forfeit the game or play to win i made my bed and now i'm sleeping in woke up late to find you gone hope i wasn't wrong i think you caught me thinking out loud would i be crazy if i burnt my own house down then i could rebuild to my liking close cover before striking breaking ground for the new me breaking down every time i think about it breaking ground for the new me getting up from these past catastrophes i'm always using words like maybe and someday maybe someday i'll learn that tomorrow's always a day away i always knew it would feel like this but i can't say i was ready for it out of state out of mind at least i can pretend i'm fine could this cup of coffee really keep me company for another winter alone i'm always using words like maybe and someday and sorry i'm sorry i couldn't say you remind me of everything i ever wanted to be maybe we were meant to be

brave hearted girl goes out to take on the world but comes home crying every time she doesn't sleep at night she's afraid to close her eyes i see her walking in the street sometimes she knows about suffering and all about sorrow she's starving for the beautiful things that people seem to believe in she doesn't want to be dead in the water yet she swims out to sea how long waited way too long don't let them fool you brave hearted girl goes out to take on the world but comes home crying every time we're walking in the rain she turns to me to say i hope tomorrow doesn't feel this way she's heard about happiness she's heard about jesus she's starving for the beautiful things that people seem to believe in

Summer In St. Claire

i've been waiting here for you for so long and it's been several weeks since i last saw you there if you had only come around again then i might have said to you what i've been thinking of she's more than beautiful at night when all of her stars are out and still sometimes when it's warm and quiet i'll get thinking about summer in st. claire these days are getting shorter as october falls and with it come the coldest memories i own and like the leaves that fall from trees my dreams come slow as if to say to me that i should let it go she's more than beautiful at night when all of her stars are out and still sometimes i wonder why she was crying her eyes out i guess i'll never know lying in bed wishing i was someone else instead i've got to figure this one out just between you and me and god everybody needs some time to heal everybody needs like everybody bleeds can't we sit and talk about all that we've loved and lost and what it's cost and i'll put on a show for you pretending not to hurt like nothings ever wrong and you'll see right through me and i'll be here for you and you'll be there for me and i'll feign strong and you'll see right through me

something to bloom but not my eyes i'm waiting for you alone in my room except for the flies looking for light my hands held with dark why is it so hard for me i hold back my heart and it all falls apart again two seconds from the end why am i the same it makes no sense when you keep promising change why is it so hard for me it's not right this time i'm way left of right i guess i just should have known it's always like this it hasn't always been i never saw the change but i need one again something so true and still so full of lies i'm high on your smile coming down on your words i guess i just should have known

Fighting Gravity
06:06

i talk to you all the time the world thinks i'm crazy as crazy is and i don't feel much different fluorescent lights hum their incessant anthem everything i believe and everything that holds me together at the seams seems so far away from here and we're all wandering where're we going and i wish my colors weren't so faded i wish i didn't feel so cold everyone's so slow and jaded falling asleep to this midwestern drone i think about running everyday away from this life i've made built to last a little too long feeling trapped under my own weight too heavy now to stand let alone fly and i'm always watching the sky with jealous eyes wish i'd finally fall apart do something desperate to change things changed my mind again just when i was getting brave somewhere over this city high above the red brick chimneys i know we can escape this it feels like fighting gravity

haven't had the bottom fall in such a long time staring out this window the outside looks a little grayer than it has been haven't had the curtain fall in such a long time all this time here waiting tomorrow's another day of coming up short again your most beautiful disguise so clever i should try it sometime underneath your tired eyes the tears you brought all dry i wish if only for a while you could see things through my eyes this seems like a distant success i would fight for the chance but i've seen them kill for less than all this my arms are tired of throwing my hands this place empty giving up on me giving up to you

twenty-four more to go and it will be tomorrow one more day older one more day closer to some sort of end ten am and i'm already ready to say let's call it a day get me out of this bed and tell me what you meant when you said everything will be ok the parking lot sea and me wait patiently to hear the still small voice beneath the noise the traffic and sirens say run away but the trains say stay we've been around and it's all the same only the names change just hold my head and tell me what you meant when you said take heart child be still and quiet know your burdens are mine and dry your eyes there's so much more to all of this than you can see so close your eyes tonight and trust in me hold my head and tell me what you meant when you said trust in me
