Oh, My Dear

what is this life that I'm waiting for?
what is this life that I'm falling for?
as I sit around and wait for a sound to tell that I'm meant for so much
more and more I feel it here
more and more my senses clear
though I'm living fine on whiskey, beer and wine
so, oh my dear tonight
can I just lay here and listen to your heart and sigh
we can breathe away the parts that we don't like inside
and as long as you are here tonight I see that I'm where I'm meant to be.
a borrowed map of the same old story
a purpose, place with embellished glory
we all fall for this, yet we all come for this.
open wide your heart and find
the truth is buried deep inside
breathe in, breathe out...breathe in, breathe out.
so, oh my dear tonight
can I just lay here and listen to your heart and sigh
we can breathe away the parts that we don't like inside
and as long as you are here tonight I see that I'm where I'm meant to be.
be where you don't wanna go
and stand where energy will flow
and take a chance and you will see
that nothing's what it seems to be
you have everything you need.
so, oh my dear tonight
can I just lay here and listen to your heart and sigh
we can breathe away the parts that we don't like inside
and as long as you are here tonight I see that I'm where I'm meant to be.
I got everything I need
my mind's open, I see
that I'm where I'm meant to be.

Almost

Here we go again in our beat up 5 speed van
We're heading out to nowhere to play for nobody again
Cause yesterday we played the Warped Tour
and now we have a Sweet 16
the van just broke down at 3am...here we go again.
Cause it's just our luck
we're knocked down but we'll get right up
We were almost cool
we were almost stars
we were almost on our way
we were almost great
we were almost played on every radio station
we almost had a hit
we almost had a tour to play around the world
but for some of us, almost had to be enough.
So here we go again
another 30 minute opening slot at the usual spot
we asked for beer backstage but a jug or water is what we got
maybe they'll be a record label out there to sign us up and off we'll go
I'll even trade my backwards hat for a tube of black eyeshadow
Cause it's just our luck
we're knocked down but we'll get right up
We were almost cool
we were almost stars
we were almost on our way
we were almost great
we were almost played on every radio station
we almost had a hit
we almost had a tour to play around the world
but for some of us almost had to be enough.
but who would have thought we'd ever get so far
on drums and a guy who barely played guitar
but we found life in every note we played
We were almost cool
we were almost stars
we were almost on our way
we were almost great
we were almost played on every radio station
we almost had a hit
we almost had a tour to play around the world
but for some of us almost had to be enough.

Smash The Mirrors
04:17

I'm awake. I'm wide awake.
and my heart beats starts to race
and these voices of subtlety are making it hard to breathe.
my mind is starting up the engines
and my thoughts are becoming never-ending
and I still didn't leave this bed.
I don't know what to do
when all my words are being misconstrued
and I'm left here with nothing else to say.
Smash the mirror and see what's inside
release the toxic hold that it hides
you don't have to fake it anymore.
Rewrite the story line after line
and watch the plot twist start to unwind
you don't have to fake it anymore.
Let it go, all you know
Sit back and watch the show
and I'll be just fine
yea, I'll be just fine.
My well intentions here can only go so far
cause I'm one foot in this Wonderland
and one foot out the door
I don't know what to do
when all my words to you are so confused
and I'm left here with nothing else to say.
Smash the mirror and see what's inside
release the toxic hold that it hides
you don't have to fake it anymore.
Rewrite the story line after line
and watch the plot twist start to unwind
you don't have to fake it anymore.
You don't have to fake it, no, you don't have to fake it
You don't have to fake it anymore
We don't have to fake it, no, we don't have to fake it
We don't have to fake it anymore
Smash the mirror and see what's inside
release the toxic hold that it hides
you don't have to fake it anymore.
Rewrite the story line after line
and watch the plot twist start to unwind
you don't have to fake it anymore.

This year I'll be 44 and I think I want to lie here with you
Last year was a crazy year and I am happy just to lie here with you.
If there's one thing I can say, is that the view from here look so good and I don't wanna move.
So I'm think maybe we should just stay awhile.
So darlin' don't open your eyes
Let go and sigh away the impulse inside
Cause we can pretend until we find our way back home.
It's getting hard to stick around
When the record plays but has no sound
Everybody wants to listen but no one wants to hear
and I think I'd like to go home now.
There's one thing I can say, is that the view from here looks so damn good... and I don't wanna move so I'm thinking maybe we should just stay awhile.
So darlin' don't open your eyes
Let go and sigh away the impulse inside
Cause we can pretend until we find our way back home.
This year I'll be 44 and I'm happy just to lie here with you.

This is Home

Girl, I wanna marry you and not because I have to.
I would stay here, waiting all year.
Me and you, you and me take a walk into the trees and listen to the nothing.
Hops and a flight to fly away
Cheers to whatever comes our way
Driving in my car where we don't know where we are
We can play pretend for the rest of our lives
Cause where we are is home
From the New Jersey Shoreline to the Long Island sound
so come on, come on, come on and move along
this is the anthem to wherever we may roam
Oh, oh this is home.
Girl, I wanna marry you and not because I have to.
I would stay here, waiting all year.
Me and you, you and me wrapped up tight so comfortably let's wish for rain and stay all day.
Hops and a flight to fly away
Cheers to whatever comes our way
Driving in my car where we don't know where the hell we are
We can play this pretend game for the rest of our lives
Cause where we are is home
From the Crosswinds down the Delaware to the San Diego sun
so come on, come on, come on and move along
this is the anthem to wherever we may roam
Oh, oh this is home.
and I can see the real in you when were laughing hard that we can't breathe
and I can see the real in you when we disconnect from everything
and when we slow down we calm and clear the truth in who we are
Cause where we are is home
From the upstate NY mountainside to the Pennsylvania highway home
so come on, come on, come on and move along
this is the anthem to wherever we may roam
Oh, oh this is home.
Where you are is home
This is the anthem to our lives, the trophy to our fight
Yea, this is home...
