EVIDENCE
As good as it was
How quickly I forget
no one ever notices
The evidence
What a fucking mess
We find ourselves in
If drowning was my first offense
Well here I go again
Now you’re giving me up
I’m hanging on
You’re giving me up
I’m hanging on
As foolish as i was
There’s something I regret
Leaving you cold as ice in Connecticut
In the name of diligence
I found out where you went
Surrendered to the promise that
I won’t be him again
Now you’re giving me up
I’m hanging on
Please forgive me I’m not
Not who I was
Not who you loved
As foolish as it was remember I wish you way more than luck
EVIDENCE
A MODERN LIFE
Carried Away
look at where we find ourselves
what we have when all else fails us but
some get bored and some just cry
some try to leave the worst behind
but I want to live
And get carried away with my friends
Cause we’re all in this
waiting for the nightmare to end
But every single day
Gets easier to turn away
But every single day
It’s easy to get carried away
Carried away
I feel lost in time and space
faked the smile that’s on my face now cause
some get bought and some get sold
like Mr. Rogers bless his soul
We all want to resist
Can i carry the weight of my friends?
We were once just kids
waiting for our nightmares to end
But every single day
Gets easier to turn away
But every single day
It’s easy to get carried away
Carried away
Want to be
To be carried away with my friends
Want to be
To be carried away with my friends
Carried away with with my friends
But every single day
Gets easier to turn away
But every single day
It’s easy to get carried away
Dream Never Dies
Long ago taken roads
we don’t know on our own
Lockin’ eyes late at night, butterflies
Hold me the rest of my life
Tell me you feel it right?
Let this go, whats the use
the more you know the more we lose
what if I said to you, we’ll never be
Now you know what its like
It’s not just me am I right
What happened to all the easy days of summer?
back when we were younger
Dreaming through the thunder
Radio was blasting, heavens everlasting
If i could make it last and all I have to do is close my eyes
Hope the dream never dies
Hope the dream never dies
Trying hard just to stay
Safe guard yesterday
Lost eyes, late at night tell me why
stay here the rest of my life
promise me you’ll try
now we’re getting older what will we remember?
Morning drives in winter
The world we knew is over
radio still blasting, summer’s everlasting
if I could bring you back
and all I have to do is close my eyes
Hope the dream never dies
Hope the dream never dies
Hope the dream never dies
Hope the dream never dies
Hope we make it out alive
What happened to all the easy days of summer?
Back when we were younger
Dreaming through the thunder
Radio still blasting, heavens everlasting
If i could make it last
What happened to all the easy days of summer?
Back when we were younger
Dreaming through the thunder
Radio still blasting, heavens everlasting
If I could bring you back and all I have to do is close my eyes
Hope the dream never dies
Hope the dream never dies
Hope we make it out alive
Expectations
This is bigger
Then the two of us
Little triggers
I keep feeling in my gut
Kept my eyes closed
I was too afraid to see
Sometimes good friends
are gonna take what they want and just leave
When I was sixteen
I had such big dreams
but I was born with let down
expectations
Let it build up
Buried it deep inside
New York highline
Was the last time that we felt alive
When I was sixteen
I had such big dreams
but I was born with let down
expectations
It’s getting kinda hard
It’s getting kinda hard
not to blame myself
For wanting something else
When I was sixteen
I had such big dreams
but I was born with let down
expectations
It’s getting kinda hard not to blame myself
Expectations
It’s getting kinda hard not to blame myself
Expectations
It’s getting kinda hard not to blame myself
Expectations
It’s getting kinda hard not to blame myself
Modern Life
I fall apart on the 405
When I hear you in my head as the engine dies
You said in the dark will you recognize?
when the bright lights turn to red
will you run and hide?
tell me you’re afraid yea you’re afraid like me?
I wanna disappear, but Im stuck on repeat
Do you ever get the feeling everybody’s leaving
Just right when you need em
Oh my God I try
to find a meaning, something to believe in
tell me am I dreaming?
Or is this modern life?
I’m alone in the dead of night
As I read the words you said in the pale blue light
Now I know you can blame the times
But when the bright lights turn to red
Will you recognize?
