"Same Blood"

Like a cold day in august
I was not prepared for this
You think that nobody noticed
The way that you still care about it...

With all the people we need to love and hate,
Everybody makes the same mistakes
Divided by these walls,
Together we are lost

We are the same blood
all of us. we are. we are
While half of us were lost
The other half forgot

We are the same blood
We are the same blood
We are the same

You remind me of august
The way that I still care about
All the things that you promised
When I was still around
Pick you up and drive you down

We are the same blood
all of us. we are. we are
While half of us were lost
The other half forgot

We are the same blood
We are the same blood
We are the same blood
We are the same...

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh...

We are the same blood
all of us. we are. we are.
We are the same blood
all of us. we are. we are.
We are the same blood

While half of us were lost
(Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
The other half forgot

We are the same blood
We are the same blood
We are the same blood
We are the same blood

Hey hey hey

"LAX To O'Hare"

It was a plane ride from LAX to O'Hare,
and what happened next was a series of unfortunate events.
(Please stay tuned for what happened next...)
The life I breathe for you gives to me new wounds
Well to patch and dress as I reflect on what else I could give you.

Maybe I should blindly throw my faith
into the next thing that comes my way
Standing at the back door with the life that she left behind.
Are we all the same behind the frame
Beneath the glass and fake last names?
I've been waiting far too long to feel the sun on my back.

It was a big bang
and a bright white light from no where.
It turned my coach class window to
A first class seat on the evening news, on NBC.
The life I gave for you is yours
So keep it, you oughtta keep it.
If I had one last chance to take it all back
You know I'd take take take you.

Maybe I should blindly throw my faith
Into the next thing that comes my way.
Standing at the back door with the life that she left behind.
Are we all the same behind the frame
between the glass and fake last names?
I've been waiting far too long to feel the sun on my back.

"Apologies are all we'll ever be," she said.
Standing on the stairs
Looking back, looking hard at me.
"Well, life is long for those who have to wait," I said.
The choice I had to make.
The choice I had to make.
The choice I had to...
(Make)

It was a plane ride. (plane ride)
It was a plane ride. (plane ride)
It was a plane ride.
Just a plane...

Maybe I should blindly throw my faith
Into the next thing that comes my way.
Standing at the back door with the life that I'd left behind.
If we know the way we're gonna die
Through everything else we will survive.
I've been waiting far too long to feel the sun on my back-
Yeah

But one day,
I will stay.

"We've Got A Big Mess On Our Hands"

(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
I’ve got that lefty curse
Where everything I do is flipped
And awkwardly reversed
You’re seldom known and barely missed
I always put myself
In destructive situations
I need oxygen
To be exposed where no one goes, where no one’s been
When it all comes crashing…

(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Now we’ve got a big, big
Mess on our hands tonight.
Sing it (yeah)
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Now we’ve got a big, big
Mess on our hands tonight.

Somebody get my phone
So I can throw it in a public
Pool and watch it float
And as it slowly sinking down,
Become a social ghost
Inside a box, cut at the top
To let some light shine in
To remind me what I’ve done and where I’ve been
When it all comes crashing…

(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Now we’ve got a big, big
Mess on our hands tonight.
Sing it (woah)
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Now we’ve got a big, big, big, big
Mess on our hands, on our hands.

Don’t give in, don’t give up,
I’ll be gone.
You don’t look innocent enough.
We’re too young to be critics
We won’t miss anything at all
Don’t give in, don’t give up
I don’t look innocent with this big, big mess on,
I’ll say something else.

(woah)
(woah)
(woah oh)

We've got a big, big mess
Oh, we've got a big, big mess
Oh, we've got a big, big mess
A big, big mess
Now we've got a big, big mess
A big, big mess
Now come on

(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Now we’ve got a big, big
Mess on our hands tonight.
Sing it (woah)
(ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Now we’ve got a big, big, big, big
Mess on our hands, on our hands,

Don’t give in, don’t give up (we've got a big, big mess)
I’ll be gone. (a big, big mess)
I don’t look innocent enough
We’re too young to be cynics (we've got a big, big mess on our hands)
We won’t wish any harm at all
Don’t give in, don’t give up (we've got a big, big mess)
No one looks innocent with this big big mess on our hands tonight.
(a big, big mess. we've got a big, big mess on our hands)

When it all comes crashing.

"Sleeping With Giants (Lifetime)"

I've noticed, people, they all have motives.
Different, yet all the same.
I fumble through every word that was spoken,
and I barely knew your name.
I'm tongue-tied, it runs through my blood and my insides;
Some things we can't escape.
But if we try, if we try, we can leave this behind.

