Give me a chance
i know im silly but i can also dance
if that counts for anything I’d like to use it
I dont mean to ignore but i'm goofy
ya know i'm doing anything that i can to make you smile and wanna hold my hand
and I know I say it in every single song
but I hoping when you start to listen you’ll singing along
I know something you don’t
do you wanna play on my boat?
I’m sorry you know I like to lie
I don’t have a boat but maybe we can fly
If you want yeah that’s up to you
because I don’t have a way to do that either
but its fine its so fun in the meantime
I have jokes if you wanna hear one
if you wanna hear one
if you wanna hear one
I have a few I can pull from
If you wanna hear one
I have a few up my sleeve
please don’t be dense
its not a secret I’m desperate for a chance
and you’re acting so confused
well I’m asking is it bad that I’m mad that you’re elusive ohhh ohh
I’m rethinking everything
I have half a mind to give up yeah I quit
then I remember when I see you smile
and how it’s only when I come around
I have so much up my sleeve
I’m waiting in the meantime
for you my baby
I can drive you crazy
just will you let me
I wanna see if you love me fine
if you don’t I’ll understand it's all part of the plan
I got a few up my sleeve
if you really wanna see
I can tell you lots of jokes
I can make you smile and more

I get by on my own
I get high to get away from me
Now where did you come from?
How did you find me?
I was doin’ well
Now I’m flyin’
Put me down girl
I’m scared of flyin’
When I was here before
I hit the ground cryin’
So I’ve gotta go on now
I’ve gotta go on
I get high to get away from me
You’re gonna try
To make space for me
But I don’t fit there
It’s just the shape of me
You’re gonna get tired
And then get angry
It’s not your fault, girl
‘Cuz I’ve got these problems
You could make love to me
But you’ll never solve ‘em
So I’ve gotta go on now
I’ve gotta go on

Been in love since I met Alex in the second grade
Wasn’t sure until today she even knew my name
She said ‘give me a hand, it’s time to become a man”
Now we’re losing light
Laying by her side
Now we’re turning into sand
I hope we make it to the weekend
Layin’ out with all our good friends
We’ll never tie up all our loose ends
We’ll never make it to the weekend, yeah
Couldn’t make it to the weekend
Couldn’t get out of class
Man I’d die for a weekend
Got a bad hall pass
Yeah, oh no…
He took his shot and asked Alex if she’d like to go home
She said take my picture, shoot my image yeah ok now I’m gone
I’m having trouble trying to listen so I run instead
He told me that my pencil isn’t really made of lead
I’m dead…
I’ll never make it to the weekend
The weekend
Gonna tie up all my loose ends
Never make it to the weekend, yeah
Couldn’t make it to the weekend
Couldn’t get out of class
Man I’d die for a weekend
Got a bad hall pass
Yeah, oh no…

We painted rings around our eyes
So now we’re paying for it
They stole your manuscript we meant to burn though they adore it
A story you once penned then swore you’d never lose again
In lieu of fickle friends who at the ending
Turned to fiction
In Sunday clothes
Phoning in the skit
Life is a band
You’d like to quit
Living in prose
For the glam and the grit
A page in your hand
A wink in your wit
I played a shaman on the roof
So now they’re running for it
Until you drink an ounce of truth
What you see
You’ll ignore it
In Sunday clothes
Phoning in the skit
Life is a band
You’d like to quit
Stuck in a verse and you can’t score
Dance in a thought of wanting more
Toast to yourself, ruin a play
Until next year becomes today
Run to a dream you’re waking from
A horror sings, a tempest strums
Toast to yourself, ruin a play
Until next year becomes today
Tomorrow sings you Sonneteer
And you’ll be ready for it
All of the dark you now call dear
And the good, fix what tore it
In Sunday clothes
Phoning in the skit
Life is a band
You’d like to quit
Living in prose
For the glam and the grit
A page in your hand
A wink in your wit
Living in prose
For the glam and the grit
A page in your hand
A wink in your wit

Another cigarette on my front porch
Cicadas in the backyard
Trying to try not too hard
To get away from home
Pretty people on the TV
They look so good in HD
Why am I so lonely
Feeling so at home?
I'm ready for the spotlight
Burn me til I'm hot white
I'll never get it all right
But at least they'll know my name
Be the person that they all watch
Get attention that I don't want
I'm gonna make it big one day so...
Take me to Hollywood
Terraform my body
To fit in at the pool parties
In Hollywood
Take me to California
So I can be reborn, yeah
My friends won't watch my show
Nightclubs that they don't know
Never have to atone
'Cause I can do no wrong
I'm ready for the spotlight
Burn me til I'm hot white
Sure I'll get used to this so...
Take me to Hollywood
Terraform my body
To fit in at the pool parties
In Hollywood
Take me to California
So I can be reborn, yeah

