Gates

3:04

What if this is real?
In the morning you reveal
All that you've concealed
Or we could make a deal
I'll give everything
For anything to feel
And what if we were there?
What if we could care?
What if there was sorrow?
But all that's left for you
Is holding on
To what you think is true

So go ahead and speak
And cover up their grief
Like moonlight on the water
Void of any grace
You find a way
To justify your place
And smother us in pride
Pretend to take our side
You couldn't if you tried
And all that's left for you
Is hoping that
The gates will let you through

Boss Man

5:20

Very often
I've been just too close for comfort with the Boss Man
I feel lost and
I'm just way too close for comfort with the Boss Man
Very often

All these days
All these worries
Am I ever gonna change
Or stay the same
So I cave
Let my world go
Treating life like it's a game
And Just stay away
From myself
I can't tell
All I know is
All is well
From this state
I create
Makes me sane
Is it fake?
It's too late
I'm too close
And I know
My mistake
But it comes
Never goes
Feels like the
Only way
To escape

All these days in the world I just go with the closer
Let it take over
It's all in my head

Very often
I've been just too close for comfort with the Boss Man
I feel lost and
I'm just way too close for comfort with the Boss Man
Very often

He only ever won
He only ever won
He only ever won
He only ever won

All these days in the world I just go with the closer
Let it take over
It's all in my head

Very often
I've been just too close for comfort with the Boss Man
I feel lost and
I'm just way too close for comfort with the Boss Man
Very often

Very often
I've been just too close for comfort with the Boss Man
I feel lost and
I'm just way too close for comfort with the Boss Man
Very often

Your Place

4:22

You never wanted me to be okay (be okay)
You only wanted to keep your place (keep your place)
All I ever did was think of you
And you can bet that I'll be misbehaving now
Cause I know the truth

If there's nothing loose on your end
Then don't wait for me
From all you can see
I can't get by for free
So tell me what you're waiting for
Cause you can't tell me anything's familiar
When every summer
Is hotter than the others

You never wanted me to be okay (be okay)
You only wanted to keep your place (keep your place)
All I ever did was think of you
And you can bet that I'll be misbehaving now
Cause I know the truth

You never wanted me to be okay (be okay)
(Never really wanted me to be okay)
You only wanted to keep your place (keep your place)
(You only wanna keep your)
All I ever did was think of you
(All I ever did was think of you)
And you can bet that I'll be misbehaving now
Cause I know the truth

Never really wanted me to be okay (be okay)
You only wanna keep your (keep your place)
All I ever did was think of you

The Weather

2:39

Tomorrow saves me from whatever
Should be done now
I say I'm waiting for the weather
A gap in the clouds
But I've been holding on forever
So what the fuck now?
Don't tell me it's for the better
When you'll never know

We can make it better
We can make it better
They say
We can make it better
We can make it better

Another day another bummer
Wearing me out
So if I make it through the summer
The sun will come 'round
And though it feels like any other
Fucking let down
I just can't help but to wonder
If its under control

We can make it better
We can make it better
They say
We can make it better
We can make it better

This Way

3:41

Why don't I go alone
Why don't I take that road
And let it go
Where no one knows
My name
But you said don't go
So if it's fake then I don't wanna know

Better start holding on tight
Cause I'm gonna try
To face it tonight
What about saving
Something I've been chasing
All my life
Just so that it won't be the last time
I can keep on chasing

When did I get this way
Why would I ever say
That I won't make
The same mistake
They did
So now I'll pay
I'll have to say I'm fine this way

Better start holding on tight
Cause I'm gonna try
To face it tonight
What about saving
Something I've been chasing
All my life
Just so that it won't be the last time
I can keep on chasing

Better start holding on tight
(Better start)
Cause I'm gonna try
To face it tonight
(I'ma try to face but I don't if I'll make it)
What about saving
Something I've been chasing
All my life
(All my life)
Just so that it won't be the last time
I can keep on chasing

Take Me Home

3:29

Could've thought that it was going so well
There's gold on the ceiling
And it feels like I'm dreaming
Wouldn't it be nice
If there was nothing left to hide
Until then close your eyes
Just hold on

Take me home
Tell me nothing's wrong
Here in paradise
And I'll play along
All this gold
And all these stones
Feeling like a king
Sitting on the throne

I've been running around
The days I've found alone
Are all I'm chasing

Take me home
Tell me nothing's wrong
Here in paradise
And I'll play along
All this gold
And all these stones
Feeling like a king
Sitting on the throne

If only there could be some time
Where I could find some peace of mind
No one wants to be pretending forever
How long will we be playing along?

Take me home
Tell me nothing's wrong
Here in paradise
And I'll play along
All this gold
And all these stones
Feeling like a king
Sitting on the throne

Take me home
Tell me nothing's wrong
Here in paradise
And I'll play along
All this gold
And all these stones
Feeling like a king
Sitting on the throne

Time to Forget

3:51

And I've seen that place before
Saw you standing over there alone
Now I can't quite drive down that road anymore

And all that I know
Those days couldn't get any better
I wish somebody told me
It wouldn't last forever

Don't go waiting for me
I'm not waiting for you
It's time to forget
Those days are over
Don't go waiting for me
I'm not waiting for you
It's time to forget
Start moving forward
It's time to forget
It's time to forget

Now I'm driving down that road
I've been thinking 'bout those days of old
But I don't want to go back anymore

And all that I know
Those days couldn't get any better
I wish somebody told me
It wouldn't last forever

Don't go waiting for me
I'm not waiting for you
It's time to forget
Those days are over
Don't go waiting for me
I'm not waiting for you
It's time to forget
Start moving forward
It's time to forget
It's time to forget

Don't go waiting for me
I'm not waiting for you
It's time to forget
Those days are over
Don't go waiting for me
I'm not waiting for you
It's time to forget
Start moving forward
It's time to forget
It's time to forget

Don't go waiting for me
I'm not waiting for you
It's time to forget
Those days are over
Don't go waiting for me
I'm not waiting for you
It's time to forget
Start moving forward
It's time to forget
It's time to forget
