Weather Cold

Mama raised her girl up proud
She don't need a man to stay
She'll put you six feet in the ground
So you can never walk away
You don't know a thing about her
She's gonna keep it that way
You don't know a thing about her
She'll only break your heart
But you'll do it anyway
She'll turn the weather cold
But you love her just the same
The only things that make her smile
Are Jack and neon lights
And driving off for miles
Without kissing you goodnight
She won't believe a word you say
When you're lying on your back
She hasn't cried for over twelve years now
And, no, she's not gonna crack
You don't know a thing about her
She's gonna keep it that way
You don't know a thing about her
She'll only break your heart
But you'll do it anyway
She'll turn the weather cold
But you love her just the same
The only things that make her smile
Are Jack and neon lights
And driving off for miles
Without kissing you goodnight
I had to see her for myself
To see if what they say is true
But just one look and I was crawling on the floor and pleading
“Baby, I'm in love with you”
I don't know a thing about her
She's gonna keep it that way
I don't wanna be without her
I knew she'd break my heart
But I did it anyway
She turned the weather cold
But I love her just the same
And I tried to make her smile
Like Jack and neon lights
But she still drove off for miles
Without kissing me goodnight

Linger
02:53
|

|
It’s like waiting for smoke to clear
To see the other side
‘Cause I know your lips can heal me
So hurry up and arrive
When he looks at me with those eyes
Like he knows just what I need
And he sees what I’ve been missing
So show me what you can do to me
When I feel you linger
In the palm of my hand
You make me feel like a woman
Like a woman who needs a man
I feel a darkness in me growing
Every time he looks my way
And if he’s so deep in my head now
Can he hear me when I’m whispering his name?
When I feel you linger
In the palm of my hand
You make me feel like a woman
Like a woman who needs a man

Won't

I'm watching, I'm waiting
For his love to burn out
And he knows that I'm listening
To every word that he says
No, he won't keep me waiting
My mama, she's leery
Of what he'll do to my heart
'Cause she knows that I'm waiting
But he told me that he's leaving
Mama, it won't be long now
No, he won't keep me waiting
One last chance, one more fight
Then he'll get it together
He won't say goodbye
And I keep holding onto a love that's not mine
They're talking about me
But I don't care what they say
No, they don't understand
It's just me and my man
No one can bring me down
In this world in my head
One last chance, one more fight
Then he'll get it together
He won't say goodbye
And I keep holding onto a love that's not mine
And I know that it's wrong
I’m watching, I’m waiting
For his love to burn out.
No, he won’t keep me waiting

They All Do

It’s 4 A.M. I’m on my own
How did this happen again?
Swore I’d make it last this time
Why do I even pretend?
When you asked me how we got here
I didn’t even say a word
No, I don’t know how I got here
But I don’t wanna be here anymore
'Cause I know you’ll go, like they all do
Like they all do
Yeah, I know you’ll go, like they all do
Like they all do, after all
Since you left there’s been no color
But I’ve seen that before
And pretty soon I’ll be pulled under
But I don’t wanna fight it anymore
'Cause I know you’ll go, like they all do
Like they all do
Yeah, I know you’ll go, like they all do
Like they all do, after all

Following Me Home
02:35
|

|
Do you think that I should cry when you leave me?
Do you think that I will die alone?
Should I even mind when you ruin me?
Or should I try to run away?
Will you be alright when you’re on your own?
Or will you let the voices in?
You’re digging my grave right in front of me
I’m thinking, “Here we go again”
And you say I won’t feel you again
And I pray that you’re right
You say, “I’ll only kill you once”
And I pray the timing’s right
Can you see that, too, is it in my head?
And will you try and eat me whole?
Am I on my own when I walk tonight?
Or will you be following me home?
And you say I won’t feel you again
And I pray that you’re right
You say, “I’ll only kill you once”
And I pray the timing’s right