Do you know that you’re afraid, you’re afraid like me
But nothing ever changes when you’re stuck on repeat
Do you ever get the feeling everybody’s leaving
Just right when you need em
Oh my God I try
to find a meaning, something to believe in
tell me am I dreaming?
Or is this modern life?
Why do I get the feeling everybody’s leaving
Give me a meaning something to believe in
tell me am I dreaming?
Or is this modern life?
Or is this modern life?
Raincoats
Now it’s all gone way too far
I don’t understand who we are
Under raincoats
I don’t feel alone
All the fairy tales we’ve bought
All my dreams lost in the dark
Under raincoats
I don’t feel alone
Is there no better way
Is there no way to save us?
Just take my hand
No there’s always a chance
Under raincoats
I don’t feel alone
Watch me as I run
Watch me as I run to the edge of this
Listen to my heart
Listen to my heart beat
Is it too fast?
Am I too far?
Oh here I go again
Oh here I go again!
Listen to my heart
Listen to my heart beat
Is it too fast?
Am I too far?
Oh here I go again
Oh here I go again!
Oh here we go again
Listen to my heart
Listen to my heart beat
Is it too fast?
Am I too far?
I wanna go again
I wanna go again
Listen to my heart
Listen to my heart beat
Is it too fast?
Am I too far?
I wanna go again
I wanna go again
Oh here we go again!
Oh here we go again!
Oh here we go again!
Oh here we go again!
Now here we are stuck right in the middle of it
Now here we are stuck right in the middle of it
Now here we are stuck right in the middle of it
Now here we are stuck right in the middle of it
Now here we are stuck right in the middle of it
Now here we are stuck right in the middle of it
Now here we are stuck right in the middle of it
Now here we are stuck right in the middle of it
Digging Up The Dead
You said you’ve had enough for a while
But we keep ending up here in denial
The skeletons we hid in our past
Haunt us they won’t stop coming back
babe you should know
i tried to let go
but ya keep
Digging up the dead
Digging up the dead
Digging up the dead in me
but ya keep
digging up the dead
digging up the dead
digging up the dead in me
I hear the ringing of the cathedral bells
They’re singing while l’m losing myself
Dying here with all my beliefs
Laying crosses on the red winter leaves
I know what I know
I need to let go
But I keep
Digging up the dead
Digging up the dead
Digging up the dead in me
But I keep
Digging up the dead
Digging up the dead
Digging up the dead in me
I want you to know
I try to let go
But it's building up inside of me
Now I’m buried in it six feet deep
does that me weak?
Make me weak
make me weak
Does that make me weak?
Digging up the dead
Digging up the dead
digging up the dead in me
But ya keep
digging up the dead
digging up the dead
digging up the dead in me
Does that make me weak?
Does it make me weak?
Make me weak
Does it make me weak?
Make me weak
Does it make me weak?
Does that make me weak
Does it make me weak?
Eyes On The Prize
Fuck all your friends
They got no passion
What kind of icon
Never drawn blood
I thought you a legend
In your daddy’s car
Got found in the desert
But lost your heart
You’re trying but not too hard
Cause fighting’s just a lost art
I still got my eyes on the prize
I’d rather be dead
Then stuck in the vacuum
Where everyone’s so proud
Of who they’re not
Don’t need a break
I got what I got
So what if it’s nothing still taking my shot
Fighting for a small part
Failing with a big heart
Still got my eyes on the prize
Every night I feel it coming
Hunts me down but I keep running
Like a hurricane
Rushing through my brain
I’d rather be dead
Then live with no passion
You’re trying but not too hard
Cause fightings just a lost art
Still got my
Still got my
Still got me eyes on the prize
Every night I feel it coming
Hunts me down but I keep
Eyes on the prize
Every night I feel it coming
Hunts me down but I keep
Eyes on the prize
Every night I feel it coming
Hunts me down but I keep running
Stop
You told me that you wanted
something I couldn’t offer
the well is dry exhausted
now I don’t see the point in guessing
I’m over here obsessing
Oh god it’s so depressing
One by one, fall back in line in sequence
Communions save the demons
keeps everyone believing
feels like, maybe you’ll never see it
the way I do it’s easy, we’re all looking for meaning
so why do I
give you all that I’ve got
when all that I’ve got
will never be enough
And in your eyes
I see all that I’m not
And all that I’ve lost will never be enough
While I sank to the bottom
You sang him Dolly Parton
Don’t think that I’ve forgotten
what it felt like to be another
thousand wounds left to suffer
Wonder how I’ll recover
so why do I
give you all that I’ve got
when all that I’ve got
will never be enough
And in your eyes
I see all that I’m not
And all that I’ve lost will never be enough
For you, for us, oh God is it ever gonna stop?
