Let's Begin 05:59
Everyday I used to sell All my sins to friends in hell Placed my bets on impossible dreams Ran off with the wind made new memories Drank the blood from my past lives Sang my songs all filled with lies Filled my head with LSD Decided I can be a king Let’s begin grab my hand and jump with me as long as we still can breathe i just wanna live baby Throw my gold down the well Still believe in fairy tails Kiss me once and i’ll come back A second chance is all i ask You and me are meant to be Even though time disagrees I wanna make it up to you Can you help me find our truth Let’s begin grab my hand and jump with me as long as we still can breathe i just wanna live baby Let’s begin grab my hand and jump with me as long as we still can breathe i just wanna live baby I just wanna live I just wanna live baby I just wanna live I just wanna live baby I just wanna live I just wanna live baby We are born then we die alone without no one Happiness you will find when you stop thinking you’ve won All we got is right now so baby can we have some fun Baby can we have fun We are born then we die alone without no one Happiness you will find when you stop thinking you’ve won All we got is right now so baby can we have some fun Baby can we have fun oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I set the table wrong Dull knives and bad songs I waited for your text You ghosted me instead Who does that shit it’s so tragic that summer was so cold You filled my head up with some love junk from a bad poem A different place a different time We could have made something bright Keep your eyes open you’re missing what’s in front of you Keep your eyes open you’re missing I’m in front of you Right in front of you I made a chocolate cake I poured the champagne I cleaned the blood stains So you wouldn’t see my pain I drank a bottle to numb my sorrow maybe I would forget I put my heart back in the freezer and I have no regrets A different place a different time We could have made something bright A different place a different time We could have made something bright Keep your eyes open you’re missing what’s in front of you Keep your eyes open you’re missing Keep your eyes open you’re missing what’s in front of you Keep your eyes open you’re missing Right in front of you Right in front of you

Cold Eyes 04:40
I finally got outside To catch up with friends Feel the sunshine And make amends Celebrate this life Before it ends But it got so complicated when you walked in Oh lover its so nice to see You standing right in front of me I only want to say hello But you just wave goodbye I only want to give you love But you show me cold eyes I only want to give you everything I couldn’t give you before I only want to say hello But you show me cold eyes I turned off my mind And sat in the dark I thought of the lies That got me in this funk I wanna do right I wanna move on But all I think about is our lost love Oh baby will you talk with me Maybe somehow you can set me free I only want to say hello But you just wave goodbye I only want to give you love But you show me cold eyes I only want to give you everything I couldn’t give you before I only want to say hello But you show me cold eyes I only want to say hello But you just wave goodbye I only want to give you love But you show me cold eyes I only want to give you everything I couldn’t give you before I only want to say hello But you show me cold eyes Cold eyes cold eyes cold eyes Cold eyes cold eyes cold eyes Cold eyes cold eyes cold eyes Cold eyes cold eyes cold eyes

Boy 04:37
Can you stop by i could use a friend Drink some liquid truth put my grief to an end I need to let it go, i need to try and spend More time loving myself stop this painful trend Boy you got me feeling I failed I didn’t win the gold Wouldn’t sell my soul Boy you got me feeling I’m scared Couldn’t climb as high But i always tried Winter’s here again it’s messing my head I can’t fall asleep without a 5th of gin I need someone to tell me i can win Oh my heart cries out it can’t lose again Boy you got me thinking I failed I didn’t win the gold Wouldn’t sell my soul Boy you got me feeling I’m scared Couldn’t climb as high But I always tried I won’t be your pawn Will you leave me alone I can feel you breathing down my neck Always haunting me waiting for me to slip I wont take you down if i ever fall I’m still a boy stuck with with some old bones Boy you got me thinking I failed I didn’t win the gold Wouldn’t sell my soul Boy you got me feeling I’m scared Couldn’t climb as high But I always tried I’m a good guy Boy you got me thinking I’m a good guy Boy you got me feeling

Distance 04:18
The distance won’t keep me from loving you I’ll just keep your picture by my bed Write you songs keep you fed With warm a plate filled with healing words That will soothe your aching soul Yes i really miss your touch How you kiss me rub me up damn your body turns me on Now i’m going through withdraw We didn’t see this coming at all But love I said love is our guarantee That you’ll find me yes you’ll find me waiting patiently The distance will never hold me back My love for you will stay on track A slow train coming Around the bend But this not our end You just keep yourself safe From false healers Saying Jesus saves Crooked leaders with their blind parade Marching themselves marching themselves Into a deep black hole But love I said love is our guarantee That you’ll find me yes you’ll find me waiting patiently I said love I said love is our guarantee That you’ll find me yes you’ll find me waiting patiently The distance won’t keep me from loving you I’ll just keep your picture by my bed Write you songs keep you fed With warm a plate filled with healing words That will soothe your aching soul

