<a name='adamant'></a>
<strong>Adamant</strong><br /><br />
none but shining hours you are swift to break<br />
i'm holding on to nothing, this thing<br />
holding on<br /><br />
adamant<br />
adamant<br />
adamant<br />
holding on<br /><br />
i wait, i crave the start of us<br />
i creep, i crave the start of us<br />
none but shining hours i am swift to take<br /><br />
adamant<br />
adamant<br />
adamant<br />
holding on<br /><br />

<a name='barnstormer'></a>
<strong>Barnstormer</strong><br /><br />
we took our morning coffee<br />
with idle conversation<br />
and stolen sugar packets<br />
and half and half<br />
and i fancied me a barnstormer<br />
out on your wing<br />
are you even listening?<br />
are you even listening?<br />
and i fancied us lovers, once<br />
i've only left to fall<br />
broken heart and all<br /><br />
with you, every silence is a song<br />
and you could make no solemn vow<br />
and every breath i take is wrong<br />
still filled with longing<br />
turn me upside down<br />
and i fancy me a barnstormer<br />
out on your wing<br />
are you even listening?<br /><br />
when i wake, i am craving salt<br />
sweet sweat you never bring<br />
love me, love, so it's not my fault<br />
downwards i'm spiralling<br /><br />
and i fancied us lovers, once<br />
i've only left to fall<br />
broken heart and all<br /><br />
---<br /><br />
<a name='cantsleep'></a>
<strong>Can't Sleep</strong><br /><br />
we raced up that hill<br />
fast as we can<br />
mud on our shins and eleven again<br /><br />
hard is the fall<br />
tumbling down<br />
with love as plain as the stain<br />
on the sheets of your bed<br />
rose red blood<br />
we're not eleven at all<br />
I still feel very small<br />
beneath the crush of your chest<br />
while you sleep<br />
I can't sleep<br />
while you sleep<br />
I can't sleep<br /><br />
to you, it's nothing at all<br />
it's like nothing at all<br />
it's like nothing at all<br /><br />
I keep wishing too hard to find spring again<br />
but you're only a man, you're only a man<br /><br />
to you, it's nothing at all<br />
it's like nothing at all<br />
pushing my buttons<br />
and love in the oven<br />
my sheets in a twist<br />
and my heart's in a knot<br />
and I'm twisting my hands<br />
but you're only a man<br />
you complicate me<br />
and I can't sleep<br /><br />
---<br /><br />
<a name='drift'></a>
<strong>Drift</strong><br /><br />
i had long said goodbye<br />
but went undressing wounds<br />
that had been bandaged by time<br />
they said you were the same<br />
you could always make me smile<br />
did your thoughts cross on my name?<br /><br />
or did that, like every other thing, turn to dust?<br />
or did that, like every other thing, shift like sand?<br /><br />
a fine fine grain among a hundred thousand<br />
always slipping through our hands<br />
a fine fine grain among a hundred thousand<br />
drifting back into the sea<br />
you didn't drift back home to me<br />
will you ever drift back home to me?<br /><br />
i would wake to your sigh<br />
or your laughter on the wind<br />
i could be chasing ghosts again<br />
i can dream you in the tide<br />
the salt in the sea<br />
ever stinging where we bleed<br /><br />
a fine fine grain among a hundred thousand<br />
always slipping through our hands<br />
a fine fine grain among a hundred thousand<br />
drifting back into the sea<br />
you could always drift back home to me<br />
you could always drift back home to me<br /><br />
a fine fine grain among a hundred thousand<br />
always slipping through our hands<br />
a fine fine grain among a hundred thousand<br />
drifting back into the sea<br /><br />
you could always drift back home to me<br />
you could always drift back home to me<br />
you could always drift back home to me<br />
you could always drift back home to me<br /><br />

