for you to chew

from anyone who could possibly see right through you

SOMEHOW WE GET THERE

Well I'm searching for somethin'
That I can't reach
So I whisper your name
In my sleep
N' time it isn't giving me
The space that I need
But you know at this pace
I don't think
I can
Pull into the lead
Forgiving myself is too simple too hard
There's got to be another way
To stop this car
But you know
Somehow we get there
Through the blind night
We got the while lines flashing past the tip of our headlights
Somehow we get there
From whatever we are
Somehow we get there
No matter how far
'Cause I can't
Carry this around anymore
It's getting heavier with age
It is the boulder in my stomach
It's the avalanche in my veins
So let's leave it behind
I want to bury it beside the road
I will sit there until it comes out of me
I'll be freezing in the summer desert cold
But you know
Somehow we get there
Through the blind night
We got the white lines flashing past the tips of our head lights
Somehow we get there
From wherever we are
Somehow we get there
No matter how far
So hold my head
While I rock
Myself back to sleep
And I tell you that I am not easy
And you tell me that I am
Sweet

STAND STILL

Seems my words have gone down
with the bottle
and my fear is my only defense
stand still behind a wall of anger
stand still yeah, but i'm still by myself

you can't tell your heart how to feel
you can only get out of the way

and it seems as though
my pride has wandered
yeah, and my voice is false
so now i'm left here wondering
who it was that i thought i was being
when i was being myself

but you can't tell your heart
how to feel
you can only get out of the way

so now my love
she's turned a corner
and i'm stuck at a train
and it seems as though
my god has got a plan for me
but it's different from the plan
that i've made

you can't tell your heart
how to feel
you can only get out of the way
you can't tell your heart
how to feel
you can only get out of the way
get out of the way

STREET LIGHT

What did you say?
What ever I want
This is so easy
This love in my life
But this isn't real
We're just making it up
Over and over guilty
Is what I hear in my head

You are in fear
And I'm in a bubble
We stay together
Cause we're always apart
But I'm getting good
At balancing trouble
And you're getting good
At looking like
You want to take me back

So dress me up
Take me out to dinner
And I will stare at my plate all night
Lay me down
Tie me to your bedpost
And I will pretend
This is what I like
But don't you dare
Start seeing someone else
Or I will come
Stand outside your house
See me there
I'm underneath the streetlight

Satisfied no
With love when I'm in it
The smaller the hill
The more I want to push it
The closer to the truth you get
The more I want to disprove you

So dress me up
And take me out to dinner
And I will stare at my plate all night
Lay me down
Tie me to your bedpost
And I will pretend
This is what I like

But don't you dare
Start seeing someone else
Or I will come
Stand outside your house
See me there
I'm underneath the streetlight

So what did you say
Whatever I want
Maybe that's the problem

STUCK

waiting for the rain to start
looking at the sky
trying to find some sympathy i can't seem to find
inside
and i'm trying not to think of you
and ways we used to be
but i keep flashing in on your jawline
to tell you the truth, honey, i'd like to kick you out
of me

but i'm stuck here
waiting for the shoe to drop
yeah waiting for the phone to ring
to someone to need me again
yeah i'm stuck here
waiting for the paint to dry
waiting on the love of my life
come on and need me again

yeah i thought all the growing was over
i'd hit some kind of stride
then i put my guard down
and you all came and hit me from behind
hit me from behind

and you think i would have learned all this
the first time around
pushing only busts stuff
lying makes me feel obnoxious
baby you're clearly still no good for me at all
you're no damn good for me
i said you're no damn good for me

but i'm stuck here
waiting for the shoe to drop
yeah waiting for the phone to ring
to someone to need me again
yeah i'm stuck here
waiting for the paint to dry
everybody look at folksinger waiting on the love of her
life
come on and need me again
So rest eludes me
Now I'm back where I've already been
waiting for the rain to start
looking at the sky

