You made it so easy for me to leave Giving me nothing but a comfortable wreck First came the wind and then the change in the leaves Then came the winter and I couldn't look back But how did these tears get so heavy that they would just fall to the ground? Leaving more puddles for me to jump over While drenched in these treasures I found But so help me I can't escape this beautiful mess that I've made I'm just caught in a transitional phase It's alright I'm far, far away From where this began See the streets I used to tread over Dead on a screen, of no use to me In the end I didn't know it was over Thought it was just a break from that lonely scene But how does the time go so quickly? It was just yesterday I was young Young enough to live without meaning When all I was given was enough But so help me I can't escape this beautiful mess that I've made I'm just caught in a transitional phase It's alright I'm far, far away From where this began Because after all we are just footprints in sand But how do I move on When I've found perfection in glass? And I'm finding no matter how hard I try I simply cannot live in the past But so help me I can't escape this beautiful mess that I've made I'm just caught in a transitional phase It's alright I'm far, far away From where this began

Slow Burn 03:28
It's a slow burn inside my heart I'm floating free, anchored to the start Oh it's a long night but I don't think It's quite as over as I hoped it to be But here I am Holding on You were never in my dreams 'til you were gone All the energy that's spent in moving on it's still a Slow burn and the flame keeps me awake until the dawn I would change if it would mean That all I've lost would come right back to me Maybe in a new way, but suddenly All I want don't seem so out of reach But here I am Holding on You were never in my dreams 'til you were gone All the energy that's spent in moving on it's still a Slow burn and the flame keeps me awake until I can't sleep Without you next to me Oh I believe, yes I believe that we've got Years to make it right It's a slow burn inside my heart I'm floating free, anchored to the start Oh it's a long night but I don't think It's quite as over as I hoped it to be But here I am Holding on You were never in my dreams 'til you were gone All the energy that's spent in moving on it's still a Slow burn and the flame keeps me awake until the dawn

Oh it seems you knew me well Long before I even knew it myself Now you've gone away but don't stray too far 'Cause I've got this funny feeling way down in my heart That you were wrong to leave You were wrong to leave Oh, I don't want to break the news That my heart's no longer yours to lose Don't hesitate it won't be long before You're not the one on my mind anymore Falling sand, the passing of time Rising hope since the end of the line You're losing your chance to find out what we could have If you made up your mind And if you were wrong to leave Oh, if you were wrong to leave Oh, I don't want to break the news My heart's no longer yours to lose Don't hesitate it won't be long before You're not the one on my mind anymore Oh I am breaking down Tired of the run-around I'll be sleeping in my car Long before I come back to you Oh, I don't want to break the news That my heart's no longer yours to lose Don't hesitate it won't be long before You're not the one on my mind anymore Oh, I don't want to break the news That my heart's no longer yours to lose Don't hesitate it won't be long before You're not the one on my mind anymore

Homesick for a home that no longer exists Here the sun is out at midnight but by the morning light I will be wide awake again Oh, I had a dream we both went floating over the sea I caught you as you fell, made a wish in the wishing well but I still don't know what it means Can't be left alone with these ideas They just turn into all my childish fears That you'll just walk away again I always thought I'd know better But I can't take your word The novelty fades, all caught up in the blades We put our name before hoping to ignore that that's all we may ever be A name etched in stone, words that chill to the bone I'm staring at the ceiling, holding to the feeling that this may be the end that we know Can't be left alone with these ideas They just turn into all my childish fears That you'll just walk away again I always thought I'd know better But I can' take your word Oh no, I've fallen So far from where I've been Oh we could make this water under the the bridge of the next town over As soon as I know That you won't walk away again I always thought I'd know better Always thought I'd know better Always thought I'd know better But you'll just walk away again I always thought I'd know better But you'll just walk away again I always thought I'd know better Always thought I'd know better Always thought I'd know better But I can't take your word

City Lights 03:53
Let's sleep in and blame the traffic when we're late to work I know that this has never been my home but I'm sure gonna miss that record Hanging on the wall I won't take it when I go Times are tough but I tell you the view couldn't get any better I keep thinking back to those summer days we would Sit and listen to that record hanging on the wall I do miss it after all But of all the things that I have ever missed I shoulda known, I shoulda known You'd be on that list Of things I could never keep I remember every time these city lights sing me to sleep Let's make time out of construction paper, Popsicle sticks, and glue Hang it on the wall and only take it down on those days We're feeling blue 'Cause it's only time that's keeping me away from you But of all the things that I have ever missed I shoulda known, I shoulda known You'd be on that list Of things I could never keep I remember every time these city lights sing me But please just let me get through this winter It's been harder than I thought Just to keep my feet dry And I was getting so damn tired of watching everyone else's airplanes going by But of all the things that I have ever missed I shoulda known, I shoulda known You'd be on that list Of things I could never keep I remember every time these city lights sing me But of all the things that I have ever missed I shoulda known, I shoulda known You'd be on that list Of things I could never keep I remember every time these city lights sing me to sleep
