AMOROUS

CHORUS

How much pain can a heart take

How much hate can a night create

How much weight before I break

A love betrayed in shades of grey

Took my chance and danced with fate

So bless my lips with one more kiss

The consequence can wait

The consequence can wait  

 

VERSE 1

Setting the rules for why you'll leave me

Everything’s not black and white

Who will you really be deceiving 

Hope you're wronged so you'll be right     

What if you try to get even

What if I've got my own reasons

Are you sure you're ready for that     

Cause I’m not ready for that 

 

CHORUS

 

VERSE 2

You wanna know all of my secrets

I'm afraid to let them go

Open me up and see my demons

I won't let you near them though

Do we really stand a chance if

No one's getting second chances

Are you sure we're ready for that

Who could be ready for that     

 

BRIDGE

I hesitated, she contemplated, it’s complicated, so overrated, both left frustrated, we almost made it

Now I just wish I really knew what we’re both suppose to do left alone with nothing but the truth

 

SOLO

So bless my lips, with one more kiss, The consequence can wait

So bless my lips, with one more kiss, The consequence can wait


ADDICTION

VERSE 1

I left the last lane that kept me on track

And forgot any thought that’d bring me to turn back

Pay no mind to reminders that I have from the past

The road less traveled looks like the right path

It’s narrow with no curves or forks to choose

Maybe a few steep hills but I’ve got nothing to lose

I got lost tracing trees divots and grooves

Until the sun stripped the sky of all its blues

 

CHORUS

Sun follows rain,

But I’m still under the weather

Grow from the pain,

And I don’t feel any better

Don’t be afraid,

And I pray my mistakes won’t haunt forever

So I self-medicate, spend my days in daze

Just to keep it together,

Just to keep it to-

 

VERSE 2

The blacktop was worn and covered in cracks

Littered with cigarette butts and ash

Nobody seemed to keep the streets clean

Not a single soul here to hear me if I scream

Struggling to stand steady with scraped knees

Getting pushed off the wagon from any light breeze

Clutching crutches to be stable makes it easy to grieve

But every step farther is just harder to leave

 

CHORUS

 

BRIDGE

Blindly following a melody, I knew

Every flat half step somehow I’d stumble through

Lighted only by the streetlamps and the moon

I never noticed all the notes were out of tune

 

CHORUS

AMBIVALENT

CHORUS

Will I ever say I love you again

I don’t know if there’s a way to put my faith in a friend

Am I really all alone or just too old to pretend

Cause the bridges I built…

 

VERSE 1

I’m happy that they’re gone

But I wanted them to stay

Wading through and moving on

I learned a lot along the way

F orget all my regrets

For thinking people really change

Now knowing our forevers 

Couldn’t ever be the same

The words that hurt the worst

Are words I never got to say

 

CHORUS

Will I ever say I love you again

I don’t know if there’s a way to put my faith in a friend

Am I really all alone or just too old to pretend

Cause the bridges I built never burned from my end

 

VERSE 2

When you’re falling out of love

Nothing’s harder than the ground

And the pain of getting up    

When there’s no one else around

Screaming always seeming

Like you never made a sound

In turn you finally learn

Who you can trust to let you down

Picking up the pieces

Of who (you) lost and what you’ve found

 

CHORUS

 

BRIDGE

Relieved to finally leave all my regrets of me and you

I’ve never hated love so much for what it put me through

Ambivalent about a heart and what it makes
