Hourglass 02:33
I got one bottle down A bottle left to go Cutting through the moonlight sharp and slow Is the silence of inaction And the cards you'll never show Another back and forth Another "I don't know" When all I ever needed was a simple yes or no I got one bottle down A bottle left to go Something warm to bleach my bones And wash my dirty soul Another day and night Another hour or two It's never been about what you say It's always what you do I can't make up your mind Indecision has rendered me blind All this time ain't free Little hearts they wait for me Little hands I long to hold in mine But I can't make up your mind

Have you ever even played at taking care of her? Has she ever seemed real comfortable at all? Make mistakes Make excuses Make a drink or Make a mess But you'll never make a friend Can't let the neighbors see your house a hole Throw drinks and dirty jokes until they smile Not your problem Not your issue Not concerned and Not your fault But they vanish one by one But they vanish one by one One last excuse Led out of the cell with only footsteps to the noose And you're waiting for your stay But that's not happening today Here's your waitress Here's your tab Time to pay

You can sit alone and wonder How the current dragged you under Sing your songs of how we all owe you your due You can dirge in desperation Think of every complication And the reasons why shit isn't up to you Now I choose to be defiant Uncontrolled and noncompliant Cause the world don't owe me anything at all And if things don't go as planned I'll pull back my bitten hand And realize I put myself against the wall Own what you do Own what you don't Shit will either work out or it won't It ain't do or die But your biggest lie Is your life is someone else's to control Eat what you kill Your futures still unknown It might be so goddamn sweet Or bitter to the bone Eat what you kill Your futures all your own It might be so goddamn sweet Or bitter to the bone

Mockingbirds 02:29
Never wanted anything til now A rusted heart left in the yard That someone finally found For now you gotta hide that stuff away Maybe sometime you and me can fix it up someday And the booze I've used to douse this fire Has only made shit worse You are both my blessing and my curse For now I'll watch you live by others' leave With calloused words and mockingbirds That no one should believe All that you could give me was that smile And kitten I'm gonna make sure that it lasts a long long while And the booze I've used to douse this fire Has only made shit worse You are both my sickness and my cure You put your little hand in mine Like a spark in gasoline It blossomed up into the dark Like we ain't ever seen So kitten grab up all you can 'cause it's time to leave this town I'll pick you up on my way out And won't ever put you down I'll never put you down

Wasted days, wasted nights All was bitter and contrite I don't want to ever breathe or feel or ever Act that way again All is gold, all is new Let's stop staring at our shoes Let's just breathe this passive bullshit from The bottom of our lungs Straighten up, straighten out It's all benefit no doubt So just kiss me on my mouth let's buy A round for this whole bar Don't walk ahead, or lag behind I need you right here by my side With our heads up and chins out and Hearts on fire We don't need no map home And we don't need no scapegoats Our light of a thousand suns I broke it off with apathy The bitch was just no good for me and Our light of a thousand suns Outshines everyone Heads up Chins out Hearts on fire We don't need no map home And we don't need no scapegoats Our light of a thousand suns I broke it off with apathy The bitch was just no good for me Our light of a thousand suns When I'm with you then I'm at home Got no problem keeping warm with Our light of a thousand suns When I'm with you then I'm at home Never leave this heart alone Our light of a thousand suns Outshines everyone
