M. I’ve been listening to these guys since like ‘05. Their music has had a huge impact on me and I revisit this record whenever I’m in need of something caring and familiar.

When I talk it doesn't mean you have to listen Sometimes everything I say just comes out wrong And I know there's steps that maybe I've been missing But I promise I won't miss them anymore I won't miss them anymore Cause this time I'll try to put myself in your shoes Yeah well this time I'm not blind And it's time you knew it I'm not scared to love you If I call it doesn't mean you have to answer It's okay sometimes we need to be alone There is just one question left I have to ask her Do you think I'll let you down? I'd never let you down This time I'll try to put myself in your shoes Yeah well this time I'm not blind And it's time you knew it I'm not scared to love you Never let you down, I'd never let you down This time I'll try to put myself in your shoes this time I'm blind And it's time you knew I'm not scared to love you Scared to love you I'm not scared to love you

When does it stop? The alarming way in which you think everything's gonna be okay everything's gonna be okay Hey, well ready or not I got some news for you Seen a different side of you the past few days you wake up when I say Break it off or Let's get together I don't mind either way Misguided all of my years Gonna add it up accomplishments that ended up in tears Especially when you call "Leave me doubtful" it's what you say We don't need to read the writing on our walls Tell me its not the only way to say it's right is to fake everything's okay is to make everything okay Well ready or not Still got some news for you Seen a different side of you the past few days you wake up when I say Break it off or Let's get together I don't mind either way Misguided all of my years Gonna add it up accomplishments that ended up in tears Especially when you call "Leave me doubtful" it's what you say We don't need to read the writing on our walls

Here we are battered, bruised and broken We never move, we never learn Left with guilt from a sudden motion nowhere left to turn This could be the end of the world This could be your next big thing All along we sensed we'd see the sunrise from this corner where we lay Don't look around, don't make a sound Cause I'll be fading out, you're fading out This could be the end of the world This could be your next big thing Now we're praying for the end of the world Saying it's your last big thing Yeah keep sayin' it's the end won't ya girl Keep sayin' it's your next big thing
4.
A little hard from the start but you got a good heart A little aching in your head when you're sayin' "it's time for bed" But you know me better than anyone And I know you and what you want me to do We can make it better You say you framed that picture that I know you never took And I'll ask you again to take a second look in the mirror, cause I see you so much clearer than you see me We can make it better You ask me in a letter if I'll meet you there someday I say "hey maybe sometime I may" But as for now, I'll stick with the warmer weather If this is the last time we'll be together Let's make it better We can make it better
5.
It's just the thoughts in your head that lead to dreams you dread You're thinking, thinking of leaving me It's backed by words that you say that lead from day to day You're thinking, thinking of leaving me I don't think so Cause you, you had me from the start oh now stop today Oh this takes too long, so I'll sing your favorite song Over and over again, just to get your attention Oh this takes too long, so I'll sing your favorite song Over and over again, just to get your attention It's all the boys in your bed that lead to dreams you dread And you're thinking, thinking of leaving me It's backed by words that you say that lead from day to day and you're thinking, thinking of leaving me I don't think so Cause you, you had me from the start Let's get this right then go someday soon we'll start but let's start today Oh this takes too long, so I'll sing your favorite song Over and over again, just to get your attention Oh this takes too long, so I'll sing your favorite song Over and over again, can I have your attention please? Your attention please

Trust 03:16
Well if money makes the man then I guess I'm nothing But if you reach down inside We might pull out alive It's that look upon your face that nobody could replace It's the way you are when you're around me But if you trust now in me why cant you see we're near the edge and falling But I'll be faithful now I'm sure and you want more than what I can give Well if money makes the man then I guess I'm nothing It's that look upon your face that nobody could replace And if it's everything you are then it's everything you already know And if it's everything you want then it's everything you're taking away from me But if you trust now in me why cant you see we're near the edge and falling And I'll be faithful now I'm sure but you want more than what I can give to you

Cheap Seats 03:25
In the winter of '92 right before these ugly trees grew I thought I'd never figure you out This season lasts so long I close my eyes and you're gone with subtle moves you silently disappear By then I'll get back to my old dirty habits and useless conversation For every moment that just passes by And from the Cheap Seats I'll find you I'm not sorry for anything Even when in my dreams I can hear you softly speaking never losing that same tone through the years And as your face gleams watch as your figure's fading into the thin air For every moment that just passes by And from the Cheap Seats I'll find you I'm not sorry for anything

Sea Beds 02:32
Two beds by the sea for you and me and at this point I can barely see Where this is going We all have different plans and different planes land In different cities every night, it gets so costly I hear your voice like you are here you come to me like a ghost would haunt you Two beds by the sea for you and me and at this point I can barely see Where this is going We all have different plans and different planes land In different cities every night, it gets so costly I see your mouth moving so fast oh yeah you've lost me In different cities every night, oh yeah you've lost me
9.
Sweetside 02:31
In the summer moonlight I can see the ocean and it's in your eyes And I can see you're starting to fall loose from the hold that I had on you And I don't think it's fair to return your stare Maybe not everything at once (All at once would help) I've never been without (Never been without) I'm so sore now (So sore my knees are giving out) I'm giving in without a fight Stood outside of your house trying to get on your sweetside Never knew by now you'd be such a problem And I can see you're starting to fall loose from the hold that I had on you And I don't think it's fair to return your stare

How I Feel 02:32
Give me the chance to say cause I really wanna show you So give me the chance to say what I really want to know Give me the chance to get away cause I really wanna show you how We all find something to believe when we're young and can't find the right words to say We all find someone to deceive when we're young and cant find the right way So give me the chance to say what I really want to know Give me the chance to get away cause I really wanna show you how There's something we all leave behind when we're young and the truth it finds it way To make what was cold change to hot I still believe that we can find our way So give me the chance to say what I really want to know Give me the chance to get away cause I really wanna show you how I feel This is how I feel

Stop Asking 03:38
I was alone I was too young to remember when she She played along It's been so long since September has come and gone so fast I need someone to remember But now I know it's the fears that ask the questions Where we went, and where we've gone I'm sorry that I was doing wrong Stop Asking, start answering Start telling me what's wrong So it goes It's been so long since I heard you were home Maybe this time I could learn something from the mistakes I've made through the years I was too young to forgive her But now I know it's the fears that ask the questions Where we went, and where we've gone I'm sorry that I was doing wrong Stop Asking, start answering Start telling me what's wrong

It's just said and done I don't know what to do babe if you have become What they've said is true I would rather do wrong than to be wronged by you Well the stories play out like pictures and problems you so early made You know that's wrong I would rather be dead than knowing I've become Stuck in this feeling where I'm not sure exactly where you lay your head Hey there's no reason for staying silent when the answer is in your bed It's just said and done I don't know what to do babe if you have become What they've said is true I would rather do wrong than to be wronged by you Well the stories play out like pictures and problems you so early made You know that's wrong I would rather be dead than knowing I've become Stuck in this feeling where I'm not sure exactly where you lay your head Hey there's no reason for staying silent when the answer is in your bed
