Play It Cool 03:42
Give me a real solution Give me a resolution Give me a reason not to look away When all of the sounds are fading We are anticipating What could be greater than to just give in? I don't wanna play it cool What do I mean to you? I know I'll never win
2.
This pen you hold with no regard This former version of yourself And with the words you whisper This could mean the end You’ll never quite begin I am the moment that you dread I am the middle of the night I am the only noise you hear Inside your room: The sound of giving in One more inch could mean Losing everything But I would dare to dream If I could say to you: If you only knew You won’t allow yourself to breathe You know you’re better on your own Outside, the sky is turning seasons into years You know you’ll never be the same
3.
Proof 04:04
Maybe this is circumstantial Maybe this is evidence I’m tired of running ’round in circles I’m tired, now, of scaling this fence Why should I believe In something I can’t see? The only task at hand is proving Enough to make them doubt it too And I must say that I’m convincing And doubting is easy to do Why should I believe In something I can’t see? I would just as soon Walk away from you I don’t want to waste my time On hoping that it’s true When I don’t have the proof I don’t want to waste my time On hoping that it’s you When I don’t have the proof
4.
Disappointed 04:12
How it all begins Never seems to be How the story ends What I thought I’d found Seemed so promising So my guard came down And I hoped for it And you let me Is it safe to say Almost everything Will end up the same? And now, looking back Is it safe to say That I knew my fate? ‘Cause I hoped for it And you let me You let me believe That you were something else But I was lying to myself And I’m disappointed now I’m disappointed I believed that you were something else But I was lying to myself And I’m disappointed now I’m disappointed
5.
Jabberwocky 02:54
Like a jabberwocky I am hungry for your love In the midnight hour I am hungry for your love You don’t have to want me I am hungry for your love Like a jabberwocky I am hungry for your love
6.
It must be nice to know There’s a boy in Jersey Who would do anything for you Circumstance has left you Washed up on the shore And you do not know what to do And while the summer sun gave way Your judgment called it an early day It must be nice to know That you have your choice Of anybody in the room The only time You ever feel alone Is when you want to And as your hands were taking hold Your heart slipped out of your control And it left you wanting more But more of what, you didn’t know You just knew you had to have it So began the great unraveling I know that you wanted me to stay And I know that you wanted things To end up a certain way But I’ll fight this with everything I am Because I don’t know if you’re right for me And I am tired of chasing destiny
7.
Let the curtain fall This stage you set for me I will stand alone Let the curtain fall Until it’s safe to leave I will stand alone We couldn’t play the part The light was gone Before we found ourselves
8.
Nothing here to Prove you ever happened Nothing left to show For all the bloodshed And the aftermath You’d think I’d be so guilty You’re in a box and buried in the basement Buried in the basement floor
9.
A million circles ’round the same old thing Did you hear me when I told you It’s not a chase, it’s a stand-off?
10.
These walls have wounds, too It’s not just me and you We’ll wash away soon The sun will fade us, too Could have kept you If I’d wanted to
11.
Moments 03:53
Here I go again Here we go again We will never know What we could have known No matter where this takes me No matter what this takes of me I can see the end I can’t change the end But I understand I will understand No matter where this takes me No matter what this takes of me It’s better than missing these moments with you
12.
I spoke too soon I never talked to you No matter what I said Or what I tried to do No time left to spend No sinking in the sand No waiting for some sign Or waving of your hands You may not have seen Hidden traps beneath Words and fallen leaves And all the space between Stop, I get it: it wasn’t obvious So nevermind
