homeward bound with secrets to tell long time since we've needed help tell me true did I hurt you let me in we begin again tin foil hat with ghosts inside speak their love in suicide tell me true did I hurt you let me in let me in tell me true
2.
I wish it were xmas and I'm back at home when my mother was alive when the promise of family was a language we spoke and we thought there was enough time the world seems so simple when you haven't a clue and you act as if you were a god nothing can touch you safety is for losers what possibly could go wrong nothing ever feels so right like sleeping in your own bed surrounded by treasures you found that only you may possess not knowing, someday, this all will end so, your dreams are a message a warning to you: be gentle on the ice you've been here before and you know it's true son, it's not worth a second try because your skin is no measure to who you are we're all equally wild and our names become heralds to what we have done not even a mother can deny nothing ever feels so right like sleeping in your own bed surrounded by treasures you found that only you may possess not knowing, someday, this all will end and I'm looking for xmas and my way home I wish my mother was alive and the promise of family true and unbroken was more than a dream in my mind nothing ever feels so right like sleeping in your own bed surrounded by treasures you found that only you may possess not knowing, someday, this all will end
3.
Both Be Gone 02:02
there was something in your kiss something I never felt before a sudden freeze shaking knees you're tip toes across the floor I'm looking every hour since for a sign that you're needing me lonely heart jigsawed apart I'll help you find the missing piece I seen your light and I know it won't be long take a train speak your name and we'll both be gone we'll both be gone
4.
There was something Between your teeth That wouldn't let you sleep Such a shame it seems That pulls you into the deep And the light above Slowly dims into a dot Still, you call it a star Even though you know it's not This glass is so thin You could break it with a word You can tell me your plan And I could tell you where it hurts Every night we think We've got it figured out Then the sun shows up We're talking too loud
5.
take the phone off the hook speak to me face to face tell the world how we shook how we shook let our fears go to seed let us be gone by dawn call it luck or make believe there ghosts in our house there ghosts in our house ever stop taking blame wake up now to the light some day soon we will change we will change there ghosts in our house there ghosts in our house there ghosts in our house there ghosts in our house
6.
Whirlpool 03:06
when there's nothing to do just wait it out that's some good advice, then how does it help us now there's something bigger than us waking us up, every night if heaven is just a word why would we put up a fight I can't keep up this pace with you I can't keep up this pace with you as the west burns down I can see the smoke in the air with a rumble overhead ruins are beyond repair why would we try to wait it out, let's get away magic won't, dreaming can't help us escape I can't keep up this pace with you I can't keep up this pace with you when there's nothing to do just wait it out that's some good advice, then how does it help us now I can't keep up this pace with you I can't keep up this pace with you
7.
Down Deep 02:38
whatever you want you better speak up show em where you hurt but don't talk too much you might not like what you find when you dig down deep there's one way to heaven and one way back home if you lose your way listen to the aching in your bones you might not like what you find when you dig down deep it's dark down there sometimes is feels like I am losing my mind waiting for your signal waiting for a sign you might not like what you find when you dig down deep you might not like what you find
8.
Here We Are 03:27
there ain't nothing I don't know there ain't nothing I don't know from the stars in heart to the tickle in your toes there ain't nothing I don't know there ain't nothing I can't break there ain't nothing I can't break your nerves of steel won't take this weight there ain't nothing I can't break here we are once again telling it like it is here we are once again breaking the one thing we can't fix you're someone I still need you're someone I still need I quit my drinking and I'm still so mean you're someone I still need here we are once again telling it like it is here we are once again breaking the only thing we can't fix here's something you don't know here's something you don't know I quit keeping track of the punches we've thrown here's something you don't know there's no one else for me there's no one else for me I tried hard but I can't let it be there's no one else for me there's no one else for me
9.
A Trick 02:48
the only time I saw you you were talking to someone you knew and I wanted nothing but to be someone you were talking to but a gentleman he never stares please tell me how do I get out of here? for a moment I thought I thought this was a trick I'm being taken for a ride not even the devil would resist but a gentleman he never stares please tell me how do I get out of here? If you're lonely I'm lonely, too Say you're lonely I'm lonely overhead I can hear an angel laugh out loud and I'm starting to think maybe I should show myself out but a gentleman he never stares please tell me how do I get out of here? please tell me how do I make myself disappear?
10.
Miles Away 02:02
well it's all that I can do to keep me talking to you share a nighttime sky via satellite when we're miles away when we're miles away put your best face first and tell me, "do your worst" I'm stuck on your eyes via satellite when we're miles away we're never miles away we can share this time we can both get by and we can both get right via satellite when we're miles away we're never miles away
11.
seas trees piles of leaves where are you going next? rhyme time end of the line I can't catch my breath so please return please birds words hugging the curves I think I'm in love with you best guess the heart does the rest so please return please so please return please shells bells I won't tell your secrets are safe with me true soon the light of the moon betwixt and in between so please return please so please return please
12.
You 02:03
old invitations sitting on my desk never to be opened a tribute to the past you you you people never change seems like hearts are built to break strong enough to last but they rattle and they ache you you you I'm laying on my back staring at the bedroom light years and years since your wedding night you you you
13.
