We follow faded signs of you,
To see a picture perfect view
We find The stars painted in blue
Sunsets with a photo of you
Oh the couple downstairs fights
It keeps me up at night
Oh the lessons that i write
The same thing every night
Sunsets that you and i adore
But your whispers say much more
She kicks me out the door
Till i come back to her cold floor
Oh the couple downstairs fights
You give me one more night
Oh the lessons that i write
The same thing every night

how long is it gonna take?
wait for a month, wait for it to break
I know you tried to change it
I know because we were there just last week.
and each one's a mistake you made but we don't talk about it
hey, are you alone?
did you sit with it, just for a little while?
I hope each word feels just like a needle
and every time they say them that they dig deeper
take the day and do nothing about it;
next episode is dinner somewhere else
I tried so many times but
I just end up back on the shelf
and he's in perfect health
14 and losing sleep about it
not that bad, once it's in perspective
used to run like motorcycles
now we're leaving today, the first one without you
and I feel like I'm forgetting something but I'm not sure what
and I just feel like you changed nothing at all
and I'll have to move this one around
not right to do it right now
and you can blame your bad impression
on your lack of reason
but we see right through it
everyone does
and you can look like your dad
I'm tired of talking about it
and acting like I don't care
(sometimes it just isn't fair)
and each one's a battle of disregards
and you change nothing at all
each one's a battle of disregards
and I just say:

You wake up with the wind runnin circles through your hair
An your just so unaware
Of the way i used to play every single day
An i'd wonder what she'd say
But i'll just hang in there
You just in your underwear
Our lessons everywhere
Cryin in your grandmas chair
I can't explain the way i felt
Your fingers on myself
Just one of those days where i'd rather run away
But you'd make me wanna stay
Wind blows as the earth it slows
You dont wanna stay here
(Its wrong for us to feel this way
Yeah u realized that i cannot stay
Its wrong for us to feel this way
Heartache follows me away
Its wrong for us to feel this way
Grab my heart and run away)
(Behind the things that i say
Were really not okay
The couples have their fights
And they say theyll be alright
And you turn to me and say "We wont end up that way"
But who's to say we have a say
Every empty space in my heart
Is a place for us to start
Every empty space in my heart
Is a place for us to start)
But i'll just hang in there
You just in your underwear
Our lessons everywhere
Cryin in your grandmas chair

The Cog

If I don't defend your art
and I just accept it
then I'm just as bad
strung a lead over the rail
feet over the edge
down when you least expect
this can't be that bad,
where to go when there's no trail?
but I can't blame it on you
Even if that's what I do
and this is one we can do at the wedding
when you're tired and lilted or running on empty
I'm afraid that I'll actually do something
and choke on whatever comes after, following
I find space in the simple things, then
the barn and the cog, or something you'd bring
out of all the jokes that could've stuck with me
that is the one that you say to me
but I can't blame it on you
Even if that's what I do

laughing through your years of service
and crying under oath
waiting for the waves to come by
living through the radio
when I come back nothing different
nothing has changed
something comes up
and we all have to find out how to stay the same
I wish that we'd go back
But it's not enough
and it never was
I'm still trying hard to find the shape
the one that works
or the one that fits
but I just feel that it's all gone to waste
because it's not enough
and it never was
I still am trying hard to find the shape
the one that works
or the one that fits
but I just feel that we're always
laughing through your years of service
and crying under oath
waiting for the waves to come by
listen to the radio
when I get back nothing's different
nothing has changed
something comes out and we all have to stay the same
we can always change it back
get together and find some reason to go out and celebrate
lying on the floor
come back for more
so many days go and I can't find a way to leave it alone
lying on the floor
come back for more
give me a thousand reasons
but I just think that it should be left alone.
