If It Happens:All my life I'm livin' and I'm givin' and I'm givin'. Sometimes I think the reasons for living are just to die. It's so hard to be paitent. If it happens, it happens. I can't enjoy the present 'cause I think about the future. And even when the future's comin' to me I'm lookin' ahead. It's so hard to be patient now. If it happens, it happens. (Bite the bullet, pull the trigger.) If It happens, It happens. (Everything is so much bigger.) When it happens, it happens. Sometimes I feel like I just can't get anyone to listen. And If nobody's listening, there's no reason to be alive. It's so hard to be pateint now. If it happens, it happens. (Bite the bullet, pull the trigger.) If It happens, It happens. (Everything is so much bigger.) When it happens, it happens.
All That I Believe:Hayden says she sick and tired of cleanin' up the nation. She takes it out on all her friends and blames it on frustration. She pauses for a moment, while the mirror reflects her frown. She tells herself she's pretty when there's no one else around. She goes down and I'm spinning. She's all that I believe. She has found a new begining. She's all that I believe. Hayden says she's taking care of business on her end, so I tell her not to worry and we will still be friends. I tell her I'll still pick her up if she should fall behind. Hayden stops and looks at me as if I've lost my mind. We go down, and I'm spinning. She's all that I believe. She's turned around from the begining. She's all that I believe. Hayden says it's wonderful the things I say and do. Like two pieces of a puzzle but she always comes unglued. She take's a drink and swears at me and I just walk away. And it kills me 'cause I know she wont remember the next day. We go down, I'm spinning She's all that I believe. We have found a new beginging. She's all that I believe. She's all that I believe...She's all that I believe...
The Story Goes On:The winds out on the highway carry other every man's tune. If you're going our way we'll see you there soon. The wings of an angel traded for wheels. Words aren't important if you know how it feels. Soon the sun will be gone. Tie another one on. Frustrated and broken but lingering on. Praying this desire will never be gone. The warmth of a stranger can be found in his ear. The worst of your dangers is found in your fear. So drink another, coin a phrase. We'll be home one of these days. And you know the story goes on. You know the story goes on. Can't have a memory, if you've never been gone. You know the story goes on. It's a story of patience and faith 'til the end. No one's gonna break down, but we've all got to bend. Like Call and Agustus when the dove is alone. We continue with a passion, destination unkown. So pull up a chair and open your mind. We'll be around for a long long time. And you know the story goes on. You know the story goes on. Can't have a memory if you've never been gone. You know the story goes on. Take it all night. Don't let 'em get the best of you now. Don't put up a fight. The groove out on the highway is as long as it seems. From one joint to another as you follow your dreams. Through fables anon without a moral to lend. 'Cause you can't have a moral if the story won't end. And you know the story goes on. You know the story goes on. Can't have a memory if you've never been gone. You know the story goes on. Can't have a memory if you've never been gone. You know the story goes on.
City By A River:If I should ever wonder. Just to try and get a taste. Take the next train going somewhere. Far away from this place. Down roads already traveled. Thinkin' I might get away. Would you remind me? Would you remind me? Remind me! There's a city by a river. It's as far as I wanna go. Take your dreams down to the river. Drop 'em in and watch 'em flow. I dreamt the sun was hiding. When the dawn came up today. You walked the road beside me. Every step along my way. And if I should wake tomorrow. To a sky that's dull and grey. Would you remind me that you're behind me? Remind me! There's a city by a river. It's as far as I wanna go. Take your dreams out to the river. Drop 'em in and watch 'em flow. Drop 'em in and watch 'em flow. Little sister, up and gone. She cried herself a little river. All our dreams, will float downstream. And in the ocean come together. There's a dream that's gone forever. Held under by the falls. Was it brilliant, worthy vision? Or just a though no one recalls? Would you remind me that it's inside me? Remind me! There's a city by a river. It's as far as I wanna go. Take your dreams out to the river. Drop 'em in and watch 'em flow. Drop 'em in and watch 'em flow. Drop 'em in and watch 'em flow.
Last Light:Distant thoughts inside my head. Headlines that I've casually read. Nothing good can be spoonfed it's obvious. I'm taking off into thin air. If I never land I don't care. As long as I am happy there, I'm there to stay. And the shadows are growing longer with the evening. I can hear a melody from far away. Drums are pounding, giutars slowly grieving. As the sun sheds it's last light upon the day. Melodies mysterious. The music is to serious. Chalk it up to experience and wander on. Seasons change but don't inspire the words that work but aren't for hire. They're hanging off the thining wire that is my brain. And the shadows are growing longer with the evening. I can hear a melody from far away. Drums are pounding, guitars slowly grieving. As the sun sheds it's last light upon the day. I feel it 'til I strike a note that's sure to set my head afloat with remedies, anecdotes I'm needing. As I head through space unknown, I'll take my first few steps alone. And hope that I'm not plain out prone and broken. And the shadows are growing stronger with the evening. I can hear a melody from far away. Drums are beating, guitars slowly grieving. As the sun sheds it's last light upon the day.
Together In Our Minds: Tomorrow. Tomorrow doesn't hurt like we thought it would. I don't think I would cry even if I could. Even though my heart might take a beating, I wanna hear the words you keep repeating...'til there's nothing at all. I will always wipe your tears for you. Tell you that there's nothing that you can't do. It's just you and me together in our minds. No more. There'll be no more kisses in a deep creek lake. Be no more regerets for the love we make. And in the night time when you're dreaming, it's someone elses face that you'll be seeing...'til there's nothing at all. I will always wipe your tears for you. Tell you that there's nothing that you can't do. It's just you and me together in our minds. The music. The music that was ringin' in my ears is probably the reason for your tears. My guitar is not forgiven for all the nightmares you were living...'til there's nothing at all. I will always wipe your tears for you. Tell you that there's nothing that you can't do. It's just you and me together in our minds.
