Too Easy 05:04
lyrics
youre making it too easy for me i used to struggle with a band aid like a four year old, whose learning too late i can see that guy u see when you’re smiling at me, like you know my next move just cause you tango with me, dont mean you’ve got my groove i tried to tell you i was the man but you never could understand (when you know youre right, youre only right) while you were sticking your head in the sand i went and found myself a plan i feel like a kid again the jaws, they cling to the floor i feel like I’m breaking in i could tell them anything i want youre making me wanna be free i used to beg you for the ball and chain but you were a painting and now youre just a stain i can hear the truth that you speak while I’m combing through the webs like gamgee in some strange safari in your mind i can bust into your home or sweep through the catacombs when you know youre right, youre only right id read thru a script that you write if you’d ever find the time i never want to go back to where i was going to i never want to be so easy just like i could tell them anything i want when it hurts so bad you're really on your own youre making it too easy for me youre supposed to stop my heart like poison but for now I’m glad i ain’t snoring for your love youre giving all your loving for free you should make them work for what they see just cause your a seed, don’t mean you’ll be a tree there could be a stampede you could find it hard to breathe no water on your leaves i feel like i’m always on your side i never wanna feel like you’re leaving me behind but i sometimes wanna feel the warmth of someones light i guess i get to feel one thing, once a life yeah, its not much inside but its too hard to hide

lyrics
this is the feel good hit of the indian summer i did my rain dance but now i’m fighting winter you can bow down to the snow if you like but me i ain’t goin’ without a fight i ain’t fucking with no parkas we’re gonna go where you’ll need a burka or we’ll go down to mexico ma ma ma ma i’m going down to mexico am i in the zone? did i give enough to get us out of our homes? i left my pic at home again thank god I’ve found a friend you must have missed a hoop, you could have broke the loop you could have got away, you could have found a safer place to play uh oh, I’ve done it again cryptic messages to twisted ends i know I’m better than i was back then but it don’t mean much to them but you wish you were home

lyrics
lindsay lindsay lindsay you could've gone to school but your mother knew that you couldn't be a slave lindsay lindsay lindsay you lived by the rule that nobody could rule but you lindsay. they don't love you for your faults, but i do lindsay you don't always have to crawl or stumble around lindsay lindsay lindsay you drove your own car drunk before any of your friends had their license lindsay lindsay lindsay you were the star and the sidekick in your very first breakthrough lindsay, you ain't a mean girl no more, you're just sloppy now lindsay, you ain't a whore, but they treat you like you are lindsay wont you hold me please me shake me take me then spew me out cause i cant take yah home to mom I tried looking out for you but its almost summer lindsay lindsay lindsay you've spun out of control I told your mother that id try to bring you home lindsay lindsay lindsay i brought you from the hole but now your mad cause your covers been blown lindsay I cant wait around no more, for your call lindsay you weren't always around, but now you are I tried looking out for you but its almost summer

Speaking Chinese 03:21
lyrics
i called you after midnight you know just what i need i don't want what is right i just want to spread my seed i need you in a bad way i like the way you move i miss the way your hips sway it there something i have to prove I know its been a long time and i could of called you before but now you're in your prime and im halfway in the door wont be long till im on the floor the world is getting colder and I don't want to hibernate we're only getting older you don't have to make me wait i miss anticipation but i already shook your trees you don't need to change the station i'm not speaking chinese I know its been a long time and i could of called you before but now you're in your prime and im halfway in the door wont be long till im on the floor you wanted the fireworks to stay in the sky you thought you were home but you were just high so you gave me a book you knew i would never read cause it would sit on my shelf until i cleaned and then i would think, yes, i would think of you and so i did and here we are

Free of this Place 03:11
lyrics
if there was ever a night to see you, it was tonight, sweet darkness but when i pressed my fingers to the strings i couldn’t find the sadness it was all i could do, to drown out all of the ringing it was all i could, just had to start singing i tried to find the chords, but the sunshine found me dragged me to a dream full of palm trees I’m free of this space yeah I’m always in my head, its the only safe place if there was ever a like to break me, it was that one, oh sweet darkness but when those reasons withered away, new ones sprouted all around it it was all i could do, ‘till love multiplied it was all i could do, and then i thought i could of flied to all them good people, the people who had tried to tell them all, ‘we’re all gonna survive’ I’m free of this space yeah I’m always in my head, its the only safe place dont you ask me what I’m thinking, when u making that face I’m free of this space I’m free of this cage yes I’m free of their ways i dont complicate my days you do what you do, and ill do what i do always cause I’m free of this space

Call Out My Number 06:22
lyrics
thats a funny kind of true with the webs all over you youre looking like youre breaking thru but you never wanna make a move so I’m caught up in your blue and the pictures always skewed i’m looking like a new recruit waiting for you to hum my tune call out my number if you remember where you thought you were when the vices called and it all was blurred out call out my number if you remember who you thought you were before the pot had start to stir you never came, i never heard it never occurred, it never occurred to you someone could take me away and fake me through the days someone could break away i’m getting used to the view your little plant, it grew its something that I’ve seen come true i wish that i could skip the queue but i said i’d see it through I’m still waiting on your debut someone has to talk to you and I’m not sure you need me to someone could take me away and fake me through the days someone could break away someone could break away someone could break me down until i am the one someone could break me down until i’m having fun i met you when i was selling dreams to your best friend next to you she didn’t pass, and i wished id snagged the two, the other one, not yet you whats a cold hearted brother to do? when you started humming, i stopped being a brother too starting thinking of sneaking on you now I’m sad and blue cause you didn’t think i was true well ha ha ha, i guess I’ve done it to me but you never know when its the truth you speak cause when you multiply a bunch of lies the truth might just give you a surprise i swear i thought i could have died am i suppose to be happy to be alive? i broke you when i was stealing dreams from my old friends just for you they didn’t last, but i got to play his axe alone on a stage for two straight through the amp of the one who had just been through you straight through the roof, i almost couldn’t see you i almost couldn’t see you i almost couldn’t feel you go i almost couldn’t read you i almost couldn’t see you all alone
