The Sound

I'm a sucker
for an aching heart
Gotta suffer
for the sake of art
And I want you
'Cuz you make it hard
I want you
'Cuz you make it hard
It's a pattern
I've always found
I get messed up,
I write it down
I like the hurt
'Cuz I like the sound
I like the sound
I am taken
with the bitter end
And the breaking,
the way we mend
And I want you,
I just can't pretend
I want you,
we could just pretend
This spiral
I'm headed around
won't mess me up,
won't get me down
And I like the hurt
cause I like the sound
I like the sound
I like the sound
I like the sound

Who We Are
03:34

I've been feeling wrong
But I'm still holding on
Darling, I know, I know,
I know it's careless
Whisper in my ear
The words I wanna hear
Darling, I know, I know,
I know you want this
Let's sneak out into the backyard
Let's get lost, it can't be too hard
Take my hand, I'll take you so far
Let's go find out who we are
Who we are
I've been losing sleep
And the company I keep
is telling me
I just got to let this one die
But I know they don't see
The way you look at me
Out of the corner of
your wandering eye
Let's sneak out into the backyard
Let's get lost, it can't be too hard
Take my hand, I'll take you so far
Let's go find out who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
If you know
Then say so
Tell me that you're ready
And we'll let it go
Take my hand
We'll run so far
Let's go find out
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are

Counting Down
03:46
|
|||
Counting down the days for weeks
Losing faith and losing sleep
Giving up a part of me for you
Leaving never felt so right
Take a breath and shut my eyes
Finally I realize it's true
I know what I have to do
I know someday
I'll be okay
And I won't need you like I do
And in the daylight
I'll be alright
And I won't need to lean on you
'Cause I did what I had to do
Break my back to hold you up
Every day still not enough
Try and try and just get nothing new
Hang my head down to the floor
I stay quiet, you ignore
Take and take and take some more for you
I know what I have to do
I know someday
I'll be okay
And I won't need you like I do
And in the daylight
I'll be alright
And I won't need to lean on you
'Cause I did what I had to do
I know someday
I'll be okay
And I won't need you like I do
And in the daylight
I'll be alright
And I won't need to lean on you
Yeah, I was broken, now I'm new
'Cause I did what I had to do

Golden Coast

Maybe it's okay to want this
Maybe it's okay to never know
Maybe it's time to be honest
Maybe it's okay to just let go
Just let go, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Just let go, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maybe it's okay to hate this
Or maybe it's okay to hold it close
Maybe the silence will save it
Maybe it's okay to just let go
Just let go, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Just let go, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
I second guess
Forgot my name so long ago
I'm headed West
I'll find it on that golden coast
My heavy head
Can't handle much more of this cold
I'm headed West
I'm headed home
Maybe it's fine to forget this
Maybe it's alright to take it slow
Maybe I'll live to regret this
Oh, no, no
Maybe it's okay to just let go
Just let go, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Just let go, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
I second guess
Forgot my name so long ago
I'm headed West
I'll find it on that golden coast
My heavy head
Can't handle much more of this cold
I'm headed West
I'm headed home
I'm headed home,
headed home
I'm headed home,
headed home

Back To Me
03:56
|

Another day goes by
and I'm wondering what went wrong
Another day inside
double-checking that you're still gone
And then the sun goes down at night,
and you're still on my mind
And now I'm crying in the car
to a Top 40 pop song
And it goes
"My baby's coming back to me!
My baby's coming back to me!
My baby's coming back to me!
Coming back to me!
Coming back to me!
Coming back to me!"
Another year goes by
and I never really let it show
You know the more I try,
the less I want to let you go
And then the crowd starts counting down,
and you're still not around
And now I'm crying at the party
to whatever's on the radio
Cause it goes
"My baby's coming back to me!
My baby's coming back to me!
My baby's coming back to me!
Coming back to me!
Coming back to me!
Coming back to me!"
Another damp dark room
and I'm spilling my guts right out
About a love I knew
that I'm learning to live without
If I could just start seeing straight,
I would forget you every day
But I'm banging my guitar
cause I swear I'll never know how
And I sing...
"My baby's coming back to me!
My baby's coming back to me!
My baby's coming back to me!
Coming back to me!
Coming back to me!
Coming back to me!"

