I'll Play It Wrong
03:53
|

I feel compelled to say
I wasn’t honest with you today.
I didn’t quite lie, I didn’t equivocate.
I shouted at your eyes,
I feigned innocence.
I told you everything you wanted to hear.
You criticized me again,
I know it’s wrong.
It’s not a matter of wrong or right,
I’m just not used to living.
Above and below
I’ll kiss your hand and you’ll know
That when you show me around your life
I’ll be indifferent
Because I taught you everything you need to know.
But every now and again,
I’ll play it wrong.
It’s not a matter of wrong or right,
I’m just not used to living.

Things I Like to Believe
04:33

Here are things I like to believe,
But I can’t bear to write them down now,
I’d lie through my teeth.
Just tell me when I’m wrong,
I’ll write a song and let the music say,
“Just tell me I’m wrong.”
I can’t watch you hurt yourself again,
I can’t watch you hurt yourself again.
Here are things I thought I knew,
But I can’t bear to say them out loud,
I’d lie through my teeth.
Just tell me when I’m wrong,
I’ll write a song and let the music say,
“Just tell me I’m wrong.”
Here are things I like to believe,
But I can’t bear to write them down now,
I’d lie through my teeth.

Runnin a Fuckin Business
04:36

I wait for my wounds to heal,
And if it doesn’t happen, then I’ll know why.
And when I hear your excuses engineered
To make suspicions disappear,
Then I’ll know why, then I’ll know why.
We’ll all know why.
“To each according to their need,”
Take a moment to reread.
We still have time to fix this broken love,
Unless you know something that I don’t know.
We took a ride in a snowstorm,
You couldn’t bear to look me in the face.
You tore a hole in the lining of her soul
And your tears were damage control
And I know why, now I know why.
We all know why.
“To each according to their need,”
Take a moment to reread.
We still have time to fix this broken love,
Unless you know something that I don’t know.

History is History

Then I heard you say,
“I’ve learned to ignore you.
I regret every day.”
‘Cause I’m on my way to an early grave.
Friendship is friendship but history is history.
This family has no meaning,
It’s just a lie you chased away.
When you’re underneath a mountain, dreaming…
Well it shouldn’t matter anyway.
‘Cause we’re on our way to an early grave.
Friendship is friendship but history is history.
She waves at me with a single finger
And she makes a quiet sound
Like a children’s song that lasts a decade long…
It shouldn’t matter but it does when she’s around.
‘Cause I’m on my way to an early grave.
Friendship is friendship, but history is history.

When You're Evil
05:14

My shadow never falls
‘Cause I’m a bad man, all in all.
When you’re evil nothing begins or ends,
You’re just a spirit with no conscience
And a desperate, lasting wish.
And you found just what he likes,
And you learned everything he thinks,
And you think that you know him better than he does himself.
When you told me, oh I was so lonely.
When you told me, oh I was so lonely.
I’m not alone in my own head,
You followed me there.
When you’re evil nothing begins or ends,
You’re just a spirit with no conscience
And a desperate, lasting wish.
And you found just what he likes,
And you learned everything he thinks,
And you think that you know him better than he does himself.
When you told me, oh I was so lonely.
When you told me, oh I was so lonely.

When You're All Alone
04:37

When you’re all alone,
When you have no imagination left,
When you’re scared that you are growing old…
When you’re all alone,
When you have no imagination left,
When you’re scared that you are growing old,
Just remember.
We used to hate this silence but now
It’s like we’ve run out of words.
We don’t talk, we don’t know how.
This is a mutiny and this is blue sky.
This is a, this is a, “give it a try.”
When you’re all alone,
When you have no imagination left,
When you’re scared that you are growing old,
Just remember.
What did you expect from a broken shell?
I tried to open your eyes, I couldn’t find a way.
This is opportunity, and this is goodbye.
This is a, this is a, “please step aside,”
While you’re waiting to die.
Because we don’t talk, we don’t know how…
When you thought I’d left you,
You cried pearls, didn’t you?
We don’t talk, we don’t know how.
We don’t talk, we don’t know how.
When you’re all alone,
Just remember.
