Splash me with cold water It wakes me for the moment Such a spiteful offer I'll take it in the moment Held you so close in your kitchen Looking back, it's all different It lasts longer in letters How long does it take to burn them? The sky opened up like the ocean and it felt so surreal Your eyes reflected the night time and you told me just how I feel I'm warm and cold and I'm so high that I know I (you) won't I'm not gonna try to understand you when I don't You're like "Easy Rider" So you scare me real bad I haven't seen it either But you know I wish I had I don't know a lot, and that's something It's a heart attack of the mind I'll get your Whitman if you get my music So weird to stare into your eyes The sky opened up like the ocean and it felt so surreal Your eyes reflected the night time and you told me just how I feel I'm warm and cold and I'm so high that I know I (you) won't I'm not gonna try to understand you when I don't It's a heart attack of the mind You're like "Easy Rider", so you scare me real bad I haven't seen it either But you know I wish I had The sky opened up like the ocean and it felt so surreal Your eyes reflected the night time and you told me just how I feel I'm warm and cold and I'm so high that I know I (you) won't I'm not gonna try to understand you when I don't The sky opened up like the ocean and it felt so surreal Your eyes reflected the night time and you told me just how I feel I'm warm and cold and I'm so high that I know I (you) won't I'm not gonna try to understand you when I don't.

Visionary 03:31
Visionary on the floor What are you looking for Tricked out in new perfumes Slipped out in your bedroom You're dirty on the floor But that's what dreams are for, right? Visionary, won't you dance Just one of your lonely nights Your nature's so confused Decked out your living room It's over, don't be sad You're acting so risqué You're dirty on the floor But that's what dreams are for, right? Obsessed with the intimate that you can't have So, you fight for the moment when you should be glad It's times like these when you wish you had a helping hand Visionary, welcome back Strapped up for your attack New thigh high leather boots They sure look good on you It all comes out a gasp There's whispers you can't grasp I think I may love you I'm so inspired too.

How could I lose myself So far, so good, but I couldn't tell If I knew right now, I would want you home Oh I want your love More than I want drugs, I want your touch I want you here now Can't you be here now? I miss you more than you would ever know Co-dependency ain't easy in the snow, Oh So make it summer Make it a little better But I'm still a wreck and you're still fine I think I'm wasting your time I can't delete my past So far, so good, but it couldn't last If I knew back then, back with "Together, Alone" I want a crutch More than more than enough, I wanna hold on I wanna go green So don't let go, Oh I miss you more than you would ever know Co-dependency ain't easy in the snow, Oh So make it summer Make it a little better But I'm still a wreck and you're still fine I think I'm wasting your time. (TIM HAGDORN:) "Sensational!"

The Calm 04:01
Take a deep breath and turn off the light and let your mind just linger for a bit Think about all the plans we made think about the calm within the storm I don't know how you are right now at all I hope you're peaceful, laying still I want something to treat you right Please, just no more restless nights I can't know about what you know I won't know where your mind goes But rain is falling, soft and slow I'll fall asleep after you go So if you get your heart beating with mine That's all that matters, no such thing as time And you're fine and I'm alright All we really need's tonight We're just distant futures in your mind So close your eyes and rest a while Promise me, let yourself be blind All we really need's tonight I can't know about what you know I won't know where your mind goes But rain is falling, soft and slow I'll fall asleep after you go I can't know about what you know I won't know where your mind goes But rain is falling, soft and slow I'll fall asleep after you go.

Midnight Apartment, Stuck on your couch Don't wanna get up now, But can't get out I miss those days that would never end I need your love now I need a friend Midnight Apartment, Stuck on your couch Don't wanna get up now, But can't get out I miss those days that would never end I need your love now I need a friend What's the difference between you and I? There's so much that I say, but I still try All I want in my life is love, but Your kind of love is kinda turning me off (And) Usually I can't turn and sleep But lately (it's) you're making it easy to see that You're real and I'm real, I'm really glad Finding a love that you never had Midnight Apartment, Stuck on your couch Don't wanna get up now, But can't get out I miss those days that would never end I need your love now I need a friend (I GO SLOWLY YOU GO SOFTLY) Midnight Apartment, Stuck on your couch Don't wanna get up now, But can't get out I miss those days that would never end I need your love now I need a friend.

Offshore 04:09
Stood up at the gates once more We know this routine because we've done it before So sad, it blossoms and ends I self-destruct and you say we're friends If just for the morning, (oh, oh) If just for the days when we knew we would end When you're self-assured I'll be there, my arms around yours It's sad, but we've done this before You say you won't leave and I'm stuck offshore I'm locked and I'm losing sleep You went out and threw away the key So sad, I try but I can't You're always here, I can't forget If just for the morning, (oh, oh) If just for the days when we knew we would end When you're self-assured I'll be there, my arms around yours It's sad, but we've done this before You say you won't leave and I'm stuck offshore I can't get you out of my head, so Keep acting like you forgot me, oh You're saying it's harder for me, then Why're you the one who's always leaving When you're self-assured I'll be there, my arms around yours It's sad, but we've done this before You say you won't leave and I'm stuck offshore If just for the morning, (oh, oh) If just for the days when we knew we would end It's sad, but we've done this before You say you won't leave and I'm stuck offshore.

Early Drama 05:05
If this is really it, I’ve got it made I’m finally alright We kissed cause I was bored And played guitar And yeah, it was alright And if the city sleeps tonight We’ll live like this forever Tongues and lives all intertwined Inside the basement bathroom This life is really hard I know the words They’ll never come out right Looking back at all our faults I forgot it hurt But I guess we did alright I can’t run and we can’t hide I know they’ll always stop us And all our friends and lovers alike I know they’ll never stop us This is the end, your boyfriend unlike my girl I never saw problems But if I sang right to you, you know it’d burn Just know you can’t stop ‘em One night stands only last a night I know they’ll always stop us You can stay here for the night I know they‘ll never stop us I love you, I really do, nothing next to you I just wish you were stronger I don’t mean to make it hurt, to make it worse I just want you here longer You’re so obsessed with death I really wish you weren’t I wish you’d escape the clutch And be your own parent Oh, no, no Oh, no, no Ohh, oh, oh, oh o0o0o0oo0o0ooOH (ohOhoo0) When 20 hits harder than it possibly could And it hurts more than you even thought it ever could And new people take the spots of those to your side And then you looked to your left when you looked to your right We got high and slumped in a bitter defeat And then we smiled for the camera cause’ our talk is cheap And then the day melts away yet revenge is so sweet And then I wonder how you’re not completely sick of me In the bottomless pit I will fall and we will kiss It’s the death of an ego, yeah, it’s a terrible trick It’s the wanting and the getting that grab hold of you And when you hold me so tight And you say goodbye.
