Impressive

I've been hearing things, and I'd like to let you know
That typically I'd hear them and then just let them go
But at the frequency I hear, it's clear to me you need a hand
So go ahead, blame me, cause unlike you I can take it like a man
So go ahead and tell them all, stick with what you know
Because all you do is talk, and you put on such a show
So go ahead and tell them all about how you are the reason
That we're anything at all. We're glad you know you're so impressive
In my defense I've done my best to try to clear the air
Called and stopped by, but conveniently you're never there
So if you wanna hide that's fine, but know that you have made this mess
And every minute that goes by just makes me care even less
So take a shot and drink your beer, then light a cigarette
Mix in some prescription pills, soon you'll just forget
That one by one you've lost all the respect of friends you had
So bottoms up, cause here's to you and stabbing good friends in the back

A set of whites that have caught me in a trance
I don't recall anyone affecting me like this
I mean, I don't know anything at all
Except how badly I would love just to hold her hand
I've left the ground, and I'm not sure when I'm gonna land
I mean, I don't know anything at all
All I know is she's got, she's got
Something, something I need and my
Heart beats, my heart beats me every time
I look in, look in her eyes and I
Won't be able to rest until I make her mine
So then I start to second-guess my confidence
From brain to mouth, the words stopped making any sense
Of course, I don't know anything at all
Except the room we're in growing smaller by the minute
And the fading voices of everyone within proving
I don't know anything at all
She's got me, there's nothing I can do to pull myself away
To be honest, I don't want to
With one look she steals my heart away
I'd do anything, cause she's got, she's got

Uh Oh
03:35

I've never been good with words
Well, at least not the sweet kind
Somehow when she's around, it's like I just lose my mind
And I know, I know I should just leave it alone
But I won't, I won't
I keep getting in my way
And my friends say I'm crazy
A girl like that would never go for a guy like me
And I know, I know that I should listen to them
But I won't, I won't, I won't
And uh oh, uh oh
I get that feeling and I
Don't know, don't know
How she keeps stealing all the air from my lungs
And leaving all the words stuck on my tongue
It's like I'm not even here
Ran me over as she walked by
Dust off my clumsy words and bad pickup lines
And I know, I know that I can't leave her alone
And I won't, I won't
I try to work up the nerve
Hope to God I don't stutter
My thrown together letters never end up as words
And I know, I know, I should leave it alone
But I won't, I won't, I won't
Now I know that she's so out of my league
But I just can't stop, I keep thinking
Just wait and see, she's gonna notice me
Yeah, I know that she's so out of my league
I've never been good with words
Well, at least not the sweet kind

Keep On
03:21

Lately I've had a hard time trying to fall asleep
And I've tried everything from medications all the way to counting sheep
But I just end up creating a crippling addiction
To things I swore I'd never need - oh
I laid awake in bed last night through a thousand dreams
And I began to think that everything I want is so far out of reach
But then I looked at you and knew my dream was lying right here next to me
So I say
We keep on dreaming of all we can be
And I don't have much, but I have you
So let's keep on dreaming, and I'll keep believing
Because I know that dreams come true
And my proof is that I have you
Now I try so hard to be good company
But sometimes my ADD gets the best of me
So busy trying to reach the stars
That I forget about the flowers at my feet
Then something makes you laugh
And I quickly remember that you are all I need
Cause your smile lifts me up whenever I am down
Your eyes, they ease the pain from when I've hit the ground
And the truth is my dream was always you
And baby you're the reason I know dreams come true
Yeah I'll keep on, cause I have you

Mirror Mirror

Is this who I am? Is this who I've always been?
Is this who I'll be when I finally reach the end?
I've heard it said that people can't change
Well if all of that's true am I destined to stay
Just who I am, just who I've always been?
Cause when I look in the mirror
Nothing seems to get any clearer
So I keep asking you Mirror Mirror
Is this still the face that you remember?
I'm stuck in a stare
Is there anyone there?
And I'm still asking you Mirror Mirror
Is this the face of the man that you remember? Do you remember?
Is this who I am?
Is this who I've always been?
Why can't I forget and why can't I just pretend
All of the things I wish I hadn't done
Were all just bad dreams that burned away with the sun
Is this who I am?
Is this who I've always been?
Am I still who you met?
Am I changed by regret?
Do I still look like me?
Am I who you thought I'd be?
Because I lie when I speak
Tell the truth when I sing.
But lately I don't sing anything
So who am I expecting you to see?

