Gravity 03:30
You are a sunrise That makes its way across the skies And disappears to the other side So it's dark for a little while A little while Gravity pulls me back, brings me home Sailing through a sea of stars all my own Highs and the lows, love Wax and wane as the moon above I'm the moon and you are my sun We are two but we move as one One Gravity pulls me back, brings me home Sailing through a sea of stars all my own

Glances 04:14
Nothing you do is explained You disappear without a trace And nothing you say is the truth But you blame me for not trusting you My kingdom for your love My kingdom for your love All of your poetry I read it like a prophecy And tried to find hope in each line Clouds veil the eastern star this time My kingdom for your love My kingdom for your love I know now that nothing good lasts I just let the daylight hours pass And if you should happen to write I'll recall the way I feel tonight And take my chances with passing glances And take my chances with passing glances My kingdom for your love My kingdom for your love My kingdom for your love My kingdom for your love

Manic 03:40
Well I just want to be myself And I don't want to take the pills But if I don't I have to crawl Between the valley and the hills And you want what you can't have And you're good but you act bad And you reach but you can't grab To brace yourself for that It's manic baby, I know that too well It's lonely in this textbook case of hell It's alright sometimes nobody can tell so I think, so I hope, so I have to believe Sometimes when I close my eyes I can almost see the truth But when your mind's the one that lies There isn't much the heart can do And you want what you can't have And you're good but you act bad And you reach but you can't grab To brace yourself for that It's manic baby, I know that too well It's lonely in this textbook case of hell It's alright sometimes nobody can tell so I think, so I hope, so I have to believe It's manic baby, I know that too well It's lonely in this textbook case of hell It's alright sometimes nobody can tell so I think, so I hope, so I have to believe

Satellite 04:29
Hidden moon; the sky is cracked with lightning Spoke too soon and now the game is frightening But there is one solid stone beneath my feet You never ebb or flow despite the turning seas Each morning I wake up and spend my day with you And I won't be afraid as long as that is true When my skies are gray you stay exactly where you are And when they're blue, you move. Become my my evening star I don't have another satellite, no I don't have another satellite, no Haunted night; the fog reflects the pale light Branches bare; I know there's something out there But there is one solid stone beneath my feet You never ebb or flow despite the turning seas Each morning I wake up and spend my day with you And I won't be afraid as long as that is true When my skies are gray you stay exactly where you are And when they're blue, you move. Become my my evening star I don't have another satellite, no I don't have another satellite, no I don't have another satellite, no I don't have another satellite, no I know there's something out there I don't have another satellite, no I don't have another satellite, no I don't have another satellite, no I don't have another satellite, no

Crossfire 04:04
Caught in the crossfire of a pre-existing feud But I was a kid back then, I didn't know the truth You wanted fast, I needed slow Gave me a choice as long as the answer wasn't no Oh huckleberry, you were the light in my sullen sky You were my world, you were my world But you lied Oh where did you go, where did you go when you changed your mind? We were just fine, we were just fine But you stooped so low I made the move, then you did too Expectations high but I disappointed you I wanted you talk, you wanted to fight Calling me up in the middle of the night Oh huckleberry, you were the light in my sullen sky You were my world, you were my world But you lied Oh where did you go, where did you go when you changed your mind? We were just fine, we were just fine But you stooped so low I know what it's like to be alone To never feel at home when you're at home Oh you can't always get what you want, no Oh huckleberry, you were the light in my sullen sky You were my world, you were my world But you lied Oh where did you go, where did you go when you changed your mind? We were just fine, we were just fine But you stooped so low