TAKE ME ALL

I've got an idea
I got it in my hand
N' I'm gonna turn it around
Throw it up and down
'Cause it's an idea
It's gonna make you move
Closer
It's gonna make you wonder
Why you have waited so long
To take me all
All until I fall
Take me all
All until I fall
Until I fall in love
Until I fall in love
You have got this edge
You've got it in your heart
N' my idea is to walk it
I will walk you like a plank
Like a prophet
Take me all
All until I fall
Take me all
All until I fall
Until I fall in love
Until I fall in love
Until I fall in love
Well, I'm falling ... Yeah Yeah ...
Well, I'm falling ... Yeah Yeah ...
Take me all
All until I fall
Take me all
All until I fall
Take me all
All until I fall
Take me all
All until I fall
Until I fall in love
Until I fall in love

TAKEN A LIKING

my table is cracked
yeah and wrinkles run deep
and water it flows through it
like a passage way

but i heard you've taken a liking to it
you've taken a liking to it
and i told you that it's free

cuz my shoe is ripped yeah
it's soul doesn't exist
but rocks they take shelter in them like
old loneliness

and i heard you've taken a liking to them
you've taken a liking to them
and i told you that they're free

yeah but your heart is whole
your beat, your beat is steady
and i want to run through you
like a passage way
and i guess I've taken a liking to you
I've taken a liking to you
and you tell me you're not free

cuz my table is cracked
and the wrinkles i've got run deep
and water it flows through me
like a passage way
and i've heard you've taken a liking to me
you've taken a liking to me
guess that's okay with me
it's okay, it's okay
yeah, i guess that would be alright with me

TEN FRIENDS

Well I've got ten friends
N' a run down car
I've got three old lovers
That I left at the bar
N' I've got two pairs of shoes
N' five pairs of jeans
Am I getting through
I think I'm falling in love with you
What a life

What a buzz
What a ride
Do you wanna jump inside
There's room for two
There is room
Well I've got ten friends

Millions of stars

THE MEANING OF LOVE

This world is not ours
As much as we'd like it to be
It is someone else's
Something bigger
Bigger than you and me
But it's brought us together
Today
So we should take this thing we got baby
For everything
Everything it has to say
N' make it good
Make it happen
Hold the hand of love
Make it perfect
For just a moment
'Cause that's the meaning
That's the meaning of love
This world is not ours
As much as we'd like it to be
It is someone else's
Something bigger
Bigger than you and me
It makes you
Makes you whisper when no one's around
Makes you feel lost
But you got to put your feet
Got to put them back on the ground
N' make it good
Make it happen
Hold the hand of love
Make it perfect
For just a moment
'Cause that's the meaning
N' make it good
Make it happen
Hold the hand of love
Make it perfect
For just a moment
'Cause that's the meaning
That's the meaning
That's the meaning of love

THE OTHER SIDE

Like electricity scattered
Hey I don't know what I want
To have come this far
To just go back again
To have been loved so much
To actually want to love again

But I forget to ask myself
Hey what do I want to do?
I forget to check in
See the devil's got my hand
And I've been out here wandering this whole time
Pretending I've got me a grand plan
But I told you

I don't know
What I'm doing
It's like I'm drifting out
The current's got my body
But I'm too tired to swim or shout
But I can see you waving
At the shoreline
You're calling me home
But the biggest part of me
Knows that I need to be out here alone and I'm
Floating out here
Waiting for the moon to push the tide
Floating out here waiting for the ocean to carry me
To the other side
Get me to the other side

And I'm forcing inspiration
Out of fear I'll never write again
But I'm out here giving away
More than my body can
Bluffing the whole table
Holding me a pair of threes

I'm dreaming drinking will fix me
Thinking sleeping with you is gonna free me
That my smoking won't kill me
And in the meantime
Look at life out there happening

Cause I don't know
What I'm doing
It's like I'm just drifting out
The current has got my body
But I'm too tired to swim or shout
But I can see you waving
At the shoreline
You're calling me home
But the biggest part of me
Knows that I need to be out here alone
Floating out here
Waiting for the moon to push the tide
Floating out here
Waiting for the ocean to carry me
To the other side
Get me to the other side

Floating out here
Waiting for the moon to push the tide Come on and carry
me
To the other side get me to the other side
