Over It 03:31
"Over It" It's fine it's cool It's no big deal Just think you should know how I feel And you're a fool 'Cause Let's be real It takes time for wounds to heal And if I'm being honest I wouldn't say I'm great I hope you give me second thoughts You make me die and that's okay I can't hide away The mess I started And I'll drive away A little more broken hearted I'll start to fall apart Until I’m departed And now I'll keep my heart A little more closely guarded I'll get over it I'll get over it I'll get over you And I'll be moving on real soon This time it's cool I understand 'Cause these things never go to plan You don't give me a second thought I'll carry on I hope I can And of course it started raining And I start to decay And of course I'm here complaining 'Cause now I'm dying every day I can't hide away This mess I started And I'll drive away A little more broken hearted I'll start to fall apart Until I'm departed And now I'll keep my heart A little more closely guarded I'll get over it I'll get over it I'll get over you And I'll be moving on real soon I'll get over it I'll get over it I'll get over you And I'll be moving on real soon Get over it Get over it Get over it Get over it Get over it Get over it And I'll be moving on real soon Get over it Get over it Get over it Get over it Get over it Get over it

Easy 03:27
"Easy" Sometimes It feels like God Designed My whole life to keep me awake at night And frustrate Kinda like the split second in time where its on the tip of your mind But you forget what you’re gonna say Its like I spend Every hour And all day Trying to stay awake But I ain’t And trying not to wake up late Some days I swear i think the city wants to punch me in the face And even though I’m finally free Im all alone and now it’s just me It’s been a long time since I could just breathe Just take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Just take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Yeah yeah I’m looking for somewhere I can be Where the temperature is less than a hundred and three I could use a couple less degrees Cuz I been burning up in the heat I might be dying Cuz the city is on fire Deaths cousin has abandoned me I lack what I require Circumstances dire I been living to the wire And I’m tired If I say I’m chill Then I’m a liar And even though I’m finally free Im all alone and now it’s just me It’s been a long time since I been asleep Just take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me
3.
Honestly 02:45
"Honestly" Growing pains and Sweatshirt stains Hanging off of your bed frame Are we in this together? Honestly Be honest with me Honestly And I miss you at night When it's quiet Try to fight what's not right But despite I'm scared to be in the dark alone with no light We'd beat ourselves up when we forgot to say goodnight But now when we forget it doesn't stay on our minds Watching TV, vanilla tea, and coffee, I'd get excited when you'd text me But now texts and tea are just routine Honestly Be honest with me Honestly Remember when I made you hot chocolate And I got mad cause you didn't want it

"It's a Dangerous Business (Going out Your Door)" Keep the fire while I’m inside I’ll not be a minute We’ve lost the light But it’s still bright We’ll put it out when we are finished And O I know I couldn’t leave you alone I hope You know I’m always comin home The air is sweeter here I found love and hate And longing here my dear The birds sing winter's song And come the flames of fall And the time that we loved wasting Is not wasted at all And though I’m poor What’s mine is yours I’ve got no change But we always find a way In your backyard With our guitars There’s always room for more Well we could stop the car Just to stare up at the stars We never get too lost 'cause we never get too far And O I know I couldn’t leave you alone I hope You know I’m always comin home The air is sweeter here I found love and hate And longing here my dear The birds sing winter's song And come the flames of fall And the time that we loved wasting Is not wasted at all Something that I was taught But not so much I’ve found Was If you listen punk rock You’re supposed to hate you’re town And I never wonder how The friendships that I found Will all still be around Though we leave The Shire for now And the air is just a little more clear In the trees and lakes and fields And mountains here The streams sing summer's melody And come the days of spring When we’ve wasted all our time We haven’t wasted anything The air is sweeter here I found love and hate And longing here my dear The birds sing winter's song And come the flames of fall And the time that we loved wasting Is not wasted at all And though I left an empty room I’ll be home before too soon Strap on your skateboard shoes We’ve got so much time to lose

"Broken Ones & Cynics" Said the boy I don't need anyone else I can take on the world All by myself I'll work and I'll fight You'll never put out my light I'll never Put my dreams on the shelf They said The world is all filled With sold out critics And broken ones and cynics But you can be anyone you want But the boy knew That they didn't t mean it I've already seen it That's not what they really want Grow up and get a job Don’t be such a lazy slob You've got responsibility Don't move off to the city You should Be realistic I don't think you should risk it You should Always have a backup plan When you're old you'll understand He said I don't need anyone else I can take on the world All by myself And I'll work and I'll fight You'll never put out my light I'll never put my dreams on the shelf Lays awake all night But he's dreaming And he's in the spotlight And everyones screaming And the people who told him You can't do it were wrong And five years along the world knows his songs He said I don't need no job Say goodbye to dad and mom Damn responsibility I'm moving to the city If I’m being realistic I know I have to risk it Never have a backup plan The rest of you can't understand I don't need anyone else I can take on the world All by myself And I'll work and I'll fight You'll never put out the light I'll never put my dreams on the shelf He thinks he knows everything 'Cause he's got a plan And some songs to sing And he thinks he don't need no one 'Cause he's different Just like everyone Well The world was all filled With the ruthless critics And broken ones and cynics Who never got what they wanted One more boy Who settled up and settled down His dreams keep him awake And they haunt him It's all for the best When you're just like the rest You'll find you have nothing to fear Threw his capo away 'Cause he forgot how to play He hasn't touched his guitar for years

