I'll Always Be Around (2011)

Love is a river that flows through the soul straight to the heart of mare
And our love forever lives deep in the palm of God's hands

Just as my heart woke, it beat for you
Just as my mouth spoke, it spoke for you


Forever in love
Forever in love with you
Forver in love
Perfectly able and born to be true
Forever in love with you

Forever is not some measure of time
Don't matter how long you live
It's a promise where one, even after we're gone
'Til nothing on earth will exist

Just as my eyes saw, I saw you
Just as my legs walked, I followed you

Forever in love
Forever in love with you
Forever in love
Perfectly able and born to be true
Forever in love with you

Only in love
Only in love

Just as my heart beat, I prayed for you
I answered I will always wait for you

Forever in love
Forever in love
Forever in love
Forever in love

Forever in love
Forever in love with you
Forever in love
Perfectly able and born to be true
Forever in love with you

I'll Always Be Around (2011)

I got a little place back home with the parents and a warm bed
I got a little girl back there but she doesn't seem to know it yet
I should be holding my tongue, oh I gotta let her know
That I got a good girl on a good day


We got a little place downtown where we all go to think
I like sitting out back with the boys while the friends all share the drinks
I sure love coming back home for a, for about a week
'Cause I've got a good town on its good days

And I want to know when I go back home Imma have somebody
And I want to know what it feels like when you don't need nobody else
Gotta go back home
Gotta go home to know
That I've got a good life, it's a good day 

Someday Imma come back home with a '65 Corvette
I'll race my dad's Satellite, orange beats candy apple red
I'll make my momma so proud with the, with the girl I met
'Cause I got a good town on its good days

And I want to know when I go back home Imma have somebody
And I want to know what it feels like when you don't need nobody else
Gotta go back home
Gotta go home to know
That I've got a good life, it's a good day 

Down the road, I'll pack my things I'm going home
I'm tired of living life without you
I gotta go home tonight
I want to go home tonight

And I want to know when I go back home Imma have somebody
And I want to know what it feels like when you don't need nobody else
Gotta go back home
Gotta go back home
Cause I've got a good girl, it's a good day
Oh I've got a good town, it's a good day
Oh I've got a good life, it's a good day

Be Human Ep (2010)

Theres a hole In my heart
which you used to get your air
It wont beat again for at least another year
You cut it out yourself, so you wont suffocate in there
Your patience is losing to your fear
I lost her

 
When collecting angels come
I will rush to find your prayers
They're buried in the closet under the stairs
 

under boxes of my dreams
and the clutter of my fears
my selfishness is probably why they're here
and i kept digging my own grave
Im close to 30 miles deep
I can taste the other side and it isn't pretty
and i left my lover in a bottle
and i threw it out to sea
as soon as she left my fingertips I prayed she come back to me
come back to me baby
 

I lost her
I lost her
I lost her
I lost her
I lost her
I lost her
I lost her
 

I will never stitch the hole you cut
In hopes that you will return to me
I will work to be a man yes you will see
yes I will work to be your man yes you will see

Be Human Ep (2010)


Vulture, you're cold, the shark of a maple
Searching for prey by the beat of our hearts
Forgetting your love is the mark of the angel
You'll follow the trail of blood,
To our shaking bones hidden in the attic
We lose to your guns

But you still have my love, you still have my love
You still have my love, one thing I'll ask is enough
Just don't say a word, but darling be human
Darling be human

Yeah

I'm a candle in the dark, riding hopefully to family 
I've been wonderin' where you are and it you'll get this, I don't know
Sneakin' through the park past the soldier in the canopy
Gotta move, gotta get out
 

But you still have my love, you still have my love
You still have my love, one thing I'll ask is enough
Just don't say a word, but darling be human
Darling be human

Does she know what she means to me
A soft shadow of the apple in my tree

I watch for eyes, the owl's on my shouler
He'll be there for life, he can watch over me
True love exists, it is out there, I am sure of it
You'll find your peace

