Forgive me if I'm keeping you apart from better conversation...


Yesterday the odds were stacked in favor of my expectations
Flying above the rest, never fallin' from the nest
Tuesday came and went and now I'm in a little situation
Maybe it's for the best, I can live alone, I guess

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he'll fly on home

Forgive me if I'm keeping you apart from better conversation
I'm hung up on all my doubt, trying to sort the whole thing out
Tell me that I'm smart enough to deal with all the information
Spinning inside my head every word he ever said

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he'll fly on home

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he'll fly on home

And who do you think you are? Running ’round leaving scars. Don’t come back for me, don’t come back at all.

I know I can’t take one more step towards you
Cause all that’s waiting is regret
Don’t you know I’m not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I've learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin’ ’round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
Tearing love apart
You’re gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don’t come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you’re asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

I’ve learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are?
Runnin’ ’round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You’re gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don’t come back for me
Who do you think you are?

It took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you’re back
You don’t get to get me back

And who do you think you are?
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You’re gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don’t come back for me
Don’t come back at all
And who do you think you are?
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You’re gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don’t come back for me
Don’t come back at all

Who do you think you are?...
Who do you think you are?...
Who do you think you are?...

I'm trying to break through...


Since when do you come around?
And the temperature's changed, nothing's the same
Left me in yesterday
You don't see me that way, touch me that way, no more..
When'd you get so cold?
I'm not sure just how much longer I can hold...

You got me standing at the bottom
Of this mountain that we've made
And the ground is shaking from all of our mistakes
But there's no one, nothing but us is in our way
It's a matter of time, we can rewind

If only you knew
What my heart goes through for you
I'm trying to break through,
Don't you think it's worth the chance?
Let's leave the past, is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand?
Can we pull through this avalanche?
This avalanche...
Can we pull through this avalanche?
This avalanche...

We see what's up ahead
Why do we stay?
Watching us fading
Trapped in by regret
There's no way out, and there's no way in, no
And it's so cold, I'm not sure just how much longer I can hold

You got me standing at the bottom
Of this mountain that we've made
And the ground is shaking from all of our mistakes
But there's no one, nothing but us is in our way
It's a matter of time, we can rewind

If only you knew,
What my heart goes through for you
I'm trying to break through,
Don't you think it's worth the chance?
Let's leave the past, is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand?
Can we pull through this avalanche?
This avalanche...
Can we pull through this avalanche?
This avalanche...

The bond is breaking and it's taking over my spirit
Quickly, quickly...
Something's shifted, have we drifted too far apart now?

If only you knew,
What my heart goes through for you
I'm trying to break through,
Don't you think it's worth the chance?
Let's leave the past, is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand?
Can we pull through this avalanche?
This avalanche...
Can we pull through this avalanche?
This avalanche...

My my my, my my my, my my my my, my…Who will love you? who will fight?


Come on skinny love just last the year
Pour a little salt we were never here
My my my, my my my, my my my my, my…
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer

I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
My my my, my my my, my my my my, my…
Right in the moment this order’s tall

And I told you to be patient, and I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced, and I told you to be kind
And in the morning I’ll be with you
But it will be a different kind
Cause I’ll be holding all the tickets
And you’ll be owning all the fines

Come on skinny love what happened here
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
My my my, my my my, my my my my, my …
Sullen load is full so slow on the split

And I told you to be patient, and I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced, and I told you to be kind
And now all your love is wasted then who the hell was I?
Cause now I’m breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines

Who will love you? who will fight?
And who will fall, far behind?

Come on skinny love ……..
My my my, my my my, my my my my…
My my my, my my my, my my my my…

It's a bit early in the midnight hour for me...

It's a bit early in the midnight hour for me
To go through all the things that I want to be
I don't believe in everything I see
You know I'm blind so why'd you disagree

So take me away, cause I just don't want to stay
And the lies you make me say
Are getting deeper everyday
These are crazy days but they make me shine
Time keeps rolling by

All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
We're gonna make a better day
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
You know it's gonna be okay

What you gonna do when the walls come falling down?
You never move, you never make a sound
Where you gonna swim with the riches that you found?
If you're lost at sea, well I hope that you've drowned

Take me away, cause I just don't want to stay
And the lies you make me say
Are getting deeper everyday
These are crazy days but they make me shine
Time keeps rolling by

All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
We're gonna make a better day
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
You know it's gonna be okay

All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
We're gonna make a better day
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
You know it's gonna be okay
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
We're gonna make a better day
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
You know it's gonna be okay
It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay
It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
We're gonna make a better day
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
You know it's gonna be okay
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
We're gonna make a better day
All around the world, you've got to spread the word
Tell them what you heard
You know it's gonna be okay

I don't know what I know
What I know, what I know
Yeah, I know what I know
It's gonna be okay
I don't know what I know
What I know, what I know
Yeah, I know what I know
It's gonna be okay

Yeah I know what I know
I don't know, what I know
Yeah I know what I know
It's gonna be okay
Yeah I know what I know
I don't know, what I know
Yeah I know what I know
Pig's don't fly, never say die

So things are gonna fly, never say die
Things are gonna fly, never say die

Things are gonna fly, never say die
So things are gonna fly, never say die
So things are gonna fly, never say die
So things are gonna fly, never say die...

Little by little, the wheels of your life have slowly fallen off...



We the people fight for our existence
We don't claim to be perfect but we're free
We dream our dreams alone with no resistance
Fading like the stars we wish to be

You know I didn't mean
What I just said
But my God woke up
On the wrong side of his bed
And it just don't matter now

Cause little by little
We gave you everything you ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of your life have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You're really here

True perfection has to be imperfect
I know that that sounds foolish but it's true
The day has come and now you'll have to accept
The life inside your head we give to you

You know I didn't mean
What I just said
But my God woke up
On the wrong side of his bed
And it just don't matter now

Cause little by little
We gave you everything you ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of your life have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You're really here

Cause little by little
We gave you everything you ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of your life have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You're really here
Why am I really here?
Why am I really here?