<a name='intension'></a>
<strong>Intension</strong><br /><br />
easy does the heartstring slip through your hands<br />
mine are shaking with a fever<br />
desperate to undo the knots that you made<br />
poor attempt to set the thread straight<br /><br />
i would keep the lights<br />
turned on at the sides<br />
try to stare the night down<br /><br />
with my shoulders tight, back<br />
eyes wide<br />
face front<br />
all your gravity did need<br />
to wreak havoc on my fact<br />
is a look<br />
and my physics shook<br />
and my physics shook<br /><br />
with a gift of vulgar poetry i came<br />
parting my knees for you<br />
seeking something somewhat estuarial<br />
if you would only disembogue<br />
if i could only find some words when you are near<br />
if i could only keep myself from disappearing<br />
if i could only hold my ground<br />
i'm blown so petaline<br /><br />
---<br /><br />
<a name='lrr'></a>
<strong>Lather Rinse Repeat</strong><br /><br />
oh here we go again<br />
don't you tire of these games?<br />
afraid my heart is sinking in<br />
the sand of your quick<br /><br />
don't put all the blame on me<br />
and act as if it's not your fault<br />
when every time we say it's done<br />
you come running back<br /><br />
you make me fall apart<br />
to pick the pieces up again<br />
a fragment of my heart<br />
is lost in every rise<br />
to your eyes<br /><br />
and i know, and i know i should stay away<br />
but that would make your life too easy<br />
and i bend and you bend and we try to break<br /><br />
you make me fall apart<br />
to pick the pieces up again<br />
a fragment of my heart<br />
is lost in every rise<br />
to your eyes<br /><br />
and i know, and i know i should stay away<br />
but that would make your life to easy<br />
and i bend and you bend and we try to break<br />
but we just can't break<br /><br />

<strong>Mood</strong> (written by Mike)<br /><br />
it puts me in a mood that im out of<br />
one i cant shout of<br />
for all of my life<br />
and it puts me in a mood im not proud of<br />
lets start the countdown<br />
to the rest of my life<br /><br />
outside in a haunted room<br />
I think it's a smile<br />
fourteen years of a loveless life<br />
and it ended by her morning light<br /><br />
we're spending hours alone on a quiet night<br />
but I still feel we're together when it gets bright<br /><br />
and it puts me in a mood that im out of<br />
one i cant shout of<br />
for all of my life<br />
and it puts me in a mood im not proud of<br />
lets start the countdown<br />
to the rest of my life<br /><br />
i cant drive fast enough to<br />
bring about the change that I want<br />
shallow is the game that we play<br />
but what I need is miles away<br /><br />
a thousand stars will be my guide tonight<br />
i hope i see you tomorrow by daylight<br /><br />
rest your head on a pillow<br />
muffle the noise with your sleep<br />
the hotel room, it was different<br />
we could talk through my teeth<br /><br />
and it puts me in a mood that im out of<br />
one i cant shout of<br />
for all of my life<br />
and it puts me in a mood im not proud of<br />
lets start the countdown<br />
to the rest of my life<br /><br />
and it puts me in a mood that im out of<br />
all of the feelings<br />
im empty of tonight<br />
and it puts me in a mood that i doubt will<br />
cancel the doubt you'll<br />
hang up tonight<br /><br />
and it puts me in a mood that im out of<br />
one i cant shout of<br />
for all of my life<br />
and it puts me in a mood im not proud of<br />
lets start the countdown<br />
to the rest of my life<br /><br />

<strong>Pens and Knives</strong><br /><br />
i could drown in alcohol<br />
and pass out in a stranger's bed<br />
but it wouldn't be my style<br />
i could take a sleeping pill<br />
and dream of nothing but blue<br />
a hue tainted with you<br /><br />
pens and knives<br />
i carve another thought<br />
you try to ink with iodine<br />
i'll be all right<br />
your antiseptic stings a little<br />
blame it all on pens and knives<br /><br />

