Lately I've been waking up, on a different side of the bed I don't know what I've been thinking, don't know if I've been drinking and I've been making up these stories in my head of you just laying here, just you staying here staring up at the ceiling, familiar tracks in the walls a quiet moment in time but lately I've been waking up on a different side of the bed don't know what I've been thinking, don't know if I've been drinking Lately I've been waking up on a different side of the bed don't know what I was thinking, don't know if I've been drinking And I've got these memories in my head, of you just staying here just you laying here staring up at the ceiling, familiar cracks in the wall a quiet moment in time But lately I've been waking up on a different side of the bed Don't know what I was thinking, don't know if I was drinking on a different side of the bed

The Ones 03:38
Right side up, upside down, I can not be around the ones that keep you up at night. better for me, better for you when there is nothing left to do, its done there ain't no coming back, live your days fly by night everything will be alright, there ain't no looking back. I can say what I say, if you know what I mean, its done there ain't no coming back. Right side up, upside down, I can not be around the ones that keep you up at night. We fear the ones that keep you up at night. Take these pills, swallow them down you'll be safe, you'll be sound from the ones that keep you up at night better for me better for you when there is nothing left to do, its done there ain't no coming back. Take the haze head up high we can get through this tonight, if we don't get blinded by the flash. It will come it always comes, when the lights go out, don't scream this breath may be your last. Take these pills swallow them down, you'll be safe, you'll be sound from the ones that keep you up at night. We fear the ones that keep you up at night.

Summer Days 05:11
Walk down these streets, snow covered wasteland all I see frostbitten cheeks, cold toes, this landscape all I know dream about the beach, the rolling waves sunbleached hair and summer days surrender my insides, close my eyes to wicked times stuck inside to dream about the beach, the rolling waves, sunbleached hair and summer days Here's to those days Those days Walk down these streets, snow covered wasteland all I see frost bitten cheeks, cold toes, this landscape is my home dream about the beach, the rolling waves sunburned skin and summer days surrender my insides, close my eyes to wicked times stuck inside to dream about the beach, the rolling waves sunbleached hair and summer days to dream about the beach, the rolling waves sunburned skin and summer days Here's to these days Those days

Tell you a story about a guy I know, packed his shit, left and hit the road Never to look back, left and that was that and headed on his way Hitched roads out west, swam streams in the east never once complained of his tired feet just miles ahead a days a day, there will be no other way met simple folk on country streets, in backwards bars serving warm whiskey to soothe his dreams, he never stayed long enough to get his name spent two weeks in country jail, disturbing the peace speaking how he feels, roughed up a bit, 500 bail, cold showers and three warm meals. Met a girl from the South, just north of state lines, a fair skinned brunette warm smiles and kind. The secrets kept, he would not find. Days they traveled and nights they slept, a forming bond with passionate sex, no sights unseen they were arm in arm, two travelers causing no harm. One day he wakes up to an awkward silence, finding nothing in his wake money gone and empty safe, not believing, not him, no not this place. Went straight to the cops to explain his case, gave a description and drew her face, all was lost no one to blame, all he had was a first name. We can dance, we can drink, we can sing, we can fight we can fuck. But what's there left to do, when enough is never enough. We can live we can die we can raise our arms high we can steal we can lie, but what's there left to do, when time is never enough

The Reminder 03:08
Waking up is getting easy, Its the falling asleep that's getting tough I swear please believe me, but I thought I did enough I never thought you would up and leave me you up and left with all your stuff These blank walls are the reminders, of the memories of us So I'll start again tomorrow, head up high without complain, Here's to the pain and sorrow, left burning in the flames, I never thought you would up and leave me you up and left with all our stuff This empty apartment the reminder of what was never meant for us

Own It 05:24
We take what's ours. Chew them up and spit them out and leave you wondering. We stand up tall. We raise our heads, we hold them high, and keep on smiling. We must discuss, move if you are feeling this, don't be shy girl shake those hips. Please, don't rush. Raise your glass and hold it high, and keep on dancing. We take what's ours. Chew them up and spit them out and leave you wondering. we leave you wondering
