Wasting Time 04:48
lyrics
buy track
I'd like to use a metaphor Before you throw me out the door If that is how far gone we are If it seems we fell apart so fast Like Alice and the looking glass Illusions masked the way we were It was 10 degrees below Like children playing in the snow We were distracted from the cold When frostbite came to settle in We were wondering how it came to this We didn't really want to know We were wasting time... I'd really like to be profound Try to turn this thing around But I'm just wasting all your time I'd like to think of something deep To try to make you stop and think But I'm just wasting all your time From your myopic point of view The best was right in front of you But there was more you wouldn't see Demons lurking underneath Start surfacing eventually And when you saw the worst in me You knew you were wasting time...

You see it happen all the time I've always wondered how you're blind To all the suffering intertwined To your policies that bind Easy enough to demonize Anyone you are not like But when you take away their rights You really overstep the line What's your fight in all of this Do you think you'd be remiss To not keep someone else From loving who they choose You hate the lover not a sin You never give in, not an inch Why do you think you have a win When there are people suffering What's your fight in all of this Do you think you'd be remiss To not keep someone else From loving who they choose Is your love so weak That it is threatening To see someone different Married just like you Just like you...

Think of Me 06:18
lyrics
buy track
When you look back on your life And see what passed you by If you start to wonder why I hope you think of me When bitterness consumes And it's eating up at you If it's all that you can do I hope you think of me I hope you think of me... When it never feels quite right And it just isn't worth the fight When you lay awake at night I hope you think of me... When you're swallowed by despair And you can't bring yourself to care If you wonder how you got here I hope you think of me I hope you think of me... When you look back on your life And all you can do is cry When you see what passed you by I hope you think of me I hope you think of me...

Let Me Drown 06:35
lyrics
buy track
You seem disappointed Did you think this would last? The statement so pointed "All things must pass" Are you that naive? Did you really believe in me? If this came so easy How would you figure out That nothing worth having Is just laying about? Why can't you see You're just spinning your wheels with me? Love is an anchor Pulling you down I'm already sinking Just let me drown Passion may be a good thing But not for paying the rent Time is like money And mine's already spent You're just wasting your time I've made up my mind Love is an anchor Pulling you down I'm already sinking Just let me drown Am I just a habit You never could shake? I keep on bending you But you never break Love is an ocean We're a ship lost at sea The waves keep on crashing But you never leave

Washed Away 04:24
lyrics
buy track
The demons of regret That never turned into remorse The demons of your past Are washed away The demons of the second chance And of the third and of the fourth The demons of the wayward glance Are washed away They're washed away The demons that you can't forget That kick you when you're down The demons of “I blew my chance” Are washed away The demons of the parting blow Of the pride and of the shame The demons of the all time low Are washed away They're washed away The demons of the one night stands And all the nights away from home The demons of the next Are washed away The demons of debauchery And the butts and bottles on the floor The demons of lament Are washed away They're washed away
