S.O.S.

how did you not receive the message yet?
i must need to send a telegraph
dashes and dots gave way to bits and bytes
it's still the same just a different size
escapes the naked eye
nothing left to do
nothing left to lose
i still can't get through
how did you not get what i sent before?
i must resort to learning semaphore
with a white flag i flail my hands around
you think i'm waving as i drown
so no i'm not around
nothing left to do
nothing left to lose
nothing left to do
i'm not getting through

i'm coming home and you are not
i guess i'll go to my room to rot
but wait, hold on, that empty spot
there's something there in the garage
the car is blue!
with jealousy, my glare was at
the ones who had the things i lacked
but watch out now, i'm coming back
looks like it's time to take a lap
guess it's going down
wait, who's that you've found?
oh well, guess i'll see you around
i'm coming home, and you are not
i guess i'll go to my room to rot
but wait, hold on, i'll fill that spot
it's time to show off what i got!

Ought to Know
02:08
|

when i left your basement
i never planned ahead enough to
find a good replacement
and a place to dump my stuff to
you tried to tell me it was true
tell me some new place to go
you're telling me i ought to know
it's taken me a while
to see just what life is all about
i know the years all pile
i know the funds i stuffed are running out
now, can't admit that i'm about to drown

What Comes Next
03:11
|

the nights are just passing us by
like any day we could die
but the old say we're young
check ID's
check my jeans for my keys
been at it since we were teens
but haven't learned to have fun
do your best friends know how you talk about them?
does her boyfriend know that all we did was we slept?
let your girlfriend know when the night is a mess
i'll just watch the show cause i know what comes next
another fight cause you're both in the right
i used to try to be light
but now my view is dim
to cut through we really need something new
but they won't listen to you
and you won't listen to them
getting wasted!
do your best friends know how you talk about them?
does her boyfriend know we never even had sex
let your girlfriend go when the night is a mess
i'll just watch the show cause i know what comes next

the methodists are coming!
they come from far and nigh!
the methodists are coming!
from continents they fly!
there's really not much time!
i hope they change their minds!
there's really not much time!
i hope they change there

they flew in crossing every sea
to decide who had the right to freely be
everyone's watching through their screen
to shake their heads and plan their exits from the scene
and we've been waiting on and on
to find a place where we belong
and we've been waiting on and on
now look at where the time has gone
they came proclaiming "no more guilt"
and to vet who they'd let in the walls they built
a few stood silent in protest
they said to keep it down, stop making such a mess
and we've been waiting on and on
to find a place where we belong
and we've been waiting on and on
now look at where the time has gone

Over
02:15
|

i had gotten over you
now i've forgotten what to do
my feelings are not through
took a year to let you go
my heart beating hasn't slowed
still want you for my own
all my friends are now your friends
i won't tell to none of them
never change the way we are
both of us have gone so far
i had gotten over you
now i've forgotten what to do
my feelings are not through

The New Sound
01:42
|

if we could just pretend nothing ever went down
then that'd be great
but i lost and you won
you hold all the power anyway
you pat my head and said that things would get better
when you're to blame
how can i go where i used to now that i know that everything's changed?
much has happened since you been out
they've already found the new sound
take the place of what we put down
they've already found the new sound

I Can't Fall For You
03:33
|

a summer kiss
so check that off the list
of things i fear i might be missing
my phone buzz
my instinct is to run
and hold tight to time that i'm not giving
cause i can't fall for you
the way that i used to
i can't fall for you
it's not something i do anymore but lately i've been bored
all my friends
with story's happy ends
i don't know why i keep on reading
turn love divine
to a fight for what is mine
it's my own voice that keeps repeating
that i can't fall for you....
your tiny frame
packs a lot of flames
but i fear burning more than freezing
i pull away
just as you want to play
and it's my fault that you are leaving

Love Against Hate
04:28
|
|||
i'm tired of the waste
and all the little pay
a living i can't scrape
and dream to run away
but if i don't just fade
i'm really just afraid
i'll burn out in a blaze
of embers hiding rage
my shoulders start to tense
my brow begins to sweat
drowning for a breath
the flood inside my head
the world begins to spin
faster than it is
i ought to reach for help
but instead i make a fist
as the signals start to blur
i see another world
no more suffer undeserved
the perpetrators hurt
make it to the top
throw the man to the ground
as he falls his money flies
to the ones he's keeping down!
hey, what you keep saying
start to sound crazy
but the world's gone mad
for better or worse (heaven and hell)
go hand in hand
the things i've always dreamed
and the thoughts i've always had
if somehow we escape
to find a better place
i hope it's not the war
that everybody claims
as i look out to the shore
from my six figure ride
who'd i have to run down
to take what is now mine
the desert holds a bar
the sky is crimson ink
a woman turns around
to order the same drink
the jekyll to my hyde
the bonnie to my clyde
we kick a barricade
and they won't take us alive!
i will hold you tight
and keep you close
until the ride is over
or at least tonight
i just need a place
no force for change
but an invitation
to love against hate
