Never Enough 03:16
Can’t give you the world you wanted Or make all the changes you wanna’ see I still have my mind set strong, you’re the same We both have a hard head Another fight exhausted Every night, every night it gets harder to sleep Thoughts are screaming in my head I can’t get em’ out, get em’ out Woke up just soaking in sweat This was more than another bad dream Pick up the pieces that don’t seem to fit like before Give it my best just to watch you take more than I can give Than I can give Had me right where you wanted That’s the place you want me to stay Where I never see what you’re thinking Another guessing game I can’t figure where to begin While we’re both being honest You’re not down to earth, least down as me It’s impossible to please Someone who wants the whole world at their feet A World that I’m ready to leave Pick up the pieces that don’t seem to fit like before Give it my best just to watch you take more than I can give Than I can give

Laughing at the same old movies I’ve seen a thousand times Another shitty conversation Plays over in my mind, plays over in my mind It’s so hard to stay entertained And everybody looks the same Blankly stare down at my feet again Standing in the same place Standing in the same place Once again I’ll sit inside my room I’m an uninspired Sunday Afternoon One more week and I’m not leaving Just wake me up its Friday evening Driving down that same old highway I remember when it used to excite me Made this trip too many times Just an old and familiar site of our lives I’m fading, I’m failing the person I wanted to be Once again I’ll sit inside my room I’m an uninspired Sunday Afternoon One more week and I’m not leaving Just wake me up its Friday evening And yesterday I thought I was 18 I thought it was summer and you were right beside me Under that August sun But now that time has gone It felt like we’d be young forever

West Bound 02:45
Was the new guy in the work place You were the first friend I made I was so shy in those days I can’t believe how much has changed All grow up so fast but I won’t forget the days that we slept in We both called in sick They were down two workers on a Saturday shift Does your Grandma still hate me? Is your Aunt still calling me lazy? You were nothing like they were It wasn’t in your blood and it wasn’t in your nature Was far from cold I moved to the city now but... How’s life on the coast? Did you get that, did you get that Did you get that job you always wanted? Would you go back, Would you go back Go back to the town that you said was haunted? We used to dream about running away I guess you finally did The world seems so much smaller when You’re just a couple kids Does the grass grow any greener? I heard that the air there’s cleaner We both grew up in a farm town You know I learned to love but I never learned to calm down I still got the same bad habits that I never quit Got older, I’m still lost Hope that one of us has figured out their shit Cuz’ you don’t know, cuz’ you don’t know Cuz’ you don’t know about all the trouble I’m in If I told you, if I told you I’m afraid I wouldn’t even know where to begin Time is the destruction of everything Came to kill it all but I held on to the memories Do you miss it baby? Do you miss it dear? Have you heard what’s changed in seven years?

October 03:32
We drank and we laughed and we spoke You borrowed my sweater that still smelt of smoke Spilled beer and weed and cigarettes Told you all about my life down on the edge C’mon take a walk To the wild side of town Spend a lot of time there I’ll show you all around Believe me my dear I’m not going anywhere Anywhere but here Feel the ground beneath our feet Hear the sound of the city streets I’ve never felt so tall Feel the ground beneath our feet Hear the sound of the autumn leafs Summers over And I don’t wanna’ fall The hours passed by in a flash We’ve both told our lies and we both have a past I wanted to be someone you could trust Gve it my best was it ever enough? Try to be the man That catches every slip I always try to stand But god-damn this life’s a trip If you need me my dear I’m not going anywhere Anywhere but here Feel the ground beneath our feet Hear the sound of the city streets I’ve never felt so tall Feel the ground beneath our feet Hear the sound of the autumn leafs Summers over And I don’t wanna’ fall

If I could go back I would go back to when you and I were chasing signs And I would speak to you in lullaby’s If I could go back We’d chase each other down the halls And wouldn’t stop until your eyes whispered it’s bed time I held your hand while you cried at night Your dad didn’t help and your momma left Left you all behind Can’t go back, can’t go back to the old days Can’t go back, can’t go back to the old days When I put myself Back where we used to be I think of how much older You would look to me All your favorite stories I taught you how to read And your dad the doctor couldn’t give you what you need I held your hand while you cried at night Your dad didn’t help and your momma left Left you all behind Can’t go back, can’t go back to the old days Can’t go back, can’t go back to the old days When you’re out on your own and you’re growin’ up I hope they don’t hold you down, I hope they’re bringin’ you up When you’re out on your own and you’re growin’ up I hope they don’t hold you down, I hope they’re bringin’ you up Can’t go back, can’t go back to the old days Can’t go back, can’t go back to the old days

Daysted Ways 03:52
Where’s the progress? Where’s the progress? A year goes by, haven’t crossed a thing off your list All talkers, I’m just a talker Who’s talking his way out of a mess Always wanted, always wanted To push myself further than I do But I’m still here, six more beers Never bit off more than I could chew Take backs and wasted days There’s nothing breaking, nothing breaking us free Do what I must but I had much bigger plans Back when we used to believe And the kids on our street had the biggest of dreams The world shuts them down every time Used to aim for the stars Now we’re passed out at the bar Show me what it means to be alive One time we’ll get it right Getting so tired, getting so tired Of working so hard for someone that can never be pleased Get so fired, I get so fired When people don’t see the same things that are crystal to me I’m running out, I’m running out Of patience the end of the line It’s all coming out, it’s all coming out Everything I’ve built up inside Take backs and wasted days There’s nothing breaking, nothing breaking us free Do what I must but I had much bigger plans Back when we used to believe And the kids on our street had the biggest of dreams The world shuts them down every time Used to aim for the stars Now we’re passed out at the bar Show me what it means to be alive One time we’ll get it right

