lyrics
Just let me be, I’m not the boldest in the room I may be alone but it’s better than knowing But I suspect what I suspect Oh no, and nothing’s really falling down Oh no, it’s like I could be anywhere Oh no, there’s no point in you calling out Oh no, I don’t wanna get stuck How can it be just like that? Don’t they burn in the sun? How can you think you love someone? I don’t wanna know I don’t wanna know if you don’t want to know me I don’t wanna know I don’t wanna know if you don’t want to know me Oh no, I tried to let you see me Oh no, I thought that you might need me Oh no, I’m running out of excuses Oh yah, I’d better cut my losses now How can it be just like that? You don't run into me When you’re crossing the street I don’t wanna know I don’t wanna know if you don’t want to know me I don’t wanna know I don’t wanna know if you don’t want to know me I don’t wanna know I don’t wanna know if you don’t want to know me I don’t wanna know I don’t wanna know if you don’t want to know me

lyrics
I tried to hide you anywhere you’d fit But you’d have none of it You’re always putting up a fight I never can let you out of my sight This is what happens when you turn it off It feels better, ooh it feels better You feel the seat overturned Have you ever been so much as a friend? Returned to its rightful place All in the drawer next to the socks They shout “why don’t you give me away” It’s been too long since I've seen the light of day Returned to its rightful place Up in a cupboard next to the sauce They shout ”why don’t you give me away, give me away“ It’s been too long I’ve been packed away Are you comfortable, you worm! You know that it depends She can feel you, see your turn You know that she’s a friend Feel the seat overturned Alive all over again Feel the beat, feel the burn Alive all over again Returned to its rightful place All in the drawer next to the socks They shout “why don’t you give me away” It’s been too long since I've seen the light of day Return to its rightful place Up in a cupboard next to the sauce They shout “why don’t you give me away, give me away” It’s been too long I’ve been packed away

Outside In Sight 02:47
lyrics
Open the door, let the rain in, rain in It’s more beautiful than staying in, staying in The birds are enjoying it somehow It doesn’t seem to weigh them down Lock and key, click the latch Put some clothes in the wash Watch the children play outside Hide or seek, there’s not much time You’re no match for me You’re no match for me I smell leather by your door It used to bother me but not so much anymore I smell leather by your door It used to bother me but not so much anymore The layers of time In dust on the wood They dampen the sound As only they could There are hands on his back As he moves through the crowd Everybody wants to know Where he's been There are hands on his back As he moves through the crowd Everyone wants to know When he goes out And the prince is playing his guitar on the stage As this guy sings in a phone on an airplane On an airplane he sings And there's hands on his head and his front and his back and his bed and They’re all over him They’re all over him They’re all over him They’re all over him

Shoes Of The Brother 02:52
lyrics
Sign said leave your shoes behind We walked from stone to light Barefoot held the note all night The roots grew out from under us There was nothing to distrust They were right by my side Turn around, walk home, there you are (It was always mine) Turn around, walk home, there you are (You say I'll be fine, I've got all this time) Cold sun like a silent sound His shoes abandoned on a lawn Imagine them here living in a house Shovel snow in an old time font Hold the note till it spins Selling short again, turn around Think of places you’ve been Try again and the note rings out Turn around, walk home, there you are (It was always mine, it was always mine) Turn around, walk home, there you are (You tell me I'm fine, you say I've got time) Turn around, walk home, there you are (It was always mine, and they were by my side) I’ve got all this time, and I will be just fine I've got time Carried her to buy some shoes Asked which ones she would choose Said he would wear them too Her notes spun in all directions The roots grew out from under them She grabbed his hand to dance And they ran faster than they ever had I did not create this I cannot erase this I need not translate it But it gives me grace

Dream Machine 04:52
lyrics
There is nothing to feel guilty about I don’t want your pity, I’ll wear it all out I want your love I want your love I want your love I want your love There is nothing in between us Some miles, covered in dust I want your love I want your lust More than that, I want your love I’d check your flight’s on time When you roll in late at night I wanna be able to fall asleep Without holding you in my mind Pretending we’re alive together In the weather I’ll abide it inside of my mind I pretend I pretend I pretend I have so much to say I could fill a book up every day Oh I could say everything that’s on my mind Everything, I need more time Everyone, I’d make you mine And it’s still all in my mind I just need some time I’m getting impatient The world isn’t waiting For me to catch up It’s just pressing on now

