Evergreens 04:03
I'll conjure up you a dream If you distract my reality I've no time for birds or bees still I'd like to take you 'neath the evergreens Yeah, we both got places to be I think too much and you're too carefree But still I like some bitter in my sweet Just tonight could you still your wandering feet Ya still em! Cause I want you in my arms I want you in my arms tonight The future's a twisty road Whether wedding bells fade or continue to grow I want you in my arms I want you in my arms tonight In my arms tonight

Draggin' Boy 03:18
Hello young lady my name is "the-boy-that-will-bring-you-down" And I'm different from those other boys clinging to the strings in your gown And I've heard a hint of possibilities from the talk around town And I hope that you'll forgive me for cuttin' you off before you drown Cause I'm a heavy hunk of metal though you think that I'm a crown Yeah yeah Let's skip formalities, realities, and all the sorts Don't tell me what you think or a single thing that's on your heart Cause I see your destiny- prosperity; and I-want-out I've cut down every tree in proximity, don't you dare now come about Cause I'm not done feeling bitter and I can't afford a sprout No no Ha ha uh oh I can't tell who I am no more And I can't tell who I was before I've ripped down my exterior But I'm afraid I won't be standing when my sharps hit the floor Ha ha uh oh If I say that I can't stay you can assume I'm telling lies Cause I've been hoping for anything but losing hope is for the wise I can't stop staring and obsessing best you don't come around Of course you like me flying ten feet from the ground

All I gave were bloody knuckles All I gave were bruised lips All I gave were busted bodies Now I'm left with a girl with bloody knuckles

Not 02:05

I was born into a dark dark world Won't be long till we're all gone It just chews me up and it spits me out I'm born again but I've had enough I'm well acquainted with this life alone Done it long enough now it feels like home It's the safest place I've learned to run If it kills me slow then it's no fun She was born into this dark dark world Got your reasons to turn around Cause they lift you up and they push you down And not before they shut your mouth But her droplets of hair were my spoonfuls of sun She holds her fear like a mother holds... But I know hope 'cause it's hung from a thread Inches from my nose like a wisp of wind Try to hold it close and it disappears And you're no different I see you clear But her droplets of hair were my spoonfuls of sun She holds her fear like a mother holds a gun Her deadpan stare, it hides all that's been done She don't give a care about herself or anyone Can this be the one?

Ruts 03:28
Some have said you're stuck inside a rut It's true everything I've loved now tastes like dust And every tool to understand has turned to rust... What can I trust? But I know that I know that I know that I know we've just begun I recall a time when you would want nothing else To be with you was my only thought Now the only thing I'm crying out.. Is, "What have I done?" And, "What can I do?" I'm such a fool Cause I'm so I am so I am so I am so made low I can just wait on the only one...just maybe in a more omissive way "Take me away" "Oh come replace" Just go away