Don’t wait too long Do go and do the things you want What’s dragging you down? Is it the people around? Who act like they have all the answers The know-it-all’s Who love to watch you fall No one understands They don’t give you a hand But you never let that keep you down When you’re all alone Tonight, tonight If the worlds bringing you down I hope you win the fight Tonight, tonight When the worlds getting too loud And the city shines too bright Tonight, tonight I used to know you well You always said that time would tell Who you keep in your life But remember those nights We could of sworn they’d go on forever And baby girl You were much too young It had been so long Still remember that song Remember your words and favourite lyrics And melody Tonight, tonight If the worlds bringing you down I hope you win the fight Tonight, tonight When the worlds getting too loud And the city shines too bright Tonight, tonight

Best Of Luck 03:30
Lay awake and you can’t stop thinking If you made the right moves Wrong decision in the long run Can’t always run from your problems They’ll catch up to you Said one day you’re gonna regret it Running away Trying not sweat it Was it worth what I’ve given up? Wish each other the best of luck And you know you’re gonna miss her sometimes You’re gonna miss the look in her eyes When you’re sitting alone and it’s all on you That’s when you start wishing you’d have seen things through So now you’re drinking tonight You try to stop the thinking tonight When you’re sitting alone and it’s all on you Can’t stop thinking ‘what the hell did I do?’ I won’t be coming back to you Remember that Saturday? With the fire works, when nothing hurt? And it felt like things would never change? Like it was yesterday What we used to feel, was it ever real? Where would we be if I’d had stayed? You know that I hate when a movie Or storybook has a sad end So I hate how I’m ending this story And I’m the one who put down the pen And you know you’re gonna miss her sometimes You’re gonna miss the look in her eyes When you’re sitting alone and it’s all on you That’s when you start wishing you’d have seen things through So now you’re drinking tonight You try to stop the thinking tonight When you’re sitting alone and it’s all on you Can’t stop thinking ‘what the hell did I do?’

We can’t give up A second of our time And nobody likes to stand in a line Racing and chasing the things we don’t need Bar for satisfaction is out of our reach Show me the cost on something real Show me what it’s like, what it’s like to feel You could buy out the bar You could buy out the town Drive the fanciest cars Like a king with his crown But you won’t know when to stop Cuz’ you don’t know what you want The world is fucked We look out for ourselves We won’t care till’ this world starts to melt All doing good and we’re all going green Click to save the world from in front of a screen It won’t make a difference When nobody wants to listen Protest in peace with your signs crying out Marching in the streets watching Cali’ dry out It won’t make a difference We all have our own commitments Here we all stand think we’re making a change But change won’t come if we’re stuck in our ways Show me the cost on something real Show me what it’s like, what it’s like to feel You could buy out the bar You could buy out the town Drive the fanciest cars Like a king with his crown But you won’t know when to stop Cuz’ you don’t know what you want

The Edge 02:30
I’ll show you what it’s like down on the edge Every moves just another chance Show you what it’s like to take the risk One false move now you’re standing in shit Have you been here before? Met people like me? I’m not the only one with these dirty feet When you start to fall down You carry yourself Until you stand back on Steady ground Can’t hold it down Till’ we’re back on steady ground Can’t hold it down Can’t hold it down Can’t hold it down Till’ we’re back on steady ground Playing with fire just to learn How close I can get till’ I feel the burn Walk on the edge just to know My own limitations how far I can go But we take this too far I’m alone in my car It’s 4 in the morning and I haven’t slept The wait of it all One time starts to fall And I find myself On steady ground Can’t hold it down Till’ we’re back on steady ground Can’t hold it down Can’t hold it down Can’t hold it down Till’ we’re back on steady ground

Back Roads 03:29
Let’s take all the back roads I know all the ways home From all of those nights we shouldn’t of drove Always felt safe cuz’ we weren’t alone Even younger those summers Walked the whole town Talked about girls how this place brings us down We were just kids, we were best friends Time it felt nothing could come between that Or anything... We watch as the time slips by Memories they start to dissappear Trying to hold on to the old days But that gets harder every year People change and they leave And we do our own thing Take me back to that place We used to be kings Do you remember what it’s like? When we used to be kings... Kings of the night I’ve made so many bad calls I’ve hit so many brick walls I look back at everything we ever did Not sure I’d take back a second of it I’ll drive by the buildings and towers we climbed There’s a park down the street where the kids all get high They sit at a table where we carved our names How many years till’ that wind wears that wood Away... I could tell you all the stories They’d all come out like a poem Lets trade our guts for glory baby When we finally made it home We had a back up excuse for each question We thought we could have possibly been asked When the world keeps pressing and pressing Oh no not us we wouldn’t crack Oh no not us we wouldn’t crack We watch as the time slips by Memories they start to dissappear Trying to hold on to the old days But that gets harder every year People change and they leave And we do our own thing Take me back to that place We used to be kings Do you remember what it’s like? When we used to be kings... Kings of the night
