“I Don't Know”
I've been around this town before
But I don't know just where I've gone
I don't know
And I don't know
And I don't know
Cause I don't know
I made this promise to myself
But I don't follow it so well
I don't know
Cause I don't know
And I don't know
Cause I don't know
This city sleeps when I'm awake
But you make my heart palpitate
Cause I don't know
And I don't know
And I don't know
Cause I don't know
BRIDGE
I wish that you would paint my sky
We could watch the clouds collide
Be the apple of my eye
Dry my tears up when I cry
When I cry
Feed me lies and boil tea
Milk and sugar, honey sweet
Cause I don't know
And I don't know
And I don't know
Cause I don't know
And I don't know
I don't know
And I don't know
Cause I don't know

“What Do You Want”
I’m dying to meet you again
You were never the same person twice
I thought I knew you but it turns out I was wrong
Sacrifice the indignation for the things that have come and gone
What do you wanna see?
Are you coming back this way?
Well I don’t know what pain has told me
I don’t know what I’m am doing
I walk on to you
I am tired of this game
I am so consumed with rage
But I am uncorking me now
And bottling me up
I can’t see just what’s going down
What do you wanna know?
Tell me how much longer can this really go?
And where am I going down this road again
I can’t see you now
I can’t see you now
Whaddya wanna see?
Are you coming back this way?
Well the candle lights into a glowing
Ember, sparks. The Winter’s coming
I walk on to you
I walk on to you
I walk on to you
I walk on to you

“Just Need A Little Time”
When I drive down this empty road
I'm thinkin' about all those things that you told
I'll be fine
I just need a little time
My windows are rolled down
Music is so loud
But I don't hear a sound
I'll be fine
I just need a little time
Go out for a walk, the cold creases my lungs
I light up my cigar
But I don't want it enough
I'll be fine
I just need a little time
Before I lose my mind
BRIDGE
Well I know I didn't mean
For this to happen
And yet it might
Then I go on back through the things that I told you
And then I know, deep down I know, I was right
I just need some piece of mind
To find myself with no one else
I'll be fine
I just need a little more
Just a little time
A little more time
I'll be fine
I just need a little more time

“Split Perspectives”
If I were you I would tell myself that I am and wrong
If I were you I would tell myself that I shouldn't wait here for you
That is what I would do
If I were you I would leave here, go far away
Maybe the Moon
And If I were you I would sit across this table
Waiting for the truth
If I were you
If I were you
I'll understand when I see you again
I'll understand, you don't need me anymore
I'll be a man, you won't see me lost again
I'll understand. It's all good
If I were you I wouldn't know what to say to myself
If I were you I'd close the door on all of this
But I would still fly to the Moon
If I were you
If I were you I would tell myself that I am wrong
And If I were you I would tell myself that I shouldn't wait here for you
That is what I would do
That is what I would do
I'll understand when I see you again
I'll understand, you don't need me anymore
I'll be a man, you won't see me lost again
I'll be a man, you won't see me again
I'll understand
I'll understand
I'll understand
It's all good...

“Remember”
Walking and talking
Escape to my dreams
I don't know what I see
My eyes are cloudy
Rain keeps me dry
That's all this means to me
And I don't
And I don't remember
Why am I here
Why am I here
This isn't working for me
Think I'll just go back to sleep
Sun is setting
Moon rises high
And the stars are whispering
And I don't
And I don't remember
Why am I here
Why am I here
And I don't
And I don't remember
Why am I here
Why am I here

“Loudly Quiet”
Trying to form words from my thoughts
And I don’t know how
And I feel so numb that everything is aching
The air could knock me down
But I’m still standing
I’m still standing here
But I’m still standing
I’m still standing here
Walking through puddles of snow
Winter glistens in my eye
And I wish that I could fall right through the ground beneath my feet
But then I whispered into my own ear
I’m still standing
I’m still standing here
I’m still breathing
I still breathe the air
Here I am
Hold my hand
Here I am
Hold my hand
But I’m still standing

“Not Much to Do"
I’m in the room
There’s not much to do
Oh ho
There’s not much to say
And it’s getting late
Oh ho
Falling for you
Is all that I do
Oh ho
There’s not much to say
And It’s getting quite late
Oh ho
Feeling so cold
And I’m growing old
Oh ho
Waiting for you
Is all that I do
Oh ho
But I’m breaking free
And now I can breath
Oh ho
It’s getting late
But i’m not afraid
Oh ho
I’m in the room
There’s not much to do
Oh ho

Get Your Mind Over It

“Get Your Mind Over It”
Caught in Hell
Bleeding out
You hold my hand
While I scream and shout
That’s when it hit
Get your mind over it
Little lies
We tell ourselves
I was your man
There was nobody else
That’s when it hit
Get your mind over it
Awake in the dark
I cannot sleep
I see your face
It’s just starting back at me
That’s when it hit
Get your mind over it
Bridge
There is so
So much pain
I wanna feel it all
Let it simmer in my veins
Losing control
Let it all slip away
You explained it to me
So black and white
But I dug down deep
It’s never that cut and dried
That’s when it hit
Get your mind over it (x3)

Drift Away

“Drift Away”
I walked on down to the river
But I only found a lake
And I drifted further with the current
Please don’t let me drift far away
The rain falls down from the pale sky
It sees just what it wants to see
It knows only what it knows
It’s just gonna fly with the breeze
So I walked on down to the river
But I only found a lake
And I drifted further with the current
Please don’t let me drift far away
People all around me walkin’
To wherever they need to be
And I’m trying to look at all their faces
But they’re just passin’ me by down the street
So I walked on down to the river
But I only found a lake
And I drifted further with the current
Please don’t let me drift far away
Then I headed in search of the ocean
But instead I found myself a sea
Well it took away some pain and confusion
And now the Sun may shine out over me
So I walked on down to the river
But I only found a lake
And I drifted further with the current
Please don’t let me drift far away
So I walked on down to the river
But I only found a lake
And I drifted further with the current
Please don’t let me drift far away
Please don’t let me drift far away
Please don’t let me drift far away
Please don’t let me drift far away
