::lyrics::where i’ve been has faded
the city's just a patient (lyrics by jeremy)
so i'm writing you again but these words won't sound the same
i went to see my favorite band now everything has changed
the ghosts still oam the halls but a new girl won my heart
there's a map up in her loft that shows me where i'm going
the city's just a patient on life support and pain pills
i don't think she's gonna make it cause where i've been has faded
the city's just a patient on life support and pain pills
i don't think she's gonna make it cause on that map she's fading
so you'll run away again cause these songs don't sound the same
you said that i'm your only friend i guess all of that has changed
the ghosts still roam the halls while the coffee warms my heart
there's a map up on your wall but you don't know where you're going
the city's just a patient on life support and pain pills
i don't think she's gonna make it cause where i've been has faded
the city's just a patient on life support and pain pills
i don't think she's gonna make it cause on that map she's fading
42 sugar (lyrics by george)
i recognize a pattern starting to develop
statistics have never meant much, but ut as i'm getting older
shit is adding up
i've spent the last 18 hours guitaring you from my blood
my veins are thin and tired, but i'm starting to recover
or so i tell myself
the suitcases beneath your eyes are almost as big
as the one i'm packing clothes in tonight
they're almost as dark as well
i hope you get much better, and that it makes you happy
and that you play the things you can never say to me
regardless of what they might be
i could've loved you in ways normal people only read about
and men like me come around once in a lifetime
or so statistics suggest
cynical (lyrics by jeremy)
if we could have coffee, if we could have drinks
if we could tell each other what we really think
in languages we both speak
the differences would fail to compete
cause you are beautiful
even though i'm so cynical, i believe in you
i think you need more than you think you do
and i would love to give it all to you
if we could be naked like the day we were born
then we could hold each other and know what we're here for
the differences would fail to compete
cause you are beautiful
even though i've grown so cynical i believe in you
maybe more than you do
i think you need more than you think you do
i would give everything to give it all to you
to wake up next to you
cause i love you
i love you
hidden treasure (lyrics by george)
sometimes i silence the child on my ankle
he screams when i shatter the mirrors
broken glass in our feet, we move on
forever searching for hidden treasure
if you could break the child from your ankle
you could lie down where the pieces are missing
find the courage to abandon the puzzle you've been constructing always
forever searching for hidden treasure
married (a single object of uncomplimentary parts) (lyrics by jeremy)
i'm in no mood to argue but all we do is fight
i can't seem to say a word that's capable
of being heard as anything but an insult, an injury
causing you nothing but frustration and misery
so let's get married
love your friends but tie yourselves to you enemies
we can start a family
so there's more people to say i'm sorry
halston (lyrics by george)
i put on your cologne today
now i'm packing all the others away
i only want to smell like you
as fucked up as you are
for every empty bottle, for each internal scar
there's a million vibrations from your loving voice
that flow like the ocean spilling over sandbars
drenched in great wisdom you could never apply
full of contradictions, I'm giving them a try
and i believe we're closer than two people should ever be
because eventually one of us leaves
i put on your cologne today
now i'm packing all the others away
i only want to smell like you
reach out (lyrics by george)
open road
making turns one at a time
an unclear destination starts to feel like a crime
in this life where the kids don’t play outside
they can’t find themselves to hide or seek
the adventure in the ride
palm to palm
laughing as the train’s derail
off the shore
the wind projects our sail….
on this night, a roaming beacon light
glides across your ash-white skin
like a devoted acolyte
i erase (lyrics by jeremy)
been thinkin 'bout the baby that we might have had
if i didn't leave you like that
on that floor in berlin to rush back to her arms again
in my american state where there's always free ketchup
to cover the taste of the endless disgraces
here in our bed i could not escape
my own reflection in your tears
but there in her bed i could learn to fake
the promises meant for your ears
been thinkin 'bout the friendships that we might have saved
if we weren't both so filled with pain
in the back of the nissan we should have kept our clothes on for him
and when he didn't come home we both should have known
that floor in berlin has caught up to us once again
here in our bed i could not escape
my own reflection in your tears
but there in her bed i could learn to fake
the promises meant for your ears
choose a weapon but don't lie again
laying on your stomach takes the heat away between your legs
the second lesson and i'll die again
captured on my stomach i erase
