Tell me, if I come do i ever get to go?
Or will you just break down and cry
God bless your soul
When everbody sees we're growing cold
But you don't know
That lately, i've been unable to hold down all the air
And i know i always swore i'd never swear
But i'm growing so damn tired of getting old
And getting cold, God bless my soul
All my friends are telling me
Everything that i could be
And i just smile, but secretly
I think i'm starting to believe
I'm gonna make it out of here
Give me intoxication over sobriety
Give me proof of everything that you believe
I really don't appreciate you preaching to me
Can't you see?
Oh, you'll see that i'm more that just a waste of given space
Or a rejection of your offer of some grace
Cause i know that there's a time and there's a place for me
And i can see
That all my friends are telling me
Everything that i should…

The ship was sinking; we were drinking, singing one last song,
Casting our gold into the ocean.
You grabbed a bucket, started screaming, "Come on, come on",
Trying to slow the downward motion.
Back in the kingdom, we were kings and queens and Oh, so strong
That God himself could not contain us.
We never thought we'd be the shorter half of sword and gun.
Now god himself could never save us.
Waves of silver, waves of gold
Are coming now to take me,
To separate my body from my soul
And Jesus leaves or takes me.
Hopes of heaven, fears of hell
Tell me, what's the chance I'll make it.
All my other plans have failed,
And all this time I've faked it.
We started sinking, drinking water from the open sea
Losing our bodies to the ocean.
You grabbed my hand and started screaming, "rescue me"
Together fight the downward motion.
Back in the kingdom we were kings and queens and Oh, so strong
That god himself just had…

Car door's frozen
I can't get to you
Your window's open
The cold air's pouring through
Your bones are broken
The belt won't let you loose
And i'm left hoping
That you might wake up soon
I just stand and watch as they pull you from another world
Unraveling twisted plots, oh i wish you were another girl
And i'll set the world on fire
Cause i could not satisfy her
Empty hallways
You can't get to me
Open doorways
But you're still searching for your keys
And i can't open
The ears for which i sing
So i'll just pass along
And baby you'll start to hear me
You just sit and stare as if i'm from another land
In your comfortable chair, oh i wish i were another man
And i'll set the world on fire
Cause i could not satisfy her
Satisfaction seems to be
The key that turns, the air we breathe
It brings us now so confidently crawling on our knees
So you try to satisfy the hours
But you're ignorance won't…

My lady, she's nothing more than a melody
Whistl... (more)

My lady, she's nothing more than a melody
Whistlin underneath my skin
And pourin through my blood veins
Absorbing all the brain waves
Overtaking all my dreams.
And i could never be unfaithful
My everything is far too much to risk
And girl you're so extraordinary
But she's the only reason i exist
I'm bad news baby, i'm gonna break your heart
I burn my bridges daily before any others cross
I'm bad news baby, i'm not the man you want
The only girl i'll ever love is trapped inside a song
They tell me i'm nothing more than a tragedy
I'm headed for a breakdown
But they don't know my lady
They can't see how much she loves me
She'll never let me hit the ground
And i could never be unfaithful
My everything is far too much to risk
And girl you're so extraordinary
But she's the only reason i exist
I'm bad news baby, i'm gonna…