Dancing In Your Dreams
03:33

Feels so weird being here when you feel so distant
Can you hear me, are we disconnected
Are you there, anywhere, did I somehow miss it
There might be something that I'm just not getting
Right in front of me, I watch you sleep
And don't know what you're thinking
You've got this way of hiding away from me
But you're not as far as you seem
If I could just get through, I know I would hear you say
You're dancing in your dreams
Na na na, na na na, na na na na na na…
I've been home all alone, counting every second
Waiting for a call that's just not coming
There's no trace of your face, still I can't forget it
I wish I could stop my mind from running
Here inside my head, your silhouette is all that keeps me going
You're a million miles away, and there's so much left to say
You're a million miles away from me, dancing in your dreams

Beautiful and Blind
03:26
|

When the daylight fades, I only see the dark
She lies awake and counts the stars
When summer goes away, I only feel the cold
She looks for somebody to hold
She picks me up when I am breaking
Always finds me when I am lost
Her heart is built to take it
My heart is complicated
She thinks love is an easy thing to find
My heart has seen it all and
Her heart is beautiful and blind
When it falls apart
I feel like it's the end
She finds a way to start again
And after all the scars, when I feel so alone
She shows me how to let it go
She holds me down when I am shaking
Won't give up when I'm giving in
To the way love makes a person beat down, weak
And so imperfect, she finds love in a place that I can't feel
She feels hope when it starts to fade away
Much too brave, and unafraid to fall
And she's so beautiful
Beautiful and blind
And I think she's changing my mind...

Back Home

I spend a lot of my time drinking
But I have to say I've spend more thinking
Of what we could be
And I'm not sure where to go now
Cause lately every time I close my eyes
I picture you and me
And I keep trying to run away, cause being here is killing me
I've never felt so alone
I'll never forget her
I gave up everything we had, and went out on my own
When the drugs never get me high enough
And this alcohol goes down so rough
I keep trying but I can't let her go
And I just wanna go back home
If only I could swallow my pride
Instead of trying to hide all this pain that I've been in
My nights could be less cold and lonely
Cause lately every time I close my eyes, I picture you with him
Trapped motionless here, I wish I hadn't turned into this
For so long I thought if there's one thing I knew
Of all the things I would miss
You'd be the last on that list
But I found out what I miss the most is you

Wrong Place, Right Time
02:49

Here we go again
Obligation's pulling me around
Take a breath and then
Dive in a sea of people that just keep dragging me down
Because when I arrived I saw you look me in the eyes
I know you know what I have in mind
I say we ditch on this party
But baby that don't mean we can't have a real good time
Follow me girl, I guarantee
I will show you the time of your life
I'm sure I'm probably the last guy here you wanted to see
But I know and you know you love the way I make your scream
Why don't we set aside our past, and baby don't try to hide
How badly you want me
I've been running so long that I don't even feel the pain
And I've been running so long, so long from you
Whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa oh, oh whoa

Not Now
03:54

He's pacing back and forth
With every number dialed but one
Seems every time he tries to call, his hands start to go numb
His heart begins to race
Her favorite song begins to play
She picks up halfway through
And he hears her say, "I can't do this"
Not now, it's too late
Don't say anything
Not now
Oh oh oh…
And during the time that's passed
She's tried her best to push away
The urge to call him back
But she stopped fighting it today
Her heart begins to race
His favorite song begins to play
He picks up halfway through
And she hears him say, "I can't do this"
I don't want to have to love you anymore
Though there may have been a chance for us before
I don't want to have to love you
Cause I've learned to live without you
But it hurts so much to miss you
I can't do this…
Oh oh oh… oh oh oh oh…

Falling to Pieces
04:45

It feels like they're coming at me, from all sides
It feels like I've got nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
It feels like I'm never good enough
It feels like I'm always just trying
Sometimes I feel like I should give up
And sometimes I feel like I'm dying
I'm falling to pieces but nobody knows
I'm falling to pieces but won't let it show
I'm hanging from Parasails that are wearing out
I'm crashing down as my dreams fade out
I've been falling to pieces for what feels like forever
Can somebody put me back together?
I'm tracing my steps back to before I fell apart
Always knew times would get tough, never thought they'd get this hard
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But sometimes I'm still holding on
To late nights in the car
Staring at the stars with passion in our hearts, but it's gone
Inside of a perfect storm
That's left me with my sails all torn
Refusing any chance to bail
All my lines are frayed and frail
I'm hanging from Parasails

Leaving
03:51

8am he woke up alone
Stayed up all night waiting by the phone
She said she was gonna call by six o' clock so they could hang out all night
Ten till five he was dressed and ready to go
He laid there underneath the sheets wishing he could go back to sleep
But he had to get ready to go because at twelve his plane was gonna leave
At the age of 17…
She knew he was leaving
But she didn't care enough to
Show up or say goodbye
And now he's leaving it's time to fly
He was leaving
But she didn't care enough to
Show up or say goodbye
And now he's leaving it's time to fly
Out of her life
His lonely flight took so long
And on that night he wrote this song
