Complicated Number

Underground confession
broke through your best intentions
and left you on your own
Casually crawling
out of the comfort of your pocket and down your thigh
I felt your hand in mine
To catch me blind
you thought along I'd go
No, no
Your fantasies are lost on me
still I can't help but wonder
How did you see involving me in your complicated number
A night riding shadow
dragged me into her room
I spun out from her sight
And all your expectations
that I could slip and slide across your checkered lines
and engage in friendly fire
To catch me blind
you thought along I'd go
Your fantasies are lost on me
still I can't help but wonder
How did you see involving me in your complicated number

Time

In my youth at school,
lessons that were fed through empty words with no philosophy
All the lines that wrote my memories I hold were drawn through love, hurt and sympathy
Time breaks through the years we've wasted
but times that find our hearts are never broken
Time breaks through the years we've wasted
but times that find our hearts are never broken
When a moment once attached us by a thread so thin we held eachother up
When the sight of my reflection made me shake away the fears that left me numb
Time breaks through the years we've wasted
but times that find our hearts are never broken
You can't buy back a breath you've taken
can't hear a word that's never spoken
Times that find our hearts are never broken
Time breaks through the years we've wasted
time that finds our hearts are never broken

Different Place

Borrowed time I'm working
to learn from all of my mistakes
When behind every curtain
is a different time and a different place
And I want someone to walk with
not ahead of or a little behind
Leave a mark of inspiration
that lingers on beyond my time
What will it be
Will I be alright
What will it be
What will it be
Will I be alright
What will it be

Brown to Grey

I toss and I turn
my candle burns
I wonder if it's true
The stars and the lights don't make it right for you
I'm watching the days
so many days
surrender to the years
When I look back will laughs turn into tears
Time is chasing me down
did I hit the sky before I left the ground
and it turns me back and forth and back around
Tell me do you think I'm only running circles in the dark
am I playing with the fire from someone else's spark
I've gotta be strong when my heart feels wrong and learn to walk away
cause I want to be there when the browns and the blondes turn grey
Time is chasing me down
Did I hit the sky before I left the ground
And it turns me back and forth and back around...
Time is chasing me down
Did I hit the sky before I left the ground
And it turns me back and forth and back around...

Wine and Camouflage

Another way to grow old
to never ever say no
Hiding from conversation
Don't make you any harder
Don't make you much smarter
You cast away all your flaws
with wine and camouflage
You hope we all will like you
a little more than you do
Don't make you any harder
Don't make you much smarter
Lonely sees just one without the other
is the weight you feel too heavy to unfold
The rest of us we gamble on each other
so let go

Strangers

She's boarding a plane
her eyes are arrows and her lips undone
magazine in hand
she takes her seat as she chews her gum
All that I have is a piece of you
a moment in a million more that I can't find
Under the blue sky
I wonder the world away
Until we laugh and we cry we're secrets to each other
we're unlovable
we're just strangers
He writes his name
biographic numbers on a pages
caught in a maze
that twists and turns him to a better place
All that I have is a piece of you
a moment in a million more that I can't find
Under the blue sky
I wonder the world away
until we laugh and we cry we're secrets to each other
we're unlovable oh we're just strangers
