Idols in the air
Vanish then they disappear
How can I worship properly
I know it’s not fair
Blaming you for something when you’re not here
You flip a switch in my memory
Runaway
I don’t even know your name
No ones going anywhere tonight
Unless you’re gonna run away
But I know that you’re here to stay
You make everything okay
When you’re around me
Penny rhythms gonna take us home
We’re taking jackets off, we’re putting pressure on
Penny rhythms gonna lead us on
In the back of the van at the top of our lungs
Penny rhythms never get old
Just take us home
Runaway
I don’t even know your name
You’re not going anywhere tonight
Unless you’re gonna run away
But I know that you’re here to stay
Just another Saturday
When you’re around me

Times a little
Wasted on me
Me, you know I’m
Happy to be
You know exactly where I stand
I’m trying to be the bigger man
I’ve got it all figured out again
And I won’t waste it, waste it
I got my fortune for the year
It’s saying we’re all in the clear
And I won’t let it slip away again
I’m gonna take it, take it
Times a little
Wasted on me
Me you know I’m
Happy to be
Be together
Walking around
Fine forever
We’re gonna live this down
We’re laughing at ourselves again
It’s nice to not take no offence
Yeah, I don’t know what we were thinkin’
What were we thinkin’, thinkin’
Something has finally been released
We’re moving subconsciously
Not what you want, but what you need
It’s not a walk in the park
It’s not a do it on your own
It’s not exactly what you thought
It’s gonna take a little
Times a little
Harder to see
Hits you in the
Back of the knee
Still you know I’m
Walking around
Fine forever
Not gonna live this
Time it goes on
Now that we’re on the mend
Yeah, you know it
Feels like I found my feet again
Happier now

Shaking Hands
04:11

Shut-in city
Pillars scared of the community
Grown up sleaze
They log online to find their freaks
But nonetheless
They’re mowing lawns
They’re makin’ beds
They’re getting hitched
They’re shaking hands
No contempt for the former life and rosy glow they all once had
But sold it back
And I walk around this seedy old town
And I ain’t got much to do
And I wonder and I wonder
If i’m ever going under
And I ain’t got much to lose
Public parks
And public freakouts after dark
At the grocery store
Nice night for
An empty threat slipped underneath your door
I’d kill to be your friend
And I walk around this shitty old town
And I ain’t got much to do
And I wonder and I wonder
If I’m ever going under
And I ain’t got much to prove
I know, I know, I know know
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
And I walk around this sleepy old town
And I ain’t got much to do
And I wonder and I wonder
If I’m ever going under
And I ain’t got much to prove
Shadows from wall to wall
Inside your head
Another summer put to bed
Lay on your back
Insomniac
And pray
God bless this way of life
You say
I know, I know, I know now

Wrecking Line
04:17

Would it be okay
If I steer the ship today
I’m sinking slowly
Don’t need no one to hold me
Why don’t we let this old girl drown
Gave you seventeen
Of my best years, guaranteed.
Then you found a bottle
And a newer model
But babe, you did a favor for me
Come and say bye to me
As I tear up your street
To get out from your wrecking line
I’m gonna let it die
Now I’m hitting my stride
I’m the first woman alive
To get out from your wrecking line
I’m gonna let it die
Sold my diamond ring
But you can’t buy security
I’d rather be exposed
Than out here in the cold
Suffering for free
Would it be okay
If I sank this ship today
I’ve got a new ride, pal
It takes me there
I don’t answer to anyone else
Come and say bye to me
As I’m tearing up the street
To get out from your wrecking line
I’m gonna let it die
Now I’m hitting my stride
Cause I’m the first woman alive
To get out from your wrecking line
I’m gonna let it die
You know I have my picture of you
You know I have my picture of you
You did what you do, you did what you do