I love you, so what? Ain't nothing you can say Nothing can change my mind I love you, so what? True and cool, you couldn't tell us apart True and cool, now they're tearing us apart You can tell me, why not? Have I said too much? I'll be quiet from here on out You can tell me, why not? True and cool, you couldn't tell us apart True and cool, now they're tearing us apart It doesn't hurt, too much Only when I wake up When what I miss hits me like a train It doesn't hurt, too much True and cool, you're tearing me apart True and cool, you couldn't tell us apart
14.
Last Night 03:21
ast night was the last chance to get out all right, all rise to the question of doubt better than I could ever do whenever is never too soon old news is the new phase to ride back down, backwards the heart divides better than I could ever do whenever is never too soon a guarantee you don't have to sign unspoken terms just to keep it alive holding back is following suit raising up this world gone blue better than I could ever do when never is never too soon I don't believe you believe it's true this is better than I could do
15.
I will not miss you when you are gone It's been such a long wait these years we can't get back but tomorrow is another day I will not miss you I will not miss you when you are gone you lied about your money you lied about your brains what good is this lying gonna do you're gonna die anyway may you sleep no more may you always be awake and all the people you ignored someday you'll share the same fate I cannot miss you when you leave it's beyond my control turn the flag right side up let's rebuild our home I will not miss you I will not miss you when you are gone
16.
the way it is now it doesn't have to be you've got some free will you've got my sympathy nothing sticks to your ribs everybody's heard let me tell you again we're awful sorry you hurt the way it is is the way it is if it's true then it's true I can't deny I ain't bulletproof let's check each other's scars and celebrate your youth the way it is is the way it is how can you hold it together? we have only just begun there's talent in those bones nervous is as nervous does the way it is is the way it is
17.
you think it's so simple anyone can do it anyone could go out of their mind waves of static from the t.v. set and a kiss before you go to bed imagine you're floating tied to nothing your feet have become a cloud of smoke the wind is your sister you're borne by her breath and a kiss before you go to bed it's never that simple no matter the price you'll always be just, who you are for how we live and what we said and a kiss before we go to bed
18.
you weren't long for this world now the world longs for you to have your voice cut through the noise and the world longs for you killing time was just a joke and now the joke is on us I can see your face in the negative space yeah, the joke is on us how could it be the streetlights still change? how could it be you were here yesterday? how could it be how could it be no one gets to stay? you weren't long for this world and now this world longs for you it was your heart lit up this dark now this world longs for you now this world longs for you
19.
what is the reason to fall in love? pull down the walls let the barbed wire rust breathe in deep let it loose let someone see you for you is there a place for old flames to go return this life and become ghost a table for two still waiting for you assume it's a lie "I'll see you, tonight." suddenly it all makes sense suddenly we're all victims of circumstance go on home and get some sleep enjoy yourself it's later than you think breathe out flames no one will know you let someone see you for you
20.
Wake Up 02:25
wake up I think it is time to take up the slack on this line go overboard asking for more don't ask if you don't want to know be here for the embers last glow it's gotten late I can't complain for reasons we can't understand to break even was always the plan throw me a line I'll hold on this time
21.
raise your hands and talk to me it ain't so bad we can do anything when we were young we knew not a thing it was full speed ahead like we knew everything on better days I remember your name running lights your foot never on the brake where are you? did you make it out? innocence is nothing to complain about
22.
ever since we split you've toughened up found your heart covered it up for good that's no way to live hidden away beyond the crowd wishing to stay misunderstood I've been high a long time I've been high a long time don't tell me the truth lie to me it wasn't my fault we didn't agree on much if it isn't too much to ask you again read the letter I wrote when I said you were enough I've been high a long time I've been high a long time
23.
we said nothing about getting old why won't time go slow someone once was the first to go still asleep in the ice and snow help me leave this place new lines same old face I'll stop at nothing to get out when Faith gives way to Doubt do you think anyone hears? do you think anyone hears? hallelujah we're getting old new skin same old soul deep inside of you so much work left to do do you think anyone hears? do you think anyone hears?
24.
Restless 02:38
how many people can you kill as you hit the door? you're pulling levers, sight unseen a personal killing floor we're restless get out we're restless get out how many mountains can you crush in the name of defense? something built to rust a tribute to caged innocents we're restless get out we're restless get out there is no pardon big enough when time and truth will be the judge how many ways can you lie before your teeth fall out? and all your people they go broke while you choke with their money in your mouth we're restless get out we're restless get out get out get out get out
25.
after all this, you were shooting off your mouth saying that it's true doesn't make it true there ain't nothing as lonesome as a lie made small by the burden of proof one day you'll know everybody knew you'll be telling me 'cause I couldn't tell you what is real when you never learned to see as the song goes everything is free you believe your fingers have that old Midas touch but gold alone ain't worth too much one day you'll know everybody knew you'll be telling me 'cause I couldn't tell you wear out your welcome let everyone stare the new you the wink, the nod, the prayer if it's happenstance what could you do it's good to be alive anywhere one day you'll know everybody knew you'll be telling me 'cause I couldn't tell you
26.
