Many Moons
03:48

Close my eyes and all the sudden, I’m in Bogota
With my college freshman roommate, I’m not in the room at all
I’m lost in a shopping mall smelling of alcohol
In another world in my mind, in my mind, in my mind
In another lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
Another world in my mind
Oh to be 18 again in South America
Sleeping in a hammock on the beach with a stranger
Without knowing the danger of anything at all
In another world in my mind, in my mind, in my mind
In another lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
Another world in my mind
I remember when I was invincible
Now that sun has set, many moons ago
I was in control
That was many moons ago
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
Another lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
Another world in my mind
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
Another lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
Another world in my mind

Angelo

We called him Angelo
Like an angel, low to the ground
He was found
Wings broken, arms open
Slumped over the seat
If anyone could help, it wasn’t me
I didn’t know him well
But deep down I could tell what it cost
He was lost
Wings broken, arms open
Slumped over the seat
If anyone could help, it wasn’t me
It wasn’t me
Call an ambulance
There’s an angel amongst us now
He was found
Wings broken, arms open
Slumped over the seat
If anyone could help
It wasn’t me
It wasn’t me
It wasn’t me
It wasn’t me

Thank you Annie I heard about you plenty
I heard you dug him out of a hole
Heard you gave him somewhere to go
Heard you taught him how to love with his whole heart
Love him anyway but I’m just writing you to say
That I appreciate the things that you did
Now I’m happy as a little kid
You really helped me loosen the lid off the jar
Thank you Annie
I loved too many times
Lost too many bets
Left too many beds
Broken up inside
Sick and wondering why
I can’t find a man
But now here I am, happy as can be
You gave that to me, Annie
Never thought I’d ever find somebody I could weather
Any kind of terrible storm with
A lot of it I know he was born with
But I believe that you gave him more of it
His mamma told me when he left you he was lonely
And I’m sure it had to be hard on you
I’m sure your love was beautiful too
But I’m grateful that the morning is new
Thank you Annie
I loved too many times
Lost too many bets
Left too many beds
Broken up inside
Sick and wondering why
I can’t find a man
But now here I am, happy as can be
You gave that to me, Annie

It’s a beautiful day and I love you, I want you to know
I was just calling to tell you so
I was just walking around in the sun
Thinking about you, yes you are the one for me baby
Everything’s better now that you’re around
Whatever weather may fall on the ground
Every winter will turn into spring
I was just calling to tell you about everything you bring
I just want you to be happy and love me till we die
I just want you to look at me and laugh until you cry
From the moment I met you I knew
There wasn’t anything I had to do
There wasn’t anyone I had to be
You weren’t going to love anybody else but me
I just want you to be happy and love me till we die
I just want you to look at me and laugh until you cry
Everything’s better with you by my side
By my side
Everything’s alright
It’s a beautiful day and I love you I want you to know
I was just calling to tell you so
I was just walking around in the sun
Thinking about you, yes you are the one for me baby

I Shouldn't Go Anywhere
03:43
|
|||
|
No excuses, they are useless
Pointing blame has proven fruitless
It just gets me more upset
And it makes me feel pathetic
With my glassy eyes
I think I can see inside
Pierce the wall, find the gall
But it’s just the alcohol
Talking to me, am I really gonna cry
Right now, sitting at the bar, isn’t there a rule or something
I know I shouldn’t go there
I know I shouldn’t go there, I shouldn’t go anywhere
It’s my party and I want to
Do whatever I can to taunt you
I avoid and then destroy
And then I’ve lost the only boy
That I’ve found around here all year
Who inspires that kind of fear
With my stomach in a ball
And of course the alcohol
Talking to me, am I really gonna cry
Right now, sitting at the bar, isn’t there a rule or something
I know I shouldn’t go there
I know I shouldn’t go there, I shouldn’t go anywhere
All the lies I say to myself
All the times I took the bite and hooked myself
Quit talking to me or I’m really gonna cry
Right now, sitting at the bar, isn’t there a rule or something
Quit talking to me or I’m really gonna cry
Right now, sitting at the bar, isn’t there a rule or something
I know I shouldn’t go there
I know I shouldn’t go there
I know I shouldn’t go there
I shouldn’t go anywhere