I Should Go 04:17
Take your lies and your regrets downtown Drink yourself so blind, but don't make a sound Put yourself to bed and dream a troubled dream Wake again in pain of a different breed But I don't want to hang around anymore My liver's biting at the dust, my heart has hit the floor And if I find just one more thing to justify Following that siren's song I think that I might die I should go home I should go Call your friends, find somewhere else to go When the daylight ends you can't be alone Demons in your head won't let you rest or sleep And they don't mind the bad company you keep But I don't want to hang around anymore My liver's biting at the dust, my heart has hit the floor And if I find just one more thing to justify Following that siren's song I think that I might die I should go home I should go Even when you wake up you're afraid you'll drown Even when you find someone they never stick around I can't be there for you, I've got troubles of my own I can't be there for you sinking like a stone And I don't want to hang around anymore My liver's biting at the dust, my heart has hit the floor And if I find just one more thing to justify Following that siren's song I think that I might die I should go home I should go

Wonderland 03:25
With your arrows in my back I always return to you You swear that you're not icing me I know it isn't true I think you took a deeper look at who I am I think you headed for the hills I think you made a different plan And honey that's alright You know I understand Fiction was more fun than the truth We learned there's no such thing as wonderland Ah, wonderland Ah, wonderland Ah With your gospel on my tongue I always would sing your songs Looking back i realized I had all the lyrics wrong I think you took a deeper look at who I am I think you headed for the hills I think you made a different plan And honey that's alright You know I understand Fiction was more fun than the truth We learned there's no such thing as wonderland Ah, wonderland Ah, wonderland Ah Too late to cross the great divide Too late to lead the blind I think you took a deeper look at who I am I think you headed for the hills I think you made a different plan And honey that's alright You know I understand Fiction was more fun than the truth We learned there's no such thing as wonderland Ah, wonderland Ah, wonderland Ah Wonderland Ah, wonderland Ah, wonderland Ah

Phantom Limb 03:50
The moment you think you're gonna drown Nothing in your head feels right, right now Breathe in, breathe out You're trapped behind a wall of sound Your hands, they shake. Your heart, it pounds Breathe in, breathe out You're just losing traction, a phantom limb A chemical reaction to the memory of him The oracle speaks in rhymes I don't have the answer, especially not this time Day by day Is my best advice Your head, it spins. You can barely see Left foot, then right, alternately Get out, get out The sidewalk feels so very far You forget just where you are But get out, get out You're just losing traction, a phantom limb A chemical reaction to the memory of him The oracle speaks in rhymes I don't have the answer, especially not this time Day by day Is my best advice But oh, doesn't it feel good in the sun? oh, doesn't it feel good in the sun? oh, doesn't it feel good in the sun? oh, doesn't it feel good in the sun? You're just losing traction, a phantom limb A chemical reaction to the memory of him The oracle speaks in rhymes I don't have the answer, especially not this time Day by day Is my best advice

Rise 03:21
Let the cats fight it out I'm going home I'm going home to be with you Let the cats fight it out over Lipstick and shoes Over pop culture news I'm going home To california But this time not to be the one to be taken care of Let the dogs bark it out I'm on my way I'm on my way to be myself Let the dogs bark it out over Traffic and lost time Over standing in line I'm on my way To california But this time not to be the one to be taken care of, no And when you wake If your heart still feels heavy Fill a lake with every lovely memory And if your fear It still gets to your head We'll build a sailboat out of your hospital bed You raise a sail, I'll be your wind And you'll feel better when the sun rises again Orbiting your sky Sending particles of color to your eyes And I'll be there When you rise

Answer Me 03:01
Trap of forbidden fruit Talking snake to boot Isn't that nice Isn't that nice Nothing we can do But accept this grace from you Isn't that nice Isn't that nice Silence answers prayer Bathing in my broken starlight These rules don't seem fair But nothing in life is fair, right? If you want me to say you're the king you better Answer me, answer me this time If you wear the crown then don't let me down you better Show me now, because I won't bow blindly No Take it all away So that I must cry your name Isn't that nice Isn't that nice Wish I may I wish I might Precious in his sight Isn't that nice Isn't that nice Planes fly overhead Shadows cast are long in mourning Living and the dead Cry your name that can't be boring If you want me to say you're the king you better Answer me, answer me this time If you wear the crown then don't let me down you better Show me now, because I won't bow blindly No Answer me, answer me this time Show me now, because I won't bow blindly
