Interventions and Lullabies
On Your Porch
I was on your porch
the smoke sank into my skin
so I came inside
to be with you
We talked all night
about everything could imagine
cuz' come the morning I'll be gone
And thats,
when our eyes start to close
I turn to you and I let you know
that I love you.
My dad was sick
my mom she cared for him
her love,
it nursed him back to life
and me i ran,
I couldnt even look at him
for fear I'd have to say goodbye
And thats,
when i start to leave
he grabs me by the shoulder
and he tells me
whats left to lose?
you've done enough
and if you fail
well then u fail
but not to us
cuz these last 3 years,
i know they've been hard
but now its time get out of the desert and into the sun
Even if its alone...
so now here I sit
in a hotel life of sunsest
my thoughts bounce off
the sence guitar
and thats the way its been
ever since, we were kids
but now,
now we've got something to prove
and I, I can see there eyes
but tell me something,
can they see mine?
cuz wats left to lose?
ive done enough
and if I fail
then I fail,
but i gave it a shot
and these last 3 years,
i know they've been hard
but now its time to get out of the desert and into the sun
even if its alone...(x3)
I was on your porch last night
the smoke, it sink into my skin
2.Sore Thumb
Forgive me you cut out again, it seems so easy just to blame the
reception but theres something wrong and i dont know why
Why you, you never say goodbye so please just leave, you dont
mean that much to me you keep the ring, ill take those
Saturdays in bed cause i know you need them as for me its
nothing new just another two years i wish we'd always wake up
new,
Refreshed and born again with nothing left to lose but we dream
too much and who needs a crutch pull off the bandage, theres
No wound so please just leave, you dont mean that much to me
give back the ring, keep all those summers with your friends
Cause you know you need them as for me its nothing new just
another two years that im here losing sleep your sore thumb,
Your best defense is miles from home oh and it reads like a
letter, with the words all broken erased them with a razorblade
Cause youre gone i was lost then i found you but im breaking
down now that
3.Tune Out
Its your bed, so please choose a side ill take the one closest
to the door and you start to speak the words that try to
Justify do far more wrong then anything you do so grab the coat,
the keys, the tension speaks but we're singing it
Ill tap the break while you crack the window the smell of smoke
is making my lungs explode the 51 is backed up and too slow
Lets tune out by turning on the radio and this town is dead weve
been caught in these sheets way too long lets just see whos
Up on this screen no one i know is more depressing then me or
should i say the two of us cause after all we're all weve got
And tension speaks but we're singing it
And oh my love youre all i need backed behind a frequency they
played this
Song an hour ago lets tune out by turning on the radio havent we
heard this song about a thousand times before oh well after
Awhile it all sounds the same i guess its better then silence
and better then shame
4.The First Single
I can't stand to think about
A heart so big it hurts like hell
Oh my god I gave my best
Before three whole years to end like this
Well do u wanna fall apart
I cant stop if u cant start
Do u wanna fall apart
Well I could if u cant try to fix wht ive undone
And I hate wht ive become
You knoe me
Oh u think u do
U just don't seem to see
Ive been waiting all this time to be
Sumthing I cant define
So lets cause a scene
Clap our hands and stomp our feet
Or sumthing, yeah sumthing
Ive just gotta get myself over me
I could stand to do w/out
All the ppl ive left behind
Whts the point in going around
When its straight line baby
Straight line down
So lets make a list of who we need
Its not much if ne thing
Lets make a list of who we need
And we'll throw it away
cuz we don't need ne one
No we don't need ne one.
You knoe me
Oh u think u do
U just don't seem to see
Ive been waiting all this time to be
Sumthing I cant define
So lets cause a scene
Clap our hands and stomp our feet
Or sumthing, yeah sumthing
Ive just gotta get myself over me
And I hate wht ive become
Ya knoe the night life is just not for me
Cuz all u rly need are a few good friend
Don't wanna go out and be on my own
Another start of sumthing I cant stand
You leave for the city
Well count me out
Cuz all this time is wasted on
Everything ive done
You knoe me
Oh u think u do
U just don't seem to see
Ive been waiting all this time to be
Sumthing I cant define
So lets cause a scene
Clap our hands and stomp our feet
Or sumthing, yeah sumthing
Ive just gotta get myself over me
You knoe me
Oh u think u do
U just don't seem to see
Ive been waiting all this time to be
Sumthing I cant define
So lets cause a scene
Clap our hands and stomp our feet
Or sumthing, yeah sumthing
Ive just gotta get myself over me
