July

|
(Verse 1)
I’ve been riding wild and free
That does nothing to take me from me
No amount of open scene
All I’ve got is my empty bottle with me
(Pre-Chorus)
That does not do anything, to stop me feeling everything. (X 2)
(Chorus)
And I’ll be wild and you won't see
And in July we’ll both be free, yeah
You’ll be wild and I won't see ‘cause
In July we’ll both be free, yeah
(Verse 2)
Bourbon Street or the Eiffel tower
Empty apartment, a lonely shower
All alone on an empty plane
No bottle can fill that pain

I Offer Dangerous
04:25
|

|
(Verse 1)
Tonight is cold and empty, we are all alone
A twilight ice cold drink is all can keep my head straight
The clouds keep rolling and a silent wind might blow
The empty open road I offer you tonight
(Chorus)
That shot is just for you, and I offer dangerous
I’ll set you free of this, and I offer dangerous
Just look right over that edge you can get close to the ledge
Because to you, I offer dangerous
(Verse 2)
There’s a lonely tree for you to be best friends with
Their fruits are hard to find but you can make due
You can smell the freedom in the air and you can feel it
All you have to do is jump and I will catch you
(Bridge)
Don’t open your eyes
Don’t open your eyes
Don’t open your eyes
Or else I might die

Drinking Song
03:39

|
(Verse 1)
Round after round, let’s all go to town and drink ourselves stupid tonight
The bartender is my very best friend and she swears she won’t turn out the light
Let’s drink this bar dry, don’t you dare start a fight
Don’t make me bail your ass out in the morning
(Chorus)
Why don’t you go on and pass me that bottle?
You know that I won’t drown till tomorrow
I want to do the same things I did yesterday
And you know baby that we’ll be okay
(Verse 2)
I say cheers to you all, I’m so drunk that I might fall
Pick me up, oh shit there go the cops
The room won’t stop spinning, how the fuck aren’t you dizzy?
I think I feel a tear welling up
They say this shit is poison, but we say that you’re wrong
Just so you know we don’t give a fuck

Three Words
04:06
|
|||
|
(Verse 1)
This is not a test, it's the real thing
I’m doing my best to make you see
On the inside, I’m empty
And I promise no one can see
I’ll shut my eyes tight, I'm done for the night
My bottle’s empty, I’m not up for a fight
You know I promise baby that I will be more than alright
(Chorus)
Three words can make me hurt
"How are you?" is the worst
Holding on can set us free
Can we be all we can be?
(Verse 2)
Close the windows, so no one knows
My heart is breaking and my soul is like snow
Just between you and me, it is obscene
Why did you ask how I am is beyond me
I’ll punch a fence, and push you all away
We all know I’m after the light of day
I promise I’ll be good, if misunderstood
Just let me do this, I said I will be good

Tell Me Something
02:46
|
|||
|
(Verse 1)
You make sure you leave me half dead, again and again
Drill the hole and see the red, too much has gotten in
Doctor, give me the news
Did you get it all? Do I still have the blues?
(Chorus)
Tell me something, tell me something; Do I remember it?
Tell me something, tell me something; Did you feel the switch?
Is it okay if I take a knee and bow my head to pray?
You tell me something, tell me something
(Verse 2)
Hold my head up for me please, my eyes can barely see
Cut the rope that's holding me, I'm tired of swinging
Let me smile once more
In the summer breeze, are you watching me?

Black Heart Breaks
03:13
|
|||
|
(Verse 1)
You looked right at me and you said it's a mistake
The awkward silence made my hands begin to shake
There is no confusing the solace in your eyes
There was nothing I could do to keep from dying inside
(Chorus)
I trusted you, and now my black heart breaks
I turned around, and now my black heart breaks
You stabbed me in the back, and now my black heart breaks
For you, for you, for you, for you
(Verse 2)
Now I can’t stop shaking and my bones are growing weak
I am so afraid that this pain I’ll always keep
I got measured for a coffin just in case,
because all that’s left is my life for you to take

Ex Files
05:03
|

|
(Verse 1)
Make a wish, that coin won't miss you
Lets watch him drown, now take a picture
It's bad enough that I am speaking off the cuff,
But we know all of me is never quite enough
The ocean deep down inside is dry,
And what's the point of swimming with no waves in sight?
We all know that we are not alone
(Pre chorus)
I want to believe (X 3)
(Chorus)
I looked into those big black eyes
Now I cant sleep at night
You took my hand, I’ll never understand
Now I can't sleep at night
(Verse 2)
You left a scar right under my heart
At a time like this who knows where to start?
Something's missing and I think I know why
On that night I saw a bright light
I was certain then that I would die
There were two of you standing over me,
And the face of death is all that I could see.
(Verse 3)
You flew me to the moon, I can't believe it
It didn’t make a sound, you should’ve seen it
Took me to surgery and cut my face to watch me bleed
After that I blacked out, from what I was seeing
And woke up to find that you had left something with me

|
(Verse 1)
When I see you bleeding in my sink
I often wonder what will be our memories
This tiny space, is it okay?
Should I stroke your silver hair, or should I run away?
(Chorus)
‘Cause I will never love you more
Than I love an open door
And let me see the light inside you
And I’ll hold back the ocean for you
(Verse 2)
I tell myself the star is the goal
But sadly I’ll never truly know
Am I always running, or is this all a trick?
Will what I think will make me happy only make us sick?
(Bridge)
This is all a puzzle
This is all an open wound
How can we see those things that are hiding the full moon?
