Piling It On
02:19
|

Finally I'll lose all feeling in my face
Smiling always felt like crying anyway
That's why I pile it on, pile it on
Oh what potential, what a waste
But you can swallow anything as long as you've got the taste for it
Pilot light's not on, pilot light's not on
In lucid moments I would rather be insane, in some lucid moments I would rather be insane
That's why I'm piling it on, piling it on
Finally I'll lose all feeling in my face
And celebrate tomorrow as if it was yesterday
That's why I'm piling it on, piling it on
I'll celebrate tomorrow as if it was yesterday
And elevate my sorrow into some glorious blazes
Pilot light's not on, pilot light's not on

Little Things
02:11
|
|||
Things haven't been fine
Just because you can't say why don't mean that you're not right
The little things, they're everything
I'm gonna get right
It'll be painful but, as you know, I don't mind a little fighting

Matchmaker
02:03
|

I am a selfish man who's trying to change
I am the devil's hands and the dog obeying
I am the hopeful heart and the child praying
The trees, the fields, the reckless swaying
I can't believe the way you love me
No, I can't believe it
I am the world at war and the dead decaying
I am the final score, the shore where the tide is breaking
Your thirsty, your poor, your forsaken
So perfect, so pure, than flurrying and flaking
I am the overture and the undertaking
I will kill my destroyer before I meet my maker
I am a selfish man who's trying to change
I am the devil's hands and the dog obeying
I am the overture and the undertaking
I will kill my destroyer before I meet my maker

Scratch The Surface
02:57
|

Let your nails grow out
Let them grow out for this
For this is where you scratch
Scratch the surface
Crack your knuckles
Crack your windows
Buckle your belt
Step in the puddles
Pedal faster
Yeah, you've moved past this
Let your nails grow out
Let them grow out for this
For this is where you scratch
Scratch the surface
Hurry up and burn this
After you've heard this
Forget this
If you're to learn this

Other Times You Die
02:17
|
|||
I locked my keys in the car again
Everything that can happen to me usually does
I locked my keys in the car again
Can you believe we almost were just friends?
Everything that can happen to me usually does
Sometimes the sky just up and opens up
Other times you die and you're brought back to life by love

Opaquing
02:35
|
|||
The chords are changing
They're less opaquing
But I don't want you to fuck off
The words, the ways, the phrases we say and the things we don't
I won't give you the fuck off

Every Night
03:53
|

I want to write a song about you every night
And when I can't I feel like shit isn't alright
I want to write a song about you every day
And when I can't I feel like shit isn't okay
I want to write a song about you every time I see you
And when I can't I feel like shit may not still be cool
I want to write a song about you all the time so much
And when I can't I feel like I am losing touch
I want to write a song about you every way I can
And when I can't I'm worried that I'm not worthy to be your man
I want to write a song about you every minute
And when I can't I feel like such a dumb shit

Not What You Think
02:29
|
|||
I can barely wrap my head around my lips
I can barely curl my heart into a fist
When I'm punchdrunk I can't remember how to flinch
I can barely bring myself to the brink
But look now I've brought the kitchen sink
It's everything but it's not what you think
It's everything but it's not what you think
And a couple things that you thought it might've been
It's the salve and the sting, I'd rather have everything than nothing

Complacence, magnificence, reticence
Innocence, in a sense
Confidence, providence, disobedience
Innocence, in a sense
We got a hotel for St. Patrick's Day
But we hadn't been fighting the usual way
You left the bar and stayed out all night
I walked the streets, screaming your name, until I was too tired
I'm still trying to believe that I can be happy

Shittiness
03:14
|
|||
I guess I always knew things would get better
And of course they did
So now as they get good, god, please let me remember where I've been
'Cause I don't want to fuck this up, I don't want to lose you
I always knew things couldn't stay shitty forever
Of course they didn't
So now as they get good, god, please let me remember the shttiness

Happy Last New Year

Happy last new year
Of course now I want to be here
Just when I get it together
The world starts ending
Are you kidding me?
Happy last new year
Though I want to make clear
I'm not laying down, I'm just worried
That the world is ending, I'm not kidding you
Happy last new year
Of course now I want to be here
Yeah, I'm in love with you and you know it
And the world is ending
Are you kidding me?
