01GLORY
Lookin' for glory boys
In a distant summer
Once upon a dream lingers
my fleeting kiss lips sweeter to miss
Sing freedom in seven days,
Sink deeper through the maze
The river ran out of Eden
and wind swept through this bay
I can believe
I can believe in miracles again
If you would fire me from this part
If you'd retire me from your heart
I can believe
I can believe in miracles again
If you would fire me from this part
If you'd retire me from your heart
Ah – I don't know if I believe in hindsight … anymore
02give a little grace
I'm trying to love you
The way that you need
The way that my therapist says it should be
You know all my secrets,
There's nothing we can do
Maybe that's no good for me and you
You got the weight of the world on your shoulders
And the rain falling down on you
If you believe our dreams can be?
Please, give a little grace to me
I know I'm not perfect
I've said it out loud
Or is it tenderness that breaks my future down?
I'm tired of waiting
Of hoping you'll forgive
So our past might break away let present live
You got the weight of the world on your shoulders
And the rain falling down on you
If you believe our dreams can be?
Please, give a little grace to me
And I'm undeserving
Of anymore of your time
And I can't promise that I'll change
I'm undeserving
Of anymore of your time
But I promise to be better
Give a little grace to me
You got the weight of the world on your shoulders
And the rain falling down on you
If you believe our dreams can be?
Please, give a little grace to me
Please, give a little grace to me
Please, give a little grace to me
03Year with no April
I'm coming for you - only if you want me to
And I'll keep you in check
Is that what you suspect?
It was the year, the year with no April.
It was the year, the year with nowhere to go.
Baby I'm a saint
Forgetting my own name
I'm reaching out
Oh to see if you're about
It was the year, the year with no April
It was the year, the year with no where to go
I know that I'm a fool to be trying this with you
I know that you're a saint - since you're driving me insane
It was the year, the year with no April
It was the year, the year with no where to go
Are you on the spectrum they ask?
Well, I am not equipped to answer
04il(e)lusive
I am riveted to my TV set
Oh this blue light's a drug
and now I'm sleepless in a dream state
I'm dripping down like coffee
I'm grinding teeth like beans
Is now the time to stop and see the nature of the beast?
Oh you fuck me up for days
And yet it's you I crave
To satiate the beast
I've digested every title on my bookshelf
I can't peel the covers open
I don't know what to do with my self
And I am crying
I'm falling down the well
I'm Alice but my rabbit hole is hell
I'm pleading on my knees trying to understand the nature of the beast…
Oh you fuck me up for days
And yet it's you I crave
To satiate the beast
Just send me the fuck to bed.
05exhausted
I am absolutely utterly exhausted
Bereft and distorted
You said that I say yes too many times for self-importance
Well fuck me, that's morbid
If I take a breath you will know
If I stay a little longer here you'll go
Oh
Will you love me
If I stop trying so hard?
06White Lies
Baby just lie to me
Don't waste the truth if I'm erased.
I can fake a smile, see?
If you want the look or like the shape
Cos I've been wandering through your mind.
I don't wanna know.
Don't wanna be myself
If you want someone else
Don't have to feel this shame
Begging for my name
Nothing that you see
Has to be the final me
Give me one last try
A taste of your white lies
I played the perfect fool for you
A greater liar lies in me
No need to be cruel to those who take it
Who can make it work for free
Cos I've been wandering through your mind
And you want me to go
Don't wanna be myself
If you want someone else
Don't have to feel this shame
Begging for my name
Nothing that you see
Has to be the final me
Give me one last try
A taste of your white lies
God only knows
The secrets you hold
You set them in stone
And tell me it's gold.
Just spare me the truth.
Don't wanna be myself
If you want someone else
Don't have to feel this shame
Begging for my name
Cos nothin' that you see
Has to be the final me
Give me one last try
Just a taste of your white lies.
07Tuesday Night
I haven't moved in a couple days
And how my head feels has me begging sleep to stay
I feel your fingers through my hair
Planting love deep when the fractures linger there.
Here we are on a Tuesday night
And I'm not lying when I say
I can't believe that you're here by my side
Here we are on a Tuesday night
Did I say I was sorry?
Baby I'm sorry.
I don't know how you can look my way
How the little good I do
Outweighs all the shit I leave on display
And if I'm honest I stopped trying
But somehow you believe that all this dies and we're left smiling
Here we are on a Tuesday night
And I'm not lying when I say
I can't believe that you're here by my side
Here we are on a Tuesday night
Did I say I was sorry
Cos baby I'm sorry
And then you crawl down to meet me
In the silence curled up quiet like it's easy
And here we are on a Tuesday night
And I'm not lying when I say
I can't believe that you're here by my side
And here we are on a Tuesday night
Did I say I was sorry?
I'm so fuckin' sorry.
Did I say I was grateful? (I'm) so god damn grateful.
Did I say I was happy? I think this is happy.
Did I say I want more of this? More of this?
Did I say I want more of this? More of this? More of this - I just want more of this
Did I say I want more of this? More of this - more of this - more of…
I want more, do you want more? More of this? More of this?
Baby I just want to have more of this
Tell me you want more too? Please god yes you do.
I just wanna have more of this. More of this…
This is a happy song.
If you didn't know.
