Wake Blue 04:37
Can't make it sit right And try as I might I just feed and feel the flame That burns more dark than bright I got to take you I got to break too I got to make do I'm gonna wake up blue Think me better, left alone Even now that time has flown You know its hurts me But boy it keeps me sane And now its got a hold And you can't say my name I got to take you I got to break too I got to make do I'm gonna wake up blue Think me better, left alone Even now that time has flown
2.
Butterflies 02:49
We give away butterflies, I gotta another size shoe for you Spend a day in your eyes and I'll wait til the days are through I know how the saying goes, I heard it too many times In my mind the gate is closed but I just wait in line I'm under your wing but my heads high in the clouds, I Gave myself on a whim And got lost inside the town But I'm proud I never struck him down. One look and you'd caught me, like a fish in your net Lest we forget I willed it to happen but what I want hasn't happened yet Took my time, forever toeing the line And that's fine but you given yourself to a man that got no spine. I'm under your wing but my heads high in the clouds, I Gave myself on a whim And got lost inside the town But I'm proud I never struck him down

Clicks 03:45
Silently I'm lulled by your strange touch it's beyond blame's clutch I can't feel the flame lick at me but you've burnt down to the quick of me With the soft sun hung to my back and my little hands cursing the black Your green eyes flickering and time's still tickering I'm steady by the grace of the wind It wins me over when we're stretched thin Oh baby I must If not for love then for your long lost lust I'm steady by the grace of the wind It wins me over when we're stretched thin Oh baby I must If not for love then for your long lost trust

Fallen 04:15
I should've been falling Instead I've been walking out for you And if I never asked The rolls have been cast, me out to blue Sleeping dust My sleeping's rough And from dawn til' dusk You keep me company Giving up on Love So why you giving up on love? So you heard the curtain calling And of course we were calling straight back Into the stagnant eyes of constant surprise So keep your words wise Can't you hear the clock it calls out your name It wants you back all the same Just like me, Just like the wind I can feel Your patience wears thin. Hang up your aching bones My clothesline's waiting for you.
5.
A debt that I never paid It always seems to get waylaid You've got me on my knees Praying for a sweet release A lesson I never learn A promise to return The earth turns sweetly Can you hear that whispered note What better end than to sail down the Devil's throat