But you still have my love, you still have my love
You still have my love, one thing I'll ask is enough
Just don't say a word, but darling be human
Darling be human

Be Human Ep (2010)

I swear the moon don't hang 'round like it used to babe
The sun from far away gets brighter every time
I got a feeling like the moon curled up right next to you
Saw the lovin' that you do and let the world unwind

We don't know just what to do with it (what to do with it)
We don't know just what to do


Chorus:
I like it when she sings to me
Soft like singin' with the birds and bees
You can put her right next to me
'Cause there's where we belong, my baby
You can catch her on the boulevard
Stoppin' my heart and all the passing cars
Keeping me young, puttin' life on hold
I'm singing, oh thank heaven she's so beautiful

She likes listen while I stop this train
Just the way we like it while it's pouring rain
And I tell by the way she moves that she don't play that game
Yeah she's mine, all mine
Can't be wasting time
Just looking at anyone else but her
She's never gonna leave my mind

She don't know what to do with it (what to do with it)
We don't know just what to do

Chorus

I couldn't find the reason why
Why I should be looking at the other ones in line
I'll try to be kind
And not lose my mind
So I don't ever lose you

Chorus

Oh thank heaven, she's so beautiful

Early Love Ep (2008)

I'm asked to walk her to her car at night
That's my job when it's dark outside
But what she really wants is to be by my side
I'm her blanket when it's five degrees
It's so cold, we can see when we breathe
What she really wants is to be next to me


I'll be her shelter while we wait for our cab standing in the rain
And it never seems to bother me 

And I'm not giving in, you're not calling it quits
We have it too good now
And we, oh we love it how
I've been looking for,
you've been waiting for somebody just like this

And we have it now
And we make it easy somehow

Oh, she's my music when I'm trying to sleep
When I forget the words, she knows everything 
What I really want is to hear her sing
She's my feet when I cannot dance
She just loves it and she doesn't laugh
What I really love, she says I'm not so bad

You're the one who keeps the two of us from going overboard 
I can see that you are good for me
And we're the ones who changed love to what it used to be
So simple, so sweet

I don't want to let you go
Something I should know
I don't want to let you go anymore

I'm not giving in, you're not calling it quits
We have it too good now
I've been looking for, you've been waiting for somebody just like this
And we have it now
And we make it easy somehow

I'm not giving in, you're not calling it quits
We have it too good now
And we, oh we love it how
I've been looking for, you've been waiting for somebody just like this
And we have it now
And we make it easy somehow
And we make it easy somehow

Early Love Ep (2008)

you look like the afternoon
when you wake at 6 in the morning
ready right then, and we're kids again
you look like a sunny day
when I look outside and it's storming
when you look at me
and blink so slowly


everything you do makes it easy to fall in love with you 
now, now, don't give me the run-around
with everything you do I just can't seem to get over you honey
now, now, don't give me the run-around

I love when she writes for me
and she doesn't even play the piano
she plays it so good, better than I could
our love gets better everyday
with every touch and sound that your voice makes
how did we get here?
it's better than last year

so tell me now, tell me how I got so lucky, my dear

everything you do makes it easy to fall in love with you 
now, now, don't give me the run-around
with everything you do I just can't seem to get over you honey
now, now, don't give me the run-around

don't think twice
don't ask why
we have got to do these crazy things sometimes
we'll be fine, just realize that everything's alright
we are out of our minds

Hold your breath, little lungs
The tide is holding us beneath
I am the sky and you are the sea
You are the one who colors me


Oh, I bet I'll never know
(The one who colors me)
I bet we'll never know

We've got each other figured out
Whoa
We've got each other figured out
So what do we do here?
So what do we do here?

