I'm sitting here Eating emotions My world unclear Just waiting For you to call But the phone don't ring So I answer to the alcohol Will it bring you the answers? No, but it blurs the lines enough Will it earn you forgiveness? No, just the courage to call your bluff My sweet release Is the cage in which you live And you're still screaming I'm the one you can't forgive So take my place It's the one thing I can give Where I'm still dreaming Of a world that lets me in Let me in Will it bring you the answers? No, but it blurs the lines enough Will it earn you forgiveness? No, just the courage to make my bluff Will it show me what matters? Stealing the spotlights Climbing the ladders The show Is all we know Oh, the show Is all we know Oh the show Is all we know I'm sitting here Eating emotions My world unclear Just waiting For you to call But the silence rings Drowning out the alcohol

Old Man 04:16
I want to be an old man Holding your hand and just Looking out on a life we built together Laughing about how we almost lost forever How I was a fool when I was young How you told me I should run And I want to thank you for holding on through the Times that you were sure you could do better I want to beat out everyone When it comes to being the one Who gets your heart For all the ways that we are flawed There are two more that make us fit Every day we lose apart There are two more in which we win Though the lens through which we see ourselves May blur and even split I love you always Every day And every little bit I want to be your old man Keeping our plans and just Adding on to the story we've been writing Making our home a little more inviting Every day, and righting every wrong Shouting not in anger, but song And I'm gonna love you with everything The only cruel thing about it being how much I mean it And in front Of everyone For all the ways that we are flawed There are two more that make us fit Every day we lose apart There are two more in which we win Though the lens through which we see ourselves May blur and even split I love you always Every day And every little bit For all the ways that we are flawed There are two more that make us fit Every day we lose apart There are two more in which we win Though the lens through which we see ourselves May blur and even split Well, I love you always Every day I love you ALWAYS EVERY DAY I love you always Every day And every little Bit

I take the feather from the ink Press it to the page, and watch it bleed My method may be out of date Right now the past is what I need I'm still living in the now But as I stop to take a breath I'm using history to determine What I'll be from here to death At the window of my memory Looking out as I review I see my thoughts, my friends, my songs My loves and fears And then there's you And all the dreaming that I've done And never shown to anyone Meshed with melody And hidden in plain view I'll hide the keys and lock my head Where they lie will not be said But each time we part I'll leave you with a clue In blended shades of blue I can tell that I'm still breathing 'Cause it's fogging up the pane And in this breath are hints of death Diluting memories in my veins It's stirring up the concept But I still know right from wrong And my receptors, still receptive Tell me this does not belong I see out of this window So much beauty, poise, and class But I must stay here on the inside And admire through the glass Through the glass While all the dreaming that I've done And never shown to anyone Is painted on a page In blended shades of blue I'll hide the keys and lock my heart So that you won't know where to start But part of me believes that you already do These blended shades of blue All roads go home to you All the dreaming that I've done And never shown to anyone Meshed with melody And hidden in plain view I'll hide the keys and lock my head Where they lie will not be said And each time we part I'll leave you with a clue In blended shades of blue

If the pounding in your head drowns out your reason Well you know you can call me any time These old drums have taken beatings through the years And they're not perfect They work well enough to listen to your mind So if one day you can't hear past the ringing And every sound just seems too amplified If you need an ear Well I have two And you can have mine If your perception gets unclear and life gets blurry And it seems like no one else is looking out If you can't tell what's in front of you Let alone watch your back I might have a solution to your doubt See, these windows to my soul Might help you see to gain control And they're always here for you if you lose sight So if you need an eye I've got two And you can have mine You can Take what you need, without any hesitation An ear, an eye, a shoulder if you lack An arm, a hand, a leg to stand Let them be your salvation Even if they are the "knock-off" brand I've got multiples of each And they come without expectation I don't care if I ever get them back Aw, you can have mine If it gets you back on track If the center of your chest is feeling broken And it's seeming like the pump's about to stop Well, I've got one that's been beating all these years It isn't perfect But it won't quit 'til it bleeds out every drop And if there comes a day when you just can't fight through the pain And it seems that you might go before your time If you should need a heart Well I just have one But you can have mine Oh, You can have mine

If you're hearing this, and I am gone Well I hope I loved you well Got strong before I fell And had a chance to hold your heart again And I hope I kicked that nasty habit You know the one And if I didn't, well I guess at least You and I had some fun Didn't we? I'd like to think that you agree 'Cause there will always be you and I Frozen happily together in a warm embrace Somewhere in our own time And there will always be you and me Holding onto one and other In loving memory So if you're gone before this message comes Well then I know I'll see you soon But not before I've claimed the sun And lassoed you the moon But if you're hearing this and I am gone If you're hearing this and I am gone Just know I love you too Know I love you too And I hope that you still do Yeah, I hope that you still do 'Cause there will always be you and I Frozen happily together in a warm embrace Somewhere in our own time And there will always be you and me Holding onto one and other In loving memory In loving memory Loving memory Loving memory So if you're hearing this, and I am gone Oh, please remember me

Annabel Lee 02:33
As somebody who dreams I want to believe In a love so strong it can beat death I've felt none for myself Though I see it around me And I'm happy to be drawing breath From the air of the Annabel Lees The believers I'm loving vicariously For the moon never beams Without bringing me dreams Of the beautiful Annabel Lee My heart warms in cold waters Of lost sons and daughters A husband whose wife's long since passed Their love was so strong That it turned into song That he sang 'til he died Free at last In the air of the Annabel Lees There are dreamers Whose spirits dwell right here with me And the stars never rise But I see the bright eyes Of the beautiful Annabel Lee Would you dream with me? And you'll see That the moon never beams Without bringing me dreams Of the beautiful Annabel Lee And the stars never rise But I see the bright eyes Of the beautiful Annabel Lee
