Clarity
Hurry go on ahead
Good things won't let you wait
Good things won't let you wait
My lungs are so numb from holding back
In a blanket of fear that I've been wrapped in for years
Here you can be anything
And it happens too fast to make sense of it, make it last

Spinning and spinning
Do you believe in what you want?
Do you believe in what you want?
What you wish for won't come true
Live with that, with that
Live with that, with that
As I'm falling in the pit of fire my mind's made up
I'm never coming back here
I'm never coming back here
And how long would it take me
To walk across the United States all alone
To walk across the United States all alone
Didn't mean to leave you hanging on
I didn't mean to leave you all alone
I didn't mean to leave you all alone
Smile, say goodnight
Say goodnight in a breath
Say goodnight in a breath
You are smaller, getting smaller
But I still see you
But I still see you
I'll miss you when you're just like them

Something to Write Home About
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out of reach
You're barely missing me,
I'm missing you and everything you do.
Were you the one for me?
When my friends all say I'm crazy
Don't be gone when I get home
Will you be my, Valentine? If I'm a world away?
Now I'm leaving you alone
To my surprise, before my eyes
You arrive
If you want to try... try to forget it. It's over, I'm gone.

Static Prevails
One chance to show your face
That's one shot all you get
Don't play that game
Out of touch
That's one shot all you get
Don't play that game
Out of touch
We'll dance off time to the songs we've never liked
And sing off key thinking it sounds all right
Run around or jump the fence
And sing off key thinking it sounds all right
Run around or jump the fence
It's harder than it seems, you slip but never fall
We both know things never change
We both know static prevails
They'll take you, when you wont come back to me
I can't believe they knew it, we blew it
Be still
Be silent
We both know static prevails
They'll take you, when you wont come back to me
I can't believe they knew it, we blew it
Be still
Be silent
Starlight star bright
One last good-bye may last the rest of your life

Futures
I always believed in futures
I hope for better
I hope for better
When the dance is through it's me and you
Well you're just across the street
Looks a mile to my feet
I want to go to you
Funny how I'm nervous still
Well you're just across the street
Looks a mile to my feet
I want to go to you
Funny how I'm nervous still
But I won't fight for more
Could it be that everything goes round by chance
Or only one way it was always meant to be
Or only one way it was always meant to be
I loved you
And I should have said it
And I should have said it
I'm still driving away
And I'm sorry every day
And I'm sorry every day
You should just be here
Be with me here
Be with me here
All at once the music stopped
The feeling went away
The feeling went away
We'll never be the same
Never feel this way again
Never feel this way again
I'm done, there's nothing left to show

Ruthless
A letter stamped with location
Written by a boy for a girl
His passions claiming
That he’ld build her a city
Of gold, glass, and stone
A massive monolith to her
Until she acquiesced to him
The fact that love was mutual
He got a postcard back
With a picture of a city on the front
And a few words on the back
“I don’t need a city,
I just need you.”
