UNSUNG (FEAT. ARETE)
Some songs are better left unsung
Some things are better left undone
Sometimes all we could ever want is someone to hold on to
Someone to hold on to
It's hard to walk away sometimes
It's even harder to pretend that you don't care when you do
But like a last resort brought forth by words that you don't wanna hear
Nothing's harder than the truth
And I've got music in my veins
and a little bit of rhythm in my heart
I've known people that I lost and ones I loved too much
I spent too long not knowing what I want
Some songs are better left unsung
Some things are better left undone
Sometimes all we could ever want is someone to hold on to
Someone to hold on to
And the way it always seems
You surround yourself by things that come around once they go
I say the words I wanna sing but never think of anything
that would be better off on show
Just hold tight to what you love
Some songs are better left unsung
Some things are better left undone
Sometimes all we could ever want is someone to hold on to
Someone to hold on to
The unsung heroes
Dillinger's gun zeroed on that someone to hold on to, make me fear no evil
I'm touching the picture perfect while eating a bag of Cheetos
I guess I smudge it on purpose, I guess I'm getting frustrated
Put creases in puzzle pieces
and bleed the coagulation of music written in vain
When it's early it's getting late
and the rocks I toss at your window are bouncing right off the pain
Found the fountains of euthanasia
The sun is out but it's raining
I'm saying congratulations if maybe you had the patience
of flowers without a vase
and I'm weighted as floats deflated by thorns in the rose parade
and everyone knows my name
With binomial nomenclature I'm only a Homo Sapien
It's the tongue in cheek behavior, whatever dilutes the taste
And something 'bout music playing accelerated lunar phases
Nights darker than Bruce Wayne
So ready for newer days
Stole a halo from and angel
I'm joking she threw it away
Some songs are better left unsung
Some things are better left undone
Sometimes all we could ever want is someone to hold on to
Someone to hold on to

PERMANENT
She wakes up in yesterday's makeup
She falls out of yesterday's clothes
In spite of the bad news and breakups
she knows that life is beautiful
Her favorite word is permanent
Just like the tattoos on her skin
Though the ice is wearing thin
she knows that life is beautiful
And though she knows she's not alone in this world
It would be a lie if she denied it ever felt that way
She's not looking for someone to call love
She's just looking for someone to hold on
She goes out, a night on the same town
But she'd much rather stay at home
She knows all it'd take is a phone call
to know that life is beautiful
And though she knows she's not alone in this world
It would be a lie if she denied it ever felt that way
She's not looking for someone to call love
She's just looking for someone to hold on
Can't get that song out of her head
The one that plays when she can't fall asleep
Her favorite band's the one he's in
But she can't hear it in her dreams

All the Same

ALL THE SAME
When I was sixteen took to the stage
I was an actor in a play
She was seventeen and did the same
She had the face I had the name
She's in love with someone else and
I'm in love with someone else but
For those months we both felt the same
Summer days turned into nights
I know the tears that we both cried
We couldn't fix it if we tried
I was too in love to let it die
But it did
I'm sorry for the things I said and she
deserved more than I could give but
For those months it was all the same
We used to talk ourselves to sleep
These days we barely even speak
Two shooting stars with separate dreams
Too many promises to keep
She's in love with someone else and
I'm in love with someone else but
For those months it was all the same

WHITE
I hear her like a whisper from the past
The other half of a love not meant to last
I no longer see her in my dreams
I guess our hearts have both repaired their seams
I loved her once but never will again
And it doesn't hurt to see her with another man
It's been forever since I've had her on my mind
But I bet that she looked beautiful in white, beautiful in white
I was a boy, not the man I should have been
And everything was on and off again
When I learned what it was to say too much
We stood and watched it all fall out of touch
I loved her once but never will again
And it doesn't hurt to see her with another man
It's been forever since I've had her on my mind
But I bet that she looked beautiful in white, beautiful in white
I loved her once but never will again
And it doesn't hurt to see her with another man
It's been forever since I've had her on my mind
But I bet that she looked beautiful in white, beautiful in white

