It’s a long wait at the doctor’s office
It’s a long, long wait
Well I hope that I get good news
I really hope I get good news
Doctor, doctor tell it to me straight
Doctor, doctor please
Well I really got a lot to lose
I really got a lot to lose

So Tired
04:17
|
|||
|
I’m so tired my head is numb
My feet are filled with sand
Feels like I’ve been thrown all around
With no time left to land
I’ve been all ‘round the block but
I don’t know what I have seen
Been that way ten years or more
I still don’t know what that means
Day by day and night by night
I still can’t find the time
To sit down alone in my bed in my home
And sort out all the thoughts in my mind
I’d like to think that someday it will all come to me
Until that day I’m searching for a better place to see
Who I could be
(First refrain)
Take a walk around the block
Just tryin’ to kill some time
No sense of direction and no real intentions
There’s nothing I’m trying to find
That’s when all of the craziest things
Make themselves clear to me
Sometimes you just have to take a step back
If you wanna really see
What it all means
(Second refrain)
(Sawyer solo)

Mind On Fire
05:03
|
|||
|
We’re the same
You and I
Bound by time
Coldest bones
Left to die
Among the stones
My mind is yours on fire
You carried us to the tallest spire
Give me your mind on fire
[Sawyer solo]
Hummingbird
Floating by
Moons and tides
Dark of night
So you heard
About my drive
My mind is yours on fire
You carried us to the tallest spire
Give me your mind on fire
[Matt solo]
My mind is yours on fire
You carried us to the tallest spire
Give me your mind on fire

You’re trying to
Keep your head on

Out to Sea
02:51
|
|||
|
It’s hard to see from the shoreline
The waves are crashing over my head
I am always hoping that sometime
You would be here instead
On the sandy beaches
My feet are sinking
With my arms I’m reaching
With my head I’m thinking
What drove you out to sea
I thought it was nice here with me
I guess I’ll never know anymore
Than the people on the shore
Now I am stuck in the water
High tide has come again
I can feel this getting harder
Than what this has been
What drove you out to sea
I thought it was nice here with me
I guess I’ll never know anymore
Than the people on the shore

Drifting Slowly
02:00
|
|||
|
What’s that in the sky
Drifting slowly but ever so high
Will it ever come down
And dance on the ground
Is it one of those things
That we will never ever see
[Matt Solo]
What’s that in the sky

Continuous Line
02:04
|
|||
|
Stuck in the middle of a continuous line
Ever expanding all of the time
No way to the end
You stop where you began
Stuck in the middle of a continuous line
Shoot the gap when the room splits before your eyes
Leave this place of trickery and of lies
This must be the start
Feel the beating of your heart
Shoot the gap when the room splits before your eyes
Now it’s triangles circles and squares
You’re here and then you’re there
It’s life and you’re alright
Go and find your light
Shoot the gap when the room splits before your eyes
Stuck in the middle of a continuous line

Rip Apart Me
04:28
|

|
You can cut up some fruit
And even some vegetables
You can slice up that bagel
But please don’t cut up me
But please don’t cut up me
But please don’t cut up me
But please don’t cut up me
I don’t like it when I bleed
I don’t like it when I bleed
So please don’t cut up me
So please don’t cut up me
You can mow down all the grass
And put the sticks in bags
You can chop down all the branches
But please don’t chop down me
But please don’t chop down me
But please don’t chop down me
But please don’t chop down me
I want to stand like the tallest tree
I want to stand like the tallest tree
So please don’t chop down me
So please don’t chop down me
You can tear up all the paper
If you glue it back together
You can rip apart the instructions
But please don’t rip apart me
But please don’t rip apart me
But please don’t rip apart me
But please don’t rip apart me
To be one piece is what I need
To be one piece is what I need
So please don’t rip apart me
So please don’t rip apart me

Shed
02:54
|
|||
|
I was getting high up in my shed
All the nice thoughts were rolling through my head
All the pretty sounds and lovely ideas
I don’t ever want to come down
I saw a flyer and asked
How do you do
She glided towards me and said
I should be asking you
Floating through the clouds
Over and over
Blue skies are the place for me
So many things I can choose to be
[Matt solo]

Cobblestones
08:22
|
|||
|
As the rain falls
It’s you and me
And on the walk home
There’s one thing to see
In the cobblestone nursery
Treading lightly or else we’ll be
Unknown
I know
Of a place where
we can go
We lost track of the time
Or maybe not at all
[Sawyer solo]
As my mind breaks
I look to the sea
Where you call home
But far from free
And those porchside melodies
Treading lightly or else we’ll be
Unknown
I know
Of a place where
We can go
We lost track of the time
Or maybe not all
[Instrumental break + Matt solo + instrumental break]
Your coffee is getting cold
And I’d hate to see those god damn cobblestones [x3]
Your coffee is getting cold
And I’d hate to see those fucking cobblestones
[Matt huge solo]
>Group vox:
Your coffee is getting cold
And I’d hate to see those god damn cobblestones
Your coffee is getting cold
And I’d hate to see those fucking cobblestones
Your coffee is getting cold
And I’d hate to see those god damn cobblestones
Your coffee is getting cold
And I’d hate to see those god damn cobblestones
[Band fades]
Your coffee is getting cold
And I’d hate to see those god damn cobblestones
Your coffee is getting cold now
And I’d hate to see those fucking cobblestones
