Her Whim

She cuts me like a knife and molds me to her whim
Like I've waited all my life for the moment to begin
If everything she says is true
How could I not love you?
If everything they say is true
How could I not love you?

Surveillance

My curiosity got the best of me
An innocent way to look and see
I felt it happen so deep in the night
Didn't mean to pry but didn't try to do right
My curiosity got the best of me
Now I don't sleep I'm so full of worry
When a little trust was the least to be done
Went looking for a beast and found one

Little Things

I can't explain away how you always make me want to stay
It made me smile today, I don't know how you make me feel this way
It's in every little thing you say
Every little thing you say

Skates

Out on the lake, hand near hand
Glasses getting fogged up from blowing hot air
A line on your face told me you'd take a lap on your own
Every way that I look at you, in the light
Searching for a kind of meaning
You fell on the ice but said
"There's some life in these old blades yet"
There's some life in these old blades yet
Get down so you can get up again
Feel the weight of the words that were said
There's some life yet
And I know the truth is coming in slow
I'm down here on my knees
Sometimes life gets slippery
So you wanted to know if I was on your side
Should be black and white
I could never forgive myself to be the one to let you go
Every way that I look through you, clear and bright
I wonder if I'm all in my head
And when the ice shatters
We can thaw each other out
There's some life in these old blades yet
Get down so you can get up again
Feel the weight of the words that were said
There's some life yet
And I know the truth is coming in slow
I'm down here on my knees
Sometimes life gets away from me

Don't Let Me
04:03
|

Come a time when people you meet
Wear on you completely
Understanding that you don't really need to be
Out where everything is so real
People say what they say
Into their phones on the subway
Let's change cars or get off at the next stop
Thank God
God damn
Come and take me as I am
It's not a weak will it's just ready to drop
Don't let me
People say what they say
Doesn't get to me
Keep on rolling that ol' stone up the hill
I don't see you wrapped up in my heart
A memory
A dream to be
A one-in-a-mil
Don't let me

See Myself Out
03:48

Looking in the mirror I could see right through my skin
First post-mortem of the morning told me I was in for
Being stuck with all those places that I'd been before
The grocery store
The liquor store
The record store
The liquor store...
Living a loop that turns out just-so
Another day gone along with the flow
I can see myself out
I can see myself
I read the writing on the ruins of the wall and walked right by
Give me the time of day I might not make it but I'll try
Sorry for dropping in, I hope that you don't mind
But then I can see myself out just fine
I can see myself out
I can see myself
I can see...
I can...
I...
