Counting on
A little more
Fumbling through the front door
But it’s okay
If you stay
Ground is hard
See the stars
Here we are
You think you’ve got something to say
The differences in night and day
Or black and gray
Could have broken something
Could have had a decent start
Staring at the blacktop
Hoping just to see your car
Guess I learned a lesson
Guess it’s backwards again
Pointing out
The seeds that grew
Tiniest plants you never knew
And that’s alright
You can stay the night
Show me how
You’re different now
You think you sound
Like someone who might try again
Assuming I would let you in
Or just be friends
Could have broken something
Could have had a decent start
Staring at the blacktop
Hoping just to see your car
Guess I learned a lesson
Guess it’s backwards again
Holding onto nothing
Letting go forever
Over and over again
Sitting in the sandbox
Waiting for a parent
To tell us how this old story ends
Walk in the summer
Forget the umbrella
You’re mad when I say
Let the rain wash away, let the rain wash away
Counting on
A little more
Fumbling through the front door
But it’s okay
If you stay

It's All in my Head
03:44

It took a while, in my head
Through the thick and the thin and the things that she said
Could it be something more?
With my pride in my pocket and my eyes on the floor
Were you there? Were you listening?
Were you seething over the lines that she was giving me?
I guess, I guess I’ll try, to get around, get around, get around
This time, do it right, say no, a big fight, my side, cell phone's dead
Darling, darling, it’s my head, it’s a mess, yeah
And I’ll speak up next time 'cause you know what’s best
If I know me though, I’ll let it go
Stay, with your eyes, on the edge of all the things I used to see
It’s not for me (It's not for me!), no not for me (No, not for me!)
So I’m gone, you gotta get it, got it going on
With a swell of emotion, now I’m feeling dirty
Got lost in the ocean at not even thirty
And I can see why they think I’ll get sicker
But you think I’d be fine if my skin was just a bit thicker (Maybe just a little bit thicker)
This time, do it right, say no, a big fight, my side, cell phone's dead
Darling, darling, it’s my head, it’s a mess, yeah
And I’ll speak up next time 'cause you know what’s best
If I know me though, I’ll let it go
I’m bad at this though, I know, yeah I know
Oh

Circles

I need something to get over this, something more than anything
Tried my best to get around, but I'm always short on everything
I’m so bored by all these jobs, but I know I've got it rough
Tell my hand, I'm moving up, but I know, it's not enough
Rain at night, put in all the hours, and now I’m fading out
If I could only walk in circles just a little bit longer
I’d probably find my way home
Twisted, broken, dented by the wind, I’m howling up a storm
Tender, raw, and begging to get in, at least I was before
Broken glass, now I’ll atone, but I know, who wants to stay
Streetlight, can’t you get me home, but I know, we fade away
Rain at night, put in all the hours, and now I’m fading out
If I could only walk in circles just a little bit longer
I’d probably find my way home
Tried my best, I guess I know that it’s just not good enough
I’m tempting fate because I can, and when I fall
I’ll let you call to take me somewhere safe

Why Aren't You Listening

You gotta let it go
You’ve seen the sunrise
Through open windows
And through new eyes
And you were okay
I’m on the concrete
You didn’t hesitate
When you could let me in
In these pockets, you got a lot of room so I can settle down
Throw me some change and I’ll try to get home
You got to thinking
When it was dark out
The stars were blinking
And there was less doubt
Do you remember
In Colorado
You had a new life
Before you let me in
In these pockets, you got a lot of room so I can settle down
Throw me some change and I’ll try to get home
Yeah, and on the way down, it’s all gold and broke
On the way down, it’s all gold and it’s all broken
So far, so good, so what now?
So far, so good, so what now?
So far, so good, so what now?
So far, so good, so what now?
Oh
