Race to the Bottom
03:41
|
|||
Every night has it’s moments
You pick and you choose
This one or that one, you’re such a natural
You can’t lose
One more shot for my courage
Two for my pride
3 shots stand empty
I feel alive tonight
It’s just a race to the bottom again
And you’re going down
So many voices are singing
They’re calling me out
I question the choir
I could never rely on them anyhow
Like this drink I’ve been aging
and holding my breath
I’m thinking the thoughts that lead to the thoughts
of somebody else
and it’s just a race to the bottom again
you’re going down

Everything
03:15
|

Everything you thought it would be
Everything you thought it would be
A picture of the past in the future that you see
Is it everything you thought it would be?
Like a fireworks show on the fourth of July
a sunset in the California sky
meeting your daughter for the very first time
everything that’s happened in your life
I hope it was everything you thought it would be
Everything you thought it would be
A picture of the past in the future that you see
Is it everything you thought it would be?
Like the summer when you told me that we’d never get old
campfire smoke when you started getting cold
You were falling in love for the very last time
everything that’s happened in your life
I hope it was everything you thought it would be
Holding on to you, you were holding on to me
A picture of the past in the future that you see
Is it everything that you thought it would be?

All With You
03:12
|

You know sometimes these lines
are telling stories on our faces to remind
the wrinkled pages crease more with time
they betray every smile
Tonight I’m telling secrets
You already knew
I know I’m gonna show off
that’s just what I do
and I just might be able to prove
I want to see it all with you
I can read the stories that surround your eyes
I love it when you smile how they come alive
Tonight I want to climb up beyond the past and view
I want to see it all with you
Every moment, every step
I want to see how high we can get
Up to a summit we haven't reached yet
I want to see it all with you

Going That Way
03:31
|
|||
an open road
my best friend
if you don’t stop then it will never end
so take my hand
a heart-shaped mountain ain’t the promised land
and if anyone could lead you astray
I’m going that way
please take my hand
a heart-shaped mountain ain’t the promised land
but if anyone could lead you astray
I’m going that way
I’m gonna climb up
Find you at the top where you belong to be
Wrap my arms around your heart
If you’ll only let me
I got a chance to make amends
Upon a heart-shaped mountain
My chance to make amends
Upon a heart-shaped mountain
My home.

Height of My Fears
04:25
|
|||
My thoughts take flight on terrible wings
They soar over unspeakable things
Canyons carved out by rivers of tears
Mountains rise up to the height of my fears
Up to the height of my fears
I see it all from way up here
If I start to fall from the height of my fears
the moment that it all seemed crystal clear
I know my head is such a horrible place
nightmares and what-ifs taking up space
I can’t seem to believe that you won’t disappear
My thoughts rise up to the height of my fears
Up to the height of my fears
At the height of my fears I’m losing you
Or you’re letting me go
I see it all from way up here
If I start to fall from the height of my fears
the moment that I saw you disappear
the moment when it all seemed crystal clear

Land Beyond
02:23
|
|||
Beyond this land of parting, losing and leaving
Far beyond the losses darkening this
Far beyond the sighing, moaning and weeping
Lies the Summerland of bliss
Land beyond, so fair and bright
Land beyond, where is no night
Beyond this land of waiting, seeking and sighing
Far beyond the sorrows darkening this
Far beyond the pain, sickness and dying
Lies the Summerland of bliss
Land beyond, so fair and bright
Land beyond, where is no night
Oh, happy Summerland of bliss

The Party
03:45
|
|||
nobody told you it's a game
of musical chairs and you better have a seat
when the music stops
you better have a seat
all of your friends got married overnight
you haven't found anybody just yet
and you don't even want to try tonight
why do we always seem to be the last ones here at the party?
now everyone you know is having kids
and you can't remember all the new names
but you try to remember all of the new names
the people around us said that it was getting late
the people around us said that they were going
and before we knew what happened, life it couldn't wait
why do we always seem to be the last ones here at the party?
we're the last ones here
everybody's gone
ain't is just like us to stay a little to long
we're the last ones here
everybody's found their way back home
now we're all alone
together on our own
Why do we always seem to be the last ones here at the party?
Yeah, me & you always see the night through to the sunrise.

Arkansas
03:38
|

how you been?
how’s your summer?
of course you’ve heard the rumor going around
but the truth it’s even better
what we got away with they never found out
you know we broke every law in Arkansas
we only broke every law in Arkansas
Fayetteville, I wasn’t worried
looking back now I should’ve had my doubts
but we made it to the Mountain &
the festival where our friends were freaking out
you know we broke every law in Arkansas
you know we broke every law in Arkansas
I don’t know how but we got away with it all
we only broke every law in Arkansas

Favor
02:57
|
|||
Living it ain’t easy, nothing in life is free
If I did you a favor, would you do one for me
Turn your back on the world
Live off the grid
Turn off your phone
You’ll be glad that you did
Follow your heart back home
You know where I live
Turn your back on the world for me
If you got a favor to give
Everyone’s a sinner, not everyone’s a saint
You laughed when I told you I knew which one that I ain’t
Turn your back on the world
Live off the grid
Turn off your phone
You’ll be glad that you did
Follow your heart back home
You know where I live
Turn your back on the world for me
If you got a favor to give

Telluride
03:40
|
|||
Man, don’t bring me down tonight
Man, don’t bring me down tonight
Why would you bring that up?
It just ain’t right…in Telluride
I came here to leave it behind
I came up here to leave it all behind
I climbed so high to clear my mind…in Telluride
I see the moonlight upon the Mountain
I know the snowfall is rolling in
So many people, but who's counting?
I know the new year will bring some changes
I know the old one is gone for good
So many memories, but who's counting in Telluride?
