The Image 04:36
Let me kick this off Let me take my heart Let me tell you bae The picture on your page Gets me hotter than A salisbury steak Oh why the long silence, baby You’re tapping, I see Your three dot sigh What, you think that you’re hot, bet you’re looking for some ordinary guy Some god fearing mathematician Rocket science kid physician Brain surgeon needs an assist Beachcomber walkin’ Rover I went to school, what’s the difference Hey missus I ain’t nameless Oh yeah you’ll never forget it There’s so many ways to write a love song The image never fails to make its way Plays a million times, still get the words wrong The image never fades away It stays I could keep this up But I can’t keep my feelings at bay It feels like October When you’ve been up on the market since May I’ve loved and lost out there, baby It’s hard as you think You hearing me? You gonna end up all alone with your folks and your pocketbook empty With your god fearing mathematician Rocket science kid physician Brain surgeon take it away Beachcomber walkin’ Rover Went to school, what’s the difference Hey mama hey mama Hey, I ain’t nameless Hey mama hey mama Oh yeah you’ll never forget it There’s so many ways to write a love song The image never fails to make its way Plays a million times, still get the words wrong The image never fades away It stays

Alison Alison, I saw you Alison, you haven’t changed in all these years When I was gone Lost among the wasting You never cried You never thought you’d feel like me Turn your face That’ll feel better We’ll feel better Won’t we Turn your back That’ll feel better That’ll feel better Trust me Don’t you know we’re all just waiting on something Don’t you let it go We’re all waiting for something Don’t you let it go Alison I can't shake this feeling All of it All of this is just smoke and mirrors I’ve seen the signs, the tides, the failing ice And the fireside transmits and times out We lose the fight No matter how hard we try Turn your face We’ll feel better We’ll feel better Won’t we Turn your back That’ll feel better That’ll feel better Trust me Don’t you know we’re all just waiting on something Don’t you let it go We’re all waiting for something Don’t you let it go

I never was 17 I never was 17 You were prom queen, baby I was nothing but a bad dream I never learned how to cry I never learned how to cry But when I think about you now I can hardly keep a dry eye Come on Turn it up Tear it up Start it again Come on Tear it up Cut it out Tear off my head I don't care I never was 17 I never was 17 You were swim team, baby I was sucking on some chlorine I never had a panic attack I never had a panic attack In the back of the class Man, you think I would recall that Come on Turn it up Tear it up Start it again Come on Tear it up Cut it out Tear off my head Come on Ball it up Tear it out Make it a reset A cold reject A hard reset Oh baby I’m blazing I'm phasing I’m erasing and retracing and replacing all these memories Constant violence, violence Banging up against my eyelids Light it Watch it go up in flames I never was 17 I never was 17 You and I had no secrets You and I we had no anything But I only wanna see you again I only wanna touch you again My love ‘Cause when you took my heart and then you took his name I think it tore out part of my brain Come on Turn it up Tear it up Get out of bed Come on Tear it up Cut it out Tear off my head Come on Ball it up Tear it out Make it a reset Come on Turn it up Tear it up Start me again

Fate It bit me like a rattlesnake It spun me like an empty plate That’s why I stay Far away from flames And when I sing I set the record down straight Talking 20 to life I only wanna do eight I only wanna do eight Faith We crashed it like an aeroplane We smashed it like a windowpane So when I say I’m gonna make a change And when I sing I know it’s gonna sound strange They’re talking 20 to life I mean, that’s only a range I think that’s only a range I can wait I can wait I can feel my sunburn coming back I can wait I can wait I can feel my summer coming back I can wait I can wait I can feel my sunburn coming back I can wait I can wait I can feel my summer coming back I’ll be gone You and me both Oh, after all, we're all We're never-done-wrongs Verse 3 Hate It ran us off the interstate It fed me like a silver plate I gotta say I really miss those days And now the future’s so dark You know I gotta wear shades They’re talking 20 to life Only wanna do eight I only wanna do eight I can wait I can wait I can feel my sunburn coming back I can wait I can wait I can feel my summer coming back I can wait I can wait I can feel my sunburn coming back I can wait I can wait I can feel my summer coming back I’ll be gone You and me both Oh, after all, we're all We're never-done-wrongs

