COPING

V

I know you’re afraid and uncomfortable

If you weren’t you couldn’t grow

When it’s time to start a new chapter

It’s okay to take it slow

C

You gotta let go

Yeah I know it’s scary

But deep down you know, there’s no way

It wont be the same

V

It’s a true test of character

Sometimes you’ll take one on the chin

But when you find out that you’re not alone

Then the healing can begin

C

You gotta let go

(It’s all we can do)

Yeah I know it’s scary

(It’s scary for me too)

But deep down you know, there’s no way

It wont be the same

OUT

We’ll make the most of it

We’re better for knowing

We’ll make the most of it

It’s all we can do…

INTUITION

V

Call it intuition

Call me out of touch

I call it instinct

But I keep pushing my luck

PC

I’m right - I’m right - I’m right

C

You keep running away

From this life that we made

Soon you’ll tire

And fall flat on your face

But realize

I did it all for you

I have no regrets

But it’s time I picked myself up

You’re wearing me out too

Don’t think I’ve got enough

It’s time I pick myself up

V

You think you’re the victim

That makes me the con

You know damn well we’re neither

You know damn well you’re wrong

PC

I’m right - I’m right - I’m right
C

You keep running away

From this life that we made

Soon you’ll tire

And fall flat on your face

But realize

I did it all for you

I have no regrets

But it’s time I picked myself up

You’re wearing me out too

Don’t think I’ve got enough

It’s time I pick myself up

OUT

I’m off my feet

I’m falling

Don’t let me go…

let go

V

Where do you go

When you’re not on my time?

I’m scared to death

Of what you might find out

PC

I know

You’re afraid to be alone

Although you never were

I know

Everything’s so unclear

C

Is it time I let go?

Is it time I let go?

Well who really knows

You might come back home

You probably won’t

V

I hope it makes you smile

For me it’s been awhile now

But you have to find your way

I struggle with what to say to you

PC

I know

You’re afraid to be alone

Although you never were

I know

Everything’s so unclear

C

Is it time I let go?

Is it time I let go?

Well who really knows

You might come back home

OUT

It’s time I let go

It’s time I let go

I probably won’t

failures

V

How do I know you’re trying?

How do I know that you still fight?

Tryin’ to find it out

Tryin’ to find what’s right

But how do I?

C

Maybe we could try

Hold on tight and close our eyes

Take us back in time

When we both controlled our lives

V

I can’t tell your lyin’

How do I know, when I can ‘t read your eyes?

Not getting any help and you’re feeding me lines

How do I?

C

Maybe we could try

Hold on tight and close our eyes

Take us back in time

When we both controlled our lives

When we both controlled our lives

When we both controlled our lives

OUT

If we’re faking now - we’re failures

If we’re fading out - we’re failures

If we’re faking now - we’re failures

If we’re fading out - we’re failures

If we’re faking now - we’re failures

If we’re fading out …

MAY GRAYS

V

I never asked you to give it up but I couldn’t stay

Not there nowhere near there

I had to get away

I’m not seeing red but I do feel guilty

For being right

The walls were closing in

Had to break away from our plight

PreC

It’s getting hotter

It’s getting harder to breath

Thought I’d see clearer

But I can’t see right in front of me

C

I’d like to say, that I

I’m not the same as I was

And I’d like to stay together/forever

But I don’t see how (I don’t see how)

V

So I took off for the west coast

To feel that saltwater air run through my hair

Try to escape the mundane

Something new and mental repair

I wasn’t looking for an angel

Just someone who tells it like it is

Not trying to be somebody or afraid to take a risk

PreC

It’s getting hotter

It’s getting harder to breath

Thought I’d see clearer

But I can’t see right in front of me

C

I’d like to say, that I

I’m not the same as I was

And I’d like to stay together/forever

But I don’t see how

…

I don’t see how

golden coast

V

I know things didn’t pan out

The way you wanted

The way you planned it

I know this isn’t easy but just take my hand if you still trust me

Foot on the gas and one on the brake

I said I’d do whatever it takes

I know you’re on the fence again

To keep it safe or keep pushing

So let me know…

C

When you’re on my side the Mississippi

Where the sky meets the earth on the open road

In no time now you’ll be with me

And we’ll embark in something new on the golden coast

V

It’s been rough it doesn’t have to be

We’ve had our shit and we’re still standing

I know we’re not what we once were

But we don’t want to be set free

(that’s gotta count for something)

So let me know…

C

When you’re on my side the Mississippi

Where the sky meets the earth on the open road

In no time now you’ll be with me

And we’ll embark in something new on the golden coast

We’ll embark in something new on the golden coast

OUT

How do you know if you’ve never tried?

(Don’t leave me here alone)

How do you know if you’ve never tried?

(Don’t leave me here alone)

How do you know if you’ve never tried?

(Don’t leave me here alone)

How do you know if you’ve never tried?

(Don’t leave me here alone)

How do you know if you’ve never tried?

How do you know if you’ve never tried?…

hello i’m sinking here

V

Here’s where it started

It was this time last year

We tried to confront this

Now nothing seems clear

It’s so convoluted

Everything’s gray

This used to be easy

I used to know what to say

C

I push you pull and we tear apart

Our light flickers and it breaks my heart

I push you pull where did this start?

