1000 Days
Eyes, they burn from stinging travel
And missing you is hard to handle
Stayed away a thousand days
And things have changed like a decade
Made the most of all my days
And still I’m on the wrong page
Now I’m home and feeling more alone
It’s in your tone, so maybe I should go
Why’d it turn from sweet to bitter
And now no cure can make it better
Stayed away a thousand days
And things have changed like a decade
Made the most of all my days
And still I’m on the wrong page
Now I’m home and feeling more alone
It’s in your tone, so maybe I should go
Speeding faster towards disaster
This house is cancer, I won’t last here
Years go by and still no answers
No answers
Now no cure can make it better
Stayed away a thousand days
And things have changed like a decade
Made the most of all my days
And still I’m on the wrong page
Now I’m home, speeding faster towards disaster
It’s in your tone, years go by and still no answers
Still no answers
Drifting Apart
We’ll take a trip for two
Around the world
We’ll have a bird’s eye view
Of every single nation
I could be what you wanted
I could be what you needed
We’re drifting apart like people do
We’re drifting apart ’cause we all do
And skies seem blue
Time has two separate hands
And I wonder where we stand
We’re drifting apart like people do
We’re drifting apart ’cause we all do
I’ll gravitate toward
The only girl
So with the wind we blew
And now we’re on a mission
I could be what you wanted
I could be what you needed
We’re drifting apart like people do
We’re drifting apart ’cause we all do
And skies seem blue
Time has two separate hands
And I wonder where we stand
We’re drifting apart like people do
We’re drifting apart ’cause we all do
Time has two separate hands
And I wonder where we stand
We’re drifting apart like people do
We’re drifting apart like people do
We’re drifting apart like people do
We’re drifting apart ’cause we all do
Quiet
I’ll be the bumblebee behind you, baby
I’ll tear up everything inside you
And it stings, and it stings
Sun shines through your openings
I’ll tear up everything inside you
Hold up don’t say
What I think you’re gonna say
Take your time
‘Cause I can wait
It’s all on you
And I’m not sane
And if you seen my girl could you bring her to me
She don’t like life with a rock and roll singer
But we’ll spend the rest of our lives in happiness
I’ll wrap this ring around her finger
Hold up don’t say
What I think you’re gonna say
Take your time
‘Cause I can wait
It’s all on you
And I’m not sane
You won’t see what you mean to me
And you don’t feel that you’re everything
For now I’ll live with you
Quiet, quiet
You won’t see what you mean to me
And you don’t feel that you’re everything
You can take all the time you need
I hold my breath but I have to breathe
Hold up don’t say, hold up don’t say
Hold up don’t say
What I think you’re gonna say
Take your time
‘Cause I can wait
It’s all on you
And I’m not sane
You won’t see what you mean to me
And you don’t feel that you’re everything
For now I’ll live with you
Quiet, quiet
Glow
I never thought that you’d find out I did it
I was so scared that you’d leave so I hid it
I know we said that we’d always be honest
So now I went out and messed up our nest
It finally seems like we turned into strangers
It’s gotten so bad there’s just no more anger
So now it seems like we can’t get no further
I can’t believe I’ll be bright for another
I’ll be the switch she turns on
She’ll be mine too, I’ll get off
I’ll be the fuse that she blows
And even with the lights out, we’ll glow
So where’s the sun
It’s shone no love on your face
Under the moon
And with a girl that’s in your place
And even Edison has no idea
Of all the blackouts I’ve caused you and me
I’ll be the switch she turns on
She’ll be mine, too, I’ll get off
I’ll be the fuse that she blows
And even with the lights out, we’ll glow
I’ll be the switch she turns on
She’ll be mine, too, I’ll get off
I’ll be the fuse that she blows
And even with the lights out, we’ll glow
We’ll glow, we’ll glow, we’ll glow!
I’ll be the switch she turns on
She’ll be mine, too, I’ll get off
I’ll be the, I’ll be the fuse she blows
And even with the lights out, we’ll glow
I’ll be the switch she turns on
She’ll be mine, too, I’ll get off
I’ll be the fuse that she blows
And even with the lights out, we’ll glow
I’ll be the switch she turns on
She’ll be mine, too, I’ll get off
I’ll be the fuse that she blows
And even with the lights out, we’ll glow
I’ll be the, I’ll be the fuse
I’ll be the, I’ll be the fuse
These Days
Making all these waves and
I wonder where the days went
I sit and think of you
I hope the feeling’s mutual
I’m seeing all you gave and
It somehow don’t seem even close to what I do
To break into
Seems natural
These days are great
There’s work to do
Would you like to work with me
I’d love to work you
These days are great
And so are You
I think it’s something positive and negative to
Playing all these games and
I wonder who’s to blame it
I sit and think it’s you
I’m sure the feeling’s mutual
We’re growing cold
It’s getting old
We should have known it’s over
These days are great
There’s work to do
Would you like to work with me
I’d love to work you
These days are great
And so are You
I think it’s something positive and negative to
We’ll be a real team
We’ll be a real team!
