Bed Head 03:08
Who am I? I want to run. I want to pace into the sun, change my name as you hold your gun against my head. You fill me with lead. I will get used to bed head, I will get used to bed head. Ooh Ooh. I am not who you think I am A buzzard who swims in the sand And you are not who you once were Who are you and what have you done with her? Who am I? I want to make. I want to help and procreate, fill the Earth with my mistakes. I want to change not myself, not my name. I wanna get used to this game, let me earn my own appraisals. I am not who you think I am A buzzard who swims in the sand And you are not who you once were Who are you and what have you done with her? On the road it seems like forever, but it's time. It's time! I will get used to bed head, I will get used to bed head. I go up and down can't pay attention. I go up and down can't pay attention. I've got bed head.

I'm a terrible texter- can't be decoded by professors in the field If I could I would erase myself From your vision From our future For my health So is what I say okay? I'll write home every day. There's never a worry, my friend he can concur he happens to reside by me, okay? I'm a terrible person, most certainly worse than you I've been avoiding all my promises What a great life I've lived so far How is what I feel so wrong? It's been like this for so long? It’s a crime for me to think and jail time for me to dream about possibilities She never delivers I really want to give her something well received I'm a terrible tester Can't retain the knowledge that I have received If I grappled over book by pen I'd forget and I'd forgive and I'd pretend! Oh, what I say I mean- I'll write home...probably It's time for me to leave but I cannot pick my feet up off the ground There's a certain type of traction grounded in attraction and I'm not very proud This time instead This time I won't pretend I can't live life this bleak So, please wipe your shoes and take off your feet Take off your feet, take off Where we go instead must fill up my dumb head with thoughts that I could care less for.

Sweet Tooth 02:46
I have a sweet tooth I’ll bite off more than I can chew In a text river that I wrote I flooded you and soaked up your whole phone There you lie, wide awake and cross-eyed So there, you lied. You’re wide awake and cross-eyed. Say that you don’t, say that you do Make up your mind, makeup your moves I don’t have a minute to waste on you So say that you do I’m afraid you take on quite a lot Won’t you take me on like I’m A-Ha? I know I stir the pot too much My words clear steam, sizzle and pack a punch There you lie, wide awake and cross-eyed So there, you lied. You’re wide awake and cross-eyed. You’re cross-eyed.

I will not back down just yet I've got a ticket to visit via turbo jet I'm gonna mail myself to you So we can talk face to face and see things though Your words don't mean a thing if you send them through the air Your words don't mean a thing if there's nothing but words there That's why I sent myself away Got a flight to catch on a one way plane Never gonna settle for half the world will watch and they all will laugh, "She's just the icing on the cake there's simply more than her at stake It's tough to take in But if you let go now your journey may begin" Just the icing on the cake? This is really quite a lot I’ve got a green light go and a red one stop I will never quite comprehend how all my going-in-circles leads to dead ends My thoughts don’t mean a lot if I keep them kept inside My thoughts don’t mean a lot if I keep on brushing them aside I’m gonna charge and seize the day Gonna make things right, gonna have my way I’m never gonna settle for half The world will watch and they all will laugh singing, "She's just the icing on the cake There's simply more than her at stake It's tough to take in But if you let go now your journey may begin" Just the icing on the cake? There's not a lot of people who agree with me I don't really mind at all to be honest with integrity

Lying in the tub with the faucet on Face-down, bubbles stop where time is long I know it gets better Lying in the tub with the faucet on I feel force rushing down but I don't look back Wonder if I'll hear when my mind falls flat I know it gets better Force rushing down, I don't look back Are you bored or on board? Bored with boring? Bored or on board? Where do we go from here I don't even know where to start from here I don't even know where to go from here I don't even know where to start... Thank You Friends but I cannot lie Life is apathetic and feeling dry It doesn't get better Lying in a tub with the faucet on Where do we go from here I don't even know where to start from here I don't even know where to go from here I don't even know where to start… You know where to start again.

I've been pumpkin picking Thin-slicing cut decisions Leave the lies for the politicians and those with false intuition Is it cloud I'm tasting? Proud of copy-pasting? Who's that reappearing? Cast and called for the silent hearing. I don't know why it isn't pleasant to see you now. I really thought we did resonate, resident. How is that cloud you're tasting? So proud of copy-pasting. I don't mind. If a cigarette is your best friend I will take time to pay respects cause I do too have my regrets...but hey! At least we're not dead yet! Here we go to the trucks with the tikis, they're trying to read me. (read me) Here we go to the trucks with the tikis, they're trying to read me. If your car breaks down on your way to your first day of work and you cant afford to get it fixed call up the Tiki Truck (Remix) And if you’ve had some better days sittin, sippin lemonade you’ll find that you cannot replay you try again its far too late Tiki Truck (remix), yeah

Sensibility 02:29
I’m so scared for My future and plans Do hurt my hands Rip out of walls Can’t catch the Fall I’m so stubborn You can’t teach me how to get along My arrogant mind deems you so wrong You’ve got a big brain You’ve gotta abstain Why am I so hard to relate to? Barred in the state of gutter-stuck ill, drain out my will See you later, nice knowing you Hope you liked me too My hands cannot catch what you did not pass You’ve got a big brain You’ve gotta abstain

