Got a funny feeling I'll be
Sleeping in a coffin for the night
Where the plants hang from the ceiling
My temperature's down, my pants are much too tight
(I'm far too comfortable with my
Sick jokes and running traffic lights)
I'll make the most of what I've got
With the spare change I'm holding in my hand
Fly over the parking lot
And onward to the dusty borderland
There's nothing left behind
And nothing left for me to find
Never known what they call 'home'
But I've got a pounding in my chest
Searching for a place to call my own
Settle down, put my lazy bones to rest
It's a tiny piece of Heaven
with a little Hell sandwiched in between
Talked about in great detail
But to this day has yet to be seen
(I know it's gonna be alright
I'll make it there if I just try)
People tell me I'm mistaken
But the truth remains my only hope
So I'm searching for an island
Only with a broken telescope
There's nothing left behind
And nothing left for me to find
I guess I'll pause and hit rewind
Never known what they call 'home'
But I've got a pounding in my chest
Searching for a place to call my own
Settle down, put my lazy bones to rest

Rays

There you go
Running circles around my head
I can't keep you off my mind
Rays of hope got me so, so blind
And I can hardly understand
Why you hold my hand every time
As though
We never skipped a beat in history
A beautiful chemistry
It's always been just you and me
And I don't care about what they think
Or what they say
It doesn't matter much now, anyway
So
I made a song just for you
To keep you from feeling so blue
Rays of hope shining bright and true
And I could go to lengths
To tell you how I feel
But you already know the deal

Run For Your Life

It's a story I just
Can't begin to tell you
And if it slips from our minds
We'll make it up as we go
You said you'd never go outside
Grab hold of the night, you better take it
Run for you life, but you can't escape it
Hold this moment, yeah it's all for nothing
It's an omen, got me onto something
And I know that deep down
You want to stay so don't you go
And if there's a problem
Then why don't you just say so?
You said you'd never go outside
Grab hold of the night, you better take it
Run for you life, but you can't escape it
Hold this moment, yeah it's all for nothing
It's an omen, got me onto something

On the Shore

Hey mister, won't you come and talk a walk with me
Down to the sea
It's a beautiful view, and we can do as we please
I guarantee
I don't want to go down, down below
(You don't need to worry)
Please don't make me go down, down below
(You don't need to worry)
Shipwrecked on the shore
Won't you help me just this once
Once more
I cried like you wouldn't believe it
Oh
And honey I sobbed 'til I don't know when
I don't want to go down, down below
(You don't need to worry)
Please don't make me go down, down below
(You don't need to worry)
Shipwrecked on the shore
Won't you help me just this once
Once more

Crimson and blue
You know just what to do
Helped me when I fell
You showed me something new
Words just can't describe
How I feel alive
Selfless and unused
Crimson is true
When I woke up today
I felt a special way
I knew the time would heal
But it won't be today
I might be blue right now
But it won't stay that way
Unsure of how I'll feel
On another day
On another day
Crimson and Blue
You know just what to do
Helped me when I fell
You showed me something new
Words just can't describe
How I feel alive
Selfless and unused
Crimson and blue

October (Spring Song)

October
Stuck in the air
Leaves falling
While I stop and stare
Never thought of
The ones I'd leave behind this autumn
But I know that I've got you
And I want to love you, too
Changing weather
Endless flowing of the soul
I hadn't figured we
Would ever see ourselves growing old
October
A weakened sun
Shunning everyone
And everything I'd held so dear
October
In my rear view
When the purple flowers bloom
I know it's all okay
For me and you

She's Going Nowhere
03:30

I don't wanna go out there all alone
What's the point of winter without any snow?
Stand up
And your presence follows me
Way down
It's a feeling that swallows me
I don't wanna go out there all alone
She's going nowhere
She's going nowhere
She makes me feel like I forgot how to breathe
She makes it clear I got my heart on my sleeve
I don't wanna go out there, I'm so full of gloom
What's the point of springtime if roses don't bloom?
Stand up
And your presence follows me
Way down
It's a feeling that swallows me
I don't wanna go out there all alone
She's going nowhere
She's going nowhere
She makes me feel like I forgot how to breathe
She makes it clear I got my heart on my sleeve
