Drive Away 03:18
Sometimes, my ego tells myself I’m over six feet tall. Is anybody there; anyone at all? I know that I always have you to pick up the phone and call, but is anybody there; anyone at all? Baby, you know you just can’t leave. You got to wake me. I can always drive away. These tires won’t stay on the road with the image of her asleep. This blood is red. Can you not see? Just try not let yourself get out there and forget me; because this blood is red. Don’t look at me. Baby, you know you just can’t leave. You got to wake me. I can always drive away. I know that the sun will shine the month of May. They don’t make a pill to take this pain away. Baby, you know you just can’t leave. You got to wake me. I can always drive away. I can always drive away. I can always drive away Sometimes, my ego tells myself I’m over six feet tall.

Right Here 02:48
You got your bags packed. They said you were leaving town today. I just can’t crack. You won’t get me off Georgia clay. Have you seen this; as you slowly walk away? Have you noticed? I’m no longer in the way. I am here and I’m on my own. Still immature, but I know I’ve grown. As the sun sets, on you in another state, I’ll pay my debts, and I’ll try not to be late. I can’t promise that I don’t know how to wait. But you’ve noticed, I’ve learned how not hate… I am here and I’m on my own. Still immature, but I know I’ve grown. I am here. You are there. Why should we worry if you don’t care? I am right here. I am right here. I am right here. I am here. I am right here.

Grace 03:08
I need someone inside my heart to fix the things that I take apart, to hold my hand, when skies are dark; you know there’s so much room here in my little heart. I know that maybe one day Save me from grace, hold me from time. I need to know that this place is mine. There’s something about her, she’s in control. Don’t make a move, just act natural. I need someone to push me down, when I walk around like I own this town, to watch me fall, then hit the ground, then pick me up and help me make this sound. I know that maybe one day Save me from grace, hold me from time. I need to know that this place is mine. There’s something about her, she’s in control. Don’t make a move, just act natural. Save me from grace, hold me from time. I need to know that the girl is mine. There’s something about her, she’s in control. Don’t make a move, just act natural.

Insecure 02:56
I can’t figure this out. Everything I wanted, without a doubt. She’s got me asking questions like “What am I about?” I’m no good for her, and I don’t deserve her. Welcome to Insecure. She is stuck in my thoughts. You know I tried to steal her heart away, but I got caught. This goes against everything I have ever been taught. I’m no good for her, and I don’t deserve her. Welcome to Insecure. I don’t think I have ever made anyone feel this way. I’m no good for her, and I don’t deserve her. Welcome to Insecure.

Gravity 02:48
I lost my place. My place had you standing by my side. It’s all a race. Her face reminds me that I’m alive. You broke my heart You took my hand You told me I would be a better man Some of us here, well, we don’t understand It’s all a game; the same game that nobody wins. I walk through shame, in pain, getting torn up with my best friends. You broke my heart You took my hand You told me I would be a better man Some of us here, well, we don’t understand Asbury and me on a playground. Gravity is what we both have found. The see-saw is coming back down… You broke my heart You took my hand You told me I would be a better man Some of us here, well, we don’t understand You broke my heart You took my hand You told me I would be a better man Some of us here, well, we don’t understand …GRAVITY

Photograph 03:10
I keep a photograph of you beside my bed just in case I wake with bad dreams. Every time the photograph it rears the beauty head, I believe that I’ve been caught up in make believe. I don’t want to hear about the guy you met last night, or how you believe this has got to be the one. And you don’t want to hear about the dream I had last night, about the two of us, you’ll know I’ll have another one. Every time the phone rings, I believe that I’m in love. Every time the rain sings, I believe that I have blessing from above. I don’t want to hear about the guy you met last night, or how you believe this has got to be the one. And you don’t want to hear about the dream I had last night, about the two of us, you’ll know I’ll have another one. I will have another one I keep a photograph of you beside my bed.
7.
I’ll wait here patiently, while watching my telephone. Wait; let it ring three times, so she don’t think I’m here all alone. Now I have told myself, that the good guy never wins… I think that destiny predicts to me, forever be best friends. I can wait forever and a day for her to say “baby, it’s now or never, you’ve got to take this girl away-“ From all of the pain and struggle; coming straight off of the hips. My chocolate cookie crumbles straight through my fingertips And I can wait forever and a day for her to say She loves me… (I know she does) I know that all my words are disconcerted when heard on the other end. She tries to misdirect or disconnect these words of love I send. -but then, I feel the passion and the flame (pain) that just won’t go away. My heart, I try to ration, I can wait forever and a day. I can wait forever and a day for her to say “baby, it’s now or never, you’ve got to take this girl away-“ From all of the pain and struggle; coming straight off of the hips. My chocolate cookie crumbles straight through my fingertips And I can wait forever and a day for her to say She loves me… I can wait forever and a day for her to say “baby, it’s now or never, you’ve got to take this girl away-“ From all of the pain and struggle; coming straight off of the hips. My chocolate cookie crumbles straight through my fingertips And I can wait forever and a day for her to say She loves me…

