigarettes simultaneously You will be at home
10.
I fell into your arms And when I woke you were by my side I realize this is wrong It was just a matter of time As the months pass by You start to stray from me I can't say I'm surprised There are places I'd rather be It's building up slow And I've suddenly lost my place I'm the last one to know And now I don't recognize your face
11.
Fine 02:48
You know I can't sleep at night I'm afraid to off the light But when you're close I'm fine You know I can't stand the day I can't keep my worries away But when you're close I'm fine And I'm trying to live without you It's harder than I thought And I'm trying to live without you It might not be what it seems You're still in all of my dreams But you said we're not fine I know I'm living a lie But do you think we could give it a try But you said we're not fine Maybe it's time for something new After all we put ourselves through