I’m sittin’ in a graveyard
Saying goodbye to old thoughts
Ones that held me long ago
I’m steering from the backseat
On my way to meet me
Making it up as I go
I’m not perfect yeah I know
It was time to let it go
Feel the garden growing over me
I’m liftin up a mountain
Searchin’ where I found it
What have we done?
I’m not perfect yeah I know
All the beauty will get old
Think it’s time to let it grow
I’m tearing at the fibers
Barely just surviving
Won’t you tell me what to do?
I’m buried on the sidewalk
Dancing with a lost cause
Please don’t tell me when it ends
What have we done?
We’re already gone
It’s getting dark
What have we done?
We’re already gone
It’s getting dark
What have I got to lose?
What have we done?
We’re already gone
It’s getting dark
What have we done?
We’re already gone
It’s getting dark
What have I got to lose?
Not a thing, not a thing
I’m sittin’ in a graveyard
Saying goodbye to old thoughts

I don't want to feel as though I'm outside
But walking is known to be good exercise
How many things were said versus implied?
A walk through the woods, yeah let's give it a try

Dream of winter not so far away
So cool
My babe
How you go
When you could stay
You leave me every summer
Dream of winter not so far away
I’m hiding from the sunlight
Just slippin through the day
Kick up the AC in the nighttime
So the memory don’t fade
Shakin’ through the night
Shakin through the night
Shakin through the night
Shakin through the night
Still hiding from the sunlight
Just sleepin life away
I hear it’s snowing in Otego
Baby I could use the chase
And I would change you alright
Dream of winter not so far away
Dreams are all I have for now
Dreams are all I have for now
Dreams are all I have for now
Dream of winter not so far away
Dreams are all I have for now

If you let me
I’ll drive you
To the place we hate to name
Cosmic joyride
If we act right
Grimace and say you’re alright
When I’m crying
The same way
That I did on the 405
Yeah you love me
Breathing heavy
Say it’s gonna be a long night
Lie back
With your eyes closed
And your hand holding mine
Even at our worst
We’re still singing in time
I will
Wait for
You to
Feel
Alive
Again
Even if it never happens
Burnin’ eyes
Skin so raw
You know that it will fade with time
Say don’t forget
This is no end
Just a small little pause before begin again
I will
Wait for
You to
Feel
Alive
Again
Even if it never happens
I will
Wait for
You to
Feel
Alive
Again
Even if it never happens
I will
Wait for
You to
Feel
Alive
Again
Even if it never happens

I miss somebody alright
They left me feelin’ low why?
I’m feelin’ all alone tonight
Wonderin’ why I’m reelin’ about something that was never right?
It’s time
Give me a little time
I can’t I’m fresh out
I wanna work it out
Think that I’ll just leave
Yeah I really might
Don’t
I didn’t know I could hurt you
But now I do I guess I shouldn’t want to
The distance between us now solidified
One too many nights let’s just call it a job well tried
I miss somebody alright
They left me feelin’ low why?
I’m feeling all alone tonight
Wondering why I’m reeling about something that was never right?

Six Eyes
03:14

Did I know these walls can talk?
Pounded pillow coming through.
I don’t want any space from you.
Chase my tail for a few.
Tongues red wagging and wheeling,
Mean, mean, mean without meaning.
Life is long, I’m really reeling.
One more time without feeling.
2 eyes, 4 eyes, 6 eyes, in the dark
Not a science, not an art.
6 eyes 4 eyes 2 eyes hit the lights.
Stay awake now through the night.
I just want to raise him right.
Thread the needle, thread the heart.
Loving you’s been easy,
But a family is hard.
I just want to raise him right,
Light flood peaceful memory
Loving you is easy,
I won’t make it hard.

I Wanna Be Famous

I can’t take it anymore
Leavin’ all your clothes on the floor
I wanna be famous
And I’d stop complainin’
Tried to say you were the opposite
When you
Tried to say you were my friend
Now you
Wanna move us to Los Angeles
When we
Say it’s time to play pretend
I can’t take it anymore
Leavin’ all your clothes on the floor
I wanna be famous
Then I’d stop complainin’
I can’t take it anymore
Leavin’ all your clothes on the floor
I wanna be famous
And I’d stop complainin’
And I’d stop
And I’d stop complainin’
And I’d stop
And I’d stop complainin’