For you, for us, oh God is it ever gonna stop?
Are you all getting
All getting what you came for?
Are you all getting
All getting what you came for?
So why do I
Give you all that I’ve got
When all that I’ve got will never be enough
And in your eyes, I see all that I’m not
And all that I’ve lost
Will never be enough
For you, for us, oh God is it ever gonna stop?
For you, for us, oh God is it ever gonna stop?
Ever gonna stop
For you, for us, oh God is it ever gonna stop?
For you, for us, oh God is it ever gonna stop?
FOR ME IT’s YOU
Just when I felt like given up
That I shouldn’t try
To save it now
Easier lost outside of us
That’s not what I find
This time around
Every night outside my window I pretend to catch the moon
It reminds me that there’s always something more for me to prove
I’m just waiting for the moment when you tell me this is true
I’m just waiting on a moment for you
To tell me how you feel
Always known for me it’s you
So give me something real
Always known for me it’s you
It’s you
Standing alone at 25
I barely recognize
My own blue eyes
I should’ve known, we’d make it right
I’m coming back this time
to a different life
where the lights outside my window flicker brighter than the moon
like a car chase in the valley baby its just me and you
where we’re living in the moment when you tell me that it’s true
now I’m right here in this moment with you
So tell me how you feel
Always known for me it’s you
Just give me something real
Always known for me it’s you
FOR ME IT’S YOU
LM1
THIS IS IT
Parallel love
Innocently vacant
On the edge of breaking
Shouldn’t keep me waiting
Yesterday’s drugs
Should never be taken
I fell into rotation
Surrendered mistaken
This is it
This is it now
This is it
I’d kill the hallowed cow
Holding on impatient
But nothing left is sacred
There’s no way to save this
This is it!
This is it now!
This is it!
Put me out
Outta my cage
Outta my brain
Out in the sunshine
LOVELESS
Crosses in the distance, bells ring fast
Loveless in our shelter, time will pass
Would you take a chance on us?
Could you take a chance on us?
Call out to the lonely with regrets
Loveless is your answer, time will pass
Couldn’t take a chance on us
Couldn’t take a chance on us
Take my hand
In belief we trace our steps
Understand
No relief in silhouettes
Battled myself so many times
What I was isn’t what I want now
We can seek denial and search for miles
Blessed love, the love I need
Rolling drums, the loveless bleed
Take my hand
In belief we trace our steps
Understand
No relief in silhouettes
The Right Thing
I sang
A song with no words
It sounded absurd
But it brought my numbers up
"Fair game"
Or whatever works
For better or worse
Who are you to be the judge?
Too late
What's done is done
It's only begun
No better time to hide your face
Clean break
I pray for the sun
C'mon c'mon
You know it's so
Hard to do the right thing
I can't do the right thing now
So hard to do the right thing
I can't do the right thing now
This takes
An army to play
There's no other way
How long can you can I face the blame
Save me
I knew all along
Now there's no one
I know it's so
Hard to do the right thing
I can't do the right thing now
So hard to do the right thing
I can't do the right thing now
So hard to do the right thing
I can't do the right thing now
Right thing now
All this time
Was I wrong is it gone forever?
All this time
So hard to do the right thing
I can't do the right thing now
So hard to do the right thing
I can't do the right thing now
THORNS
We walked through the fire
How did we ever survive this?
