The Show ft. Nate James

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

Shades of Blue
04:00
|
|||
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

You Can Have Mine
03:54
|
|||
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

Loving Memory
04:12
|
|||
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
