1.
Like an asshole I wagered everything I own I played the way I played before Like a boy who never grows I’m waiting with the engine running on She’s gone I’m staring at the phone I'm scared to death I'll die alone
2.
Communicant 02:56
We were born bent over and over Borne aloft, they circle away Belonging to your sunlight and clover Wood and water hold us and pray Done for One day But bright again along the way Done for One day But fire grows in our graves Everything you’ve shown me is holy And everything we know will decay There’s just enough time and it’s lonely But in just a few moments, we’re made We’ll be ashes someday We’ll be ashes someday Your heart will heal anyway Your heart will heal anyway
3.
Turn on a dime Make me a liar Let’s fly blind Beginning in wonder You show what you don’t know Try at all and fuck up Has it been too long Or am I all wrong? I just wanted to be there I don’t know what I can offer you But I’m a fool and I can’t lie to you I loved who came pouring out of you But who is who?
4.
Float away Floating free Please don’t wait for me I don’t deserve such lovely company Try my feelings on for size I’m not strong enough for goodbyes Smile at me right on through I won’t say that I love you Let’s pretend that I don’t have to Every time you don’t say when, I die I die Always ready with a steady Hand to sail an empty sea Sick to death of being me Starving in a land of plenty You’re not in love if you don’t feel like You’ve never been in love like this before
5.
Tomorrow please or yesterday Tonight I can’t release or please or hide this injury I wish I knew what you could mean The words we chose betrayed you Made a liar out of me I’ll move you I know how to So what if we ran away? I scared you and you scared me Can we make that night Turn out right on the wrong day? So tell me you don’t want to see I can’t handle all of what you want to say to me We waited long enough to be A future that won’t come true I don’t trust you or me
6.
What have I been thinking in the deep end over there? That I could turn that water into wine? When you think of sinking, in the end it’s only fair That what I thought was ours was only mine Only mine Another lesson learned, apparently no worse for wear But everybody knows we’re full of shit And notwithstanding where you’re standing now or how we’ll fare From where I stand we get one chance That’s it Let’s see how far underwater we can go Because we take to water like two babies wearing water wings So baby just forget about the fathoms full of all these nasty things
7.
I’m outside at last and standing alone The air I knew blows by and goes It’s cold and nothing that I know grows In fourteen years in the dark Fourteen years in the dark Fourteen years of talking to no one Fourteen years we’re apart Gilded and gold, missing a key Heavy and old, bury it deep I know just what you wanted for me Those dreams were yours to keep for Fourteen years in the dark Fourteen years of being your son Fourteen years of no one You couldn’t make a home I couldn’t even try Down along the highway almost Riding shotgun to your lonely ghost Dead along the highway almost Riding shotgun to your lonely ghost Held onto your lonely ghost