We tangled the wire
And hid behind what’s emptiness
But
No one can love you
No one can love you the same
I’ll always want you
I’ll always want you this way
We’ll learn to outgrow
The thorns on the rose
Thorns on the rose
Thorns on the rose
We tripped through time
But, we were only children then
So we couldn’t find
That we’d hold on beginning to end
Yea
No one can love you
No one can love you the same
I’ll always want you
I’ll always want you this way
We’ll learn to outgrow
The thorns on the rose
Thorns on the rose
Tried To Make You My Own
Do what I have to do to get myself in
I know I never had a heart of gold
And now I'm crawling in and out of your skin
I only open doors that I can't close
I, I wanna learn you
All from the inside
So, you won't forget
Right, right when I burned you
I felt the last cry
There was nothing left
I tried to make you my own
Sometimes I feel that I am what I deserve
A hundred crimes, no way to pay them off
So when quiet fills the night and you hurt
Know I am sorry for all that you lost
I, I had to learn you
All from the inside
My deepest regret
Right, right when I burned you
I made the last cry
I'm all that is left
Tried to make you my own
My Money
Twisted through so deep
Everything you see is make believe
Castles in your sleep
You never seem to reach but in dreams
Day after day
Spiral out in doubt
I give, you take
This is not what it's about
Don't marry me for my money
I've got this love for you honey
It's baby blue
I'll carry you if you trust me
I know it's hard for you lately to take a view
Every stone you throw
I see through
I know what you mean
Silently and slow you catch every blow underneath
Day after day
Spiral out in doubt
I give, you take
This is not what it's about
Don't marry me for my money
I've got this love for you honey
It's baby blue
I'll carry you if you trust me
I know it's hard for you lately to take a view
I'm tied to this
Caught wrist to wrist
Tell me what, tell me what to do
Don't marry me for my money
I've got this love for you honey
It's baby blue
I'll carry you if you trust me
I know it's hard for you lately to take a view
Real Love
I used to follow my heart
But now I'm safe in the dark
You used to run to my arms
Oh how that's lost its charm
Now we're crawling on our bellies
With an army of ghosts
Of do's and don'ts
Is there something you should tell me?
In you I see…
I do, I don't, I do, I don't
'Cause when it's
Real
Real Love
You try to fix it but the damage is done
'Cause when it's
Real
Real Love
You try to fix it but it's never enough
Our faith purest island
Lost in the setting sun
Was perfect when it began
Was over when it begun
Now we're crawling on our bellies
With an army full of ghosts, of do's and don'ts
And when there's something you should tell me
In you I see…
I do, I don't, I do, I don't
'Cause when it's
Real
Real Love
You try to fix it but the damage is done
'Cause when it's
Real
Real Love
You try to fix it but it's never enough
Camouflage
Looking out, empty streets
Could've been forced to talk
Gather 'round, forced to leave
Could've been lost in stock
Never hear the sound
Never hear the sound
Why don't we call this what we know it is?
Why don't we call this what we know it is?
Put the ghost to bed
WONDERFUL LIFE
Here we are
Here we are again my love at last
It’s not the first time
It’s not the last time
And will you know it’s me?
Will you rest with me?
You can tell now
It’s a wonderful life
Heavens will fall
When you’re back by my side
When you’re back by my side
It’s a Wonderful life
Heavens will fall
When you’re back by my side
Hand in hand
Every heart’s not made to last
Now I know
Staring at the moon
I’d pull it down to you
Will you know it’s me?
Will you notice me?
You can tell now
It’s a wonderful life
Heavens will fall
When you’re back by my side
When you’re back by my side
It’s a Wonderful life
Heavens will fall
When you’re back by my side
Now I’ll never know
Is there one way out?
I’m already gone
Is it over this time?
When I’m back by your side
When I’m back by your side
With you back by my side
It’s a wonderful life
I’ll never know
I’ll never know
All In
Silver ridge bends in the dead of night
I can drive this street with my eyes closed
Count the windows just to see the light
Will I lose my mind if I let this go?
Now your love never lets me down
In my dreams, I've got my feet on the ground
And when we're lost in the lights downtown
You can look up
The stars always love you, and I'm all in
It was touch and go for the longest time
Inside you know I'm still confused
When you said there's nothing left to hide
If I beg borrow now we'll never lose
Now your love never lets me down
In my dreams, I've got my feet on the ground
And when we're lost in the lights downtown
You can look up
The stars always love you, and I'm all in
I'll never love again
Now your love never lets me down
In my dreams, I've got my feet on the ground
And when we're lost in the lights downtown
You can look up
When it's love
