Mountaineer
03:44
|

I was alone before they brought you here
Sitting out the storm it’s been a heavy year
The rain clouds your eyes, I can feel your fear
I’ve been hardened by you darling dear
Still there are days
I long for you
I am tough as nails, I am a mountaineer
I will climb these jagged peaks and leave the valleys for you dear
I am a mountaineer
You never knew me with my heart open wide
Wanting nothing more than to be by your side
When the rain clouds your eyes I’ll say it’s justified
I’m all torn up
Still there are days
I long for you
I am tough as nails, I am a mountaineer
I will climb these jagged peaks and leave the valleys for you dear
I am a mountaineer
I thought I could hold you
I thought I could
Still there are days
I long for you
I am tough as nails, I am a mountaineer
I will climb these jagged peaks and leave the valleys for you dear
I am a mountaineer
I am a mountaineer
I am a mountaineer

It’s Always Been You
03:36
|
|||
I remember the old days
The way you would say to me I love you with only your eyes
Our hands intertwined
Like leaves on a vine we were thick as thieves
I begged you please don’t leave
Don’t leave me
When I am with you
weightlessness passes thru me
The lightning still beyond the trees
I can do anything
Anything
I’ve been in love for sure
But I never knew this before
You
You
It’s always been you
I remember the old days
The way you would say to me I love you with only your eyes
Our hands intertwined
Like leaves on a vine we were thick as thieves
I begged you please don’t leave
Don’t leave me
When I was with you
weightlessness passed thru me
Now the thunder brings me to my knees
I can’t feel anything
I’ve been in love for sure
But I never knew this before
You
You
It’s always been you

No warmth in your eyes
Don’t call me your friend
I hate you now
I won’t talk out of turn
Won’t lose control
I hate you
I could say our lives have gone all wrong
I gave my heart to pay the debts on us
No warmth in your eyes
Don’t call me your friend
I hate you now
I won’t talk out of turn
Won’t lose control
I hate you
What a masquerade you never gave the way you take don’t blame it all on me
What a masquerade you never gave the way you take don’t blame it all on me
What a masquerade you never gave the way you take don’t blame it all on me
Late at night you’re talking
I let the words fly to hurt my ears
To make it easy to leave here.
No warmth in your eyes
Don’t call me your friend
I hate you now
I won’t talk out of turn
Won’t lose control
I loved you, you know

Show Yourself Out
03:23
|
|||
I know what I heard, you had the last word. The rest is all a blur
In the car that night I was far from fine driving at the speed of light.
I poured my heart into you
You let me down
You let me down
I gave it all—lost in you
But you showed yourself
You show yourself out
You do everything you please
You bare your teeth
You’re living in a dream
Now I’m taking back control
It’s time you go
Watch me explode!
I poured my heart into you
You let me down
You let me down
I gave it all—lost in you
You show yourself
You show yourself
You show yourself out
Broken hearts, split in two
It’s what we do
You know, you do
I poured my heart into you
You let me down
You let me down
I gave it all, I was lost in you
I’m gonna turn it around
I’m gonna turn it around
I played my part
I’m ready to be true to me, not you
You know—you can show yourself out

Last One
03:34
|
|||
This is the last one
You never wanted
For everyone to see the inside
I say too much always
Some words are more damaging than touch
I fall back on my old ways, pretending not to care
Broken in two
Reasons we knew not to
This is the last one for you I swear
You never wanted to be my mine, to be mine
For everyone to see us fucked up on the
inside
Find your way over here
We’ll be like old friends laughing at the hard times
Roasting our hearts by the fire
Pretending not to care
Broken in two
Pieces unglued
Reasons we knew not to
But you won’t be here
Cause you won’t see me
So we won’t say things
We know are lies
Broken in two
Pieces unglued
Reasons we knew not to
(I’ve been sleeping less and less. You’re in my dreams every night. I never told you.)

