oh sweetheart you've never once been wrong
so tell me why did I wait so long
I don't know
I've heard of the sweetness in your soul
I've heard of the beauty in your bones
but I'll never believe a word that I am told
so help me, i don't want to feel this way
believe me I wouldn't change a thing

hey come in it's cold outside
nobody's here but hey I tried
since you've gone nothing's changed
look at how your friends all aged
it's a long way up, I'll blow it, but my mind's made up, I'm going
everyone was sad to see you go away and not take me
but it's alright, don't believe the hype

What We're Used To

I'm sorry for staring, I just can't believe my eyes, I don't wanna scare ya, but you look so much thinner than last time
and you try to hide but it always finds you and it's kinda sad but it's what we're used to
I said I'm sorry I've never seen that face before, I think I'd remember it looks like someone I used to live for

blowing out the candles, growing up too fast
everybody wants to see the sunshine but that's a lot to ask
going to your party, standing by the door
I'd really rather hang around outside here..but I don't know what for. no.
and I go crazy just waiting for the phone to ring or maybe just a knock on the door
I'm counting on my fingers, I'm failing all my friends
everybody wants to see the sunshine but no one thinks he can
I go crazy, I only want the little things (and maybe just a little bit more)
everybody wants to see the sunshine, but no one thinks he can.

Middle of Winter

back when we were younger getting lost beneath the waves
living underwater I could hold my breath for days
now it's not so easy, since you've lost the will to swim
and the water's freezing (but I'll still jump in)
and if I carry on like this, lock me out in the middle of winter
wrap my name around my wrist and send me on and on
now I've cleaned my act up, but I'm still too dumb to see
why the party's over and you're still so nice to me
and if you leave me hanging, I will understand and you'll be free
but if you hear me singing, leave the basement light on for me
and if I carry on like this, lock me out in the middle of winter
wrap my name around my wrist and send me on and on

and everything she keeps inside her, do you really want to know?
if she fills your head with fire will you laugh and let it go?
and I guess you really love her..and I guess she loves you too
and I guess you really love her..and there's nothing I can do
and what's it like to sit beside her, in the corner of the room?
and will she tell you all her secrets, when you take her to the moon?
and I guess she really loves you..and I guess you love her too
and I guess she really loves you..and there's nothing I can do.

safe to say he's gone away for good, you said he would, he found you
praying for a crash along the shore. a lucky catch or?
your familiar love is in the way and you're the only one who can't escape
grab him by the tongue and fill his lungs and fly away
safely tucked away beneath the floor, I've had a friend like you before
the mattress up against the wall, i've seen it all

Anxiety

It's hard to fall asleep at night
I never have an appetite
how can I sing of the goodness of anything if nothing ever feels right?
hey son, why so glum? Isn't that the girl you like (ooh la la!)
hey son, go have fun, the best years of your life are here and they're gone.
everywhere I look I see people with anxiety
maybe there's something else we should be talkin bout if everyone's as sad as me
hey kid, god forbid you get the chance to have the things your parents did
hey man, try to understand you're not the boy you used to be so take my hand
everywhere I look I see people with anxiety
maybe it's somethin, it's probably nothin
it doesn't mean a thing to me

oh melody would you believe
there's nothing I don't have that I do not need
look at me, you're tearing my heart out
don't look for answers where you can not reach
like the seasons that come and go
there's not a good reason to stay
but I'd like to keep you on my mind
oh melody, playing around
I found the answer to all my beliefs
so marry me, I'm tearing my hair out
it's not a secret that we can't conceive
like these feelings that come and go
there's not a good reason to stay
but I'd like to keep you by my side
I told you
oh melody, tear me apart
loving somebody was never this hard
so look at me, you're wearing us both out
it's not a secret that we're meant to be
like the seasons that come and go
there's not a good reason to stay
but I'd like to keep you on my mind
I'd like to keep you by my side
I'd like to see you one more time
I told you

you say everyday that it will come tomorrow
hey man, join my rock band
we'll play ohio
I've never had a thing to lose cause nobody knows me
I've never had my own excuse cause nobody told me
you say it's not that way, it's never as expected
so late and far away and always disconnected
that's true but that's just you. I really think I'll make it
I'm nice and funny, too, and dumb enough to fake it
I've never had a thing to lose cause nobody knows me
I've never had my own excuse cause nobody told me
