Wander




Save your fragile mama's heart,
And though she will come for you,
But I wander






And I wonder,
Just how far will you need to be,
For shaking talk so easily,
For hours on end I wander,
Still I don't even...know her





Feel just like I need to be,
Back where I was,
Before I couldn't do that,
And I wander






And I wonder,
Just how far will you need to be,
For shaking talk so easily,
For hours on end I wander,
Still I don't even know






How it keep a lid on me,
How it keep a lid on me







And I wonder
Just how far will you need to be,
For shaking tough so easily,
For hours on end I wander







How it keeps a lid on me,
How it keeps a lid on me (and I wonder),
How it keeps a lid on me (just how far will you need to be),
How it keeps a lid on me (for shaking tough so easily),
How it keeps a lid on me (for hours on end I wonder),
How it keeps a lid on me,






How it keeps a lid on me

Feels Like We Only Go Backwards










It feels like I only go backwards baby
Every part of me says "go ahead".
I got my hopes up again, oh no... not again.
Feels like we only go backwards darling.








I know that you think, you sound
Silly when you call my name (my name)
But I get it inside my head all day.
When I realize I'm just holding onto
The hope that maybe
Your feelings don't show...









It feels like I only go backwards baby.
Every part of me says go ahead.
I got my hopes up again, oh no... not again.
Feels like we only go backwards darling.








The seed of all this indecision isn't me, oh no,
'Cause I decided long ago.
But that's the way it seems to go when trying
So hard to get to something real,
It feels...









It feels like I only go backwards darling,
Every part of me says "go ahead".
I got my hopes up again, oh no... not again.
Feels like we only go backwards darlin'.









Feels like I only go backwards baby,
Every part of me says "go ahead".
I got my hopes up again, oh no... not again.
Feels like we only go backwards darling.

Be above it











Gotta be above it

And I know that I gotta be above it now
And I know that I can't let them bring me down
And I gotta fight my time as a face in the crowd
And I know that I gotta be above it now








And I know that I gotta be above it now

And I gotta bide my time as a face in the crowd
And I know that I gotta be above it now
And I cannot let them all just bring me down








This time I'm just gonna take it all
I'm never gonna shake it up
I'll just close my eyes and make so that all these things don't affect me now
I know that I gotta be above it now









And I cannot let them all just bring me down

This time I'm just gonna take or I'm never gonna shake it
I'll just close my eyes and make so that all these things don't affect me now

Gotta be above it

Elephant










Well, he feels like an elephant
Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it
He knows that you're dreaming about being over him







Too bad your chances are slim








And it's not like mister shook to get shy when they ask him who is under
There must be something deep down in the middle down there








He's not too easily scared








He's got friends but they have fear
Who don't care too much if he just disappeared
Oh, look there he is now coming down the stairs








Here it comes






He pulled the mirrors off his Cadillac
'Cause he doesn't like it looking like he looks back
He talks like his opinion is a simple fact






Somebody grabbed his collar
He cried the whole way home
He won't remember a thing 'til they start again







That's how it is 'til the end
Yeah

Apocalypse Dreams












This could be the day that we push through,
It could be the day that all our dreams come true,
For me and you,
'Til we're at the end of just another day

Are you too terrified to try your best?
Just to end up with an educated guess,
Like success,
Like those times you wake up mystified








Oh it feels so real in my sleep
Never felt so good, so close I do with you
Until the day this could be feeling
Do you realize that I could feel it.







Everything is changing,
And there's nothing I can do
My world is turning pages
While I am just sitting here

Well, am I getting closer?
Will I ever get there?
Does it even matter?
Do I really need it?
Wish that I'd remember
And I'm on the outcome







(This could be the day that we push through)
Did I really want it?
Does it really matter?
It was only yesterday...
(It could be the day that all our dreams come true)
Didn't even know you...
Now I'm gonna miss you
(Oh it feels so real in my sleep, never felt so good, so close I do)








Nothing ever changes
No matter how long you do your game
It's the same to everyone else
Everything is changing
I guess I should want my love
But she'd just be excited.
