Caged Birds 04:39
lyrics

When you close your eyes, can you sleep? Or are you lost awake, travelling down so steep? "I'm gonna make it," you say. Just pull through this day, "I'm gonna make it. I'm gonna stay." I tried to move on I fell into something strong Now, I just can't get you off my mind. I'm a star, I'm a child, I'm a friend, but I am vile. I'm gonna be something better than me. I'm a dreamer, I'm a lover I'm a friend, but I'm a bother. I am free An obscure dream Like caged birds we sing all day Hoping maybe someday we could fly away. You gotta stay strong Find out where you belong and that's okay. That's okay. I'm a star, I'm a child, I'm a friend, but I am vile. I'm gonna be something better than me. I'm a dreamer, I'm a lover I'm a friend, but I'm a bother. I am free An obscure dream Like caged birds we sing all day Hoping maybe someday we could fly away. You gotta stay strong Find out where you belong and that's okay. That's okay. I'm a star, I'm a child, I'm a friend, but I am vile. I'm gonna be something better than me. I'm a dreamer, I'm a lover I'm a friend, but I'm a bother. I am free An obscure dream

Adonis 03:35

Boy, You're just a boy in the body of a man. Did she ask for more when you gave her your hand? What could it be that made you think I didn't know... You're just a boy in the body of a man. Did she ask for more when you gave her your hand? What could it be that made you think I didn't know? I don't know Your mouth is filled with lies and shame Her home is filled with diamonds Was I not enough to change your mind? Because, unlike you, I am one of a kind I'm one of a kind I'm one of a kind My flaws are fine My flaws are mine I'm one of a kind Go back to your bitch, where you can lie down like the dog you are. Our paths may cross again, but I know you won't get so far, I know it. Don't talk to me, in fact... Just hold your breath. I know you like the color blue. A-d-o-n-i-s, no! You're nothing like the ones in books. You have a nasty face and I know just how it looks. Your mouth is filled with lies and shame Her home is filled with diamonds Was that not enough to change your mind? Because, unlike you, I am one of a kind I'm one of a kind I'm one of a kind My flaws are fine My flaws are mine I'm one of a kind Go back to your bitch, where you can lie down like the dog you are. Our paths may cross again, but you won't get so far, I know it. Don't talk to me, in fact Just hold your breath I know you like the color blue A-d-o-n-i-s, no! You're nothing like the ones in books. You have a nasty face and I know just how it looks.

Milquetoast 04:46
lyrics

I guess I wasn't trying hard enough, but I digress... Don't try to make things this rough. I'll do what you want, I'll say what you need, Tell me everything you want from me. You want talk down to me. That's fine I'll know that I'm out of line I think... I was born in a little town with bright pink flowers and verdant greens. Dreamed of moving to the moon and filled with possibilities I've been always told from the start that I'm a man with a golden heart Words will elude me more often than not So what's the point of doing what you want? Break the timid mold, and I keep on grasping Second guessing still feeling tired A little bit somber but staying happy My body can be cold, but my heart's on fire. Tell me that I'm kind, All the time, All the time Tell me that I'm fine All the time, All the time Maybe I will doubt or maybe I don't speak so loud, or maybe time will finally start to slow down After I tell you my life, you can understand that I... I was born in a little town with bright pink flowers and verdant greens. Dreamed of moving to the moon and filled with possibilities I've been always told from the start that I'm a man with a golden heart Words will elude me more often than not So what's the point of doing what you want? God I'm exhausted from being so tired, or maybe I just need more sleep but when I close my eyes my thoughts run wild and they go so deep. Maybe I will doubt or maybe I don't speak so loud, or maybe time will finally start to slow down After I tell you my life, you can understand that I... I was born in a little town with bright pink flowers and verdant greens. Dreamed of moving to the moon and filled with possibilities I've been always told from the start that I'm a man with a golden heart Words will elude me more often than not So what's the point of doing what you want? Break the timid mold, and I keep on grasping Second guessing still feeling tired A little bit somber but staying happy My body can be cold, but my heart's on fire. Turn on a record, it's my favorite song I'll even start to sing a long. I'm not dropping you because you're poison of course. I'm not a milquetoast anymore.

The One (Just My Luck) 03:19
lyrics
buy track
Years after years, I thought I had found the one. A huge facade under the bright golden sun When the water has run dry I start to close my eyes Feels like I’m spinning round and round Hold my head up, you say? Well, this is just my luck. I wanna say I’m not the one, but I hope you stay. Arduous in fortune, solid 14 karat gold Heart of a dying man is what I care to hold Tell me why when I look at you, You always turn your head? Your piercing gaze is starting to tear me to shreds. I will hold my head back up Well, this is just my luck. I wanna say I’m not the one, but I hope you stay. I hope you know I hope you know I hope you know I hope you know I’m not the one I’m not the one I hope you know I’m not I will hold my head back up Well, this is just my luck. I wanna say I’m not the one, but I hope you stay. I don’t believe in much, But if God has a plan for me I’d hope it’s this thing we have Because it’s everything I need The world could stop turning but the days never change These walls I felt safer in are the bricks I start to lay I will hold my head up This is my luck I wanna say I am the one, and hope you stay. I hope you know I hope you know I hope you know I hope you know I’m not the one I’m not the one I hope you know I’m not

Lighthouse 03:55
lyrics

Could you help me? I'm lost at sea. I need help where to go. My heart says east, my mind says west I wish we both had known. Maybe we weren't meant to be. Where is the light glistening? Throughout our strife, and all our regrets I wish we were both listening. Where is my lighthouse? Gleaming at the end of the bay I wish I could see beyond the fog Cause the light won't shy away Is it that all is gone? Where is the lighthouse? Where is my home? How do I get there? I need my lighthouse, oh, where are you? I need a new direction North, south, east and west I wanted affection I loved you the best Maybe we weren't meant to be. Where is the light glistening? Throughout our strife, and all our regrets I wish we were both listening. Where is my lighthouse? Gleaming at the end of the bay I wish I could see beyond the fog Cause the light won't shy away Is it that all is gone? Where is the lighthouse? Where is my home? How do I get there? I need my lighthouse, oh, where are you? Maybe we weren't meant to be. Where is the light glistening? Throughout our strife, and all our regrets I wish we were both listening. Where is my lighthouse? Gleaming at the end of the bay I wish I could see beyond the fog Cause the light won't shy away Is it that all is gone? Where is the lighthouse? Where is my home? How do I get there? I need my lighthouse, oh, where are you?