Anyway 03:48
"Anyway" My eyes are shut Ben's arm around my neck All I hear Is the silence in the space between breaths Collective sigh Eyes shut tight And yesterday's So far away I know you don't believe in god But anyway I pray He won't take you away And I know you don't believe in heaven Anyway I pray I'm staring at the floor Cedars head against my own I won't pretend to know how scared you are Don't face this alone Collective sigh Eyes shut tight And yesterday's So far away I know you don't believe in god But anyway I pray He won't take you away And I know you don't believe in heaven Anyway I pray We're right here to take your hand You'll make it through I know you can Until then I'll be right here Thinking of you I know you don't believe in god But anyway I pray He won't take you away And I know you don't believe in heaven Anyway I pray

Hoodie 03:09
"Hoodie" You never liked taking my clothes I said “it’s cold” She said I've got my own" I wanna rush back to you It’s just us We’re on YouTube you can pick the videos I’m too tired to choose And my phone is gonna die soon won’t go to sleep until it do Ill stay awake For you I’ll stay up with you I'll stay up with you I never liked playin your card games Or callin your dad by his first name Lean on me while you fade away We could live on the couch today We never seem to stay awake anyway I wanna rush Back to her Open up my arms and I’ll let you fall back in again I’ll keep you safe and warm And I'm gonna have to go soon Don’t fall asleep until I do I’ll stay awake For you I’ll stay up with you I'll stay up with you I’ll stay up with you I never like when you leave I’m not sure how to be At least you have my hoodie Even if you don’t have me

"The Salt Air & the Tide" And the rain falls soft upon the fields Ere I go outside And you forgot what isn't real, you breathe the salt air That comes in with the tide Will I find her Beyond the sea Eastern shores are calling me Across the ocean Gray ships will lead me somewhere green Follow olden roads back home Follow over hills and under trees and broken stones Follow olden souls back home Though I've never been there it's somewhere that I know And may the wind be always at my back Ere I find my way And until we raise the parting glass We’ll let worries fade away And I won't rest Till I stand on giants steps And watch the wind beget The sails of passing ships And fishers nets Upon the sea Western shores are calling me Across the ocean Gray ships will lead me somewhere green Follow olden roads back home Follow over seas and on the breeze of rocky coasts Follow olden souls back home Though I've never been there It’s somewhere that I know And when my story’s at its end And I wait to see my friends again When the salt air and the tide Bring me to the end of life I finally lay down and Stick my sword into the sand And take her hand Follow olden roads back home Follow over hills and under trees and stepping stones Follow olden souls back home Though I've never been there it's somewhere that I know
9.
Whistle Down 03:16
"Whistle Down" I can't figure it out What you are to me Or where we'll go I realize I don't know Blame it on my neurons, firing too slow cause I'm a fool compared to you And you're so beautiful I can't figure it out I can't figure you out I can't figure me out But I can feel it comin' out Stare at you across the room Like I'm on earth and you're the moon I wanna stay with you the whole night through I'm used to you but you're something new I can't figure it out I can't figure you out I can't figure me out But I feel it comin' out I'll tell you What I think about The way you are and the way you move and the way you laugh and the way you lose Me

Fallout 03:33
"Fallout" Could you leave me alone for a minute? I’m wondering why, I didn’t get to finish I’m trying to find, another way to spin it My heart is stuck up in it And I’m still tryna fix it It was whole but now it isn’t I never thought I could fall out with you And I don’t like it But you hurt me too I never thought I could write a happy song And I don’t like it But I guess I wasn’t wrong Break my heart apart You leave me in the dark when I haven’t got a spark And I haven’t got a I can play the part And pretend it isn’t hard Where am I supposed to start? I’m not the one Who isn’t there when you fall down You shot the gun It isn’t fair I was called out I’m on the run But I’m not scared she’s all around Everyone Is here but they don’t feel the fallout If I could stop checking my phone for a moment I’m trying to see (be), I said I’m always hoping I’m trying to breath but, my chest feels like it’s open My thoughts just keep on roaming I’m trying to control em I’m pathetic and I know it I never thought I could fall for you And I don’t like it What am I supposed to do? I never thought I could write a happy song And I don’t like it But I guess I wasn’t wrong Break my heart apart Leave me in the dark when I haven’t got a spark And I haven’t got a I can play my part And pretend it isn’t hard Where am I supposed to start? I’m not the one Who isn’t there when you fall down You shot the gun It isn’t fair I was called out If anyone Could take my hand and pull me out Everyone Is here but they don’t feel the fallout I’m not the one I lost this one I’m not the one I lost this one The way he dreamed The way she'd listen The way she'd sleep The way you are I’m not worth it leave me scarred I’m not worth it leave me scarred You look perfect in the dark You look perfect in the dark
