Broken Bridge
03:17

|
I was stuck down in the country
Hurtin' to get back to the good ole' city
Couldn't get my chords down or lyrics right
I had to strap on tight for a mysterious night
Not so far away, but free from the twister
I came across a star, she said
"Oh mister, now this is where you are, it's where you should be"
I've been told before but still can't comprehend
Wish I could see myself in 10 years
I take that back, I wish I could see
Myself 10 years ago
Maybe take off 10 years worth a heavy load
Beyond that broken bridge there lies a road
It's where we're bound to go
I heard from the bells of Achilles Vampires are waltzing down the stairs
I couldn't care less if they're coming for me
I came for what I came for and they're gonna give it back
That broken bridge I was talking about
It was made for Hercules, no doubt
Am I aware of what I can't control
Beyond that broken bridge there lies a road
That's where we're bound to go
Beyond that bridge lies a road
That's where we're bound to go
Where it leads, we don't know

Serenity
I can't be loved by everyone I choose
A calamity
Now the family's on the loose
Was she ever a fan, heading out to sand
I was left confused
And nobody can stand changing of the plans
Now everybody feels used
Epiphany
So I see how it is
Oh, you're taking me
And it's no coincidence
Did they receive some type of sign
Or were they just lookin for a new hobby
Now they’ve built a shrine
Some type of pride they carried when they caught me
We're so tired of losing friends
They're sailing away, without notice
We didn’t know we were getting kicked off our boat
Not a single sign they were throwing us into the cold
How could we know if they did not tell us so,
How could we know?
Epiphany
So I see how it is
Oh, you're taking me
And it's no coincidence
Did you receive some type of sign
Or were you just lookin for a new hobby, oh
Now you've built a shrine
Some type of pride you carried when you caught me
We're so tired of losing friends
They're sailing away, without notice, no

Migration
03:01
|
|||
|
As we arrive, we’re greeted at the door, we say hello
That’s when I noticed your excitement descend
In the dance hall, you’ve got your back against the wall, pretending that you can’t comprehend why anybody came here for
It’s a migration, my love
It’s a migration that they wanna feel
Some sort of connection that’s real
So why would you wanna stay alone
The crowd has gone, the lights have dimmed and now you’re by yourself
Can’t help but linger on the way that it felt
When you thought you’d never find yourself alone again
And if that’s true, that depends
Maybe it’s time for a vacation
To the migration, my love
It’s a migration that they wanna feel
Some sort of connection that’s real
So why would you wanna stay alone
Too long you’ve been sitting on your own
I go out and meet people, sometimes I make friends
‘Cause I could meet somebody that I’ll never forget
Forget hesitation when you want relation
In the migration of love
A migration that they want to feel
Some sort of connection that’s real
So why would you wanna stay alone
Too long you’ve been sitting on your own

An Afterthought
02:22
|
|||
|
I don't have time to be misled
Suddenly you've come to reach me
Telling me what I should think
Would you stop wearing down my faith
You say you know everything 'cause you see it right on my face
And I'm supposed to relate
Just because you wear it on your sleeve each day
It takes a lot of gall
To try out your tricks on me
Like it's nothing at all
You're staring straight ahead
I couldn't help but laugh
You left all your bags on top of your cab as you left
With papers all over the street
And you're not running after them
You'll reach your destination
While claiming it was good intention
Can't complain about all the thieves in the street
Hell, I'm barely standing on my own
If you're saying all hearts are bound to break
All brains are bound to ache
What's the point that you're trying to make
Is it sometimes we have to wait
Oh, but wouldn't you like to be
Sunk in that seat forever
Wouldn't you like to be
Sunk in that seat forever
I don't have time to be misled
Suddenly you've come to reach me
And you'll be back around again
You'll tell me you're my friend
Hopefully I can tell by the vibes you send
Though I've been taken before
I don't have anymore words for you

Jokes
02:40
|

|
I'm sensing a vision
It's within my grasp
So why can't I reach it
It flys by so fast
It's not the type of problem where I can ask for help
This one I gotta do myself, oh well
Not to mention, I'm surrounded by fog
And the lights keep flickering off
Did you want honesty or at least something more clear
Can I make up anything to find it's something else you hear
Never mind the messages you take
I can't be concerned about what's considered fake
I just wanna come up with some jokes
I'm scavenging for material
I'm just a comic with jokes in my pocket
While they're staring at me
If I keep the rule in mind
It's in the rhythm and in the time
Maybe I can keep them laughing
Behind the curtains, I practice impressions
As they're seating the sections
And whether the heads show up or not
these are the jokes I've got
And I might wander off into a story
You might find my routine kinda corny
I'm just a comic with jokes in my pocket
While they're staring at me
If I keep the rule in mind
It's in the rhythm and in the time
Maybe I can keep 'em laughing
If I run out of things to say
Just continue to stare as if nobody's there
But don't catch my sweat, I'll pretend to not care
Will I take the loss and try out another day
Hope you think I'm funny

Admit It
03:21

There was a beauty
I loved her a lot
We caught our footing
Then leaped off the charts
She gave an answer
That I never caught
Was all she could be
Did I let her know
Before she let go
It was so easy
Let's continue the show
Then I got lazy
I should've fixed out that stove
There was a TV
Now watch me corrode
The rooms were hazy
From all of the smoke
Admit it
I fucked up again
You can't deny it
I just can't pretend
There's no good reason
Now the message is sent
Not blaming you, friend
'Cause that's a dead end
You meet a stranger
You get along well
You buy the house then
You put it for sale
And all the clichés
I never thought that I'd miss
That's not the point, Joe
You don't know what cliché is
When you asked how come
I can't understand
I live and learn, then
It's back to the van
There's always lessons
When they don't seem to stick
The same old monster
Comes back at you quick
Admit it
I fucked up again
You can't deny it
I just can't pretend
There's no good reason
Now the message is sent
Not blaming you, friend
'Cause that's a dead end
Just admit it
I fucked up again
You can't deny it
I just can't pretend
There's no good reason
Now the message is sent
Not blaming you, friend
'Cause that's a dead end
The message is sent
