Wrecking Ball
02:49
|
|||
I build a wall too high to climb
It’s paved in stone my heart designed
But I carved your name on every side
You’re a wrecking ball to my tender heart
You’re a wrecking ball to my tender heart
You’re a wrecking ball to my tender heart
You tear it down piece by piece
Bring me down to my knees
I leave a light on so you’ll notice
I know inside that I’m broken
Hearted, leaving crumbs that you won’t see
You’re a wrecking ball to my tender heart
You’re a wrecking ball to my tender heart
You’re a wrecking ball to my tender heart
You tear it down piece by piece
Bring me down to my knees
Tear it down piece by piece
Bring me down to my knees
Tear it down piece by piece
Bring me down to my knees
Tear it down piece by piece
Bring me down to my knees
You’re a wrecking ball to my tender heart

I Don't Miss You At All
03:58
|
|||
I don’t miss you at all
Not even a little tiny bit
I don’t miss it when you call my name
So you can tell me all the lines that you have written
No, I don’t miss you at all
Not even a little tiny bit
And if you stand beneath my wall
Then a stone just might come fallin’
You’re gonna lose your head
Leave me be, don’t remind me what we had
Oh, I never loved you anyway
Lose my number, mistake me for another
Oh, I’ve gone and put you in your grave
Maybe my decision’s wrong, dear
Or maybe it’s the best I’ve ever made
Here’s where truth will make a mark here
Undoing all the lies you ever said
No one wants to be alone now, darlin’
No one wants to leave their years undone
But to choose between myself and that prison that you own
It’s not a choice that I need sleeping on
Leave me be, don’t remind me what we had
Oh, I never loved you anyway
Lose my number, mistake me for another
Oh, I’ve gone and put you in your grave
Oh, don’t go carrying on
You’ve got a dozen on the line
A list as long as the miles to the sun of affections
You won’t miss mine
I’ve gone and put you in your grave
Leave me be, don’t remind me what we had
Oh, I never loved you anyway
Lose my number, mistake me for another
Oh, I’ve gone and put you in your grave

Dragons
04:48
|
|||
If there be dragons beyond this
Daggers upon us
I’ll keep my eyes upon us
You’ll keep me honest
When we see trouble before us
Liars in chorus
We’ll see hope in the darkness
A life left to harness
Burn the ships
We don’t need them
Cause we aren’t going
Back the way we came
Burn the ships
We don’t need them
Cause where we’re going
We’ve got roads to pave
We’ll take the ground that’s before us
Inches and more, just keep
One foot in front of the other
I’ve got you covered
Burn the ships
We don’t need them
Cause we aren’t going
Back the way we came
Burn the ships
We don’t need them
Cause where we’re going
We’ve got roads to pave
One foot, one foot in front of the other
One foot, one foot in front of the other
Burn the ships
We don’t need them
Cause we aren’t going
Back the way we came
Burn the ships
We don’t need them
Cause where we’re going
We’ve got roads to pave

Adventurers We
03:30
|
|||
If you’re loved by anyone
If anyone calls you son
You’d do well to resign yourself
The stars were designed just for you
So give back this heavy load
Cause life is a loan we hold
Darlin’, let’s be adventurers we
Shall see
All my heart for you
Torn apart for you
All my heart for you
Break my skin for you
For too long you’ve followed the cries
Of someone you don’t recognize
So disown all the voices that leave you
Unsteady
All my heart for you
Torn apart for you
All my heart for you
Break my skin for you

The Wagon Told the Wheel
04:00
|
|||
The wagon told the wheel,
“I like the way you roll”
The ankle told the heel
“I think I see your soul”
They understand what I haven’t yet
Steady and sure, I’m only moving slow
The kernel told the corn
“I think I’m stuck on you”
The bottle told the cork
“They’d have to pry me loose from you”
They understand what I haven’t yet
Steady and sure, I’m only moving slow
One day I’ll say it to your face
Without a breath or hesitation
I’ll say it to your face
The words we say alone
Won’t ever see the light
But they’ll be how we make a life
They’ll be how we make a life
Oh, for an honest word to make its way to you
It’s got a lotta mess to get through
If it goes unheard, then I will too
The leaves they told the tree
“I don’t mind the fall”
The flower told the bee
“You can have it all”
And one day I’ll say it to your face
Without a breath or hesitation
I’ll say it to your face
The words we say alone
Won’t ever see the light
But they’ll be how we make a life