It's been a lifetime, a lifetime we waited for.
A simple question, kid, "are you with me or not at all?"

Your eyes wide, always ahead of the curve type,
Quiet, and confident.
Oh, we stood there, awkward and youthful, we tangled;
A piece of my soul escaped.
Oh, we are restless and tired of sleeping with giants,
A modern mankind with their egos of fire and it seems like

It's been a lifetime, a lifetime we've waited for.
A simple question, kid, "are you with me or not at all?"

Are we wasting time or is it wasting us?
It's been a lifetime waiting for now, now.
Well, you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way before you fold.

It's been a lifetime, a lifetime I've been waiting for.
A simple question, kid, "are you with me or not at all?"

It's been a lifetime, a lifetime we waited for.
I need an answer, kid, you're either with me or not at all, no, no.
Are we wasting time or is it wasting us?
It's been a lifetime, a lifetime, a lifetime, lifetime, yeah.
Well, you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way.
Son you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way before you fold.

"Everything We Had"

You were the only face I'd ever known.
I was the light from the lamp on the floor,
and only as bright as you wanted me to be.
But I am no gentleman, I can be a prick,
and I do regret more than I admit.
You have been followed back to the same place
I sat with you drink for drink.
Take the pain out of love, and then love won't exist.

Everything we had, everything we had,
everything we had, everything we had
Is no longer there.

It was the only place I'd ever known.
Turned off the light on my way out the door.
I will be watching wherever you go,
through the eyes of a fly on the wall.
You have been followed back to the same place
I sat with you drink for drink.
Take the pain out of love and then love won't exist.

Everything we had, everything we had,
everything we had, everything we had
Is no longer there, longer there.

Well, you saw for yourself, the way it played out.
For you, I am blinded.
For you, I am blinded, for you.

I am no gentleman, I can be a prick.
And I do regret more than I admit.
You have been followed back to the same place
I sat with you drink for drink.
Take the pain out of love, and then love won't exist.

Everything we had, everything we had,
(you have been followed, you have been followed.)
everything we had, everything we had.
(you have been followed, you have been followed.)
Everything we had, everything we had,
(you have been followed, you have been followed.)
everything we had...

I'll be with you wherever you go,
through the eyes of a fly on the wall.

"Bulls In Brooklyn"

Some people have it and other people don't
You been making some threats. Got my name and address
I'm breaking habits you don't want to know
Although I'm wearing my clothes, feeling cold and exposed, yeah

Don't say you miss me, you probably don't
Well I been crossing some lines, that most folks won't yeah

Don't think you're more than this, or above all this
With your "blah blah blah" and all your friends
Don't say you think you know when you know you don't
Because tonight the bulls are in Brooklyn and you're still at home

Some people have it and other people don't
Though the road that we've paved still goes both ways
I'm breaking habits you don't want to know
Well I been crossing some lines that most folks won't

Don't think you're more than this, or above all this
With your "blah blah blah" and all your friends (all your friends)
Don't say you think you know when you know you don't
Because tonight the bulls are in Brooklyn and you're still at home

Don't think you're more than this, or above all this

Because tonight the bulls in Brooklyn, said

Some people have it and other people don't

"Neighbors"

I took a step back as the room was filling up
And I was packed against these people who were tossing up a strong vibe
Now the door's locked
And the shower's on.
And I realize I don't recognize anyone,
But I don't mind
Well the neighbors have complained damn near every night.
The neighbors have complained damn near every night.

You shoulda shown up
Shoulda shown up by now
You shoulda shown up by now
With a knock at the door,
The knock at the door as it goes
Whoa...

Well now everybody's losing control!
Intoxicated circulation...
Just try and sit back, get my palette wet,
Getting mentally prepared for the consequences
And you know why...
Because that knock at the door
Calls the crowd to quiet.
The neighbors have complained damn near every night.

You shoulda shown up
Shoulda shown up by now
You shoulda shown up by now
Give it a rest, give it a rest, give it a rest
You shoulda shown up
Shoulda shown up by now
You shoulda shown up by now
With a knock at the door
The knock at the door as it goes
Whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa...

There's no one left lying on the second story floorboards
And I'm sure they heard next door
But the bottles are hollow now
And there's room at the bottom
And I would take it all back
If I could, but I won't!

Sit back, get my palette wet,
Getting mentally prepared for the consequences
And you know why...
Because the neighbors have complained damn near every night.

Whoa... whoa... whoa... whoa...

