You're Only Faking

When your heart and your head tend to sleep in two separate beds
It’s gonna wear you down, it’s gonna tear you apart
When your mind and your soul strike a match to a fork in the road
let it drive you wild, til the wheels come off
Once again, I’m caught by interruption analyzing everything that I said
Oh, I’m giving up on a life filled with excitement
They’ll say I’m fine, guess I’m getting good at fakin’ the nines
With a flaw in the plan, sell the house just to save the land
Either way, you know, you’re gonna lose it all.
Buckle up, start a plan, lay it down, try to take a stand
It’s a chance worth taking, so fake it ‘til it falls apart
Now, it must be me. I’m loved by bad attention and seduced by even worse company.
I fit the cut in suit for mass destruction
Oh they’ll say I’m fine, guess I’m getting good at fakin the nines
You’re only fakin’ the nines

Someone to Love

There’s no safe bet in life except someday that you’ll die
and every corner that you turn will often come with a surprise
only you and you alone will ever know how hard you tried
but if you have someone to love who loves you back you’ll be alright
don’t acknowledge everyone who seems secure in crowded rooms
and I promise they won’t judge you on everything you do
trouble won’t be troublesome when you’re open to the ride
and if you have someone to love who loves you back you’ll be alright
So don’t kick and scream or fear the dream
of living lost and dying alone
we can take it head on wherever it comes and promise not to ever let it go
oh the one thing that I learned is everything I thought I knew I’ve never known
Problems are images made up in our head
things we fear inside should come with less regret
anything that’s haunting you is better to forget
you have someone to love who loves you back and now you’re set

No Heavier Burden

Tiny toy truck
It seems your down and out of luck
You have stumbled here
On stuck
Once again
All to familiar
The place you sang your hallelujah
The pill that’s meant to thrill ya
Often kills you in the end
but forget what they say
By morning break
Time will come wash it away
Feeling remorse will travel its course
The sun can come shining again
So don’t wait
For the perfect timing again
Beautiful mystery
Last night I dreamt that you had kissed me
But awoke to see you missed me
In a message that ya sent
All to familiar
Ya know
A cold that shoots to kill ya
Till it pulls the wool
Over your eyes again
I bet that ya guessed
I gave it my best
As divide pulled it apart
I’ve been pushed to the rocks
And pulled away back to the start
Beautiful mystery
Last night I dreamt that you had kissed me
I awoke to hear the symphony
Of a lonely heart
Beating
Tennessee wind
Let it gaze against your skin
Let it whisper through your hair
Until I’m in your arms again.

Grief Repeating
03:40
|
|||
|
Another night I lie awake and I think for goodness sake
I can’t imagine what I’d be without you here
I’m not one to promise to but I am to promise you
that must take the kind of patience of a saint
To the apple of my eye, my cloak and dagger in disguise
I’m but a parody
an ode to better days
So please release me, good grief repeating
I’ve never been the type for keeping plans
hell or high water, in no order
if can’t means you won’t than I won’t try, til I know that I can
This couldn’t come at a worse time
better off for wrong or right
as for clockwork, time ticks to my mistakes
just a creature of routine, obvious a constant theme
don’t know why you’d ever stick around and wait
Up in the air, on coming down
head in the clouds, feet off the ground
just to disappear without a trace
no I’d never swear it to
do my best and follow through
you can’t imagine just how much it takes
maybe you do
you have the patience of a saint
Chorus
So please don’t leave me, good grief repeating
I’ve never been the type for keeping plans
hell or high water, in no order
if can’t means you won’t, than I won’t try, til I know that I can

Believe You Me
02:44

I’m the type that’s not easy to take
wrapped up in my own minds my only take away
my thoughts stay draggin on and on
they never seem to break
so I stay shook just to keep that shake at bay
I believe in you, believe you me
though I love you hard, you find it harder to receive
The arch above your eye lies perfect etched in disbelief
I believe in you, believe you me
You always have that look, you seem confused
you wear a smile fine, but your eyes, they sing the blues
the heart you hold is heavy, and your screws, they all came loose
the type that holds back, what am I to do
What’s the point of pointing on a face when you can’t face it
There’s no point in turning loose when your loose ends are all laced up
now we act like this is the end of the world
even though we’ve been here before

We All Fall
02:53
|

I’d like to hear the way that you talk
sing and dance between your ears and hope you don’t run off
love may be the shadow that you feared between the dark
so, shine the light on where it went wrong
you say you love the way that I sing
wish that I was there with you
to be your everything
all my intuition says to slow it down and breathe
now your mind is tangled and weaved
See it’s a messy situation from the start
every time you open up your closed down by your heart
the walls been built on stilts but it’s the fence that we sit on
teetering in hopes to fall off
So, what’s the point in falling apart
stumble through the infant stage
before you run amuck
tie em’ tight and ride it out
or get your socks knocked off
feed the fire under your hot
I promise we can play make believe
I’ll be the coin behind your ear
the ace within your sleeve
the rabbits’ foot you hold, the disappointment that you need
the double down that turns into threes
Yeah, we all fall down
Shy and short of everything, we want it all right now
beggin’ for our turn, but we all get so turned around
time will let you figure it out
