Little White Lies

It'd be nice if I could listen to
All the advice I give you
About moving on and letting go
Cause I need to, lord knows
Little white lies, I keep saying them
Little white lies, I can't stop sayin them
I don't wanna want you back, but I want you back
I don't wanna want you back, but I do
Don't you come crawling back. Come crawling back
I don't wanna want you back, but I do
I paste this grin onto my face
While within is a bitter taste
It lingers there, hidden from view
Cause I need to want to forget you
Little white lies, I keep saying them
Little white lies, I can't stop sayin them
I don't wanna want you back, but I want you back
I don't wanna want you back, but I do
Don't you come crawling back. Come crawling back
I don't wanna want you back, but I do
It's so hard to not confuse
A true love with a muse
But upon this thought I cannot dwell
Cause I need to get out from under your spell

Scaredy Cat

If you ever considered yourself through my eyes
You'd see you as a boxer with two fists made to fly
But it's not fists you're throwing as you throw me away
While your panic is growing with each day
If you weren't so scared we could be anywhere
If you weren't so scared we'd already be there
You say you don't need saving from this water you tread
Are you happy evading evolution you dread?
Are you searching or slaving to your comfort zone?
Are you craven or craving a new unknown?
If you weren't so scared we could be anywhere
If you weren't so scared we'd already be there

Be On Your Way

You made a tough call, don't mind me at all
Consider me gone, be on your way
You got to me good, but this boy's turning back to wood
Consider me gone, be on your way
Don't give me those puppy eyes, they melt this heart of mine
Hang on to those puppy eyes for the next guy in line
I don't mean to seem cold, but I can't return what you have sold
Consider me gone, be on your way
Don't give me those puppy eyes, they melt this heart of mine
Hang on to those puppy eyes for the next guy in line
Sometimes you just know you've got to cut your losses and go
Consider me gone, be on your way

Chameleon Eyes

Waking alone can't compare to the dawns that we share
So far away on holiday, it's only miles from your face
So wide, chameleon eyes
So light, hold them in mine
Words on the phone can't convey all things we don't have to say
So far away on holiday, it's only miles
So wide, chameleon eyes
So light, hold them in mine

Talking To Shadows
04:04
|

|
There's a little moment frozen in time
A few seconds on the last night that she was mine
She fell asleep with a hand on my knee while I played notes so sweet that she placed in my mind
There's a little moment frozen in time
I'm talking to shadows, I'm talking to ghosts
I talk to the shade of a woman I've known
We talked in the garden, I looked at my toes
I talk to the shade of a woman I've known
There's a little moment frozen in time
Eyes wide as oceans poured into mine
We fell asleep after reaching the peak with my heart in my teeth and my chest on her spine
There's a little moment frozen in time
I'm talking to shadows, I'm talking to ghosts
I talk to the shade of a woman I've known
We talked in the garden, I looked at my toes
I talk to the shade of a woman I've known

Duane the downward facing dog was waiting at the door
His sniffing snout and furry face were firmly on the floor
His waist wiggled as he weaved his way from patio to porch
Up several spiral staircases to yodel with the yogi
Duane the downward facing dog was barking for a bone
Though truly he was trying for a tranquil type of tone
But barking was the best that he could muster on his own
Which is why he waited wistfully to yodel with the yogi
Duane the downward facing dog, how happily he howled
Mouth making moving melodies while hooting like an owl
A much less patient puppy wouldn't sit still sans a scowl
But he jumps for joy and waits all week to yodel with the yogi

Stay An Hour Or Two
03:35
|
|||
|
I was put here in your path
To turn you on dear, to make you laugh
You've made yourself clear that your past
Is very present, don't let it last
Please don't go I want you so, stay an hour or two
If you go I don't know what I'll do
I've thought it over, it's okay
If the heart that drives me drives you away
But it's not your heart dear, it's your brain
That leaves you lonely and betrayed
Please don't go I want you so, stay an hour or two
If you go I don't know what I'll do

Annabelle, I should go home
I tried to leave you alone, I can't leave you alone
I should go home
Annabelle, I should have known
I tried to call your phone, you turned off your phone
I should have known
When you let down your guard it tears me apart
It turns me to shards, I need CPR
Before it gets dark, Annabelle I should go home
Annabelle, I screwed this up
I tried to not give a fuck, but I give a fuck
I screwed this up
Annabelle, I should go home
I tried to leave you alone, I can't leave you alone
I should go home
When you let down your guard it tears me apart
It turns me to shards, I need CPR
Before it gets dark, Annabelle I should go home

Kamikaze Girl

Why do you listen to the devil on your shoulder?
His advice is acidic, why do you heed it?
I'm not out to get you, but you're out to get you, my kamikaze girl
How can you focus on impending loss with your head on my shoulder?
Your defense mechanisms can be muted
You've gotta replace them with the song that you're hearing

Things I Won't Forget
02:59
|
|||
|
Love-making eyes, chess playing words
Lips lit by moonlight, giving in to any urge
These are things I won't forget, ever
Saying yes all day to every random though
Naysayers giving chase, we can't be caught
These are things I won't forget, ever
The way you made my bed before we'd mess it up
The way you turned your head the first time I puckered up
These are things I won't forget, ever

Southpaw, don't take my hand if the other one holds another man
It's the last straw I can stand
It's the last straw
Keep your clothes
Keep your door closed
I'll close mine