"Seed"

Subjects are thrown around the room
Looking for the ones that got away
A feeling of soft anticipation
Another confrontation I won't make
But how do we do it
We turned into something else entirely
We fake it
But I wanted it so desperately to be real

Run, run, holding on to some pieces that you left behind
Hope now, as I walk away, you're the one that finds me out
Run from the only thing left that I hold close

While he's letting you in
You've got the feeling you've been followed under your skin
It will be weighing on your shoulder, believe it.
If I could express it in a different dialect or in a delicate way
I'd capture the phrases inside the cage beneath my chest
And keep it locked for days
I wanted you so desperately to believe me

Run, run, why are you running from another conversation?
Someone that I've been planning on, you're the one that finds me out.
There's nowhere, now I found you, that I won't go.

I'm always letting you in.
You've got the feeling you've been followed under your skin.
It will be weighing on your shoulder.
You've got that seed in you.
You've got that scene in you.

Run, run, what are you running from?
Let all your small steps expose your secrets.
You don't have to speak for me to believe it.
But what do you mean? Yeah...ha-ha

Shaken and faint, you've got the feeling you've been followed
under your skin. It will be weighing on your shoulder.
You've got that seed in you.
You've got that scene in...
While letting you in, you got the feeling you've been followed.
Are you listening to anything I said?
Said to anything I said (You've got that seed in you)
Said (You've got that scene in you)

Shaken and faint, it was the hardest thing to swallow.
Pretending you don't miss me.
You've got that seed in you.
You've got that scene in...
While letting you in, I'll be thinking about tomorrow.
And every time we cross those lines.
You've got that seed in you.
You've got that scene in...
Hope now, as I walk away, you're the one that finds me out.

"Chop Chop"

Chop chop

I've got myself to blame for this
I've tried to compensate for everything I'm not,
and every face forgotten.
You felt the sun warming your bed
you looked so quintessential pressed against that cross,
in the face of what was lost.
Still I'm not asking much of me,
and you're ignoring the matter...

You'll shut me up and bleed me dry.
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
If nothing else matters, then
I will die trying,
thinking about you and I.

Three years on Friday since we met
you felt that existential kiss upon your neck.
how could we forget that?
Still I'm through acting like this feels right,
and that nothing else matters.

You'll shut me up and bleed me dry.
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
If nothing else matters, then
I will die trying,
trying not to think about you...
Yeah

It's on yourself and no one else.
It's on yourself and no one else.
but without hindsight
I guess it serves me right.

You'll shut me up and bleed me dry.
Cheap champagne and a disappearing lifeline.
if nothing else matters
then I will die trying
thinking about you and I.

Shut me up and bleed me dry
it's only a matter of time
Cheap champagne and a complicated lifestyle
it's only a matter of time.

"You Might Have Noticed"

If you're under the impression I'm alright.
I guess you never noticed.
I guess you might have known
I've been holding this together for so long.
But I guess you might have noticed.
Well I guess you...

The beast within the burden is all mine
A product of his father, a slave to his pride.
I feel I need to reveal my true stripes,
But the bitch of all this trouble here
Waits behind the wind to find out.

You set me up to leave me,
You wanted to feel,
Shallow love, shallow lives.
With every word, you speak of what you wanted from me.
Wanted from me... Yeah

I'm sinking more and more into my lies.
Now home is just a pinprick in the vastness of my life.
Feel the pressure, feel the pleasure,
Feel the pain, you're not alone.
Feel the pleasure, feel the pain,
Feel the pain.

You set me up to leave me,
You wanted to feel,
Shallow love, shallow lives.
With every word, you speak of what you wanted from me.
Wanted from me... Yeah

Realizations, I am not what you thought I was.
You change directions everytime someone judges us.
In moderation, what was once us now never was.
You change directions everytime someone judges us.

You set me up to leave me,
You wanted to feel,
Shallow love, shallow lives.
With every word, you speak of what you wanted from me.
Wanted from me... Yeah

Realizations, I am not what you thought I was.

"Unexpected Places"

Don't try and tell me you've been looking at me.
Cuz I've been looking at you.
And I can read what you think. Yea.
Don't cut no corners when you're talking to me.
Like I don't know how it is,
But I can see it.

You've got no answers but you've got your concerns
About the people we see
And all the secrets we keep
I think about what you're expecting of me
Like you don't know how it is,
But I can see all of it.

We always have to wait
By the choice we had to make
You sold yourself so short,
Is this the way to carry on?
In the most unexpected places...

Don't try and tell me you've been thinking of us,
Cuz I will never believe you, now you're shit out of luck, yeah.
Don't cut no corners when you're talking at me.
Like I don't know how it is
But I can see all of it.

So that we always have to wait
By the choice we had to make
You sold yourself so short,
Is this the way to carry on?
In the most unexpected places...
I see...

We always have been caged
By the choices that we make.
You sold yourself so short.
Is that the way to carry on?
In the most unexpected places, I see changes.
In the most unexpected faces, I see changes.