Well, bless your soul 
I can tell by the pretty way you look at me
I'm not leaving you
I bet we'll never know
You can tell your eyes anything you want to
I'm not seeing through

Love, love, love me
Love me patiently
Love me honestly
Love, love, love me
Love me baby 

So what do we do here?
So what do we do here?
And now my fear of love is far too much
Is gone in you, my dear
So what do we do here?
And now you're coming around

She see's something in me, that I have never seen.
It compliments my life but I don't know what that means.
And how can you say, you don't want to bother here?
There's too much suspense and not enough outcome.


She has a broken heart,
I haven't seen a heart like that since my old one.
And now is the time to start over,
if her heart will let me, and good thing its empty.
cause we need to fit come love in there.

I heard she's taking over, but time can only tell
You can't hold love in a broken heart, and she isnt doing well.

How can you say you don't bother here?
There's too much strees and not enough outcome.

She has a broken heart,
I haven't seen a heart like that since my old one.
And now is the time to start over,
if her heart will let me, and good thing its empty.

You said it to me once or twice tonight.
I'll be the first to call your name.
If I die tonight,
I want your name written on my grave.
Just go, let it go.
You know now it's not a race.
But don't let me know.


I'm ready when you are,
Take me home.
You know I shouldn't be alone.
Tell me whether I'm right,
But tell it to my face tonight.

With everything I do
(And everything you see)
How can you put up with me?
And I shouldn't do
Half the things I don't want you to see.
And I shouldn't be here alone tonight.
So just bring me home alright.
So I can see you.

I'm ready when you are,
Take me home.
You know I shouldn't be alone.
Tell me whether I'm right,
But tell it to my face tonight.

I'm ready when you are.
(I'm ready when you are)
You know I shouldn't be alone.
Tell me whether I'm right,
But tell it to my face tonight.

I'm ready when you are,
(I'm ready when you are)
You know I shouldn't be alone.
Tell me whether I'm right...

I'm ready when you are,
Take me home.
You know I shouldn't be alone.
Tell me whether I'm right,
But tell it to my face tonight.

and i am war after ten years of fighting
i am there after every time you hear bad news
i am not a flame with seven years of lighting
and i need you just like they do
i am windows breaking in the airplanes
where nothing comes out quite how it was meant to
i am what you're feeling in your neck veins


did you get to feel him near?
did you get too fond of losing sleep my dear?

i am more invisible than you could ever be
i am what you wanted and you're everything i need
if you think i'm so terrible then you are not aware see
i'm better this way

i am what you're feeling when you're nervous
i am what you're hearing when you walk away
but better music is giving me a purpose
and we want this so bad
you are the only thing that just might save me
oh, the thought of it just makes me crazy
why did you have to be so persuading?

you've got to get away
you're running after your name
i think i'll do the same
and get you out of this town

temper, temper!
she's not fighting, but her pulse is saying otherwise.
they couldn't find her heartbeat, 
when you knocked her off her feet.
death walked grinning with his broken wings,
and pointing fingers at the chosen ones.
i've never met him, but the dead have met him once.


the only thing left in you is a skeleton,
oh no you did it again.
just give a little laughter,
how you gonna stop us now?

cops and robbers, side by side,
calling, "how we gonna stop this."
was it ever worth it?
you won't need your guns for this.

we've been listening to music,
we'll have them by somewhere safer,
(we'll never use it),
somewhere else.

love, your love, your love is finding itself sort of enough,
for us to put us back together.

and you believe anything your lyrics tell you
and you believe anything your favorite singer sings you
but i've been listening


and you believe everything you see on tv
and try to live your life like a movie
but i've been watching

i saw fire burning buildings
the poor taking money from the willing
when they ask you say you like it cause its thrilling
i always wished that you would listen
i blame the television

so why won't you take it from me

i saw fire burning buildings
the poor taking money from the willing
when they ask you say you like it cause its thrilling
i always wished that you would listen
i blame the television

you can fly
i will never die
you can do anything you want to if you try
i am a robot and you're an alien
i've been lieing to you but you believed it
