Verse:
Me, You
That’s what I’ve been thinkin
But I
Turn blue
When I’m in the moment
You and your eyes
Blind me
So I’m strapped to the tracks
That I know
Can’t stop
Every time I think of you
I
Can’t walk
When you call
You pull me through the phone end
What am I to do
With these dreams
That are born?
Chorus: (x2)
Turn on yourself
Suffer the suspicions
Cause what me, what you’s-
without any kind of
Bad decisions

A knock on my door late at night
I must leave my world out of sight
I’m trapped by the heat that surrounds me
And no drop of rain stands to dowse me
All the flames start to spread the same
A spark, and no one in its way
Afraid of the memory
afraid for the past
I know where you’re taking me
just leave me in ash
I know you’re not nervous
But you say that you are
Are you fibbing on purpose?
How’s it going so far?
This is no time to resurface
Every little old scar
This is the time to be human
Cause your house is on fire
A flicker in my curtains
Of orange so bright
There’s no time to sleep
And even less to be alive
There’s no time to gather up
The things that you love
It’s just another day
Only this time you run
Over the hillside
There’s water ashore
So head to the beach
If you’ve been there before
And count yourself lucky
that your love’s still alive
(improvised: there's some there that aren't
and their love is to die)
I know you’re not nervous
But you say that you are
Are you fibbing on purpose?
How’s it going so far?
This is no time to resurface
Every little old scar
This is the time to be human
Cause your house is on fire

Much To You (remastered)

Verse:
In my eyes, you see a man
Who lives selfishly in doubt
And the land in which he resides
Comes with some, then goes without
He is conscious of the middle
And he plays his heart with class
Everyone remembers the decks
But the nails he’s hammered in have caused a clash
Underneath this dry Alberta heat
He’ll be inside, where he’s from
Inhale until tears run down
Yeah. that’s how you know you’ve won
He doesn’t like to wait
but has a lack of motivation
It seems as though the wake and bake
has become apart of his every creation
Chorus:
(Ooo)
Does it really mean that much to you
(Ooo)
Had I not been near would I be fighting through?
Verse:
It was cloudy all day yesterday
And the same the day before
I’ve convinced myself that paradise
has forgotten of our discord
You know I think your right
But you need to hear me say
I have given up my arms
I must surrender to, any of your every charms
Chorus:
(Ooo)
Does it really mean that much to you
(Ooo)
Had I not been near would I be fighting through?

Somethin
Was telling me
To try again
Then I
Shut it down
For no good reason
I don't know why
But I know I'd do it again
It may very well be-
The worst-decision I've ever made
But I guess he'll never know
He didn't lean in
Any time
You give me
Is worth the plight
But when
time goes past
I find myself awake all night
You’re still in my eyes
You still cross my mind
Maybe it wouldn’t matter
If my shots weren’t so blind
But I guess he’ll never know
He’s running out of sight
But I guess he’ll never know
He didn’t lean in
(break)
Somethin

But I guess he'll never know

Chorus :
Oh
Don't they lose their appeal
When the hunt and the steal
Is over
Oh
You're just coming to you're own
Don't you throw that dog a bone
He'll be coming back
Even if he's bruised and he's sore
Even if you just ignore him over
Oh
Don't they sparkle and they shimmer
When the underdog's a winner now
Verse 1 :
I’ve greased the wheels
On my own damn problems
Now i've got a hand of man's tools
Is there some-one
On the passenger side
Who you know is breaking all the rules^
I am torn
In a friend, you depend on me
But I think you oughtta know
If we stay
Here tonight
I’ll just make it a fight
So let’s head on home
Bridge:
I know It's me and not you
The reason for what I'm going through
I can only find the truth in the blame of someone else
My eyes are known for telling lies
Growing ever so suspicious of your cries
Growing ever so suspicious
of the ones that hang around you
Chorus:
Oh
Don't they lose their appeal
When the hunt and the steal
Is over
Oh
You're just coming to you're own
Don't you throw that dog a bone
He'll be coming back
Even if he's bruised and he's sore
Even if you just ignore him over
Oh
Don't they sparkle and they shimmer
When the underdog's a winner now
(Solo)
Verse 2 :
If i'll be true
I am blessed
That its you, love
Who had the time
To hang around
I couldn't help
but feel up
when all the times, I recall
you seemed to put me down
But today I wore a dessert-covered shirt
That remembered all the times we had
Ain’t it funny how the light
Shined on somebody
makes me smile
And inside makes me sad
Bridge:
I know It's me and not you
The reason for what I'm going through
I can only find the truth in the blame of someone else
My eyes are known for telling lies
Growing ever so suspicious of your cries
(Key change)
(Full Chorus)

Small Talk
04:25
|
|||
Picture
A charisma
Built on
Love me
Such a
Harmless Factory
Imagine
Your reaction
When the
Lies hurt
And the truth stings badly
Wisdom
Built on
Rhy-thm
And the lone sons
Are a soon to be tragedy
Reach down for your weapons
Leave your choices
To the writers of history
Chorus:
So much for small talk
I beg for your touch
Maybe, you’ll will hear this
I’m yours, you’re my crutch
He don’t just want love
So much for small talk
I beg for your touch
Maybe, you’ll will hear this
I’m yours, you’re my crutch
He don’t just want love
Maybe, you will see it
Verse:
I’m putting all my money on red
Just in case someday that’s a where it will land
I set the bill to the flame
And light my cigarette
Because it makes me feel good
You ain’t gotta respect it
I’m a one of many
And a one of few
You was looking for heaven
I were looking for clues
Never looking for love
Never looking for shoes
You’re my shining pretty penny
And You’re on the loose
Chorus:
So much for small talk
I beg for your touch
Maybe, you’ll will hear this
I’m yours, you’re my crutch
He don’t just want love
So much for small talk
I beg for your touch
Maybe, you’ll will hear this
I’m yours, you’re my crutch
He don’t just want love
Maybe, you will see it
Breakdown:
Is it possible to say
That I didn’t get enough?
I left your hoodie by the road
But I still have the duck
Is it possible to say
That you didn’t count it up?
I left those visions behind
But I’m still living rough
Is it possible to say
That I didn’t get enough?
I left your hoodie by the road
But I still have the duck
Is it possible to say
That you didn’t add it up?
I left that hatred behind
But I’m still living rough
