If I Linger

If I linger a little longer
Is it really that big of a deal?
‘Cause I don’t think I’m gonna heal
From you
From you
I have a letter from my birthday
I didn’t read it til Christmas Eve
And I don’t recall if it’s from you or me
Every evening I play the same scene inside my brain
I scream your name til you turn around
I always I forgot what to say
So give me light, give me darkness
Give me warmth, and give me cold
Give me hope and give me comfort
And everything else that comes and goes
Lately I’ve been living in no-man’s land
And I promised you I’d be back soon, but I’m not
So if I linger a little longer
Would you promise not to leave?
It’s been so long and I just want to see you
So give me light, give me darkness
Give me warmth, and give me cold
Give me hope and give me comfort
And everything else that comes and goes
And I know I haven’t been who I said I’d be
am I’m growing closer?
And I know I haven’t been who I said I’d be
am I’m growing closer?
And I know I haven’t been who I said I’d be
am I’m growing closer?
And I know I haven’t been who I said I’d be
Am I’m growing closer?
So give me light, give me darkness
Give me warmth, and give me cold
Give me hope and give me comfort
And everything else that comes and goes
Give me light, give me darkness
Give me warmth, and give me cold
Give me hope and give me comfort
And everything else that comes and goes

Not Alone

So she might've ran into a situation.
Blue eyes and a heart of gold.
She finds solace in her dreams and aspirations.
Just a dreamer getting old.
Oh, taking the long way home.
But there's just one other thing
You should know
When you let go
So he might've fell into a competition.
He watches as the night unfolds.
Well he's got a grip on his inhibitions.
Just a dreamer getting old.
Oh, taking the long way home.
But there's just one other thing
You should know
When you let go
Oh, taking the long way home.
But there's just one other thing
You should know
When you let go
You let go

Sober
04:05
|

I don’t feel at home
Hell, I don’t feel anything at all
Since you
Came back from that party lookin’ shook
Was it your first and last time?
I couldn’t know
I wasn’t really banking on a girl I couldn’t trust
I was looking forward to a love
That didn’t fuck with my head
It doesn’t quite work if we are sober
But we’re not sober right now
It doesn’t quite work if we are sober
But we’re not sober right now
Maybe I’ve been trying too damn hard
Not to let it bother me
a spitting competition
With my own insecurities
And I don’t think
We’re ever gonna win if you’re playing
For the other team
It doesn’t quite work if we are sober
But we’re not sober right now
It doesn’t quite work if we are sober
But we’re not sober right now
You find me heaving over porcelain
My one and only holy confessional
This doesn’t quite work when we are sober
But we’re not sober right now
This doesn’t quite work when we are sober
But we’re not sober right now
Intoxicated, I wanted to be honest with you
Intoxicated, I wasn’t really thinking of you
Intoxicated, I wanted to be honest with you
Intoxicated, I wasn’t really thinking of you
Intoxicated, I wanted to be honest with you
Intoxicated, I wasn’t really thinking of you
You find me heaving over porcelain
My one and only holy confessional
It doesn’t quite work if we are sober
But we’re not sober right now
It doesn’t quite work if we are sober
But we’re not sober right nowIt doesn’t quite work if we are sober
But we’re not sober right now
I was looking forward to a love
That didn’t fuck with my head

Black and White
03:15

Suits you well being black and white,
You think you’re, you think you’re wise.
Fought like hell, but now your tongue is tied.
I see it, behind your eyes.
No need to wait till I'm gone.
Maybe you’ll get what you want
When the truth gets told, you've lost your way.
But I won't make you stay.
No need to wait till I'm gone.
You're gonna get what you want.
When the truth gets told, your day will come.
But I won't be here when your day is done.

Hawthorne
05:02
|

These are the days I hold most dearly
They fit inside the palm of my hand
These are the words that almost kill me
And if they do, I hope you understand
Painted my own face on my mirror
Yet I still see you shining through
I shoved my demons in the attic
We still hang out, we’re still cool
I wore
The Black Veil of Hawthorne
Count the days I’m counting the same
reclaim my family name
I wore
The Black Veil of Hawthorne
Save some face for a rainy day
Or a clouded mind
Yeah, I’m doing just fine
I figured it out
It’s gonna a little time for me to reroute
So until then, I’ll be hiding inside my head
Wish I had thought of that back then
I wore
The Black Veil of Hawthorne
Count the days I’m counting the same
reclaim my family name
I wore
The Black Veil of Hawthorne
Save some face for a rainy day
Or a clouded mind
Yeah, I’m doing just fine

Seasons

Seasons, roll on by.
As I ease up to ease my troubled mind.
No one, and no pride.
Will eat me up, keep my mind occupied.
But I can't take this,
Friends and fake bliss,
Send me on my way.
Gone now, as you remain.
To play the waiting game and wallow in your own way.
Wrong now, to face the day.
When there's no one left, I guess I'll be on my way.
But I can't take this friends and fake bliss, send me on my way.
Time is wasting,
I can taste it,
Closer every day.

Gasoline
04:23

Call me lonely
Call me the only one you need
Though you know it isn't true
You find me coldly
Lying through my teeth
I'm not lion
And you're not sheep
You know I've poured
Gasoline on myself
And now you light a spark
In my heart
You know I've poured
Gasoline on myself
And now you light a spark
But it's gone dark
Sometimes I just need a friend
To drag on through the dirt again
And I won't make amends
If I know how it ends
You listen to all the taps the leak
You claim that all your hills are peaks
Stepping on all the boards that creak
Is this why you're too afraid to speak?
You know I've poured
Gasoline on myself
And now you light a spark
In my heart
You know I've poured
Gasoline on myself
And now you light a spark
But it's gone dark
And now it's all gone
You've wasted all your time on
Fixing all the problems you made
They don't go away
And now you're all mine
Canary in a coal mine
Wondering why your hands are red
And it won't wash away

As I Lie
03:20
|

As I Lie awake,
I read up on you.
I know it's late,
But I can't lose,
Without you.
When lies are all I hear,
I don't dare,
Shed a tear,
To stay amused,
Just for you.
End the pain
Cause you can't see
Another way
It's nothing new.

Tides
crash the shore
You can’t ignore
All these things
They seem to be
inevitable
You are hours out
Took an alternate route
I have been here
For a while
But I,
I’ll wait for you
Vivian,
Your love is all I want
if we don’t get what we want
Then we settle for what we’ve got
Vivian,
Your love is all I want
we fuck everything up
Then we pack our shit and run
You and I
Are redefining
So I’ll give all my words to you
You and I
Were paralyzing
So I’ll give all my love to you
And I’m convinced water
Flows for you
And I’m convinced flowers
Grow towards you
And when the lights turn on,
All your friends are gone
And the Holy Ghost was bought and sold
And you’ve got nothing to call your own
When you feel your shoulders growing colder
fuck everything up
we just pack our shit and run
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Vivian,
Your love is all I want
if we don’t get what we want
Then we settle for what we’ve got

January

Stand tall,
Head held highly.
Your heart,
Beats inside me.
But I
Know in
Due time
You'll win
Planted firmly on the ground,
January comes to bring me down, safe and sound.
Do you reap just what you sow?
Have the feeling that we're Not Alone? It's all I know.
But I
Know in
Due time
You'll win
But I
Know in
Due time
You'll win
You'll win
"You only have one spark of madness. You mustn't waste it."
