Something down the road didn't happen yet Something you'd forget Like that night in the shower You got that tattoo on your lower back you said you'd regret In a month or an hour Don't speak too soon You might lose your breath or your fear of death Or the way you went to your mother's house After you ran out on me while I was in the shower And I'm...Learn More

Never thought I'd end up here Stuck between ecstasy and fear Living in my aunt's apartment Eating leftovers, leaving at 3 pm Always thought I'd be a star Or know how to drive a goddamn car Brand new kitchen for my mom Lots of cats, a couple dogs I always thought I'd have more friends Or at least no one liked by them But they don't call me much and...Learn More

1, 2, 3, 4 Punching your fists on a wheel Saying it's fine, hold my hand, say you're mine Reflexes [?] my axe lovers words from your mouth Baby, I'm okay You're okay The song that plays on as the Titanic sinks The look in your eye when you're lost in your drink The anchors ain't sinking, we're drifting to sea When saying "I love you" becomes...Learn More

We started to lose you years ago It was subtle and slow How could we know? We held on to the pieces of you That shine like survivors in the wreckage To me and my purple heart Just seventeen, you were too young to see What your daddy was fighting for That was another war that took you away Though he begged you to say Cause he knew what his baby had...Learn More

[Verse 1] Hold on to your resolve And your leather book of lies you tell yourself to sleep at night I hope you choke on the smoke and the smog From your white lies and your pipelines You move mountains, but you're no God It's a vicious cycle, it's a cheap suit wearing Sisyphus You pushed the boulder up the hill and you don't care who it...Learn More

Mary Beth, she's got this way about her She can wave her hair and make him swoon Oh my Lord, he just can't stay without her She just smiles and adores him I try too hard and bore him Washing dishes in the kitchen like a desperate thing Watching as he takes her under his wing She is everything about me I don't like She shows me everything about me...Learn More

She's got the sound of Memphis The soul of old England The heart of American dreams The arms of a mother blessed The hips of a seamstress Who's sewing my heart to my sleeve She's not all that you want She's not all that you need But she's doing her best, she is doing her best She is not what she's not And she's not what she leaves you with She's...Learn More

In my head, I'm sitting on the inside looking out Your hand in mine I don't feel guilty I don't feel the doubt of a thousand restless wanderings Of could've beens and shoulds Feeling good about the things I think about In my head, you love me back In my head, you feel what I lack In my head, there is no afterthought No second guess, I'm sure...Learn More

I love you, you're so selfless I'm sorry, I'm so selfish I love that you're so gentle And I'm sorry I'm so hellish I love it when you hold me Cause I'm sorry, I'm in pieces And you put me back together And you make me feel what peace is Patience, and kindness, and softness of the touch And I scream, and I'm nasty And I'm brutal, and I'm rough But...Learn More
