I made my slow way home
Limping on broken bones Out of the thickest pine Across the county lines On to your wooden stairs I know you can repair I know you've seen the light I know you'll get me right Right Right Right I own a sinners heart I know the rain falls hard I know the currency I know the things you'll need I hope he hears my prayers I see you cut your hair I know the saving type I know you'll get me right Right Right Right But, Jesus I've fallen I don't mind the rain if I meet my maker I'll meet my maker clean But, Jesus the truth is I've struggled so hard to believe I'll meet my maker I'll need my maker To cure of my doubting blood And drain me of the sins I love And take from me my disbelief I know it should come easily But it remains inside of me It battles and devours me It cuddles up the side of me And whispers it convinces me I'm Right Right Right Right Right Right Right Right Right Right Right |

It was the year
I crashed my motor bike I think it was the summer I think you whispered When you gonna wake up? When you gonna wake up? Dear Slip these on your tongue Let us see it's a reinvention In angels hands, the medicine, a modern man Wait now Tell me that this isn't over Hang on Just long enough If this is heaven Or if it's just a warning Say you will stay with me Even if it's just til' morning If this is over Then why is it so hard? Just say you will stay with me One more night Stay here And we can start again And we can be made over You'll hear us shouting When you gonna wake up? When you gonna wake up? Scared Well everyone gets scared Just signal when your ready And angels hands seem so steady Seem so steady Wait now Tell me that this isn't over Hang on Just long enough If this is heaven Or if it's just a warning Say you will stay with me Even if it's just til' morning If this is over Then why is it so hard? Just say you will stay with me One more night If your running From your secrets I will make you take them with you I am ready I can take it You don't have to carry them alone There's a way out If you want it To an end or a new beginning You just have to find it on your own If this is heaven Or if it's just a warning Say you will stay with me If this is over Then why is it so hard? Just say you will stay with me One more night One more night One more night One more night (even if its just til' morning) One more night One more night One more night (even if its just til' morning) |

We went rolling up the coast til there was no more coast to wander
We tried every different road just to see which took us further We were living on the run, but there was no one chasing after We were looking out for love, and we were flirting with disaster While the world fades out We stayed in the sun too long Suffered a terrible burn Now everybody learns from disaster We stayed on the run too long Hoping we'd never return Now everybody learns from disaster We watched the sun burn down into cinders. We turned out into the planes, we turned in when we got tired We slept two across the bench, and we fit three under the covers We had just enough cash left to top the tent and fill the cooler And we lit the van with dreams until the sun turned into cinders And the world fades out We stayed in the sun too long Suffered a terrible burn Now everybody learns from disaster We stayed on the run too long Hoping we'd never return Now everybody learns from disaster We watched the sun burn down We watched the sun burn down We watched the sun burn down into cinders, into cinders We watched the sun burn down We watched the sun burn down into cinders We stayed in the sun too long Suffered a terrible burn Now everybody learns from disaster. We watched the sun burn down We watched the sun burn down into cinders Oh, into cinders Oh We watched the sun burn down We watched the sun burn down into cinders |

Down in a local bar Out on the boulevard The sound of an old guitar Is saving you from sinking It's a long way down It's a long way Back like you never broke You tell a dirty joke He touches your leg and thinks he's getting close For now you let him just this once Just for now And just like that - it's over [Chorus] Don't turn away Dry your eyes, dry your eyes Don't be afraid Keep it all inside, all inside When you fall apart Dry your eyes, dry your eyes Life is always hard for the belle of the boulevard In all your silver rings And all your silken things That song you softly sing - is keeping you from breaking It's a long way down It's a long way Back here you never loved You shake the shivers off You take a drink to get your courage up Can you believe it Just this once Just for now And just like that It's over [Chorus] Please hold on - it's alright Please hold on - it's alright Please hold on Down in a local bar Out on the boulevard The sound of an old guitar is saving you [Chorus x2] |