<strong>Plenty of Stuffing</strong> (written by Mike)<br /><br />
<em>(Instrumental)</em><br /><br />
---<br /><br />
<a name='revolverunloaded'></a>
<strong>Revolver Unloaded</strong><br /><br />
cigarettes and broken glass<br />
shallow breaths and bleeding hands<br />
cut up from the trip<br />
enjoy the view from where you stand<br />
i find it hard not to pretend<br />
this isn't it<br /><br />
i'm waiting<br />
you're aiming<br />
your loaded gun<br />
i'm waiting<br />
you're aiming<br />
your loaded gun<br /><br />
we talk around the subject much<br />
but never really touch the point at hand<br />
doubling back, go half a step<br />
a half a step, a half a step<br />
but are we any closer to the end?<br /><br />
i'm waiting<br />
you're aiming<br />
your loaded gun<br />
i'm waiting<br />
you're aiming<br />
your loaded gun<br /><br />
if i manage to rise<br />
to meet your eyes<br />
am i compromised?<br /><br />
---<br /><br />
<a name='smwow'></a>
<strong>Six More Weeks of Winter</strong><br /><br />
frostbit lips you never kiss<br />
oh, how is this that we're freezing indoors?<br />
thought this was san diego<br />
you fall asleep beside me<br />
i could hold you close<br />
but i need to learn the finer art of being cold<br />
the finer art of letting go<br /><br />
are we defined by tv shows?<br />
the morning news breaks the quiet of your room<br />
but i would rather watch the soaps<br />
are we defined by radios?<br />
you like my taste in music<br />
and that's about where we begin and end<br />
the line that ties us both as friends<br /><br />
i'd never thought i'd see the snow<br />
but i never thought i could burn so cold<br />
for you without a reason why<br />
another lazy afternoon<br />
spent in sterile silence, next to you<br />
your winter turns my world to white<br />
what would it take to change your mind?<br /><br />
---<br /><br />
<a name='tugofwar'></a>
<strong>Tug of War</strong><br /><br />
boy if you're yanking my chain<br />
i would appreciate another pull<br />
no finer feeling so false<br />
comes close to breaking my golden rule<br /><br />
don't fall in love<br />
always be sure to leave hearts in the dust<br />
leave the boy in the mud<br />
this game was fun<br />
thought for a minute there that it could last<br />
but the chain come undone<br />
and where you end and i begin<br />
is as clear as the sun<br /><br />
boy if you're yanking my chain<br />
whoever told you that this was cool?<br />
you played a little too nice<br />
i let my guard down<br />
though i hike my skirt up my thigh<br />
won't keep it clean<br />
you like it dirty dirty dirty<br />
and secretly<br />
i do agree<br />
and when the wind changed<br />
i got a hard spray<br />
a lesson i need<br /><br />
don't fall in love with feelings so fast<br />
unstable footing, a face in the sand<br />
boy you leave me for dust<br />
and then you come back<br />
and you help me up<br />
held my hand<br />
tell me something<br />
was this all in your plan?<br />
i think that you must know something i don't<br />
if this isn't lust, is this love?<br />
do i trust you to come back?<br />
and all the heartache<br />
you're passing my way<br />
is something i need<br /><br />
---<br /><br />
<a name='yfam'></a>
<strong>You Forget About Me</strong><br /><br />
well you say that you just want to be friends<br />
and i guess that i could understand that<br />
so i buried my heart under your tree<br />
but it still don't stop the beat<br />
no it still don't stop the beat<br />
when you forget about me<br /><br />
you are taking root on the inside<br />
and you don't even know what you squeeze<br />
i'm still weak in the knees<br />
i'm always pleased to see you but oh<br />
oh, i said oh<br />
how you forget about me<br />
how you forget about me<br /><br />
i'm taking my time<br />
so i'm sure i'll be fine<br />
but i'm losing my head<br />
when you're changing your mind<br />
i was head over heels<br />
but now i'm just down, down, down<br />
down down baby down down your rollercoaster<br />
sweet sweet baby i'll never let you go<br />
i wanna let you go<br />
but i can't let you go<br />
though you forget about me<br /><br />
forget about forget about forget about it!<br />
no, i don't want to play<br />
i lost my heart<br />
like a game of cards<br />
not poker, just old maid<br />
that's what i get for wearing my heart on my sleeve<br />
boy, you can tell me that you never meant to deceive<br />
but it still don't stop the hurt<br /><br />
forget about forget about forget about it!<br />
no, i don't want to play<br />
if i agree, it won't guarantee<br />
that with me you'll choose to stay<br /><br />
and i have changed my mind<br />
so many times<br />
i've called you up<br />
to read between the lines<br />
but i can't hide behind a bluff<br />
and i have lost enough<br /><br />
that's what i get<br />
for wearing it out on my sleeve<br />
boy, you can tell me that you never meant to deceive<br />
but it still don't stop the hurt<br />
no, it still don't stop the hurt<br />
