If you need a chance,
Just take it
If you want some love,
Then make it
There's no god above,
I think we fake it
Yeah, there's no such thing,
You're not forsaken
It just all goes round and round in circles
It's comin' around
If you cling to fears,
Set them free
If you want a change,
Don't let it be
If you're down and out and,
Can hardly see
Don't lose that sense
Of possibility
'Cause it's oh so good, to be here
When it's comin' around
Around

Waiting, Hoping
02:22
|
|
||
We've been building
A foundation of sand and,
We've been hoping
That these notions would stand
I wanted something,
Not just a part of their plan
But they're disappointing
Again, and again
Someone else sent me here
Now I'm waiting and hoping
That something will appear
Now they've done it,
It all comes crashing down
Shattered dreams, ideas,
And promises abound
Lost to their designs
In this peculiar span
Coursing through our thoughts and fears
Again, and again
[Chorus]

Falling Into Pieces
02:26
|
|
||
Falling into pieces
Seen these viewpoints go to far
And daily troubles, leave a scar
Or wander through a system's grace
Until they hardly know their face
I wonder
Can this be?
I resolve that it could
Not be me
Falling into pieces
It comes in fragments, root to tree
In convoluted clarity, and
Lose yourself in lights you see
To connect disparity
Falling into pieces
Falling

Marquee Blues
03:29
|
|
||
The good things in life
Aren't all easy to see
Caught up and lost
Among all the debris
Well I'll tell you it all goes swell
When you see your name
On the big marquee
So get your mind off of your blues
Get your mind off of your blues
Tell you straight, it ain't no use
At all
Cast out to a sea of indifference
Reeled in by a current of shame
The ocean is hardly to blame
The signs that are laid by the roadside
The ones that are guiding me home
Showing I'm never alone

The Bigger Picture
02:15
|
|
||
Go through life, and what you see
Trying not to miss the bigger picture
Seldom just reality
But it can change
Can it change?
Building up
To the same old set of disappointments

Slow Phase
03:23
|
|
||
I've been down in the dumps
I've never been such a grump
I've been taking my time
I need a new thrill
Slow phase
And we're going nowhere
Slow phase
It'll have to do
Slow phase
Now we're getting somewhere
Slow phase
It'll happen, happen soon
A sad state of affairs
It's not my fault
So why should I care?
What am I supposed to do?
I need a new thrill
Slow phase
That was going nowhere
Slow phase
It'll have to do
Slow phase
Now we're getting somewhere
Slow phase
It'll happen, happen...
Sometimes, nothing will change too much, and
Then it's all it seems to do
I know you want it to change so much, but
Maybe it'll change you
Just don't expect it to change too much
Slow phase
(Now we’re getting somewhere)
Slow phase
(It’ll happen soon)
Slow phase
(We were going nowhere)
Slow phase
(It’ll have to do)
Just don't expect it to change too much

See the Rain
02:55
|
|
||
I see the rain
I feel the pain
that you're going through
There's no need for change
In your attitude
'Cause I know
You'll make it through
I know the name
That you want to say
There's no need to blame
Anybody else
Don't be ashamed
Just feel the rain
And let yourself go
I see the rain
I feel your pain
I see the rain,
As it's rolling through
I feel your pain
As you're coming to
I see the rain

Chris, he was making dinner
He shattered my favorite glass
So I'm going to eat some dinner
But then I'm gonna kick his ass
Dabidopdoobadweedup
I'll write a song
Finally making progress
Yeah, we're finally kicking ass
Dabidopdoobadweedup
But how we gonna make it last?
Dabidopdoobadweedup
All night long

I Should Have Said
03:28
|
|
||
When I loved you
I pushed back the things
I know I should have said
You were fragile and
I was afraid that I would break you
So I pushed aside all of the things
That I would grow to hate
In the end
It didn't do us any favors
What could I have changed?
I was sleeping
Positions rearranged,
just to keep breathing
It was so wrong
Is delusion just a phase,
Or is it something that we're choosing?
I'm not certain that there's any way
We'll ever know
Is distraction a reaction,
Or our brains, just finding traction?
Most attempts at understanding, show
There can be no such thing
What could make us change?
We're just humans
Decisions rearranged,
We find that we're just assuming

Different Light
02:00
|
|
||
See it in a different light
How do you know what's wrong or right?
It's hard to know what's right or wrong
And the things I know,
They take too long to say
See it in a different light
In the new light
It's where things, they look
The best that I can see
In the new light
If you think too long
About our history
See it in a different light

Broken
03:05
|
|
||
Stuck in this cold hotel
And I'm drowning here
In this fire, hell
Away from what keeps me going
And just how much
It's always growing
Don't have the words to say
But I'll make it through
Another day
Troubles they will abound
With my head so high
Above the ground
You've been gone
Too long a time to know
Now it's me that has to go
Telling the same old story
And now I'm starting to think
That I'm boring you
All that I want to be
Without you with me
I'm but an empty shell
Losing for you to gain
But these silent doubts
Are an old refrain
I'm still stuck in this cold hotel
I'm drowning here in this fire, hell
You've been gone
Too long a time to know
Now it's me that has to go
Window shatters
And the glass, it breaks
A little loneliness
Is all it takes
No one forced you
No one put you down
It's over

The End of a Song
03:57
|
|
||
How do you know
Just where to go
The end of a song
Keeps going on
Keep on fighting
The same old battles
Never know when to end
Later on when the dust
Has settled
Do we try to pretend?
How do you know
Just where to go
The end of a song
Keeps going on
Keep on learning
The same old lessons
Are we coming along?
Keep on living
The same old story
Does it show in the song?
How do you know
Just where to go
The end of a song
Keeps going on
[Interlude]
How do you know
Just where to go
The end of a song
Keeps going on
Looking back
Through a lens
I see it
It's becoming so clear
At the end
Of the song we're singing
We were there
Now we're here
How do you know
Just where to go
The end of a song
Keeps going on
