Holiday 02:20
Sleeping in is for the weekend, I kept you in the yard so we could wake up. Our mattress is deflated and the kitchen's cookin' bacon and I'm in love. Little Pig, come and play. We got room for three on this holiday, and Belfast hospitality. We're in love with the thrills, with the emerald covered hills, with the coasts, and the cliffs, everything we're gonna miss. When we leave I don't want to forget anything like the night I swore I was gonna die or get in a fight, until you saved the day you saved my life and everything was alright. When you've no place to go I'll always have an open door, a slumber party on the floor. Hey isn't that what friends are for? For our love?

Call me over to your place, I would like to act your age. Now i'm feeling sentimental wrapped up in your legs. Everything I once knew started to evaporate. Give me rhymes or one good reason to get out of this state. Next year we'll drive across the country and camp along the way. Hidden temples, forbidden lakes, fields of Freesia that you can name. And in the dark in some state park we'll hunt for scorpions, and compare their stingers and claws to our own constellations. It's true I'm in love with you, I know that you love me too. Pretty soon i'm gonna marry you, we won't be alone. I'm dreaming of you to come back home. I'm in the dark waiting up by the phone I'll leave a light on for you in the garage. I'll leave a light on for you in the garage.

Birthday 03:16
Well I love you more than my guitar, So I sold it to see you on your birthday. But I couldn't get to you by car, So I went and found the nearest airplane. You're too much. Well I love you more than my guitar, So I sold it when you told me not to. But I won't sell everything I love, So I kept one hidden in my bedroom. And I said, "This one's for writing songs, I'll never give it up." You're the one I want I'll never give you up.

Rapture 02:40
When I picked you up from school, you were hanging with a total tool. And then on the way home, you'd only talk to me through your cell phone. When the world ends you'll be out walking your dog, and pulling out all of the weeds in your lawn, and bitching about how you have never been loved, and how you wanted to die so you'd never have to wake up. Please wake up, god wake up. I waited for you after work, You stood me up you think by now I'd have learned. And later on Friday night I wanted to make love but you wanted to fight. When the world ends you'll be out walking your dog, and pulling out all of the weeds in your lawn, and bitching about how you have never been loved, and how you wanted to die so you'd never have to wake up. Please wake up, please wake up, god wake up.

"The only people for me are the mad ones somebody said," Now that somebody's dead. Well how mad did he get? How mad did he get? How mad do we get? How mad do we get? Or was it all in my head? Was I spending too much time hanging out in the red? Not a dollar to my name, only a loaf of bread, and some butter to spread on it. Barely making rent, working till I'm dead, sleeping in the shed, feeling frustrated, exasperated. And I'm tired of doing dishes and pushing paper all day long. I'd rather be with the fishes, or on the beach singing songs With the one that I love. I got a crick in my neck from bending over backwards for everyone that I've ever met, and now they never come around. "If you're not upset, then you're not paying attention," that's what somebody said. Now that somebody's dead, got shot in the chest thinking he was the best like everyone else. And I'm tired of making wishes and always being on the run. I'd rather get sentimental under the stars in the Caribbean With the one that I love.

Jingle Bells 03:31
How many would follow me in to the night? Who would stand by me after the fight? I can only think of one, cause I only think of one. I can only think of one, cause I only think of one. I'll be coming through your front door. No more running away anymore. How many times a week do you feel like that? Lonesome as can be, wishing to go back. Oh, soon our day will come. Oh, soon our time will come. I can only think of one, cause I only think of one. I'll be coming through your front door. No more running away anymore.

Countdown 04:40
It's not enough to know you. It's not enough to be near you. It's not enough just to hold you, and if I could I would eat you and find a way to drink you in, really get you under my skin. Stopping only to start all over again. Cause when I leave that's when the countdown begins, Oh when I'm gone, that's when the countdown begins. Waking up to read the message that you left me when I was dreaming of you. Well it gets harder everyday, something's gotta give or change, thing's can't always be this way. and if I could I would eat you and find a way to drink you in, really get you under my skin. Stopping only to start all over again. Cause when I leave that's when the countdown begins, Oh when I'm gone, that's when the countdown begins. What is love? Baby don't hurt me anymore.

You are safe here and not alone. When you came to tell me that you thought the world was ending I believed you, because that's what best friends do. And when you said you thought of jumping my heart filled with blood and pumped it to my throat, and I almost choked. What a heavy load to be dragging to and fro without a helping hand. We'd light the fire, we'd fan it higher and there would be no more self doubt. From thorns in the briar, or North Carolina, nothing will ever hold you back. One day I will hopefully say I stopped the fire from burning out, Stopped the fire from burning out. I raised you up and set you down until you got things sorted out. When you came to tell me you were thinking of the Navy I wanted to know why cause you're too smart for that ship. But if you found a gun and did it would I lose my shit and quit it?j Could I recover? Would life ever be easy like before World War III? Would you take the road less traveled if it's more challenging?
9.
There is no reason to turn the radio down Because the song that is on needs to be heard All over the house The party's over, And they're cleaning up the place Where you had just gotten sick. And the memory will fade as if it Did not exist. What is that feeling you get when you're walking around And you realize that you're the one that they want to kick out?
10.
Jumpstart 03:32
Lay me down on your soft cloud. Made up our minds to believe in all of the things that we couldn't see So we could rejoice. We would sail the seas as if money grew on trees, And we'd eat it up. Just lay me down on your soft cloud. Your heart is electric parts and mine could use a jumpstart Novotel stationary, please don't tell my dear mother that I never tried to give up smoking. I'll try harder next year, cause i'll feel better next year. Now you're stuck with a body that's still asleep And a mind that's woken up, it's terrifying. Shit out of luck, wanting to make those muscles move But they won't budge, it's paralyzing.
11.
I'm beside myself, We're the only ones around. As if the world was turning inside out of my mind, left widowed. I'm a nervous wreck, Ashamed of what I said. As if the world was turning Inside out of my mind left widowed. No more high-rises out of my window.
