1. SUNRISE

When did my friends start doing cocaine and complaining?
I'm not complaining
I'm feeling better but I can't explain why it's fading
But it's fading

Through sunsets and sunrise can you see in my eyes
The sunset and sunrise
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

I just figured out the reason
But I won't ever say a word
And the sidewalk's leading me today
So I guess I'm gonna be okay

Through sunrise and sunsets we piss under bridges
I appreciate all the small things I'm fine
When we're walking and talking through playgrounds and downtown
Laughing and smiling at least most of the time
Through sunsets and sunrise


2. MAPS

You don't know why I say these things, but it's ok
I'm just tired, and stressed over back in the day
She said don't you ever miss those days?
I just miss those records shops, and the nights I got to stay, it's ok

[Chorus]
It's what I need
Don't forget me
You fall in love, too easily
So I'll just forget the world
So I'll just forget the world

I surrender, this feeling of regret
'Cause I really think I'd rather look ahead and just forget
I'm just full of problems that make you feel alone
And you know I like to talk, but I'll just take the long way home

It's not hard to remind yourself why you tried
This open road and a song to sit by your side
I'm just scared of the doubt
But I won't let it last, yeah I'll forget about that

[Chorus]


3. NOTHING CAN KILL THE GRIMACE

This night is something else, I guess I missed the mark
I'll show up late again, so I can count the stars

And stay outside until I freeze
It's what I want not what I need
And we can sing in harmony

I look around this room, I try to plan my escape
I told my friends I'd leave the house, I guess I made a mistake

The windows down so I can freeze
'Cause if their not I'll fall asleep
'Cause everyone has fallen asleep

I'm so tired of everyone I know
And cigarette smoke and attempts at parties
And their all drunk and stoned, while I just sit at home
And write words to songs, so I don't feel alone
And I'm not saying that I'm any better
But at least I do all my dumb shit at home
'Cause everyone's the same, and everyone is lame
But they can sing bad songs and dance ironically

So fuck the world, now I feel a little better
I don't care what's on your mind, I'm feeling happier today
I haven't changed at all, which is something that I'm proud of
'Cause it's more than you can say

So fuck the world, they don't understand it
I couldn't do it if I planned it, it just happened this way
And all this time, at least it isn't wasted
I've got stars that I'm still chasing
I don't know why I complain


4. AND IF WE BOTH FALL?

Caffeine puts me to sleep
I know it's weird but I keep
Thinking maybe I was born at the wrong time
Hey, we'll make the best of the days
I'm broke cause I don't get paid
Until friday, so tonight we're hanging out
In the yard, I can't sit still it's too hard
And anywhere is too far
For me to go, whoa whoa

[Chorus]
This year was weird and I know
I gotta tell it, I'll write it like a hook
I bet I could write a book, on how
You could lose all your friends
I swear I'd go to the end
Of this planet, just to find an escape, I'm afraid

It's been 2 days I can't eat
I know it's weird but I keep
Thinking of a song, I can't remember the name
I'm not where I should be
I'll just watch Die Hard 3
'Cause I think it might be my favorite movie

[Chorus](x2)


5. THE MIXTAPES MISPLACED MISSED TAKES

Wait, I'm catching up, we left the casino at 3 o'clock
And the weathers always nicer, but I'm lying to myself I'm broke
I really need to talk to you, but we can never tell the truth
And it's just complicated doesn't mean that much to me
And we know that were just hanging on

To half thought out ideas, I don't know
I'd rather be at home, then go to the show
I am tired I am boring, I have so much left to do
But no motivation, I'm just happy to be


6. ROAD APPLES

Let's wait just an hour or two
I got a lot on my mind, I got nothing to do
And I'm fine, waiting outside
It won't snow, but it feels so cold
And the words come out better, or at least I'm told
When you lie, but can you sleep at night?

It's late but I'm just thinking talking
Watching movies hoping I can sleep

It feels good, when theres no one around
And the weathers alright and you watch the leaves fall to the ground
They don't make a sound
That song, well it's stuck in my head
So if you go inside please grab that cassette
And we'll drive, and we'll make a sound

It's fun when you just think about it
Life's to short to try and doubt it
Hey
You know it's true, So I'll just spend my day in bed
And maybe late at night, I'll try to get up, maybe I can
Drive like I don't know, where I'm going, but I'd better
Turn on the radio, cause in Ohio you can't predict the weather


7. HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL

This song, this room, this record players empty
I don't talk a lot, I don't think I could make it
Through a night, alone, it's just like any other
And I'm glad we've got each other

I've said goodbye, to all my past ambitions
I'm just trying to find, a rhythm or a reason
I don't care about the reasons that I'm living
This world really doesn't mean nothing to me

This song, this room, it's like my head is empty
I stare and I wonder, if I could forgive me
And I miss the past, we all live and die
And I don't know why, yeah I guess I'd like to know why

[Chorus]
We, we say, and we sing
We sing and we say what we feel 'cause we don't know
We, we say, and we sing
We sing and we say what we feel 'cause we don't know
And we're sick and tired, and tired of waiting

These thoughts and fears, left behind a mess
Of memories, and tears, I didn't hold my breath
If this is all there is, I guess it could be better
But everything could always be better

[Chorus]


8. ORANGEYELLOW

The color of your shirt reminds me of my bed
I don't mean that in a sexual way
When I'm out with you I don't care what is said
I know it's all jealousy
I drive past my house cause it's not late enough
I feel like just going out
Twenty minutes later I'm feeling kinda tired
You know what I'm talking about

I don't like to party
I don't like to say what's on my mind
I've just got a problem
It's nothing that won't go away in time

The color of the trees when the summer times over makes me smile even when I'm alone
I laugh to myself and I hold conversations about things you'll never know
I drive past your house and I don't mean to look, it makes me feel like a creep
But I've got this feeling I was just thinking, thinking of you and me

You barely try but your rad, a lot of times it's you that's on my mind
I think I've got a problem, I'm thinking it will go away in time
I'm thinking it will go away in time, I'm thinking it will go away in time


9. MOONGLOW

You know that I'll be singing, when the morning comes
'Cause every time I fall asleep, I wake up alone
And my voice is dying, I can barely say a word
So I'll just drive away

And oh oh
I'd like to try and find a way
Oh oh
To take this all away with me
Oh oh
Holding out not giving in

I used to try to find the answers
But I know, now that I don't really care
Hey, I'm just cool with anything
We could get away, I don't need to get away
Today the phone hasn't rang at all
But I like it better when they don't call
So I can stay home by myself


10. SUNSETS

Time's cut me short again tonight,
And shorter days mean longer nights,
Can't stand this darkened feeling

A feeling of detach
You say it'll fade with the summer days
I hope so, I hope so

[Chorus]
This tune's been rotating in my head
It keeps some warmth in me, when the whole town seems so dead
I used to, think I had to escape from this place to make it anywhere
Then I, realized why should I wait? My life isn't over here, it's just begun

Is it sad, I still wish we stayed up late,
This weather reminds me of those conversations,
A winding country road.
I was driving yesterday, along that open road,
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry

[Chorus]
