1.
Listen in if I wanted to Blocking out for the afternoon Whistling through the highest wind Grappling with the greatest grip
2.
Sidewalk 04:03
Hiding in all the right places Just me and all of my faces Touchdown - it’s up to my neck now Wrung out and playin’ my cards right Clap my hands and count to ten The celebration, it needs to end The voice is dry, the strings are tight All collection, the birds in flight I know i’m wrong but it’s not my fault Escape relation, reflection bend
3.
The Dreamer 03:10
It’s stuck in my head, let’s hope for the best I’ll try to change for you, I know I’m a mess Stare at the wall and give it your all Taking your time with me, I’m hanging it up Split it with me, maybe we’ll get it for free It’s not the dreamer that I thought I would be Lost my memory twice, doesn’t that sound nice But it’s wasting energy on keeping me clean I was always a dreamer But you, you called me a loser Single it out and let it run up my spine The western heater, it’s making me shine See at all once what a life it was Don’t regret me after the feeling the love Split it with me, maybe we’ll get it for free It’s not the dreamer that I thought I would be Lost my memory twice, doesn’t that sound nice But it’s wasting energy on keeping me clean I was always a dreamer But you, you called me a loser
4.
The Spine 06:24
It’s a hard day when the night comes slow Driving down the dirt road along the spine I stand I stand I stand None from the sky, though blowing off the ground, A dusting of snow will disappear My man My man My man Good is the life-ending faith Turn on the all-star catalog Have a thought Give into your hope and pray Blink through the matching photographs in the fog Silhouette fell underneath the hill I like it like that, the pressure fill Stand still and try to make out the sound Wallow on top of the plastic town And roll in the grass, the dreamer feel Hanging around in my head Good is the life-ending faith Turn on the all-star catalog Have a thought Give into your hope and pray Blink through the matching photographs in the fog
5.
Walking on a highway, really need a road map Maybe it’s a good day to call a cab and dip out How far can I get with the tenner in my pocket Did I close the front door? Doesn’t matter no more And it starts to rain, rain Believe me when I say that I really tried to get there The panic hit the pavement, you only show to not care The shoulder of the exit is hidden in the darkness Gotta flag a car down, all without reception And it starts to rain, rain
6.
Walked across the ridgeline while I wait for life to change What’s left to do after you but watch the green decay? What are you on about today? Turn around again, this way Chemical catastrophe Ain’t it nice, the afterlife? Where the stones are left to lay Hiding out underground where I come to run away What are we on about today? End the world again, your way Fantasy catastrophe
7.
Magnetic 02:23
I think we all agree it’s magnetic Standing on a line, I’m there Copy of a world we inhabit Sharing on the fire with care Find another way, less dramatic Stop it on a dime, from tears I don’t wanna take this for granted Just another day or year
8.
For A Voter 02:10
Alternate between the saw and hatchet Estimated profit: high Coin is what you’re valued by Don’t let greed be the norm Imitate emotion for a voter Estimated profit: high Coin is what you’re valued by Don’t let greed be the norm Polar- Polar- Polarize
9.
Hiding Out 01:39
All my toys applaud None of us belong Time will tell how long is long Stuck in the swamp All my toys applaud None of us belong Time will tell how long is long
10.
Passing strangers, I’m lingering Broken format, let’s blow this thing I’ve been wasting the weekends Lord forgive me, I sinned again