Photograph 03:43
I still don’t need you But I still dream of you Wearing a red Barrett Dancing my blues away I still keep your photograph In my favorite book Saves the page I read to you every night before we made love Before we made love Drunk off your lemonade Sweet like my memories Of walking the esplanade Past all the vacant graves I still check your Instagram Hoping you check back I know I’m not good for you but deep inside I wish you were back Yeah I wish you were back Whoa Never believed you When you said you loved me I could be evil Sabotage all our dreams I still keep your photograph In my favorite book Saves the page I read to you every night before we made love Before we made love Before we made love Before we made love Whoa Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Time oh time is barely moving Life oh life keeps me boozing I can dance I can sing I can make pretty things Over & over I can love i can hate i can deeply relate To feeling leftover Take a pretty picture Of your past life Put it in your pocket Take it out when its time Thank God for the lonely Living lonely lives like mine Thank God for the lonely All alone we can shine Forever oh forever is a long time Together oh together we will make it fly by I can rock i can roll i can show you my soul Put it all on the line I can dig in the dirt find treasure on this earth Love as my guide Yes we are alone But not so lonely Since we have each other On this small black screen Thank God for the lonely Living lonely lives like mine Thank God for the lonely All alone we can shine Thank God for the lonely Living lonely lives like mine Thank God for the lonely All alone we can shine We can shine Shine Shine Shine Thank God for the lonely Thank God for the lonely Thank God for the lonely Thank God for the lonely

Happy Hour 04:07
From four to seven I met my true love The regulars were thirsty Reading bibles sipping rum Through our addiction We found open hearts Who want to keep living Without carrying a cross This is our Happy Hour This is our Happy Hour We are high we are free So in love you and me This is our Happy Hour Old fashions and manhattans Keep our hands steady When I ask you dance You say only to Marvin Gaye I buy another round And hope I’m breaking ground Drunk love could be misleading When the night gives way to the sound of my heart going Boom boom boom boom boom boom This is our Happy Hour This is our Happy Hour We are high we are free So in love you and me This is our Happy Hour Woke up early morning She lying next to me My mouth feels like a desert My head so so heavy She slips out of bed Quietly gets dressed While opening the door to leave She says maybe i’ll see you again This is our Happy Hour This is our Happy Hour We are high we are free So in love you and me This is our Happy Hour Our Happy Hour

If You 04:05
If you give me stones I’ll turn them all into gold And ill build a home For you and me to grow If you share some seeds I will make sure we have trees Everyday we’ll climb Touch the bluest skies We got nothing left but each other We got nothing left but each other If you believe in me My love will carry you through this storm I’m stronger than you know I’m here to give you hope If you recognize This time is all we have right now Everything will change Everything will change We got nothing left but each other We got nothing left but each other Together we live Together we live Together we live If you see the sun That means better days will come Lover we are brave Lover its ok I feel you in my arms I’m never letting go again Never letting go
10.
Everyday I find another reason why to text you from my phone But I stop the impulse cause my heart might explode It’s not that I don’t want to check in and hear if your ok But hearing your ok somehow makes me not ok Keep stopping myself keep stopping myself from telling you How I really feel about you how i really feel about you You would think that after so many years I can move on without any tears But i’m drowning baby i’m drowning I thought that in this life I would get it right but i got so much wrong Love was just a piece of the pie that I let you eat to soon Trying to hard to grab a hold of something that’s not there But knowing its not there has me searching everywhere Keep stopping myself keep stopping myself keep stopping myself from telling you How I really feel about you how I really feel about you You would think that after so many years I can move on without any tears But I’m drowning baby I’m drowning You would think that after so many years I can move on without any tears But i’m drowning baby i’m drowning yeah I’m drowning I’m drowning baby seeI’m drowning Keep stopping myself Keep stopping myself Keep stopping myself Keep stopping myself

everything is easy with the wind at your back you always look so pretty and your wallets filled with cash living in a bubble away from all your friends your blood is getting thin doesn’t seem like you give a damn what do you do tomorrow when you can’t live today will you have to borrow some of my strength escaping from escaping til there’s no where else to go very long vacation from your very expensive soul your life was on a leash but your nobodies dog now your counting sheep can’t sleep as you grow old what do you do tomorrow when you can’t live today will you have to borrow some of my strength hope to see you one day Bathing in the sun you minds finally at ease And don’t have to run what do you do tomorrow when you can’t live today will you have to borrow some of my strength what do you do tomorrow when you can’t live today will you have to borrow some of my strength

Mend 04:01
If you ever need to mend Call me up please don’t pretend That you have your shit together You can’t always be so strong We all crash we all fall know your not alone I can listen to your heart Help you find your missing spark Be the light when it gets dark I’ve been there before I can give you lots of space Disconnect from this rat race Take a breath it will be ok Trust me I want nothing more When the pain goes way to deep And you can’t eat or sleep There’s hope inside the storm Let my love shine through you Won’t take long to get used to ill be waiting by the door I can listen to your heart Help you find your missing spark Be the light when it gets dark I’ve been there before I can give you lots of space Disconnect from this rat race Take a breath it will be ok Trust me I want nothing more Some days I might need you Some days you might need me Everyday we’re alive it’s alright I can listen to your heart Help you find your missing spark Be the light when it gets dark I’ve been there before I can give you lots of space Disconnect from this rat race Take a breath it will be ok Trust me I want nothing more
