Drowning Out

We’re drowning out
Pretending not to
Where are our waves?
We won’t be frozen over
Don’t go without
we deserve better
Come plant your feet
We’ll shake the ground below us

What happened to summertime?
I have the autumn blues
I wanna roll windows down
and play the music loud
and watch the storm clouds bruise
Aaah, aaaah, aaaaaaah, aaaaaaah
What happened to summertime?
I have the autumn blues
I wanna run low tide waves
And chase the stormy skies
Like we’ve got light to waste
Summer resurrection
Bring me back to
Warm summer nights,
Gaze held high
We’re laying on your roof
I wanna roll, windows down,
to play the music loud
And watch the storm clouds bruise
Aaah, aaaah, aaaaaaah, aaaaaaah

Lifelines

Oh, when you look at me
See me writhing
While I ride it out
this feeling
Oh, how you have this way
of revealing
All these little things
So brightly
(When I look at you I lose control
The thoughts inside my head
I want to know the rest of you
So baby take my hand)
Blink, and put a hand to my chest
I feel the lifelines in your hand
Hear my heart’s palpitations
The shell of your ear there
Blink, and try to forget the rest
Let the floor fall out, let the door stay locked,
keep the curtains closed, and ignore the clock
Blink, and try to forget the rest
I feel the lifelines in your hand

Fall

Keep me close
Hold my hand
I don’t know
If I can land
My body hurts
My thoughts are rash
Left my dreamin’
in the trash
Instead of all these uppercuts
I need your love, I need it so much
Catch me here while gravity
Goes on to plan my great Fall
Light a flare
And let it fly
Bright enough
To burn the sky
To get me out
from underneath
The shade from all
these canopies
Instead of all these uppercuts
I need your love, I need it so much
Catch me here while gravity
Goes on to plan my great Fall
When you lose your grip on me
After all we’ve held onto
I don’t want you to bury
Yourself away for my sake
You'd better know when to let me Fall

Fog

You’re never at home, you’re never at home
You get close to somebody, and you still feel alone
You just run away, can’t keep up with yourself
At the end of each day, you just want to yell
When you wake in the morning, you don’t feel your age
You think of the time, you let slip away
But why hurry now when the sand is spread thin,
And open closed doors if you’re greeted by wind?
Abusing your head, abusing your bones
Everybody feels too far so you stray on alone.
In spite of the slow and bleak epiphanies
You’re one whole divided: one blind and one sees
When you wake in the morning, you don’t feel your age
You think of the time, you let slip away
But why hurry now when the sand is spread thin,
And open closed doors if you’re greeted by wind?
And you reach out, a hand through the fog
But it’s so thick, you can’t see anything
And you reach out, a hand through the fog
But it’s so thick, you can’t see anything
You can’t see anything

Waste of Time

Pick up your feet
you've got places to go
people to meet
new ways to grow
Better you leave
your woes behind
they will get heavy
And it’s a waste of time
All those things you think that matter
oh they have never really mattered
And all the time you spend on problems
that aren’t your problems is a problem (ah-ah)
Take it from me
You’ve got it good
It’ll get better
When you leave this bad mood
Think of the place
You long for most
I’ll bet good money
That it takes you to the coast
All those things you think that matter
oh they never have really mattered
And all the time you spend on problems
that aren’t your problems is a problem
Oh It’s a problem

Eat Our Dust

Why aren’t we racing cars?
It’s not supposed to rain
And even if it does,
We’ll work on our game
Learn to intimidate
With fire in our eyes
But they don’t know we’re soft
We wouldn’t hurt a fly
We never drive too slowly,
The looks they give are dirty
When we speed up too fast for them to keep up
Eat our Dust (x4)
We don’t hang out in bars
Got better things to do
Like tearing apart cars
Then making them move
We show up late to race
Don’t need the extra time
The early birds can talk
But we’re just here to drive
We never drive too slowly,
The looks they give are dirty
When we speed up too fast for them to keep up
Eat our Dust
Why aren’t we racing cars?
It’s not supposed to rain,
And even if it does
We’ll work on our game

Backwards Forwards

Everybody wants to be someone
Better than to die, and be forgotten
But memories don’t last forever
If you want to last, you have to be clever
This way backward, this way forward
Everyone is bound in submission
Suspicious legacies, back to tradition
But when l’Alarm sounds, a call to action
Here comes the landslide, divide and fraction
This way backward, this way forward