No more spark but I’m still waiting

V

We need to be honest

We need to come clean

Come on let’s get real here

And say what we mean

Cuz now’s when we find out

If we’ll sink or swim

I’ll tread in this water if you’d just jump in

C

I push you pull and we tear apart

Our light flickers and it breaks my heart

I push you pull where did this start?

No more spark but I’m still waiting

OUT

If there is a light, it just went out

If there is a light, it just went out

If there is a light

If there is a light

If there is a light

If there is a light

If there is a light

If there is a light

If there is a light

(light)

If there is a light…

hold on

V

It’s a slow burn

The more I learn I realize

Nothing’s the way it seems

Is it a false hope? 

The more I choke I close my eyes

Are we living out our dreams?

PreC

The chill in this house

It can be completely paralyzing

When I’m surrounded by reminders of better times

C

You’ll always be my girl no matter where we are

Dreams change but I’ll be here

I’ll never be too far

You’ll always be my girl every day and night

Lost now but we’ll figure it out

I know we’ll get it right

V

It’s a lonesome trip

And the more we skip, we realize

We’re our best when we’re together

This thing that we have made it’s too special to give up

There’s not a fucking chance that this is the end

PreC

The chill in this house

It can be completely paralyzing

When I’m surrounded by reminders of better times

C

You’ll always be my girl no matter where we are

Dreams change and I’ll be here

I’ll never be too far

You’ll always be my girl every day and night

Lost now but we’ll figure it out

I know we’ll get it right

OUT

Hold on

Hold on

Hold on

Hold on…

i need to hear it

V

Strip me down

I have nothing left to bare

I sit and wonder if you’re leaving

I ditch town to stay busy and

Preoccupy my mind

I battle my brain but I’m losing

C

If you want to stay

I need to hear it from you now

I can’t take the in between

I need an answer

I need an answer

Not a longer string

I need an answer

If you still want me

V

I’m in this fog and I’m drifting in and out

I think I’m living in a nightmare

I need clarity

I need to drown out the noise

I need to find out what I value

C

If you want to stay

I need to hear it from you now

I can’t take the in between

I need an answer

I need an answer

Not a longer string

I need an answer

If you still want me

Bridge

If you still want me

If you still want me

If you still want me

C

If you want to stay

I need to hear it from you now

I can’t take the in between

I need an answer

I need an answer

Not a longer string

I need an answer

If you still want me…

yikes spikes

V

I put it on the line

I have my arms out wide now

Please don’t go, don’t turn away

How much can I allow?

PreC

But I’m feeling fine

C

Seems I’ve fallen for the same old shit

It’s happened once again

I’m a sucker, I’m a has been

But I can lie and say there’s no chance in hell I’ll stay

Truth is I’m scared of leaving

V

I’m beat up and broken down

Can’t remember who I am now

If you hold on, I’ll wait

I hope that it’s not too late

PreC

Now I’m killin’ time

C

Seems I’ve fallen for the same old shit

It’s happened once again

I’m a sucker, I’m a has been

But I can lie and say there’s no chance in hell I’ll stay

Truth is I’m scared of leaving

Truth is I’m scared of leaving

Out

I’ve waited so long

I can’t protect it

And now I’m alone

I’ve waited so long

I can’t protect it

And now I’m alone…

I started this god damn fire

V

He never wanted to live this way

So simple and so afraid

You’ve got to take control

The city’s calling to find what you don’t know

C

He set fire to the life

The only one he knew

Wasn’t all that bad 

He was happy with what he had

But when you stop pushing you start to wonder

V

Packed his car and drove all night

He left it all behind

Now he walks these streets alone

Thrilled with the unknown

Not knowing what he’ll find

C

He set fire to the life

The only one he knew

Wasn’t all that bad 

He was happy with what he had

But when you stop pushing

You start to wonder

He set fire to the life

The only one he knew

Fortunes told a change of scenery

Would be good for you

Out

We’re like glass

Fall to pieces when we crack

We’re like glass

Fall to pieces when we crack

We’re like glass

Fall to pieces when we crack

Need fire

To hold it all together…

wake the fuck up

V

Walking these old streets

Tripping on my feet

It seems I’ve lost my step up

What the hell am I working towards?

A dream that I deplore

What doesn’t thrill you drags on longer

C

Maybe I need to fall down again

Maybe I’ve been walking too tall

All my life

People said to reach the stars 

But they failed to mention the scars

I’m not looking for sympathy

Or your pity

Just searching for the truth

Like the rest of you

V

Now I can feel the heat

Or maybe it’s a sting

Feels like I’m being set up

Still I have to take a shot

It’s the only thing I got

While the world around me is sinking

C

Maybe I need to fall down again

Maybe I’ve been walking too tall

All my life

People said to reach the stars 

But they failed to mention the scars

I’ve got something to say

I’m starting over today

Out

Get up you’re awake now

Get up you’re awake now

Get up you’re awake now

Get up you’re awake now

Get up you’re awake now

Get up you’re awake now

Get up you’re awake now

Get up you’re awake now

(Get up you’re awake now)

(Get up you’re awake now…)
