Last Call

He was getting worn out from trying to save himself
Knocked around and beat up, yeah, feeling like hell
He said, "it seems there's no end in sight and I am about out of my mind"
"I could use a little help, just somebody on my side"
Playing his heart out every night to half empty bars
Well the songs are pretty good, but music takes you so far
He said, "the world's changing fast and I am about out of time"
I could use a word, just somebody on my side
For so many years, I have been out running around
Started out trying to get lost, now I just want to be found
Last call and the last song, and I am about out of time
But I don't want to go it alone, so could you stay by my side?

Back in 09 you wouldn't leave the house
You were certain there was only one way out
And I know you're scared of the thought of coming back down
That was you then and it's not who I know now
On the first day
Of the new year
You were feeling low
And feeling scared
Because you thought it through
Played it out like a movie script
But you'd never planned
On ending up like this
Back in 09 you wouldn't leave the house
You were certain there was only one way out
And I know you're scared of the thought of coming back down
That was you then and it's not who I know now
Trust is a scary thing
It takes time to build
It's so easy to break
When you can't trust yourself
But I see you
And I know where you've been
Oh I love you now
Just like I did back then
Back in 09 you wouldn't leave the house
You were certain there was only one way out
And I know you're scared of the thought of coming back down
That was you then and you're stronger now
I wish it were simple
I wish it were easy
To break the cycle and finally set you free
I know you're scared of the thought of coming back down
But that was you then and you're stronger now
That was you then and you're stronger now
That was you then it's not who I know now
That was you then and you're stronger now

Rise and Fall

There are days when I wonder
What we're fighting for
Are we just dust breathing in and out
Or are we anything more
I have my share of doubts
And shadowed days
And I took you at your word
Now there's nothing left to say
Hey
It's okay kid
We're gonna make it
You feel it all
I know you feel it all
Every rise and fall
So hard to be patient
There's no shame in
Feeling it all
I know you feel it all
Every rise and fall
There's something to the dance
Of the rain on my window
We're falling faster and faster
The more we lean into
I saw the scars on your knees
Heard the shallow breath
We stare at the falling leaves
And feel the tightening in our chest
Hey
It's okay kid
We're gonna make it
You feel it all
I know you feel it all
Every rise and fall
So hard to be patient
There's no shame in
Feeling it all
I know you feel it all
Every rise and fall
Rise and fall
Rise and fall
Rise and fall
Rise and fall
Rise and fall
You feel it all
I know you feel it all
Every rise and fall
So hard to be patient
But there's no shame in
Feeling it all
I know you feel it all
Every rise and fall
And it's ok kid
We're gonna make it
You feel it all
I know you feel it all
Every rise and fall

Ice Machine

The apartment is cold
For mid-july
I keep the AC running
I never open up the blinds
I hear the ice machine
Tumble through the silence
The refrigerator hums
Somehow reminds me of violins
At our wedding
Nearly 52 years ago
We danced all night
And then we grew old
You've become a blurred out movie
And in my mind I keep searching through every scene
Trying to find a clear picture of you
But all I have is time and empty rooms
It's been a week
Longer than a year
Since I said goodbye
Since you left me here
And there people in and out all the time
And I just sleep in the living room
I hardly say hello
Because everyone is always just passing through
The kids sold the house
The split up our things and helped me move
But I still talk to you
I still talk to you
I still talk to you
You've become a blurred movie
And in my mind I keep searching through every scene
Trying to find a clear picture of you
But all I have is time and empty rooms
You've become a blurred movie
And in my mind I search through every scene
But all I have is time and empty rooms
And I still talk to you, and I still talk to you,
I still talk to you

Repeat
02:45

See it in the water
And feel it in the wind
Vibrations of the city
Are racing toward an end
Line keeps on moving
A twist in the plot
Actors in motion
Until the feeling gets lost
I've got no idea
Where to go from here
We're just walking in circles
Waiting for something new to appear
Another one gone
Solutions out of sight
Talking in circles
Until enough time goes by
Let's change the perspective
Climb the highest mountain top
Break down the cycle
Just to make loop stop
I've got no idea
Where to go from here
We're just walking in circles
Waiting for something new to appear

Countdown from Ten
06:08
|
|
||
|
Drive across the bridge late at night
Nobodys on the lake
Kill the radio
Headlights off
Like we're floating through space
Countdown from ten and we will be out of here
Countdown from ten and we will disappear
And I am feeling high and low again
I am a king on a mountain
I am a mistake someone to blame
Maybe I am just feeling ok
Countdown from ten and we can go back
Countdown from ten and we can relax
I'm moving fast and moving slow
Nowhere to go
Spinning in circles
Same neighborhoods
Same streetlights
Searching for the same place
And I am feeling up and down again
I am swimming in the ocean
I'm feeling fake an actor on stage
Maybe I am just feeling strange
Countdown from ten and we can get out of here
Countdown from ten and we will disappear
Countdown from ten and we will get out of here
Countdown from ten and we will disappear
Countdown from ten and we can just stay right here
Countdown from ten let's just stay right here
Countdown from ten let's just stay right here
Countdown from ten we will stay right here
Countdown from ten we will stay right here
Countdown from ten let's just stay right here
Countdown from ten
