put your right hand up
please don’t lie
now i know its wrong
i don’t mind
i don’t mind
i don’t mind
i use my left hand now
it feels right
when i tell you “no more”
you know why
you know why
you know why
i pray for another chance
but i know i lost you - somewhere else
you will be - but i know that's just for show
baby

my thing

why do you let them walk all over you?
don’t you know that baby that’s my thing
I don’t think there is much difference
I just think it all feels the same
you were drawing your line in the sand
I’ve been doing what I’m told to
when I feel like it’s all caving in
I’ll keep doing what I'm supposed to
why do you let them walk all over you?
don’t you know that baby that’s my thing
I don’t think there is much difference
I just think it all feels the same
I’ve been building it up in my head
Just for you to knock it down
I was hoping that now and again
maybe you could help me out
why do you let them walk all over you?
don’t you know that baby that’s my thing

sincere

i want you right here
i want you bad
but she's standing right there
i know, it’s bad
if you wanted me too
what would we do
we could get high
that’s what they do
isn’t that right
isn’t that wrong
i could be wrong
you could be right
so say it sincere
i’ll say it back
i’ll be standing right here
til you get back
but when you never do
i’ll say that i knew
i know what i want
i know what you don’t
i know what i’m not
i know that i won’t
but if you were around
and we were alone
would you say it out loud
even if it was wrong
well we could be wrong
isn’t that right
i want you so bad
i think that i might
i'll tell you right here
i wish that i could

walking dogs

we rode our bikes from campus into town
you say you loved me then
the same way i do now
we’d watch the sun come up above the sea
when you were always tired
but you’d do it just for me
before we had a name for it back then
til’ we were drinking on the bluffs
and then i just kind of said it
you seemed to take it well the way you smiled
i still think about those days
every once in a while
like back when we were lost and walking dogs
we’d take what i was given
and go spend it at the bar
or the night we almost died in burney falls
when we heard the car doors slam
right before they all sped off
there’s a picture that i took there at the park
you had just cut your hair
things felt fine til it got dark
and we drove right through the night to the next state
you were sleeping even though
you said you would stay awake
but i don’t mind
the way the moonlight hits your face
we can laugh about it now
now that everything’s ok
and now we found a little bit of peace
there is laughter in the yard
there is sunlight through the trees
you are next to me

crooked
01:33
|
|||
|
i wasted days
i felt just fine
i lost my way
i lost some time
so brother tell me what it is i do not know
and sister tell me where it is that i should go
i cleaned my slate
i did some lying
i tried to stand up straight with my crooked spine
and if i loved you then well i can love you now
but sometimes i forget and it still brings me down
so when i fall asleep i focus on the sound

concrete
03:15
|
|||
|
when the paper will not stick
and it falls right off my teeth
i will swallow all of it
just the way i did last week
and i notice when you talk
you are careful when you speak
i will practice what i want
i will tell you what i need
for the last 22 years
i’ve been scared of what you think
when you learned it from the best
it sure feels like it’s concrete
now your playing with your palms
cause it all feels obsolete
you are crying when when i call
i am standing on my feet
now your older like you hoped
but you could not be less sure
when you’re trying to do less
but it comes off just like more
and you say its for the best
as your walking out the door
i will get this off my chest
this is feeling like a chore
and the part where it all ends
you somehow must have missed
when you’re asking for a friend
but it turns out that it fits
now your praying for a piece
that you’ll probably never get
you are everything i need
i am what i never said
