Sporty Grandpa 03:12
lyrics
Friday night in bed I've got to get out of my head Visions of her face I’ve got to get out of this place Walking down the street Feels like the music beckons me I see a hungry crowd Their bodies move to the sound Chorus x 2 I want to lose myself in you It's time to forget Till yesterday's out of view I feel your heat near me I feel my heart beat with your feet I see you hair go wild Don't know your name but come with me Have your way with me There's a room just up the stairs It won't be so loud We will have each other there Chorus x 2 I think I'm in love, I think I'm in love with you (I want to forget, I want to forget about you) x 4 We're a perfect fit, I think this could go somewhere I want to see you soon Will you give me your number Be my full time thing I'll be just what you wanted I'll be your arm candy You'll be my inspiration Chorus x 2

More Than Strangers, Less Than Friends 03:36
lyrics
When he was gone you turned to me, I helped you through, I helped you see He’s not the guy for you He doesn’t have a clue I thought you wouldn't play along It turns out that l was, I was wrong about You about you about you About you about you about you And it hurts me to the bone When you look at him instead And despite all that I've shown I can't get you out of my head And what hurts the most After all the words we've said Is that we will always be More than strangers, less than friends

Isolate 04:13
lyrics
Sometimes I wish that I didn't try That way when I fail it's not a waste of time When you're young you're forced to choose a life, Then ten years gone it's not what you like My life is upside down, Isolate and then lash out Friends and lovers they all sound the same, They can't understand I'm the one to blame. Each day is harder than before, At my limit walking out my door I've got to leave this town, isolate and then lash out. If I remember one thing, Fondly from my past It's the freedom of long summer days And not knowing it won't last If there's one thing that I truly hate, It's waking up and feeling great Those first few moments out of bed, I forget my life with a clear head And it comes crashing down, Isolate and then lash out God forbid I try to change my mind, Everyone I know says get back in line, In this world if you chase your dreams Just be prepared to paddle up stream. I'll find a way around, Isolate and then break out If I remember one thing, Fondly from my past It's the freedom of long summer days And not knowing it won't last These patterns in my life become so clear I can't escape if I don't face my fears Clarity is something free time brings But looking back I don't regret a thing Now I know what it's about Isolate and then break out If I could just say one thing When push comes to shove Don't waste your time or energy On something you don't love

Sunrise 02:20
lyrics
Tired, tired eyes Can't see which way she's falling Faces, they wash away. First, they're gone and now they're here to stay Watch out, because time flies She's not scared because she realizes That's it’s all in her head Tonight, in full disguise Silent footsteps, she's crawling See her against the stone She is laughing, but she's all alone. You say, “What's it like?” She says, “hold me ‘til the sun rises.” But it's all in her head

Shotgun Approach 04:01
lyrics
How can you blame me? Blame me for finding love? You really think that I can give it up? My self esteem ain't quite what it used to be. And every mistake Eats away at me And when you finally have some time alone the guilt it creeps back up You never thought that this is how it goes but nowadays it's how you play it's the shotgun approach So choose me or lose me I'm not in love Condone me, disown me, can't give it up Oh baby, delay me, you're not alone Who am I, I'm not sure It's the shotgun approach And when you can see where you have been and gone it feels like you can’t stop You never thought that this is how it goes but nowadays it's how you play it's the shotgun approach So choose me or lose me I'm not in love Condone me, disown me, can't give it up Oh baby, delay me, you're not alone Who am I, I'm not sure It's the shotgun approach

Flat Tire 03:50
lyrics
These old, lonesome bones, travel to the sea, so distantly. they groan, dry and low, like music at a wake, it is discreet. The road winds and flows, if only you could know to where it leads. Gung ho, away we go, without a second thought, we're on our feet. Chorus The ghost of dreams Is unfulfilled It's right at your back The smell of home I gives you chills It's holding you back (holding you back) This whole town Is an anchor around our necks We must go away Set your sails Trust the wind Let me go The toll, of staying home, it’s more than you will know, it's far too steep. Gung ho, away we go, without a second thought, we're on our feet. Chorus Let me go Just let me go Control, what you strive for, it's not as nice as you, may think it seems. Gung ho, away we go, without a second thought, we're on our feet. Chorus Let me go Just let me go Please, let me go

Cubano 03:15
lyrics
Are you feeling okay? Cause you're acting strange. It doesn't feel the same. Has anything changed? Cause it feels like you're not putting in time like you did before. Don't try to spare me the pain; Cause you’ll just cause more. Is everything alright? I can't read your mind. You say it's all fine. Am I just wasting time? Chorus And I see it in your eyes Cause you can’t disguise Come take me away You can’t seem to find the time I thought you were mine You led me astray Well I don't have a clue. What’s concerning you? Sometimes I get overwhelmed, Can’t be hard to tell. But the more you’re asking if I’m okay The worse I’ll feel. I’m not pushing you away. I just need some space. Yes, Everything’s alright Don’t try to read mind Promise I’m feeling fine It’s not a waste of time Chorus