Well I know the trouble when the trouble starts.
I know the signals of a straying heart. I know the stirrings of a double-cross. I see suspicions arise around you. I know the chatter as it starts to creep. I know the walls as they ring and repeat. I know the secrets they were meant to keep. I see suspicions arise. It's a shame, I know, but it all shakes out real slow When the follies of your weekend hang like smoke onto your clothes. And the shame of it grows when you whisper it nice and low. But all the walls have ears my darling, and all bad things get known. And I know about you. I know about you. I know the ceiling when it starts to burn. I know the season when it starts to turn. And I know that the patterns that the wicked learn. And I see suspicions arise around you. I know the curtain and the way it falls. I know the burden and the pain it draws. I know you're sorry for something, But I don't know why. It's a shame, I know, but it all shakes out real slow When the follies of your weekend hang like smoke onto your clothes. And the shame of it grows when you whisper it nice and low (whisper it nice and low). But all the walls have ears my darling, and all bad things get known. And I know about you (I know about you). I know about you. It's a shame, I know, but it all shakes out real slow When the follies of your weekend hang like smoke onto your clothes. And the shame of it grows when you whisper it nice and low (whisper it nice and low). But all the walls have ears my darling, and all bad things get known. And I know about you. I know about you (I know about you). I know about you (I know about you). I know about you. |

I know that yesterday is gone and it won't come back to me
But I miss it after all it never really lasts as long as we'd meant for it to be There'll be twists and turns to pull at us and tear into the seams But I'll meet you where we started once again, cause I miss you Maybe we were right to carry on, to carry on Even when they said we'd be undone Take it as a sign we can still go on, we still belong Even when the worst is yet to come We're only waiting on the sun to clear away the haze Cause we can't see where we've gone from where we started Where we strayed and where we're meant to be There'll be ash and dust to bury us but I will keep you clean And I'll meet you where we started once again Maybe we were right to carry on, to carry on Even when they said we'd be undone Take it as a sign we can still go on, we still belong Even when the worst is yet to come And when tomorrow comes and we've shown everyone What they can never take away Maybe we were right to carry on, to carry on Even when they said we'd be undone Take it as a sign we can still go on, we still belong Even when the best is yet to come And when tomorrow comes and we've shown everyone What they can never take away |

I lay down, I cant sleep
My mind drums on repeat I stare at the ceiling from my side I reach out you're right there But you're lost in the details I wait for the end of a long night You can blame it on the changes I can take it any way it is Just got lost but we both found We need this more than ever can You take it can we save it Sink our teeth in tear away at it Can we hold out can you hold on Cause I need you more than you know now We play like we don't know We both lie but we don't show That something is changing between us We start out in one lane the same road The same name but something we cant see divides us You can blame it on the changes I can take it any way it is We just got lost but we both found We need this more than ever Can you take it can we save it Sink our teeth in tear away at it Can we hold out can we hold on Cause I need you more than you know now Cause I need you more than you know now Cause I need you more than you know now Don't run away cause I need you more than ever now Don't run away cause I need you more than ever now You can blame it on the changes I can take it any way it is We just got lost but we both found We need this more than ever Can you take it can we save it Sink our teeth in tear away at it Can we hold out can we hold on Cause I need you more than ever, Cause I need you more than you know now |

Even now I can smell the clothes
Freshly from the wash Still hot from the dryer Even now I can smell your skin As I wrap you in a towel Lay you on the bed And try to love you Even now I can feel your arms I can feel your breast I can hear your songs And I always can find you again Even now I can feel your hand Gently over mine With almost no weight at all Even now I can feel your eyes Watch me as I strum Much too late at night Even now I can see you smile I can hear you hum I can hear you sing And I always can find you again Even in the dark of night Even in the lowest light Even as the world outside Is spinning, and spinning Even now I can feel your hair Blow across my cheek As we sit in one of two chairs Even now I can feel your face Resting on my chest Wrestling for sleep And failing at it Even now I can see you sleep I can see you dream I can see you fly And I always can find you again And I always can find you again And I always can find you again |

