Stick Around 04:06
Stick Around I don't need no one to tell me That it all just trails away When it all goes down All the stars and sky will see Everything will come together If you just stick around It can’t be much better over there Just come back down All the things that lay before us Get tossed and turned to grey In the neighborhoods That have seen us come and go But everything will come together If you just stick it out It can’t be much better over there Just come back to our side Can’t wait in a wishing well When will you move the pawn? When will you come alive? You know that I won’t wait For you to cross the line at all When will you move the pawn? When will you come alive? You know that I won’t wait For you to cross the line So choose a side

Cinnamon 04:02
Cinnamon When you mark us You never get the coding right Just words, you’re not worth enough To stop what makes us fight Small town, fake gun You make this feel like such a drag Step back, we’ll win And watch the burn set in before we bail Cry it out You get through to the ones Who have nobody else Lay low, they’ll see you The ones you called young will pass you up Till you’re gone What do you see When the walls are torn Down to your feet? And even when we’re gone Our world is spinning fast Nobody knows when the sun Will burn out black And they don’t care We'll just do what we want All we need is just one more breath And even when we’re gone Our world is spinning fast Nobody knows when the sun Will burn out black And no one cares We’ll just go where we want And run this to the end You say that it’s too hard And try to kick us out You tell all lies And you take all that we give But we don’t care You’re not a big deal Just quit these games, we know them anyway Don’t let this sit And don’t ever close your eyes

If I Could be Giant We were just like aeroplanes Vast skies Where we collide and fade away The world was not big enough Our minds, broken cameras And young guys who fight You said your deepest fears and I sang Not even He could see where we move I’ll say nothing to you It could be the greatest dance Make quakes, taking steps And grabbing stars I would take you in my grip Don’t let go Until the shaking finally stops We watch the city lights and I pray This will be ending soon, me and you I’ll say nothing to you

Changing For the Weather (Feat. Jordan Kyle Sirven) I’ve been getting used to the whole Dressing for the weather thing Breaking corporate boundaries Is starting to just be another thing Let’s tackle the tough issues Polite jokes and cheap tissues Saving time for emancipation Free from this earth and cheap vacations Ask all us to the table to check Now you see Tell me now What’s this malice that you think we breed? What you see in those movies, it ain’t real And you’re just sucking up to your own hell I think I’m starting to feel a little overwhelmed Gotta Self-Generated Crises bubbling at the helm The delivery guy is waiting at the door What's the tip? What’s the percentage? Was I rude the way I shut the door? Let’s tackle the tough issues Organic Love letters And the common breakthroughs Saving the planet from bad vibrations Let’s tackle the tough issues Polite jokes and cheap tissues Saving time for emancipation Free from this earth and cheap vacations Ask all us to the table to check Now you see Tell me now What’s this malice that you think we breed? What you see in those movies, it ain’t real And you’re just sucking up to your own hell   I got a grudge Just like the tool song Except it’s not 8 minutes long

Doe 03:49
Doe Secret nights Doesn’t make any sense to me Wrong in us All we needed was us Peel your shell I can see what’s left inside Many nights You need to know it all eventually All I see What you mean to me Solo hearts It’s a shame that they’ll never meet Our highways All the bridges left to cross Can we be? Can this be real? Many nights I need to show it all eventually All I see What you mean to me Secret nights It never made any sense to me Many nights I know we’ll make it there eventually
