Unsettled 00:48
someday, someone will look at you look at you into your eyes and say, "hey babe, let's get hitched!" they'll give you a diamond ring and a big house all the things that you're supposed to dream about but, you won't want em at all you'll look right back and say, "I'm not the marrying kind. I just want to be alone. I don't want to wake up to the same face every morn."
2.
Wild 00:51
in my wildest imagination, you're there and I finally do what I think. cause yeah, I meant those kisses, all those kisses on your hands. oh yeah I finally do what I think. cause there's those games I played and you strayed away and there's that time I died and how you saved the day and I don't know what I'm doing here, but I choose you cause there are things that belong to you and me
3.
SHOOT DARN 00:53
don't want to tell you bout my night don't want to tell you bout my life don't want to tell you bout the last week I saw you cause i'm the crap one here, yeah, I'm the bad one here it's me don't want to hear about your heart don't want to hear about your ache don't want to hear about the last phone call and how he's the only one, cause he's not the only for you (drop down, turn around, put on your crown)
4.
stayed in my room till my walls turned blue turned my face to the sky, turned my eyes to the moon tell me, how do we begin and does this all end tell me, how do we begin and does this all end
5.
6th period 00:30
the day we stood on a bluff on the puget sound, the sky opened up and the dark clouds came down fish in the sky and the sun went way down deep we stood close to the edge but not too close it was too steep
6.
Lumber 00:26
will you hold my hand when the deck comes down? can I grab your arms until the lumber hits the ground? will you hold me up as it all comes down? will you hold me up as it all comes down?
7.
Grounded 01:28
I'm writing off all those things caught between though I'm spreading my skin thin, I won't be lost again I am false and I am fickle, but, I am grounded. And when you look for me at turning of the year, I'll be gone A love that started far below the clouds But, those clouds, they seem to dry if we reach up hard and try There is light, there is warmth and there is comfort And when you look to me, oh, it isn't hard to see, There is love. I feel loved.
8.
Hibernate 00:54
oh, we're not bears, so let's not hibernate. no, we don't live in some big old cave with no light. and if we stay in the dark and sleep away the day, no, I won't see you in the morning cause there won't be any morning if we hibernate
9.
I've been thinking and holding this feeling of walking down the stairs thinkin there's one more step. my feet feel the way hopin soon there'll be ground, but, when that last step's not there, I might tumble and drown. the things that we expect are those we often neglect
10.
Petite 00:36
how can I turn and say to you that my life is a bore? I turn to you and say it straight, "I am so damn bored." I am standing up and I will not be small I am standing up and at last I will be tall
11.
well, what did I expect? I won't be waiting silently. and, and if you ask me where, where I thought I'd be It would not be here. You wouldn't be my dear I'd sail far away You'd never see the day
12.
Smallheart 00:44
suppose I should stop thinking now about the sad things that break my small heart it's not small, it's too big, it's so damn big
13.
Sky Ceiling 00:45
sometimes the sky is too big a ceiling we reach till we cry, we reach for no reason
14.
girlfriends 01:28
I want to see my girlfriends
15.
Ted Mosby 01:00
somehow, I got in my head, after a certain point, if I don't get out of bed, I don't have to pick up the phone, I won't answer the door, even though I'm home I'll just roll back, back to sleep It won't matter if I get back on my feet.
16.
I don't know where I've gone in my head It's like I've got a hundred rooms, it's like I've got a hundred beds but, I'm still sleeping on my floor and when i look outside my door It's like I've never seen this place, but, I've still been here before from a distant shore now I'm tracing the tracks I've gone down running circles in my head, thinking 'bout what I've said who have I been and who am I yet? are there things to hold and things to forget? things to regret? there are facts I have known all my life like, someday I will leave, but, I'm sure to come back cause I'll miss those trees and all the dark green leaves all the moss at my feet and the deep dark green breeze bringing me down on my knees giving me something to believe
17.
if you miss someone, I think you should tell em about the way you miss them about the way you think of them when you're on your own no one to call home cause don't everyone want to be missed?
18.
14th ave NE 00:50
no, they don't spray for bugs down at the old cemetery no I don't pray for the dead, no need to spray the dead cause we went down to see our family names written on all those rocks I got bug bites on my arms, I got em through my socks. And it's a strange damn thing to see your name written on all those graves Cause though I'm still too proud to pray, I'm not all that brave.
19.
i used to imagine the day I'd live on a lake surrounded by trees and moss and leaves I'd swim everyday but, over time the waters changed my mind my thoughts seemed to warp and bend with time i'd spend the days just floatin on my back alone on my lake I'd name the clouds and moons and count the stars I'd even count the sun but, over time, I'd start to float into space in my time alone, I'd start to lose my grace
20.
Wind Shape 00:39
the other night, i saw the shape of the wind a dark cloud of birds moved across the fadin blue sky and nothing seemed to matter anymore not glimpses through the fence or sneakin out the back door
21.
Barre Chords 00:37
i say i should learn some new songs cause these old words, they don't make sense no more nothing feels like before and nothing feels like right now anymore
22.
they say that sea air is good for your lungs they say that the waves here will take your problems far away nothing seems to go away
23.
leather bag 01:28
I always wondered if I lived in a place where the sun shone year-round, would I grow tired of the rays? would I hide under a rock build a house made of shade? would my skin just off and leave in rebellion, would it peel from my body? would I turn into a leather bag a pair of shoes or even a nice belt? think I would need a cloud vacation, I think I would long for the dark skies and days inside. think I would need a cloud vacation, I think I would long for the dark skies and days inside.
24.
52 00:48
would it be too much if I called you up on the telephone? what would I say if you answered would I freeze or would I say hello? say hello
25.
Filled In 00:14
open up and let the love just fill you in
26.
Arm Rest 00:25
I think I'm writing a love song and I know that it tastes wrong just to take it all in you're just a part of my skin, skin, skin
27.
mood ring 00:45
I'm trying hard not to relive the past again I'm trying hard not to become the girl I've been I fall asleep in my mood ring and when I wake, I don't feel a thing I'm still playing the same old games I'm still playing the same old games.
28.
well, it's spring again and I can't help but compare how I'm 100% better than last spring
29.
53 00:34
how can it be that you're still hurting my feelings? how can it be, cause it's been 200 years since you've been here? since you been here...
