Careening

Another song about falling into the night and out of control
Another song about crashing into the chaos, willing and bold
It's been said before
(But) I am feeling this for the first time, as far as I know
If we break, it's only temporary fall
If we break, it's only human after all
Careening (we will always stand)
Caught in. Frozen in motion. Stuck in suspense
What will my life look like at the end of what you're about to say
If we break, it's only temporary fall
If we break, it's only human after all
Careening (we will always be)
Falling into the night and out of control
Another song about crashing into the chaos, willing and bold
If we break, it's only temporary fall
If we break, it's only human after all
Careening (we will always stand)

Fall From Grace

See the stars
Close enough but halfway to never
Is heaven only in our minds?
Or is heaven close enough to find?
We already know this
If I fall from grace
Let me
Fall from grace
Torn apart
When parables clash with life's true wisdom
Is heaven the end for all we know?
Or is heaven a story we've been told?
We already know this
'Cause we've already lived this
If I fall from grace
Let me
Fall from grace
We already know this
'Cause we've already lived this
If I fall from grace
Let me
Fall from grace

River's Edge

Late encounter different scene
She's magnetic I'm intrigued
Newfound chemistry
My awakening
Weight of risking everything
Breaking promises at the river's edge
Riffles glistening under moonlight's shimmer
Breaking promises at the river's edge
Wade inside with me, let the current take us
Find a way to justify
Turn two wrongs into a right
I can hardly wait
It's already too late
Breaking promises at the river's edge
Riffles glistening under moonlight's shimmer
Breaking promises at the river's edge
Wade inside with me, let the current take us
Standing at the river's edge
This is indifferent, it's the way
The answer doesn't change
You should know better
But it's not that simple

Slowburn

It doesn't matter if you feel the same way
I'm gonna carry on feeling this anyway
The devil may care, I don't give a damn
What any of our friends are saying
Candy, so sweet, I'm addicted
But sometimes it tastes like poison
It feels like we have both been here before
In a co-dependent, slow-burning orbit
It feels like we will both be here again
And I'll never be ashamed to admit it
When I'm happy that you're well behind me
You come around again and you remind me
'Cause when I lose sight, I can hear your voice
Pulling me back on course
It feels like we have both been here before
In a co-dependent, slow-burning orbit
It feels like we will both be here again
And I'll never be ashamed to admit it

Days Like These

Do you ever feel like we have been here before?
The waves of recall continue to pull me under
Do you ever feel you're watching a shaky filmstrip
Of someone else's life – you wish you had?
And I hope, this time, the end is different
I can change it if I dive into it
I don't want to waste another day
Lost to time
Our lives slip away, sublime
It's so hard to appreciate or recognize
Days like these
Do you ever feel like this is a game of chance?
And that nothing we do has any significance?
Let's turn to tomorrow, the brave and the unafraid
We'll author every triumph and mistake
And I know, this time, the end is different
I can learn to live inside this moment
Where everything lives on
Lost to time
Our lives slip away, sublime
It's so hard to appreciate or recognize
Days like these
Though we always hope for second chances
There'll be no more time for long, last glances