Winky 04:48
lyrics
Let the minutes pass, cop cars on my street Can’t sleep but can’t get up to turn down the heat What am I supposed to feel When they’re out there And I'm not that way Even though I tried to say it Where does that leave us? I don’t understand what happens now The same fucking ringing in my ears Won’t leave me alone You can’t take this away from me It’s all I’ve got to keep me going What am I supposed to feel When they’re out there And I'm not that way Even though I tried to say it Where does that leave us? I don’t understand what happens now The same fucking ringing in my ears Won’t leave me alone The frustration It won't let me alone Slip me yellow, push my head down on the pillow Close my eyes and let me sleep Oh let me rest and let me weep For what’s gone before and what’s leaving And that I’m not the one to whom you're speaking I heard you but you may never know It’s jealousy too Raging on against no one In particular except myself I can get all the toys I want But I can’t buy the grit and the haunt I can watch it, I can hear and get close But I can’t have it or touch what I need most I know you may never understand And I won't get to see your empty hand But I don't want to sell myself out like that I’m not that way I’m not that way Even though I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried And I tried and I tried and I tried You don’t know what I will do I’ve got something to hold onto Going left and going right Oh it’s OK, I’ve got all night

3rd Most Popular Fish 03:09
lyrics
The bodies are piling up, Joe killed them for nothing (On my behalf) I’m no better than a Gold Bug prospector (You do the math) So unpreserved So undeserved Heed the warnings, let them pass Drape my shoulders, shoes to match Eat the fish, lick the bones Don’t forget what you’ve been told Heed the warnings, let them pass Everyone adds to the mess Eat the fish and lick the bones Don’t forget what you’ve been told Bodies piled up, killed for me Tossed in velvet, blood for cash They’re lying in the trash so unpreserved An oily bath so undeserved Heed the warnings, let them pass Everyone adds to the mess Eat the fish and lick the bones Don’t forget what you’ve been told Heed the warnings, let them pass Everyone adds to the mess Eat the fish and lick the bones Don’t forget what you’ve been told Heed the warnings, let them pass Everyone adds to the mess Eat the fish, lick the bones Don’t forget what you’ve been told

Defaced 02:17
lyrics
Well you think I’m gonna stay here? Oh Tonight I’m gonna sneak out for a walk And I won’t let you phase me Some say you’ve got to try No I'm not gonna put on a new one No one asked you to chase me With every lie and every costume I know you’ll never wanna know the truth Write your name on my desk Write your name on my desk Write your name, write your name, write your name Time to run from all of us When when when when when when when when your time’s up Time to run for all of us When your turn’s up How’d you know, your faith in that springtime memory? And springs kind of brightened How did you come now, rearranged? And the animals can all come at you now Like we used to

Take you away for the weekend Close the blinds so you can sleep in Forget that time that you sunk us Rearrange myself and bunk up Remember the time you saw my mind Saw the light within my eyes You came out in disguise We watched Trading Places twice You turned off all the lights You made the christmas tree blink quite nice You look in my mind You see the light in my eyes You look in my mind You see the light in my eyes In my eyes

E&M 03:26
lyrics
Fortune misfortune It’s mine to make, you hold onto my hat Fortune misfortune It’s fine, I’ll take my time and watch my back Don’t regret what I blew off I'll forget what I can’t stop Watch me walk down the street While you sleep I’m in between And it’s all around (Town) You can’t slow me down (Town) You know what I am now (Town) You can't slow me down (Town) Fortune misfortune The things I do, you’ll try to understand Fortune misfortune The things I say, I’ll never take them back I'll never take them back I’ll never take them back We move with great pace With fantastic haste we move We move in the night When the light does not shine in our eyes Cuz it’s all around town now You know what I am now It's all around town now There's no going back now, now It's all around town now You know what I am now, now It's all around town now There’s no getting out now, now, now It's all around town now You know what I am now, now
