Get Lost 03:19
I can't see this going out of style you might think I'm crazy but just wait oh denial you're a cold one you said that with faith and time we'd be living it up again I gotta wonder just when do we begin I don't get lost I can always find my way back here the record's on and whispering in my ear it's hard to get what you want but you can use who you got fuck the shame and fear I can't stand the way they talk sometimes constant raving 'baby where's your smile?' all the lines someday somebody's rope will have something sharp at the end of it I wanna be there to see what you get I don't get lost I can always find my way back here the record's on and whispering in my ear it's hard to get what you want but you can use who you got fuck the shame and fear so if the storm clouds stick in the sky it's just a reason to stay in and if the sun stays set forever we'll hid a match from the wind I don't get lost I can always find my way back here the record's on and whispering in my ear it's hard to get what you want but you can use who you got fuck the shame and fear

eyes bright from starlight held tight all night 'til the flame we can't tame why oh why can't we turn back time to when that fire was prime and you were still here oh as space and time unwind we smash a twelve pack with the gods and the moon somewhere lost inside my mind it's you that drags me from the ashes of the past so eat your hear out father time we're living on your dime partners in crime lost in your last breath timeless 'til silence and the pain it all fades why oh why did you have to leave this way a star forced to meet its fate light can't escape oh as space and time unwind we smash a twelve pack with the gods and the moon somewhere lost inside my mind it's you that drags me from the ashes of the past so eat your hear out father time we're living on your dime partners in crime

Shock & Awe 03:14
count the fools waiting outside for you watch them lose faith in their costumes you can't choose no you don't have to someone new someone to smile through on the sidewalk all you get is shock & awe you stick around for a while wait until the pain is gone and it's the chance that there's someone like you out there that keeps you floating alone places where you don't belong I've seen true words on a bathroom stall don't mean I want them on my bedroom wall there's no law saying you can only fall so far try it on try it all on the sidewalk all you get is shock & awe you stick around for a while wait until the pain is gone and it's the chance that there's someone like you out there that keeps you floating alone places where you don't belong and all the lights come up in the bar and all the eyes race down for the floor on the sidewalk all you get is shock & awe you stick around for a while wait until the pain is gone and it's the chance that there's someone like you out there that keeps you floating alone places where you don't belong

smoke up sonny while you're standing there killing time with the wind at your back watch the ground as her red shoes shine and glide and reverse like a Cadillac she must've seen you coming sonny I guess she smelled it in the air can't change her mind by just showing up to show that you're there and now she's dancing in the rain on the sidewalk smiling and holding out her hand wondering all her life just where you've been and now you're holding the phone and you're shaking she's crying on the other end sometimes sonny things break break but don't bend head up honey when you're walking here you never know who you'll meet in this crowd and hit the ground with your red shoes this dirty town never sounded so loud and when your eyes meet slow and lonely just back it up and turn around now you're floating you're floating but with your feet on the ground and now you're dancing in the rain on the sidewalk smiling and holding out your hand wondering all her life just where he's been and now you're holding the phone and you're crying there's nothing on the other end sometimes honey things break break but don't bend

lost in sound silence all but drowns in it's wake stare it down from up high mind's eye in a daze hold on tight don't let go flying fast towards stars so bright open up your eyes for the first time blind the night dance dance in the flames burn like the sun air so pure way up here sand dune with a view tumble down spinning fast into another you hold on tight don't let go flying fast towards stars so bright open up your eyes for the first time blind the night dance dance in the flames burn like the sun

Rotunda 02:42
don't you wonder sometimes where where they go late at night arm and arm in the street light howling on hight at the moon if the shot's right all the claws they don't show at all they're trying them on we all wanna run away but we all wanna make it too we all miss those days in the dim arcade 'til the night cuts through and I don't wanna cling to someday like the callous few I don't need to hold my breath to turn blue don't you wonder sometimes where where we go when we die empty eyed into the light and all the shame that you made falls by the wayside no one cares if you got it wrong or if you saw it all we all wanna run away but we all wanna make it too we all miss those days in the dim arcade 'til the night cuts through and I don't wanna cling to someday like the callous few I don't need to hold my breath to turn blue

honey you just like the moon all you need's the right lighting you can split the world in two honey you just so in love with the truth to the point it's the only thing I can tell you nothing ever goes smooth you've got a fuse to hold a candle to until you wish that I'd never been born shake your fist at the sky curse the stork I rode in on this ain't Johnny's way but man is it cold well you know me too staring at my shoes got a 'glass is half full of day old blood' point of view and I'll pull through I just need someone to talk to maybe a wide eyed girl in brown cowboy boots like you nobody's dreams come true I've got one too I wanna drag you through until you wish that I'd never been born shake your fist at the sky curse the stork I rode in on this ain't Johnny's way but man is it cold

California girls got a special way of letting you down it's always sudden but it's never hard nobody's fault it's just not in the cards California nights always let you know when they're gonna go south you see it coming from a mile away it doesn't matter if you go or you stay I've stood on this shore a thousand times the sun diving into the waves but it's different somehow and I can't quite say what changed it must be something about you babe makes me wanna leave my wandering way that road is just as open and the ships still sail at dawn I just let 'em go I think I'm staying on California dreams go a darker place after they die stick sitting on the dock of the bay Moses himself would've lost his way so I packed a little bag and I headed east but didn't get too far stopped in the desert but it didn't feel right turned around in that cold blue light I've stared at this sky a thousand nights the stars dying into the day but it's different this time and I can't quite say what changed it must be something about you babe makes me wanna leave my wandering way that road is just as open and the ships still sail at dawn I just let 'em go I think I'm staying on

she says "don't hang up, I want you to hear this song about love and loss, it's got it all" she held the phone to the stereo and hummed along smiling through her teeth when the chorus came on it goes baby there ain't no easy way to say this I think I'm moving on it was fun while it lasted the fun is in the past, kid I think the flame is gone so I hung up the phone and I laid there in the dark alone 'til the sky swapped the moon for the sun and when the time came to catch my bus I just a wandered outside and waited someone in a car on the corner was playing that song now every night something cold compels me to turn the radio on so I can feel like I felt that time when we used to play that song --- one and one make too good to be true the love between me and you third time is the charm what harm could come from trying to mend a broken love but I'm falling for you again blue eyes make love begin and it's never too late-ly you've felt it too well he says she sells sea shells by the sea twist your words blame it on me what am I to do besides giving up missing you --- she says 'don't hang up, I want you to hear this song'
