Walls 03:20
lyrics
buy track
Well it started off as a question and answer A repertoire, a moment enhancer A new life, a colony on Mars When you cried in my arms You opened up a window to how I should never feel But the empathetic side of me Can't avoid Something so real The change happened slowly But soon I could handle whatever you told me I learned to be numb From the words that you said And the curses you threw For fun, in my direction A toxic reputation grew Well my friends tried to warn me and my family too But I was the savior you needed, to break through Brick by brick I built these walls A fortress I pray will never fall A place for me to hide When I’m scared of what’s on the outside Brick by brick I built these walls A fortress I pray will never fall A place for me to hide When I’m scared of what’s on the outside And now you’re gone and no one can get in I locked the door and threw away the key And built these walls around me And now you’re gone and no one can get in I locked the door and threw away the key And built these walls around me Brick by brick I built these walls A fortress I pray will never fall A place for me to hide When I’m scared of what’s on the outside Brick by brick I built these walls A fortress I pray will never fall A place for me to hide When I’m scared of what’s on the outside

The Repeat 03:21
lyrics

I don’t know how to speak anymore Since the day you slammed the door And you cut my words short I didn’t know I could hurt anymore Than that time you said that one line I don’t wanna see your face anywhere that’s next to mine But hey, here we are Well not we, just me, and my broken heart And now I really don’t want to be that kind of guy That brings up the past in our lives But I can’t decide if this is worth talking about Or should I just shut my mouth Or maybe give it one more shot Give it all we got Give me one more chance to prove I’ve got nothing left to lose Had only you but now that’s through Let me try, let me fall Don’t hurt me when I’m so low Let me try, let me go Don’t play with me if you say no This is the repeat this is the freebee Been here before but this is a new me This ain’t the guy that you said goodbye Adios to last time Let’s get a different outcome Redo what’s undone Switch up the income I’m not a poor man with you in my life I’m a rich one, that’s right Let me try, let me fall Don’t hurt me when I’m so low Let me try, let me go Don’t play with me if you say no Don’t talk the way to me, Like I would rather be Somebody’s somebody Instead of your honey Don’t talk the way to me, Like I would rather be Somebody’s somebody Instead of your honey Let me try, let me fall Don’t hurt me when I’m so low Let me try, let me go Don’t play with me if you say no

Flip Floppin 03:25
lyrics

Well it’s a beach ball kind of day It’s colorful, but the wind blows it away Sun while we play, but the clouds cover the rays I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts I’d rather not but it’s hard when it’s not my fault I don’t know why but I keep flip flopping my thoughts I’d rather not but the voices make it hard to stop They come in like the rising of the tide Blow up like the Fourth of July Sometimes I think unexplainable things So I go to my mind, take a trip to beach The water cools my head And it keeps me on my feet The sand makes my bed And I drift to sleep I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts I’d rather not but it’s hard when it’s not my fault I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts I’d rather not but it’s hard when it’s not my fault I don’t know why but I keep flip flopping my thoughts I’d rather not but the voices make it hard to stop

Holy Ghost 03:25
lyrics

I’m not your holy ghost but I’ll give you strength when you need it most I’m not your superman but if you fall I’ll lend a hand I’m not your one and only don’t call me up if your feeling lonely But if you need a friend I promise I’ll come back again Again and again and again and again Again and again and again and again Again and again and again and again Again and again and again and again Are you a believer in the things heard, behind closed doors Do you place any faith in the rumors Spread like tumors voice to voice Sometimes the truth hurts, but what hurts more is lie told by a Trusting soul with an ulterior motive Hoping to gain a foothold for bonus But I’d never lie to you And that you know to be true So why are you faking this altercation My poor heart can’t take it Ooo Please stop Ooo Try not To fall but if you do I’ll be there to catch you Again and again and again and again Again and again and again and again Again and again and again and again Again and again and again and again

My Dog 03:48
lyrics

I miss my dog Or maybe I miss something else Sometimes it gets hard to tell What went wrong When this house don’t feel like a home When I’m all alone Grab an pillow and a blanket Build a fort we can escape in Why does my mind Feel like it’s dreaming most of the time I miss my rug It hung on the wall Right over the sun I want to jump But I can’t even run I miss my friend I want him back over again I miss my friend I want him back over again I miss my friend I want him back over again I miss my friend I want him back over again (I miss my dog) I want him back over again (I miss my dog) I miss my friend [repeat] I miss my dog I want to play with him under the sun I miss my friend I can’t wait to see again

Take Your Time 04:00
lyrics
buy track
Take all the time that you need You’re taking my life casually But I don’t mind cause I can see The way that your love was made for me I don’t need your answer straight away You can take your time to rearrange All the thoughts inside of your brain Am I crazy or are you insane for thinking that I want you back After all, I did say that I don’t want you But I need you My thoughts choose sides and they bleed through All the walls I have for protection Around my heart when I feeling affection x2 I didn’t think that you’d fight for me When I pushed you away I thought you’d be On the next bus out of town, but now your back, and I am down For anything or anyone to come around and pick me up and wipe my shirt of all the dust that clings to me like I am rusting like a tin man But I have a heart, but do I have a brain, or do I lack a part For thinking that I want you back After all I did say that I don’t want you But I need you My thoughts choose sides and they bleed through All the walls I have for protection Around my heart when I feeling affection x2 Take you time, and I’ll take mine (repeated) I don’t want you But I need you My thoughts choose sides and they bleed through All the walls I have for protection Around my heart when I feeling affection x2

What If 03:11
lyrics
buy track
I don’t think We should be trying to be something more than friends It might be less boring But at what cost Maybe we’d fall in love Grow up and get a dog Raise a kid fight and split Make it up and love again But what if not What if instead we lose it all I know I shouldn’t put stock in the words That I heard in my head when we’d lay in my bed And the voices would say all the shit in the way of our love and relationship love fades away and it Hurts But maybe that’s the point To learn What’s worthy of a sacrifice Of course I’d say you But of course I wouldn’t tell the truth Take what I say with a grain of salt They’re not worth their weight in the gold that I’ve lost I’m not quite as serious as I claim to be Crack a smile make em laugh that goes down easily
