Circles 03:32
You've been sending me mixed messages these days And I don't know what they say You've been playing all your silly little games on me But I don't like the way you play You say when, And I'll be ready You say stop I don't know if I can You've been runnin round with your head spun round in circles and then you turn, you run away You blame your drinkin, you think you're sinking, it's a slippery slope How much did you even drink? You talk to me Like you're in a hurry That's why I don't like what you say, what you do, who you are inside.

All We Are 03:51
She got such pretty eyes they leave me so surprised when I see them And now you’d never known someone so beautiful she leaves me speechless I must apologize she lives in compromise she don’t need it And now its clear to me that she could fly away be so easy And now I’m starting to feel it Straight through my bones A whole new meaning A whole new home When I wake up beside you No I can’t believe my luck Maybe this is ALL WE ARE Not all I’d ever want Got things you wanna say some things you cant explain but you feel it Said I’ll need to change my ways or you’ll be gone today I wont believe it Is this a waste of time I swear to God I tried its not easy But we can work it out that’s what its all about so believe me CHORUS And I’m shaking from excitement So I climb up out of my bed No I never want to wake you up You look so happy when you rest Can you feel it when its coming on Can you feel it when its coming on I try to stop it but its just too strong I try to stop it and it rolled me down
3.
Tomorrow 03:26
I never really used to climb this high Didn’t like the feeling When I was young I was a cautious little guy That’s not appealing But then you grow up faster than you’d ever known And you feel so far far away from home You turn to something else to get you through it But it turns out something else ain’t good for you You’re waiting on Tomorrow Everything will be forgotten I’ll be fine yeah I’ll be fine When I was young I didn’t want to go go go Where they could see me But now I’m livin in this 4-piece show That’s how I need it Cause then you run right back to where you used to be You forget what you love about your family Swear you said these days were all behind you Still you're freakin screaming hoping someone finds you You’re waiting on CHORUS Don’t hold on to something That you can’t keep inside That you can’t take down with you when you die Your holdin on so tightly You never let me fly At this rate you’ll be the last thing I, you’re the last thing I’ll survive, Tomorrow CHORUS

Boomerang 03:41
Oh there’s a fire, its burning red Oh this desire, its in my head, while I’m in my bed Now it looks like this but you say its like that Everyone’s in but you’re the only one out, just sayin, What you want me to be, I’ll try it all You oughta know, exactly where you throw Your boomerang will come around Watch it go Oh I can see you trying, to break my legs But I’m still runnin, to another day, it’s a brighter day See you take me in and then you kick me back out All of my friends they don’t know what its about, if you say, Say you want me to leave, I’ll knock it off You oughtta know, exactly where you throw Your boomerang will come around You want to know, the colour of my soul, You take me in and kick me out, Your boomerang will come around I don’t want to lay awake, seems that’s all I do these days, maybe I should slow my row. I drink get high and stay awake and wonder why I puke on the way home. Stop acting so surprised, I continue telling lies, please stay away from me Just incase you didn’t know I think theres something in your nose
5.
Baby 03:54
Every morning, I see a missed call cause you’ve been drinking the night before You sent me a message, its 3 pages long I don’t got time to read this at all Should we slow it down, before we lose it all You want it so bad, but I refuse to fall And baby, tell me what’s going on We probably shouldn’t sing this in a song Every evening, where ever I go You’re having a good time there on your own This don’t make me happy nah nah nah Just wanna see what you saw, In him while you were dancing by the bar And baby, tell me what’s going on We probably shouldn’t sing this in a song Are you crazy? I just wanna know what you thought Well you wanted me to want what I couldn’t want Yeah you wanted me to want you but I forgot Should we slow it down, before we lose it all X3 Why don’t we slow it down, before we lose it all
6.
Flowers 03:42
Why can’t you sleep, alone Don’t bother me, I’m ready to explode And can’t you see, that this is all you’d ever want But it’s all you’ll never know Promise that I wont buy you flowers Probably won’t remember your name Told you I been drinking for hours Just to hide from the pain Its like I’m going insane. Why must you be, so cold And so hard on me, I told you I been ready to explode And can’t you see, that this is all you’d ever want But it’s all you’ll never know CHORUS Everybody thinks I’m romantic I’ve just been running away Everybody wants to be loved I don’t think that lovins the way If you wanna be loved, don’t think that loving the way CHORUS Everybody wants to be loved I don’t think that lovins the way Everybody wants to be loved I don’t think that lovins the way I don’t think that lovins the way
7.
Go to the mountain And be surrounded You’re freedom you found it But there’s a cost to your head It was all, that you ever wanted You gotta fight your war, Lone Survivor What you waiting for, you gotta keep on climbing. Hope you know, you’re surrounded You know what you need, and I hope you found it But you’re under siege, the planes been grounded You realize you will soon be dead It was all, that you ever wanted CHORUS I know your arms are sore. But what about your daughter? Your family waits at home. Waiting for their father.