I’ll paint the world red for everyone is blue Everybody’s bitter and there’s no one to turn to The beaches are a mess because nobody cares enough There are people upon people who decide not to pick up I’m mad at the world sometimes I don’t think that we’ll make it out alive I’m mad at the world every day, week, month and year I don’t think we’ll make it out of here I always turn away because I don’t understand why everything I think up never turns out the way I planned I’m mad at the world because I’m mad at myself I fall into trends, can’t make amends- I need somebody’s help Mad at the world sometimes I don’t think that we’ll make it out alive I’m mad at the world every day, week, month and year I don’t think we’ll ever make it out of here Every time I get to know you its your birthday and I don't know to get you I'll get you a gift card or something Mad at the world sometimes I don’t think that we’ll make it out alive Mad at the world sometimes I don’t think that we’ll make it out alive

Sometimes it does take a couple weeks Sometimes it gets you down upon your feet Sometimes I can’t tell if I am wrong But better not to know and get along Am I wasting time? Do you have somewhere to be? Every time I try to walk away Your accidental gravity delays me And even if I wear you like a cape, once is not enough to make life great Am I wasting time? Do you have somewhere to be?

Goggles 03:18
my glasses keep smudging call me when you have a cure my view's a little runny is it time to fear the worst do I think I’m some deep thinking guy or something you say I am, I say I can’t you’ll find the sediment stays, the sediment hangs on i’m fine to wait, for you’ll find I’m way behind of all of my kind but I'm fine to sleep, for you you’ll find the sediment stays, the sediment hangs on i’m fine to wait, for you’ll find it’s lost in the froth, way to go I'm fine to squint, for you it’s fast gone in a flash no trace, of the real face I’ve got bigger fish to fry so I turn my back inside yet still we bump elbows dramatic I’m thinkin it through

Transitland 02:52
Back again at my home away from home away from home I'll back away into the fire I'm Back again in the fields where I've always roamed I'll rephrase myself if you call me a liar Everyday I get further away Scraping and scratching the side of my brain Hoping I don't have to go to the hospital Everyone has told me that is impossible Every time I get knocked to the floor I reach for the window and open the door Letting in all of my worries and sins I try to remember but only forget When I succeed in my narcissistic and artistic habits I fade away in my real life when I see the lamp, I really oughta go get up and grab it Fly with the moths, attracted to fake light Everyday I get further away Scraping and scratching the side of my brain Hoping I don't have to go to the hospital Everyone has told me that is impossible Every time I get knocked to the floor I reach for the window and open the door Letting in all of my worries and sins I try to remember but only forget Every day I get, Every day I get… further away! Way out on a rowboat Rocking to the ebb and flo Way out on the railroad Chugging along the rodeo Call into radio Listen to fuzzy transmissions Way out on the rowboat

Burned Out 02:41
You say that you love me but you get burned out How could those things come out of your mouth? There are so many days in between There are so many feelings lingering Say that you mean it ‘cause I want you to Mean it when you say it, “I too want you” There are so many days in between There are so many feelings lingering Here we go again, down the road without an end But we can try to make ends meet, if we keep on our feet How could I be this stupid? You fooled me once, never again You've tried this a couple times, now get in line You came in a vision when my thoughts were null I couldn't keep the glass from being full There are so many fears in my head When there are so many other things to think of instead Here we go again, down the road without an end I got a lotta work to do, without you How could I be this stupid you fooled me twice, never again I can't save myself, won't you lend me a helping hand here we go again down the road …

Silver 01:29
Met you at a Meraki show in December '12 Needed friends so we talked a lot and we helped ourselves I saw you at the park in April and you were doomed Then you saw me and I turned away but I saw you Where do we come from? Not where we belong anymore... I'm on a silver road under hills of gold I;m on a silver road Said with good intent, try to hold your breath- 3,2,1 Underwater we’re getting farther away from the sun Wipe the dust away i get underpaid living on your shelf I met you at a Meraki show in December ‘12 Where do we come from? Not where we belong anymore... I'm on a silver road under hills of gold That Silver fades to black as I get old

Way down high the cosmics collide They're forming wide bona fide spectroscopy: Life isn't boring. I've heard so much, I’ve heard so much I took it you've heard so much, I heard it easily I have seen you try to wake and I have seen the Drake Equation Way up low the winds do blow They're forming wide windows/spectroscopy: Life isn't boring. I've heard so much, I’ve heard so much I took it you've heard so much, I heard it easily I have seen you try to wake and I have seen the Drake Equation Me. Poor me. Yeah, me. Yesterday, homestead. Yesterday, homestead. Yesterday, homestead. Yesterday, homestead. I've heard so much. I've heard far too much. I've heard so much and I heard it easily

Two Bottles 03:06
Two bottles away from a deeper sudden drop Full throttle, away, we are going to blast off 1 2 3 4 ( 1 2 3 4) I declare a war I never thought that it would amount to this I acted foolish but oh, how could I resist? These temptations made their way into my brain 1 2 3 4 How- how could I complain? Ooh I don't want anyone else Ooh I don't want anyone else Not that I mind or that it matters to me Not that I mind or that it matters to me Not that I mind or that it matters to me Not that I mind or that it matters to me I can speak without meaning a word at all It's a talent and it gives me my withdrawals You didn't notice you could never call my bluff 1 2 3 4 I stop acting tough Ooh I don't want anyone else Ooh I don't want anyone else Not that I mind or that it matters to me Not that I mind or that it matters to me Not that I mind or that it matters to me Not that I mind or that it matters to me Ooh I don't want anyone else No no no! You don't want them! You don't want them! They don't want you....