Drinkin' You Pretty: You need a cigarette, baby. And a liquor drink over ice. I need a thumb-size fatty. And a cold beer would be nice. You know tomorrow may bring a regrettful sigh, but right now I'm in love. I'm drinkin' you pretty. I hope you're drinkin' me pretty, too. I'm drinkin' you pretty before the daylight gets to you. You got a beautiful smile. And a body that just won't quit. You've got a stunning complexion. And a fabulous pair of eyes. You know tomorrow may bring a regrettful sigh, but right now I'm in love. I'm drinkin' you pretty. I hope you're drinkin' me pretty, too. I'm drinkin' you pretty before the daylight gets to you. You know tomorrow may bring a regrettful sigh, but right now I'm in love. I'm drinkin' you pretty. I hope you're drinkin' me pretty, too. I'm drinkin' you pretty before the daylight gets to you. Do do do do. Do do do do do. Do do do do. Do do do do...
I'll Fade Away:I was stuck at Sticky's on a Friday in July. All my friends were somewhere else, they never wondered why. A crowded table near me was probably feeling tight. So I stayed in the corner, and I think I drank all night. The less that you can see me, the less I have to say. But if it's up to me, I'll fade away...I was reminiscing with the one that got away. But my heart just dropped and my mouth just stopped, there was nothing else to say. I could see right through her as the truth fell from the sky. And the walls around came crashing down and the future drifted by. The more that you can see me, the less I have to say. But if it's up to me, I'll fade away...More than one way to skin a dog you say who's had his day. So take my hand and come with me and we'll fade away...Raindrops on the windshield. Headlights in your eyes. In another lonely city, on another sleepless night. The more that you see through me, the less I have to say. But if it's up to me, I'll fade away...
Fall Into Fall (Pt.2):When the summer green fades into yellow and the birds have flown away for a while, I will look for you beneath a clear October sky. Together we will fall into fall. I'll send smoke signals from the chimney and rake my leaves into piles ten feet high. And all I ask of you is to stare at your brown eyes. Together we will fall into fall. Together we will fall into fall. When the trees have all gone bare. She will never lose her flair. When there's a chill up in the air. She'll be warm when I get there. Stars are scattered for your viewing pleasure like the acorns the squirrels have left behind. Nostalgic scent of fire fills the orange autumn sky. Together we will fall into fall. Together we will fall into fall. Together we will fall into fall.
Just Takes Time:Jenny's on a holiday far away. You know she's gone for good and you miss her. You think she's coming home and your wasted. And you wake to find that if you care, then you'll be there. You gotta try a little harder. It just takes time. Stopped in town yesterday on my way to Baltimore to play for the evening. I never thought to call. And I learned today that it'll never be the same. You can't recapture anything that isn't of it's time. But if you care, then you'll be there. You gotta try a little harder. It just takes time. It just takes time. It just takes time. And it just takes time. And we're out of touch, but there's really no one left to blame. When your feet are on the ground, the past just drifts away. But if you care, the you'll be there. You gotta try a little harder. It just takes time...
Halfway To Nowhere:I was soaking in solitude and drippin' with beer. Strings on my fingers and nothin' to fear. It's hot in this kitchen, I'm startin' to fry. Halfway to nowhere and hung out to dry. My view was an eagle's so I flew far and wide. Every new vision the further I'd glide. It's thin in this airway, I start to come down. Halfway to nowhere, with my feet on the ground. My words are wise when I disguise them. But deep inside I bleed...I search for perfection everywhere that I roam. My head on the highway and my heart safe at home. But I'm closer to perfect, she's further from me. Halfway to nowhere and achin' to be. Achin' to be, yeah.
2 Guys Named Tim:Timmy and I were wailin' down Ketucci's last AM with gufs and drafts and words of hope and sleep around the bend. Throw...the curtain back, take in the fresh air. Let the radio remind you. Listen to the things we say when we should be asleep. The purity of consciousness will never run as deep. Throw the curtain back, step inside my mind. Stroll around the grounds for hours. Every night she comes to me in converstation and in dream. I'm lonely as I'll ever be, at least I'm goin' home. Timmy and I were never more aware of what went wrong. So we pulled anchor for the shore, we'd been here for too long. Troll the outer banks, work against the tide. Float until your problems drift away. Every night she comes to me in conversation and in dream. I'm lonely as I'll ever be, at least I'm goin' home. Throw...the curtain back, take in the fresh air. Let the radio remind you. Every night she comes to me in conversation and in dream. I'm lonely as I'll ever be, at least I'm goin' home.
She Stays In Love:I never saw her look any better than when she showed up in the grey sweater. I wonder if she came here alone. Too much cologne in the combat zone to see. (I think she stays in love.) And it seems. (I think she stays in love.) That she wants to be. (I think she stays in love.) In love with me again. (I think she stays...) I tried to nail her but her heart broke my arrow. She's a gamble and the chances are narrow. I try so hard not to catch her eye. But just a blink, I can't think, she's in control and I don't know why. (I think she stays in love.) And it seems. (I think she stays in love.) That she wants to be. (I think she stays in love.) In love with me again. (I think she stays...) I can't say why. She stays in love. I can't say why. I never saw her look any better than when she showed up in the grey sweater. I wonder if she came here alone. Too much cologne in the combat zone to see. (I think she stays in love.) And it seems. (I think she stays in love.) That she wants to be. (I think she stays in love.) In love with me again. (I think she stays...) I can't say why. She stays in love. I can't say why. She stays in love. (I cannot play this shit anymore...ahhhh.)