From small pins to fiery burns,
These are the signals of my dying nerves Singed by the heat of your lines and curves Into a fire that could scorch the earth I'm going through the motions I'm going through the motions I'm going through 'em But I can't remember how to feel If this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical Oh if this is chemical Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science If this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses From small shocks to surgin' bolts These are the signals of my spinal post Sent down the wires through their lines and folds Into a riot on my frontal lobe I'm going through the motions I'm going through the motions I'm going through the motions I'm going through 'em But I can't remember how to feel Since I ran my hands over you Nothing else will ever do now To cool me down If this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical Oh if this is chemical Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science If this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses Since I ran my hands over you Nothing else will ever do Since I ran my hands over you Nothing else will ever do Since I ran my hands over you Nothing else will ever do now To cool me down. If this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical Oh if this is chemical Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science If this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical, Oh if this is chemical Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses of science If this is chemical If this is chemical If this is chemical If this is chemical I can't remember how to feel If this is chemical, If this is chemical, If this is chemical, If this is chemical, Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses of science |

I sit and wonder of your pause
What makes you so sure Our sins are not the start Of something holy, divine. I don't like the sound of this No news is bad news And all is quiet And all your looks Give no betrayal to what you shield or hide Wider walls have not protected Anything or anyone The way I will protect your burning heart I know your careful 'Cause I've been burned before And I know how it makes you careful And I know your symptoms Are complicated from holding against the impulse But if you're alone Are you lonely? Well you just don't have to be lonely Anymore I don't like the looks that About you There's no truth But all my doubt and all my trust Is no betrayal to what I feel inside Wider walls have not protected Anything or anyone The way I will defend your beating heart And I know your careful Cause I've been burned before And I know how that makes you careful And I know yours symptoms Are complicated from holding against the impulse But if you're alone Are you lonely? Well you just don't have to be lonely Anymore I sit and wonder of your thoughts What makes you so sure Our sins are not the start Of something holy, divine. I don't like the sound of this No news is bad news I don't like the sound of this No news is bad news I don't like the sound of this No news is bad news I don't like the sound of this No news is bad news |

There's things I know I should have mentioned sooner
But I didn't know how I'm sorry I lost you I never thought that this could come between us I know its water and bridges now But what's the sense in carrying around This weight, these words are tearing me apart And that's enough for the back to break That's enough for a mouth to take But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away And that's the sign of a solemn man I'll make the best of the best I can And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance That face, I know exactly what you're thinking But I'm certain this time is different And that's why I can't pretend that everything is mended I know I've tried to for too long now But what's the sense in carrying around This weight, these words are tearing me apart And that's enough for the back to break That's enough for a mouth to take But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away And that's the sign of a solemn man I'll make the best of the best I can And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance Oh save me from a gray life Oh save me from a gray life I paid the price with my soul Oh save me And that's enough for the back to break That's enough for a mouth to take But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away And that's the sign of a solemn man I'll make the best of the best I can And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance If I ever get my chance If I ever get my chance If I ever get my chance |

A line of strands to mark the trail.
No one said it would be easy. I must admit, I thought that risk was better waged in younger seasons. Years in the cold, burn in my throat. Everything I say burns like cinders. But it's hard to belong to a girl or a song, In the crease of a strangling winter. Strange to be lost Stranger still to be lone in the strings of a twisting line. Along the way the turns are sharp No one said they would be easy I must admit I thought the trip was better in younger seasons. But all these years in the pursuit made a man of a fool Till every word I say is on waver. Why it's hard to belong to a girl Or a song in the case of a selfish believer It's strange to be lost and stranger Still to be lone in the strings in a twisting line It's strange to be lost and stranger Still to be lone in the strings in a twisting line And when the path I have made from the grass to the grave I will love you still And when the sand turns to glass and all That's left is the past and I will love you still. |