Run Around 03:32
leave the tv on it helps me sleep turn the volume up I'm asking please tell me who I am don't leave me naked cover me up tonight leave me shaken bite your lip don't make a sound we've been living a run around back light your alibi ain't no one seeing clear from a month to a day to a week from a year bite your lip don't make a sound we've been living a run around bite your lip don't make a sound we've been living a run around are you still there? you're just a ghost on the line telling me good luck from the other side bite your lip don't make a sound we've been living a run around
27.
Next Year 03:55
before we get out of here I'll see you next year please keep me in mind when you sing auld lang syne if I'm somewhere else and you are all by yourself I'll lift a drink to you and make a toast to the moon there's nothing we can't change when we meet face to face we see each other's eyes and make a shared sacrifice cause everything we own is everything we owe until everything we've earned equals all we deserve before we get out of here I'll see you next year I'll keep you in mind while I'm singing auld lang syne if you're somewhere else and you are by yourself lift a drink to me toast the stars and the sea
28.
Spilled 03:24
tell me what you'll do I can barely read your mind let me guess, "too soon?" it's gonna be a long while until we spill everything take apart these words hold 'em up to the sun pay me what I'm worth and you can kiss anyone until we spill everything we'll have to wait this out if we never talk again that's nobody's fault take a lost weekend re-learn how to walk until we spill everything we'll have to wait this out we'll have to wait this out and it's such a small world that keeps us attached by a string of pearls and a nod to the past until we spill everything we'll have to wait this out we'll have to wait this out
29.
Slipped 02:35
what are we doing with each other? a witness to each other's fall how can we say this didn't happen? as our hearts stutter and stall talk about me to your brother tell him I'm okay you're keeping me out of trouble I'm giving you a place to stay where are we going? where? where are we going? where? I slipped into your bedroom I never found my way out I listened for your foot steps I'm forever waiting around where are we going? where? where are we going? where?
30.
Perfect Past 02:31
tear yourself away from this I checked twice, we didn't make the list light a candle for those weary bones we'll catch up later on the telephone someone tell me what it means you're always sleeping and you never dream I put a price on being true so high no one followed through now I'm back to, "what's the point?" bitter drinks and copper coins someone tell me what it's for you're always talking with your eyes on the door a pattern rich with dividing lines you measured once and you still cut twice imagine if we could take it back here's a toast to the perfect past someone tell me what it does other than smoke, spark, and buzz
31.
It Is Done 02:42
it is done it is done it is done your magic no longer works on me I've arrived at a place where I believe your magic no longer works on me the words that were once a spell disappeared into thin air they no longer compel the words that were once a spell that touch that laid me low paralyzed my heart it's now turning cold that touch that laid me low your magic no longer works on me I've arrived at a place where I believe your magic no longer works on me it is done it is done it is done credits
32.
The Only One 03:34
it wouldn't take too much you could do it with ease it's never too late to do the right thing to roll up your sleeves to close your eyes to breathe in deep to compromise you're not the only one, alive you're not the only one, alive who was it who hurt you? who turned your blood to salt? left yo lonely in the dark with a rage that can only be taught and everything that you see no need to ask to touch and to apologize is to self destruct you're not the only one, alive you're not the only one, alive with the root buried that deep you think you will stand your ground but there's a fire coming and no safety in that crowd it wouldn't take too much you could do it with ease it's never too late to do the right thing
33.
you back so soon it's like you never left and you're gonna tell me what happens next I'm sorry that I missed you sorry I missed you I'm sorry I missed you sorry I missed you and the days stretch into nights are you getting back in bed with me, or what? morning is almost here it's on the tip of my tongue I'm sorry I missed you sorry I missed you sorry I missed you I'm sorry I missed you sorry I missed you sorry I missed you I'm sorry I missed you sorry I missed you sorry I missed you are you sorry you missed me?
34.
Upfront 03:01
give me a chance I won't tell you nothing but the truth life moves fast when you wake up old your skins gone loose how is it feeling with all that weight you carry by yourself someone I knew told me, "everyone has a price." I paid upfront now you won't look me in the eyes how is it feeling with all that weight you carry by yourself remind me again why we try and how we win we all fade away holding out for holding hands how is it feeling with all that weight you carry by yourself how is it feeling with all that weight you carry by yourself
35.
why you wasting my time when there ain't much left? when you're getting short everything moves quick if you know me, you know I'll tell you everything if you know me, I will tell you everything where I hid the gold that was our first kiss why I called it off a lover dismissed you've got some nerve telling me I don't understand that half of this hour glass is running out of sand if you know me, you know I'll tell you everything if you know me, I will tell you everything it's only special if someone catches it on tape and if no one hears it it's as good as erased if you know me, you know I'll tell you everything if you know me, I will tell you everything
36.
or maybe it'll be alright there's a dozen other ways to feel than taken by surprise by the last card revealed putting up with your pride I'm using you as a shield and someday, maybe you could tell me what it's like on the other side truly, heaven has no gates everyone's on time everywhere is open late and someday, maybe you could tell me what it's like to be free could you walk it back with me show me the steps a path back home I will kiss you in the present tense and someday, maybe you could tell me what it's like to be free