These days are great
There’s work to do
Would you like to work with me
I’d love to work you
These days are great
And so are You
I think it’s something positive and negative to
These days are great
There’s work to do
Would you like to work with me
I’d love to work you
These days are great
And so are You
I told you…
Sarah Wynn
Remember when we were young
We’d smoke cigarettes behind the store
Pimpin’ beers for fun, back then I loved you
Making you almost cry
Under Louisiana sky
Never thought you’d fly, we all miss you
What the hell were you thinking of?
I can’t help you now, Sarah
Why the hell were you shooting up?
Now you’re coming down, Sarah
I know it’s been sometime
But now you’re back, I’ll try to help
It seems like wasted time
Cause only you can help yourself
A calm and collected mind
I talked to your parents yesterday
It seems they’re doin’ fine
They’re worried about you
What the hell were you thinking of?
I can’t help you now, Sarah
Why the hell were you shooting up?
Now you’re coming down, Sarah
Habits are hard to break
I don’t know how much I can take from you
I guess that I’ll never relate
I really don’t know what to make of you,
Make of you, make of you, make of you…
We’re worried about you!
What the hell were you thinking of?
I can’t help you now, Sarah
Why the hell were you shooting up?
Now you’re coming down, Sarah
What the hell were you thinking?
What the hell were you thinking? (Sarah)
Never Meant
I threw a rock at window
I missed and hit the light
And now it’s hard to see you
Without illuminate
I punched a knock on your door
Not to cause a fight
And now I’d pay to see you
Just for one more night
Never meant to do you wrong
Never meant to cause you harm
Find a heart to break in
Maybe yours tonight
Throw a Molotov in
Just to make it bright
Here’s to every cocktail
That we drank tonight
Here’s to making up and
Cheers to one more fight
Never meant to do you wrong
Never meant to cause you harm
Never meant to do you wrong
Never meant to cause you harm
(I threw a rock at window)
Never meant, never meant
Never meant to do you wrong
Never meant, never meant
Never meant to do you wrong
Never meant, never meant
Never meant to do you wrong
Never meant to do you wrong…
Goodbye
All that you do is steps above
Anything else we could dream of
My tabloid girl, you miracle
God’s gift to Earth, but cynical
Wannabe’s gather around you
Walking on eggshells behind you
Spit on your face, I’d love to
If only I didn’t love you
And then your friends will say
That you look good today
Goodbye, goodbye
And then to your dismay
You turned your head one day
Goodbye, goodbye
Humbleness taught me to share the love
But you never caught that drift, did ya?
My little girl, you see the world
A dismal place where you’re the thrill
My sweet, you certain state of grace
Larger than life to all human race
If I could just pull back your reins
Make ’em tight
My sweet, there’s nothing larger than life
I hear my conscience say
That you look good today
Goodbye, goodbye
And then to disbelief
You turned your pretty cheek
Goodbye, goodbye
You never caught that drift, did ya?
You never caught that drift, did ya!?
And then your friends will say
That you look good today
And in your special way
You knew before they told ya
And then with no delay
You turned your head one day
Goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye…
Tia Lupé
She traps a velvet moth between her harmless hands
Then builds an atrium to perch on her nightstand
She lies to watch her fly
Attracted toward the light
She’s all mine
It’s now another day in search for anything
She’ll take advantage of any human being
She loves to watch me fly
Attracted toward the light
She’s all mine
If she’d only leave the light on
She breathes under my velvet wings
If she only left the light on
She brings all that she used to be
If she only left the light on
I swear it’s hard to tell if I’m the only one
I found a photograph next to the atrium
It’s faded black and white
He’s holding her so tight
She’s all mine
If she’d only leave the light on
She breathes under my velvet wings
If she only left the light on
She brings all that she used to be
If she only left the light on
All the powder on your wings
Makes me feel I’m everything
And every single evening
I love you with the way I sing
All the powder on your wings
Makes me feel I’m everything
And every single evening
I love you with the way I sing
I sing… (If she only left the light on)
A Paga La Luz (If she only left the light on)
Rubber Mallet
Cable cars run through my mind
I think up north on valentine
Maybe we drink to old friends
You should go; she’s on my mind again
I lost my only enemy
So I reminisce thoughts try and be true
Takes me back…
When I had to choose and I don’t ever lose
Someone’s making me love and I don’t think it’s you
Sleep, and I don’t ever dream
Someone caught me in lie, and I don’t ever dream
Indecision breaks my vision and I don’t give a damn
Indecision breaks my vision and I don’t give a damn
Reminisce thoughts try and be true
Played you out was not good
I reminisce thoughts try and be true
Then I played you out…
Like a Rubix Cube and I don’t ever lose
Someone’s making me love and I don’t think it’s you
Free from all disease now I’m clean
You just punched a hole and it won’t seem to bleed
Only, only two of us, only the two of us
