"Anniversary"

I thought I'd write you something to remember me by,
A commemorative for the two years you spent by my side,
But every day is a new mistake,
A new song to be written and erased,
Why would you listen anyway,

Finally I'm going on with my life,
What a big mistake it was saving all my good-byes,

I'm not the type of person to get over it,
It's stuck in the back of my mind along with the time we spent,

Finally I'm going on with my life,
What a big mistake it was saving all my good-byes,
By the end of the year,
You won't even be there,
What a big mistake it was,
I wanted you to be there

Piece it together,
Along with all the rest,
Don't forget to write,
Warm your cold shoulder,
Don't listen to what they say, what they say,

I thought I'd write you something to remember me by,

Finally I'm going on with my life,
What a mistake it was saving all my good-byes,
By the end of the year,
You won't even be there,
What a big mistake it was,
I wanted you to be there

"The Story So Far"

I can't remember the time or place,
or what you were wearing,
it's unclear about how we met,
all I know it was the best conversation that I've ever had,
to this day I never found someone,
with eyes as wide as yours,
I've been searching up and down this coast,
overlooking what I need the most

did you notice I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say,
two more hours until today burns this away,
and it starts all over again,
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be,
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be

and everything else is irrelevant,
to the story so far,
a coincidence that you looked like her from afar,
is it true that you like to sleep alone?
Or is it what you just tell everyone?

Did you notice that I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say
two more hours until today burns this away,
and it starts all over again
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be

and when the world turns over
ill keep my ears to the wall
and when the world turns over
ill keep my feet straight on the ground

did u notice I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say,
two more hours until today burns this away,
and it starts all over again,
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be

"Belated"

I've never felt so bad in my entire life
But this time i did it to myself
What do u expect from me?
I did it
So what do u expect from me

Let go of my hand
Is it time to go?
I'm not ready to turn my back on you yet
I'm not going to let you down
Let you down

September came so quickly
I wasn't prepared
I didn't mean to miss your birthday
What do u expect from me?
I did it
So what do you expect from me?

Why don't you let go of my hand?
Is it time to go?
I'm not ready to turn my back on you yet
I'm not goin to let you down

Bridges will fall from under us
But we are strong
We'll (we'll) get through this
The earth will open up (will open up)
And try to pull us in
But we'll get through this
Get through this

"Singled Out"

I figured all the years we shared were proof enough
to extend my hand and help you
I know that getting started can be rough
Enthused smile, you seemed grateful
I felt real good about myself
That's until the day you showed me
You needed anybody else

Why'd you have to go?
And make me say these things about you
Why'd you have to turn around?
After all that we've been through

I figured all the memories were proof enough
To maybe open your eyes
From the people you think hold your trust
Do you ever smile and find it shameful
'Cause you don't know who you are?
I am glad you never told me...
You needed anybody else

What will you do
when there's no one to fall back on?
I won't be there
I've learned my lesson
What will you do when there's no friends to fall back on?
Because they've all been stepped on

"The Great Houdini"

All dressed up
And nowhere to go
I think I'm taking this trip alone
Thirty seconds till I pass
The questions you will never ask
Your regrets will haunt you
You know I never had to

But I'm saving myself from you
And did you notice anything?
The change is me
Now it's safe to say
You will never change your ways

I went to your house
But you weren't home
I'm sure you conveniently shut off your phone
I don't think that I'll ever be
The person that you want of me
When all that I can think about
It's you I have to figure out

But I'm saving myself from you
And did you notice anything
The change is me
Now it's safe to say
You will never change your ways
You would give up anything
To prove your point
There's nothing left to say
You will never change your ways

I'm saving myself from you
Yeah I'm saving myself from you

All dressed up
And nowhere to go
I think I'm taking this trip alone
Did you notice anything?
That changes me?
Now it's safe to say
You will never change your ways
You would give up anything
To prove your point
There's nothing left to say
You will never change your ways

"Ending In Tragedy"

I tried to save us
But little did I know
You are a speeding train off track
With little time to go

I tried everything
Tried so hard to let you know
But now I'm on my last thread
Pulling away to no avail

Yeah
Now it's our time
Yeah
Now it's our time
And I'll see you on the other side

Beneath all your skin
There's another side to you
You built up city walls
So I never get through
You built up city walls
So I can never get through

Yeah
Now it's our time
Yeah
Now it's our time
And I'll see you on the other side

Why would I take it too far
With not thinking about the end at all
If a fortune could say what the future will bring
Then I'm not convinced
It's ending in tragedy
And most of all
It's in my control
To end it all

"Over The Head, Below The Knees"

You must not have a heart
Have nothing in your chest
To let it go for so long
And let this go so far
That it goes over your head

You could fool anyone
With your pensive smile
And you could live in your lie
For only a while
And I could only take so much (from not so far away)
And I admit this could be love (but love can always wait)
But it goes over your head

What does she have
Can you let go
Can you tell me
What I am aching to know

You could ruin any mood
Just by saying what's on your mind
You could only tame his body
Never tame this mind
And I can only take so much (from now so far away)
And I admit this could be love (but love can always wait)
But it goes over your head

What does she have
Can you let go
Can you tell me
What I am aching to know

If i'm reaching in
You're not letting it show
Used up your space now
And there's no room to grow
Too deep, can't breath
And you can't find the end
It's right in front of you
But it goes over your head

What does she have
Can you let go
Can you tell me
What I am aching to know

You must not have a heart
Have nothing in your chest