Animalized 05:07
Sometimes I feel like I’ve been animalized Most nights I swat at the flies The first time I saw you with those tears in your eyes Oh I Knew I did something right That’s right My father told me once on his darkest day I will never fade I will never fade And my mama sang a song of the golden age She sang hey, hey hey On the day you set foot on a darkened stage By another name Another name There will be no end, no baby, You will never fade Never fade Most nights I feel my spirit pulling inside Oh why Do the people just fall like rain? Maybe it’s the dollar signs, the earthquakes, the passage of time But tonight We’re gonna leave em behind Gonna leave em behind My father told me once on his darkest day I will never fade I will never fade And my mama sang a song of the golden age She said hey, hey hey On the day you set foot on a darkened stage By another name Another name There will no end, no baby, You will never fade Never fade Don’t start forgetting Don’t start forgetting Don’t start forgetting Don’t start forgetting

I’m lost at times This morning I woke up around 5 I dreamt I got to tell you goodbye My weight My one and every I don’t know why I hear you when it’s raining outside I see you when I’m closing my eyes My weight My one and every All I need Is something that can fix this hole in me On my knees I’m begging you release this hold on me Unpack my mind I see my past and present unwind I still feel your hand clasped in mine My weight My one and every Distance and time They say it always dulls you inside If you hear me won’t you give me a sign This time, I need it more than life All I need Is something that can fix this part of me On my knees I’m holding onto every little thing

Hyperdrive 04:47
I can’t slow down I can’t slow down I can’t slow down Sun don’t set Battery don’t fade on me Mirror, mirror on the wall givin’ me the third degree She says Honesty Look what you’re missin’ Modesty Learned all your lessons Honestly You brush it off like they do I do Last in line Wasting our time Lost in our own lives Bathing in the same black light You and I We alright I’ve been running in the wrong direction I been tearing up the furniture, chasing Super starlight alright I’m in hyperdrive I’ve been chewing through my old medication I been touching up my resume, tasting Super dark times alright I’m in hyperdrive Stop and take a breath Listen for that frequency There’s something major in your head And it’s ringing in a minor key Wide awake Your body rejects it Nobody’s home Leave me a message That’s the way You fear the sound like they do I do You’re last in line Wasting our time Lost in our own lives Breathing in the same black light You and I We alright I’ve been searching for a new vibration I’ve been circling the same black line A knife fight in my spine I’m in hyperdrive I’ve been stricken by a new revelation I’ve been caught up in a time dilation Super dark times alright I’m in hyperdrive I can’t slow down I can’t slow down I can’t slow down I can’t slow down down down down down I feel I’m burning through my oxygen I’ve been winning in the wrong election I’ve been spending all my coin on hair gel Airlocks don’t seem tight I’m in hyperdrive I’ve been building up a new foundation I’ve been working on my core every day Starlight in my sight I’m in hyperdrive I can’t slow down I can’t slow down I can’t slow down I can’t slow down I feel like I’m becoming dust again

Angel of May 03:26
I, I’m gonna hold you til the evening comes I, I’m gonna shield you from the setting sun I will keep you safe from harm In my shelter built for one Lived a thousand times And I still can’t find my way While the memories and faces Seem to fade I remember A time when we were never afraid You and I We were running past excuses and pain You kept running Kept on running away Til I drained your heart And made you fearful of day Lived a thousand times And I still can’t find my way While the memories and faces Seem to fade Well, the days keep rushing The dust keeps dancing away So we hold on tight to the night My angel of may I feel the sunlight burning on my face Oh I, I never thought that it would feel so strange Oh, I lived through the acid rains You and I I hope we meet again Lived a thousand years And I still can’t find my way All the memories and faces Seem to fade Well, the days keep rushing The dust keeps dancing away So we hold on tight to the night My angel of may