Did I see you there
Soft psychology
Lounging by the pool
Staring back at me
Do the days add up
Or erase the ones before
What have I done?
Do some more
Good taste and great hair
You know we’re unprepared
To turn it off
Living a lie, lying a lot
Let’s live on the sun
New philosophy
Runnin’ down the clock
Lap of luxury
Aren’t we so unique
Look at all we’ve got
With money on our minds
We never need new thoughts
Fine art and great chairs
You know we’re unprepared
To give it up
Living a lie, lying a lot
It’s the weight of it all
That is making us fall
Just take it all away
None of it stays
If it’s a disaster that they were after
Well they got it, I hear the laughter
Can’t we pay
To make this go away
Yeah, we don’t quite believe it
We’re up to our sleeves in it
Promises, IOUs, auction house seizing it
Take it away

Reason To Run

Move
Now you’re moving me forward
Ain’t it something
No ones ever done that for me
Push
Now you know how to push all my buttons
Lying down in low gravity
Give it a little while
It’s a slow burn
Everything will fall into place
I turned off the TV
And made a speedy getaway
Running for my life
Gotta get the show on the road
So I’m changing my name
Trying to find a way to let go
As I circle the drain
Looking for a reason to run
Or a reason to hide
Looking for a star to hold onto
This is goodbye
Pull
Now you’re pulling me back into orbit
Feel like a moth to a flame
Treat me like I got a disease
But it’s worth it
To avoid another display
Give me some peace of mind for a minute
No one said I’m aiming to please
You take what you can get
You miss the better part of me
Running for my life
Gotta get the show on the road
So I’m changing my name
Trying to find a way to let go
As I circle the drain
Looking for a reason to run
Or a reason to hide
Look away as I pull the plug
This is goodbye
I know you
It’s too soon
Ball and chain
You want to
Form habits
Get static
I know you and it’s tragic

What's Yours Is Mine

One of us
Never could just knock it off
On the bus
Laughing at something we made up
We showed our love
By sharing cigarettes we bummed
Your mom was young
Your dad was dumb
But anyway
I tried
To get it right
I gave you all my life
And now what’s yours is mine
And I’m trying to relive
But I can’t
I got half a mind
Gonna take some time
I’m not trying to forgive
But I can’t
Forget about it
We messed up
Ripped a stitch and now we’re stuck
Real mixed nuts
Served with gin and 7-Up
And I was you
And you are me
Made on a California king
We had a plan
And ripped it up
Somehow you stuck
But anyway
I tried to get it right
I gave you all my life
And now what’s yours is mine
And I’m trying to relive
But I can’t
I got half a mind
Gonna take some time
I’m not trying to forgive
But I can’t
Forget about it
You were the punch line
Made of tea and clementines
Born on a weekend
You kinda like it

Heaven Sent

Hey, don’t you hate
Holidays in the United States
Hey, don’t you think
It seems like you’re burying the lede
I run the movie in your head
Can you just act like you’re interested
We got the means
To make you a star of stage and screen
Sign on the dotted line
Are you a little shy
One of the good ones left
You might be washed up
But you’re heaven sent
I bet
Cause
You’re a natural
In a leading role
Quick, on your feet
I think you can tolerate the heat
You’re here to stay
We make a new darling every day
I run the movie in your head
Can you just act like you’re interested
Cause you’re a natural
In a leading role
You’re a movie star
Gonna take you far
Big house, nice car
Make up your mind
Are you shy
You might be heaven sent
But you’re not dead yet
I bet, cause
You’re my protege
And you’re on your way
What do you have to say

When they gonna find a cure
For a dirty mind, for the impure
Someone’s gotta help us out
Funny how the body fades
Cuts and the bruises staking their claim
They’re buying up my real estate
Hour by hour
You know that I’ve been wrong before
But now I think I’m done for
If anyone can read my thoughts
They’d lock me away
I’m just another headcase
Chaperone said get some rest
Send me to bed back where it began
Tying up the loose ends
Quarantine is what I need
Just give me a good book and break off the key
I’m never gonna be clean
So help me out
You know that I’ve been wrong before
But now I think I’m done for
If anyone could read my thoughts they’d lock me away
I’m just another headcase
Sleep all day
Creep all night
Gentle blue
Appetite
Really should
See someone
Sicko world
We’re on
Sleep all day
Creep all night
Satin red
Appetite
I really should
See someone
It’s a sicko world
We’re living on
Goodnight