We always have to wait
By the choices that we made.
You sold yourself so short,
Is this the way to carry on?
In the most unexpected places...
I see changes.
We always have been caged
By the choices that we made.
We sold ourselves so short.
Is this the way to carry on?
Is this the way to carry on?
Is this the way to carry on?
Is this the way to carry on?
Is this the way to carry on?
Is this the way to carry on?

"40 Steps"

Soft light, total silence
So tired to take the table near the door
The table near the door
Sat back on the fire
Only as stable as it'll choose to show
If I choose to show
But where were you that night?
When I was...

Well, I feel that this an explosion
Nobody else could ever really know
I will follow you anywhere

You say you don't believe in science
You're always afraid of what you can't control
I will follow you anywhere
But where were you that night?
When I was...

When I was calling for the answer
That you probably shouldn't know
Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here
When you were calling with your question
When all I needed was to know
Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here

Unkept and over caffeinated
I walked the forty steps to the moon
You met me

You say you don't believe in science
You're always ashamed of what you're willing to lose
I will follow you anywhere
But where were you that night?
When I was...

When I was calling for the answer
That you probably shouldn't know
Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here
When you were calling with your question
When all I needed was to know
Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here

So this is it
So this is it
So this is the silence
So this is the silence we became
It's never quite
It's never quite over
It's never quite over in the sorrow

When I was calling for the answer
That you probably shouldn't know
Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here
When you were calling with your question
When all I needed was to know
Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here

"Ghost"

Hey, stop on a dime.
Take both your hands,
reach them above, one at a time.
Are you alone in here?
I heard the voice so clearly.

I tried not to breathe.
Tried not to speak.
Clamping my tongue between my teeth.
Are you alone in here?
I heard the voice so clearly say,

Well, there are fine lines I've seen we are stuck in between.
With separate eyes to use and throw aside.
How we die, nobody wants to know.
Who decides where everybody goes.
Where everybody goes.

Oh, no, this can't be it.
I start to sweat.
Haunted by all the things I've missed.
This can't be right.
I realize right then that it's me or him, yeah.

There are fine lines I've seen we are stuck in between.
With separate eyes to use and throw aside.
How we die, nobody has to know.
Who decides where everybody goes.
Where everybody goes.
(What if I don't?)

Oh, no, I can't believe this.
I don't know why this had to happen.
I had no choice.
Well, it was me or him.

There's a fine line between what is justified or just obscene.
Fragile lines to use and throw aside.
How to die, nobody wants to know.
Who decides where everybody goes.

How we die, no, I will never know.
Who decides where everybody goes.

Who decides where everybody goes.

"Toasted Skin"

So the season's changed your face,
toasted skin turned darker shades
so as to better disguise your figure from the streetlights.

First floor window opened up
as you tip-toe on the back porch,
to meet the new girl on the corner,
Make your big plans for the summer.

No one's gonna stay inside,
We're singing,
(dododododo)
We are finally here,
and we're not going nowhere without our friends.
And we can't stop singing,
(dododododo)
Everybody's making sure we stay up till sunset,
but we can't forget.

If we ever find our way back,
this is all we've got.

S-so you borrow your best friend's Jeep,
cracked her windshield and lost her keys.
Crashed the rich kids' parties,
got kicked off of private beaches.
We introduced our friends to yours,
and we would laugh while we were ignored.
And from coast to coast, we'll soon disperse,
but let's live tonight like it's our first.

We've got fast food, tattoos, late talks, longer walks,
checking for the music, for the fireworks and alcohol.

No one's gonna stay inside,
we're singing,
(dododododo)
We are finally here,
and we're not going nowhere without our friends.
And we can't stop singing,

Everybody's making sure we stay up till sunset,
but we can't forget.

If we ever find our way back,
this is all we've got.

I will never sleep in with the shades drawn,
casting shadows on my bed.
Tomorrow feels like it's meant for the fight,
soaring beyond, twisting above.
And when I sleep, I still can feel it,
I can feel it, I can feel.
When I sleep, I still can feel it,
I can feel it, I can feel.
When I sleep, I still can feel it,
I can feel it, I can feel.

No one's gonna stay inside,
we're singing,
(dododododo)
Fuck yeah!
Finally here, and we're not going nowhere without our friends.
And we can't stop singing,

Everybody's making sure we stay up 'till sunset,
but we can't forget.

If we ever find our way back,
if we ever find our way back.

First floor window opened up,
as you tip-toe on the back porch.
(if we ever find our way back)
To meet the new girl on the corner,
make your big plans for the summer.
(if we ever find our way back)

If we ever find our way back,
this is all we've got.
