Hollow

Ah sister can you know how dismal days can be
I'm 24 now and it's way too much for me
Just a drag, these endless hours
I'm old way past my years
But there is one thing I have wanted for you
Don't you ever follow these sorry steps of mine
Don't live your days this hollow
There's nothing worse that I could force into my mind
Than knowing your best times are equally unkind
With nothing to look forward to and nowhere to fall back
I could never stand to see you this way
Don't you ever follow these sorry steps of mine
Don't live your days this hollow
Long before you turn into me
I'll close the door and beg you to go free
And though you don't know enough to be
I hope you will find a way to leave
Don't you ever follow these sorry steps of mine
Don't live your days this hollow
And I can see you steppin' far away to the dark, away to the dark

Sadie Should've Said

Alone you laid before I left
Alone, silent, before I left
Loss and trouble and I'm too far away I can't be here tomorrow
Loss and trouble and I'm too far away I'm sorry but I'm too far away
But I wish you would have said something before
I wish you would have said something before
I wish you would have said something before I left, before
Ah Sadie, what'd you do that for
Ah Sadie, what'd you do that for
I could never go too far
Ah Sadie, what'd you do that for
Ah Sadie, what'd you do that for
I could never go too far
Ah Sadie, what'd you do that for
Ah Sadie, what'd you do that for
I could never go too far
Ah Sadie, what'd you do that for
Sadie, should've said that before
I could never go too far

Too Close

I felt a draft in the wake of a lasting light
What did you need to take that left me so dry, left me so dry
And where the water chills your skin
Where everything's true
It shined down on you
Do you know what that means
And with your last breath you felt
The water twisting slow
As you faded below
Do you know what it means to me
To take it out on you?
So where it's always late and nothing's ever right
And where I found my hate and where it's cold at night, I left you to die
And by the river's where you lay
And that's where you'll stay
I slipped easily away
I know what that means
And by the river in the weeds
I sometimes will see
Your silhouette asleep
Do you know what it means to me?
I know what it means to you
What I'd say to you I admit I didn't know

Just One More

Just one more for wasted time
One more to wasted times
Good, bad, into our lives
Good, bad through misty eyes
One more time
Just one more for sad goodbyes
One more to glad goodbyes
Good, bad, into our lives
Good, bad through misty eyes
One more time

Misleader
02:49

Before these words on pages dry
We see ourselves through others' eyes
I'd have to think if I wanna try
If only I could leave it up to you
For future, for later
I waited for some elated
Misleader, confuser, intruder, worn out, unwelcome all
Before we both take in this speak
And open up to be the weak
I'll slam the door open for fast leave
But if we start to feel it then we're through
For future, for later
I waited for some elated
Misleader, confuser, intruder, worn out, unwelcome all

In My Dead World
03:40

Flowers in my basement
Don't know how they got there
Nothing ever grows here
Nothing could come from that dark
But free from out of that cold
It's because I cared so for them
To see where they should be
Up to share the life long with me
Put them in my window
Let the sun upon them
If they needed water
I would let the rain in
But something stirs within them now
To me, soul crashing inside
Nothing lives or breathes beside me
For now this life leans to die
It's because I cared so for them
I know it's good to be alone sometimes
But how long should it last
If it's to be another winter through
How slowly time will pass

The Drunk Driving Song

Fallen to the floor in another dive
My moment of truth has finally arrived
Fallen to the floor, can't believe I'm alive
I know I shouldn't but I just gotta drive
