Troubled 02:45
I found so many things interesting about your face I found so many things that I knew I could not replace So I’m wondering if you find me a little curious Or do you find my madness quite delirious That’s when I find you troubled
2.
Wait 03:26
Twenty first century is made out of many contagions, but the most prominent that we found in our age is a simple component; one that does not have elements and building blocks and structures that we can understand, but love. Well the night, the night has it’s nighthawks And trees, the trees all have treetops But my head, oh my head, my head has no thoughts As I lie in wait for you Well the sun, the sun has a sunrise And the ocean has it’s own tide But my heart, oh my heart, my heart has no pride While I lie in wait for you
3.
Her Face 04:03
She went for a walk in early afternoon Ice cream trucks screaming ‘round I saw her face just that afternoon I do not know if she drown (oh why drown?) I went to see her family that Sunday at church Their faces were all so wet I hugged her mom and shook the hand of her father Have you seen her yet (have you seen her)? Where did you go my lovely girl I miss her face
4.
You’re asking me to wake up all day You’re asking me to wake up all day I cannot find these questions to all these things you say You’re asking me to wake up all day Oh let me sleep in my own arms The movies aren’t like the movies aren’t like You’re asking me to wake up all day You’re asking me to wake up all day I cannot find these questions to all these things you say You’re asking me to wake up all day Oh let me sleep in my own arms The movies aren’t like the movies in life
5.
Out to Sea 04:22
You won’t have to look back when it’s over As your eyes could not look forward You couldn’t understand while still beside me A life that led you out to sea I made a noose and wore it on my sleeve I drown a ship in a bottle so it couldn’t leave You lie where waves meet sand and be Just praying for it to take you out to sea But we can’t even save ourselves You won’t have to look back when it’s over As your eyes could not look forward You couldn’t understand while still beside me A life that led you out to sea Oh I want to go out, out to sea Where you won’t even recognize me And that’s where we’ll start all anew Just as the sea stars do Oh I want to go out to sea Where you won’t recognize me And there we’ll start anew Just like the sea stars do
6.
Tell Me 03:39
I’m wonder why you’re coming over Oh so late at night I’m wondering why you’re coming over Do you know you’re right? Oh tell me, oh tell me Oh tell me, are you right? Tell me, oh tell me Tell me, are you right? I’m wonder why you’re coming over Oh so late at night I’m wondering why you’re coming over Is it to tell me I’m right? Oh tell me, oh tell me Oh tell me, am I right? Oh tell me, oh tell me Tell me, am I right? Did you think about all those sleepless summer afternoons in the light? Did you think about all those afternoons, did you wander towards the lie? Did you wake up and find that your troubles are not your own? Did you wake up and find out your troubles are after your own? Oh tell me, oh tell me Oh tell me, am I right? Oh tell me, oh tell me Oh tell me, am I right?
7.
Where Were I 03:07
Turned on the light but knew something was wrong There was a filter on them and you were gone Looked around and saw the glass shattered on the floor Killed the lights and slept with an unlocked door The next day the questions came flooding in Where were you when all of this was happening? I was dreaming my mind was living out in space The man looked so puzzled and began to pace
8.
I have to go out in the woods You don’t know where, am I understood? They found a body, it was floating in the river They found a body, lips begin to quiver And now there’s no words to say And now there’s no words to say (there’s no words to say) Platitudes get us through the day (there’s no words to say) Platitudes get us through the day Well she’s in a better place now I have to go for a long drive You don’t know when she was last seen alive They found another body, it was floating in the river They found another body, lips continue to quiver
9.
All 03:42
We’re lost in the woods Don’t you know that’s alright We can’t get out Don’t you know that’s all right All, I’ve got it all I’ve got it all I’ve got it all All, I’ve got it all I’ve got it all I’ve got it all I’ve got it all I’m all alone Got no one, set me right You left me here Do you know that’s all right All, I’ve got it all I’ve got it all I’ve got it all All, I’ve got it all I’ve got it all I’ve got it all I’ve got it all
10.
It Goes 05:47
I know where I’m going Don’t know where I’ve been Seen a lot of troubles I’ve seen broken men I am one among ‘em Facing all my sin I know where I’m going Don’t know where I’ve been But it goes home But it goes home I know where I’m going Don’t know where I’ve been Seen a lot of troubles I’ve seen broken men I am one among ‘em Facing all my sin I know where I’m going I know where I’ve been But it goes home But it goes home But it goes home But it goes home