Still Around 03:10
One match in the book. One smoke in the pack. One shot in the bottle. One card in the stack. Run down these hallways, all these locked doors. I’ve been through so much here, when it rains it pours. Laid on the table, my best friend down. He’s not coming back, I’m still around. I’m still around One ember still burning. One star in the sky. One last tree standing. One long kiss goodbye. Goodbye. Run down these hallways, all these locked doors. I’ve been through so much here, when it rains it pours. Thought about the agent of change that I’d found. She’d tug on my heartstrings. I’m still around. I’m still around It’s not every day, the sun shines down. Can you come out and play, while I’m still around? It’s not every day, that the sun shines down. Can you come out and play? I’m still around. I’m still around

Open your eyes. Can’t you see that I am standing here for you, to invite me inside? Don’t be shy. If you promise that you’ll trust me with your words, then I promise not to lie. But you won’t get a song, until you break my heart, and you might have been born, just to play the part. Butterflies made me nervous, made me stupid, made me crazy. Don’t act so surprised. I’m hypnotized by the sound of your voice as it passes in and out of mine. But you won’t get a song, until you break my heart, and you might have been born, just to play the part. This love ain’t exactly what I parents made it out to be, all my friends have lied to me. Please don’t ask me for a song, it’s so hard to write when there’s nothing wrong. You won’t get a song until you break my heart. Please break my heart. Maybe you were born just to play the part. You could’ve been born just to play the part. You could’ve been born just to break my heart.

Why Don't I 03:27
Understanding you is more than I can do. You won’t believe the truth, until it splits in two. All I ever wanted was to be with you. All I ever wanted was to be in you. Sometimes I fight until my spirit dies. Sometimes I breakdown and I compromise. You’ll never hear me admit you’re right. Why don’t I…? Why don’t I? The handle in my hand, it’s not what’s killing me. The pistol by my side, given a novelty. All I ever wanted was to be with you. All I ever wanted was to be in you. Sometimes I fight until my spirit dies. Sometimes I breakdown and I compromise. You’ll never hear me admit you’re right. Why don’t I…? Why don’t I? Why don’t I ever listen? Why don’t I understand? Why can’t I recognize the beauty in you master plan? Why don’t I?
11.
I want you gone, when I awake. There’s no excuse, I can make. Honey, when you wake up you’ll understand. I’m a sonofabitch. You’re a one night stand. Are those real or did you buy em’? Because I was just thinking, where you could lie em’. Honey, without make-up you kind of’ look like a man. I’m a sonofabitch. You’re a one night stand. Let’s forget about all the alcohol. Let’s forget about empty promises to call. I hope you can forget my bloodshot eyes. I’ll never forget the size of your thighs. I want you gone, when I awake. There’s no excuse sweetheart. This was a mistake. Honey when you wake up, you’ll understand. I’m a sonofabitch. You’re a one night stand.

I'm Through 03:55
I’ve seen this place, a thousand times before I wake. I’ve done my time. I’ve spent my life trying to erase. I know what you’re doing here. I know what you’re looking for; it’s just not me. I’ll walk around this world. This place, my face is not for me. I should leave. I’m through. I’m through thinking about you. It’s such a lonely time, a place I know where I can’t be last in line. Last call is a good time to leave. It’s just so hard to find my innocence behind the scenes of this ruthless crime. Baby I believed. I’m through. I’m through thinking about you. I wish I could say that this all made since to me; if this were the case, I don’t know how I could be so naïve. Why you got to be so mean. Pacing in your bedroom at a half past three, as the fireworks we create keep coming back to you and coming back to me. I love my drama queen. I’m through I’m through thinking about you.
