Burn 03:16
lyrics
buy track
Floating above the world Have you ever gone in debt And wished for death Have you ever watched a fire burn Choosing to walk away Have you ever put your faith In a broken place Have you ever watched a fire burn Halloween last year I chugged two bottles of red wine Slept on the street Have you ever watched a fire burn Young man with a dream An overactive brain Brutal industry Have you ever watched a fire burn Flew out to LA Full of characters Have you ever watched a fire burn I wired a water purifier for Dubai Produced this album Have you ever watched a fire burn I've attempted suicide Saw my favorite band and cried Touched the Hollywood sign Have you ever watched a fire burn My best friend is a dog We go for long, long walks And I want to save the world I'm awake at 4am Creating all I can Have I confessed too much Aw fuck it I've met folks from Austria, Iraq and India Amsterdam, Russia And they're all beautiful to me

Made to Break 03:22
lyrics
buy track
This is my story So listen and listen close I'll only say this once Before I give it up I was never meant to live through it But I got a second chance to do it I find myself now thanking God Whether you believe it or not I'm alive, yeah Do you feel alive Well I hope that you think about me someday And I hope that you smile my friend 'Cause you'll be free, once you understand We were made to break and heal again Can't soothe my mind enough in Mental nervous drugs I need a line or two Something to rid my blues Passionless kiss on a lonely night That was our last goodbye And I went out of control You went back to what you know But I'm still alive, yeah Tell me, do you feel alive, alive Well I hope that you think about me someday And I hope that you smile my friend 'Cause you'll be free, once you understand We were made to break and heal again Said I hope that you think about me someday And I hope that you smile my friend 'Cause you'll be free, once you understand We were made to break to heal again

Won't you tell me why the light's gone away I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die But this pressure's got me down And the girl that I love's been haunting my dreams Burned in my eyes Summer, winter, spring Summer, winter, spring Ooh, I can give you everything Just let me give you everything I wanna take care of you I wanna take care of you I wanna take care of you I wanna take care of you My house of wills is open to your will To your will So come and go as you please You'll always have a home in me Summer, winter, spring Summer, winter, spring You are the one who haunts my dreams You are the one who haunts my dreams Summer, winter, spring Summer, winter, spring Won't you tell me why the light's gone away I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die But this pressure's got me down And the girl that I love's been haunting my dreams Burned in my eyes

Hospital 04:05
lyrics

Drop your costume, it weighs ten pounds Meet me halfway downtown My, my, my, do you look uptight I say let's skip pebbles And ponder up our own paradise I want a space bound, top down, love I want a selfish, reckless love Let's settle down somewhere warm They'll never understand us here You hit the gas, I'll steer 'Cause they'll talk until you wanna die But they won't last the test of time We pray in wordless churches Make love in vibrant skies, yeah Girl, want you to drop your cell phone Tonight the skyline is our home My, my, my, they'll say They're like the people in movies My, my, my I wish We could just waste the night away I want a space bound, top down, love I want a selfish, reckless love Let's settle down somewhere warm They'll never understand us here You hit the gas, I'll steer 'Cause they'll talk until you wanna die But they won't last the test of time We pray in wordless churches Make love in vibrant skies, yeah

Don't Mind Me 02:04
lyrics
buy track
As the fragments of my life in a small town Flood my head like flower petals on an early grave A familiar face finally puts my body to peace (Ah) Don't mind me (Ah) Don't mind me, don't mind me, ma. (Ah) But I give you it all With all we take to heart You think we'd be a little more human You think we'd say more, or less But the cards all fold And you won't get to live this day again So make it count, every second (Ah) Don't mind me (Ah) Don't mind me, don't mind me, ma.

Synesthesia 02:00

Sometimes I start to think It's all in my mind When I taste the words you say But I don't savor the advice Don't wait for me Don't beg, don't cry You'll learn to walk And turn your eye My god, synesthesia

Happy at My Worst 03:36
lyrics
buy track
This world is unforgiving son That's what I often hear Well, I will be the forgiving one Darling have no fear But I can't say how sad I've been So I wear it on my face Can't you see it when you talk to me Can't you hear what I don't say My words have failed me, the barriers Got mine behind bars when I rehearse With you, I'm different You've put me first With you, I'm happy at my worst You hate the way your features fall Upon your face When you're a wreck Couldn't have had a longer day Well I can't say how sad I've been So I wear it on my face Can't you see it when you talk to me Can't you hear what I don't say My words have failed me, ooh, the barriers I got my mind behind bars when I rehearse With you, I'm different You've put me first, ooh With you, I'm happy at my worst

Daughter of the Woods 02:13
lyrics
buy track
She is the daughter of the woods And I am the leader of the wolves All the boys run to hunt her love But I feel her soul beneath her bones And I wanna swing her around on my shoulders And hold her above all the pain I wanna call her my own But Lord knows that I don't deserve her No one does She is the daughter of the woods And I am the leader of the wolves All the boys run to hunt her love But I feel her soul beneath her bones And I want to swing her around on my shoulders And hold her above all the pain I want to call her my own But Lord knows that I don't deserve her No one does She is the daughter of the woods

Under Control 05:41
lyrics
buy track
Coping with the current flow of feeling alone Living for the moment, you don't see how you've grown Holding on to anything that tugs on our hearts Attachment in the image of love We've had our habits take control Done things so harmful to our souls But it's okay to feel vulnerable Don't be ashamed, we're all vulnerable Under control, under control Under control, under control Under control, under control Under control, under control You said you never use So then, why are you Hunched in a home of the bleakest of hues Why's it your eyes lit up when I called you An angel in white in the darkest of blues In the darkest of blues I can read your silence I can feel your pain Drinking from the bottle A portrait for your frame You crack your fingers when you get scared You curl your toes when your impaired Bed of blankets on the floor Who knew I'd miss and I'd want more I want more Hours pass from night to day Like a knife to the bone Sharpened edges of reality that no one should know An appetite for self-abuse Comprehend the magnitude Good Lord, guide my consciousness Keep the TV on like an IV drip Keep the TV on like an IV drip Daring to dwell in an impulsive realm Where we frantically use to soothe ourselves Walking around with a jagged soul Bound to hurt who you love in attempts to whole We've had our habits take control Done things so harmful to our souls Oh but it's okay to be vulnerable Yeah, we all feel vulnerable Under control, under control Under control, under control Under control, under control Under control, under control

For My Friends 05:53
lyrics
buy track
Got a trophy above my dresser drawers That signifies what I've endured No single file, we had a party By the time it was over, changed the world I'd set up my speakers Sing songs from the bleachers When this was all impossible And I would only dream about it I can't believe I really brought the town together When before you'd walk right through me Now I walk around with confidence but hidden humility It's like you never knew me Well if you wanna do what you want Then go, my brother Well if you wanna do what you want Then live, my sister You want? Then go, My brother Well if you wanna do what you want Then live, my sister We are free, we are free For my friends with their heads down Broken eyes Our perception's not a fixed lens Let me be your guide Dare to dream in the dark times When I don't believe myself I need your help Now you need mine Call me up, we can laugh all day One less moment we're hopeless Is a triumph over fate Peace of mind's as precious as life Well if you wanna do what you want Then go, my brother Well if you wanna do what you want Then live, my sister You want? Then go, My brother Well if you wanna do what you want Then live, my sister We are free, we are free
