2.	Verbal Chess 03:22	lyrics	buy track
Growing up and closing in Accepting the good things I could've been Hear the back mask, everyone is under attack If you're feeling sick, keep listening Tear those demons off your back, again Tired out from all your travelling The walk to the bathroom and back to the bed again Sing the same verse over and over again Singing of how you can't ever win Matches played of verbal chess, in your head Lose your head again When you can't ever win Demon win again Close my heart I'm out of this Verbal chess again Shut my mouth I ain't ever goona win Stay in bed YOU'RE DEAD!
3.	Slow Emotion 03:16	lyrics	buy track
I am going to need a hideaway, after all the things that I'm about to say to you You, living a life of dissonance I am not an actor, split my face in two Slow emotion, turn my head around Dry erasing myself I feel the notion, you feel like you're in hell Slow emotion is eating up my time with you Drink, what you poured yourself to drink The only tender at the bar is you You think, just what you're told to think Letting everyone inside your head but you Slow emotion, turn my head around Dry erasing myself I feel the notion, you feel like you're in hell Slow emotion is eating up my time with you
4.	Judas Iscariot 07:35	lyrics	buy track
Say goodbye and say so long You broke my heart and did me wrong my friend I hope to never see you again Don't say the things that make me smile, I wrote the song that birthed your child and then... And then you killed me Oh its a perfect story, wrap me up in your self glory yeah... Judas Iscariot Say goodnight the crowd is gone You broke their hearts when you pulled out my song Why would you do that to them? Don't say the thing that make me smile, I wrote the song that birthed your child and then... And then you killed me Oh its a perfect story, wrap me up in your self glory yeah... Judas Iscariot Wonder who the next one will be to fall victim to your falsified imagery Judas Iscariot Your crimes are evident Falsified, falsified imagery Hurry up the tide is low, I'm moving fast to miss the undertow Don't let it happen again Don't say the things that make me smile, I wrote the song that birthed your child and then... And then you killed me Oh its a perfect story, wrap me up in your self glory yeah... Judas Iscariot Wonder who the next one will be to fall victim to your falsified imagery Judas Iscariot Your crimes are evident Falsified, falsified imagery
5.	Broken Teeth 04:19	lyrics	buy track
I aint ever been better, I tell myself in times like these I feel glad in lofty dreams that aren't as harsh as reality So long tortured soul, hello broken teeth I'm a little less than before A little less than half of me I saw the devil by the door, he had a brown bottle of whiskey He knew where I was that night when you lost my spare set of keys So long tortured soul, hello broken teeth I'm a little less than before A little less than half of me I saw Jesus slumbering, beneath that boat on a raging sea He heard me when I called his name If I dont listen, he cant teach So long tortured soul, hello broken teeth I'm a little less than before A little less than half of me
6.	Comin' Round 04:05	lyrics	buy track
I'm comin' round I'm comin' out of the clouds tonight I found a light You opened up my starry night Sift through broken glass, wait for time to pass Pictures of radios help me get through the past Out of darkness, out of darkness, out of darkness I found light Sing through the night Play songs of freedom, play songs for life Dance with all your friends Dance till the morning, till the music ends Sift through broken glass, wait for time to pass Pictures of radios help me get through the past The fallen autumn leaves help me see through the trees Out of darkness, out of darkness, out of darkness I found light I'm comin' round, I'm comin' round, I'm comin' round, I'm comin' round, I'm comin' round, I'm comin' round, I!!!!!

8.	Red Convertible 05:24	lyrics	buy track
I drove a long way in my truck today I turned up the radio I rolled the window down, I zipped up my coat It's getting colder now Every time I saw a red convertible I thought it's not possible Is it you I see in the mirror behind me? When the morning came, I woke up slowly The sun was beating down on me I looked around the house, It was unfamiliar I guess its time to leave When I walked out, I saw a red convertible I thought its not possible Is it you I see in the mirror behind me? Singled out, my broken mirror I see Running your red light skyline Oh singled out, in my broken mirror I see Running your red light skyline I drove a long way in my truck today I turned up the radio
9.	The Walking Dead 02:16	lyrics	buy track
Going way downtown, my feet in my shoes Broken leaf springs and empty pockets, I'm singing the blues Got a cigarette, my eyes out of my head Can't even daydream when you're the walking dead Busted at the end of the summertime Standing at the very end of the breadline
10.	Skylight 06:15	lyrics	buy track
A song worth singing by yourself ain't worth anything to anyone else but you You drink alone at your house, guess that's what you're about You're living the dream Just what I see... A trickled drone in your ear, not what you're hearing Go to the bathroom Write the words in your head Collect your check and don't leave anything unsaid You're a skylight You're a window Late at night the star I see Lord knows I'm with you in the bathroom, singing to myself Oh, dangerous dreams, it ain't worth sleeping, no... Your pride walks on, your pride is that strong You're a skylight You're a window Late at night the star I see A song worth singing by yourself ain't worth anything to anyone else but you
11.	Southern Moon 13:09	lyrics	buy track
Southern moon went sinking, your slow eyes never crossed my mind Breathing bourbon on the windshield the objects in your view multiplied There are blood stains on my fingers from cleaning the cuts around your eyes You drive too long against the odds You're running out of time before you die, before you die Take it slow You're not even old Don't go home On your twisted unlit road I ain't ready to go home Don't take me along I will live outside my will but I surely ain't goona lie Don't you drink your poison drink and choose for me when I die I don't ride along your currents, your loneliness do testify Oh you drive too long against the odds, you're running out of time before you die, before you die Take it slow You're not even old Don't go home On your twisted unlit road I ain't ready to go home Don't take me along Take it slow You're not even old Don't go home On your twisted unlit road I ain't ready to go home Don't take me along