Good Way
03:39
|
|||
I could stick around for a minute more
Take a little time walking out that door
But I know it wouldn't be alright
Every other day that I let it slide
Is just another reason that my tongue is tied
Cause I know I can't make it right
There's never a good way
To say goodbye
There's never a right way
To change your mind
There's never a good way,
Never a good time
Never a good way
To say, to say goodbye
So just say goodbye
I could be the hero, give it one more shot
Tell you that I'm comin' when I know I'm not
So it goes, I'll never be alright
We could take a second, we could give it time
We could just pretend there's nothing on my mind
But I know it wouldn't make it right
There's never a good way
To say goodbye
There's never a right way
To change your mind
There's never a good way,
Never a good time
Never a good way
To say, to say goodbye
So just say goodbye
A mouth full of bullets I just can't bite
I'm still pulling at my own knife
I should know better but I'm up all night again
I could stick around for a minute more
Take a little time walking out that door
But I know it wouldn't be alright
There's never a good way,
Never a good time
There's never a good way,
Never a good time
There's never a good way,
Never a good time
Never a good way
To say, to say goodbye
So just say goodbye

Out Of This Alive
03:37
|

It's just a notch, a battle scar
It's just a crush, a broken heart
So walk it off, it's all for fun
Tough it out, bite your tongue
Say "I will make it out of this alive
I will make it out of this alive"
It's all we hear, it's all we say
The good advice, it's all the same
The world won't end, the sky won't burn
Stand up straight and live and learn
Say "I will make it out of this alive
I will make it out of this alive"

Over You
02:45
|
|||
I wrote it out and I put it to rest
A couple years and I am balanced at best
But I see your pictures on the Internet
And I hate to admit that I'm just such a mess
I kept a diary, a way to get by
I bought a Telecaster, learned how to lie
But the shortest sentences are all I can write
And I hate to admit that I'm outta my mind
I, I can't get by
I don't know why
But out of the blue
I'm kind of a wreck over you
They say it takes a lot of terrible days
Listen to records, they can ease that pain
I took the steps and I erased your name
And I hate to admit you still drive me insane
I, I can't get by
I don't know why
But out of the blue
I'm kind of a wreck over you
Stare, stare, stare at your name on a screen
I always wonder if you're thinking of me
Stare, stare, stare at your name on a screen
I always wonder if you know I'm a wreck
I, I can't get by
I don't know why
But out of the blue
I'm kind of a wreck over you
Now there's a special place inside of my heart
For all the quiet things you said in the dark
I'm always trying to forget that part
And I hate to admit that I still got the marks

Motorbike
03:13
|

Ever since December I've been down
Nervous when I see you come around
All this talk of you and me as friends
But I know you, you'll just break my heart again
I got a plan to get you outta my head
I wanna ride my motorbike
I wanna ride my motorbike
All summer long,
All summer long
I wanna ride my motorbike
I wanna ride my motorbike
All summer long,
All summer long
I could sit here staring at my hands
I could walk the streets just kicking cans
Seven million hours in my day
Time goes so slow since you went away
I got a plan to get you out of my head
I wanna ride my motorbike
I wanna ride my motorbike
All summer long,
All summer long
I wanna ride my motorbike
I wanna ride my motorbike
All summer long,
All summer long

New Love
03:13
|

I heard you fell in love again
For the first time
And I heard you can't remember when
It felt so right
And you say you can't believe
You found it finally
And you whisper soft and sweet
The same old way you
Whispered it to me
I heard the stars shine brighter now
Than they used to
And I heard the pieces fit so well
Like they're supposed to
And you say you can't deny
The planets all aligned
And you're holding all you need
The same old way you
Held on tight to me
There's no love
Like new love
You're moving on
And all I want is you, love
There's no love
Like new love
You're moving on
And all I want is you, love

The Same
03:53
|

Is anybody never really over anyone?
Is anybody lying when they say they're having fun?
Does anybody feel like checking out and going home?
I can't be alone
Does anybody feel like kissing strangers when they're sad?
Does anybody wonder how it ever got this bad?
Does anybody wish that they could change the way they are?
It can't be that hard
I'm not lonely like I used to be
I get older and I notice things
We all got feelings that we can't explain
We're all a little bit the same
Is anybody sleeping? Is it just me wide awake?
Is anybody dreaming of the changes they would make?
Has anybody felt like they can't take it on their own?
I can't be alone
I'm not waiting like I used to be
I get older and I notice things
We all got feelings that we can't explain
We're all a little bit the same
When it feels like a long shot
We've been there too
When it feels like you're all talk
We felt like you
Cause we all got feelings that we can't explain
Yeah, yeah, we're all a little bit the same
A little bit the same
A little bit the same
A little bit the same
A little bit the same