FAME
Started out with the only songs I knew
Slowly learned to play those chords in tune
It's amazing just how far we've come
What good's a song if I can't face it
What good's a face if I always have to turn away
Don't want the fame but still I chase it
And all I know is nothing will ever be the same
Started out with friends and family shows
Hope they know that we needed them the most
It's amazing just how far we've come
What good's a song if I can't face it
What good's a face if I always have to turn away
Don't want the fame but still I chase it
And all I know is nothing will ever be the same
Girl you're better than fame
You already know my name
And the way that your eyes shine tonight
is brighter than a million lights on my face
Girl you're better than fame
You already know my name
And the way that your eyes shine tonight
is brighter than a million lights on my face
Girl you're better than fame
You already know my name
You already know my name

THE WAR
You say that you don't want to speak
I'm trying hard by I just want to see you
And you've not been around for weeks
You're fighting hard but I just wanna be with you
And it's not over, we've not lost the war
And I still have no idea what we're fighting for
And when it's over I can lay my saber down
and lay my weary body on the ground if you'll still be around
I've got some words I never said
I've held them tight but they're falling from my mouth
And I don't care where you've been
I'm trying hard but I , baby I just need you now
And it's not over, we've not lost the war
And I still have no idea what we're fighting for
And when it's over I can lay my saber down
and lay my weary body on the ground if you'll still be around
It's not over, we've not lost the war
And baby I believe that you're worth fighting for
And when it's over I can lay my saber down
and lay my weary body on the ground if you'll still be around

OLD FILMS
We sat there, an old film passed us by
But my eyes weren't on the screen
I tried to hide it, but she caught my stare
So I shifted in my seat
I had my radio in hand
But those movies never were her type
I've found that this guitar can well convey
the thoughts that tangle in my head
So I beat these strings until I find a match
So I can put my thoughts to bed
It's hard to put her to words
It's hard to say what these chords sound like to her

DRIVE HOME
Where did you go
I didn't think things got too out of control
I was trying to love you the best that I know how
We've been here before
Coffee with no sugar-coated way to tell me you're not really sure
what you want - specifically from me
And I liked this just enough to be sad without it
And I loved you just enough to write a song about it
I know we may be better on our own
But I"ll always miss the way that I felt about you on the drive home
This has been fun
But what am I supposed to do with three packs of this gum
It tastes like you, and I kinda like that
You never said
what any of this meant to you, just found a way to make the end my fault
But there's no fault to be had
And I liked this just enough to be sad without it
And I loved you just enough to write a song about it
I know we may be better on our own
But I"ll always miss the way that I felt about you on the drive home
And I miss the way you'd say the things you said in the car
With your arm on my arm
And I swore you'd hear a song about yourself on the next one
On to the next one
I liked this just enough to be sad without it
And I loved you just enough to write a song about it
I know we may be better on our own
But I"ll always miss the way that I felt about you
And I liked this just enough to be sad without it
And I loved you just enough to write a song about it
I know we may be better on our own
But I"ll always miss the way that I felt about you on the drive home

WANT
I made you up in my head
That's how it feels some
nights when I can't sleep
I toss and turn in this bed
you never slept in
and try to feel you close to me
And the truth
is I don't ever wanna love anyone but you
But when it comes to this
it doesn't matter what I want
You're not the girl of my dreams
Just to closest I've been
to thinking all those dreams were wrong
When all the uncertainty
had disappeared I
I knew exactly what I wanted
The truth
is I don't ever wanna stop loving you
But when it comes to this
it doesn't matter what I want
Was any of this real to you
Did you mean it when you told me
that none of this was real to you
And the truth
is I don't ever wanna love anyone but you
But when it comes to this
it doesn't matter what I want

DREAMS
First date
I hadn't felt that way
In a long time, in a long time
Picture on the screen
Closed the space between
Your lips and mine without our eyes
Breaths that you breathe in
Could have been
The best thing I have ever felt
You make me believe in dreams again
You make me believe in dreams again
Late drive
Hard to keep my eyes
on the road and a hand on your knee
To fall asleep
Would mean we'd have to keep
to ourselves until the morning
Poetry in my car
Who you are
Starts to show and she is who I want
You make me believe in dreams again
You make me believe in dreams again
Pull me by the hem of my shirt
I'm so sure of everything
You really like me don't you
You make me believe in dreams again
You make me believe in dreams again
You make me believe in dreams again
You make me believe in dreams again