Pacific Northwest
03:40
|

|
So I heard you went, when did you leave?
Did you pack my favorite shirt and those black ripped jeans?
‘Cause I know you meant every word you screamed at me
But it felt so real with your pictures down and your drawers all empty
I never wanted this, you never wanted me
Is that right?
I never wanted this, you never wanted me
You said the pacific northwest is waiting, but so am I
And I tried to be your dream, but I can’t compete with that skyline
If the pacific northwest is calling, why aren’t you?
And if it’s so easy for you to walk out, maybe that’s what you should do
And my friends all ask if I think I still have a chance
Most times I don’t even answer, ‘cause I don’t wanna waste my breath
And now you’re on your own, ‘cause that’s what you want to be
But when the sky goes dark and the nightmares start, will you think of me?
I never wanted this, you never wanted me
Is that right?
I never wanted this, you never wanted me
You said the pacific northwest is waiting, but so am I
And I tried to be your dream, but I can’t compete with that skyline
If the pacific northwest is calling, why aren’t you?
And if it’s so easy for you to walk out, maybe that’s what you should do
I hope in the pacific northwest it’s raining every day
And I’ll try to put the pieces together, but they will never look the same

Drifting
05:32

Something about, there’s something about you and I
Somethings not giving, and nobody seems to get by
You stand in the moonlight, your shadow it fills my whole sky
And I want to kiss you, but all you wanna do is get high
But it’s a long way down, where you built me up
You want me now that I’ve had enough
Something about, something about this mess we’ve made
Is it too late to start over, or are we both just afraid?
The distance between us, it’s more than it was yesterday
The view from the passenger’s side only highlights the pain
But it’s a long way down, where you built me up
You want me now that I’ve had enough
Something about, watching the leaves all change
Just another reminder that nothing will ever stay the same
They’re crashing so slowly, headed for the cold concrete
Drifting so far away, but why would they wanna stay with me?
When it’s a long way down, where you built me up
You want me now that I’ve had enough
Something about, there’s something about you and I

Daddy, I did it, I lit a fire
And I hate to admit it, I’ll be gone for a while
Daddy, I hate them, all these parts of me
I did what they told me to do, but they won’t set me free
There’s existential thoughts in my head
There’s gasoline poured all over my bed
And when I drift off, please don’t go away
Just stay with me for a while and play
The doctor’s no liar, he said I won’t feel a thing
And I’ve been numb for months now, do you think that’s what he means?
There’s existential thoughts in my head
There’s gasoline poured all over my bed
And when I drift off, please don’t go away
Just stay with me for a while and play
Daddy, I did it, I lit a fire
And I hate to admit it, I’ll be gone for a while
There’s existential thoughts in my head
There’s gasoline poured all over my bed
And when I drift off, please don’t go away
Just stay with me for a while and play

Magic
03:16
|

|
Remember when you walked me to my car, ‘cause it was getting late
It felt like time stood still
And there was no one else left in the world, no, it was left for us
To take over and rule
Remember when you walked into my room, and walked into my life
Knew I’d never be the same
And then you went and made me my first drink, we laughed until we cried
And I’m still not the same
There’s a magic about us, and everyone sees it
Your walls are crashing down from the ceiling
But I want to thank you for letting me near that
I see a magic inside you where you least expect it
So when you start to feel like you will fall
Darling, I’ll help you fly and rise above it all
And you’ll look down and marvel at the view
But I won’t make a sound, ‘cause I’d rather look at you
There’s a magic about us, and everyone sees it
Your walls are crashing down from the ceiling
But I want to thank you for letting me near that
I see a magic inside you where you least expect it

We're Here
05:07

We're lying in the tall grass
You're tracing my every move
My racing thoughts are silent now
Even if it's only till noon
I'm feeling like myself again
And it feels like seventeen
And the sound of our favorite records
Over the rustle of autumn leaves
We can finally say we made it
We can finally say we're here
And after all we've been through
We're here
