I can't see this lasting too long
I'm already done
I'm not in it for the long haul
To see what you've got
And I've been dying just to ask you
Underneath the setting sun
Can I have your love tonight?
And I know it might seem crazy
But I've got to pass it on
Communication killed us all along
And now you're all just wondering
Could it all have been my fault
It doesn't matter now I'll take the fall
Rose City you're bringing me down
Rose City stop dragging me down
I'm so high get off my cloud
Rose City you're bringing me down
The streets they seem so friendly
But all the trash comes seeping through
Always something going on but nothing to do
Well she walks up tall on Sunday
Come Friday afternoon
Just seems again I've spoken too soon
To the bottom of the sea
Just where I knew I would be
You've dragged me down
Look at me now

Rapids

I sat around and watched the paint dry just the other day
I thought to myself it would be nice just to be right one time
And now it seems like I'm wasting more of your time
I'd really like you to see the bigger picture with me
I can't help but fight it
Everything's not as it seems and everyone's got their schemes
But I can't ride these rapids anymore
What's it like to feel like you know everything in this world
I only ask cause I don't know where its been coming from
Might as well just lock the door now and burn it to the ground
I've been washed up on the shore climbing out of this sea of words
I promise I won't slow you down anymore
Drag my name through the mud, you've ripped me up and thrown me out
Well that's okay 'cause I don't need you anymore
Not anymore
I sat around and watched the paint dry just the other day
I thought to myself it would be nice just to be right one time
And now it seems like I'm wasting more of your time

Shameless

I've been dreaming of a day when I can be free like a bird is
And then I'll see what I truly have dreamt at night while the sun sleeps
I've been so lost but I don't want to be found
I can find my way back home, where I first lost my faith in all these things scattered in this place
And there's a way to make it where you're coming from
And there's a day so just hold on you'll be alright
Tonight I sleep alone alright, not quite I've been in the deep end
Flailing, failing to keep my head above the suds in this water
And there's a way to make it where you're coming from
And there's a day, so just hold on you'll be alright
And they say I'll do shameless thing to just get by
The fog seeps in to all the cracks that are still left in this broken old heart of mine I've let bleed dry some years ago when I lost it all

Larlyn, where have you been?
Your knees are brown, will you regret it?
Larlyn, I thought you said
You'd be home around nine or ten
Larlyn, wipe off that grin
What the hell could you have been out doing?
Larlyn, what's in your head?
I only ask 'cause I just can't figure you out
Larlyn, what time is it?
Where are we going? I can smell the ocean clearly
Larlyn, please take my hand
And whisper softly how the night will never end
Larlyn, what's that you said?
I didn't hear you, could it lead me to my end?
Larlyn, what's in your head?
You had me worried and it just don't seem to phase you
Larlyn, where have you been?
Tommy's missing and you were last seen with him
Larlyn, please use your head
Don't get yourself in something I can't get you out of
Larlyn, come back to bed
You've left me all alone for quite some time now
What's that you said? (I didn't hear you)
Could it lead me to my end? (What's that you said?)
The ocean's calling (Underneath its breath)
What's that you said? (I couldn't hear you)
Can't spill secrets when you're dead (What's that you said?)
A sinking feeling (A sinking feeling in my head)
Larlyn, what's that you did?
I'm feeling woozy and the lights are slowly fading
Larlyn, it's time for bed
I don't know why I just can't help this sinking feeling in my head

Tragedy

Found dead yesterday, tell me all about her family
'Cause I'm excited by tragedy
Flip on the TV, who was killed in the Middle East?
'Cause I'm excited by tragedy
And I don't like what I've been seeing
I'd much rather be dreaming of the days when we still could roam free
Lately I've been thinking what's so good about winning?
When everybody's rooting for the other team
With all of this debris and shrapnel in our teeth
I'm excited by tragedy
Hide behind your screen, tell me all you think of me
'Cause I'm excited by tragedy
When all of this hits home we'll find ourselves alone
I guess it's time to go