Only, only two of us, only the two of us
Only, only two of us, only the two of us…
When I had to choose and I don’t ever lose
Someone’s making me love and I don’t think it’s you
Free from all disease now I’m clean
You just punched a hole and it won’t seem to bleed
Indecision breaks my vision
(And it won’t seem to bleed)
So I reminisce thoughts try and be true
Indecision breaks my vision
(And it won’t seem to bleed)
So I reminisce thoughts try and be true
S.S. Recognize
And back to the ebb came, in fact and full of rain
And two the flow went, I think the vessel bent
Now time is precious, rocky waves we’re nauseous
I think everything is wet, from us the ocean will be fed
What made us try to have done what we do, let’s dream of dry
To not tremble in the night
Full sky, fuel shy…
Don’t you recognize, I’ll rock the boat again
I’m getting scurvy bad
Don’t you recognize, I’ll rock the boat again
I’m getting scurvy bad
Now it’s been days, and the sun won’t show her face
She will blame mistakes on me, now the cold becomes obscene
Will you just bend, and think of saving my life again
This ship has made me cry, I think the next time we should fly
Full sky, fuel shy…
Don’t you recognize, I’ll rock the boat again
I’m getting scurvy bad
We’re bringing up all the sharks cause all the whales have gone Mas Surr
You fail to recognize all the things that we do
Check yourself, the boat just about to sink
You’re gonna choke on the salt if you try to drink…
We’re bringing up all the sharks cause the whales have gone Mas Surr
You fail to recognize all the things we do
Check yourself the boat just about to sink,
‘Cause we don’t need You bitch, you think you are the missed link
All the prism in the world couldn’t make hue
All the rescue that I’ve seen don’t bring you
Stand up, sit back or walk the plank, kiss the deck and recall
All the prism in the world couldn’t make hue
All the rescue that I’ve seen don’t bring you
Stand up, sit back or walk the plank, kiss the deck and recall
All the prism in the world couldn’t make hue…
All the prism in the world couldn’t make hue…
All the prism in the world couldn’t make…
Jump, jump, jump!
Sit back and walk the plank!
Hit the deck and recall all the used to take!
Time to keep off the plank!
Kiss the deck and recall!
Don’t you recognize, I’ll rock the boat again
I’m getting scurvy bad
Don’t you recognize, I’ll rock the boat again
I’m getting scurvy bad
Don’t you,
Don’t you,
Don’t you,
Don’t you.
Hope
Hope is the thing I’m feeling today
Walking a mile out of the way
I still might make it though
Turn on your street and see a car
Finding our home a house of pain
See in an instant things can change
And never feel the same
Turn on your street and see a car
One where I thought
Mine should be parked
If that’s what you demand
Then that’s what I’ll deliver
If that’s what you demand
Then that’s just what I’ll give you
Trenches dug out the side of the road
Remember the smell of earth in piles
And there was nothing else to do
There was nothing left to do
But walk for miles
So I walked for miles
If that’s what you demand
Then that’s what I’ll deliver
If that’s what you demand
Then that’s just what I’ll give you
Turn on your street and see a car
Someone I thought was a friend to me
Has ripped a hole in my life
Someone I thought was a friend to me
Has gone and married my wife
If that’s what you demand
Then that’s what I’ll deliver
If that’s what you demand
Then that’s just what I’ll give you
If that’s your master plan
Then I wish you two the best
Together
If that’s what you demand, now
Then that’s just what I’ll give you
Words (UK bonus track)
I was so happy now you’re gone
Things were easy now you’re gone
The way that we used to
Now you’re gone
My mind I’ll be losing
Now that it seems you’ll soon be leaving
And I can’t retrieve you
And I can’t believe
Now that you’re gone I’m barely breathing
Words to believe
We’re still bleeding
We were a-surfing for so long
All these years wasted
Way too long
And things aren’t what they’re used to
We belong
Now times are confusing
Now that it seems you’ll soon be leaving
And I can’t retrieve you
And I can’t believe
Now that you’re gone I’m barely breathing
Words to believe
We’re still bleeding
Now that you’re gone
I spend my evenings
Broken and fighting
Smoking and drinking
Now that it seems you’ll soon be leaving
And I can’t retrieve you
And I can’t believe
Now that you’re gone I’m barely breathing
Words to believe
We’re still bleeding
Spain In The Neck (b-side)
No more tripping down the hall
It seems my back just hit a wall
At times I’m full of spite
But something strong inside
Says nothing’s wrong, you’re doing fine, doing fine
Work through it and get back to it
Work through it now
It took a real situation to make me feel alive
Work through it now
All this running just to fall
Seems my run has slowed to a crawl
It feels like nothing’s right
But something screams inside
It won’t be long you’re doing fine, doing fine
Work through it and get back to it
Work through it now
It took a real situation to make me feel alive
Work through it now
Staring out the window for you
Helps to pass the time
Taking all the light that shines through
Hold it in my mind, I’m doing fine
Work through it and get back to it
Work through it now
It took a real situation to make me feel alive
Work through it now
