"The Blue Line"
Verse 1:
Waiting for the bus in the pouring rain
No overhang, and I’m soaked to the bone
Waking up like I was in a dream
(Oooh) No sad refrain
And we’re driving through the storm
Chorus:
My worries can’t find me, I’m running to fast
My better-half keeps crying asking
How much time will pass
’Til I’m back in that room with her where
She can hold me tight
No doubt she wants me by her side,
Each and every day and night
Verse 2:
Look angel, It’s my angle
Don’t be ashamed it’s not dangerous
I know we started as strangers
But that’s so far gone, now
You’re famous, and I’m shameless
And I never ask you for favors
But there’s something I want from you,
And there’s some things I got to prove.
With the long run
Gotta get the job done
Need to go out and get some
Water for my soul
Black on black
I’m rollin’ like train tracks
On purpose, yeah
Gotta lot that’s riding on the line
And I don’t need nothin’ from you.
Chorus:
My worries can’t find me
I’m running to fast
My better-half keeps crying asking
How much time will pass
’Til I’m back in that room with her where
She can hold me tight
No doubt she wants me by her side,
Each and every day and night.

No Complaints
Verse 1:
For the record I ain’t called you in a while
For the weekend don’t feel right without you now
For the record we won gar more than we lost
But you don’t hear that from your friends.
Chorus:
I need you though, I need you to know
Baby, don’t go I told you how
I don’t get close
Now you’re alone, I’m staying home
This open road
I should’ve known you would get ghost
I need you though
I need you though, I need you.
Verse 2:
Bouquet of sunflowers for you
Pictures of things you put me through
Necklace from Saks 5th Avenue
I only got the best for you
Got tired of waiting
Our song off the playlist
Shuffled up I hate this
I’m moving on.
Chorus
Post Hook:
We made a lot of promises then threw them in the waste bin
Couldn’t make it past the shit, but hey, it’s just the way it went
So now I keep running up my tab
Wishing that I didn’t want you back.
Chorus

"Same Place"
Verse 1:
Saw you I’m such a fan of you
Knew I couldn’t let it go
I had to move along, move along
I was afraid of it
Saw that we’d fall back together
Part of me stayed where we made love
Not in a rush to clear the table
Hard thing to run away from
When you lose something irreplaceable.
Chorus:
We used to be in the same place, yeah
We used to be
If we had stayed in the same place
Would we still be.
(Go, let it go, let it go now.
Let it go, let it go, let it go.) 2x
Verse 2:
It’s never been easy, baby
But now that I'm leaving, baby
We should let ourselves fall back into old habits
Old ways
Just enough for you
Take some love for you
Now that I’m days from you
Finally some space from you
There’s always a place from you
In the back of mine
Want you back in my….
Chorus

"Before You Go"
Verse 1:
Show me your hardest
Point where your heart is
Show me your cards
And stop being modest
Just tell me you’re honest
Tell me you’re honest
Tell me your problems
I think I can solve ‘em
Baby I’m all in
So deep I could fall in
You a killer
Like you the Loch Ness.
Pre-hook:
Oh where’d you fall from
South of the Gibraltar
Equator‘s getting hotter
Mist over the water
Oh you never bother
If I breathe you like a Marlboro
But I get weak before you go
Just before you go.
Chorus:
Love you right back when you’re doin’ the most
And I try you right back when you’re goin’ ghost
Champagne glass
And we raising a toast
Don’t forget the good times (before you)
Give me everything I’ll take it all
Got a few layers you should take one off
Champagne glass and we raising a toast
Don’t forget the good times before you go.
Verse 2:
Something about you
Been drivin’ me wild
But don’t wanna be obvious
I know that you’re guarded
Been burned it was arson
Before it was started
And I don’t need the options
You’re all that I wanted
Don’t think I can stop it
The room’s getting hotter
Got me surfing, like it’s the tropics
Chorus

"Inner Child"
Verse 1:
Branches swaying in the trees flowers blooming
Greenery hanging all around this room
I can see the street corner from my window
Lookin’ down below
And as I see the world through the foggy lenses of my own detail
And as the daylight wains from my window pane
Wishing you were here.
Pre-chorus:
You treat me like a tool for your pleasure
Like a toy for your inner child
Tell me what you want from me
We could stand any trial.
Chorus:
I used to be a fool now I’m better
Give it to me good never let up
Show me how you move it’ll never
Yell it from the roof like it’s forever.
Verse two:
All them ways
I can turn you on
All you ever asked for
All you’d ever need.
I got that kind of thing for your body
I got that kind of thing for your mind
I do that kind of thing for your body
I do that kind of thing for your mind.
Pre-chorus

"Concrete"
Verse 1:
It took a lot of concrete
A thousand tons of concrete
A different shade of gray for
For all this to grow
All made to someone’s vision
The 13th floor went missing
Is this what we’re all here for
Or made for something more?
Pre-hook:
Sleeping on it
Like a cold day
There’s another piece to all this
Inside coffins made of gold
We’re all just sleeping in
Stuck in a mold that we weren’t made to fit.
Chorus:
We’re losing our way
All but gone
We mix our pain
With two shots in a tall glass
Swerving through lanes
We on the low path
Losing our way
Can’t find a way, way, way back.
Verse two:
Look at all this
These castles made of
Sand that’s smooth and polished
These walls they got us
Feeling so unfamiliar
Crawling up from the bottom of the yard
I wasn’t born as a killer
Still got these tears tattooed.
Pre-hook
Chorus

Verdict

“Verdict”
Verse 1:
Hey friend have you moved on
How will I get there to know, how are you?
Will you pick up if I call you now
How will I know if this call went through?
Hey friend imma move on, with or without me or you
I can’t ignore, I’m going up
And you’re staying under
Well say our goodbyes on the 13th floor.
Verse 2:
Dare I find, that which was always mine
Time that keeps friend’s intertwined
Standing by to board blue lines
Soon the paint dries in the sun and cracks
Then the blossom start to fade
Sooner than the wine drips stain
Damaged youth, self-portraits on the train
Headless lawyers lay and and wait
right until the verdict came
Name your price self-righteous morning star
Debts so great I couldn’t pay
‘less they took my love away
