City Nights
03:21
|
|||
lyin in my bed
a scream enters my head
outside my window
someone i don't know
the boy across the street
that i may never meet
keeps me from dreamin
oh what's the meaning?
i fall asleep to the sound of broken city nights
the dreams that i remember
always seem to end up
haunting better days
a concrete shade of gray
i fall asleep to the sound of broken city nights

Long Arms
02:43
|
|||
on the long walk home
surrounded by the rain
makin morse
tappin 'no' on my brain
a message mixed up at the window:
"carry on"
intended to move me to the next one
but i mistook it to mean
"keep trying, don't change a thing"
now i'm here reachin for the same one
it's something long arms can't obtain

Dunedin Dark
03:52
|
|||
the streetlight started it all
needed a beacon to get through the fog
it blinked two times then abandoned the wall
can't chase the shadows of ghosts, so i gave up and wandered alone
i let you go
what light could break through this wall?
let cracks dissolve into canyons and light flood the valley below?
i'll let you know
i met midnight alone
drowned in dunedin dark
i was searching for a spark
on my way down i went looking for you
turned upside down, i couldn't find a clue
now tell me, what am i supposed to do?
"break through the walls that are surrounding you"
now i'm upside down, and you aren't true

Strangers
03:24
|
|||
strangers all around
they walk slow
they make no sound
strangers all around
they live low
their fears unfound
i hope they're sleepin sound
after the sun goes down
on lonely streets
away from the crowds
windows trace stories skewed
vignettes believed
of loved living rooms
the way light flickers 'round
ceiling fans
leaves lingering doubt
behind the curtains drawn
on friday nights
the strangers are gone
strangers all around

Starry Eyed
03:12
|
|||
that time when i first saw you
i didn't think that much at all
just another soul to talk to
i didn't think i'd feel the fall
now i see the wall
i sat there starry eyed for your call
i said my goodbyes to the sun

Everybody Hurts Video
02:54
|
|||
dead bones on the side of the road
driving clogged highways by rote
everybody hurts video on repeat in my head
surrounded by a thousand souls
somehow i still feel alone
everybody hurts video on repeat in my head
clouds shift to dollar signs in the sky
can't escape the bottom line
ten hours gone from my life
when an hour's hard to find
they look like dollar signs
in the evening sky
it's melding into my mind
i can't afford the time
everybody hurts video in my mind

Awkward Dancer
03:05
|
|||
he moves with the sureness of a flame
wavering when the wind blows the other way
in his mind, seven changes have already been made
before he struggles to start the day
the awkward dancer moves
stop

Trem Three
02:02
|
|||
i thought you knew
forgot to tell you
oh what's the use
who wants to know
when the leaves start to go
that's when i'll start the show

Little Anthony
01:58
|
|||
little anthony "out of my head" i know to be true
personality locked in lead, i just want to know you
but i can't even find the words inside to talk to you
and i don't know why my being shy should keep us from being two
but i don't know what to do
so i hide inside the words of this song
little anthony "out of my head"

Tightrope
02:47
|
|||
bring forth your silhouette
before the wind takes it
tight-rope walkin pirouette
until the earth's shakin
your head is on fire
a magnificent light
give me the dark, barren night
you're not something that i'd forget
bring me the dark

Remains
03:22
|
|||
darlin' i spoke too soon
startled, i drove you away
"sorry you're prone to play the fool"
those weren't the words i'd hoped you'd say
the remains
of the day
waste away
darlin' i thought you knew
that time is the fool's place to play
the remains
of the day
waste away
sing it softly to the stars' sway