The Head and the Heart
05:18
|
|||
The head only knows
What it’s been told
It beats on the chest
To tell it the rest
To make it feel whole
The heart will give all it has
For the chance to get something back
It takes any hand
It breaks on demand
For the chance to be had
Somewhere between
The facts and the dreams
There lives an inkling
Fast and fleeting
All we are is what we’re dying for
The half that can see
Is the half that believes
The other half hopes
The words that it chose are the ones that it needs
I only see
What they’re showing to me
If it’s just a hoax
Entertainers and jokers
Then we’re dying for free
Somewhere between
The facts and the dreams
There lives an inkling
Fast and fleeting
All we are is what we’re dying for
All we are is worth some dying for

End Up Here
03:57
|
|||
I can’t say that we’ll end up rich
But we’ll make a mile out of every inch
And I, I want to be here with you
Oh, darling, we’ll be fine
If the good Lord’s willing and the creek don't rise
As long as I’m here with you
Darlin’, when my looks start goin’
And collectively our minds start slowin’ down
I want to be here with you
So kindly take this skin and bone
There's nothing that's not yours to hold
The heart that bends won’t break until it’s through
I wanna be here with you
If the world’s an oyster, then you’re my pearl
If life gets nuts, we’ll squirrel away and I
I want to be here with you
Oh, a promise is just a word you keep
And it’s the only thing that we’ll ever need
And I, I want to be here with you
Bodies only last so long
So that’s not what I’m counting on
It was never that what made your song so sweet
So kindly take this skin and bone
There's nothing that's not yours to hold
The heart that bends won’t break until it’s through
I wanna be here with you

Minefield
04:18
|
|||
Have you ever considered
The path that a heart takes
The moment a heart breaks in two
It changes the landscape
And makes it a namesake
Forever it carries the name of the one
Love is a minefield
A perfectly fine feeling
That turns on a dime, sealing
The fate of two
The earth becomes mute
Silence pays tribute
Trees become soldiers
Lovesick turns sober
Gravity comforts
A heart that’s outnumbered
The head is a drunkard
Silence is thunder
Have you ever considered
What remarkable hearts can do
After a war is through with it
It bargains the bad for good
And staining the ground it stood
It bleeds for the wound it could not take
I left a limb here
Buried a friend here
I can’t ever get it back
But still there’s a beat
A flicker of heat
A scar to remind us
Of what’s left behind
Love is a minefield
A perfectly fine feeling
That turns on a dime, sealing
The fate of two

Ghost
03:20
|
|||
Our bones have been cracking
Under the weight of the chances lost
And tattooed in black ink
Across all our faces the loves that we’ve lost, oh
You dance with a ghost
Don’t let the doubt lead, don’t let the doubt lead you
Nobody knows and I can’t forget the things I hear
When my eyes are closed
And I should be dreaming of you, my dear, oh
But I dream of a ghost
Don’t let the doubt lead, don’t let the doubt lead you
Don’t let the doubt lead, don’t let the doubt lead you
Don’t let the doubt lead, don’t let the doubt lead you
Don’t let the doubt lead, don’t let the doubt lead you
Don’t be afraid of beauty or terror, neither can take
The credit for ending what they never made
Hold onto hope
We’re more than ghosts

Home
03:34
|
|||
I am a long lost son
Hoping you left me something to live on
If only the hem of your shirt
If only a small piece of dirt to begin from
But I shouldn’t have anything to show for who I’ve been
But somehow it seems you have taken me in
And you are home
I am a wayfaring soul
Bearing the weight of the world on my shoulders
Happy to be an unknown
Happy to be just a wandering soldier
But I shouldn’t have anything to show for who I’ve been
But somehow it seems you have taken me in
And you are home
Home
Home
I am a heap of bones
With a skeleton cage holding my heart
It’s my only one
It’s my only one
Be careful, it’s my only one

Pansy
02:36
|
|||
He had a frame like mine
And none were with half his fire
She was the fairest kind
With only his glance required
To see the smile behind her
Never alone beside her
I can’t begin to recognize what happened that night
How a look can kindle everything so fast without warning
Named for a flower the two of them, the man and his wife
Oh, but for the two of them, I’d not see a morning light
Chose her to fill his dreams
And gave her a new name
And covered her life with scenes
And they made a history
That no one had seen the likes of
Never alone beside her
I can’t begin to recognize what happened that night
How a look can kindle everything so fast without warning
Named for a flower the two of them, the man and his wife
Oh, but for the two of them, I’d not see a morning light
Oh, but for the two of them, I’d not see a morning light
Oh, but for the two of them, I’d not see a morning light