Not Long Ago
03:15
|
|||
Not long ago we were mesmerized by the Ferris wheel
Learned to smoke, borrowed the car and returned the wheel
Running blind, there’s no guide
Till we’re grown
Strong enough to carry on
Through life that’s filled with song and pain
Each passing yields the next refrain
Now you’re gone
Still the sadness lingers on
Twenty years have come and gone my friend
Will I see you again?
Scott told a joke but Shelby‘s eyes said “you’ve misunderstood”
Ben held my hand while Paul drove us all ‘round the neighborhood
Where we played and we cried
In a daze that you died
Till we’re grown
Strong enough to carry on
Through life that’s filled with song and pain
Each passing yields the next refrain
Now you’re gone
Still the sadness lingers on
Twenty years have come and gone my friend
Will I see you again?
I hear your voice across the sea
Wash over me
With a smile upon your face
So gracefully
Put your heart in my hand
You’ll live again
Now you’re gone
Still these memories carry on
I’ll sing them in the song for you my friend
Until I see you again

Bitter Cold
02:55
|
|||
I’ll stay inside to avoid the bitter cold
Weighed down by lazy bones
I found your note that night you closed the door
It said that you were leaving
I say I’ll be just fine
As long as I can keep from bleeding dry
This room is spinning like a game show wheel
One of us is
One of us is not going to heal
I’ll stay inside to avoid the bitter truth
Weighed down by broken bones
I burned your note the night you closed the door
It said that you were leaving
I say I’ll be just fine
This room is spinning like a game show wheel
One of us is
One of us is not going to heal

I Told You It’s Over
04:51
|

I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
Don’t cry on my shoulder
When I was low just where were you
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
I’ve been chasing a hurricane
Every argument makes me feel a little more insane
In the eye you forget
But I know there’s a storm yet to come
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
Don’t cry on my shoulder
When I was low just where were you
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
Nothing left—just a shell of me
I’ve become someone else
I buried my head so deep
In the light I awake
And I know there’s a choice to make
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
Don’t cry on my shoulder
When I was low just where were you
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
Don’t cry on my shoulder
When I was low just where were you
All those years I needed you
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
Don’t cry on my shoulder
When I was low just where were you
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
Don’t cry on my shoulder
When I was low just where were you
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
Don’t cry on my shoulder
When I was low just where were you
I told you it’s over
I am walking out on you
....
I told you it’s—

Small Town
04:04
|
|||
I walked you out to your car
No words, only stars
You leaned in a little too far
Nobody knows
We took the long way
So close I feel it now
don’t make a sound
In this small town
Eyes down we stare at the ground
this night draws to a close I feel it
You say you’re leaving, you won’t.
This small town
We stumble out of the bar
Cold words, throwing stones
Things went a little too far
Nobody knows
We took a wrong way
Got lost in the dark
Well maybe we were from the start
Eyes down we stare at the ground
This night draws to a close, I feel it
you say you’re leaving, you won’t
Eyes down we stare at the ground
This night draws to a close, I feel it
you say you’re leaving, you won’t
this small town.
I tried to break out but I still look for you in
this small town
(Do you know what you’ve done?)
Nothing to do
And I tried to break out but I still think of you and it
(The one I can’t overcome)
gets me down, gets me down, gets me down
I tried to break out but I still look for you
We sneak around sneak around sneak around
(Do you know what you’ve done?)
I tried to break out but I still think of you in
this small town
(The one I cant, the one I can’t)
I tried to break out but I still look for you in
this small town,
(Do you know what you’ve done?)
Small town, small town
I tried to break out but I still think of you and it gets me down
(The one I can’t overcome)
I tried to break out but I still look for you
I tried to break out but I still look for you
I tried to break out but I still look
(Did you know you’d be the one?)

T.E.A.R.S
04:41
|
|||
We’ll always be in and out of love
This can’t last forever
We’re running uphill if we try
A stone to bend the spine
In my sleep I fall behind
You say you think we’re clever
For keeping our toes in line
Well, that idea is fine
But I lose myself from time to time
We’ll always be in and out of love
Change—what an endeavor
Unless our stars align
Dark corners of my mind
He’s in my thoughts all the time
When we can be together
When this will satisfy
And there’s no need to mollify
What’s in the dust we’ll leave behind
We’ll always be in and out of love
If you put up a wall I’ll tear it down
You’ll build one again
When I say that I’ll leave you know I’m going to stay
It’s always that way
But the heart of it goes right out your window
Still we can’t let go
Nothing ever changes
We’ll always be in and out of love
