Mmhmm
Well, I don't know where you came from but I don't want you here no mo'
Way down south in good ol' Mississpi, there's a little ol' girl looking oh so pretty
"I am a man of constant sorrow, I've seen trouble all my days"

Barrier
03:00
|

|
There is a barrier between you and me
Not sure I can topple it
Towers as high as can be between the trees, release
You and me agree we’re week
This wall is an obstacle, I don’t think we can climb
Maybe this is for the best, save ourselves some time
Nothing left here to salvage
I’m thinking that it’s too late
It’s clear that we’ve lost our passion
Please tell me that you can relate
We stand on hollow ground
We can’t seem to make it out

Hello Pt. 1 - Sign
02:09
|
|||
|
Hello beautiful
Hello sunshine
Like a bright light
In a starry sky
You changed my life
Like a sign from the divine
As I speed through
This strange thing called time
You make me want
To stop and stay a while
My life is not
A waste
When I’m with you
You quell the bitter taste
And I will try
To make
Your life as good
As you’ve made mine
Let’s stay a while
Just pass the time with me
Let’s take it slow
So we don’t miss a thing

Distant
05:18
|
|||
|
Issues yet to confront
I feel so unimportant
Seems like all I do is try
Distant and out of your mind
Memories you have haunted
My love is unwanted
Feelings I need to find
Distant and out of your mind
Oooooo, Hey
Oooooo, Hey
Why?
How did it come down to this?
A stranger inside your kiss
How did it come down to this?
A stranger inside your kiss
I tried hard for you (I tried hard for you!)
Always fall for you (Always fall for you!)
You seem so distracted
Sorry I overreacted
Wasted all of my time
Distant and out of my mind
This state makes me anxious
My wound is infectious
Are you willing to find?
Distant and out of my mind
Oooooo, Hey
Oooooo, Hey
Why?
How did it come down to this?
A stranger inside your kiss
How did it come down to this?
A stranger inside your kiss
I tried hard for you (I tried hard for you!)
Always fall for you (Always fall for you!)
Unwanted, I gave it all for you!
Unwanted, I gave it all for you!
Uhh!
Goodbye!
Goodbye!
Goodbye!
Goodbye, oh woah oh.

I roll out of my bed by noon and don’t speak to a soul
I take a look in the polished glass that hangs on my bathroom wall
The dark circles hang below my eyes, a clear sign of distress
I probably should have got some sleep for once in my life
Chorus:
It’s bittersweet, I just repeat the same routine
Some call it sad, but it’s not bad, just drives me mad
I’ll be just fine, no need to worry, it’s who I am
I venture out into the world at lest once or twice a week
It’s usually to a crowded place, sometimes just right down the street
I sit alone and scan the room, just watching every move
So when they say that my life’s a joke, I won’t miss the punchline
You’re all I ever wanted to be but I can’t stand it
I’ll take the life that was handed to me and learn to own it.

Hello Pt. 2 - Ambition
03:19
|
|||
|
Let’s stay a while
Let’s take it slow
Hello sunshine
Hello beautiful
Hello my misguided soul
Goodbye sadness
Goodbye misery
Goodbye all the loves I’ve known
We’ll drive out west in my rusted out car
We’ll speak of just how fortunate we are
With nothing but some clothes and a guitar
Without you I won’t make it very far
We’ll spend our days reading books and writing songs
And we won’t even care if nobody sings along
We’ll drink too much coffee and never get any sleep
I don’t care where we live as long as you’re mine to keep.
We’ll adopt a dog because it’s cheaper than a kid
And we’ll raise it better than your parents think they did
We’ll get ourselves a house, an apartment built for two
We don’t need anyone else it’s always been just me and you
We’ll always be together til they lower me into the ground
I ust wanna hear your voice, there is no sweeter sound
I don’t know where I’d be without you in my life
But I’m not sure I want to…

Write On Me
04:15
|
|||
|
I won’t be a prop that you play with
I won’t be a part of your devilish game
Always putting on a show,
I won’t be your springboard to success
I won’t be your free ride
Will you ever let this go?
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
I’m a blank page,
will you write on me?
I won’t be your therapy, no
I won’t stand by and watch you drown
Move my emotions around,
I won’t let you dig in deeper
I will die before I’m like you
Turn my whole world upside down.
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
I’m a blank page,
will you write on me?
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
I’m a blank page,
will you write on me?