8.
Wake Up 03:50
Wake up. Everybody's waiting for you yeah Shake off. All those dirty things you do I told a few lies, not every time, you just never see That its 2 am and I'm with my friends, while you’re sleeping. And who woulda thought, I'd end up here at your door. I wanna be there when ya wake up Every single time you do, every minute But when you start out acting strange I can't hide my mood I'm not really in it. If it's somethin you don't know You’re gonna wanna explanation Every single time It's 2 am and I'm with my friends I been drinking And I should have known that I'd end up here on the floor Now it's do or die so you decide Where I'm sleeping Because where you are, that's where I wanted to go. Its 2 am and I'm with my friends, I’ve been drinking. And who woulda thought that I'd end up here at your door. I said it a thousand times, look me in the eyes when im speaking because where you are, thats all I wanted to know That it’s 2 am and I'm with my friends, I've been thinking. Just how long can we carry it on from here. Now it's do or die so you decide where I'm sleeping Because where you are, that's where I wanted to go.
9.
Only One 03:30
I think that everybody’s straight up lying, to their families and all of their friends When they say they gonna slow it down, I’m savin my breathe. Instead I’ll take it back to the clipboard, try to think of what else I could do its close to 8 o clock on a Friday, and I just got my booze I think I’m starting to slide, down a slippery slope And if you look in my eyes, then you already know Tell me to stay inside just sleep tonight in bed I'd rather be out their gettin fucked up with my friends I can't be the only one not sleepin till I'm dead I can't be the only one, I can't be the only one I think I need to go some place different If I'm ever gonna make it through I can't stay here with all of my old friends, can't go there with you. You got yourself a bit of a problem, you're pissin all over your pants I'm not the only one who was drinking, at the dance CHORUS I’m starting to slide, down a slippery slope And if you look in my eyes now, then you already know - X2 I can’t be the only on nah the only one – X4 CHORUS
10.
Found me when I was down and out You said my eyes were filled with doubt I said I once believed in hope Its the greatest loss I’ve ever known So I take her in She can’t let me go She said she isn’t finished loving me I said well could you let me know Ohhhhhh I can't believe it Found me down and bleeding cold Took everything I’ve ever known They said do not believe in you, not believe in you Too many rainbows covered up, all from you So you take me in You'll never make me say That we could live in love together But I dont wanna live that way Ohhhhh I can’t believe it Cause we'll go there, it's a waste of time Cause you're screaming, and the fault is mine I'm so sorry, if I let you down again We tried it, more than one or twice You're still screaming, this is really nice I'm not sorry, if I let you down again After all, was it all worth living, all worth living through
11.
Drifter 04:20
You’ve been searching for a reason, just trying to find a way to come back home I know I left you screaming, and I know I left you lying on the floor You’re just floating like a drifter, go drift your way out of my life cause I’m completely addicted, but that’s never gonna make this right I got some good news now, saving it for later Then you hear that sound, She’s already waiting for you I’ll go lay down, and see you in my dreams tonight And you wanted to stay in a place that you’re not truly welcome Why can’t you sleep alone I’m not certain I was sorry, if Id never really try to change And I don't know if we can fix this, but I know that things will never be the same So if we look back now, back to where we started Always some little fight, always broken hearted So I’m signing off, ill see you in your dreams tonight And you wanted to stay in a place that you’re not truly welcome And why cant you sleep alone Yea you wanted to stay at my place but you’ll never be welcome Cause this will never be your home Its been building up, and getting tough, enough’s enough, to leave it And now id never know, someone so beautiful, she’s got the darkest soul, and I don’t need her You beat me down, you broke my crown, I never used to frown, until you see me And now ill let you know, its time to let you go Enoughs enough
12.
Let If Fly 04:11
You can feel it flash like lightning They stare at you as they watch you go I don't get what's so damn exciting, Why are you watching me? Watch the damn show! See I been thinking I hope we fixed this A classic case of the kings new crown But I don't think that you get the picture Of everything that's going down! Oh , you could never see it, with the wool over your eyes You're comin out to find me, I think I'll go and hide Oh, you got all of these feelings, you keep them all inside Then ya head out on the weekend, and let your feelings fly Think about it what would you rather A crazy me who can rock n roll Or someone simple who plays these sad songs Just the same with out the soul. I don’t know if there's someone waiting Someone waiting to strike me down See lately I'm so damn anxious So I fight the feelings and flip the frown CHORUS So I go out side, got it in my head Tonight I'll be a bit too wreck less I should take your help, I should let you in But I don't wanna seem too desperate So I tried to change, but It just don't hold And now everybody's lost all hope in me, in me