Jealous
02:41
|
|||
|
Just because it isn’t my win doesn’t mean that I’m losing
Just because it isn’t my time doesn’t mean I won’t get mine
But sometimes
It feels like
It’s a zero sum game, I know that’s insane
Someone else’s gain isn’t my loss
Someone else’s shine doesn't darken mine
But I feel sometimes quite jealous
Standing in the audience crying, what a perfect performance
Trying to lift the weight of my heart, but it’s so enormous
Cause sometimes
It feels like
It’s a zero sum game, I know that’s insane
Someone else’s gain isn’t my loss
Someone else’s shine doesn't darken mine
But I feel sometimes quite jealous
What the hell does that do
I don’t know, do you?
I don’t think that it helps very much
But I can’t help feeling jealous
It’s a zero sum game, I know that’s insane
Someone else’s gain isn’t my loss
Someone else’s shine doesn't darken mine
But I feel sometimes quite jealous

Forgive Her
03:44
|
|||
|
Forgive her for she doesn’t really know what she does, what she did to you darlin
Forgive her for she doesn't really know where she goes, where she is in the morning
Forgive her she becomes a little kid
You never should have been treated that way
It’s not ok, it’s not ok
But you’ll forgive her anyway
It’s not ok, but you’ll forgive her anyway
All you need is time more time to find compassion
Draw another line, draw a line in the sand for protection
Forgive her she becomes a little kid
You never should have been treated that way
It’s not ok, it’s not ok
But you’ll forgive her anyway
It’s not ok, but you’ll forgive her anyway
Cause you hate the alternative
And that’s not the way you want to live
It’s not ok, it’s not ok
But you’ll forgive her anyway
It’s not ok, but you’ll forgive her anyway forever
You’ll forgive her anyway

Graveyard Boyfriend
02:42
|

|
Well it’s Tuesday night and I’m asleep
And a quick vibration startles me
Out of my deep slumber, what’s that number
Oh my god I can’t believe
He’s coming back to haunt me, coming back to haunt me
Telling me he wants me, telling me he wants me back
He’s giving me a heart attack
And matter of fact
I know, I know, I know, I know I’ll never go back again
He’s a graveyard boyfriend
Well it’s Friday night and I’m in love
And the whole world stops like a white winged dove
In a red hot summer, what’s that number
Oh my god it’s my ex lover
Coming back to haunt me, coming back to haunt me
Telling me he wants me, telling me he wants me back
He’s giving me a heart attack
And matter of fact
I know, I know, I know, I know I’ll never go back again
He’s a graveyard boyfriend
Maybe it isn’t fair, but baby I don’t care anymore
I know I can be cruel, but I used to be a fool at your door
Now you’re telling me you want me
Telling me you want me back
You’re giving me a heart attack
And matter of fact
Oh go back
You’re giving me a heart attack
And matter of fact
I know, I know, I know, I know I’ll never go back
I know, I know, I know, I know I’ll never go back
I know, I know, I know, I know I’ll never go back again
You’re a graveyard boyfriend

What Would Jesus Do
03:15
|
|||
|
I’m no doctor, I’m no lawyer
Who am I to judge you
Boy you’re gonna do what you wanna
Do whatever you were gonna
I’m no angel anyway myself
I hope whatever way you cope that it eases you
Whether you’re foraging for dope under the highway
I hope you never give up hope
What would Jesus do
I don’t know, but I know he wouldn’t do it my way
Life is hard, love is cruel
Do what you have to do
What that is I don’t care
It’s a hard world out there
I’m no angel anyway myself
I hope whatever way you cope that it eases you
Whether you’re foraging for dope under the highway
I hope you never give up hope
What would Jesus do
I don’t know, but I know he wouldn’t do it my way
Even if the sky fell out
You could say holy shit and somebody would tell you watch your mouth
I hope whatever way you cope that it eases you
Whether you’re foraging for dope under the highway
I hope you never give up hope
What would Jesus do
I don’t know, but I know he wouldn’t do it my way

Letting Go
03:06
|
|||
|
Nice to see you, how’ve you been
What a coincidence
I guess we’re neighbors now
Look at us settling down
If I asked myself two years ago if I’d be here, I’d have said no
That makes a person wonder what else in the world is coming up
I have my dreams, I make my plans
I like to think I understand everything
Cause it calms me down
When I feel like I’m out of control
But I stare at the sky
And I look at my life
And I feel myself letting go
We’ve got so much to catch up on
Where to start and how to fit
Every little thing that happened
This year has been a trip
If I asked myself two years ago if I’d be here, I’d have said no
That makes a person wonder what else in the world is coming up
I have my dreams, I make my plans
I like to think I understand everything
Cause it calms me down
When I feel like I’m out of control
But I stare at the sky
And I look at my life
And I feel myself letting go