My Prison
03:48
|

|
Deep inside my prison
Lives the kind of freedom
That you'll never know
In the darkest hour
Comes the strongest power
Feel my hatred grow
No one here above me
No one here to love me
No one down below
Deep inside my prison
Lives the kind of freedom
That you'll never know
Breath me, see me
Want me, feel me
Free me, fight me
Judge me, kill me
Breath me, see me
Want me, feel me
Free me, fight me
Judge me, kill me
Deep inside my prison
Lives the kind of freedom
That you'll never know
In the darkest hour
Comes the strongest power
Feel my hatred grow
No one here above me
No one here to love me
No one down below
Deep inside my prison
Lives the kind of freedom
That you'll never know
Breath me, see me
Want me, feel me
Free me, fight me
Judge me, kill me
Breath me, see me
Want me, feel me
Free me, fight me
Judge me, kill me
Here in the shadows lie all of your precious things
Your darkness and your sorrow, angels without wings
Come back tomorrow, they'll have haunted all of your dreams
It's closer than it seems

Roll down the windows of my Honda CRV
Let your hair fly freely into your eyes
Hold my hand just like you used to
When we were 17 and barely legal
Adjust you seatbelt so that you're facing me
And smile that smile that could tame a thousand beasts
Turn the radio up so loud that we can't hear ourselves thinking
Me and you staring at the stars
Just us two on the roof of my car
Can't say that I want tomorrow to come
Sleep no more don't worry about tomorrow
We might get lost, who needs a path to follow
Just sleep no more and stay with me forever
I can't say when by I promise it gets better
Don't look at me like that you know it makes me weak
The kind of stares that see my beauty underneath
You know I try to hide the feelings I have inside
That's just the teachings of the fathers before me
Not even a year gone by and I've forgot the reasons that I loved you
It's not for a lack of trying but I've forgotten why I loved you
Hello Beautiful
Hello Sunshine

The clock ticks away in time with the beating of my heart.
From the day we met, I knew that we would never be apart.
I fall for the girl who is too shy to speak my name.
So small, I ... I am naive inside your game
Please help me commence my electric heart
You always knew I loved you from the start
I crawl back to you inside you hold the key
Don't leave me with my electric heart
Every single day I smile because I get to see your face
Not ordinary, I'll never be tired of the chase
I fly when you hold me wrapped in your embrace
So I
Can't you see that with you's my favorite place
Please help me commence my electric heart
You always knew I loved you from the start
I crawl back to you inside you hold the key
Don't leave me with my electric heart

Bro, welcome to reality, take a number, take a seat, here with me
The world, it doesn't worship you , your hopes and dreams will all fall through your hands
So practice what you always preach, you cocky and life sucking leech
Yeah, Yeah
Calm your ego and step back, your heart is cold dead and black.
Yeah, Yeah
Try to see it through your eyes but it comes as no surprise now, right now
Just when's it gonna be my turn, oh how I'd love to see you burn
So wrong, So right
So practice what you always preach, you cocky and life sucking leech
Yeah, Yeah
Calm your ego and step back, your heart is cold dead and black.
Yeah, Yeah

Paranoid Disguise
06:34
|
|||
|
You feel like someone's behind you when you're walking down the hall
But when you turn to face them, ain't no one there at all
That little voice in the back of your mind sayin "Ima get you this time"
Feel their eyes press down on you, oh Lord knows they're gonna kill ya this time
Reassure yourself nothings gonna happen tonight
No no, just a trick of the eye, aint nothin to fear, just a paranoid disguise
No no no, just a trick of the eye, aint nothin to fear just a paranoid
No no NO, I saw him with my own two eyes, that devilish figure with murder on his mind
No place to run, no place to hide, just gotta stay and fight and pray salvation comes with morning light
Still you hear that little voice in the back of your mind saying "Ima get you this time"
Feel his hot breath on my neck, oh lord knows he's gonna kill me this time
Reassure yourself nothings gonna happen tonight
If only you could find the courage just to turn on the light
Oh no, just a trick of the eye, aint nothin to fear, just a paranoid disguise
No no, just a trick of the eye, aint nothin to fear, just a paranoid disguise
No no no, ain't no a trick of the eye, he's coming right towards me, ain't no paranoid disguise
No no no, ain't no a trick of the eye, he's coming right towards me, gonna kill me this time
