Afraid To Hold

V. I'm Afraid, of knowing too much
About the world and how its supposed to work
-Its the little things, that scare me the most
Like quality, principles, and worth
-I search myself, i'm a nervous wreck
Am I gonna grow up to find somebody else
-I Have love in my life, I have dreams and uncertainties
But Im not afraid of rejection at all.
C. Its the past thats got me worried
What the future's gonna hold
In my days i'm living my fears
In my nights Im holding em' in
-Its the past thats got me worried
What the future's gonna hold
Im crossfaded on repetition
My heart is getting old
- Its the past thats got me worried
What the future's gonna hold
In my days i'm living my fears
In my nights Im holding em' in

Overturned

V. Pictures only in my head
Will a camera lens remember this
-Worried about money when I should rest
How can I sleep when Im at my best
V2. Makes no difference stay the same
-Making all my enemies my friends
Trust a smile that guards a frown
-A friend in need will let you down
C. Familiar faces
Christian Names
What If's on my plate again
Understand me
To know is to love
You don't smile
So I don't Trust you too much
B. But, I should've learned
Ya gonna be, constantly,
overturned like dirt
But have learned
Ya gonna be, consistently
overturned.

Desert Song
05:13
|
|||
V. Ever since I was conscious enough
I've questioned all I believed in
I thought that I was born in
The wrong time, the wrong place
And probably should be
C. Riding out of town
On Horse back
With nothing but dust and lost love
Behind me, the sun is setting
On a day that i've written down on a page
And forgotten
- No matter the cost of anything
I won't consider it again.

Along The Way
03:36
|

- Im not too sure about it
Im not too sure about it now.
V. We were married
For most of my life
-I can't take care of you no more
Im bound to die
-MS in the thirties
Picking up glass
-You rode a painted horse named China Girl
And I haven't Looked Back
C. And when its over
At least I can say
I took care of you
Along the way
-Im not too sure about it
Im not too sure about it now.

Swimmer's Ear
05:19

V. When you realize
Your well has run dry here
Take a plunge, into the nearest river
Open your eyes, underwater
Take a breath, let it in
V2. I've been asking, all the wrong questions
Got an answer, I forced out
Burning Bridges, ain't what Im made of
Keeping up, learning to swim
C. Quickly you'll see
Drowning to breath
God is a river
Controlling a flood
Im just debris
Washing Away
Down with the current
That's stronger than me.

Far From This
04:47

V. I don't know what happiness sounds like
But it can't be far from this
-It's got such a ring to it
And it can't be hard to miss
-Out of everything You've ever heard
what makes you feel alive
-Is It really the sound that catches you
Identifying what's inside.
V2. I don't know what happiness looks like
I could only catch a glimpse
- In the corner of my gaze
my hopes and dreams could never fade
-Out of everything I've ever seen
What makes me realize
- The windows to your soul are open
letting in the light
PreCh. But, if I ever wake up
From this Dream Im in
Will there be happiness
Under my Skin
C. Well its time you made up with all of your friends
You built that shit back end over end
-And Its time you quit smokin' cigarettes
When Theres smoke in your brain you always forget
-And Its time you gave up, being so sad
I can't take it like that, I can't Make it like that
-And I don't wanna die
So old Ive forgotten what its like to be Alive
(Last Tag)
- Will there be happiness, emitting from within

Looking Glass
05:09
|

V. Say it with your eyes
I can't fathom what your heart must feel(look) like
My future's shorter than our past
But I can't trust myself behind a looking glass
C. And I ask myself, where will you be when
Twenty Three come creepin' around
I can't believe my eyes
Where will you be
I can only see so far
Where will you be when it comes apart

Still With Me
04:17
|

V. I wrote a song when I was 15
Don't play it now, but its still with me
It was about girls, my granddad, and self esteem
They're all gone now, but its still with me
V2. I look back on such a simple time
Standing around, waiting in lines
My uncle Told Me just before he died
I dreamed of heaven, it was everything I like
PreCh. Isn't that such a beautiful thought
Like a song, in heaven, you can have anything you want
And even though its just a dream
If I died tonight, at least I'd sing
C. Im not afraid of death, but i'm ok with a new start
If you don't hear the words at least I got to play my part
And the Melody keeps telling me Im not good enough for this
A dream is just a dream but its this song I can't forget.
